Lin Ziran set up a posture in Nanguang City, waiting for the Guangnan people to go south.

The Second Army of Guang'an led by Li Kun also did not have the slightest timidity, and even prepared to go south in a high-priced battle, and when its heavy artillery units and the main force of infantry were still in Chongguangcheng, a large number of its cavalry troops had already entered the plain area south of Chongguangcheng, and frequently appeared outside Nanguang City for reconnaissance.

"These Guang'an people are very arrogant!" Lin Ziran looked at a few sporadic Guang'an scouts outside the city galloping quickly on war horses, and snorted coldly: "You dare to approach within three hundred meters!" ”

Lin Ziran turned back to Scar: "Organize some good hands and aim for Lao Tzu!" ”

Scar immediately said: "Humble obedience!" ”

Immediately, Scar quickly gathered his men, and he temporarily dispatched dozens of soldiers with more accurate marksmanship from various units to prepare to hunt down those bold Guang'an scouts.

Soon, gunfire gradually appeared on the top of the city, not uniform and dense gunfire, but sporadic gunfire, but it was continuous.

After the gunfire rang out intermittently, in the Guang'an reconnaissance cavalry team more than 300 meters outside the city, Bao Qiyuan immediately turned the horse's head without saying a word, and at the same time urged the war horse to gallop quickly towards the rear, and when he ran quickly towards the rear, he was still walking in a zigzag line, but did not run straight towards the rear.

At the same time, I kept cursing the officer who led the team in my mind!

He had long said that he could not ride a horse to reconnoiter so openly, even if he only had a few people, and spread out and maneuvered at high speed, the other party would certainly not waste shells for a few of them, and it was difficult to hit the scouts.

But the infantry is not afraid to waste bullets!

He knew the Luo Anjun on the other side, and he had fought it, it was Lin Ziran's men and horses, and he also knew that Lin Ziran had a lot of hunters under him, and the effective range could even exceed 400 meters.

But the captain of the cavalry squad didn't listen, and said that he Bao Qiyuan was timid and afraid of death!

Lao Tzu is afraid of death? Joke!

When Lao Tzu followed Lord Fang Yuan and Master Fang Fang deep behind the enemy to attack the logistics line of the Luo An Army, you were still shrinking in the hinterland of the rear.

It's a pity that I heard that Lord Fang offended his superiors and was demoted, and their cavalry regiments were all split, otherwise he wouldn't have been transferred here.

The captain did not listen to his advice, believing that the distance of more than three hundred meters was safe enough.

But now it's stupid!

Bao Qiyuan rode his horse and galloped wildly, while secretly despising it.

But at this time, there was a huge impact behind him, followed by severe pain.

The force of the impact and the pain made him unable to stay on the horse at high speed, and he fell directly from the horse's back, and then slammed into the ground, his whole body continued to roll, and then he felt a heavy blow to his head, which plunged him into complete darkness.

Before he fell into darkness, he had a thought in his head: "It's over...... Killed by that stupid captain. ”

The stupid captain in his mouth ran wildly all the way, but in the end he could not escape the covering shot of dozens of marksmans, more than 300 meters, which was within the best killing range for a Minnie rifle.

It is difficult to aim at a distance, and if you are close, you will not be able to give full play to the range advantage of the Mini rifle.

Because in the training manuals of the supplementary brigade, there are different ranges for different targets and different situations, and if it is an attack on a large area target, such as the enemy's line infantry phalanx, covering shooting is often adopted, and the effective range can reach more than 400 meters.

However, if you want to get a higher hit, this distance is often reduced to 350 meters.

If it is less than 200 meters, the enemy will be able to rush up and shorten the distance because the distance is too close.

Therefore, the optimal range of the Mini rifles of the supplementary brigade in large-scale combat is between 200 and 350 meters.

Even if it is difficult to aim at a small target, it can still be hit by fire coverage, and if one shot is not enough, ten shots, a hundred shots, even if it depends on probability.

Whether it was Bao Qiyuan or the stupid captain in his mouth, they all died under the guns of the supplementary brigade like this.

In order to kill the Guang'an scout cavalry, who only had about ten horses, Luo Mazi took more than 80 people with the best marksmanship to shoot in turns, and there were even people behind them to help them load, and the shooting method of changing guns without changing people made each of them shoot five or six bullets in just half a minute.

Although he couldn't leave all of them behind, he also killed the five of them, effectively deterring these arrogant Guang'an scouts.

In this regard, Lin Ziran looked at the soldiers with a smile: "Okay, it seems that the brothers have not wasted time in training, very good, the brothers who participated in the task will be rewarded with half a month's salary!" ”

Although the small battle just now was small, it was the first battle between the supplementary brigade and the second army of Guang'an, and it was necessary to take this opportunity to boost morale.

After a few of the Guang'an scouts were killed, they converged a lot, and most of them still stopped a few kilometers away and did not move forward, although the small group of troops would also come forward, but they all secretly took advantage of the terrain to get closer, but they didn't have the courage to ride their horses directly and walked forward.

To this!

Lin Ziran said: What do you like, I don't care to see you in general.

Even if he wanted to meet these Guang'an cavalrymen, he couldn't do it.

The Guang'an cavalry dispatched by a cavalry regiment was dispatched by a few hundred cavalry, and Lin Ziran only had one hundred and fifty hussars and more than two hundred dragoons, which added up to not as many as a cavalry regiment.

If it is not pleasing to the eye to look at the cavalry regiment thousands of meters outside the city, there is no way.

It is impossible to fight, and no one wants to die in vain!

At most, it is to send some dragoons to engage in kite tactics, but this is aimed at the scattered cavalry of Guang'an, and they will not take the initiative to go thousands of meters to play with the enemy's brigade of cavalry.

Kite tactics sound wonderful, but in terms of the quality of the cavalry of the 2nd Cavalry Company and the horses, it is still too difficult to fight with the traditional light cavalry.

Because when they stopped and fired three hundred meters away on Shayang horses, the hussars came directly with a charge, and when they got closer, they could easily kill the second cavalry company, whether with a six-round revolver or simply with a saber.

So at most, it is to send a small number of elite dragoons to fight a dozen scattered reconnaissance cavalry of the enemy, and if you have the opportunity to shoot a shot, you can run away, and if you don't have a chance, it's just like that.

Let them toss on their own!

Anyway, the Nanguang defense line is not a secret defense line, and many Guang'an people know about it, such as the deployment location of artillery, there are two main batteries that can deploy heavy artillery, and other places are basically impossible to deploy.

And this person from Guang'an knew about it a few years ago.

After waiting for the Guang'an cavalry outside the city to toss for another two days, the main force of the Guang'an people finally arrived!
