The Hun cavalry still had their advantage, their main weapon was the bow and arrow, followed by the scimitar. This is still the cavalry in the village to limit the speed, otherwise, the strength of the two battalions may not be able to get a good advantage.

"We use arquebuses, these arquebuses are powerful, but the range of the shot is still too close, just within their range, fifty paces away, the bullet is basically hit, which is not accurate, but the Huns are within fifty paces, they can still accurately shoot our hit rate. And the arquebuses, those damned arquebuses suddenly revealed the position of our musketeers, and the archers shot at once. Many people were hit while shooting, and sometimes, the arquebus went out. But just when I was shooting, alas, it was really depressing. Sir. The major reported. Zhang Xian calmly recorded it.

The problem with arquebuses is still very big. The first is that his range is too close, and the weight of the musket is still relatively heavy, so the movement of raising the gun is relatively slow. Compared to those Hun archers, they were nimble and light. They are in a disadvantaged position. And that's not all.

There is also a trigger device for the arquebus, and the musketeers have to keep an eye on the condition of the musket and the arquebus, and in the heat of battle, once the arquebus is extinguished, it is a catastrophe. In this battle. They have been in such a situation many times, and the result is very tragic. The Republican casualties were not small, largely because of the muskets.

In spear combat, the Republican Army has a certain advantage, first of all, they are fighting in groups of three, with tacit understanding, plus their spears have the advantage of weapons, which gives them a certain advantage. But alas, the Huns reacted quickly, they just did not engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Republican army, but only shot with bows and arrows. The two sides are largely caught in such an impasse.

Zhang Xian recorded these helplessly, and he could only pat the other party's shoulder to comfort him. In order to get rid of these Hun cavalry, they first improved the arquebus, the arquebus will be lighter, or use flintlock pistols, but unfortunately, the number of such flintlock pistols is too small, only a small number of officers have, and only a few officers in their brigade have such weapons, most of them still use equipment such as arquebuses, bulky, slow, and unstable arquebuses, which have led to an increase in casualties. Thinking of this, his heart was dripping blood. Something like this will cost them a lot.

"The cannon will come, wait for the cannon. Lao Tzu killed those beasts. Zhang Xian scolded fiercely. It was the first time the IRA had encountered their firearms, which had become a disadvantage to the burden.

War is inherently a transformation between strength and weakness, and it is unlikely that the Republican Army will take advantage of all the advantages and advantages. They need to adjust themselves in battle, and only by being good at correcting their mistakes can they maintain a strong victory posture in the war, and this is the secret of the Republican Army's victory in combat. The Republican Army had to wait for their artillery to arrive before launching a large-scale offensive against them.

Tulingzi, this is the only commanding height thirty miles north of Baili, and it is a high point accumulated because of the perennial riverbed rushing, and this commanding height is only three zhang high. The blind infantry company was sent here. They were heading north to search for. Although there were some losses at first. Two people were injured. They didn't suffer a big loss, but they didn't get into a fight, which annoyed them.

Then the order came. Let them establish defensive positions on the spot to prevent massive reinforcements from the Hun cavalry from the north. They want them to be. Intercept a large cavalry, you can spare a small cavalry.

This is a very vague command. This makes it difficult for Zhang Blind to understand. He didn't know what was big and what was small, because thirty miles away, they didn't know that the battle of Baili had begun. They are the closest interception point to the north.

"I'm telling you, with our Republican Army, you're going to have a good day." Zhang Zhen enthusiastically explained the policy and the glorious combat history of the Republican Army to the 36 recruits recruited halfway. Scholars will just say that those things that are not worth mentioning in the eyes of the veteran actually sound as if they have done a great thing, and the veteran blushes when he hears it.

For example, the dumpling soup, that kind of deliciousness, the recruits who said it were drooling. Although the recruits ate hard compressed biscuits, which were a little sweet and salty, they could be filled, and many of them did not have enough to eat, most of them were orphans, and their parents were long gone. Listening to Zhang Zhen, joining the republican army is not only full of food, but in the eyes of veterans, the particularly unpalatable dry food has become their best food, and they are speechless.

Not only can you have enough to eat, but you can also divide the land, and if you don't want to plant, you can hand it over to the bank, and you can get money from the bank every month. If you build up military merits, you will be given more land. This kind of life, what kind of life, isn't this the life of the masters, they have seen it, those masters do it like this. Zhang Zhen also told them that with the Republican Army, daughters-in-law are not a problem, they are all singles. If it weren't for the Republican Army, they would have been singles for the rest of their lives, the temptation of women, a full stomach, plus there were fields, it didn't matter if they died, and there were orphans who followed their names. What kind of church to enter. In short, he is a hero and a hero. They don't want to spend their lives in the bag. Being bullied and having white eyes is very uncomfortable, and this is the only way for them to regain their dignity. Thirty-six men followed the IRA to the battlefield. They had to follow some veterans, all corporals, sergeants, to fight. Many of them are destitute and afraid.

"Little scholar. Come here, you show me what's going on. The blind man shouted Zhang Zhen, and Zhang Zhen stopped explaining. This was a bit of a disappointment for the recruits, because they were looking forward to a better life.

"Boy, don't sigh, wait for the fight, don't cramp your legs and stomach, you can't walk, you are this." A veteran said with a smile and a thumbs up.

"What is this, we're going to cut off the heads of those dog-day Huns." A young man stood up and said. The veteran smiled and shook his head, looking at their weak little bodies. They felt that this was impossible because they did not have enough to eat for a long time. Plus when they are in a long body, malnutrition makes them look emaciated, and it seems that a gust of wind will blow them down and make them fight. However, in order to show respect for them, Zhang Blind Man gave each of them a spear and two hands**. Two hands** make them look struggling. These recruits' weapons are like that, they have to fight with such simple weapons, it seems that they are very unreliable.

"Sir, I think what the sir means is that let's give up the cavalry units that only have a few hundred people, but once the Huns' cavalry exceeds a thousand people, such as two thousand, we must withstand it." Zhang Zhen said.

"Thousands of people. Oh. I know. The blind man looked at the report in his hand and nodded. He knew that this battle was not easy to fight. A few thousand people, so that they are less than two hundred people to live here, which means that the whole company may not be able to come up.

He knew that in the small river beach blockade battle, it was difficult for a regiment's troops to stare at Huangfu Song to go south, they could withstand it, but how long they could withstand it, and how many people would be alive in the end. Zhang Blind couldn't say clearly.

"That. You. You take a few people, those recruits, and let them follow you to get some weapons. Zhang Blind thought of this and said. This time, they all brought their own equipment. But to hold out longer, they have to have more supplies to do that.

"This. Sir. Zhang Zhen knew that they would encounter a fierce battle next, and he didn't want to leave. He listened to a lot of battle stories. He knew that the IRA was a formidable force, and as he told the stories of the battles, he himself was changing. He didn't know when the flesh had changed a lot.

"Listen. The battle will be very hard. I know. Let's even do it, maybe there won't be. Zhang Blind said.

"Sir." Zhang Zhen looked at his company commander, and the company commander was very good to him. It's like a brother who treats him well. He couldn't watch something happen to his brother.

"Don't say it. Our wolf company has just been established. The chief said that as long as we develop well, we can expand the organization. Lao Tzu dreams of such things, you are the hope of our company, you kid, educated, can fight. Able to speak. Write reports. Let's go wolf. Definitely capable of doing great things. Those dolls, and those veterans, are our seeds. Leave the seeds, let's wolf company. You can't be killed, you can't be defeated. Our establishment is still there. Zhang Blind said.

"Company commander." Zhang Zhen said anxiously.

"Alright, don't say it. Your little mother-in-law's. Get out, hurry up and get out of Lao Tzu. Zhang Blind scolded. Zhang Zhen wanted to say it, but he was kicked away by Zhang Blind. Blind Zhang knew that this battle was not easy to fight, and it might not even be even gone. He couldn't watch his company go away. He loves his company, and he has to leave a seed for his company. Leave the seed so that his company can exist.

Many people looked at the forty-two people who had left, and they had been sent to get supplies. Other soldiers on the position were busy building fortifications. No one gave them a farewell, but Zhang Zhen was the last to leave. Many people don't know why he cried like a child. Tears kept coming. It was a really hard feeling. Especially the recruits, they had no idea what kind of fierce battle the company would face.
