Chapter 600: Sandwich Battlefield
Zhang Qiang couldn't help but smile when he saw this moment when he inspected the battlefield from the eagle's eye.
Behind Tian Bin's troops were 50,000 or 60,000 Mongolian cavalry that would definitely not be able to beat, and behind Duolong were 6,000 cavalry that Duolong was afraid of, the Fourth Cavalry Brigade of the Huaxia Army, and the cavalry brigade belonging to the Xuanyuan Longfei Legion.
The cavalry brigade of the Huaxia Army has not changed much until now, three cavalry regiments form a cavalry brigade, each cavalry regiment has 200 scout cavalry, 1,800 cavalry, 800 lancers, 1,000 dragoons, plus the personal guards of the commander and deputy brigade commander of the cavalry brigade of 200 to 300 and the two of them, as well as the personal guard of the commander of the cavalry regiment and himself, in fact, a cavalry brigade has about 6,200 to 6,400 people, all of whom have war horses.
The lancers had spears for sprinting, sabers for slashing enemies, daggers for marching or hand-to-hand combat to take out close enemies, and a short musket for self-defense, using the tactics of the chasseers.
The cavalry of the cavalry brigade is not the cavalry of the infantry brigade, the cavalry of the infantry brigade is mainly used to chase and kill or be used as a scout to spy on the enemy, so it is equipped with dragoons and lancers, and some may be equipped with defeat chassars, but they are mainly dragoons, dragoons have long arquebuses, which are used to implement cavalry line line shooting tactics, and the chasers mainly wear long swords, short swords, and goose feathers, with hunting bows on their bodies, and short fire guns hanging on their horses, three, used to fly the enemy's infantry kites, The Shotgun is mainly used to compensate for the long reload time of the musket when melee with the enemy.
That is, the cavalry of the infantry brigade is generally used as an auxiliary role, equipped with chasseurs, and there are also some lancers and dragoons, but mainly chases.
The cavalry of the cavalry brigade, like the elite cavalry, is also equipped with three- to six-pounder cannon squads, which are used as a last resort to use cavalry to siege cities, or to fight positional warfare.
These cannons were specially made and could be carried on horseback, and the cavalry squad had two more horses than the other cavalry, one to tow heavy supplies, mainly ammunition and shells, and one to tow the cavalry regiment and their own luggage and supplies, or other surplus supplies.
In other words, the cavalry regiment of the cavalry brigade does not need logistical baggage supplies, and they can march thousands of miles with supplies for as little as five days or as much as a month to start a pursuit and killing battle with the enemy.
Easy to maneuver.
Such a force is qualified to be feared by Duolong, and Duolong has also been defeated by such a cavalry many times, not to mention that there is a field brigade of the Huaxia Army behind the cavalry brigade, and the field brigade of the Huaxia Army is now prestigious, and there is no force in the world that is not afraid, because they have all suffered the losses of the field brigade.
In this way, Duolong's troops and Tian Bin's troops were caught by the opponent's troops, and neither side was willing to get out of the way, let the other side pass, and escape this catastrophe, and then we waited for the reinforcements from both sides to come, and we had another decisive battle here, and they had to solve the opponent first.
As for the rest of the matter, whoever can see it accurately may not wait for the enemy's reinforcements to arrive, or his own reinforcements will be defeated by the opponent.
After knowing this, Duolong was not calm, and immediately sent the Manchu generals and guards around him to supervise the battle, and there was no time to play waiting, playing consumption, and playing tactics, so let's do it hard.
A group of three people, hiding, shining, walking on the country road, from time to time walking on the paved stones, and pouring a layer of earth-based cement mixed with earth, lime, glutinous rice cakes, etc.
This makes the road have the appearance of cement, and there is the hardness of stones, although it is not too beautiful, it can walk up a big car, stable and strong, and it is not a foot, the key is to accelerate the speed of pedestrians running on the road, far faster than the dirt road, much cleaner than the dirt road, because the Ming Dynasty does not have the kind of car weighing dozens of tons in later generations, even if there is a carriage for transportation, it will definitely not exceed a few tons of weight, this weight is more than enough for this low-level road, this is the change that Zhang Qiang brought to this era.
Can't say how advanced it is, how advanced, but it's definitely convenient.
And with the increase of R&D personnel, mainly the Huaxia Army has added other industry examinations on the basis of the imperial examination, 360 lines, there are examinations in all walks of life, and low-level personnel can get a government-certified industry qualification certificate, with these certificates, you can engage in research in related industries, and sell the results of research to the government, and the government pays a certain amount of money to buy the research results.
This is the industry national certification qualification certificate, with this certificate is like a scholar admitted to the child's life, is an honor, in the village can also get the village chief or the chief, the township chief's reception, and let everyone look up to you, in these low-level administrative positions, you can also get a lot of income, as well as a basic monthly salary.
The people in the village read a letter, recognize a word, or build something, find an authoritative certification, and look for you, or the things you take out are sold at a higher price than those who have not been certified, and you have to find you to settle accounts and deal with the government.
Zhang Huangyan walked all the way, and when he passed through the countryside, he learned about these things through the mouth of the young man who led the way.
Low-level certifications don't require you to be literate or read, as long as you can get something out of your hands in the industry and get government approval.
In addition, you can obtain the qualification to attend adult night classes for free, and if you graduate from night school, that is, you know ten Arabic numerals and know more than 100 words, you can take the qualification level 2 exam.
These exams are focused on the best in the industry, and if you can speak the whole story of farm work, and record it with the help of others, and you can understand some of it yourself, you will be able to obtain a Level 2 qualification.
These people were requisitioned by the government to help solve problems such as going to the countryside to count the amount of farmland, how much was produced, how much iron was produced, how much iron could be made in a day, whether some things made by carpenters met the standards set by the government, and to help the government solve the tasks of contacting people in these industries.
Of course, these people don't have to receive a salary, they will pay you when they are requisitioned, and when they are not requisitioned, you will still do your old job, and the government will give priority to using your things.
When you want to go one step closer, the government has launched a three-level qualification certification, these people must be able to speak and write, these people are generally some veterans or businessmen, government veterans, or industry leaders who have been famous for a long time, some of them are directly requisitioned by the government to give a clerk, these clerks have more than half of the time to work in the government, called the bottom clerk of the government.
They have no possibility of being promoted to government civil servants, but they can assist the government in doing things, and even put forward some good suggestions and develop good things.
The fourth level is often those who have read books, and have a deep knowledge in the industry, they also have a heart to be an official, they will generally be arranged as clerks first, pass the official examination, become the official office clerk, the clerk can be promoted, can be promoted to the clerk, clerk, book and other positions, equivalent to the township head, the town mayor's auxiliary personnel.
These people who can read and study the skills of various professions will eventually become deputy township heads, deputy town heads, or research far-reaching, and this is the end of the bureaucracy, and the researchers can be selected into the government research institutes of various industries, become more senior officials, can take the imperial examination, and then enter the higher research institutes.
This is Zhang Qiang's cultivation of talents for many intelligent scientific personnel in his hands.
