The mercenaries, who have been completely defeated by the senior Swedish musketeers, still have the slightest courage to resist under the offensive launched by the hand-to-hand combat troops under Shu Zifeng?

The mercenaries, who were far more numerous than the aristocratic guards and the supervising soldiers, quickly rolled back the supervising team behind, and the charge of Shu Zifeng's hand-to-hand combat soldiers undoubtedly accelerated the speed of the mercenary collapse!

The musket team formed by the people of Dehrim put the arquebus back on their backs, and in both hands they held long-handled two-handed battle axes with outstanding armor-piercing ability, wearing nail armor blouses or chain mail, like the Viking two-handed axe warriors of the Middle Ages, frantically slaughtered to the end of the mercenary retreat, causing a series of tragedies......

The warrior battalion, which is not much weaker than the leading people's musket team, is holding an infantry spear more than four meters long, running and constantly aiming at the mercenaries......

The cannon fodder of the first camp once again carried forward the advantage of the pig rush charge, there was no formation and no organizational discipline, as long as it was not his own people, it was a fancy-free hack to catch up, and there were even a lot of 'perverts' who abused the corpses......

Some people, after being oppressed for a long time, tend to show a perverted and abusive side to the more vulnerable groups to satisfy their own pleasure of revenge.

On the battlefield, the oppressed and driven cannon fodder soldiers who first ascended to the camp expressed their dissatisfaction by torturing and killing the enemy.

"Rubbish! Rubbish! They should all be sent to the gallows, these cowards don't deserve to be God's people!! ”

The Rostov commander cursed incoherently, his eyes were full of bloodshots, and he ordered the surrounding noble generals: "All the reserves are on top of me, and you must stop the retreat for me, otherwise even if we don't die here today, Moscow City will not spare us!" ”

Immediately afterwards, the Commander-in-Chief of Rostov turned to the noble cavalry general and ordered: "You take all the cavalry troops and go straight to the enemy army with the largest number but scattered formation and the worst equipment, they should be cannon fodder temporarily pulled up in the rebel bandit army."

After breaking through, defeat that group of scum, and then envelop them to sweep the entire rebel bandit army's offensive array, our forces have an advantage, as long as we can stop the rebel bandits' offensive, in the face of the rebel bandits who have lost their defensive formation in the attack, we can turn defeat into victory! ”

With the Rostov commander-in-chief issuing a reasonable order, the huge Rostov main army formation suddenly began to move rapidly, occupying one-third of the number of elite reserves is the confidence of the Rostov commander, although the strength of the army in the war is not an absolute factor, but it is a very important basis for victory.

Among Shu Zifeng's troops, only the hundred-horse heavy armored musketeers and Swedish senior musketeers led by Shu Zifeng himself did not charge.

Sweden's senior musketeers are because their shooting ability exceeds their melee ability, and Shu Zifeng is the commander in charge, and he will not end easily until the last resort, because once Shu Zifeng is caught in battle, he cannot unify the command of the troops, which means that the army under his command is in a dilemma of fighting separately.

The Swedish veteran musketeers did not sit idle, collecting the flintlock pistols and ammunition of their fallen comrades and placing them in the camp behind, and then regrouping the team.

The Swedish veteran musketeers relied on discipline and organization to win, and the losses in the shots were not small, and it was very useful to reorganize and restore combat effectiveness.

Shu Zifeng rode on the war horse, looking at Gustav's impromptu response and efficient and skillful reorganization with satisfaction, and once again improved his evaluation of the Swedish senior musket regiment in his heart.

Soldiers are not afraid of death and strictly abide by discipline, and the commander also has the ability to quickly reorganize in response to the war, and has a deep control over the troops, it can be said that Gustav, a colonel, has his own military ability to lead musketeers has surpassed that of Bandak and Leonida, who are better at training soldiers.

Since ancient times, it has been difficult to find a thousand troops, and the value of a professional military talent like Gustav is undoubtedly higher than that of a senior Swedish musketeer.

Fortunately, Colonel Gustav is different from the Swedish Gustav the Great in history, he is an orthodox commander, and he will not take the lead in recklessness, and the survival rate on the battlefield is undoubtedly greatly improved.

Whether officers should be on the front line has always been a difficult problem for European armies to hesitate, and the leadership of officers can undoubtedly greatly improve the combat morale of soldiers, and in the era of queuing to shoot, morale is an important data that determines the combat effectiveness of the army!

But it is easy for officers to lead the team to die, and it is not easy for the modern army that relies on high-quality officers to replenish the officers, not to mention, most of the officers are from the nobility, with the population of the aristocracy, can they afford to die?

It is precisely because of this contradiction that the countries of the European continent later had an unwritten unspoken rule on the battlefield, which did not aim at the enemy officers and drummers in the shooting, and once the officers were killed in pieces just after the battle, the armies of the two sides would inevitably be in a mess, and when the time came, let alone line up to be shot, the soldiers who lost the restraint of the officers would only be mixed up and not know what to do, or even retreat directly!

If this kind of thing happens, it will be very embarrassing for the warring parties, and before they can fight much, the army will collapse, and it will be very difficult to replenish the officers, and it will not be possible to directly promote the soldiers.

Then the officers died again in droves, falling into an embarrassing cycle......

Of course, this contradiction was improved later after the mass popularization of military academies and the beginning of the replenishment of civilian officers into the army, and the unspoken rule of not shooting officers on the battlefield naturally disappeared.

The first to break this unspoken rule was the American Revolutionary War, and the most rampant time period for shooting officers was during the Napoleonic Wars, because Napoleon never paid attention to gentlemanly etiquette and conventions, and his favorite thing to do was to break the convention......

Later, the British also followed the same example, formed the Green Jacket Skirmishers, specializing in hunting French officers, because the Green Jacket was equipped with advanced rifled guns, which caused Napoleon to be annoyed and issued a death order to hunt down the Green Jacket - all the Green Jackets caught were sentenced to death, don't underestimate this order, the British Army was forced to ban the establishment of the Green Jacket unit because of Napoleon's military order......

Just when Shu Zifeng's mind was spinning the idea of how to give full play to Gustav's potential, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves pulled it back to reality, and the scale of the aristocratic cavalry group that had been staying in the rear suddenly made Shu Zifeng's face become embarrassed!
