Chapter 81: 15,000 Army

Just looking at the 160 people in a company of line infantry and 120 people in a company of grenadiers, the difference is only 40 people, which is not much, but for a real war, if you want to form a strong battle line, you need at least 10 companies, and this time the number gap is 400 people!

However, in a battle, it is impossible to put into only one battle line, and the gap in numbers will undoubtedly widen further, and after a battle, who can guarantee how many battles it will take to end?

Therefore, Lin Haoda does not have a historical smashing point of hundreds of thousands of points, and he will never dare to play an all-elite war of attrition......

On the battlefield, whether it is a tall and mighty grenadier or an ordinary line infantry, it is the target of a lead bullet, and the number of troops is an important indicator of the strength of an army in the era of queuing to shoot!

This is also the reason why the outbreak of the national revolution in modern history will cause setbacks to the governments of European countries that have regular armies, and the simple flintlock pistol, which can be used even by children, has greatly narrowed the gap between civilians and professional soldiers from the level of weapon use, and the hit rate of flintlock pistols has also dwarfed the professional soldiers in improving the efficiency of killing......

Looking at it this way, it seems that it is not difficult to understand the reason why the newly formed National Guard Force was able to inflict such heavy casualties on the regular army......

When the gap in the use of weapons is infinitely narrowed, human thought and courage become crucial, and at some point can even bridge the huge gap between actual combat experience and training discipline!

In this street battle, Lin Haoda really understood the position of light infantry on the battlefield, and no longer planned to split it into a company situation, but took the battalion level as the basic combat unit, 5 light infantry companies, a company of 120 people, and a full strength of 600 people.

Because the light infantry was always in cover and behind cover in street fighting, and because most of the people who made up the National Guard were unprofessional mob fighters, the attack on the light infantry was often neglected, and the light infantry battalion now numbered more than 500 people.

Five or six hundred people form a standard battalion-level combat unit, covering and breaking off on the battlefield, and the firepower is enough to not cause a waste of numbers, this time, the formation of the light infantry battalion is completely fixed!

After compiling the existing troops, Lin Haoda finally set his sights back on the 10,000-point historical smashing point.

As an expensive vanguard unit, grenadiers are still very useful at critical moments, so let's start with 3,000 historical smashing points, and 12 companies will be organized into 3 pioneer grenadier battalions.

With 3 grenadier battalions, the consumption of maintaining an ordinary battle should be enough, of course, maintenance here refers to the careful entry of grenadiers into the battlefield as a cherished class!

Only in locations that are difficult for the line infantry to conquer, Lin Haoda will throw in grenadiers!

After all, the price of grenadiers is simply too expensive......

Dead three line infantry in exchange for a grenadier, Lin Haoda was reluctant......

Of course, war is not a simple mathematical calculation, and sometimes no amount of line infantry can replace the role of grenadiers!

After the 3,000-point historical smashing point disappeared, Lin Haoda had 12 more grenadier company cards on his account, a full 1,440 people!

The remaining 7000 historical smash points are naturally all exchanged for cheap line infantry that can withstand attrition!

As for the auxiliary arms of light infantry, as long as they are available, although they can kill and injure many enemies, but their effect on the enemy's morale is really limited, Lin Haoda has long seen the decisive factor in the victory or defeat of the war in this era - bayonet hand-to-hand combat!

Unless it's a salvo and artillery grapegre fire at close range, you can only rely on bayonets at close range to really break the morale of the enemy army!

Well, there are exceptions to the case where the enemy actively rushes into the encirclement of their own firepower......

A line infantry company is 100 historical smash points, and 7000 points is a full 70 companies; A line infantry company of 160 people, 70 companies that is 11,200 people!

Coupled with 1,440 grenadiers and remnants of less than 3,000 soldiers, Lin Haoda directly exceeded the 15,000 mark in the size of his army after exchanging cards!

And that's not even counting the cavalry card!

However, a cavalry company of less than 100 people is just an addition to an army of tens of thousands......

In any case, these forces are enough to start a small battle between countries!

This is Lin Haoda's confidence to dare to flip the table desperately!

However, Lin Haoda is not a brainless reckless man, if he can not oppose the whole of France, he still hopes to fight for his own interests, don't look at the scale of the more than 15,000 army, if you really fall out with the whole of France, Lin Haoda will not expand the army dozens of times in the future, it will be a proper defeat......

Naturally, France will not feel good after the victory, but if Lin Haoda loses his army, what does it mean to him no matter how big the enemy's losses are?

Therefore, out of pure interest and loss considerations, Lin Haoda must not completely fall out with France when he does not have absolute power!

More than 15,000 troops are enough for Lin Haoda to make the new French government jealous next.

After exchanging the class card, Lin Haoda did not summon it, more than 10,000 people are equivalent to more than 10,000 mouths, and they have to eat an extra day if they come out early, and the food cost is really ......

Although Lin Haoda's army captured some ammunition and food during the capture of the Paris City Hall, and it was still possible to support an army of more than 10,000 people in a short time, but now Lin Haoda has no future source of supplies, and the slower the consumption of the food and ammunition this accumulation, the better......

Of course, Lin Haoda plans to summon these card-based armies again when needed!

The food of more than 10,000 people, saving a day can be regarded as Lin Haoda's earning......

After redeeming the card, Lin Haoda pulled out the changed personal information panel, and it has become a cautious habit for Lin Haoda to understand his changed attributes anytime and anywhere.
