Chapter 213: The First Battle of the People's Liberation Army 6

There is nothing to say about the fact that hot weapons are certainly more advanced than cold weapons, after all, history has proven this. :3w.し

However, in the early days of the Age of Hot Weapons, or more precisely in the age of smoothbore guns, the gap between bows and muskets did not reach a geometric level. However, all political, military, and social problems are, in the final analysis, economic problems. The reason why muskets replaced bows and arrows is that muskets are more cost-effective than bows and arrows, both in terms of weapons and soldiers.

Of course, not to mention the scattered rookie soldiers of the investigation team who have been shot apart by the blossoming and bombing, they are not equipped with any long-range weapons in the first place. Even if they were really equipped with bows and arrows, without a few years of serious and hard training, their bows and arrows would basically not pose any threat to the Conservative Army.

What's more, they are really armed with bows and arrows, and have been training for several years. So in the course of the confrontation between the two sides, within the effective distance of 80 meters, whether the results of the People's Preservation Army using smoothbore Thunder Guns or the results of the Survey Corps using bows and arrows are still in between.

Taking 10,000 steps back means that the investigation team's troops have a higher hit rate. Those who wield bows and arrows were able to fire a few rounds of bows and arrows at most. After that, they will face a charge from the Conservative People's Army, armed with bayonets.

Of course, it's all just an imagination. The reality is that the People's Liberation Army is an all-firearms army, and the original investigation team is only equipped with long guns, and only a few of Chen Jianye's dart masters can use bows and arrows. And when they first encountered Huang Bochang's team, most of them had already thrown away their spears as a burden.

Therefore, the reality is that the rout soldiers of the investigation team, who were empty-handed and nervously broken by the flowering bombs, ran towards Lu Yuanhao's team in such a panic.

In the queue to shoot tactics, whoever shoots first is unlucky. Maximizing the power of platoon guns is the core content of line tactics. When Wang Shuhui explained the linear tactics to everyone in the military school, he used the English lobster soldiers as an example to tell the military cadres of the Wuchang dispatch team: The real strong soldiers who line up to shoot tactics will not shoot until they are at least 20 meters away from the enemy.

In fact, Wang Shuhui also gave a detailed explanation to everyone. He felt that it was unlikely that China would produce such good soldiers at present, so he asked the military cadres of the dispatch team to train the rebel soldiers as long as they could shoot within a range of 50 meters.

Such a request, under normal circumstances, everyone will follow Wang Shuhui's ordinary requirements. However, it is obvious that Lu Yuanhao, who already has the signs of militarism in his head, will not demand himself according to the distance of fifty meters.

When training the soldiers of the People's Liberation Army under his command, Lu Yuanhao has always used the training of the strongest soldiers in the world to demand himself and the soldiers under his command.

Based on the early training experience of the Baxing Army, he specially organized a group of children to constantly interfere with the marching troops during the training. The children kept throwing feces, animal entrails, rotten vegetables, fruits, rocks, and other things at the soldiers.

Lu Yuanhao's persistence was not without results. From the very beginning, everyone vomited and collapsed, and then became indifferent and turned a blind eye. Lu Yuanhao trained his soldiers into the strong soldiers he imagined.

However, judging from the first actual battle, Lu Yuanhao was still quite annoyed in his heart. After all, when facing a living, violent and desperate enemy, a soldier who performed well in training was still timid.

However, the training was not without results.

Under the command of officers at all levels, the Second Brigade of the People's Liberation Army led by Lu Yuanhao performed well. None of them fired from outside the allotted distance. It was only when the soldiers of the investigation team rushed to a distance of about thirty meters from them that they raised their rifles firmly under the command of the officer.

A three-stage blow killed more than 200 people. A volley of guns at close range in dense crowds. The effect of this is very obvious.

If you observe from the sky above the battlefield at this time, the dense charge of the routs of the survey group seems to have been pushed up by an invisible shield. Just when the soldiers of the People's Liberation Army raised their rifles with bayonets on their orders and were about to start a counter-charge, the rout of the investigation group, which had been in a certain state of rage, seemed to be awakened by more than 200 corpses at once.

They didn't even look at the soldiers of the 2nd Brigade of the People's Liberation Army, who raised their bayonets and began to move closer, they suddenly reflected collectively and regained their rookie nature. They turned around again and began to run away in even more frantic gestures.

We must say that there is not much room for them to maneuver this time.

In addition to the 2nd Brigade of the National People's Liberation Army, which was moving forward with guns raised behind them, they were fronted by an array of the 1st Brigade of the National People's Liberation Army, which was constantly approaching them in a very tight line.

These routs had barely regained twenty or thirty paces before they ran headlong into the dense baronets.

A battle of annihilation between more than 1,200 people against more than 600 people (more than 200 were killed by platoon guns and more than 100 by artillery) began in this valley.

On the battlefield, the death of a coward is very hopeless. In fact, to some extent, the battle between the 1st and 2nd brigades of the CNPA against the units of the Survey Mission was more of a massacre than a battle. The mission force is said to be a force rather than a group of civilians.

With the enemy on both sides, few of these 600 people thought of fleeing to the slopes on both sides. Like rats in bellows blocked on both sides, they left their backs to the enemy in despair, and were stabbed to death with bayonets by the Pédicative Army soldiers behind them, face to face.

All the cadres of the Renaissance Army who participated in this battle found this battle very boring. The enemy was very rubbish, and the Conservative Army completed the action in strict accordance with the training requirements. Apart from the panic shown by individual soldiers and officers, the 1,200 CNPA did not even have a single wounded.

Although in the eyes of the military cadres of the Baath Army, the first battle of the People's Liberation Army basically did not have anything worthy of attention. However, this overwhelming victory over the "pro-military battalion" of the new governor of Huguang (Yao Zongwen really thought so) greatly encouraged the whole army of the people.

They used to only vaguely think that their combat power was very strong in their daily training. Now, with reality as a basis, the Wuchang Baomin Army has begun to formally establish a comprehensive psychological advantage over the regular army of the Ming Dynasty.

In the future battles, under the leadership of the 1st and 2nd Brigades of the Baomin Army, which experienced the first battle, the Baomin Army won numerous victories against the troops of the Ming Dynasty
