Count Badajoth's very realistic speculation made him underestimate the combat capabilities of these blue-clad troops in front of him.
The previous Chaos Orcs and a few Chaos Humans were planted in each other's hands, and in the eyes of Count Badajoth, it was just because the Federation people bullied more and relied on firearms to be sharp.
In fact, the Chaos Humans were well aware of the power of muskets and artillery, and knew that they were much better than the cold weapons they used.
From the Chaos Human Knights to the ordinary Chaos Human Warriors, the armor is all gorgeous, but it is light and thin because the Chaos Humans are afraid of the muskets of the Federation!
They found that no matter how heavy the armor was, it was useless to fire at close range from the Federation's firearms, let alone more powerful artillery.
Later, the Chaos Humans simply gave up the heavy armor, and the reason why they still retained the armor was just a symbol of status.
After all, knight armor and noble armor are the long-standing traditional symbols of chaotic human beings, and after they no longer have protective power, the armor can be made more gorgeous and beautiful, just like the prop armor in the film and television dramas in Wang Ziming's previous life.
Looking mighty and domineering on the screen, if you really use a knife to cut, you can guarantee a hole!
As for the actors in Wang Ziming's previous life, if he really wears the ancient 100% simulated general Kai, let alone acting, he can walk normally and be considered strong!
The current chaotic human beings have taken the route of Wang Ziming's costume actors in his previous life, and the armor is more powerful and domineering than the other, but the defense power is about zero, which is not much different from wearing a cloth suit.
However, knowing the benefits of firearms is well known, and it is very difficult for Chaos Humans to use the firearms of the Federation.
I don't know if it's because of the belief in the chaos gods, chaotic humans instinctively like bloody hand-to-hand combat, and their adaptability to long-range weapons is extremely low, and it often takes several times more energy to practice long-range weapons, and the effect is not good!
Of course, this is limited to the use of long-range weapons by Chaos Humans, it does not mean that they do not have long-range attack means, as long as Chaos Humans break through the 5th level, they will master the ability to control the flame to kill the enemy, the higher the level, the stronger the lethality of the flame, and eventually it can even evolve into an abyssal hellfire!
This is the long-range attack method that Chaos humans are best at, of course, there are other long-range attacks, but basically not through weapons, but through magic.
Chaos humans can be regarded as hand-to-hand warriors who have mastered a certain amount of magical attack ability, and they are quite versatile, otherwise they would not have become the dominant group in the dangerous continent of Obarro.
In addition to the fact that Chaos Humans are not good at using firearms, demonic creatures also have a hard time shooting with firearms.
Rather than a straight slash, pulling the trigger and the complicated reloading steps are enough to blind the Chaos Orcs......
The Chaos Humans have long discovered that it is far more difficult to train the Chaos Orcs to use muskets than it is to train them to fight with cold weapons, and as for the other demonized creatures, they simply refuse to use muskets with complicated operations, they believe in their own physical strength!
It has even reached the realm of blind faith!
Of course, considering the intelligence level of the demonized creatures, it is also understandable......
In addition to the above reasons, the biggest obstacle to arming firearms for the Chaos Humans is that they do not have an industrial system to produce guns.
The civilization in which the Chaos Humans live is extremely backward, similar to the early Middle Ages in Europe, where the iron smelting technology is not up to par, let alone the creation of firearms!
They don't even know the recipe for black powder!
Naturally, it is difficult for Chaos Humans to build muskets, and Chaos Humans with their fierce nature do not have the heart to learn how to craft firearms.
As for ordinary white people, they are regarded as two-legged sheep by the chaotic humans, as long as the chaotic humans don't make mistakes in their brains, how can ordinary whites master the method of building firearms?
If ordinary white people have weapons that can threaten the Chaos Humans, ninety percent of them are likely to rebel!
In other words, whose children are forcibly 'pickled' as a blood tax to be taken away, they will also accumulate a sea of blood feuds!
Because of this, even though the Federalists used the white natives of the Obaro continent as slaves, the white natives still revered the Confederates as liberators.
Compared to the chaotic humans who demanded blood taxes, being enslaved or something was nothing in the eyes of the white natives.
Even if the white native girls want to go out to serve those old federal men, they will be obedient, at least the girls can be exchanged for rations after serving, and they will not be eaten!
You must know that none of the girls who were taken away by the white natives by the Chaos Humans could come back alive, and the Chaos Humans used them as fertility tools, not to mention, when they had no use value, they were directly thrown to the Chaos Orcs as rations!
Otherwise, where will the raw materials come from for the roasted whole people of the Chaos Orcs?
This shows what kind of world the white natives of Obaro live in!
Although Count Badajoth underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Blue Army, he did not let down his vigilance, even if the Blue Army outside was all armed civilians disguised, the number alone was enough to worry Count Badajoth, who lacked troops.
The siege towers were pushed by numerous French infantry to approach the walls of Badajoz.
Because of the huge number of troops, the French line infantry never looked for people, and the coolies could just let their own people go up, anyway, some people were ......
When approaching the wall of Badajoz more than 300 meters, the phalanx of infantry platoons and guns of the French line advancing to the beat of the drum suddenly paused, and then began to shoot in formation.
That is, the first row of guns is reloaded on the spot, and the latter steps forward to pass the first row of soldiers who are loaded, and then the guns are loaded on the spot, and so on, and the first row of soldiers who have finished loading follows the line.
This way, the whole team will keep their firepower going forward!
The reason why they fired from a distance of 300 meters was because the infantry platoon and gun phalanx of the French line in front of them were all equipped with Longzheng rifles.
After conquering Rees City and occupying the colonial area of Rees City, Wang Ziming confiscated a large number of Longzheng rifles, and because Rees City fell too quickly, all the weapons in stock became Wang Ziming's trophies.
The Longzheng rifle is a universal weapon for the garrison, the city defense army, and even the regular army, and there is naturally enough stock in Reese City.
Therefore, Wang Ziming's French line infantry armed tens of thousands of Longzheng riflemen as full-time shooting cover troops.
Most of them were assigned to the 1st Army.
As for the French line infantry, which was responsible for other combat missions, it was natural that they were still using their own bayonets and flintlock pistols.
For example, the French line infantry standing behind the baffle of the siege tower were all flintlock muskeers.
