Marshal Jan Skrzetusky has lost confidence in the musket militia on the front line, the scumbag cannon fodder musketeers who are forced to pull the strong men, and the third-rate mercenaries, these people were gathered by Marshal Jan Skrzetusky and placed on the front line to shoot, which itself is a bargaining chip used to consume the elite strength of the Taiping Army, and Marshal Jan Skrzetusky will not feel distressed if he dies.

The foundation of the Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania has never been this group of thousands of cannon fodder scum at will, but those military aristocrats all over the Great Plains of the Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania, who are the foundation of the elite of the military forces of the Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania!

Even the phalanx of pikemen behind the cannon fodder musketeers was composed of first-rate mercenaries hired by the Parliament of the Kingdom of Poland-Lithuania in zlotys (the official Polish currency), and none of them were the headquarters of the Polish-Lithuanian military aristocracy.

The real main elite of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition was placed in the cavalry on both flanks and in the second line of infantry defense.

After all, the Polish-Lithuanian coalition army had a great advantage in strength, and the army formation was divided into three layers, and the thickness and strength of a single layer would not be inferior to the Taiping army's main formation.

Although the cannon fodder musketeers in front of the first Polish line of defense had lost their fighting spirit and were in disarray, their numbers were there, and there was a phalanx of pikes acting as overseers in the rear, and a large number of Polish officers were under pressure in it, and a complete rout had not yet occurred for a while.

It wasn't until the first three platoons of the First Platoon Corps of the Taiping Army walked within 30 paces of the Polish front that the first platoon squatted down and the two platoons staggered upright to fire three volleys, the front row of the first Polish defensive line was under the pile of corpses, and the guns and cannon fodder in the front row of the Polish defense line were viciously angry, waving their weapons at the pikes and the Polish officers behind them.

Immediately afterwards, under the horizontal fingers of the combat knives of the officers of the Taiping Army's First Infantry Corps, all the elite musketeers of the Taiping Army wearing light half-length infantry cuirasses pulled out their standard steel scimitars and rushed forward with a roar!

Unsurprisingly, the musket firing line composed of Polish cannon fodder collapsed, and a large number of Polish cannon fodder, who were chased by the elite musketeers of the Taiping Army, strongly washed the pikes behind them, disrupting all the positions of the first Polish defensive line.

The Polish pikemen soldiers who insisted on fighting had no choice but to abandon the tight phalanx, and drew their melee weapons to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the rout and the onrushing Taiping soldiers.

Hand-to-hand combatants once again proved the significance of their higher pay, and the will to fight of the melee pikemen was simply 'perfect' compared to the musketeers who crashed into two volleys and a single charge.

Although the elite musketeers of the Taiping Army are not professional hand-to-hand combat troops in the all-out war system, they are also regular infantry units that have been promoted to a high level, and their melee combat ability is not weaker than that of Polish hand-to-hand mercenaries, and the elite musketeers of the Taiping Army wear iron half-body cuirasses and round pointed iron helmets, and the protection of the equipment is even more 'luxurious' than that of ordinary mercenaries.

The most lethal thing is that the pikemen in the first line of defense are all veterans of mercenaries, and their morale is linked to risk and mercenary, which is not comparable to the elite musketeers of the Taiping Army at the die-hard level.

The hand-to-hand spear mercenaries, who had lost the advantage of the phalanx, had not noticed anything when they first took over, but after fighting for a period of time, they were beaten back by the elite musketeers of the Taiping Army, who were indomitable and regardless of their own casualties and their personal combat skills were not weak, and only the power to parry remained.

The Second Infantry Regiment of the Taiping Army Headquarters stayed 100 meters away from the battlefield and raised its guns on guard, watching the friendly soldiers of the First Infantry Corps who were constantly losing due to the lack of superiority in numbers and die in battle.

"Oh my God! Are the Taipings all cold-blooded animals? They could obviously bet on it to reduce their own losses and defeat the first line of defense more easily, but they would rather stand in place and be on guard! ”

A large Polish aristocratic general wearing hussar full body armor looked at the battlefield in disbelief and shouted.

"They are not cold-blooded, but calm and rational, although the whole army can break through our first line of defense, but their rear road will also be easily cut off by our cavalry team to outflank and encircle, and at that time, the Taiping army headquarters will not lose the strength of an infantry regiment."

Marshal Jan Skrzetuski said with a blank face.

The headquarters of the Taiping Army can sit back and watch the casualties of friendly forces expand in order to win, but the Poles cannot sit idly by while the first line of defense is crumbling, if the battlefield situation of the first line of defense continues, the first corps of the Taiping Army will certainly be abolished due to too much attrition, but the first line of defense of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition will also completely collapse.

It was a defensive line composed of nearly 20,000 cannon fodder and mercenaries, the Taiping Army had four infantry regiments in its headquarters, and the Polish-Lithuanian coalition army had only three lines of defense.

Marshal Jan Skzhetusky really couldn't figure it out, he could understand the collapse of the musket firing line composed of the scum in front, but why were the hand-to-hand mercenaries hired by a lot of money in the back still being pressed and beaten when they were several times the number of the enemy?

The most hateful thing is that the casualties of that group of hand-to-hand mercenaries are not much greater than those of the first regiment of the Taiping Army!

People who work for money are not reliable!

The Polish aristocratic generals, who had witnessed the performance of the so-called first-class mercenaries on the battlefield, had a similar idea in their hearts, and at the same time strengthened the idea of returning to the parliament to vote on the formation of a national standing army.

Even if the standing army would encroach on the interests of the Polish-Lithuanian military aristocracy, it would be better than the disaster of the country.

When there is oppression and threat, there will be motivation to reform.

The 1st and 2nd Cavalry of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition rushed forward as scheduled, the 1st Cavalry inserted directly from the flank of the battlefield to support the crumbling first line of defense, and the 2nd Cavalry launched a harassing assault on the 2nd Infantry Regiment of the Taiping Army, trying to block their support.

When Hong Tiancheng in the rear saw this, he immediately issued an order to send 500 Ottoman armed attendant cavalry and 500 Zasak cavalry to intercept the Second Cavalry Team, and the thousand cavalry, which had long been ready for battle, swept towards the Second Cavalry of the Poles like a whirlwind.

Under a cavalry duel and passionate impact, the Ottoman armed squires and the Zasak cavalry lived up to their expectations and successfully entangled with the Polish Second Cavalry, and the Taiping Second Infantry Regiment, which was not harassed and contained, could finally step forward without hindrance and attack the Polish First Cavalry that had just been inserted into the battlefield of the first line of defense!

Annihilating the main cavalry of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition army as much as possible is the most important combat goal of Hong Tiancheng's Taiping Army!
