A week has passed since the annihilation and defeat of the main Spanish invasion, a battle in which more than 300 people were killed in the initial queue shooting, and there were few casualties in the subsequent pursuit and the previous ambush!

The strength of the two Spanish infantry regiments was completely gone, except for a few soldiers who escaped by chance, most of the Spanish soldiers and Cocopas died at the hands of the Han infantry, and the previous queue to shoot the Han infantry was also in mental torment at all times, and after the decisive victory, those Han infantry vented all their fears on the enemy who surrendered and did not surrender......

When Zhao Dutian felt the scene of the pursuit, there were not many prisoners still alive......

This was Zhao Dutian's negligence, he ignored the suppression and release of the tyrannical psychology under the pressure of war, and as a result, those prisoners who could at least be slaves were all stabbed into hedgehogs with bayonets......

However, for Zhao Dutian, this is not a big problem, and it is impossible for him to blame those loyal warriors who won for him because of this matter!

At this time, Zhao Dutian was summing up the modern war experience of his previous life and the battlefield experience he had just experienced on parchment!

Zhao Dutian took the quill pen seized by the Spaniards, and first wrote on the first line of the parchment a few Chinese characters "The advantage of line tactics", although the font looks a little crooked, but it is no problem to understand, anyway, he is not going to participate in the calligraphy competition......

1. The combat effectiveness of the line infantry in white-knuckle combat is no worse than that of any professional cold weapon unit, (refer to the performance of the British and French coalition forces in the face of the elite Mongolian cavalry during the Opium War) and even when the training and physical fitness are completely inferior to the opponent, the professional cold weapon unit will be subjected to 1-2 rounds or even more shots in the process of charging the line infantry, resulting in a large number of attrition and a huge morale shock, and by the time the time the battle is engaged, it is often already at a disadvantage in numbers and falls into fear, The line infantry, which was densely formed, was loaded with bayonets, and from the front it looked like a forest of hedgehog-like spears -- the most combat-effective form of combat in the era of cold weapons. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

2. The line infantry was not inferior to any professional bow and crossbow unit in long-range fire projection, and was not at a disadvantage in terms of overall accuracy, lethality and effective range, and the actual combat distance of archers and crossbowmen at that time did not exceed 100 yards, and the salvo of line infantry at this distance was completely capable of completely suppressing the opponent. (During the Battle of Bali Bridge, the Manchu and Mongolian cavalry of the Qing army rushed to 30 meters in front of the line infantry formation for cavalry shooting, and it was natural that they were annihilated.) ）

3. Line infantry was not at a disadvantage even in the face of cavalry, in addition, trained line infantry was able to quickly switch into a hollow phalanx formation, and the cavalry was almost helpless in the face of such a phalanx.

4. The cost of the line infantry is extremely low, the training is extremely simple, and the cost advantage makes it almost always have a numerical advantage in the fight against traditional troops, so it always has an advantage in the width of the battlefield, in other words, when two armies with the same combat effectiveness meet, the width of the line infantry always exceeds that of the opponent, so that it can be encircled or part of the force can be transferred to intersperse.

Zhao Dutian naturally didn't write so many words, this was the idea in his head, and it was simplified when he recorded it.

After the recording, Zhao Dutian put down the quill and walked to the window of the second-story building in the center of the town, constantly recalling the previous memories in his mind, this kind of direct recruitment of soldiers by the system is not long-term after all, he still has to switch to the second conventional development model after all, and the details of these line tactics will be the key to victory!

There is no population limit for self-trained line infantry!

On the battlefield, from the point of view of the soldiers participating in the battle, it is like being at a shooting range, and the target is them, the experience is terrifying (refer to shooting, many criminals are so frightened that they can't even walk in the execution ground), guns and shells knock down the people around them from time to time, smoke obscures the vision, soldiers are asked to step over their fallen comrades, keep in formation, keep moving forward in a neat formation, bravely face death, and armor is all furnishings in front of the musket, that is to say, soldiers are unprotected in the face of guns, I believe that if you are on this kind of battlefield, you are trying to hide or escape......

In such a war, discipline is a guarantee of combat effectiveness:

In the battle of Abraham Plains, the French army put five or six rows of guns while advancing, and some grassroots units of the British army lost more than a quarter, and only began to shoot at 20m, and the three rows of guns in ten minutes completely broke the French front. Often in less than ten rounds of shooting, the British army was able to disperse the opposing rifle line, so the famous tactic of the British Royal Army at that time was to walk in unison, and then go to a place twenty paces away from the army, put a row of guns collectively, and then fight with a white knuckle. This tactic is very demoralizing to the enemy, imagine a row of people on the wall with a gun black pressure to walk towards you, even if the person next to you does not care, at this time the enemy soldiers in advance are good, many times there will be soldiers trembling so that the bullet is not well loaded, this is the British "Iron Duke" trained soldiers, the requirements for soldiers are also very high, because to withstand the enemy's gaze and bullets to walk forward, so at that time there were very few troops who could complete this tactic. In fact, behind it is the support of modern industry and the extremely harsh modern training methods. Why is the PLA kicking? Not all of them learned from Prussia. It's not about flexible individual tactics and tactics, it's about a uniform war machine. Why are the uniforms of modern armies so bright?

Morale! Lining up neatly and shooting down many soldiers on the other side at once will greatly boost morale. Discipline was so important that in ancient times, if you didn't have a few people dead, the army would collapse, and then there would be a rout, and after the rupture, it would become a massacre. But the army at this time was able to endure extremely heavy casualties. Often more than half of the casualties on both sides are killed, and what they fight is to persevere, and if they persist, they will win, and the other party will be finished.

Zhao Dutian's eyes were deep, perhaps, he wanted to take advantage of the fact that he had not switched to the regular mode, and learn from the training methods of the British and Prussians.
