Chapter 256: Approximate Army Classification

Limited by the rhythm of the roar of communication and the march of the legs, Zhao Dutian, who was far away in the Tucson fortress in North America, did not get the news that Dolores had an uprising and swept the outskirts of Mexico City!

The most densely populated place to which the Viceroyalty of New Spain belongs, not the North American part, but the central part of the Mexican region!

The climate here is pleasant, water and forest resources are abundant, the land is fertile, the income from the plantation has always been very gratifying, and the population is naturally more fed!

Even if the Spanish colonial government exploited it, it would not have to starve the Indian slaves to death, otherwise, who would do the work?

Labor force is the foundation to ensure productivity, with sufficient productivity, in order to dig out more gold and silver minerals, grow more grain and fruits!

Even when the Spaniards had just crushed the Great Indian Empires of South and Central America, smallpox and mass murder caused a huge shortage of labor and labor, and many black slaves had to be captured from Africa!

Especially in the colony of the Great Island of Haiti in the West Indies, the number of black slaves has far exceeded the number of local whites, and the whites here are not only those nobles and large landowners, but all the whites in Haiti together are far less than the blacks!

And the oppression of black slaves by the white colonists of Haiti was more ruthless and cruel than the oppression of Indian slaves!

It's just that Haiti is a French colony, so there has not yet been a revolution, and now that the war in Europe has just begun, France's strong national power has not yet decayed, and the status of the Kingdom of Spain, which has long been rotated as a second-tier country and is trying to advance to a third-tier country, is very different!

The control of the colonies is naturally more powerful, of course, the power here is aimed at the suppression of local slaves, and if it is compared to the standing armies of Europe, it is not even a fart......

If the military strength of this era is roughly divided, the standing army of the European powers and the elite Han Guards of the Han Empire belong to the world's top first-line army, with the best armament, the most vigorous morale and the best combat effectiveness.

The second level is naturally the standing armies of the Kingdom of Spain, the Kingdom of Sardinia, and even the densely packed small European countries, as well as the armies of the European powers, which have not been on the battlefield and are not considered elite recruits!

These armies can also be regarded as the main force in the European theater, and if the number of troops forms a huge advantage over the front-line army, they can still win!

Third-rate armies are the armies recruited by various countries in the colonies!

Not including the standing army that was transported over from home!

Although the troops recruited by the colonial authorities use the same muskets, the number and morale of the artillery are far inferior to the first two levels of troops, and when the number is the same, it is basically impossible to confront the first two levels of troops!

As for the fourth-rate army, it is the so-called militia of various countries, which lacks training, lacks discipline, and has poor combat resilience, and can easily collapse!

But even if the militia is armed, it is stronger than the rebel army who was born with mud legs and cannot even be worthy of a musket!

Of course, the advantage of the rebel army lies in the number and morale, anyway, when the rebel army fights with the colonial army, it will never fight with the same number, and the crowd tactics can make up for the lack of combat effectiveness of the rebel army, and the soldiers of the rebel army are all young people with ideals and revenge, as long as they are not completely defeated, they will gradually experience with the experience of war, and with the capture of the battlefield to improve their own armament, the combat effectiveness can be quickly enhanced!

Of course, of course, this division does not include the Eastern World, and the composition of the armies in the Eastern World is too chaotic to clearly distinguish which is stronger and weaker in combat effectiveness, so I will not make a comparison here!

According to this division, Zhao Dutian took the first-class army used to press the formation, and used the second-rate army to carry the fourth-rate cannon fodder, and gnawed down the Tucson fortress little by little!

In the Tucson Fortress, there are many old standing armies formed in the Kingdom of Spain, and a large number of colonial authorities' troops, which also belong to the category of second- and third-rate troops.

With the surrender of the Tucson Fortress, the Han Empire regained the smooth flow of news in the Mexican region, and Zhao Dutian naturally got the news of the outbreak of Dolores' uprising!

As for Mexico City, Zhao Dutian has no way of knowing, it is really that the uprising in central Mexico has spread too fast, almost all of the roads in Mexico City have to pass through the occupied areas of the rebels, and the source has been cut off!

What Zhao Dutian was most worried about was what happened, although the uprising broke out a little quickly, but it was not out of plan. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Unless that Flores. Governor Fruela is determined to fight to the death, otherwise, Mexico City should not be defeated by the rebels so quickly!

As long as Mexico City remained in the hands of the Spaniards, the size of the rebel army would be limited, not only geographically, but more importantly, whether the capital had fallen or not, which often gave a great hint!

Once the rebels took the Mexican capital, they would undoubtedly swear to the working people of the entire Mexican region that the Spanish rule here was completely finished!

One can imagine how the Native Americans, who are so greatly inspired, will choose?

Even the most cowardly and timid people will jump out to celebrate independence and freedom!

At that time, the situation can be completely eroded, even if it is finally suppressed by a strong army, but it will leave the local people with the impression that the uprising has been successful, this is like a man and a woman going to bed, the first time is always difficult, but as long as there is a successful experience of the first time, the second and third times will be very simple, as long as there is a slight opportunity, then it will never give up to set off a revolutionary wave!

The Spanish colonial rule in Zhao Dutian's previous life was played like this, the combat effectiveness of the rebel army was really bad, but the indomitable spirit of the people made the Spaniards suffer!

Moreover, the spread of nationalism is too fast, and once the suppression is not effective, there will be a phenomenon of more and more enemies!

This is something that Zhao Dutian will never allow to happen!

Therefore, after Zhao Dutian learned the news of Dolores' uprising, tens of thousands of American Native Guards, who were being repaired, marched into two routes and marched to Mexico City in a pincer-like marching route!

The Han Guards were guarding Zhao Dutian's side and did not set off! (To be continued.) )
