The legion commander just walked around and found Zhang Xiaofan's special team. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

There is no way, the artillery team has gone to the front of the musket team, and it is difficult not to attract attention.

As soon as the two chatted, the commander of the corps was also very wise, perhaps because he saw Zhang Xiaofan's management ability.

When he rested that night, Charles, the commander of the Knights, announced that Zhang Xiaofan would be temporarily promoted to the head of the artillery regiment, and all the 3,000-person artillery regiment that had been temporarily assembled would be handed over to him to be responsible, and Zhang Xiaofan was directly promoted to be the commander of the artillery regiment.

It's really an eclectic promotion.

The original regiment commander wiped a cold sweat and obeyed the order to return to the city-state.

After taking over the artillery regiment, Zhang Xiaofan realized how unreliable his country was. It's all fucking nonsense to say that good Germans are disciplined and love civilization.

The messy artillery regiment almost didn't have an accident on the first day of camp, not the battalion howling, but two drunken soldiers who accidentally put ammunition and torches together. When Zhang Xiaofan checked, it was only about half an hour before the explosion.

After being taken aback, Zhang Xiaofan could no longer believe in the history books, and the German people's prudence, discipline and love for civilization should have become civilized after Wilhelm I and Bismarck improved the basic education of the Germans.

After learning about the current actual situation of the artillery regiment, the stationed knights of the artillery regiment were found, that is, more than twenty mine owners. Previously, each of these mine owners was in charge of an artillery team, which was of a temporary nature. After all, the territory of the snowfield is surrounded by dark forests, and few neighboring countries invade the territory. More often than not, it is mining and encountering wild beasts, which only require muskets, and no artillery is needed at all.

Strictly speaking, Zhang Xiaofan relied on hundreds of years of vision and education such as TV and movies, and his understanding of artillery was higher than that of these people, so he became the commander of the artillery regiment.

The team of 3,000 people suddenly became difficult to lead, at least when he was in a hurry, Zhang Xiaofan wanted to change the governance method of 50 people to 3,000 people, which would easily cause the camp to roar, that is, to bomb the camp.

Before resting, Zhang Xiaofan still brought in the twenty squad leaders of the artillery regiment, as well as the four captains, and even held a small meeting with the ammunition logistics department, these twenty-four people are all mine owners, even if they are not members of the Teutonic Knights, they also have management experience, so in the face of the meeting held by Zhang Xiaofan, they all think it is very necessary.

The training team relied on rewards and punishments, and now the punishment has become inappropriate, and Zhang Xiaofan can only propose a reward plan.

First of all, a 100-person discipline inspection team was pulled out from each team to evaluate the team style, travel distance, and speed of each team.

Use the evaluation score to determine who cooks, who camps, who rests early, and who patrols when you set up camp every night in the future.

The best performers during the day are treated at night - sit back and enjoy themselves - no cooking, no camping, no patrolling, only training.

At first, the artillery teams were unimpressed, but at night, when they saw that the squad with the highest score was really enjoying it, the other squads finally began to be jealous and crazy.

On the fifth day of the army's march, the artillery regiment was finally reluctantly trained by Zhang Xiaofan into a team. Charles looked at the artillery regiment and felt very wise about his appointment the other day.

The march continued, and the journey from one principality to another, even if it was only five hundred miles, was carried by the horse-drawn people, and it took twelve days to march only about forty miles a day.

This is because Charles saw that the artillery regiment commanded by Zhang Xiaofan was fruitful and popularized the methods of the artillery regiment to the whole army, which was only two days ahead of schedule.

When Charles led his army of 10,000 to the border of Lore, 10,000 troops of Lore had been gathered here, and 10,000 elite troops of France were opposite.

Looking at the number of people, 10,000 in France, 10,000 in the army against Lore and 10,000 rescue troops in the snowfield, it seems that the French do not have an advantage, and even because of the host-guest status, the French are at a greater disadvantage because they are on the besieging side.

In fact, the 10,000 troops of France are all elite, while most of the 20,000 troops of Lore and Snow Plains are peasants, the so-called rabble, and there are less than 1,000 real military knights.

Even if it is a thousand people, and most of them are mine owners who have never fought much, they are on the battlefield for the first time.

On the other hand, the French brought excellent weapons, especially flintlock pistols, while the 20,000 people in Snow Field and Lore were all arquebuses. (The flintlock pistol was invented by the French, but in this volume it was thirty years earlier.) ）

On Lore's side plug, plus the hundred cannons brought by the snow field, it seems that there are less than two hundred, and even many of them are waste cannons, the kind that are easy to explode.

The artillery of the French is the latest long cannon, which is not only powerful, but also fast and long-range, and can completely suppress the two hundred cannons of Lore.

"This war is not easy," Charles is the commander of the Teutonic Knight Legion in Snowfield, and the younger brother of the King of Snowfield, and the bearded man standing next to him is William, the King of Lore.

William looked sad and lamented: "Now we can only pray that the spring rain will come soon, God forbid." He hoped that the rain would extinguish the French musket corps, but he did not know that the French musket corps had long since been renewed.

At this time, although the city-state of Lore was founded, it was only a small principality with less than 300,000 people. Regardless of strength, cultural knowledge is controlled by other countries. Among them, the snowfield city-state was relatively larger, and when they came to support the city-state of Lore, they saw William's bitter and confused face, and directly accepted the command of the war.

And William, the king of Lore, actually looked like he had put down his burden, and his expression became relaxed.

"Your Majesty, I brought a hundred cannons, this time I will definitely give the French a good look," although Charles's ability is also average, but he is very strong, and he thought in his heart: "The French on the other side have attacked all the way and robbed several city-states, and they should have been unable to let go of the burden of robbery and plunder, maybe they are here to threaten and extort, and they don't plan to really attack the city." Besides, this country of Lohr has no minerals, it has always been a poor kingdom, and even if it is given to itself, it is not rare for itself, and the French may not want to waste ammunition when they come to see it. ”

Not to mention how Charles and William guessed the French army, Zhang Xiaofan moved to the side with a hundred cannons, carefully observed the terrain, and immediately ordered someone to dig up some soil and make a simple sand table. After comparing back and forth, a hundred cannons were placed at various commanding heights of the side plug, and even a lot of them were placed outside the side stopper.

A day later, Zhang Xiaofan gave the sand table of the five defensive lines he had built to the commander-in-chief Charles, which shocked the commander Charles and King William.

In the army of the Han people in the Central Plains, Ma Yuan of the Eastern Han Dynasty has long had the ancient sand table of 'piling rice into mounds', but the sand table in European countries did not start until the nineteenth century, and there are still three hundred years from now.

Zhang Xiaofan took out such an invention in advance, and immediately shocked Charles and William, the two 'hillbillies'.

These two people also regarded Zhang Xiaofan as a military wizard, and very simply handed over all military command to Zhang Xiaofan to command.

Both of these people are the wiser kind, and professional things are left to professional people to do. Since Zhang Xiaofan has incredible military talent, then don't suppress it, after all, if the war is lost, it is you who regret it.

Zhang Xiaofan didn't expect that he was just revealing his future military skills, and this official position has been promoted upwards, first as an artillery captain, then as an artillery commander, and now he is directly promoted to the commander of the two armies.

After the surprise, Zhang Xiaofan knew that he was actually a rookie on the battlefield, he had never fought a war, and his understanding of war was completely obtained from multimedia means such as future history books, television, movies, and novels. In fact, it is unreliable, and I am not sure, everything can only be decided by exhausting personnel and listening to the destiny of heaven.

It's just that compared with Charles's dignity and William's benevolence, the means he understands are still a little stronger than the two, at least shocking both of them.

As the temporary commander of the two armies, Zhang Xiaofan re-stood on the side plug, arranged the various defensive formations on the sand table one by one, and the French finally rushed to camp ten miles away from the border plug, ready for the next day's attack.

For the first time, Zhang Xiaofan could only simulate various situations that might arise in his mind as much as possible, and after taking notes one by one, he made adjustments. Among them, because the command of 20,000 people was involved, Zhang Xiaofan turned the herald squad into a cavalry company, and contacted the commanders of various corps full-time.

Thinking of the Europeans fighting wars and having the habit of surrendering, Zhang Xiaofan had to ask people to start explaining to everyone the reward and punishment system for war. even raised the head of the French to the price of five gold coins per head in one go.

At the thought of the 10,000 French on the opposite side, which turned into 50,000 gold coins, all the allied soldiers looked at the French again and were no longer afraid, but glowing green.

As long as it is a method that can improve the combat effectiveness of the army, Zhang Xiaofan can think of everything, such as adding meat and meals, such as each person must bring two rice balls, and then establishing a battlefield brothel.

Everything is waiting for tomorrow's battle.

Zhang Xiaofan stayed awake all night, watching the sun rise, his mind was also making various calculations, and when he faintly touched his mind, the French military band finally appeared in front of him and finally came to the outside of the border plug one step ahead, and their artillery was still slowly advancing forward, and entered the artillery highland firing range set up by Zhang Xiaofan.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

……

Almost instantly, nearly seventy cannons from the three commanding heights in front opened fire together.

The French, who were still a mile away from the city gate, were directly blinded, and in a panic, they hurriedly looked for cover. And their artillery regiment is the key direction of attack of the coalition artillery.

With Zhang Xiaofan's guidance and teaching, this time the three commanding heights positions suddenly played a majestic role, killing half of the French artillery regiment, killing and wounding more than 1,000 people, and the subsequent ambush musket team also continued to suppress the French musket team's counterattack in the three-stage shooting method.

This was a loss that the French had never had since they attacked the Prussian Union, as if in an instant, they had changed from a strong to a weak chicken. After the French found cover in a hurry, they finally began to scatter and counterattack, but unfortunately it was too far away from the commanding heights of the coalition army, and it was completely indiscriminate and had no lethality at all.

After the initial panic, the French decided to strategically retreat one mile to reorganize the army and fight again, and when they were ready to reorganize and come again, Zhang Xiaofan took the 3,000 cavalry that had just been prepared, and screamed to cover the past.

You must know that there are only more than 8,000 of the 10,000 elites of the French at this moment, and the artillery regiments of the two coalition forces are still continuing to exert their might, the French did not expect that the coalition forces would launch an attack when the artillery bombardment, and at this time, the strategic retreat finally turned into a rout.
