On the morning of July 11, 1781, 60 kilometers west of New York on the North American continent, a colonial town with a population of 2,000 people, Ouyang Yu's 131st Regiment headquarters was set up here.

The townspeople had two different attitudes towards the 131st Regiment, about two-thirds of the residents were hostile to the British troops, staying at home and looking indifferently at their oppressors through the windows, and only one-third of the residents took to the streets to warmly welcome the arrival of the 131st Regiment.

"Smack...... Syllable...... Smack......!"

Several human targets were erected in the open space outside the town, and Ouyang Yu, who was depressed because he had not been assigned a good task, was holding a flintlock musket to relieve his boredom.

Take out the medicine pot and put it into the ****** , and then stuff the bullet into the barrel, take out the whole strip and compact, move away the hammer to be fired, the loading process of the flintlock musket is cumbersome and time-consuming, and the blind fire rate is also high, the trigger is pulled down There is a probability that there are about three layers of probability that it will not be excited, and the accuracy of the gun before the smoothbore is really touching, Ouyang Yu's bullet has not hit any target at a distance of 10 meters, even if it is 50 meters and 10 bullets have only hit three times, and there is a 100% enlightenment hit rate at a distance of 30 meters, so that Ouyang Yu, who wants to relieve her depressed mood, is more and more depressed, she threw away the flintlock pistol in her hand, bought an MG42 from the system, and hit a bullet chain to relieve her anger a little。

"What a broken thing, slow reloading and inaccurate hitting, no wonder this era will use the tactic of queuing to shoot. ”

Sitting under the parasol, Laura gave Ouyang Yu fragrant tea that could relieve fatigue and soothe his mood, and after taking a sip of fragrant tea, Ouyang Yu felt depressed, and his mood suddenly improved a lot.

"Report!"

The scout who had gone out to scout rode back, trotting all the way to Ouyang Yu's side and saluting.

"Report to the sir, the situation of the rebels has been figured out!"

"Point it to me on the map. ”

"Yes!"

The scout walked to Ouyang Yu's side, took out the map and spread it out on the table, "The place where the rebels produce munitions is called Petersburg, about one hundred and ten kilometers away from our army, according to the reconnaissance, Petersburg is a tobacco distribution and processing center, as well as flour, chemical, military and other industries, it is an important material town and distribution center for the rebels, because the front line needs to use troops, so the defense of Petersburg is empty, and there are only three hundred regular troops and five hundred militia to defend. ”

Hearing this, Ouyang Yu's eyes lit up, and at the same time, he also understood General Montgomery's painstaking efforts, even if she was far away from the dangerous main battlefield, she could also get greater credit, and she was not ashamed to be the commander of the expeditionary force, and her mind was more flexible than ordinary people.

Since Ouyang Yu had the credit for this send-off, it was impossible not to, and immediately issued an order to prepare to move, in order to keep it secret, the 131st Regiment set off quietly in the middle of the night, and when the sun rose the next day, the residents of the town found that the British troops stationed were gone.

After three days of marching, Ouyang Yu's 131st Regiment arrived at Petersburg, and the Continental Army in Petersburg entered a brief confusion after discovering the 131st Regiment, and the Petersburg commander, Major Luther, arrived after receiving the news and shouted at the chaotic soldiers.

"Don't mess around, order all the soldiers to enter their posts, gather the young adults in the city to distribute weapons, and immediately send someone to contact General Washington, tell him about the situation here, and ask him to send reinforcements!"

Major Luther's strong command soon calmed the soldiers of the Continental Army and entered their respective posts in an orderly manner, and several liaison soldiers also left Petersburg on fast horses with Major Luther's handwritten letter to find General Washington for help.

Ouyang Yu, who had reached his destination, did not rush to attack the city, but ordered his troops to set up camp and prepare to rest for one night, and launch an attack tomorrow.

Just after nine o'clock in the morning of July 15, 1781, the soldiers of Ouyang Yu's 131st Regiment left the camp with neat steps under the rhythm of the drumbeat, the 131st Regiment had three infantry battalions, an artillery battalion, and a cavalry battalion. Tank and long-range artillery and machine-gun fire, she almost didn't know how to fight.

The two infantry battalions numbered more than 700 people, which was not much different from the Continental Army defending Petersburg, and Major Luther also wanted to test the strength of the 131st Regiment, so the two armies lined up in a phalanx in the huge open space outside Petersburg, and the soldiers on both sides slowly approached under the command of the military music and drums, and the artillery on both sides had already opened fire, shooting solid iron bumps at each other.

"The whole team stops!"

The phalanx of the Continental Army, a hundred meters from the 131st regiment, first stopped its advance.

"Raise your gun and reload!"

The soldiers of the Continental Army were nervously and quickly reloading their ammunition under the orders of their respective commanders, while the soldiers of the 131st Regiment were still slowly advancing.

"Aim, wait for the order to shoot!"

More than 1,000 soldiers of the Continental Army raised their flintlock pistols and aimed at the soldiers of the 131st Regiment who were getting closer and closer.

“Fire！”

"Bang bang bang ......!"

Dense gunfire and thick white eyes sounded in the tight phalanx of the Continental Army, and one bullet after another flew towards the soldiers of the 131st Regiment who were still advancing in a mysterious Brown trajectory, many soldiers of the 131st Regiment were hit by bullets and fell down screaming, the soldiers behind ignored the fallen comrades, and the thousands of substitutes for the positions of the fallen comrades were expressionless, in addition, the soldiers of the 131st Regiment commanded by Ouyang Yu were all natural persons, except for the female soldiers of her Wild Rose Guards, none of them were system soldiers.

"Boom...... Boom......!"

Their own soldiers were shot, the artillery of the 131st regiment stepped up the bombardment of the Continental Army, a fist-sized shell was shot out of the chamber, flew over a distance of more than 300 meters and then landed, after landing the cannonball, the kinetic energy did not disappear, from one end of the phalanx to the other, the Continental Army soldiers were either missing arms or legs, leaving a death zone paved with life and blood on the phalanx of the Continental Army.

"All of them, stop moving!"

When they were only 50 meters away from the Continental Army, the soldiers of the 131st Regiment finally stopped, and the Continental Army fired three salvos in a short distance of 50 meters, causing the two battalions to pay hundreds of casualties.

"Raise your gun!"

The well-trained soldiers of the 131st Regiment aimed their flintlock pistols at the soldiers of the Continental Army, who were still loaded.

“Fire！”

"Bang bang bang ......!"

Because of the close distance, the soldiers of the 131st Regiment greatly improved their shooting accuracy, and the soldiers of the Continental Army fell in pieces, which was the usual tactic of the British army, trying to move forward as far as possible in the face of huge casualties, and then charging after a platoon of guns, using bayonets to destroy all the enemy.
