1855 United States Tycoon

Chapter 77 Tactical Change (2)

“Hey, I saw it too. That shell really looks like the United States guy said. It can be seen with the naked eye. It’s like a small football. At first, it looks slowly, like any one. Throw it sideways, and you can stop it. But when it’s about to land, it suddenly becomes so fast and fierce. Hey, if I can kick such a shot, I can guarantee that no one will want to slam it. .”

“Come on, Pires! Just your two spongy legs, want to kick that kind of ball? But that guy’s power is really not covered, have you seen the target? Five thick boards The target made can be easily penetrated with one shot. It hits a person like this, isn’t it such a big hole?” Private Rossi said with emotion.

“A hole? You are not beautiful! I never heard that United States guy said that the whole body was torn apart when the torso was hit. The head, body, hands, feet and internal organs were thrown more than ten meters away. Oh, thinking about that scene makes people feel nauseous!”

“I heard that the Austrians have more cannons than us. The defense is good, and we can hide in the trenches, as long as it’s not too unlucky. Just like Tommy, the cannons just listen, but the offense is troublesome. Think about it, the above ordered us to attack, and then we lined up in a neat line, accompanied by snare drums, and marched toward the Austrian army. Then, the Austrians launched a lot of cannons far away. , It was a fierce shot at us. This scene is so terrible, I can’t even imagine…”

“A skirmish attack is a skirmish attack, but you actually want everyone to wear such a green-stained cook apron on their chests, and also make the soldiers wear green sleeves! You want them to play the frog prince Is it?” Lieutenant Colonel Neville felt that he could not stand it again. Although, he also had a premonition that he would still succumb to those United States guys, because he didn’t know whether he was more loyal to the king or more. Be loyal to “Black Water”. “These are the demons who should be in The Underworld!” He cursed in his heart the demons who tempted him and made him sign the contract to sell his soul. But if someone tells him to give up that contract, he will probably pull out his gun and fight you desperately.

“You can’t blame me for this.” Robson put his arms on his chest, as if it was none of my business, I looked innocent, “If your king is willing to purchase camouflage combat uniforms from us, we don’t want to use this. The crude way.”

“Your camouflage combat uniform? That thing is really a green toad, or a toad with stripes and spots!”

“But the concealment effect is good. The enemy may not be able to see it when they come. You see, Mr. Garibaldi has already ordered a batch from us. I really don’t understand. Mr. Garibaldi doesn’t care about putting his red The shirt army has become the green shirt army, what are you doing so persistently?”

“I’m saying it again, Mr. Garibaldi is different from us. Although I admire him very much, he is different from us. We are a regular army, not a militia!” Lieutenant Colonel Neville took a breath and added another sentence. “The regular army has to look like a regular army? And dressed like yours, it is difficult for the enemy to see you, but our own commander can’t see the own army, so it is inconvenient to command.”

“What look in your eyes?” Robson glared at Neville, “And now I just ask you to make the soldiers green in front of you, why can’t you see them behind…”

“Spread, spread out! Hell! What the hell are you doing so densely? Afraid that the enemy won’t use platoon guns to shoot at you? Or do you want to die harder? Damn! Tommy, don’t run with someone else’s ass, you and Luo West has to be at least 5 meters away! Only in this way can a bullet that is aimed at Rossi but shot crooked won’t hit you!” The military advisor Dell shouted loudly.

“Tommy, stay away from me! Especially when it comes to fighting!” Rossi turned and shouted at Tommy, who was just behind him.

“Why?” Tommy asked uncomprehendingly.

“Because you are a hapless person, I am afraid that you will be unlucky next to you, understand!” Rossi squatted down behind a mound of soil and made preparations for shooting, while replied irritably.

“The second group keep up! Run the curve!” Dell yelled again. So more than a dozen soldiers in the second group sparsely ran forward. After running for ten steps, a few guys habitually ran together again.

“Stop! Stop!” Dell called the training to a halt, rushing to the group of guys running quickly.

“Idiot! Stupid! If there is an enemy in front of you, just one shot or one volley, you stupid things can contribute to the optimization of the Italian race! Tell you to spread out, squat and run without hearing Come again! Go back to the starting point and start again! Damn it, how many times has it been done again for such a simple thing?”

So the soldiers turned their heads and walked towards the starting point. While walking, there are still people talking.

“In the past, I practiced intensively when I died, but now I want to change it all at once. How can it be so easy?” said one.

“That’s it, I said, what does the United States guy mean when you say’contribute to the optimization of the Italian race’?” another asked.

“That is to say, if we die, the average level of intelligence of Italians will be ascending! Even if you don’t understand this, it seems that you have indeed lowered the average line of Italians.” They were dragged down and had to start again. Someone in the first group replied.

“How high is the offensive power of such a sparse attack?” Lieutenant Colonel Neville, who was watching the training, muttered again, “Moreover, if the enemy gathers a group of cavalry and rushes over, we still I can use a hollow phalanx to deal with them, what should I do now? There are no trenches that have been dug here.”

“Lieutenant Colonel.” Robson said, “Considering the rate of fire and accuracy of the McDonald’s 1857 rifle, even if it uses a loose formation, the firepower density is no less than that of the traditional dense formation. In fact, if you use it, 1857 also used dense formations, not only easy to be killed by other artillery, but also a bit of a waste of firepower. Do you remember the last time you shot a target, many targets were hit with more than ten shots? As for the cavalry, there is indeed a problem, but it is not a big deal. problem.”

“Why is it not a big problem? As soon as the cavalry rushed up and the saber slashed, the entire formation collapsed! Isn’t this a big problem?”

“Your formation is so loose, the front and the depth are so big, as long as you don’t scare yourself to death, where is so easy to collapse? Oh, I forgot that you are Italians.” Robson said maliciously, angry. Lieutenant Colonel Neville’s nostrils were about to smoke out.

“Haha, just kidding, don’t be angry.” Robson saw that Neville was about to run away, and quickly analyzed the situation of the loose walker array equipped with McDonald’s 1857 rifle facing the cavalry charge. He knew that with such an analysis, Neville’s custody would forget his offenses.

“You think, a group of cavalry rushed over, are they rushing in a dense formation, or scattered? When rushing, there are only a few people on the front? On the contrary, they themselves have to face the volley of the entire loose infantry array. Hey, MacDonald’s 1857 rifle volley…whatever you look at it, they are the ones who suffer. Moreover, the cavalry’s charge distance is also very limited. I came from a cavalry. Generally speaking, we have to line up and walk slowly. Go forward to a distance of about 500 meters from the enemy before getting on the horse. Then the first two hundred meters are jogging in small steps, and the speed starts at 300 meters. But when McDonald shot a salvo in 1857, it was nearly 800. The range is meters. If the cavalry wants to charge you, either they have to fight your salvo and charge again at a predetermined distance, or they charge ahead. If they charge ahead, the horse’s strength will be insufficient, and the speed will be slow. You bullied with long-range volleys. In the end, you rushed up, but there were not a few people on the front of the impact. All of them were chopped off and made up for the loss. In addition, the cavalry is more valuable than the infantry. ”

“What about spreading?” Neville asked.

“For example, one day, you took a MacDonald 1857 and went hunting on the North American grasslands. Suddenly you saw a bison rushing toward you 600 meters away. Do you think you are dead or the bison? It’s dead? No matter how you look at it, it’s that the bison has a higher chance of dying, right? The cavalry is scattered and charged. What is the difference from this? If the Austrians use cavalry for infantry like this, your king fell asleep and dreamed You must wake up with a smile. So don’t worry. As long as your people don’t have a nervous breakdown, you will definitely get hacked to death, but the cavalry will definitely suffer.” Robson replied.

“What you said seems to make sense, but why do I still think there is a problem?” Neville said, “By the way, you said that as long as your people don’t collapse on their own, there is a problem here. This group of dog killers , Maybe it will really collapse on its own! No, we must find a way!”

“Or, go find a team of cavalry, rush to them twice if you have nothing to do, and write down those who dare to turn around and run. After training, use the whip to whip it. If you smoke it a few times, it will be fine. Well, do this. , We are all good at it!” Robson smiled.

“Good idea. Just do it like this. It doesn’t take many cavalry. A few dozen are enough. Practice in small groups. I know the commander of the cavalry regiment Leonto. He is a friend of my father’s. It should not be difficult for a cavalry company to come out.”

“It’s over, go back and rest!”

After being called off again and again, the training of loosening the formation and shielding each other and advancing finally ended. The soldiers returned to the barracks and talked about the training they had just done.

“Tommy, were you terrified when the cannon rang just now?”

“No, the muzzle is facing me. Who wants the cannon to hide there? Fortunately, there are no shells.”

“Don’t worry. Only the wretched guys of “Black Water” will hide the cannon half-buried in the soil. Austrians don’t have that much thought and effort!”
