Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 62

In fact, the word "Hua Yong" is not very popular. It sounds similar to the Returning Home Mission, and it also means wandering soldiers.

In fact, this is not the case. In order to form Huayong, the British allocated military expenditures as high as 30000 pounds per year. Huayongs enjoy first-class salaries and benefits in the Far East. According to the standards of the local army, the shooting performance of the Huayongs can generally be regarded as excellent.

What I want to explain here is that the British Army has always emphasized shooting skills. During the Korean War, the volunteers knew that "we are not afraid of American guns, but British guns." This shows that the British army's shooting skills are good.

The British troops who emphasized archery were beaten to shame by the Boers on the front line, not because the British troops were not good at archery, but because the tactics of the British troops were not good. "Linear tactics" are queuing and shooting tactics, emphasizing discipline And courage, the troops are not allowed to shoot until they advance close enough to the enemy in battle, and the Boers are good at small-scale guerrilla warfare, and they don’t fight the British head-on at all. The British lobster soldiers have not yet approached the Boer The guerrilla front, the Boer guerrillas had already dispersed, and the British troops didn't even have the chance to shoot in volleys. How could they win?

This can also explain why when the British troops fought the Boers before, they often ended in one battle. The casualties of the British troops were hundreds of thousands, and the Boers suffered single-digit casualties.

It's not that our army doesn't work hard, but the enemy army is too cunning.

To put it bluntly, the Boer guerrillas attacking the British regular army is like a hunter attacking a stupid roe deer, one hits one accurately, but the Boer guerrillas met Rock——

Well, Rock didn't graduate from a military school, but Rock really likes mixed iron and super-big ones. If you just talk about it in these two forums, you are better at guerrilla warfare than the Boers in the [-]th century.

"Anton, from now on, forget everything that the British officers in the Huayong camp taught you. We are not a regular army, but a policeman, so we can't use regular army tactics." Rock found the perfect reason to persuade Anton, although this The reason is a bit lame, but that's how you deal with honest people like Anton.

To be honest, sometimes when Rock communicated with Anton, he really wanted to yell: There is an honest man here, everyone come and bully him!

"Hey, after leaving the Huayong camp, we won't even be allowed to use tactics?" Anton is really that simple, and Anton will believe whatever Roque says.

Believe it or not, Anton's English is not yet able to communicate with the British barrier-free. In the entire Huayong camp, only Rock has the closest relationship with the British, and he can speak in front of Henry, so in a certain To a certain extent, Rock's words mean what the British mean.

"We are not allowed to wear clothes yet. No, even if we are going to the front line, we have to wear police uniforms." Rock is very satisfied with this. The uniforms issued by the Cape Town Police Department in summer are khaki Yes, although it is not very good-looking, but compared with those fiery lobster soldiers, Rock immediately feels relieved.

Whether it is in the forest or on the grassland, red is the most conspicuous color. In terms of camouflage effect, it is definitely not as good as khaki. Don’t underestimate this little camouflage effect. If it is really not important, the British will not Ditch that suit.

"Then what should we do?" Anton was at a loss. In the Huayong camp, the Huayongs also received training in queuing up and shooting. Now that they have lost their familiar tactics, Anton is very uncomfortable and can't figure out how to deal with those damn Boer guerrillas. .

"It's better not to use it, come, come, let's do an experiment." Rock wants to prove with facts that the generals in the expeditionary army headquarters are all big idiots.

With the same number of commandos and the same equipment, Rock arranged a team to use linear tactics to form an offensive formation according to the tradition of Huayong Battalion.

The other team set up a defensive position with the help of flower beds, trees, house corners, windows and other bunkers next to the training ground.

As soon as Rock blew the whistle representing the start of the exercise, Anton and all the commandos were dumbfounded.

"This—how to fight this?" Anton's eyes were bigger than copper bells, and the commandos looked at each other, and suddenly burst into laughter.

Yes, there is no way to fight. Let alone how good the defensive commandos are at shooting, the two Maxim heavy machine guns that Rock set up in the defensive position can kill all the attacking team members in a short time. All wiped out.

Rock, a black-hearted guy, even set up the Maxim heavy machine guns at both ends of the defensive position, which seriously violated the tactical regulations stipulated by the officers at the time, and did not use heavy firepower intensively, but Anton tried several angles and found that It is impossible for him to break through the blockade of the two Maxim heavy machine guns. If he escapes one, he must be within the firing range of the other. When Anton found this out, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

English-British people are wrong? !

This discovery shocked Anton even more than when he learned that Rock was naturalized in Cape Town.

"Stupid? Come on, grandpas are waiting for you!"

"The head has ordered, why not attack? Violation of the order will be decapitated."

"Come on, I will let you ten meters first. If I shoot first, I will be your son."

The commandos on defense, unaware of the intensity of Anton's psychological struggle, began to pick on the hesitant attackers.

"Your sister, come out if you have the guts!"

"How does this attack? This is death."

"Grandpas decided to scold you to death right here."

The offensive team members were not stupid. Although everyone had no bullets in their guns, if they rushed forward, it was obvious that they would die.

"Come on, come on, the attacking side and the defensive side switch, and you can feel the feeling of facing crossfire." Rock arranges the rotation, so that everyone can face this kind of crossfire, so that they can understand the mistakes of the previous British officers. How outrageous.

Offensive and defensive, the defensive player who was happy to be provocative just now was immediately dumbfounded, and the original offensive player who stayed comfortably behind the bunker was in a good mood. Come on, come on, who just laughed at me as a coward, now you give I'm brave one let me see.

The offensive players are not stupid, they also decided to scold each other to death, so the training ground was very lively.

"Lock, is this crossfire?" Anton does have potential and has already realized the role of crossfire.

While the training ground was full of joy, August Russell stood at the window in the police chief's office where Rock and Anton hadn't noticed, watching everything that happened on the training ground. When you arrive, you will find that August Russell's expression is very complicated.

　On Friday, ask for tickets as usual. Brothers who dislike short and weak fish heads can watch "The Rise of the Empire" by the ultimate flanker. It is 560 million words long enough——
