This Qing is wrong

Chapter 103
"what?
Among the war puppets of the demon Taoist Li Changqing, our soldiers appeared? ! "

Shang Keai confirmed with a shocked face.

"Reporting to my lord, the monster Li Changqing only summoned puppets wearing our soldiers' battle robes and holding the same weapons, not our Qing soldiers.

Now Li Changqing's war puppets of the demon way no longer march forward in a rigid battle line as they did at the beginning, but form a scattered line of troops, advancing towards our army's position while firing cold shots. Big, low morale..."

The military attache of the Qing army who came to report did not dare to hide anything, and told Shang Keai about the dire situation on the front line.

It's almost like saying that the front line is about to be overwhelmed, so I implore Shang Keai to order the withdrawal of troops!

The forest rogues and Wachina riflemen that Li Changqing put in were "skirmishers" who didn't know how to form a formation, only knew how to fight guerrillas, and had accurate marksmanship.

Their offensive formation was looser than that of the Portuguese pikemen and the Russian shooting army before, and the killing effect of the shotgun shells of the Qing army's Shenwei invincible generals dropped by not a little bit.

And the gunner is often shot coldly by forest wanderers and Vachina riflemen who sneak up!
This group of historical origins is the systematic enemy army of Native Americans. They all marched forward with their waists bent, and their concealment was very good. Those artillerymen did point kills.

After a long time, the artillerymen of the Qing army no longer dared to fire, and they all shrank back. The generals of the Qing army pressed hard, lying on their stomachs behind the artillery barracks, unable to reload the shells, let alone fire...

As for the musketeers of the Qing army, the situation was not much better, because they found that their marksmanship was not as good as those puppets!

The historical archetypes of the Forest Wanderer and the Wachinese Rifleman were the best marksmen of the Iroquois and Sioux.

At that time, Native American tribal fighters could not produce their own ammunition and did not have many muskets, so they could only improve their marksmanship as much as possible to deal with the enemy.

Moreover, the rare muskets will also be allocated to those Indian tribe fighters who are talented in shooting.

Because of this, the top musketeers among these Native Americans are comparable to the elite hunters and light infantry in Europe at the same time!
Both the British colonists and later the Continental Army of the United States suffered from these Native American shooters.

It was not until later that the United States of America fully entered an industrialized society, and guns also advanced to the breech stage, that the American Army relied on its absolute firepower superiority to completely defeat the Native Americans.

To make matters worse for the generals of the Qing army on the front line, the arquebus soldiers who appeared later appeared in exactly the same clothes as the Qing army's musketeers. After seeing the successful skirmish tactics of the forest wanderers and Wachina riflemen, they also began to behave differently. Follow the example, spread out and move forward.

Although these Qing arquebus soldiers were not as good at marksmanship as the Forest Wanderers and Wachina Riflemen, their scattered formation reduced the killing effect of the Qing army's firepower a lot, and they were still unable to kill a large number of enemy troops in the system.

For the fearless system enemy army, if they cannot be killed in large numbers, their combat effectiveness will not be reduced.

It was this simple skirmisher line tactics coupled with a group of soldiers with good marksmanship and thieves, which made the Qing army's position riddled with holes.

Although the systematic enemy army has not set foot on the artillery positions of the Qing army, the Qing army has already fallen into a disadvantage in this confrontation. If it weren't for the slow advance of the systematic enemy troops in skirmish lines, the Qing army's positions would have fallen long ago. up.

However, no matter how slow the advancing speed of the enemy's skirmish line is, it is gradually moving forward, and as the Qing army's musketeers lose more and more, there will be fewer and fewer musketeers who dare to fight back, and the suppression of firepower will weaken. The advancement speed of the skirmish line of the system enemy will naturally increase.

In fact, to deal with this kind of skirmish line, the dense tactical phalanx of line infantry cannot deal with it, and only cavalry can restrain the skirmish line.

Preferably fast light cavalry units.

The skirmisher line tactics mean that the infantry has no formation to rely on, and the saber facing the light cavalry is not much better than the lamb to be slaughtered, and the light cavalry moving at high speed is difficult to be mass-killed by the skirmish line that cannot form a salvo firepower.

Shang Kei immediately realized this after listening to the report from the military officer on the front line.

However, all the cavalry in the camp have been assembled and are orderly assigning search areas. If they are asked to change their mission at this time, how can they search for Li Changqing's gang?

When Shang Keai was hesitating, the first military attache of the Qing army pleaded anxiously: "My lord, the frontline team can't hold out for long. Once the frontline team of thousands of people collapses, it will cause a very serious chain effect. We The morale of the large troops is likely to avalanche.

Nowadays, many soldiers already know how powerful the war puppets of Yao Dao Li Changqing are. If we are no longer able to resist the attack of Yao Dao Li Changqing's war puppets, no one at the bottom will dare to fight anymore. "

Shang Keai sighed helplessly after hearing this, he knew that this time he would not be able to defeat the demon Li Changqing.

Shang Keai chose the latter wisely between desperately searching for Li Changqing, the demon way, and retaining the main force of the Qing army.

He couldn't bear the consequences of the main force of the Qing army's infantry being defeated!
What's more, if the cavalry spread out, they don't know how long it will take to find the trace of the demon Li Changqing.

Since there is no way to find traces of the demon Li Changqing, Shang Kei can only bring back the main force of the Qing army.

Shang Kei still has a strategic view of the overall situation. He knows that after this retreat, the prestige of the Qing army in Guangdong Province will be completely lost in front of the monster Li Changqing.

It won't be long before the "gossip" that tens of thousands of the main force of the Qing army was defeated by the demon Li Changqing alone will spread throughout Guangdong Province.

It doesn't matter if he takes the blame, but what kind of cuteness is he, who is qualified to carry such a heavy cauldron?
If there is no accident, the decline in prestige will eventually fall on the Pingnan Palace.

And on the side of the Holy One, I don't know how to explain it...

I heard that the Holy Majesty has been thinking about cutting down the feudal clan.

Shang Kexi, as the brother of Pingnan King Shang Kexi, naturally knows that Shang Kexi is a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty. If the Holy Majesty wants to cut down the vassal, Shang Kexi will definitely ask to resign and return to his hometown in Liaodong to retire.

But Shang Zhixin in Shangfan is a strong opponent.

You know, Shangfan eats a lot of food in Guangdong Province, and there are a lot of generals and generals who are not willing to cut the fan!
Thinking about it, Shang Keai suddenly flashed a thunder in his mind.

"Great chaos in Guangdong Province is not necessarily a bad thing for us."

At this time, Shang is cute, and four big words come to mind - to raise the bandits to respect themselves!
