Chapter 248 Chapter 7.30 Simple knowledge, large-scale application
In the main world, in the early days of science, platoon shooting tactics were the most classic tactics of the Victorian era.
The dense array of attacks laid down a full 35 million square kilometers of land on the blue planet.
Using this tactic requires a correct understanding of volley tactics.
First of all, the dense array does not make up for the low hit rate of the musket. In fact, the loose array is more suitable for the continuous output of firepower. Dense arrays are more vulnerable to solid shells and bullets during crossfire.
The dense formation is for impact and counterattack.
~
The theorem followed by the development of tactics in all periods of the earth:
They are all concentrated quickly, moving to parts of the battlefield, using more to attack less, defeating one part of the enemy first to gain time, and then turning around to attack another part.
The purpose of the lobster army forming a dense formation is to form a superior force and quickly get close to the opponent. In the process of advancing, they will not hesitate to bear part of the firepower and reach the front of the enemy's loose formation, forming the advantage of more enemies and fewer enemies, and defeating part of the opponent's array in one fell swoop. Then the bayonet assault was carried out, and the cavalry was flanked on both sides, causing the opponent to collapse as a whole.
Of course, it is better for the cavalry to do this task. If the infantry array loses morale and organization during the shooting process and cannot change the formation in time and become denser, the cavalry can break through in one wave.
In fact, in the era of platoon shooting, all commanders had to flexibly command the cavalry to charge at any time, or even make a charging gesture, forcing the opponent's infantry to form a formation and unable to maximize their firepower advantage.
In the Napoleonic era, a complete non-commissioned officer promotion system was established, and the enthusiasm and organization of the regiments improved across the ages, allowing the infantry formations to change from loose to dense formations very quickly. And the use of cavalry and artillery is also first-rate.
In contrast, the musketeers of the European feudal lords were forced to maintain a rigid formation. Let Napoleon's artillery get the most lives.
Until the First World War,
The European powers' requirements for the quality of their regiments are still to form a dense charging formation, carry the enemy's firepower, and penetrate the opponent's flank. ——Until, heavy machine guns placed at intervals of hundreds and dozens of meters appeared on the trench. The human-flesh attack was inflicted with heavy losses in the face of the steel rain. Europeans think that it is impossible to charge head-on, they need fire cover.
Of course, the fast formation has not been eliminated. When the tanks appeared, the infantry followed the tanks in a dense formation and rushed forward quickly. The infantry-tank tactic was soon used by the British to break through the trenches.
Later, mechanical development made tanks faster and faster. Infantry and tanks were out of touch. They had to be motorized or even fully mechanized. Armored vehicles were used to transport troops, and each vehicle had a radio. The convergence theorem is determined by the level of information integration.
~
Now on the Xinghui Peninsula, the Hai clan people do not have machine guns, and their main magic output troops are still staying in the main formation at the rear, not accompanying the charging troops.
The command of the Hai Clan is out of touch with the actual situation on the battlefield. ——In fact, the current tribal physique of the Sea Clan cannot give effective command.
Therefore, the musketry regiment of the Northern Territory did not encounter any obstacles during the assault. They successfully occupied the side of the first batch of shock waves from the Sea Tribe and immediately raised their muskets and began a ruthless output.
Compared with the militia revolvers, this is a regular rifle cartridge, using 20 mm caliber brass bullets.
The power of the projectile breaks through the second ring, which means the exit speed is 350 meters.
The musketeers wearing gas masks (to prevent the escape of fire elements) began firing volleys.
The bullet quickly flew over two hundred meters, and the heavy warhead caused a wave of sea tribes in front of the position to be harvested. There is no problem with the accuracy of bullet shooting here. The close combat units of the Hai Clan attack in a dense posture, which is not a three-three system.
With the continuous volley strikes, after ten rounds of volleys, the effect was outstanding. The first wave of the Sea Tribe's forwards was visibly reduced by more than half, especially the Nagas who led the charge of the sea beasts. They had all been knocked down and began to collapse.
A long line of loose formations, and in less than seven minutes from the time of firing to the battle, decisive results appeared on the battlefield.
The militiamen in the barrier immediately broke up and cheered after seeing the Hai Clan being attacked from both sides.
After the gate in front of the fortress was opened, the militiamen, fully equipped with full-body protection and armed with bayonets, began to rush out to deal with the last remaining enemies.
~
At this moment, the sea clan's conch sounded again.
The troops preparing to rescue the front line of the Hai Clan set off, but by the time the Sea Clan commander made this decision, it was already too late. By this time, the Hai Clan front line had been defeated.
On the Northern Territory side, after handing over their backs to the protection of the motorcycle rider brigade, they also began to quickly form formations. The originally wide and loose front quickly formed small groups based on the center, and began to move with tanks as the core.
As the steam crawlers rotated, the one-two-one chants drowned out the hum of the steam engine boiler.
The horizontal formations of the Northern Industrial Territory's Earth-Breaking Legion quickly formed small square formations based on multiple center benchmarks, and the small square formations quickly moved closer.
This freed up space for the Sea Clan to rush towards the barrier, forming a phalanx with a span of 500 meters on the side and starting to maneuver towards the left wing.
When the Breaking Ground Group maneuvered again, moved from the front and began to make a detour, the thirty three-pound gun firepower group dispatched by the barrier on the original frontal battlefield was pushed up to the front line by the militiamen's small steam engines and began to fire. Shrapnel shells were thrown at the front of the second wave of the Sea Clan's attack. The naked eye could see that the red steel bullets that broke through the second ring hit the small and medium-sized units, harvesting a large area immediately.
The large sea beast unit weighing one or two tons and wearing shell armor does not lose much health. But the twisting bodies were very slow. By the time they hit the front line, these artillery pieces had already finished firing their ammunition and retreated back to the barrier.
~
Half an hour later, the second wave of fighting began.
The Hai Clan activated about 30,000 troops, dispatched cannon fodder three or four times the previous size, and more importantly, dispatched high-level troops. Dozens of war turtles weighing more than ten tons, like buses, rushed towards the barrier with trembling steps.
With each step taken, there were fluctuations of sand and dust on the ground.
Behind the war turtle were the mage troops. As they advanced, these murlocs flashed their staffs, and a stream of snowflakes began to float in the air. Then a huge ice spear appeared in the mouth of the war turtle, ready to eject.
Of course, Carret knew these spells well. Few of the energy-shaping spells had a killing range of more than fifteen meters, and the range was also shorter than that of artillery.
Under the legend, the battlefield is still a competition of discipline and logistics.
~
Twenty minutes after leaving the battlefield, the Musketeers quickly stopped moving away and began to prepare to attack the flanks of the second wave of Hai Tribes that hit the barrier.
The tanks lined up one after another, and a few hundred meters of circular wire appeared on both sides like wings spread out. The corps team leader pulled it open to form an obstacle.
The musketeers used this as a barrier and began to shoot at the magic troops.
When the Sea Tribe saw the rows of heavy steam tanks approaching, they only mobilized three giant turtles on the flanks to counterattack. Those ice spears that could be nailed to the earth walls of the fortress slid away when they encountered the obtuse-angled baffle in front of the tanks. .
And of course the tanks have to fight back.
Tanks No. 09, No. 23, No. 34 and No. 35 took the lead in firing.
On the steel track of the tank, an oil-charged siege crossbow three meters long and as thick as a human arm was pushed up. Then six steel wires were roped to the ground, and steam power was used to start winding. Amidst the creaking metal trembling sound, the tank's crossbow The machine was full.
With a sharp sound, the crossbow arrow was fired.
Spanning a distance of a full four hundred meters, two of the four warheads hit a war turtle. One of the steel crossbow arrows directly penetrated the war turtle's armor. The other three also broke apart, causing the entire war turtle and its surroundings to break. The driver fell directly into the sea of fire.
War turtles have magic resistance and are not easily burned to death. After being grilled, the turtle's shell will only turn black. However, if the fuel cannot be extinguished within ten minutes, it will not be able to return to the battle.
After crippling a war turtle, another group of tanks also opened fire, and there were four more streams of light. One war turtle was trapped in the flames.
Three minutes later, the third war turtle was trapped in the flames, and they all began to dig into the ground and bury them in the sand to extinguish them.
The flanks of this second wave were once again in flames.
~
With the battle like this, the artillery output was no longer necessary. The tanks all moved to the front. The northern musketeers began to walk behind the tanks. Whenever they stopped, they quickly formed a horizontal formation in the gap between the tanks and began to fire.
During this process, thirty motorcycle riders held knight swords and charged back and forth on the flanks of the Musketeers. This was a position specially designed to attack the Sea Clan. With a telescopic distance of six meters, a large number of people could be killed. small group troops.
~
Behind the barrier, Karet watched all this. The waves of the Sea Troops were like a big piece of tofu, being beaten to the point of collapse by the "Earth-Breaking Musketeers" who were like small hammers. The old nobles watching the battle around him were silent.
Carrette turned to Robin and said: "Order the militiamen on the front right barrier to retreat to the second line. Go there in person to stabilize them."
Robin took the order, but asked with some confusion: "Excuse me, what is the meaning of retreat?" - The execution of orders is necessary in industrial territories, but under certain conditions, the executor can ask about the meaning of the order.
Carrette knocked on his helmet and said, "If you don't pretend to suffer some losses, how can you lure these salty fish into a trap! Give them some hope, but you can't scare them away."
Robin: "Oh!" He understood that his lord was going to dig a hole.
Then he opened the teleportation bracelet, and with a swish, he went to the battlefield on the east side.
~
After pushing away Robin, Carret glanced at many of the nobles of the Star-Moon Peninsula, including Heatherlin.
In this battle, the Northern Territory demonstrated its side perfectly. Although the style is different from that of the knights on the mainland, they are equally elite and disciplined, and can still fight hard against foreign teams that mix magic and giant beasts.
As the "old father", Carret wanted to establish authority for Robin, the new provincial governor who was about to lead changes on the peninsula.
The local nobles came to scold "Robin is a lucky boy" behind his back. This kind of remarks must be stopped. Robin now represents the authority of northern industry.
Of course, Carrette was also warning Heatherlin that when she first fell in love and married Robin, she shouldn't half-heartedly compare Robin to each other. ~She herself no longer has any capital, and now only Robin represents the will for change on the peninsula.
Carret said to these people with a cold face: "The sea tribe is the enemy. I will deceive and lure them. You are currently the partners of my northern territory. Everything related to the development plan of Xinghui Peninsula will be open to you. Of course, because of honesty, you can directly see the unsatisfactory process of the things we want to promote! So everyone who joins remembers that because we are friends, we can see the bad and discuss it."
~
Just like that, three hours later, under the "cover" of the Northern Territory Musket Corps.
The militia at the first barrier retreated to the second barrier area in an orderly manner. The sea tribe paid the price of tens of thousands of corpses and finally took the first step.
Seeing this, the generals of the sea tribe immediately recovered a wave of morale, increased their efforts, and pushed the main corps from the coastline towards the human side. This was mainly to digest the bodies of the dead sea tribe slaves. Ensure that the successors of the sea tribe army are strong. Of course, it is also greedy and does not want to let go after biting the bait.
Kosino (merman warrior), he patrolled the battlefield.
Compared with those Nagas, his appearance is definitely handsome and tall enough. During this battle, all twenty Titan turtles were hit by the rocket crossbows of the human race without exception, and suffered heavy losses. This made him think that this battle should not have happened at all.
Oh, many chief priests insisted on carrying out this war. Any doubters are questioning the sacred will of Lord "Bolans".
When patrolling the battlefield, some fishmen gathered together like zombies and began to fight for something, forming a chaotic blockage. Kosino hurriedly came to suppress them, raised the sea king fork and threw away the fishmen who blocked the way. After shocking these beasts under their minds, he began to look at these things that caused chaos.
Twenty minutes later.
Kosino looked at the small cylinder in front of him. These were all small metal boxes. There seemed to be something in the box.
A lot of them were seized from the trenches. After breaking them open, there were some food inside, but after breaking them open, the metal on the box shell was very sharp. Many warriors were injured until a sea tribe tore open the lid along the pull ring, and everyone found that they could pour it out easily.
Kosino opened the can, and looking at the box wrapped completely in metal, he couldn't help but sigh at the abundance of land creatures. He felt that it was necessary to march forward. Even if the sea people could not complete the order of Lord Blue Dragon, they had to plunder some supplies from humans.
~
Time went by in the evening,
The airships in the northern territory detected the sea people's army, and they had begun to completely advance inland from multiple coastlines, trying to surround the defense line of tens of thousands of human troops from all directions, and began to send intelligence with electric sparks.
After listening to the knocking sound of the telegram, Carrett exhaled without waiting for the telegraph operator to translate it, and said to the staff with a smile: "So, they didn't see the danger."
The staff said: "Yes, sir, the summary of the tactical qualities of the sea people is basically still in the tribal state. There is no ability to judge and deal with more detailed battlefield conditions."
The so-called more detailed battlefield conditions here are that the human troops retreated in an orderly manner, and the dead bodies were all war horses, not human bodies. Of course, it is often the fish puppets that rush forward to deal with the corpses. After being eaten by the group of ocean ghouls, no useful details can be seen.
Carret waved his hand and said: Send me an aerial observation balloon every fifteen minutes. Chemical department, keep an eye on the special tank warehouse for me.
~
Yellow-green gas, slightly heavier than air, with a relative molecular number of 71. What is it?
This is the knowledge that arcane masters know in the apprentice enlightenment stage, and when releasing acid bombs, they are also familiar with how to use sea salt to prepare this kind of spellcasting items.
As for industrialization, it is to produce this simplest gas in excess of production.
This is why, when Carret deployed the army, he placed a large number of sea slave cannon fodder troops on the sand table so lightly.
~
During the day, the northern industrial territory did not release this big move because the wind direction was wrong. The sea breeze blew from the ocean to the land.
But at night, the airflow at this time seemed to be blowing from the land to the ocean.
As the sea tribe used a lot of weather magic during the day, the land cooled down too quickly, and a lot of water vapor evaporated and accelerated the land temperature to drop faster.
That's right, the sea tribe warlocks were happy to use magic, but in the end they accelerated the arcane counterattack.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the wind direction changed rapidly. After a day of war, the smell of blood and gunpowder gradually moved away. The commanders of the sea tribe opened their cold-blooded pupils in the dark night, and batches of night walkers entered the camouflage state, ready to return the casualties suffered during the day at night.
More than 200,000 troops of various colors of the sea tribe have left the sea and entered the land extensively. They are preparing to encircle on both sides. But this is destined to be an unattainable dream.
When they tried to encircle, clusters of flares appeared in the sky, and the magnesium powder burned evenly, and the white light shone on the ground, and also on the surprised faces of many sea tribes.
The sea tribe found that there was fog in front of them. This fog was different from the white fog on the ocean. It was green and very thick, rolling towards them like flowing water, uh, drowning them.
