Chapter 1001: Against

"At present, our army can only deploy troops, compress the front and return to defense." A general said at this time.

"In addition, that is, our army must immediately deploy troops and regain the bridgehead position. Not only that, but also get the contact with the opposite bank as soon as possible. Two attacks together can defeat the Zhao army." At this time. A Qi army general clasped his hands and said.

"Time." An older general of the Qi army suddenly said at this time.

"Our army is much slower than Zhao Jun in terms of time. Our army should take action as soon as possible. But the deployment of troops. Our army. I am afraid. It is already difficult to surpass Zhao Jun." At this time, an older man A white beard general said.

After the old general said, everyone stopped talking. They understand very well that they are about to lose in time, and time cannot make up for this mistake anyway.

Tian Heng couldn't help it. The last force in his hand has been dispatched. All that was left in his hand were some infantry defending the camp, and these infantry could not assemble in a short period of time to attack the Zhao army. Everything has become so unfavorable.

Qi Jun is facing a catastrophic scene. They simply can't see where the future lies.

But at the border between Wei and South Korea, Chendi, this place, the newly born New Chen Republic is about to face the first battle, and they will fight for their own country.

The fighting between the two sides took place in the wild outside the city. On one side is a private army organized by the nobles of the Wei State, and their weapons are relatively backward. They are all cold weapons.

And the other party. It is the New Chen Republic Army formed by the militia forces assembled by the parliamentarians improvised. Referred to as the Republican Army.

"Boom, boom, boom." The private soldiers of the nobles of the Wei state became aggressive and aggressive. There are more than three thousand of them. Although the private soldiers of the nobles were not regular troops, they had also received part of their training. Although the formation is not comparable to the regular army to a certain extent, they believe that it is more than enough to deal with these militias.

"Wow. Wow." The private soldiers pressed over aggressively.

"Boom, boom, boom." The war drum on the chariot banged. People who are shocked have their hearts hurt.

"Those slaves still want to fight us." A nobleman in exquisite armor stood on the chariot and said.

"They have also written the battle book anyway, and everything has to be done according to the rules." A doorman on the chariot said respectfully.

"Humph." The nobles looked down upon the army organized by these civilians. They believe that they can completely defeat the army organized by these slaves by relying on their strength. In the eyes of the nobles, the status of common people is like slaves. Their status is Beijiang, and they are not worthy of all rights. They are extremely despised of the civilian class.

"Kill. Kill." At this time, the sword and axe hands of the nobleman of the Wei Kingdom walked in front with a heavy shield. They were specially prepared to deal with the opponent's muskets.

On the opposite side is the newly established Republican Army. Because the establishment time is too hasty. Since the parliament announced the establishment of the New Chen Republic. They began to rush to form their own army.

Military uniforms can’t keep up. Therefore, the Republican Army does not have uniform clothing. They all wear civilian clothes. The army of various colors put together makes them look untidy. In terms of momentum, they cannot compare with the regular army.

Most of the Republican Army was assembled by the local militias of the parliamentarians. The militias of various places are being assembled, and the battle has already begun. They took the initiative to write a battle book to the opponent, and the opponent actively faced it. The Republican Army hurriedly faced off. Fewer than 1,200 people from all militias gathered here. The number is much lower than their opponents. In terms of weapons, they are equipped with about 800 muskets of various types. There is no such heavy weapon as artillery.

In order to piece together the number of people, the parliament had to re-enable the government to issue orders to recruit more and more people to join the battle. They even learned about the South Korean army, and for the first time paid out military salaries to the recruited soldiers. Just get involved.

The government's call immediately attracted a large number of industrial workers to participate. Because the government lacks weapons, South Korean factory owners voluntarily provided their own weapons, and most of the taxes collected are also paid by them, but these are simply not enough. For this reason, the parliament had no choice but to sell some of the country's land as a reward. In this way, the factory owners exchanged a large amount of money for land, various facilities, and the owners of mountain forestry resources.

The factory owners got these things under the urging of the war.

But these funds are still not enough to support them in fighting such a war, but the war has already begun. As long as it does not end, they will continue to fight.

Under the call of the government and the lure of the army. A large number of workers, the civilian class joined in. The number of people suddenly expanded to more than 4,000. But it is not known how many of them have combat effectiveness. At the worst, the expansion of the number has brought about not many well-trained soldiers. Those civilians who have joined in, some people did not even receive military training. Over.

There are more than four thousand people in the Republican Army. There are nearly two thousand muskets, but some people don’t know how to fire them after they get a gun. The worst thing is that the Republican Army has a very wide range of weapons. Some are imported, some are given by the factory owner, and some are pieced together exotic products. There are all kinds of weapons. In addition to the different calibers produced, it is unclear whether these weapons can exert significant effects.

The most typical thing is that some muskets have no bullets, and some muskets have not been replaced with flint. Such weapons are not as good as cold weapons equipped by the opponent. Worst of all, the Republican Army did not have a cannon, and the army they formed was too hasty. There is no such thing as a heavy weapon in a hurry. Just imagine that they can't have such a weapon because their funds are not in place. In addition, they are too hasty to form, and the factory owners will not buy weapons such as artillery for self-defense. The artillery is too heavy.

In addition, they are extremely lack of officers, and the organizational structure of the army is extremely lack of coordination. Many people don't know their officers, and officers don't know how many people they have under them. What's the name and so on. There are too many such cases.

Although the Republican Army is large in number, they have too many shortcomings. Officers lack certain organizational skills, and soldiers lack training, especially combat experience. Many of them lack combat experience. In terms of weapons, although they have muskets, their lack of training, tactical arrangements, and heavy firepower has led to their weak combat effectiveness. After all, they are all militiamen, a new force, and it is normal for them to be weak.

"Stand well, hurry up, and all the gunmen will come to the front." At this time, a Republican officer shouted loudly. There was no rank mark. Many people didn't know how old this officer was. Fighting is nothing to them.

"Damn it. You stepped on my foot," said a Republican soldier holding a wooden stick. The soldier with a musket who walked by just looked back and walked away.

"Mother, I wish you an early death." The soldier cursed.

After the officers’ constant reprimands and calls, the Republican Army temporarily arranged their armed forces into a simple firing line. Behind the firing line were other armed personnel whose battle lines were not too neat. They were armed with all kinds of weapons. Spears, halberds, knives, sticks, hoes, etc. As long as they can kill someone, they will use them as weapons. The strongest combatants are the musketeers holding muskets at the front, and they are generally equipped with flintlocks. The effective range is about thirty steps.

"Boom boom boom boom." The battle drum on the opposite side became more and more rapid.

"Wow." The advancing private soldier was advancing.

"Stop." A person who looked like a private soldier shouted loudly.

"Huh." A neat voice. The ranks of private soldiers stopped. The front is a shield soldier with a short sword and a shield. Their main defense is the opponent's musket shot. The private soldier is equipped with a heavy shield made of a whole piece of bronze. A shield weighs forty to fifty catties. Such a weight would normally not be equipped to the regular army, but now they are going to attack the Musketeers. The bullets of the musket, especially the flintlock, had no way to deal with this heavy shield. Therefore, the private soldiers took out their heavyweight weapons with a lot of money.

Behind the shield soldiers were infantry soldiers with spears and halberds. They numbered more than 1,200. The number of shield soldiers is less than five hundred. And behind, there are three hundred archers. Archers are improvised, they are not professional archers.

The remaining less than 1,000 people became the private guards of the nobles, with short weapons and long-handled assassination weapons, and their important responsibility was to encircle their commander from being killed. They are equivalent to Chinese military guards.

In addition, the Chinese military escorts also have 20 chariots. They are not actually real chariots. They were temporarily refitted from chariots, but this is also another of their ace weapons.

Although the private army of the nobles of the Wei state is still a backward cold weapon armed force, they are still elite divisions. At the very least, some of them, because they don’t have to pay various taxes, they can accept some specialized military forces. Training, coupled with usual hunting behavior, is equivalent to military exercises. To a certain extent, private soldiers are no less inferior to regular troops.

In contrast, the Republican Army hastily faced off shortly after its establishment. Whether in terms of combat power or military training, it lags far behind this aristocratic private army. The situation of the war seemed to be detrimental to the Republican Army.

"Go forward." At this time, the nobleman shouted loudly.

"Boom. Boom." The war drum also rang at this time.
