Struggle in Russia

Vol 3 Chapter 615: "witchcraft"

Dumb goose, no, Paskovic was completely stupid, because what he saw was completely different from what he expected. It is not that he has never seen a fierce battle. It is not that he has never fought a battle ten times more tragic than this year.

In his eyes, the corpse is nothing more than a pediatrics. When necessary, he can sleep and eat with his head resting on the corpse.

But today's battle was completely different from the ones he had experienced. It took at least ten days and a half months to cause such heavy casualties in the past, and it would only have such an effect that it had to be repeatedly fought.

But today it’s better. At least three thousand people fell forever in just a quarter of an hour. How much more time will it take in a quarter of an hour? According to his previous experience, there is not enough time to fire two shots at this point. How could such a heavy injury be caused?

But the corpses everywhere in front told him clearly that this was true. If he didn't make adjustments quickly, in a quarter of an hour, his young man would be slaughtered!

what to do?

Paskovic doesn't seem to be a bit silly, but in fact his brain is running at a high speed. Although he was shocked, Ben's military literacy is still there recently. A veteran like him has nothing else, it is still possible to stay calm at the critical moment.

"Speed ​​up the charge! Don't worry about the formation!"

Finally Paskovic issued an order that made him faceless. He had always emphasized the formation of the formation before, but it is still him who personally denies the role of the queue.

It was very painful for him to make this decision, because Kornilov and Nasimov were watching him, and they were ashamed to lose face to grandma's house.

But he can't control that much for the time being. If he doesn't charge quickly, he will be even more embarrassed if the news goes back to St. Petersburg and Duke Mikhail.

The order was quickly communicated, but to Kornilov and Nasimov, the order was meaningless, and it would even accelerate the death of frontline soldiers.

The reason is simple. Compared with the British and French infantry who use the Miner rifle on the opposite side, Paskovic’s army still uses the smooth-bore flintlock with front-loading. This kind of old rifle is not only slow to load but also inferior in accuracy. Opening the queue can reduce the damage effect of enemy artillery fire, but it also destroys the linear tactics that the smoothbore flintlock relies on.

Without a dense formation, the accuracy of the musket at a distance of 100 meters is very worrying, while the British and French allied forces equipped with the Migne rifle on the opposite side can name the gray animals one by one at 300 meters, and the rate of fire is almost ten times that of the musket. Times.

Such a huge gap determines that smooth-bore Flintlockers without a dense formation are a dish, and continuing to charge is a dead end.

The correct way is to retreat immediately, stop this meaningless attempt, and move on, there will be more than three to five thousand casualties, and all these tens of thousands of gray animals have to be filled in!

It's just that Kornilov just wanted to remind him, Nasimov next to him stepped on his foot without leaving a trace, and then gave him a wink of dissuasion, the meaning was very clear: Don't speak! Useless!

Kornilov was stunned, then sighed suddenly, turned his head and said nothing after all. The reason is very simple. Looking at Paskovic, would you listen to their persuasion?

Obviously impossible, even if Kornilov didn’t speak, once he spoke, it would irritate Lao Qiuba, making Lao Qiuba mistakenly think it was cynicism. Not only would he not listen to persuasion, he would be desperate to send more soldiers. Go to die to prove how powerful and powerful he is.

Kornilov didn’t mean to talk to Lao Qiuba. In order to avoid more serious casualties, he could only choose to shut up, but his heart was dripping blood, because of a foolish old fool who had thousands of lives. It's in vain, what is this!

On the high platform, except for Kornilov, who was silent, the faces of the other generals were not good-looking. Most of them were shocked. They had the most intuitive understanding of the lethality of blasting bombs, and they basically came to the same conclusion. The conclusion-we also want blasting bombs! The more the better!

Of course, there are very few people like Kornilov and Nasimov who have seen more things, that is, linear tactics are probably going to be eliminated, and the dense formation in front of blasting bombs is simply nothing. So what do you do closely?

It’s just that there are too few such clever people, because by Paskovic’s side, his henchmen are discussing the significance of the formation of the phalanx. Even if they have just witnessed a massacre, these old stubborns still stubbornly believe that the phalanx Shape and linear tactics are still meaningful, or particularly important.

In their words, this is the life of the infantry, and the basis for the survival of the infantry. How can we fight without a dense formation and linear tactics?

But immediately these old stubborn faces were severely slapped by the British and French forces. Under Paskovic’s order, the remaining Russian troops on the battlefield began a death assault. They held their rifles and held their bayonet towards the enemy’s position. Rushing over, you can hear Ula's shouts from them. There is nothing to blame for the courage of these poor people.

It's just that after entering the effective range of the Miner rifle, even if their formation has loosened, they are still useless. The rain of bullets beat them upside down, and the continuous shooting sound made the old stubborn people stunned.

Because they have never seen a rifle with such a fast rate of fire, it can shoot almost four or five times per minute, and even a skilled gray animal on the battlefield can hardly shoot once in three minutes. Most recruits fire in five minutes. Not a shot!

Not only the fast rate of fire~www.readwn.com~, they were shocked by the accuracy. The British and French soldiers from a distance of 300 meters could make an accurate hit. Under the effective command of the lieutenants, they fired in a volley of guns. Pieces of fallen down gray animals, almost every step forward gray animals have to pay a heavy price.

"This is magic!"

"No! This is witchcraft! It's dark witchcraft!"

Several panicked old stubborns were already mad, feeling incredible and terrified at the rain of bullets from the Migne rifle. They have no way to understand how this is done, so they can only blame it on magic or witchcraft.

Finally Kornilov couldn't help it, taunting: "This is not magic, nor witchcraft, but a new technology! The new breech reloading rifle can shoot quickly and has extremely high rifling accuracy. What's the matter? Surprising!"

"I wrote a letter to the Admiralty last year, requesting a full replacement of this new rifle, but some people just disagree, saying that the existing weapons are advanced enough and do not need to be improved! What about now?" Remember this website, Www. biquxu. Com, easy to read next time, or enter "" on Baidu to enter this site
