Chapter 123 The Garrison Regiment Takes the Main Attack
"Our second regiment has taken over this mission."
"Why are you two united? My army has already been assembled outside."
Jiang Mu had just finished speaking. Both of them were thinking about starting the first battle on the battlefield. This was an opportunity to show their faces. Although the two infantry brigades did not have many troops, it was still the first confrontation in the Battle of Haicheng.
enemy.
"What are you trying to grab? The entire Third Division belongs to us. The Third Regiment assembled relatively quickly. This time, we will hand it over to the Third Regiment. You can deal with them before dark. The Second Regiment is preparing behind the Third Regiment.
Stand by and be ready to support the Third Regiment at any time."
Jiang Mu handed over the first battle to these two men because he also wanted to see the combat effectiveness of the security regiment.
In accordance with the new military reorganization policy.
The ratio of new recruits to veterans in the Second Regiment of the Suppression Army is one to one, with 3,000 recruits followed by 3,000 veterans.
The ratio between the Second Guard Regiment and the Third Guard Regiment is one to three. There are 1,500 veterans and 4,500 recruits. This number is already a bit dangerous.
However, if 6,000 men attack the Dongdi Infantry Brigade of 2,000 men, they will be victorious no matter what.
The reason why the Second Regiment was placed in a support position was because Jiang Mu knew very well that the Third Division would definitely send troops to support.
"Reporting to the leader, the 2nd and 3rd Brigade of Dongdi Kingdom have arrived at Wacun."
After listening to the report from their subordinates, the three of them came to the front of the map. Wa Village was already outside the support range of the opponent's naval guns.
"Captain Ma, do you need artillery support from our side?"
The superiors did not send heavy artillery regiments for support, so the superiors must have their own ideas, so these three infantry regiments could only rely on their own subordinate artillery companies.
According to the organizational structure of the anti-lundering army, each infantry regiment has an artillery company, and each artillery company has twelve 75mm field guns.
In addition, each infantry battalion also has an artillery platoon, equipped with four 75mm field guns.
So each infantry regiment has a total of twenty-four artillery pieces.
If it weren't for the insufficient number of artillery, Gao Shaoyi would have continued to increase the number of artillery.
But even so, twenty-four artillery pieces greatly exceeded the number of Dongdi's troops.
Dongdi State's brigade-level troops do not carry artillery. Only regiment-level troops have artillery. An infantry regiment of more than 4,000 people only has a pitiful six artillery pieces. Moreover, the technical gap between it and the suppressing army is more than 40 years.
.
A division of the Dongdi Kingdom only has about thirty artillery pieces in total. You must know that the strength of the Dongdi Kingdom's division is 22,000 to 24,000 people. An infantry regiment of the Suppression Army has 6,000 people and 2
With fourteen artillery pieces, coupled with their technological leadership, the ratio of firepower between the two sides can be imagined.
"It's not necessary at the moment. If necessary, I will explain it with a flag."
Ma Qiang didn't dare to say too much. If there were only these two infantry brigades, his own artillery could handle it, but if there were supporting troops, they would need the support of brother troops.
The two infantry brigades of the Dongdi Kingdom were purely pathfinding teams. The two infantry brigades were about fifty meters apart and came out of the Dongdi concession in a battle formation.
Ma Qiang had already arrived at the front line immediately.
Looking through the telescope, Dongdi's field division is indeed different from the embassy guard.
The march was very measured, and scouts were constantly sent out.
"The group leader and these people want to enter the village, right?"
Ma Weimin, deputy commander of the third regiment, said.
"We cannot give them a chance to enter the village. The folks in Dawang Village and Xiaowang Village died at the hands of those foreigners. Order the artillery to be ready for battle and to obey my orders at any time. The first and second battalions moved to the left and right wings. The third battalion and the cavalry company directly under the regiment headquarters are preparing for the main attack."
Thinking of the villagers from Dawang Village and Xiaowang Village, Ma Qiang felt a pain in his heart. How could they be allowed to enter the village now?
"Adjust the shooting elements."
On the artillery position, twelve artillery pieces were already aimed at the Dongdi soldiers in the distance, waiting for the order from above.
Our artillery has a range about 3 kilometers further than theirs, so it is very safe now.
For a base number of five shells, shoot three base numbers first according to the above requirements.
The marching queue of Dongdi Kingdom.
"Captain, there is a village ahead. Let's go into the village and take a rest."
A Dongdi soldier nodded and bowed.
They have long heard that the people of the Daqian Empire are relatively cowardly. As long as they can rush to the village, all kinds of valuable things will be theirs, and those flower girls can also enjoy it.
"idiot."
The captain came up and slapped him in the face.
"We are exploring the path for the entire division. The division commander has made up his mind to deal with the three surrounding infantry regiments before the other two divisions arrive. Where will we have time to have fun? Continue to send out the top troops."
Captain Inoue was born among the civilians of the Dongdi Kingdom. In this country, the highest officer that ordinary people can serve is the commander of the regiment. If he can successfully annihilate the three infantry regiments surrounding the Suppression Army this time, then he can also Promoted to captain.
Captain Inoue rode his war horse and used a telescope to observe the surrounding fields. It was said that he had arrived at the station of the suppressing army, but why he still didn't see the suppressing army?
There aren't even landmines.
According to the original defense strategy, mines should be planted around here, but the Suppression Army is strong enough, so why should we adopt a defensive strategy? If the landmines are not removed in time after the landmines are planted, it will also be a threat to us.
Let's just fight hard, who told us to be strong with our fists!
"Patrol cavalry of the Daqian Empire!"
The leading soldiers of the Dongdi Kingdom said loudly that they had been out for more than an hour and finally saw the army of the Daqian Empire.
"The cavalry team comes up to me and kill them."
Captain Inoue said happily that he also had a cavalry team of more than 60 people. Seeing that there were only about ten patrolling cavalry on the opposite side, he wanted to get off to a good start.
The soldiers of the Dongdi Kingdom were also used to gelatin and never thought that they were no match for the soldiers of the Daqian Empire.
In their impression, as long as we rush forward bravely, these soldiers of the Daqian Empire will definitely kneel down and surrender.
But the situation at the scene made them a little confused. A dozen soldiers from the Daqian Empire rushed over. Is there something wrong with their minds?
All the cavalrymen of Dongdi Kingdom waved their sabers.
Why didn't the soldiers of the Daqian Empire take out their sabers?
Jiang Mu from a distance also watched this scene happily.
Do we use sabers?
Are you kidding me?
In addition to a long gun, each of our soldiers has two pistols in his waist...
