Chapter 226 Rolling Exercises

Lin Man and the other two were not self-aware. Although they were still confident in the combat effectiveness of their private troops, they were not as good as they believed that they could defeat the field brigade in the first battle sequence of the company. However, if they fought with the militia division, they would be defeated if they won. If they accidentally lost, they would be completely lost. Therefore, they designated to fight with the second battle sequence of the company, that is, the soldiers of the garrison division. In order to be more safe, they also chose a newly formed black brigade.

In the Fourth Black Brigade of the Garrison Division, most of the soldiers were made up of black slaves purchased by the company. However, there were almost two battalions of soldiers, including Chinese, Korean and Japanese people of this era. In general, this is a unit composed of slaves in the company's nominal form. Originally, this brigade belonged to the militia combat sequence, but because of its brave combat, the only few opportunities to fight made great contributions every time. As Xiao Lin planned to continue to expand, he upgraded them.

The brigade commander of this brigade was not a good person. Lin Xin, the former top scholar of the Qing Dynasty, was now a corporate colonel. Not long after he arrived at the company, he discovered something wrong with Xiao Lin and the so-called Indians. Xiao Lin fooled him, thinking that these were really descendants of the Shang Dynasty in the past, and the Xiao family came here to organize them. After being brainwashed by Xiao Lin, Lin Xin completely settled down here. During the training, due to his previous experience, he did not choose to join the ranks of civil servants anymore, but went on the path of military officers.

The Yanhuang Trading Company is different from the Qing Dynasty, which inherited many Ming dynasties. It does not value culture over military affairs. If it is really counted, the treatment of soldiers is better than that of some minor officials. Lin Xin was originally because he did not have any strength in his hands, except for an official, and did not even have a caring personal guard, so he fell to this point because he offended a powerful man. Later, he escaped from the mainland because of his lack of force in his hands. If I had not been out of the middle of Ijik, the outcome would have been bad in the future.

Therefore, he had a terrible persistence in the army. Because he had not made any contribution, his training and assessment results were even far superior to Apache, James and Babu. After thinking about it, Xiao Lin had to arrange him into the Third Militia Brigade at that time. At that time, the brigade was basically full of black slaves. When Xiao Lin wanted to rely on the blacks to form a garrison brigade, he took over the training and found that this idea was really unrealistic.

The black slaves whose backbone was removed by slave traders were not suitable candidates for warriors at all. Although the garrison division was not the first battle sequence, it still had very important combat tasks. When there was not enough manpower, it was responsible for supporting the field division. When there was enough manpower, it was also responsible for guarding the company's territory frontlines or important cities. However, it was difficult for black people to jump after a whip.

There was no choice but to convert them into militia brigades in the end. In this way, this place became the place where the officers of the company were most reluctant to come. It was too hard. The effort required to command a battle was more than twice as much as that of other militia divisions. One by one, those who applied for transfer were afraid that they would die of fatigue in no time. Lin Xin brought the people who were in the same batch of the company and completed the military training in the same batch. Unexpectedly, in just two months, the brigade completely changed.

It's probably "a soldier, a general, a nest". Although Lin Xin was a scholar before, he is now a terrifying wolf. He is smart, wise, and treats the enemy extremely cruelly. Under the leadership of these wolf, the black brigade has joined many Asians who dare to fight for their lives. They may not look very good in normal times, but when they arrive on the battlefield, Xiao Lin is attracted by the performance. However, Lin Man and the others were fooled by the appearance of the black brigade and actually chose such a powerful combat brigade.

Because Lin Man didn't know much about how to do exercises, Xiao Lin assisted them in making a planning plan. Of course, in order to convince these people, Xiao Lin was under the supervision of the other party since then and there would be no chance to reveal the plan. Both sides made their own choices. When the British saw that the machine gun was still weak, they chose the defense party and entered the exercise venue first to build a defensive position. It has to be said that their learning ability is still good.

The trench system is well-built, with each passage convenient for one's own way, and at the same time, it is possible to avoid enemy artillery attacks as much as possible. The anti-aircraft holes are set up very reasonably and the number is sufficient. The artillery positions are also good, separated from three places and are mutually supportive. Even barbed wire fences, they learned about them, made a batch of barbed wire fences, and surrounded the front of the position money. Apart from the absence of mortars and machine guns, they were no less than the army in the early 19th century.

Lin Xin asked his adjutant to enter the battlefield with great fanfare. Three thousand soldiers guarded their bodies tightly, without giving the British a chance to attack. The army came directly to the British trench fortifications and set up a strong attack. Lin Xin, the real brigade commander, actually took the charge company inside the brigade and quietly touched the back of the British position. Along the way, the British arranged enough secret whistles, but they were all discovered by Lin Xin and touched them one by one.

The secret whistle is not as good as the open whistle. Because it is necessary to ensure absolute concealment, the shift change time is several times that of the open whistle, so it has never been discovered. The adjutant started attacking with great fanfare, with chalk bullets flying all over the sky, and there are judges on their respective positions. All those who are judged to have lost their combat power cannot cheat. The shooting accuracy of the black brigade is no worse than that of the three garrison brigades in the previous three, but the private soldiers also came down from the battlefield, and for a moment, they actually fought to the point of being equal.

However, the black brigade did not try to hit the barbed wire. It was not until night, when it was dark outside, that the British commander discovered the troops. What color is the black man? It’s black, now at night, the black man stood in the middle of the night without showing his eyes and teeth, and he might not be able to see it when he walked in. The commander guessed correctly, Lin Xin was the one who made the move. Because of the particularity of black man, he was really the best candidate for night attacks in this era.

According to Lin Xin's arrangement, the adjutant specially selected a group of capable black soldiers, covering their eyes and mouths with night vision instruments and masks. He put on a black combat uniform, held a black painted weapon, and quietly approached the barbed wire from the dull point. The British were still playing with steam at this time, without flashlights, and how far can they shine with torches alone? The black soldiers quietly touched them, and soon they cut the British barbed wire with tools.

If the barbed wire mesh is to play a role in blocking the enemy, it must be placed at their maximum effective range. Therefore, the British barbed wire mesh is 95 meters away from the first trench in the yamen, and can only watch with the faint moonlight. When the British commander found the troops and ordered people to approach and check, a chalk bullet hit the chest of the British people leaving the trench. If they were hit in such a place, there would naturally be no way out.

The British soldier could only curse and threw down his gun, not daring to say anything, walked out from the left, came to the person who had "sacrificed" before, and continued to observe the direction of the exercise. He killed his gun with an anti-inflammatory device. Although he heard the gun, no one saw a gun shooting anywhere. The British were awakened in front of him, and the one behind was also woken up by the officers who had driven over. Just as he was about to enter their respective positions, four huge gaps were opened in front of the wire mesh at the same time.

Mortars fired one after another, and shot into the trenches with empty bags. The assessors could only run around and ordered the people who were hit to leave consciously. The British put their minds in front, but did not notice that they had set up a cliff behind the position and put down a tough nylon rope. They thought that they would not be attacked from behind by people when they built the position against the cliff. However, they did not expect that the company's army infiltration was very powerful. In particular, Lin Xin also went to Sam's Night Owl Special Reconnaissance Camp to obtain the scriptures.

Lin Xin personally led the charge company to rush from behind the enemy. As soon as it landed, he immediately alternated cover and touched the British artillery positions at a very fast speed. On the British artillery positions, there were only some gunners loading and aiming at ignition. Because their tools were quite small, few people were holding firearms, at most they were a few foreign trade revolvers and some short-handled muskets. Those with Hall m1819 had already come to the front to support them. Even if a company was separated, there were only thirty people along the way, it was not something that could be blocked by the three artillery positions.

In just five minutes, the artillery position was taken down by them, and all the British artillery were killed. Then, Lin Xin and others immediately mobilized their muzzles and shot out their exercise shells with rag straws in the iron sheet. Because the shells were of different weight, there were also regulations for the filled gunpowder. Otherwise, the gunpowder would be filled with gunpowder to two thousand meters away. How would the exercise result be calculated? The British command shed was attacked by shells from the rear, and then the referee determined that all the commanders in the command shed had been killed.

Lin Xin cooperated with the large army led by the adjutant to attack the private army that had lost its command again and ended the battle before dawn. The three thousand private army participating in the exercise did not hold on for ten hours in one night when the person formally attacked, which made Count Lin Man and the others really lose their faces. Several private army commanders wanted to argue, but the three counts who passed by with a dark face glared and snorted coldly, and they became completely honest.

They took their people back to the manor where they had negotiated the alliance agreement before. They had lost so thoroughly. Let's talk about the subsequent things after they have rested.
