2865 The Legacy of the Strong Army

War is definitely not a joke, it is a top science or even art!

All military powers in the world have their own origins, transitions, developments, and even reaching their peaks, such as France.

Historically, France is a first-class European power, but France's status as a military power was established by Napoleon. Before that, France could not even win the British army.

During the Hundred Years' War in Britain and France, the French had eaten all the words of the longbowman army!

Even in the end, Joan of Arc, a woman, is needed to inspire the morale of the nation!

From this we can see that France has not been the world's largest military power since ancient times. What he has been powerful since ancient times is their developed agriculture, technology and culture!

Until Napoleon emerged, he cleverly borrowed the power of the Great Revolution and finally built an invincible iron army that swept across Europe!

Napoleon's army was an army that was basically separated from the medieval heritage. He basically did not use those ancient blood nobles. His army was entirely composed of free peasants liberated from the Great Revolution.

Then a large number of children of the middle class who had received a certain degree of education were promoted to officers, and a military aristocratic group was quickly formed!

It can be said that the choice between Napoleon and Xiao Letian was the same. They both chose to personally write on a piece of white paper to depict a new army, but were too lazy to transform the old army.

They were afraid that the odor of the old army would pollute the new army, and what they were pursuing was a completely new system and power!

The French Revolution released a large number of oppressed tenants and slaves, making them extremely loyal and brave soldiers in the army!

Immediately afterwards, the Great Revolution strongly suppressed the religious forces in France, and basic science finally couldn't suppress them. All new technologies burst out like mushrooms after a rain. At that time, France's artillery technology was definitely the number one in Europe.

Of course, there is also an inseparable group of officers with orderly inheritance. These groups of officers who received training from Emperor Napoleon himself were the most important military forces that later supported Napoleon III to take office!

This is the root of the French strong army!

War is science and art, and it is not a skill that ordinary people can master! Many excellent senior generals were nurtured by three generations.

For example, senior German generals during World War I and World War II, if you open their family resumes and look at them, they are basically military aristocratic.

The toys of the generals were weapons since childhood. While other children were still shining leather shoes, growing crops, and raising cows, the children of these military aristocratic families had already started hunting, flying private planes, looking through military scriptures, and building sand tables to play war games!

Such generals who have been influenced by childhood are the core of a unit, and their family background is the invincible magic weapon!

Many of the unique skills on the battlefield are passed down by these families by word of mouth, and many of them are purely experience!

Only with such a group of officers and soldiers with strict discipline can we build an iron army that sweeps across the eight deserts and six unions!

Why is it said that the more than 10,000 French cavalry killed by Xiao Letian in Sinni the most brutal massacre in the entire Franco-Prussian War? Because Xiao Letian killed all the children of these nobles with family backgrounds!

All the people killed were the generals of the future France!

In this battle, what the French army broke out was what they really looked like. The French army, who were forced to a desperate situation, finally woke up from sleepwalking, and they finally showed the majesty that swept across Europe back then!

On the other hand, Belgium has never won by military victory. Their army is completely symbolic. Even if the weapons are the same, they do not have such an orderly military officer group or a group of soldiers who sacrifice their lives!

Such troops can only fight with the wind, and the command is completely a kind of small peasant consciousness. If you don’t take advantage of it, you will run away if you suffer a loss!

When the French cavalry charged just now, if the sword-drawing team hadn't responded quickly, their positions would have collapsed!

But now when they saw that the city wall had been broken through, the city gates were opened by the Prussians, and their intention to take advantage of the situation suddenly defeated their reason.

Countless Belgian soldiers launched a charge without waiting for Luo Huo and Sima Yun to give orders!

Fortunately, the Chinese soldiers reacted quickly and strongly stopped the subsequent charge of the Bi army. Otherwise, the one who rushed into Sedang City this time would not be two battalions, but one reorganized division!

"Idiot! Bastard! Will you fight? If you are in our Chinese, you will all be shot to death..."

"Order the artillery in the rear to support...the artillery is pushed forward... Without the cooperation of infantry cannons, we will never fight rashly!"

"Are you looking for death! Is your mind full of water?"

The charge of the Belgian army could not hear the angrily scolding of the Chinese soldiers at all. Of course, they could not understand Chinese. These so-called armies actually did not understand war at all.

Belgium also did not undergo modern military reforms. Most of the officers commanded were traditional blood nobles, while the soldiers were all ordinary people who fought for military pay.

Once such a combination arrives on the battlefield, it will immediately leak!

"Kill! Kill the Se-Dao... avenge Sny... capture the Emperor alive!" The Belgian soldiers from the two battalions shouted earth-shaking, and the formation was almost gone.

If ordinary people hear such shouts of killing, they really think this is a strong army. However, in the eyes of Chinese officers and soldiers, these people are just a group of chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep that are about to die!

Sure enough, when most of the Belgian troops rushed into the city, a bastion in the left direction of eleven o'clock suddenly roared with heavy machine guns.

Dada da... Dada da...

The French Mitrayoz machine gun spit out flames in the bastion. In the sight of the heavy machine gunners, these Bijuns were beaten into blood and blood!

"Open fire! Kill these invaders who took advantage of the fire!"

Countless French figures flashed out from the buildings on both sides of the road, and the rifle extended out and fired downwards!

This group of Belgian troops who fought without permission ran away like a group of surrounded mice!

"Counterattack! Open fire... Find cover!" The officer repeated these two sentences back and forth, and he had no idea how to deal with such an ambush.

At this moment, the French cannons on the bastion suddenly opened fire!

Boom... Boom... Two shells exploded directly in the Belgian army, and the battalion commander who was still commanding the battle was directly blown into meat paste.

"I can't rush over... God... I can't rush over... I can't retreat!"

"Save me...who will save me...mom..."

The Belgian army, which had heavy casualties, began to retreat, and even a group of cowards were scared out of their courage. They hid in the corner of the ruins, holding their heads and calling their mother's name and praying to God.

At this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from the city gate, and a loud bang and shells rushed straight to the castle. The violent explosion directly cut off a corner of the castle.

"Back back... give up the main road... let the artillery clear the way!"

In the chaos, the Chinese pioneers pushed a Krupp steel cannon and fired at the French army from the city gate.
