251 I respect you as a man

After three months of hard work, Will's cavalry had already reached about five hundred.

These five hundred people are not considered professional cavalry. They are different from those professional cowboys in the southern United States. Although there is no problem with riding horses and shooting, there is a problem with combining the two. Except for the cavalry of more than a hundred cavalry, most of the cavalry should be "horse infantry". When it comes to combat, these cavalry still have to dismount.

Even so, this cavalry is also the ace force in Li Mu's hands. In order to strengthen the firepower of the cavalry, Li Mu issued the cavalry seven-shot series and shotguns with short barrel type Spencer. Each of them also had two "python" cavalry pistols, and the grenades were even more open to supply, so they could take as much as they wanted.

As for those "horse infantry", Li Mu also invested a lot. The equipment of the Guantanamo Infantry Regiment was better than that of other troops in the United States of Cuba. The density of heavy machine guns for other troops was every 200 people. In the Guantanamo Infantry Regiment, it basically reached the level of every 50 people. In this "horse infantry", the 500 troops were equipped with nearly 30 "storm rain" light machine guns, and the fire density could be compared with the US troops in the late stage of World War I.

The equipment density of automatic weapons is so high that the logistics requirements are also high. Therefore, the Guantanamo Infantry Regiment has only 500 cavalrymen, but it is equipped with more than 900 horses. Except for the more than 100 real cavalry, which are one man and two horses, the other extra military horses are used to transport supplies.

After the arms meeting, Will proudly rode Prometheus and prepared to go to the cavalry battalion.

"Will, what's your idea?" Li Mu called out Will, feeling that Will's arrangement was very wrong.

"Haha, Reim, just wait for my good news-" Will laughed arrogantly and ran away with his horse and whip.

Li Mu was very angry and could only turn back and urge Yan Hu: "Teger, order the troops to prepare to set off immediately-"

"Reim, didn't you say you would not leave until night?" Yan Hu practiced with George Dewey for three months and now he has become a real soldier. This is the real duty of obeying orders, not someone who sells dog meat under the guise of sheep.

"Will is going to eat alone. If you wait until the night to set off, you can't even get a single hair." Li Mu saw through Will. This guy set up an ambush and seduced him just now, but he was all foolish. Or Will was not ready to mobilize all the troops to deal with the poorly equipped minion army. Whether it was setting up an ambush or seduction, Will could handle it all by just leading his cavalry.

"Damn it, move, the first battalion, the second battalion is ready to set off soon, and the other troops are ready to respond-" Yan Hu immediately became anxious. This was the first battle of the Guantanamo Infantry Regiment, and Yan Hu didn't want to watch from the wall.

The First and Second Battalions were the troops that followed Will to El Cristo.

In fact, strictly speaking, the Guantanamo Infantry Regiment, which has reached 5,000 people, is qualified to be upgraded to the Guantanamo Infantry Division. However, in order to preserve its strength, Li Mu insists on using the Guantanamo Infantry Regiment. Unlike the general three-three system, the Guantanamo Infantry Regiment now has nine battalions. In addition to the six infantry battalions, there is also a cavalry battalion taken away by Will, an engineering battalion responsible for special tasks, and a transportation battalion. The battalion commander of the engineering battalion is Esaiya Grant, and his deputy Bai Qi also serves as the company commander of the reconnaissance company.

The transportation battalion is not a regular organization. Usually, this organization is just a paper organization. It will only be temporarily recruited to join in the war. The number of militias recruited is uncertain, which may be one thousand people or five hundred people. It depends on the scale of the battle.

Li Mu implemented the "everyone is a soldier" system in Guantanamo. Regardless of whether he is a soldier or not, as long as he is an adult male, he has to spend at least four days every month to receive military training. The intensity of the training is not much different from that of the regular army. It can be said that at the critical moment of life and death, all adult males in Guantanamo can be directly pulled to the battlefield.

The individual technical and tactical level of militia may be a little worse than that of regular troops, but it is not much worse. At least they will use weapons, which are disciplined and obedient. In terms of combat effectiveness, the militia in Guantanamo is probably the same as the Spanish vassal army.

Of course, considering the advanced level of weapons, Guantanamo's militia completely outgrown the Spanish vassal army. At least Guantanamo's militia equipment was all Winchester Thirteenth, exactly the same as the regular army, with fewer grenades. Due to production, there is no need for grenades at present.

After urging Yan Hu, Li Mu rode on Wuqi and went home to arrange for him to go to the front line to see the battle situation between the two sides. If the cavalry equipped with teeth could not handle the group of servants, then Li Mu would be determined to pretend to be dead. No matter who it is, without artillery, Li Mu would never agree to the Guantanamo infantry regiment to go to the battlefield.

Speaking of which, after coming to Cuba, Li Mu looked even more afraid of death. In Springfield, Li Mu only brought more than a dozen or twenty gunmen when he went out. Now Li Mu's guard has more than 100 people. Most of the members are introduced by former guard members. They are all quick-witted senior cowboys, led by Mason, who has recovered from injury.

When Li Mu returned to his residence, he unexpectedly discovered that the sisters Chuxue and Gloria were wearing riding clothes and were wearing saddles for their mounts. Chuxue and Gloria were also wearing weapons, as if they were going to go out with the army.

It seems that what Will is right, the "Great Barrons" are even as tough as women.

The same is true for Adrian, who hasn't seen for a long time. He is wearing a denim suit and a white cowboy hat, and is wearing a saddle for a white Arabian horse. It is probably Adrian's mount.

After coming to Cuba, Adrian understood what the name "Rim" means, so Adrian walked around Li Mu recently and did not give Li Mu a chance to meet. This was right. Although he was a little scared, it made Li Mu unable to find a chance to deal with Adrian.

Li Mu ignored Adrian and directly looked for three women - the girl asked knowingly: "What are you doing?"

"We also have to go to the battlefield to protect our home!" Sandy answered quickly and took out a small silver pistol with great magnificence, which made Li Mu frightened. This is not a joke, it is not good to go crazy.

Protect our homes!

This is the most popular slogan in Guantanamo during this period. For these Chinese in foreign countries, talking about their country, honor, etc. cannot resonate with them. Only when talking about "home" can the morale of Chinese soldiers be maximized.

Wandering in a foreign country and suffering from bullying, only by feeling the pain of losing your home can you cherish everything you have. For the sake of the word "home", Chinese people who value family affection can give up everything they have.

"Who is the pistol given to you?" Li Mu jumped off his horse, strode to Sandy, and snatched the pistol from Sandy's hand. Fortunately, the insurance was not opened.

"Give it back to me, this is what Will gave it to me-" Sandy jumped and wanted to snatch the gun from Li Mu, without any respect for his father.

No, this is the habit of Americans. Calling "Dad" is respect, and calling "Will" is intimacy, and the meaning is the same.

"Hmph, do you know how to use it?" Li Muxin returned the gun to Sandy unwillingly, and asked again with concern.

"Hmph, I definitely caught more prey than you-" Sandy was dissatisfied, and the little girl looked provocative with her eyebrows hanging and her eyes slanted.

"Okay, you're awesome, I respect you as a man-" Li Mu gave up fighting with Sandy. When it comes to hunting, although Li Mu often says, he has never fought: "So can you tell me what you are doing?"

"Just Sandy said, we need to protect our homes." This time, Gloria made the same statement.

"Stop talking nonsense, your home is in Springfield, this is not your home." Li Mu refused, leaving no room for anything.

"You and Will are here, this is our home." Gloria said calmly, and she turned over and picked up the brim of the cowboy hat on her head with the handle of the horse whip. This action was really heroic.

"Don't talk nonsense, stay at home honestly. As long as our men are not dead, there will be no war between you women." Li Mu could feel the feelings contained in Gloria's tone, which made Li Mu more cautious and would never allow the women at home to go into battle.

"War makes women go away? Then why do you recruit women into the army to be nurses?" Gloria disagreed with Li Mu's statement. Considering that there are female nurses in Guantanamo infantry regiment, this means doing one set.

"Don't mess around with me here, there is no room for negotiation." Li Mu did not talk nonsense to Gloria, and came to Aubrey and hugged Pan from the basket on Aubrey's butt.

Pan struggled hard in Li Mu's arms. Although he was wearing a cage on his mouth, Pan still stuck out his tongue and wanted to lick Li Mu's face.

"Okay, we won't go unless you don't go." Gloria relied on Li Mu and decided to have meat to eat with Li Mu.

"I want to evaluate the combat effectiveness of Guantanamo Infantry Regiment and adjust the supply focus of the troops. This is not a play, I have a task." Li Mu found a reason for himself.

"We will follow you and don't go to the battlefield, so there is no problem with safety." Chu Xue knew Li Mu the best. After saying that, she immediately hid behind Chitu, not looking at Li Mu's angry eyes.

Just kidding, Li Mu is a millionaire, how could he charge into battle? At most, he would pick up a telescope in a corner far away from the battlefield and observe it.

All three women expressed their opinions, only Adrian did not speak, but judging from Adrian's relief expression, this guy's enthusiasm for fighting was not very high.

"Okay, remember what you said-" Li Mu compromised, perhaps bringing them with him is the greatest protection for them.
