Chapter 92 The Poles Appear
The time of reunion is always so short, and at the same time, Wang Ziming also learned another privilege of him in the different space - to predict the arrival of the enemy and the approximate number in advance!
Just like now, the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania has just revealed a corner of the small map's field of vision, and Wang Ziming got the information prompted by the system.
Including the attack direction and general strength of the opponent!
In this way, Wang Ziming could order his own army and Cole's allies to set up a targeted defense line in advance without any pressure.
Although the enemy has already appeared in the field of vision at this time, there is not enough time to dig fortifications such as parapets and trenches, but it is still no problem to list a defensive formation in the field.
Under such circumstances, it is almost impossible for the enemy to carry out a surprise attack on Wang Ziming's army, unless all members are light cavalry with the highest mobility!
It also needs to be under the condition that Wang Ziming is completely unprepared!
However, Wang Ziming felt a little weird after getting the general military strength data of the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania.
Because the system prompts that the army of the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania only has about 1,000 people...
Although it didn't mention what kind of arms these thousand people are, but with a thousand people to attack Wang Ziming and Cole's armed forces, a total of 4,000 troops, a 1:4 comparison of troops, no matter how you look at it, the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania must be Losing situation...
This time Wang Ziming took out all the troops except for the senior Swedish swordsmen, and even the 198 sword soldiers from the territory of the different space were pulled into the different space, and Li Feiyan was naturally here.
The sharpshooter and elite arquebus soldiers also came to the territory of different space, acting as a long-range firepower projection force that is better than nothing.
Although there is no soul power experience to gain in battles in different spaces, every additional soldier can increase the chance of winning by one point.
The main reason why the senior Swedish swordsmen were not brought in was that Wang Ziming was reluctant to lose a large number of expensive arms that needed to rush in front of the enemy to play a role in firearm warfare.
After all, it is really easy to use Swedish veteran swordsmen to deal with demonized creatures.
What's more, the land of hope in the real world also needs to be guarded by combatants.
However, in addition to the senior Swedish swordsmen, it includes 200 pioneers with old arquebus guns, 198 sword soldiers, marksmen and elite arquebus soldiers, 1660 senior Swedish town militiamen, 1000 Swedish pistol cavalry, 120 Swedish All the cuirassiers walked out of the territory of different space and began to fight in formation!
Cole's army listed a pike and musket formation similar to the Morris phalanx, but different from the Morris phalanx and more simplified.
Looking at it with a wide eye, the pikemen in the middle are flanked by musketeers to form a flat horizontal battle formation, which is more similar to the shallower line tactics, which is much smaller than the depth of the traditional Morris phalanx.
Obviously, this kind of phalanx is easier to display the shooting ability of the musketeers, and there will be more musketeers shooting at the same time.
But because the depth is too shallow, it is easy to be pierced by the enemy's cavalry charge.
The Swedish dragoons were assigned to one side by Cole as flank guards.
Since the left wing of Kohl's team is Wang Ziming's army and does not need guards, the Swedish dragoons are all placed on the right wing.
For the same reason, there was no cavalry on the right wing of Wang Ziming's army. The junction point of the two armies was an infantry phalanx formed by a large number of musketeers and spearmen.
Compared with Cole's team, Wang Ziming's team is stronger, so the depth is also thicker.
The musketeers lined up a full 8 rows, taking turns firing.
Although it takes only one minute for a skilled arquebus to reload, in the alternate shooting method, the arquebus needs to move backwards after shooting, and the queue change also takes a certain amount of time, so listing eight queues can guarantee about ten seconds to the greatest extent. Shoot a round of guns!
With the insane shooting frequency of the matchlock gun, it would be pretty good to be able to listen to the password and fire together within ten seconds...
Since Wang Ziming didn't have pikemen in his hands, it was a pure eight-row musketeer phalanx, and the left wing had a thousand Swedish pistol cavalry, all of them put on armor and mounted on horses.
On the left flank of the Swedish pistols were 120 Swedish cuirassiers.
The sword soldiers are divided into small teams, interspersed in the middle of each musket phalanx, as a supplement to the infantry's hand-to-hand combat power.
200 pioneers serve as the general reserve team. If it is not necessary, Wang Ziming does not want these non-combatants to go to the battlefield...
Since Wang Ziming had a commanding view of the entire array, he could see any flaws at a glance and make adjustments. Therefore, although Wang Ziming's team was a bit amateurish, the formation was arranged horizontally and vertically, which was nothing like the elite regular army. No difference!
It is not easy to get a group of town militiamen to form such a queue...
At this time, Wang Ziming couldn't help but be thankful that he hadn't been stingy with magic stone gold coins, and promoted all the Swedish town militiamen to the senior level. Otherwise, even if he kept giving orders to adjust, the Swedish town militiamen's queue training level would not be able to stand horizontally and vertically.
In fact, the Swedish urban militia has been promoted to the second-level senior Swedish urban militia. Not only has the proficiency in marksmanship and arquebus use increased, but the level of queue training has also reached the level of ordinary second-level regular troops in various countries.
In the era of horseback riding and blade fire and sword game scenes, the formation of standing regular army soldiers in various countries is the most basic training item.
As more and more red spots appeared on the small map in the field of vision until it finally turned into a mass of big red spots, Wang Ziming also saw clearly the composition of the army of the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania who came this time.
Naturally, Wang Ziming didn't have the time to count the exact number...
Without system prompts, Wang Ziming really can only count with his mental arithmetic ability!
Naturally, Wang Ziming is not afraid of counting, but the army of the United Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania will not stand in line and let Wang Ziming count slowly. They are gradually approaching!
And because the Polish army has different types of arms, the formations listed are not Wang Ziming's large horizontal and vertical square formations, but small battle formations.
For example, riding tall horses, holding gorgeous lances, with a pair of large decorative wings on their backs, Polish hussars in plate armor gathered together and moved forward slowly.
They didn't even make an array, they just walked forward in clusters.
Anyway, he had four legs, even if Wang Ziming suddenly sent cavalry to rush over, the Polish hussars could drive their horses to a safe place and regroup in an instant before turning around and charging.
The total number of Polish hussars is less than three digits. This kind of rough number does not need to be counted one by one, it can be seen at a glance.
Following the Polish hussars, the Polish armored Cossack cavalry with a number of more than 200 came out in the same group!
Behind the Polish armored Cossack cavalry is the infantry team.
