"How is it different?"

Chuemon, who was riding on the horse, asked Shanonoi with a smile. From Chuemon's point of view, the Chuanxiu team is already a fairly standard modernized infantry, not much inferior to the armies of Britain and France.

"Hahahahaha, the momentum and state far exceeded expectations." Shanonoi shoulders the major task of Napoleon III going to Japan and expanding France's influence in the Japanese army. Even if it is a garbage soldier, he has to work hard to lead .

What's more, the training team is pretty good now!

"So that's it..." Chuemon raised his eyebrows, but didn't get into it.

The training team in front of them are all veterans who have trained for more than three years, and most of them have participated in actual combat. Moreover, he was born with a sword in the Miao character, and he was motivated to gain fame immediately.

Just like the army of France during Napoleon's time, Napoleon gave an ordinary soldier a rising channel from civilian to general. As the saying goes, a soldier who does not want to be a general is either a good soldier or should be here. And there were indeed many French soldiers who had earned an excellent background in that period.

This also made the soldiers of the French army, extremely supportive of Napoleon's rule, willing to go through fire and water for him, without hesitation. After Napoleon escaped from Elba Island and ascended to heaven, in just a few weeks, more than 300,000 troops fell to Napoleon.

Without him, there is a way out with Napoleon!

The same is true for the shogunate’s training team. Joining the army and serving as a soldier has a way out. As long as you have real skills, the shogunate will never receive many awards from you. The former infantrymen pursued Songping Qixuan, and the current infantrymen pursued Tokugawa Zhongzheng. They are all generals with fair rewards and punishments, and their reputations are well known.

A self-motivated army, in these days, is of course not bad.

The French officers of the French Officer Training Corps originally thought that the army of the shogunate might be similar to those they had seen in North Africa or the Middle East. At most, it is stronger than the army in Indochina Peninsula and Southeast Asia, but I never thought that this army looks really interesting, and everyone's mood is much better.

Which officer doesn't want to lead a good soldier?

After having a good impression, the French officer coaching corps was stationed in Osaka. Today's Osaka Castle has nothing to do with the one in Toyotomi Hideyoshi's time. Even in order to completely eliminate the influence of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the Tokugawa shogunate directly covered the ruins with several meters of soil after the entire city was burned down during the Summer Battle of Osaka Castle.

It’s just a matter of not letting anything of Toyotomi Hideyoshi be left behind. This also leads to the fact that the current Osaka Castle is actually built after the foundation of the old Osaka has been wrapped. There is not only a huge martial arts field under the castle, but also a prosperous castle town.

Ready-made training ground.

According to Sanonoi's idea, it is best to recruit soldiers who are poor people. Anyway, if they enter the army, they will serve as big sticks. If you do not obey the discipline, you will be hit, and you will be hit until you accept the discipline. This is one of the main training methods for recruiting those militias and is very common in Europe.

It's a pity that Chuemon has a better source of soldiers, and the recruited Miao swordsmen all gleamed when they saw Chuemon. I heard that after working in the team for three years, you can get rid of non-commissioned officers and make meritorious achievements and get promoted faster.

I'm here to become a samurai, a flag book!

There is no need for your big wooden stick at all. The recruits are very active, obedient and willing to practice hard. As the second and third children of the family, these recruits want to stand out, and it is the most convenient shortcut for them to become an official.

Looking at the new recruits in the battalion who were more active than them, what else could Shanonoi say, and immediately began to divide the troops. Of course, they used the French system, and the main force was the privates, the general soldiers who were lined up to fight.

In addition, there are light infantry. This part of the soldiers is often placed in front of the troops in advance to harass the enemy and also serve as the outpost of the entire part. During the Napoleonic Wars, wasn't there the existence of that kind of hunter, probably the same meaning.

And now that the power of the artillery is getting bigger and bigger, the tight formation often leads to heavy casualties of the soldiers. When the Maxim machine gun came out, and there was a tight queue on the battlefield, that would be death.

It is precisely because of the development of the times and weapons that the ratio of general infantry to light infantry in the new Osaka Division has reached 2:1. Chuemon watched from the side, and he felt pretty good. Historically, it seems that the ratio of 3:2 for the training team to accommodate general infantry and light infantry is not too much.

Then came the artillery unit, which did not need the French to worry about. The artillery of the shogunate was the first modernized army to be established. I have no relationship with the old-fashioned army. In the early years, the training was presided over by Pedro of the Dutch officer coaching corps. Later, the British took over the training without any problems.

Therefore, the 2nd Osaka Division did not need to train artillery. After the training was completed, the shogunate could transfer an artillery from the 1st Edo Division and fill it into the 2nd Division.

What needs the attention of the French is the cavalry!

The French cavalry, needless to say, during the Napoleonic Wars, made a great name all over Europe. basically the same

The world's first hook, without any controversy.

Moreover, the French are obviously not a nation on horseback, but they can cultivate elite cavalry, which shows that the French are really good at cavalry.

Now that we have the French Ocean Horse, why don't we hurry up and train it? Speaking of which, the Japanese horses really made Shannonoi laugh. The French cavalry officers who were used to seeing those tall military horses in France, saw the ordinary mules and horses in Japan, and asked you whether this is a dog or a horse?

If you insist on comparing the severely degraded horses in Japan with those big dogs, it may be almost the same...

The Chuemon's face was dull, but fortunately, the imperial horses that Napoleon III gave to Tokugawa Jiading in the early years have bred some good horses. This time, I brought more than 20 horses to support Chuemon. It means that those ponies on the market are all for children to ride, and what we bring here are serious military horses.

Despite this, the French cavalry officers muttered for a while. One hundred and twenty cavalry were finally selected and divided into two teams. One team was the Lancers, excellent cavalry of the British Hussars who charged directly over Wellington at the Battle of Waterloo.

The other team was the dragoons, which doubled as light cavalry, using horse-mounted carbines, which could not only shoot on the horse, but also quickly move to a certain part of the front line as a mobile force when necessary.

As for the cuirassiers, I will not mention them for the time being.

The rest of the engineer corps, the logistics and baggage troop, the military medical and nursing units were also recruited and started training.
