v8 Chapter 75: General conclusion before the war Futtsu

Perry was preparing, and Tadaoemon was also preparing, just as nervous, without any slack. The more than nine hundred people who lost to Futtsu are now surrounded by Chuemon.

   Sorry to say that they were killed in battle. More than 20 people died in the united-communist battle. This amount of casualties is nothing for the entire army. So why did you lose if you fought well? what is the reason?

   Chungemon sat in the middle of the crowd and asked the sergeants what they thought.

   "Master Jiang Chuan died in the battle, and he was flustered, so he couldn't fight..." a soldier spoke on the initiative, with a little sadness and entanglement.

   "This is the first one." Chuemon nodded.

   It’s just that the Chuanxi team didn’t set up a corresponding wartime officer replacement mechanism, and the entire Futtsu Chuanxi team relied on Jiangchuan Yinglong to operate alone. He grabbed his beard and eyebrows. The chief military officer was Yinglong Jiang, the chief staff officer was also Yinglong Jiang, and the chief logistics officer was Yinglong Jiang.

   Under such circumstances, once Jiang Chuan Yinglong had an accident, the entire army immediately fell apart. No one else can replace Jiang Chuan Yinglong to take command. This is one of the biggest drawbacks of the transfer team. The organizational structure of the modern army, the transfer team did not learn well.

  Because Tokugawa Ieaki ordered the creation of the army, it was to use the shogunate as the direct army of the shogunate guarding Edo. I didn't particularly think about what to do with this army. Naturally, the loyalty of the army is the first key. Therefore, the chief officers of the army are the confidantes of the shogunate, including Matsudaira Chisun, Egawa Hideryu, and Chungemon.

   Congenital deficiencies naturally lead to acquired defects. The shogunate was very resistant to other high-ranking officers from intervening in the passing team, and only chose a few pro-fellow ministers. Once this person dies, an avalanche-like situation will naturally occur later.

   "Both the left and the right are defeated, and the subordinates can't restrain the subordinates." A captain promoted by a veteran replied with his head down.

   "Well, this is the second one."

   The second is also a very critical one. The training team lacks grassroots officers on a large scale. The early officers consisted of more than a dozen members of the Dutch officer corps, as well as dozens of apprentice families from Takashima Qiuho and Jiangchuan Yinglong. Dozens of officers who have studied modern military affairs can barely manage the training team of more than 1,000 people.

   After that, it didn’t work, and the army suddenly expanded to almost five thousand men. As a result, one veteran was forced to bring two new recruits. Although the joint training lasted more than a year, the facts could not be changed. There were no officers at the grassroots level.

   Dozens of small officers promoted over the years have become intermediate officers. They usually train with a whistle, and all teams can listen to orders. When the battle started, the artillery roared, the foreign guns fired, and the neighing of the horses and horses was endless. Do you use a whistle? Where can the hundreds of people on the left and right hear your orders?

   More importantly, before the battle, Keunaga Matsudaira believed that the shogunate had its own officer corps, and there was no need for the Dutch officer corps. He was about to kick Pedro and others, and they were all transferred directly from the army. Although Pedro and others became Songping Qixuan's staff in the end, it was a great disaster.

   So Jiang Chuan Yinglong died, some people went to rescue his body, some people launched a decisive charge, some people turned and fled, acting separately, completely without restraint. Morale also plummeted a lot, and lost in confusion,

   "There is also the lack of coordination of guns and guns, and there is a lot of panic when responding to the enemy." Jiang Chuan Yingmin suddenly got up and said this.

   "What's the point?" Tadaoemon wanted to hear the thoughts of this top student who had studied in the UK.

   "After Miyi came ashore, his father ordered artillery to bombard the boat in front of the beach, disrupting the enemy's formation. In the opinion of the lower officials, he should replace the shotguns and shoot directly at the soldiers who landed Miyi, so as to kill the enemy Miyi and cause confusion."

"I see."

   Yes, this is indeed a problem. The training of the training team has always been in two directions. One is to learn artillery, to garrison the fort, and to face Yingmi ghost animals in the future, so as to fire hard. The other is to guard the fort and Edo Castle and brake with silence.

   This is a targeted and specialized training in anticipation of war situations that the transfer team may encounter in the future. These two trainings are actually quite good, and the artillery on the Futtsu Fort, in fact, the hit rate is not too low.

   But in defensive warfare, the major is fortified positional defense warfare, and there is no corresponding training for landing warfare. As a relatively old-school military officer, Yinglong Jiang did not change his mind in time. Always use artillery as a purely long-range and destructive weapon, rather than an available infantry support weapon.

   So when the U.S. army landed, the artillery only allowed the artillery to shoot hundreds of meters away from the boats that were docking or about to dock, instead of immediately changing the shotgun and cleaning the beach.

   is more straightforward, that is, Yinglong Jiangchuan has no actual combat experience, and he has not yet adapted to the pace of modern warfare. If one step is wrong, then every step is wrong.

   "It was Miyi who landed calmly, hitting our soldiers, and straddling them, being hit by the enemy sharpshooter." Jiang Chuan Yingmin sighed.

"Ugh…"

   is really bad luck. At that time, Yinglong Jiang was at least 200 meters away from the sharpshooter of the U.S. Army. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com was hit by the U.S. Army just because he was riding on a horse and fighting with a clearer target.

   But thinking about him, he was not the worst. A few years later, in the Battle of Spot Servenia in the Civil War, the 110,000 troops of the Northern Army attacked the 50,000 soldiers of the Southern Army. At that time, General John Sedgwick, the commander of the Sixth Army of the North Army, was more than one kilometer away from the position of the South Army. As a result, he was shot in the left eye by a sharpshooter of the South Army and died instantly.

   Where do you go to make sense? Novels need to speak logic and rules, and what needs to be catered to readers is impossible and impossible. But the reality does not need to be so much to tell people. A rifled rifle is held from a kilometer away, aiming with the naked eye, and directly hitting the enemy’s eyeballs, and the target is still moving, because John Sedgwick is running on horseback, encouraging Soldier.

   Good fellow, what do you say?

   Everyone, just like that, you share the experience that you have exchanged for blood and life. Chungemon's orders were recorded in detail and compiled into a book. In the future, in the classroom of the Infantry Training Center, they can be specially used as examples of battles.

   In terms of the terrain of Japan, how many artillery battles and landing battles will be uneven in the future. If you study more at this time, you will be able to learn more in the future, and you won't make any more low-level mistakes.

"Okay, okay, everyone don't have to be discouraged, just lose once. As long as everyone is still there, we can continue to fight, and we can always beat Mii away!" Chungemon clapped his hands and encouraged loudly. All soldiers.

   The problems found need to be solved quickly. The Dutch officers who were thrown to serve as staff must immediately return to the army, at least before the battle is over, they must be in the army.
