How important is the savage suicide squad? Before the Qing army entered the pass, a strong combat power made the Ming army beat the Ming army to the point of defending the city. Why? Because the Qing army had a group of barbarians who were not afraid of death who acted as the suicide squad to charge forward and resisted the Ming army's guns and cannons.

The real Qing army "own people" were hidden behind these savage suicide squads to cover up the death squads. As a result, the casualties were all from the savage suicide squads, but the military achievements were all from the Eight Banners Army.

What kind of casualties collapses? I don’t know... Anyway, the casualties are all from the savage suicide squad, not the real Eight Banners soldiers. So, there is no question of any casualties or collapses...

As for the savage death squad, all the death squads died? At worst, I can go to the forest to catch the savage Jurchens...

But after entering the pass, the Qing army became a little bit active. Because we could no longer capture savages in the jungle of the northeast as suicide squads, we had to rely on the Eight Banners soldiers to go by themselves. Then, the Qing army was not so fierce.

By the time Wu Sangui rebelled, more than 200,000 Eight Banners soldiers showed signs of decline and almost ended. If the Green Camp soldiers had not stood up, the Qing Dynasty might have lost and fled back to the Northeast.

Of course, this is also related to the corruption and depravity of the Eight Banners soldiers after entering the pass. However, without the captured savages as cannon fodder for suicide squads, the impact on the combat effectiveness of the Eight Banners soldiers was also quite great.

Then, the Qing Dynasty continued to capture the Jurchens as suicide squads until the Qianlong period. However, since the arrest of the Jurchens and Soren (the former name of the young people such as Ewenk, Daur and Oroqen) was the man-made suicide squads, the combat effectiveness of the Qing army was even worse. Later, no one could beat it.

In fact, this was not the original creation of the Qing Dynasty, but a method used by the Mongolians during the Genghis Khan period. The Mongolian cavalry had heavy cavalry suicide squads, responsible for charging forward. Of course, it was not the brainless suicide squads in the movie "Mongol King" that resisted the double-sword suicide squads, but the normal suicide squads.

But like the Central Plains army, the Mongolian cavalry suicide squads were composed of death row prisoners who committed death row and those who violated military law. Unlike the Later Jin Dynasty, they directly arrested innocent wild Jurchens. In other words, they were not Jurchens at all, but people from other tribes who were captured by the Later Jin Dynasty as savages. After all, there were only a total of more than 100,000 Jurchens in Jianzhou at that time, but they could not find so many death row prisoners and did not dare to waste their population. They could only capture those more fierce savages of Jurchens as cannon fodder suicide squads.

However, this has had a miraculous effect. When arresting the Jurchens and the Sorens, they can see whether they are brave and savage. If they resist fiercely, they will slowly tame them with the means of slaughtering the eagle. Then, they will be used as suicide squads to charge forward. As for those who are not fierce enough, they will simply be an ordinary slave and grazing and farming.

Those unruly Jurchens and Sauron savages who were willing to serve the Qing army once they were successfully killed by the eagle, they were often barbaric and unafraid of death, and were very suitable for resisting the Ming army's gunfire.

It is said that some savages who were caught from the deep mountains and forests simply charged on horseback because of their poor riding skills...

After the suicide squad in front attracted the Ming army to shoot a round of guns and cannons, the real Eight Banners soldiers rushed to the front of the formation and swung their swords to kill the Ming army's musket soldiers...

Nurhaci worked as a domestic slave for Li Chengliang, spent a long time in the Ming army, and read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". He is a person who is more familiar with the Ming army. He is not like those Mongolian cavalry who do not understand the routines of the Ming army, and will not charge blindly. He knew that the Ming army had only one chance to shoot in front of the cavalry. As long as he resisted this round of shooting, the cavalry broke into the musket formation and could kill at will.

But there were very few Jurchens. If he had his own people become suicide squads, the Jurchens would be exterminated after a few battles. So, he pioneered the idea of ​​capturing the savages in the old forest in Northeast China to be suicide squads and taking that round of shooting for the real Jurchens. Then, the rest was the time for the Jurchen cavalry to perform.

It has to be said that Wild Boar Skin is indeed a tactical genius. His tactics just restrained the Ming army's fierce shooting in the first round and avoided casualties of the Eight Banners soldiers. In addition, he also invented the tactics of chariots.

It's not right, the car is not an invention. Because Qi Jiguang had already created a side van to resist the riding and shooting of Mongolian cavalry. The wild boar skin reinforces the side van so that it can withstand firearms.

The car and the savage death squad are the main tactics used by wild boar skin to restrain the Ming army, and they are also very effective tactics.

However, the tactics of chariots are actually not so invincible. As long as there are hundreds of cannons like the French, they can destroy the chariots. Unfortunately, the artillery of the Ming army was mainly deployed on the city walls, and there were usually only a few tiger squat cannons in front of the field, so they could not control the chariots.

Therefore, the Ming army always suffered losses in field battles. However, when defending the city, because there were many cannons on the top of the city, the Later Jin army was also helpless. It is said that the wild boar skin was even shot.

This is mainly because the Ming army did not have modern movable artillery mounts and could not carry too many infantry artillery marching. If it were the Beihai Army, it could carry hundreds of cannons at will, which could bombard the Later Jin carts into flying chips. After all, the cannons of Marin's army all had wheel-type movable artillery mounts with combat-level warfare, making it very convenient to carry.

In fact, the Turkish army's approach is also worth learning from - the Turks directly placed artillery on large chariots. At the same time, the large chariots of artillery set off were lined up, and iron chains were tied between the chariots to prevent the enemy cavalry from breaking in. Therefore, the Persian cavalry suffered a great loss in the face of the Turkish artillery formation.

Fortunately, Marin gave Persia a warning. Ismay I did not silly and rush to the Turkish artillery formation, so he did not suffer heavy losses and retained the capital to confront the Turks. As long as Persia was not crippled, Turkey would not dare to attack Europe with all its might. Because they were also afraid that the rear would be copied by Persia.

...

Marin called Kohler, Schwartz, Kahn and others to discuss the matter of catching barbarians in the North American jungle as a suicide squad. Schwartz was puzzled and asked:

"The Indians don't ride horses at all, how can they be used as cavalry suicide squads?"

Marin smiled proudly and said:

"It's okay, just tie them up right away!"

But Kohler pointed out the problem to the point:

"But your Majesty, our enemies do not have strong firepower, why should we send suicide cavalry to attract enemy shooting?"

Marin was stunned - yes, he was just patronizing the savage suicide squad tactics of the wild boar skins in the village. But the problem is, his opponents are not Mingjun, so they don't have that strong firepower...

And if it is not to attract firepower, what is the point of tying a barbarian who cannot ride a horse to charge on the horse, except to give the other spearman a head?

Marin began to reflect on himself and found that he had copied it...

At this time, Kahn also interrupted:
Chapter completed!
