The latest website: Early in the morning on February 19th, the morning fog had not yet dissipated, and Ying Ming's troops set up formations on the edge of the forest fifteen miles northwest of Winchester.

The terrain was not good for him, because there was a small river called Tester behind him, but it was the best place he could find.

The rolling hills and dense forests allow the newly encamped three Priligy battalions to carry out hidden activities and also block the English cavalry who are trying to trample on the infantry formation on the plains.

The one who served as the central army was still the most elite armed force in his hands. The eight hundred Beiyang and Ailan mixed cavalry were still the reliable and brave Miao Roquois warriors at the junction of the fields and the dense forests.

The war caused the peasants to flee in all directions. Miao Luoquai dug two arc-shaped trenches in the barren fields during the farming period. In order to delay the enemy cavalry, the trenches were digging wider than usual. In fact, this thing may not be useful in the offensive.

But the soldiers need them to be brave. If the offensive is unfavorable, at least there are fortifications to defend.

The ideal state that should have been cleared was to dig out three trenches, but the main training direction of the Miao Roquê soldiers was the most suitable for their battle formation and new weapons training rather than more detailed tactics, so the ability to excavate fortifications could not meet the requirements.

The Beiyang Army can finish things in two hours, and they can finish them in four hours, and the fortification acceptance is not so satisfactory.

When the British army appeared on the horizon, Ying Ming was surprised a little.

He fought with the English troops in Ayland many times, and then marched from Puley County to the east. He encountered quite a few English troops, but the enemy troops gave him a feeling of a mob. Even though the armor and equipment were not bad, and the weapons and equipment were not behind the Western French countries, there was always no decent military formation.

Every time I see the enemy going into battle, I feel like I am ready to fight in a group.

This time, through the telescope, he saw that the first large infantry horizontal formation consisting of ten small square arrays, with almost two thousand people.

The infantry holding shields still had various heralds printed on them, but they no longer held up the banners of each family. The flag officers of each square array held patterns of the same size and color, but there were different Roman numerals at the corner of the banner.

It seems to be a rush to work, but there is no doubt that in Ying Ming's opinion, this is very simple, effective and practical.

Ying Ming believed that this simple command method was suitable for generals with less military level to lead soldiers with equally low military level, such as him and his Prie camp; or Mr. Radish and his Radish soldiers.

When a thick large horizontal formation stood in front of the formation, followed by military music and slowly stepped forward to the front and stood behind it. The flag was exactly the same, but the colors were different.

Protecting two wings are two cavalry teams with light armor and heavy armor mixed together. In addition, there are two artillery teams between infantry and cavalry, six bronze long cannons.

Nearly 7,000 soldiers appeared on the battlefield in England in completely different military formations.

This number has exceeded Ying Ming's scouts' earlier reported the enemy's expected troops, and even hundreds of them were killed by the Third Matsuo Camp on the way, a huge force.

Count Robert Dudley was also proud of this, and was well-known. As the man in England who has the most hope to let the queen take maternity leave, he has enough capital to be proud.

These soldiers were completely reorganized and trained by him, using the latest European phalanx war to make up for the lack of nobles in registered sailors, and using the short-term phalanx captain to replace the existence of the nobles in battle.

He has found the trick.

In the past, the nobles recruited soldiers and had high mobilization ability, but ordinary soldiers had extremely low combat ability. Moreover, the nobles were the backbone of the battle. Basically, the nobles died and escaped, and the troops they led were also destroyed, and it was difficult to reorganize.

But officers are different. Although the combat ability of officers is not high, casualties and escape will also cause the troops to collapse, as long as another officer is promoted and appointed, the troops can be gathered and reorganized.

The transformation of the nobles to civilians who dominated the war could allow the great feudal lords to bear the losses better, and would not have been able to withstand the entire country in ten or twenty years after being captured by hundreds of nobles.

Earl Robert was even considering that when the situation of war became like this, it would be possible for the troops to use muskets in large quantities, and the general, more difficult, harder to build, and weaker longbows could be eliminated.

But now, he has to finish this battle before he has the opportunity to worry about other things.

The two sides confronted each other for nearly half an hour, and Ying Ming didn't know why his opponent didn't attack. Maybe a scout came over yesterday and saw them building fortifications, but he didn't care, which was exactly what he wanted.

He didn't know what the British army had to eat. Anyway, his troops came to the array after dinner in the morning. Beiyang's training required that vigorous exercise was not allowed half an hour after meals.

Ying Ming didn't know the principle, but since the military government requires this, it would be better not to do that, so his troops were not allowed to speak, and sat cross-legged in place to digest food.

When the time came, seeing that the enemy had not yet reached the forefront, the sound of war drums continued to ring.

With the flag waving, the first Matsuo Camp, who was in the front of the battle formation, put a wide wooden board on the trenches and lined up; then the two Puli Battalions followed one on the left and one on the right, and the other two Matsuo Camp stepped forward with one Puli Battalion, and the army was pressing up towards the enemy like a raft of overwhelming seas.

They brought some tiger squat cannons and Fran machine cannons, and General Zhenshuo, who was unable to move, remained in the camp.

As soon as the Ming army moved, the radish army opposite quickly moved, slowly moving forward towards the Ming army, looking as if they were conserving their physical strength.

When the two armies were only four miles apart, the Ming army slowly stopped in an irregular formation, and the whole team unloaded the Fran machine cannon from the pack horse, turned the gun mouth, and then continued to push the Ayran soldiers forward.

Some soldiers who were pushing the cart had fixed the cart as a rocket launcher. After the twenty-four Shenwei Machine Arrows were placed, they waved the little dragon flag to the central army behind their own military formation.

The military formation continued to advance, and England's artillery fired first. Six shells roared and smashed into the marching military formation. Two shells tear open gaps in the military formation, smashing out a piece of flesh and blood and flying everywhere. The other four shells hit the ground and stirred up a large area of ​​turf and soil.

In the smoke of gunpowder, a scream sounded from the rear of the Ming army. Twenty-four rockets took off one after another, drew an arc across the sky amid the strange screams of fire, and fell into the English army formation.

Almost at the same time, the tiger squat cannons laid their feet in front of the formation two miles apart and were ready to go. The Fran machine cannons belonging to each battalion filled the scattered tubes and shot out the opponent's military formation.

For a moment, the shotgun penetrated the air and the rocket exploded, dyeing the front line of the battle with red and blood.

For soldiers, the most difficult time has come. Whoever can't withstand the artillery fire first and who starts the charge first will lose his physical advantage, further leading to weakness.
