"The Guards infantry lost more than 2,400 people, and the sharpshooter only lost more than 100 times. It seems that the loss this time is on the front battlefield, which is why the Guards infantry lost so much.

But in today's French Republic, who can cause such great losses to the guard infantry?

What tragic battles broke out in the second half of the night and during the day after the next day, which led to so many losses?

The regular troops that France can fight have not all gone out of the border in Paris?

Forget it, when the frontline battle report is sent back, you will naturally know the specific situation, which is better than guessing here."

A day or two later, Li Wei received another reward prompt from the full war system. This time, the result of Carl and Polkha joining forces to encircle and suppress the four enemy legions on both wings.

"Yes, two normal victory evaluations have won a total of 4 glory points. The losses combined are only a little over 100, and the losses are much lower than the previous battle losses.

The two battles that won this time should be the subsequent ending battle of the previous battle with severe damage. The main force of the enemy who was attacked was either forced into a desperate situation or lost most of the morale of resistance, so it was possible to easily achieve the victory of the two battles at such a small price.

It is estimated that it won't take long before I will receive the news that a large number of prisoners of war will be transported back from the front line. I can use the 16 glory points I obtained this time to start the next round of military expansion.

I don’t know if the gains this time depended on the Guard Infantry or the Sharpshooter. Although the Sharpshooter suffered smaller losses, this seemed to further affirm the role of the Guard Infantry on the battlefield.

After all, high combat losses mean more intense battles, and low combat losses do not play a big role in the battlefield.

The specific situation will be waiting for news from the frontline.

Alas, the 18th century was too backward, and communication was basically dependent on "legs". I don't know how long it took to wait for detailed information from the frontline.

Next, I will ask the Labor Dispatch Department (the official name of the Labor Office) to focus on road construction and postal communication stations.

Even if the war is over in the future, these stations can make profits by mailing letters..."

As Li Wei thought about it, he took out the paper and pen and began to record his next work focus.

Li Wei knew that he was not an outstanding talent before traveling through time. For example, when he was in school, he was always dragging his feet!

However, Li Wei can always reflect on himself, find out his weaknesses, and seize all effective time to study.

Even at the command of Li Wei, a large number of highly educated talents who were enlightened by the comprehensive war system were working for him, Li Wei still did not devote himself to enjoying himself. So far, there was only one baby-faced and big breasted Anne taking care of Li Wei's daily life.

It’s not that Li Wei is pure and has few desires, but that he knows that he still has many shortcomings and the revolutionary regime in Paris that is raising terrible spiritual bombs. He has not yet reached the time to relax and enjoy it!

Therefore, in this parallel world, Li Wei developed the habit of taking notes, and the bad pen is more realistic than the brain.

Now, Li Wei can handle most administrative copywriting and various complex data tables by himself compared to the time he just traveled through.

If Li Wei had the enthusiasm for studying in his previous life, he would never fail the final exam of the senior mathematics in his freshman year!

A few days later, Li Wei got his wish and saw the detailed battle report written by Carl himself, and analyzed the performance of the sharpshooters and guard infantry in the battle in this battle according to the requirements put forward by Li Wei before going to war.

Carl gave the conclusion similar to what Li Wei had expected before. On the front battlefield with a wide view and relatively flat terrain, the guard infantry is more useful than the sharpshooter. In complex terrain such as mountains, jungles, there are a large number of bunkers that allow the sharpshooter to hide himself in a safe position and fully utilize the sharpshooter's shooting ability.

Later, Carl told Li Wei through actual combat that what Li Wei had proposed before was that on the front battlefield, sharpshooters were responsible for shooting and killing the enemy, and guard infantry were responsible for using dense lines as the backing of sharpshooters, which was not as reliable as planned.

This is mainly due to the rate of fire of the front-loaded muskets. Even if the enemy does not send light cavalry troops to expel the protruding sharpshooters, they can also send a large number of light infantry to launch a scattered bayonet charge against the sharpshooters, so that the sharpshooters do not have enough time and energy to load bullets and kill people!

Since the enemy has not many light infantry launching bayonet charges, even if the guard infantry behind them are rescued immediately, they can retreat calmly. When the sharpshooter comes forward again, they will surge up again, and during the pursuit, they will calmly shoot a large number of bullets on the back of the retreating sharpshooter!

As for the imagined fight while retreating, it is too ideal. After all, when humans run forward and shoot, it is more convenient and flexible than when retreating while turning around and shooting. They can't stop the enemy light infantry who sprints with all their strength and keeps firing!

If the enemy dispatches a large number of light cavalry troops while the sharpshooter is shooting, it will be even more a disaster for the sharpshooter.

Because light cavalry has better mobility than light infantry, they can avoid the line formations of guard infantry after harvesting the lives of sharpshooters, and shoot sharpshooters who kill the enemy in a convex position on the front line will only become victims...

This is when there are a large number of guard infantry guards behind the sharpshooter to protect the formation!

If the sharpshooter is allowed to fight alone, as long as it is not a complex mountain, jungle terrain, the enemy only needs a small number of light cavalry troops to kill the sharpshooter.

When facing high-speed moving light cavalry, sharpshooters often find it difficult to hit their opponents...

The effective way for sharpshooters to cooperate with guard infantry can only be used when the guard infantry approaches the enemy, because at that time most of the enemy's energy is on its own guard infantry, and they dare not divide light infantry and light cavalry to pursue the sharpshooters, so that the sharpshooters can shoot calmly.

But by the same token, the enemy can also shoot the approaching guard infantry, causing considerable damage.

This makes it impossible for the guard infantry to use their own sacrifice to cover sharpshooters with low firing speed to accurately kill the enemy!

Even if one can be replaced, it will be a huge loss for the Black Dragon Legion. It would be better to let the guard infantry fire directly and charge directly, and give full play to its own bayonet tactical advantages in bayonet fighting.
