That's it, although internally, Otto von Hereford, who is vaguely the world's number one player, is missing. otbnkotgt Although he was unwilling to do so, William himself had to admit that his actual command level and reputation were far behind those of his father.
However, even after losing King Otto, the Hereford family's army is still a powerful one, and even in a sense, the most powerful army in the world.
After several months of training, preparation and expansion, a standard Hereford Army has exceeded its original strength of 10,000.
After expansion, a Hereford regiment would include six regiments of infantry, one regiment of artillery and combat engineers, two regiments of cavalry, three companies of chasseurs, two independent companies of cavalry, and a company of guards.
The total strength exceeds 12,000 men.
Its standard infantry regiment has more than 1,500 men.
Divided into ten companies.
The infantry units of the First and Second Corps have all been equipped with the latest percussion cap guns.
The other two regiments, the Shilonsk Guards Corps directly under William, still use old-fashioned flintlock muskets.
In terms of infantry support weapons, in addition to traditional grenades and bayonets.
The infantry unit of the Hereford family is also equipped with flintlock muskets for self-defense, command knives and a small amount of equipment for middle and senior officers, as well as organ cannons as supporting firepower.
The artillery unit of the Hereford family has been fully equipped with the latest six-pound and 12-pound Napoleon cannons.
In addition to the original shells, they are also equipped with new shrapnel shells.
It's just a pity that the talented expert, Master Leonardo, who William has high hopes for, has too much work to do recently.
Therefore, none of the new methods and explosives that William had hoped for were invented.
This made William feel quite sorry.
In addition to the new Napoleon cannon, the artillery units of the 1st and 2nd Guards Corps are also partially equipped with new "Unicorn" plus howitzers.
Its trajectory can be greatly adjusted, and the cannonballs fired at the same time weigh 20 pounds.
Although it is too heavy, the firing speed is slow, and it is difficult to move, there are also problems.
But its power is quite worthy of recognition.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this.
The usual artillery regiment was equipped with over sixty six-pounder Napoleon cannons and forty twelve-pounder Napoleon cannons.
A total of one hundred new bronze cannons were enough to destroy the confidence of any enemy force.
There are a total of thirty unicorns and howitzers equipped in the 1st and 2nd Guards Corps.
Each Unicorn and Howitzer requires twelve strong draft horses to ride. fortunately.
The Hereford family has enough supplies of large livestock.
This is also the aspect in which the Hereford family is superior to any human country in terms of logistics, transportation and marching.
The engineer troops of each legion can drive nearly 3,000 camel troops composed of mules, donkeys, and military horses.
Both the number of vehicles and camels can meet the demand.
It can be said that the Hereford family army was the first modern army to complete Romanization, I mean mules and horses.
After all, the area controlled by the Hereford family is notoriously vast and sparsely populated.
There are large tracts of land suitable for grazing, as well as specially enhanced animal husbandry.
Paul, the head of the livestock department, was a sheepherder and was very good at taking care of livestock.
In his hands, the number of livestock under the control of the Hereford family doubled several times in several years.
Therefore, in this era when railways cannot cover the whole country and the internal combustion engine needs to continue to work hard, the traditional transportation capacity of mules and horses is the simplest and most reliable.
Even William, who was determined to vigorously develop railway transportation, could not deny this.
In addition to these mules and horses that need to be taken care of, carry a large amount of logistical baggage, and transport artillery, the engineers are also equipped with several other weapons.
The first is a large-caliber weapon that can kill several idiots by pulling the trigger at close range.
Then there is the size 1 defensive grenade.
Compared with ordinary hand grenades, the weight has increased by at least one kilogram after two rounds, and the charge and power have also been increased.
If you don't have enough experience and arm strength, you can easily injure yourself using this kind of thing.
The third is pleasant, although safe high explosives have not yet been obtained.
But there are already unsafe ones.
An unstable, easily explosive, powerful explosive.
That is.

William happily accepted these terrifying weapons that could blow the enemy and himself into the sky. and sent it to combat engineer units.
Hopefully they can kill a few more enemies before blowing themselves up.
Although, William knew how to use certain methods to make the performance stable and create the legendary safe explosives.
But William knew it but didn't know why.
So what exactly is diatomaceous earth?
What does adsorbing diatomaceous earth mean?
Although the book seems to make it very clear, I still don’t understand it when I think about it carefully.
What's more important is that this thing is so dangerous.
It's a miracle that Nobel guy survived to death.
So William wrote down a series of ideas, ideas, etc., and then gave them to Master Leonardo.
Let the master work hard on these issues.
Please ask the master to bear any dangers.
Finally, there is a more excellent engineer shovel.
Of course, it is not as exaggerated as the multi-functional engineer shovel of later generations.
And the quality is slightly worse.
However, this engineer shovel still uses a steel blade very luxuriously.
Perfect for digging trenches, building fortifications, or chopping some idiot's head off.
In the artillery and engineer baggage regiments there were from six to eight hundred artillerymen.
The number of engineers and soldiers was more than a thousand.
Originally, these two arms could form independent armies.
William once had the idea to form an independent combat engineer unit.
However, because the military troops did not look down upon these prairie dog-like guys, they encountered huge resistance.
Therefore, William gave it up for the time being.
It is hoped that the combat engineers will make sufficient contributions in this war.
That's it.
After talking about the infantry and artillery, the next step is the cavalry.
After a series of developments, the number of cavalry units of the Hereford family increased significantly.
With the prairie at their back and the traditional cavalry power Wende in their hands, the Hereford family can proudly claim that they are the country with the best cavalry soldiers in the human world.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Herefords added another cavalry regiment to each legion. and two additional three-regiment hussar brigades were established in addition to the legions.
Among the five additional cavalry regiments, there were two cuirassiers and three lancers.
Here, William can proudly claim that the Hereford family's cavalry force is the best in the world.
That's it.
In addition to these basic troops, the Hereford family also has special experimental units such as chasseurs and guards companies equipped with rifled guns, and independent cavalry companies equipped with the latest revolvers and rifled carbines.
That's pretty much it.
Ah, in a sense, this period of modern times should be the era when the military is equipped with the least variety of weapons and equipment.
Unlike modern times, which require aircraft, tanks, armored vehicles, artillery of various sizes, rockets and missiles.
A soldier is equipped with a lot of bits and pieces of sights, night vision goggles and so on.
It’s not like in ancient times, where there were eighteen kinds of weapons with different divisions of labor.
Therefore, modern warfare is relatively simple.
Even if the Hereford family had not taken the lead in reforming and introduced a variety of new weapons, the weapons and equipment required by the original war model would have been even simpler.
Now that the war machine is in action, the number of Hereford family troops is no longer the fifty thousand army as advertised before.
But a huge army of more than 60,000 and close to 70,000.
It is equipped with relatively the latest weapons and equipment, and has prepared a large amount of baggage, logistical supplies and ammunition.
In fact, before this, William had thought about the wonderful effects that such a large army would have on today's battlefield.
It would be an understatement to say it was devastating.

Although the number is smaller than the emperor's army of nearly 100,000, the quality and weapons and equipment are relatively stronger.
Under such circumstances, it would be perfectly fine to fight the emperor's army independently, right?
Of course William wouldn't be so stupid.
All in all, at the end of 1741, William struggled to deploy his army.
While pretending to be very busy in response to Victoria's frantic voice: "Asshole, you should hurry up and send troops."
At the same time, the war in Jutland was coming to an end.
While constantly communicating with the Hereford family, hoping that King Otto would come back, and desperately trying to win over William, he was also desperately attacking.
Perhaps, he made the right judgment based on some clues.
In other words, the Hereford family has made a decision to form an alliance with the Britons.
Therefore, Kalman IV was very anxious.
He must finish the Jutland battlefield before the Hereford family completes its internal unification.
Kalman IV consciously begins a power struggle within the Hereford family and the Britons recruit a second batch of troops.
He must not let his main force fall into this not-so-important battlefield at such an important moment.
That's it, Kalman IV hit the ground running.
Archduke Christian was unlucky.
William didn't care whether he lived or died, but the Britons were powerless.
Kalman IV simply could not trust him and refused to accept his surrender.
In this case, he could only bite the bullet and fight Kalman IV.
The emperor's army numbered sixty thousand.
Even with the support of the Britons, Archduke Christian worked hard to recruit and expand his troops.
But because Jutland's connection with the mainland has been severed.
So the task of recruiting troops was not ideal.
In the end, he could only use 20,000 or so men to fight against an imperial army that was twice his size.
In the end, there was no doubt that he lost.
The 20,000-strong army was completely defeated, and the Archduke himself fled in panic, and finally exited the Jutland Peninsula on a British battleship.
Temporarily live on the West Island.
Because the Grand Duchy of Jutland has sufficient naval forces, and the Britons are a world-recognized naval power.
In contrast, the territory controlled by the emperor only had a very pitiful coastline, and the emperor had almost no naval forces. 160420oshow7:
