real phalanx era

It can be seen that the director has put a lot of effort into it. The plot aside, it is completely the main theme of the United States. The black corps fought bravely and even cherishes the memory of the white commander. Overall, the plot is very good. As a military fan, I think it basically fits the bill. At that time, the Northern Army’s fiasco at the beginning of the war

was a complete tragedy. The phalanx had no thickness, and the two platoons were still firing from far away, and the artillery couldn’t stand it. This was not a modern war. Before the emergence of machine guns and rapid-fire guns, the infantry was completely competing in formation. And courage, the painful accuracy of the front-loaded musket, the rate of fire and the range were clearly reflected in the encounter in the woods. Without a good formation, there is no way to talk about firepower. Until the First World War, infantrymen were all lined up like this. In a neat formation, led by bugles and officers, they marched towards death neatly, until the legend of the massacre of the Maxine machine gun behind the barbed wire was staged. In general, the war scene was not done well.
