Batch command to select multiple file and output it as single line-CodePudding

I tried to find a many way to finish this but still no hope ( tried with array etc ...)

Is there a way that I can select part of the file listed in the dir and output it as below

for example if I input 0-2, it output as

00000\.MTS 00001.MTS 00002.MTS

same , if I input 3-5,

00003\.MTS 00004.MTS 00005.MTS

EXAMPLE FOLDER LIST

2022-03-24  00:14    \<DIR\>          .
2022-03-24  00:14    \<DIR\>          ..
2022-03-23  15:47         5,025,792 00000.MTS
2022-03-23  15:47         4,958,208 00001.MTS
2022-03-23  15:47         3,938,304 00002.MTS
2022-03-23  15:47         9,185,280 00003.MTS
2022-03-23  15:48         9,179,136 00004.MTS
2022-03-23  15:48         3,028,992 00005.MTS

The reason I try to do this it is because I would like to join the MTS files without typing in one by one in the command. The original command is like

copy /b 00000.MTS 00001.MTS 00002.MTS 00003.MTS 00004.MTS 00005.MTS "C:\\Users\\Desktop\\1.MTS"

Hope I can use the batch command
1st : 0-2

copy /b 00000.MTS 00001.MTS 00002.MTS "C:\\Users\\Desktop\\1.MTS"

2nd : 3-5

copy /b 00003.MTS 00004.MTS 00005.MTS "C:\\Users\\Desktop\\2.MTS"

Is it possible to complete this in bat ?

I did try with the for loop to gen the file list,

setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
set /P "mts1=MTS SET 1 : "
for %%n in (%mts1%) do (
echo !FILE_LIST\[%%n\]! 
)

but seem it only show all and also every file uses a new line, cannot be use in copy /b
