"Da da da da da! Boom! Boom! Boom!" The fierce guns and cannons rang out in the sky. In order to regain the bridge occupied by Chinese cavalry, the Cossack cavalry launched a desperate attack. One by one, the Cossack cavalry were shot.

Killing, falling on the way to attack, the corpses of the people and war horses on the ground soon piled up a thick layer. The dying Cossack cavalry and war horses let out painful moans, rendering the whole scene very well

The thick corpses on the ground have caused quite a lot of trouble for the charge of the Cossack cavalry. But even so, the Cossack cavalry still charged one after another. They all knew that recapturing the bridge was their only escape.

Hope.

"Damn it, hurry up! The Chinese are about to catch up! When the main force of the Chinese catch up, we will be dead before we can regain the bridge!" The commander of the 5th Cossack Army of the Russian Army seemed a little irritable and uneasy.

.Over time, their situation will become more and more dangerous.

"The 2nd Cossack Army, attack! At all costs, the bridge must be taken back!" Major General Dimitri, the commander of the 2nd Cossack Army, also gave the order with a cold face. Tens of thousands of cavalry of the 2nd Cossack Army

, also joined the attack on the bridge. However, this was not something that could be solved by investing more troops. The bridge was only so wide, and the defense line established by the Chinese cavalry at the bridge was only thirty or forty meters, which made the Cossacks

No matter how many troops are invested, the cavalry can only attack on the defense line of dozens of meters. This defense line has been blocked by the firepower composed of heavy machine guns and mortars of the Chinese cavalry. The Cossack cavalry attacked at any cost, but

It only increases casualties.

"General Dimitri, what should I do? The bridge is too narrow, and we can't exert our strength at all!" The commander of the 5th Cossack Legion said with a sad face. If you can't get the bridge back, then they have to wait to die

.

"What else can I do? I can only fight to the death!" Major General Dimitri, commander of the 2nd Cossack Legion, said with a cold face.

"General, the Chinese are catching up, and they are still ten kilometers away from us!" A Cossack cavalry came to Major General Dimitri and reported.

"Bastard! Since we can't escape, let's fight to the death with the Chinese people in a dignified manner!" Major General Dimitri said.

"The warriors of the 2nd Cossack Legion, now our retreat has been cut off and we can no longer return to the north bank of the Selenge River. Only by defeating the Chinese can we survive! Warriors, charge!" Major General Dimitri encouraged him.

road.

"Ula! Ula!" The remaining more than 10,000 cavalrymen of the 2nd Cossack Legion immediately turned around and rushed south, preparing to fight to the death with the Third Cavalry of the Chinese Army. The 5th Cossack Legion continued to attack the bridge.

, hope to take the opportunity to retake the bridge.

Soon, the direct battle between the Russian 2nd Cossack Army and the Third Cavalry Army of the Chinese Army began again. The Cossack cavalry, waving the sabers in their hands, rushed towards the Third Cavalry Army. The Third Cavalry Army

The soldiers tied their horses' heads and fought back with machine guns and rifles in their hands, shooting as much as possible for the Cossack cavalry.

"Da da da da da! Bang bang!" The sound of the light machine gun was mixed with the sound of riding a gun and the sound of fried beans. The dense bullets enveloped the Cossack cavalry. After being shot, the Cossack cavalrymen were shot from

It fell down immediately. Under such circumstances, there was almost no chance of survival. Even if it was not shot, it would be trampled into a meat paste by the high-speed horse running behind.

Even if the heavy machine guns and cannons of the Third Cavalry Army were not able to arrive, the firepower network composed of light machine guns and cavalry guns cannot be underestimated. Tens of thousands of cavalrymen of the 2nd Cossack Army of the Russian Army were in the process of charging.

Most of them were shot and killed. After they rushed to the lineup of the Third Cavalry Army less than dozens of meters away, the cavalry of the Third Cavalry Army also put down their cavalry, drew out their sabers, and rushed towards the Cossack cavalry.

Go up. Although the cavalry of the Chinese Army emphasized the use of strong firepower to eliminate the enemy, it was not that they would not use sabers. On the contrary, they were not inferior to the Cossack cavalry when using sabers.

Tens of thousands of people on both sides fought together, but at this moment, the Russian 2nd Cossack Army had already suffered heavy losses. How could the remaining thousands be the opponent of the Third Cavalry Army of more than 20,000? Even if the Russians were born

The bull is tall and the horse is big, the strength is great, and very brave, but under such a gap, they are still powerless to make the world come true.

"We lost this battle. The Chinese defended very tightly on the bridge and we couldn't catch it. The main force of the Chinese also came, and we failed. General Dimitri, what should we do next

?” asked the commander of the 5th Cossack Legion. Now, the two legions together have less than 10,000 people, while the Third Cavalry Army of the Chinese Army has suffered very minor losses. In this case, how do they fight

Go on? If you persist, it will be a dead end.

"Swim over! Whether you can escape depends on God's blessing!" said Major General Dimitri, the commander of the Russian Second Cossack Cavalry. The current Selenge River is not turbulent. Although the water depth is not shallow, if

If you are lucky, you can still swim through it.

Soon, the Russian soldiers rode their horses toward the Selenge River, then dismounted and stepped into the water with their horses, preparing to swim. During this process, the Third Cavalry Army of the Chinese Army had arrived at the riverside. They stood

On the riverside, the Russian Cossack cavalry were shooting. Many Cossack cavalry or war horses were shot, and gradually dyed the river water red.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" When the artillery of the Third Cavalry Army arrived, they launched violent shelling on the Russian Cossack cavalry who were swimming. This made the Russian army's situation even more difficult.

"Captain, the Russians are going to run away!" said Major General Li Zhuo, deputy commander of the Third Cavalry Army.

"Haha! Did they run away? Cross the bridge and stop these Russians, and don't let anyone go!" Major General Bashar, the commander of the Third Cavalry Army, laughed. Although the Selenge River is not wide, it is necessary to swim across it.

In the past, it would be impossible without twenty or thirty minutes. The bridge was under the control of the Third Cavalry Army. A large number of cavalry crossed the river from the bridge, blocked the north bank of the Selenge River, and continued to carry out the Cossack cavalry who were swimming.

Shooting. In this case, the Russian army was completely desperate. Many people drowned directly in the river, and their bodies were washed into Lake Baikal. The remaining Russian Cossack cavalry had to surrender in order to survive.

It's right.

It was only at 1:00 p.m. that the battle ended. The Russian 2nd Cossack Legion and the 5th Cossack Legion had a total of more than 40,000 people, more than 4,000 were captured, and hundreds of others escaped by chance. Most of the rest were

He was shot and a very small part of him drowned while swimming. The Third Cavalry Army only paid less than a thousand people. There is no doubt that the Third Cavalry Army once again won a great victory.

Afterwards, the Third Cavalry Army did not immediately attack the remaining troops of the Russian 9th Cossack Army on the north of the Selenge River, but instead built solid fortifications at both ends of the bridge to ensure the safety of the bridge. At the same time, on the bridge

And some heavy machine guns and mortars were deployed to block the Selenge River channel and cut off the logistics supply line of the Russian Ulan-Ude defenders.

The main force of the Russian cavalry was eliminated, which was undoubtedly a fatal blow to the Russian army in Ulan-Ude. Without the protection of the cavalry, the Russian army in Ulan-Ude not only had the supply line broken, but also the rear route.

Being raided. This will make Ulan-Ude's Russian army truly become a lonely army, and Ulan-Ude's defense will also become a real defensive.

During the cavalry confrontation between the two sides, the street battles of Ulan-Ude were also very fierce. The First and Third Army of the Chinese Army launched a more fierce attack on Ulan-Ude. A large number of Chinese soldiers,

Advance in the urban area of ​​Ulanwude, and compete with the Russian army for every street, every building, and even every ruin of Ulanwude.

"Grand Duke, something is wrong! The 2nd Cossack Legion and the 5th Cossack Legion were defeated, with more than 40,000 people. Except for a few hundred people who escaped, the rest were all killed. Major General Dimitri was also killed!" Nie

The adjutant of Grand Duke Gula rushed into the underground command center and reported the news to Grand Duke Nicholas.

Grand Duke Nicholas stood up from the chair with an incredible face.

"How is this possible? How could the great Cossack cavalry be defeated by these yellow-skinned monkeys?" Grand Duke Nicholas could not believe such a fact, or was unwilling to admit such fact. In his opinion, the Russian Cossack cavalry were the ones in Russia.

It is definitely the most powerful army and the pride of the Russian army. How could it be defeated?

"General, it's a pity, but that's the case. According to the report of the escaped Cossack cavalry, the Chinese were very powerful. They did not fight with us in cavalry, but deployed a solid position first.

The Cossack Legion and the 5th Cossack Legion suffered heavy losses in the process of charging against the Chinese strong positions. After that, the Chinese cavalry took advantage of their advantage and crushed our Cossack cavalry."

The adjutant said.

"That idiot Dimitri! Since you can't defeat the Chinese, don't you know how to retreat? The 40,000 elite Cossack cavalry were gone!" Grand Duke Nicholas was like a furious lion.

"His Excellency, the Chinese occupied the bridge on the Selenge River and blocked the retreat of our Cossack cavalry. Therefore, they were almost wiped out!" said the adjutant.
