Chapter 388 The decline of the cavalry

"The Cossack warriors, use the swords in your hands to cut off the heads of those yellow-skinned monkeys, so that they can know the price of offending the great Tsar! Go forward, warriors!" Turgenev, commander of the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division, waved his silence.

He spoke loudly with his saber in his hand. The 6th Cossack Cavalry Division's six thousand Cossack Cavalry Division was the trump card in his hand. In the war, no army of any country could withstand the charge of the Cossack Cavalry, their sharp sabers,

You can easily cut off the enemy's head.

"Ula! Ula!" The Cossack cavalrymen wearing cylindrical curly hats, black cloaks, cross-body rifles, and sabers hanging around their waists screamed. They took out their wine bags and poured them down.

After gulping vodka, they urged the war horses to head north of Chiktu. For the Cossacks, their favorite thing to do is to drink vodka and use a sabre to cut off the enemy's head.

"I hope the brave Cossack cavalry can defeat the Chinese cavalry and open the road to retreat north!" Major General Mihayer said with some concern. The attack of the Chinese team was getting more and more fierce, and the second line of defense was already tight.

.The soldiers in front were suffering heavy casualties, and I don’t know how long it could last. If the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division could not open the passage in time, the entire Russian army in Chiktu would become a turtle in the jar.

"They will definitely succeed. No one can resist the charge of the Cossack cavalry. I am very confident in them!" Major General Turgenev said confidently. These Cossack cavalry are skilled in riding and accurate in shooting. They are real

King of Field War. For more than two hundred years, the Cossack cavalry has made immortal contributions to Russia's expansion. Even Emperor Napoleon, who was scattered across Europe, praised the Cossack cavalry.

The Cossack cavalry, led by their commanders, left Chikto and headed north slowly. Before starting the charge, they had to save horsepower so that they could burst out the strongest impact force when charging.

Less than ten kilometers north of Chikto, more than 8,000 people from the 9th Brigade of the Third Cavalry Army of the Chinese Army were stationed here. The main forces of the subsequent Third Cavalry Army will also come one after another.

It will bear the burden of preventing the Russian troops from heading north and the Russian troops heading south from Ulan-Ude to reinforce the Chaktu. For the Third Cavalry Army, which has more than 40,000 elite cavalry, this combat mission is not

difficult.

"The artillery position is ready. In a short time, the Russians will launch an attack. Be prepared so that these Russians will know how powerful we are!" Brigadier General An Hongyuan, the brigade chief of the 9th Cavalry Brigade, ordered. The cavalry of the Chinese Army

Unlike the Russian cavalry, their main equipment is rifles and sabers, and there are very few heavy weapons. The cavalry of the Chinese army is still equipped with heavy machine guns and mortars according to the infantry equipment. The improved gas

Cold heavy machine guns are only twenty-five kilograms. Even if you bring bullets, you can carry them with a war horse. The weight of the mortar is not as good as a howitzer. After disassembly, you can easily carry them with a war horse.

. Therefore, the firepower of the cavalry of the Chinese army is much stronger than that of the Russian cavalry.

The powerful firepower makes the tactics of the cavalry of the Chinese army very different. They will not use sabers as their main weapon like Russian cavalry. The sabers are just weapons that replace guns and cannons after fierce battles. Even in cavalry wars

Among them, the firepower advantage should be used to charge. Compared with that, the life of a soldier is much more precious than weapons and ammunition.

The artillery battalion of the 9th Cavalry Brigade is a two-company artillery battalion, with 12 120mm heavy howitzers and 12 Type 82 75mm infantry cannons. Now, these cannons are lined up on the hastyly built artillery positions.

In front of the cavalry of the 9th Brigade were 60 heavy machine guns and 100 mortars with 60 mm caliber and 80 mm caliber. They were ready and were waiting for the Russians themselves

It rushed up. Of course, if the Russians were not fooled, they wouldn't care. After all, the longer the time delayed, the more beneficial it would be to China. When the main force of the Third Cavalry Army arrived, these Russians would have wings.

It's hard to fly.

At 12 noon, while the soldiers of the 9th Cavalry Brigade were enjoying delicious cans, a large number of dark shadows appeared on the grassland in the distance. These shadows were slowly moving, three kilometers away.

The 6th Cossack Cavalry Division came, and the more than 6,000 men were from the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division. Although the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division might be able to escape by relying on speed that had not yet been fully formed, the tens of thousands of people in Chucktu were behind.

But the Russian army could not escape. Major General Turgenev, the commander of the Russian army in Chikto, would not give up the tens of thousands of Russian troops running alone. That's why he ordered his 6th Cossack Cavalry Division to defeat the Chinese cavalry

, open the passage for the defenders of Caktu. However, it seemed that he should overestimate his 6th Cossack Cavalry Division.

"The Brigade Commander, the famous Cossack Cavalry Division is here! Let me bring people with you! Our Mongolian cavalry is not inferior to their Cossack Cavalry at all. I want to prove to the world that our Mongolian cavalry is the strongest

!” said Colonel Chobalu, deputy commander of the 9th Cavalry Brigade. In a very long time, when their Mongol ancestors dominated the Eurasian continent, the ancestors of these Cossacks were still trembling. Now these Cossack cavalry are still ashamed of their shame

It is shameless to call himself the king of field warriors. Seventy percent of the Third Cavalry Army are all Mongolian warriors, and they are also very disgusted with the Cossack cavalry. In their opinion, they

Mongolian cavalry is much more powerful than Cossack cavalry.

"Haha, how can the Cossack cavalry compare with us? However, there is no time for you to fight hard with these Cossack cavalry! We must make full use of our advantages and severely damage these Cossack cavalry, rather than fighting hard with them one by one

!After all, this is on the battlefield, everything must be considered in order to win victory!" Brigadier General An Hongyuan, the chief of the 9th Cavalry Brigade. After the invention of heavy machine guns, the status of cavalry was greatly challenged, especially in the light and heavy

This is even more true in front of the Chinese cavalry with full firepower. Although it has to be admitted, in fact, the cavalry has been formed and declining. When tanks, armored vehicles and other weapons appear, it is when the cavalry completely withdraws from the stage of history. Of course,

The cavalry of the 9th Cavalry Brigade is not an infantryman riding horses, they have also been trained with professional sabers. However, in the event of no last resort, An Hongyuan still hopes to consume the enemy with strong firepower to maximize the

Save your strength to the limit.

Although Colonel Chobalu, deputy commander of the 9th Cavalry Brigade, was a little angry and thought that this was not a real warrior. But he had to admit that it was much easier to deal with the Cossacks with machine guns and cannons than with sabers.

, This is a bit unsatisfactory. However, if the horse gallops and wields a sabre, you can cut off the enemy's head with only a small force, and then blood gushs out. This feeling makes people excited.

The Cossack Cavalrymen of the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division stayed three kilometers away from the 9th Cavalry Brigade and did not immediately launch an attack. Because the division commander Turgenev was still commanding the battle in Chiktu, the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division

The command of the deputy division commander Yukos is in command.

After putting down the telescope in his hand, Yukos, deputy commander of the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division, looked very ugly. There were nearly 10,000 Chinese cavalrymen on the opposite side, and so many heavy machine guns were deployed. If the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division was asked to charge.

If it is, it is simply seeking death. Although the Cossack warriors are not afraid of death, how can their flesh and blood resist steel?

"Deputy Commander, what should we do now? Should we launch an attack?" a regiment commander asked.

Deputy Division Commander Yukos was also a little hesitant. If he charges, he would definitely hit the stone with an egg. But if he doesn't charge, it will only become increasingly unfavorable to the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division as time goes by.

"Attack, deputy commander, we haven't been long. The Chinese encirclement is about to form. If we cannot open the passage in time, we will be dead!" Many officers suggested.

"Occurrence! Let these cowards see the courage of our Cossack cavalry!" Yukos, deputy commander of the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division, finally issued an order. Although the Chinese cavalry were well prepared and had very strong firepower, they didn't care.

It is believed that before the bullet hit them, they can rush over and use the saber in their hands to harvest the lives of these cowards.

"Ula!Ula!" After the order was issued, the warriors of the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division shouted. They instigated the war horses, first ran slowly, and then became faster and faster, and soon started to run at high speed.

.

The distance of three kilometers is only a few minutes for these high-speed Cossack cavalrymen. Their rifles heading north have been removed, and these Cossack cavalrymen can still shoot even if they run at high speed.

Shooting. It’s just that the accurate head is not as good as when it is still. With this riding technique alone, few national cavalry can compare.

"Artificial artillery prepare! Open fire!" An Hongyuan, the 9th Cavalry Brigade, issued an order to open fire when the Cossack cavalry rushed into less than 1,500 meters away from them. The 12 120mm ZTE urged on the artillery position.

The cannons and 12 Type 82 75mm infantry artillery fired one after another, and rows of shells roared into the team of the 6th Cossack Cavalry Division that was charging at high speed, blowing them up and overturning their horses. The shrapnel flying everywhere were harvesting these

The life of the fearless Cossack cavalry!
