Ten Dragons Take the Inheritance

Chapter 399 Lure the enemy to go deep

The confrontation between cavalry and infantry is a very old topic. Before the invention of modern firearms, cavalry fighting infantry was often as easy as chopping melons and cutting vegetables. However, when modern firearms were used in large-scale warfare, the situation has already changed. It is no longer an easy task for cavalry with cold weapons to break through the formation of musketeers. It can even be said that the frontal charge of cavalry is not much different from suicide. History has proved this point-this In time and space, 4000 cavalry from Zhungeer attacked [-] Russian Musketeers and were defeated; in the time and space where Yin Zuo came from, Seng Gelinqin led [-] Mongolian cavalry and [-] infantry to attack [-] The British and French allied forces of more than a hundred people, although the Qing army did not retreat, only killed a few dozen invaders, but their own casualties were as many as [-] (the Battle of Baliqiao).

Courage is certainly a necessary condition for an army to win a battle, but courage alone is not enough to win a battle. The Mongolian cavalry never lacks the courage to charge forward, but it is a pity that the price of their bravery is to rush to the gate of hell one after another. ——Old Maozi Even the artillery was not used, but after a few volleys, the three thousand Kalkha Mongolian cavalry who rushed forward fell down more than a thousand cavalry, and the rest hurriedly turned their horses' heads and fled into the slanting stab .

Ah Quan Ah, who was always sprinting at the forefront, was very lucky to be unscathed in such a dense rain of bullets, but his face was already pale with fright, seeing many of his subordinates struggling in a pool of blood, he had never experienced a big battle The Ah Quan Ah was completely frightened, and shouted with a pale face: "Retreat, retreat!" He galloped and fled to the distance, completely ignoring whether his subordinates followed him or not, and whether the direction of escape was predetermined or not. line of retreat.

It will be the courage of the soldiers. This is absolutely true. Ah Quan Ah fled, and the group of Khalkha Mongolian cavalrymen under him suddenly lost their minds. They all swarmed away after Ah Quan Ah Shu. The problem is that the direction of escape of this group of defeated soldiers is completely different from the planned route. Seeing this, Cewang Allah shook his head frankly.

"Bah, you fucking trash!" Tseng Wang Alabutan had already stopped his horse, seeing that Quan Ah was losing his senses, the anger in his heart suddenly flared up.

"Great Khan, what should we do now?" Celing Dunduobu rode his horse to Tserwang Allah Butan's side and asked in a low voice.

"Hmph!" Tse Wang Alabatan snorted coldly, feeling as uncomfortable as eating a fly. According to the original plan, the Zhungeer Department should also turn to the scheduled retreat route at this time, but now it's good, Ah Quan'a ran in the wrong direction, and the Zhungeer Ministry did not follow, nor did it not follow—if the old Maozi could not be led to the front of Kalamaili Mountain, the Qing army and the old Maozi would not be able to fight at all. The benefited Zhungeer tribe could only bear the attack of Lao Maozi alone-the herdsmen gathered in Urumqi at this time could not migrate on a large scale at all, otherwise they would have to bear huge losses.

"Array." After thinking quickly for a while, Tse Wang Alabatan gave the order in a calm voice, but when the horn sounded, three thousand Zhungeer fine cavalry formed a charging formation, but did not launch an attack, but stopped at the Outside the range of muskets, every move of the Russian army was monitored.

"Oh, what do those yellow-skinned monkeys want to do?" Major General Buhruski looked at it for a while, and when he saw that the Zhungeer cavalry neither attacked nor retreated, he frowned and asked casually.

Major General Lolinski shrugged his shoulders and whistled: "Oh, maybe they are waiting for us to launch an attack."

"Hmm, have you learned well? Ha, then let's teach them another offensive lesson. Order the artillery to prepare, and the first regiment is ready to move forward." Major General Buchruski gave the attack order without hesitation.After the messengers ran to deliver the order, Major General Buchruski glanced at Major General Lorinski and said, "Major General, get your people ready too, and my people will break them up later, and the rest If the remnant soldiers are defeated, let your people move and move, and by the way, save the face of being chased to the point of peeing your pants just now."

Major General Lolinsky turned pale with anger, but there was nothing he could do. Who made his subordinates look so ugly just now, his face twitched for a while, but he still didn't reply in the end, and cursed in a low voice , and ignored Major General Buchruski, and ran to the flanks to gather all the Cossack cavalry, ready to launch a cavalry charge.

"Khan, the old man has moved. It looks like he is going to attack. Our army can no longer gather together and be shot, we have to disperse." Celing Dunduobu watched the Russian army launch more than ten artillery pieces in the formation, and immediately Guessing the intention of the Russian army, he hurriedly reminded.

"En." Cewang Allah Butan has suffered a lot from firearms, so he knows it very well, but at this time, if he wants to complete the task of luring the enemy, he has to make some sacrifices. After thinking about it, he said: "In the future Hundreds of people are in order, spread out, don't move rashly, and retreat to Caodianzi as soon as the enemy opens fire."

After a panic in the Russian army, an artillery major stood in front of the ranks, inspected back and forth, urged the artillerymen under him to set up the gun mounts, drew out the command knife at his waist, swung it sharply, and said loudly: "Fire! "The gunner, who had already been ready, lit the matchlock above the cannon with a long ignition stick. After hearing a creaking sound, more than ten cannons shook suddenly, with a loud bang, and more than a dozen shells roared and smashed into the ground. At the position where the Zhungeer cavalry was located, mud flowers exploded on the grass, broken soil, grass blades, mixed with the stumps of horses and horses, splashed around.Although the Zhungeer cavalry had dispersed, the actual casualties were not large, but they were still thrown into chaos by the shelling. People roared and horses neighed into a mess. Of course, there were some elements of drama in it.

Major General Buchruski whistled very easily: "Attack."

Standing at the forefront of the Russian phalanx, Colonel Olokask, the head of the Russian First Regiment, received an attack order from the messenger, drew out his command knife, pointed forward, and ordered loudly: "Attack! All for the sake of Empire, attack!" The drums sounded in the three Russian phalanxes with the battalion as the unit, and accompanied by the fierce drumbeats, the three Russian phalanxes began to move forward in neat steps with rifles in their hands.

Accompanying the Russian phalanx was the continuous firing of artillery from the rear. Although the density was not very high, and the lethality caused by hitting the soft grass was not very sufficient, it effectively disrupted the gathering of the Zhungeer troops. Formation efforts, until the Russian army has advanced to a distance of only fifty feet from Zhungeer's troops, the Zhungeer cavalry is still in chaos, and it is impossible to organize and charge at all. The Erbu cavalry is already within the effective range of the flintlock guns in the hands of the Russian army.

"Go..." The smug Colonel Olokask just raised his command saber and was about to give the order to shoot, when he saw more than a hundred cavalrymen among the rebellious army of the Zhungeer Department suddenly raised their guns, A burst of neat gunshots rang out, and Colonel Olokask, who was caught off guard, was hit by a bullet before he could say the word "fire". He became the No. 1 senior officer who died in Russia since the beginning of the war.

This sudden attack by the Zhungeer Ministry not only killed the frontline commander of the Russian army, but also shot and killed dozens of unprepared Russian soldiers. There was some riots in the Russian phalanx that lost its unified command for a while , Although the Russian troops in the three phalanxes also fired back, but the gunshots were messy, and at this time they had just reached the effective range of the flintlock guns. This counterattack did not cause much damage to the Zhungeer cavalry.

"Oh, damn it!" Seeing that his regimental commander was killed in a face-to-face, Major General Buchruski cursed viciously, took down a binoculars from his waist, held it up to his eyes and carefully After looking at it, I realized that the cavalrymen of the Zhungeer Department also had muskets in their hands. Although the number was not many and the styles were strange, they were very powerful. Suddenly, my heart skipped a beat, and I turned around and gave an order to the messenger: " Go, inform the interim commander of the first battalion and order the Cossacks to attack, and this cavalry must not be allowed to escape."

"What's going on?" Major General Lorinski, who suddenly received an order to attack, rode his horse to Major General Buchruski angrily, and asked loudly.

"Damn it, these yellow-skinned monkeys also have muskets in their hands. There are not many of them, but the firepower is very fierce. I guess this is their main force. We must not let them escape!" Major General Bukhruski said while handing the telescope To Major General Lorinski.

Although the breech-loading guns in the hands of the Zhungeer cavalry were fierce, they were not many in number. In addition, the ammunition was not very sufficient. A gun only had more than ten rounds of bullets, which was not enough to form an effective line of fire. After the shooting, the Russian First Regiment completely suppressed the Zhungeer's counterattack, and the dense rain of bullets made the Zhungeer's cavalry flee in embarrassment.

"Damn, where did their muskets come from?" Major General Lolinski put down his binoculars and cursed bitterly.

"Oh, it seems that only God knows this question. Well, let your people outflank and never let them escape. I need to live." Major General Buchruski shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Okay then!" Major General Lolinsky raised his two beards on his lower upper lip, and said with a sneer, "It depends on our Cossacks at the critical moment." He didn't care about Major General Bukhruski's expression as soon as he finished speaking. How ugly, he rode his horse back to the flank, drew out his command saber, pointed forward vigorously, and ordered loudly: "For the sake of the empire, for His Majesty the Emperor, the Cossack warriors attack!"

"Hurrah!" Two thousand Cossack cavalry shouted slogans and rushed out like a tide. The spears and sabers in their hands shone with the cold light of death in the sun. At the same time, the Russian artillery also began to roar. The shells hit the already chaotic cavalry positions of the Zhungeer Department.

"Khan, it's almost time, you can withdraw, if you don't leave, you will suffer heavy casualties if you get entangled by the old man." Seeing that the Cossack cavalry had already attacked, Celing Dunduobu couldn't help feeling a little anxious, and rushed to the horse. Zewang Arabutan's side, suggested loudly.

"Okay, retreat, and act according to the original plan!" Ce Wang Alabatan glanced at Cering Dunduobu meaningfully, led the horse's head, and rushed to the right rear of the battlefield, making a mess When the Zhungeer cavalry saw the Shuai flag moving, they immediately followed the Shuai flag in a swarm and ran towards the planned retreat direction.

This encounter did not last long. In less than an hour, more than [-] Khalkha Mongolian cavalrymen were killed and more than [-] were injured; more than [-] of the Zhungeer troops were killed and injured; more than [-] Russian Cossacks were killed and injured. People; more than [-] Russian musketeers died, and the battle has reached this point. It can be said that the Mongolian cavalry suffered a disastrous defeat. It stands to reason that the Russian army should be satisfied with the results of this battle and can withdraw troops, but Major General Lolinsky felt depressed. In a fire, without him, apart from the self-esteem hurt caused by the contempt of Major General Bukhruski, the more important thing is that most of the people who died in the Russian army were his subordinates. How could he let it go? Relying on the speed of his horse, he chased after the Zhungeer cavalry in the direction where the cavalry fled without stopping.

Major General Buchruski didn't expect that Zhungeer's troops would run away as soon as his own cavalry was dispatched, and he was a little dumbfounded. The messenger blew the bugle call to withdraw troops, but he never thought that Major General Lorinski would ignore it at all, leading the Cossack cavalry to still charge fast.

"Oh, damn it!" Major General Buchruski slapped his palm angrily, and ordered loudly: "The whole army defends on the spot and cleans the battlefield."

The Zhungeer cavalry and the Cossack cavalry fled and chased, rolling up dust all over the sky on the prairie, and gradually went away. Major General Bukhruski got off his horse, sat down on the grass and sulked, thinking Waiting for Major General Lolinski to come back, how to humiliate this person.

"General, look, these are muskets captured on the battlefield, oh, and there is also a map." Lieutenant Colonel Konevsky, acting as the temporary head of the first regiment, rode his horse to Major General Buchruski, Handed over a broken breech-loading gun and a map.

Major General Buchruski is a master of guns. He took the broken breech-loading gun in his hand and inspected it carefully. All the Zhungeer cavalry have this gun, so there is no need to fight this battle!Major General Buchruski was stunned for a long time before throwing the broken gun in his hand aside, picked up the map, and only glanced at it, his face immediately revealed an expression of ecstasy...
