The One Hundred And Fifty Sixth Strong Cavalry Showdown (The First Update, Please Subscribe!)
The cavalry unit has always been the treasure of the Orientals, although the Japanese horses are short in size and are not suitable for riding and fighting.
But since the Ming Zhi Restoration, the Orientals have continuously introduced European horse breeds and improved the Oriental horses.
This makes the current Dongyang horse a tall horse, very suitable for riding and fighting, and can be called a first-class military horse.
The Eastern Army also attached great importance to the construction of cavalry.
As early as ten years ago, during the battle against the Qing Empire, they had formed 9 cavalry brigades. And now, the cavalry of the Orientals has reached 95 cavalry squadrons.
In another time and space, during the war of the Eastern Tsarist Russian Empire, the Japanese cavalry defeated the Russian cavalry head-on, which shocked the whole world.
However, in this time and space, the Orientals may not have this opportunity.
After receiving the order, the 5th Cavalry Regiment of the Eastern Army quickly advanced towards Dashiqiao.
But when they arrived, the 5th Cavalry Brigade and 51st Infantry Division of the Tsarist Russian Army had already entered Dashiqiao.
After the scouts discovered the Japanese cavalry 3, Brigadier General Semyonovich, commander of the 5th Cavalry Brigade of the Tsarist Russian Army, immediately ordered the 5th Cavalry Brigade to take the initiative to attack and encircle and wipe out the 5th Cavalry Wing of the Japanese.
"Order the 1st Battalion and 2nd Battalion to face the Japanese cavalry head-on. The 3rd Battalion and 4th Battalion are to turn around. The 5th Battalion and 6th Battalion are to attack the rear of the Japanese cavalry. Make sure that in this battle, all They make sure!" Brigadier General Semyonovich ordered.
"Yes, Your Excellency General!" The adjutant immediately conveyed the order.
Immediately, the first cavalry tour of the Tsarist Russian Army started.
A large number of cavalry units began to rush to their respective combat areas.
A cavalry brigade of the Tsarist Russian Army has more than 9,000 people. Even after deducting artillery, heavy troops, and troops directly under the brigade headquarters, there are more than 6,000 people in the six cavalry battalions!
It is simply too bullying to besiege a cavalry regiment of the Orientals with more than 6,000 people.
You know, a cavalry regiment of the Orientals only has more than 1,700 people. Divided into four cavalry brigades and a machine gun squadron. Each cavalry brigade is divided into two cavalry squadrons and one machine gun squadron. And each cavalry squadron has only more than one hundred and forty people.
The battle began soon, and before the cavalry of the Orientals reached Dashiqiao, they were attacked by the 5th Cavalry Brigade of the Tsarist Russian Army.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The Artillery Battalion under the 5th Cavalry Brigade is equipped with 24 75mm field guns.
These 75mm field guns opened fire immediately after the Dongyang cavalry came into range.
The shells fell and exploded in the cavalry ranks of the Orientals, and the shrapnel shot out, reaping the lives of these Japanese cavalrymen.
Some war horses were torn apart by shells, and some were lucky enough not to be killed, but they were still howling and neighing.
The oriental cavalry on horseback fell down, fell to the ground, and was even trampled to death by the galloping horses.
"The Russians have found us, charge! Beat the Russians, beat them!" Commander Yamada Takashi, commander of the 5th Cavalry Wing of the Eastern Army, ordered.
"Come on! His Majesty Tianhuang is onboard! The Eastern Empire is onboard!"
The remaining Eastern cavalry rode their horses and rushed towards the Russian defense line.
The two cavalry battalions of the 5th Cavalry Brigade of the Tsarist Russian Army stood in front of the Eastern Cavalry.
These Tsarist Russian cavalrymen have all dismounted at this moment.
Because it was too late to build a line of defense, they directly blocked the horses in front of them. Then put the lance on the horseback and aimed at the Dongyang cavalry.
A frame of Maxim heavy machine guns, light machine guns and mortars were all set up.
"Stupid Orientals, do they think this is still the age of cold weapons?" Brigadier General Semyonovich looked at the Eastern cavalry with their sabers raised high, his face full of disdain.
"Fire!" Brigadier General Semyonovich ordered.
"Boom boom boom! Da da da!"
Mortars and light and heavy machine guns fired one after another.
The dense artillery shells fell into the cavalry formation of the Orientals, turning those who were bombed by the Orientals on their backs.
And the dense bullets fired by the light and heavy machine guns shot and killed these Eastern cavalrymen.
"Puff! Puff!"
Neither the war horses nor the cavalry of the Orientals could withstand these dense bullets and were shot to death in large numbers.
After the war horse was shot, it fell to the ground and let out a shrill neigh. I want to get up, but I can't do it.
Facing the dense machine gun firepower of the Tsarist Russian cavalry, the charge of the Eastern cavalry seemed to be deadly.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The lances in the hands of the Tsarist Russian cavalry also fired one after another, shooting and killing the Eastern cavalry who were close.
"Shameless Russians, are they cavalry or infantry? This is an embarrassment to the cavalry!" Mr. Takashi Yamada almost vomited blood from anger when he saw this scene.
Originally, when he saw the Tsarist Russian cavalry dismounting one after another and hiding behind their horses, he laughed in his heart at these Tsarist Russian cavalry for being too timid. If it were the Eastern Cavalry, they would never do such a thing. In the eyes of the Eastern Cavalry, war horses are not only their best partners, but even more important than their own lives.
But now, the Tsarist Russian cavalry directly slaughtered the Eastern cavalry with powerful artillery and machine gun fire, which directly drove Yamada Takashi almost crazy.
In his opinion, shouldn't the cavalry's 013 duel be a charge by both sides and fight with sabers?
But now the Tsarist Russian cavalry's tactics are simply infantry tactics, which is really helpless.
"Order the cavalry to retreat, Tu machine gun squadron and machine gun squadron are ready to fire!"
As a last resort, Mr. Yamada Takashi had to issue an order to retreat.
However, after the withdrawal of these Eastern cavalry, less than half of them remained.
Although, the Eastern Cavalry is also equipped with a lot of heavy machine guns. However, they faced the shelling of a large number of field artillery and mortars from the Tsarist Russian cavalry. This caused the machine guns of the Eastern Cavalry to be destroyed before they could be of much use.
Immediately afterwards, several other cavalry battalions of the 5th Cavalry Brigade of the Tsarist Russian Army also completed a detour and launched a fierce attack on the 1st Cavalry Wing of the Eastern Army.
There are Tsarist Russian cavalry in all directions, which is almost completely desperate for the 5th Eastern Cavalry Regiment.
After Yamada Takashi discovered this situation, he immediately ordered the troops to break through, and wanted to go to join the 9th Brigade of the Synchronous Army. But unfortunately, in the face of many powerful enemies, they simply can't do it.
The battle ended soon, and the 5th Cavalry Wing of the Eastern Army was almost wiped out. Only a handful of people succeeded in breaking through and joined the 9th Infantry Brigade. .
