Summary of 582 cavalry tactics
In Hexi Prefecture, the First Cavalry Regiment that returned to the camp quickly entered a state of recuperation, although it was a recuperation, but they had not yet relaxed, because many of their military units would submit more combat reports, summary reports, etc., because they fought well in this battle, and performed above, in such a situation, they wanted to do many, many other things to complete, and to complete such a good thing, they need to do a lot of other things to deal with, how to achieve such a point, This requires them to seriously summarize it themselves.
"Actually, I don't know how, anyway, we're just using the infantry set for it. If there's any lesson to be learned, it's according to my own words. Lieutenant Colonel Zhang Dai said with some embarrassment, Ma Liu specially organized officers at all levels and listened to Zhang Dai's report, because the Fourth Cavalry Battalion fought very well, although the 123rd Battalion was very unconvinced, but in front of the specific data, their own casualty reports, and the results assessment report, they had to be convinced, because it was impossible for you to be unconvinced. Such a report of the results of the battle is definitely not blown. This is not convincing.
"Then talk about what you thought about at the time, and the problems you found in the summary now, otherwise, this meeting will not end until you say a reason." Ma Liu seriously took out his notebook and began to record it, Ma Liu knew that those veteran cavalry were very unconvinced, but they were not convinced, the reason was very simple, the current period of rapid development of their cavalry regiment, in the future, they need more cavalry. It may be a cavalry division or a cavalry corps, but if they can't come up with a good tactic, how they should deal with it next, or how they should fight next, is entirely due to their own failure to do a good job.
Therefore, Ma Liu must take such a thing seriously, they must have a serious attitude in order to make their affairs more favorable, otherwise, in the face of such a result, it is absolutely impossible to agree to it.
"Well, I'll tell you when we were in the infantry. I have studied such tactics, frontal attack, the force required is the largest, even if we have firearms, the attack becomes very sharp, but the problem is that a frontal breakthrough also needs troops, but our forces do not have an advantage, firearms are one of our weapons, but the other weapon, is our legs, the commander told us, the tactics taught us are that when the front cannot break through, we must boldly detour, outflank, attack from the flank, from the back, the frontal defense is very powerful, This shows that the enemy has focused a lot of attention on the front, their buttocks, their backs have no one to defend at all, in the past, our infantry always had to keep playing leggings, there were not too many opportunities to fight, most of them were running, which is why we had to wear so many boots, it can be said that the infantry can win the officers and soldiers, and win the Hun cavalry, more rely on the soles of our feet, not only to run fast, but also to attack boldly. "Zhang Dai has something to say, anyway, he thinks so.
"Now, we are cavalry. With horses, this is much faster than when we were in the infantry. Now that the speed has come up. When we are fighting, we should fight more easily. In the past, when we fought officers and troops, we did not have the advantage of troops, but we continued to maneuver and use the tactics of outflanking and outflanking. We were able to achieve such results all at once. In such a situation, our advantage will become very large. In such a situation, our advantage will become very advantageous. Because we are invisibly equivalent to increasing our troops, why, because our forces are constantly maneuvering. We did not stop, but the enemy, they followed us, they were passive, in this way, some of them kept up, some did not keep up, some of them were beaten by us, and then they became extremely passive, and in such a situation, their situation would become extremely passive, even chaotic, just as our combat report said, the situation of the army became unfavorable in that situation. Zhang Dai said.
"I'm a stupid person, I don't know if I can make it clear, anyway, we keep attacking, in addition to the firearms in our hands, there is also our footboard, that is, the horse's hooves, let the horses run, keep running, run everywhere, bring the enemy into chaos, and then we can win in the chaos, in the battle, win the victory, things, things are like this." Ma Liu said that after listening to such a report, many people were surprised, but they also vaguely heard some doorways. That is, they have to constantly maneuver to fight, and at the same time, they have to continue to fight, in the process of maneuvering, looking for the enemy's weaknesses, launching an attack, not only that, they also have to maneuver to drive the enemy, so that the enemy falls into a passive situation.
As for the tactics, it was still a roundabout outflank, attacking from angles that the enemy did not expect, and in this case, a high degree of cooperation between the cavalry was required, which was something they could not believe.
"Of course. And the brothers in the air, who gave us a great command, although there was no command in the back. The main thing is that our team is completely dispersed. It's messed up. But in the beginning they provided intelligence support, otherwise we would not know where the war would have been. In this regard, the advantage of the air brethren is still very large. As for weapons. Personally, I think that this firearm is good, but it also has a disadvantage, that is, it cannot be fired continuously, and if there are weapons that are fired continuously, our situation will be better. In such a situation, a lot of things for us will become extremely favorable, and things, in short, that's about it. Zhang Dai said.
The venue was quiet, many people looked at Zhang Dai, which made Zhang Dai very embarrassed, he didn't know what to say, so many people looked at him, he didn't know what to say.
"Bang bang." Ma Liu was the first to applaud, followed by a large number of people applauding, and everyone at the venue applauded him, which made Zhang Dai very embarrassed.
"I think it's very good, not only about tactics, but also about improvements, and it's very good, do you hear it?" Ma Liu stood up and asked.
"Understood." The officers agreed one after another.
"Okay, that's what we have to do, no matter what, we need to do a lot of things well, do them seriously, do such things well, only in this way, our cavalry can develop, can we completely solve many, many things, only in this way, our cavalry, can be real cavalry." Ma Liu said.
"What is the power of the Hun cavalry, I see, this time it has come to the essence. Mobility, the Hun cavalry is powerful is their cavalry, can quickly assault our depth, this is their most powerful place, but once they lose speed, mobility, they are difficult to advance, this time is the case, they are relatively stationary, they move extremely slowly, in this case, they have no advantage at all, this is not anything to us. But now, all at once, our advantage is there. In such a situation, our situation will develop to a new level, and our cavalry of the Republican Army will have to have its own superiority in mobility. We're going to fight our own Republican cavalry. Ma Liu said this, and the officers applauded warmly. However, the summary report still needs to be summarized.
There are still many shortcomings of the Republican cavalry, and if they can't react to such things in time, their development situation will not be too favorable, and even, what they need to do will not have much development advantage.
The Republican cavalry is still in the mature stage, and any kind of careful temptation can bring about a great change in them, and they need such a change too much to deal with different measures and related developments. This is the current situation with the Republican Army.

How to change the cavalry, the staff was also thinking about this issue, but most of the questions they thought about were not too realistic, so much so that Shang Wu put these reports aside.
"Our main direction in the future is the north, there are grasslands in the north, there are mountains, there are resources there, we need a lot of things, climate, local customs, etc., we have to understand. Another point is that the cavalry, our cavalry, is not yet tactically mature enough, moreover, we do not have the experience of large-scale mobile operations, and in reconnaissance, our shortcomings are also very large. Shang Wu said.
"But we don't know how to change it, and I think we need to think about it from different angles. Our staff officers, the angle of thinking is not right, they should think from the point of view of strategy, future development. The front line can be improved tactically, technically, and we need to think from a higher perspective. Shang Wu said.
"I agree with that, but we still need more information, and this time the supply of intelligence is very bad, and our intelligence is too backward." Jia Xu said.
