Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

Lieutenant General Kuropatkin, commander of the Russian Western Route Army, led the Western Route Army Brigade to approach the Han Army's Blue Dragon Legion, but suddenly there was artillery fire in the distance, which shocked Lieutenant General Kuropatkin and felt that something was not right.

The Cossack cavalry division is definitely not equipped with any firearms, which means that the Han army is equipped with a large number of firearms, according to the sound from afar, Lieutenant General Kuropatkin feels that the four Cossack cavalry divisions are probably going to be finished, if a Cossack cavalry division is allowed to attack a Russian infantry division, the Russian infantry division only equipped with Bodan rifles and old breech guns can also repel the attack of the Cossack cavalry division, not to mention that the firepower of the Han army in the distance is more ferocious.

At this time, the Cossack cavalry had already launched an attack on the Han position, and Lieutenant General Kuropatkin ordered that it was too late for the Cossack cavalry, and Lieutenant General Kuropatkin could only order four Russian infantry divisions to speed up to the front in order to relieve the pressure on the Cossack cavalry.

"Order the whole army to speed up! I only hope that the stupid Cossack cavalry, who did not obey orders, will not be wiped out. The latter sentence, of course, was uttered by Lieutenant General Kuropatkin in his own heart.

The headquarters of the Blue Dragon Legion

"Commander, report from the front, the vanguard of the Russian army is less than three kilometers away from the forward position of our army." A staff officer answered the phone and reported to Niu Dehou.

Niu Dehou touched his chin and said: "It seems that Lao Maozi is in a hurry, and he ordered the First Brigade to ask him Luo Pengju to add some material to Lao Maozi, but don't scare Lao Maozi away." ”

"Yes!"

Not long after, the 1st Brigade of the 2nd Division, which was in charge of the frontal position, gathered the 75-mm field guns of the whole brigade, a total of 40 guns, and launched a fierce bombardment of the Russian brigade in front.

Rumble!

The Russian army advanced rapidly in a dense formation, and there was no cover, every shell of the Han army fell, more than a dozen Russian soldiers were killed and disabled, and the first brigade of the second division of the Han army was covered by a round of firepower, and more than 300 Russian soldiers were killed and disabled.

"Shelling! Spread out, spread out, don't stop, keep rushing! The Russian officer drew his command knife and shouted loudly.

Under the orders of the officers, the formation of the Russian army, which was somewhat chaotic, quickly dispersed, so that after five rounds of artillery salvos of the Han army, only nearly a thousand Russian soldiers were killed, but this was enough for the Russian army.

In order to save the Cossack cavalry, even when the Han army was shelling, the Russian army did not stop, and when the Han army's shelling ended, the formation of the Russian army's forward team recovered under the angry scolding of the officers, and continued to unswervingly march quickly towards the Han army's position.

On the other side, four Cossack cavalry divisions charged from the left, right, and rear of the Blue Dragon Corps, but the powerful artillery fire of the Han army caused heavy losses to the Cossack cavalry, and the Cossack cavalry immediately turned around and fled after paying more than 5,000 casualties, but the Cossack cavalry was too close to the Han army's position, and had completely rushed into a range of one thousand meters, in this range, how could the Han army let the enemy escape easily.

Heavy machine guns in the rainstorm continued to spray deadly bullets, and the coverage of the mortars gradually expanded, with the maximum range of 1,300 meters from the 60-mm mortars, the mortar shells always covered the Cossack cavalry farthest from the Han position.

There were also sharpshooters in the Han army, who were always aiming at the most richly decorated of the Cossack cavalry, who were clearly officers.

"Run!"

"The enemy fire is too fierce!"

"Ahh I was shot, who will save me. ”

The Cossack cavalry anxiously rushed forward, even if one of his compatriots fell off his horse in front, the people behind would not hesitate to ride and step on, not daring to pause at all, even if an officer fell to the ground in front of him, it would be the same treatment, and nothing else was important compared to his own life.

The speed of the Cossack cavalry was fast, but the bullets and shells of the Han army were even faster, and the Cossack cavalry fleeing frantically in front fell one by one, and the Cossack cavalry rushing to the front might be sent to hell by a mortar shell.

This is the real battlefield, the battlefield where bullets and artillery are raining down, the Cossack cavalry was slaughtered by the Han army, and the corpses of the Cossack cavalry were all over the field and the blood flowed like a river.

"Cavalry pursuit!"

Seeing that the remaining Cossack cavalry, which was less than 2,500, was about to escape from the range of Han fire, the 3,000 Han cavalry, which was ready to go, divided into three directions and pursued the Cossack cavalry.

The Cossack cavalry ran from a long distance, and the physical exertion of the horses was huge, and in the face of the energetic and high-morale Han cavalry, its fate can be imagined.

Just when the Cossack cavalry fled, the large Russian army in front was only 1,500 meters away from the Han position, the Russian artillery was already building artillery positions, and the Russian infantry formed a phalanx under the reprimand of the officers, and the Russian infantry straightened their waists, held rifles, and strode firmly towards the Han position.

The formation of the Russian army is obviously the formation of the platoon gun tactics, and it is also the enemy formation that the Han soldiers like to encounter the most, and it is the easiest thing to shoot the enemy in this formation, and the victory of the Han army is in sight.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

The 75mm field artillery of the Han army began to exert its power again, and their target was the artillery positions of the Russian army, if the Russian artillery was to be powerful, even if it was only an old breech gun, it would bring huge casualties to the Han army.

The Russian artillery positions were shelled by the enemy, which had nothing to do with the Russian infantry, and the Russian infantry still strode forward unswervingly, with their fingers lightly pressed on the trigger of their rifles, ready to shoot at any time.

When the Russian infantry was only more than 500 meters away from the Han army's position, the impatient Han soldiers opened fire in unison under the orders of their superiors, and the steel storm formed by countless bullets swallowed up one Russian infantry phalanx after another in the blink of an eye.

Rumble!

As soon as a shell fell in the dense ranks of Russian troops, more than forty Russian soldiers were devoured. The thirsty 105-mm howitzers of the Han army were exerting power, and two 105-mm howitzer regiments with a total of 72 artillery pieces devoured more than 2,500 Russian soldiers with a single salvo.

There are also hundreds of 75-mm field guns and 60-mm mortars, all pouring shells into the ranks of the Russian army.

In just a few tens of seconds, the 43,000 Russian troops pressed in by the army suffered more than 7,000 casualties.

"It's not good, withdraw quickly, withdraw the troops." Lieutenant General Kuropatkin, who was still wondering why the Han army had ceased fire with the Cossack cavalry division, suddenly heard the sound of fierce gunfire at a closer distance, and suddenly understood that he was afraid that his enemy had already defeated the Cossack cavalry, and now such a powerful firepower poured on the dense Russian infantry, what kind of scene would be produced, Lieutenant General Kuropatkin no longer dared to imagine.

Just when Lieutenant General Kuropatkin gave the order to withdraw the troops, the commanders of the four Russian major generals in front had already given the order to retreat as soon as they saw that the enemy's fire was so fierce, but the infantry, which was slower than the Cossack cavalry, could escape the bullets like a torrential rain?
