Chapter 934: Fighting Ge Mountaineering (5)

Under the fierce bombardment of the Qing army's heavy artillery and battle defense artillery, the Russian artillery finally could not support it, and no longer dared to show the front of the army, a group of gunners dragged the artillery to the rear of the formation, but the artillery regiments of the Qing army did not stop firing because of this, six heavy artillery and many battle defense guns have adjusted their secret positions, unceremoniously poured artillery fire into the Russian army's forward infantry phalanx, and then exploded the Russian army for a long time - the battle defense artillery is just that, limited to range and power, can only attack the front of the Russian phalanx, The power of the explosion is not too fierce, but the heavy artillery is amazingly powerful, although the rate of fire is not fast, basically it takes two minutes to shoot a shot, but the effective firing range is 1,200 meters away, except for the Russian army deployed in the middle of the mountain of Geden Mountain, all the Russian positions, including the battalion, are within the range of heavy artillery, only one shell passed, and a death zone within a radius of ten zhang was created on the Russian array, only three rounds of firing down, and the Russian troops in the dense array were already killed and wounded more than 1,000 people, The state of affairs can be described as miserable.

"Heh, it seems that these bastards are not going to attack again, and they are ready to ......"

It is impossible to win a battle by defense, and the same is true by artillery bombardment, even if the artillery fire of the Qing army is fierce, it is absolutely impossible to annihilate the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, this point, Hongqing knows it very well, the reason why he is not in a hurry to launch a counterattack, but he wants to annihilate more of the Russian army's living forces in the defensive battle, and now, the artillery of the Qing army is about to overheat + one + this + read +, and I am stunned that there is no sign of the Russian army attacking or withdrawing, Hongqing does not want to wait any longer, This was about to give the order to launch the scheduled battle signal, but before the words were finished, suddenly I saw a burst of fierce war drums in the Russian army's formation, and several groups of infantry phalanxes on the center and right flanks began to move forward.

What's going on, still attacking?

Hongqing's eyes have always been very good, although separated by a distance of one and a half miles, he can still clearly see the changes in the formation of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, this time seeing the middle and right wings of the Russian army moving together, not to mention, the Dzungar army on the left wing is also deploying troops, it seems that it is ready to launch a general attack, and I can't help but have a lot of doubts in my heart, no matter how many troops the Three Kingdoms Alliance Army dispatches, in front of the Qing army that is waiting for the battle, it is difficult to get much benefit, after all, the difference in the level of firepower projection between the two sides is too big, if it is defensive, Perhaps it can also cause a lot of trouble to the Qing army, and the all-out attack is just a plain death, and there is no progress at all, which can be seen from the previous two wars, and there is no doubt that the posture of the Three Kingdoms Alliance to prepare for an attack with all its strength is obviously unreasonable.

"Order: All departments block this round of thieves' attack, and the camera launches a counterattack!"

Although Hongqing is wise, he is not a god in the end, and he will not know that the unreasonable all-out general attack of the Three Kingdoms Alliance is actually just a dying struggle made by Lieutenant General Tolsky in order to keep command and face, but this does not prevent Hongqing from making a correct decision.

"Knock, knock......"

The actions of the Russian army in the middle are quite resolute, in the passionate drumbeat, the first army of the Russian Siberian border defense is deployed in a wide frontal way, the three divisions are divided into three sequences, each sequence is a division, the four regiments are divided into four phalanxes, the sequence is thirty meters apart, in order to form a wave-like attack posture, although the speed of the march is not fast, but the momentum is extremely amazing, at the same time, the right flank Russian army also dispatched two divisions again, also in a wide frontal way, forming two echelons, As for the Dzungar army on the left flank, it was a joint attack of infantry and cavalry, with cavalry opening the road and infantry following up, but the number of troops invested was not too much - the infantry and cavalry armies combined only dispatched more than 10,000 people, and the speed of march was extremely slow, far behind the two Russian troops. Obviously not very strong.

"Order: Infantry artillery fire at full strength, heavy artillery and battle defense artillery are on standby!"

Seeing that the enemy army in the middle had crossed such a cordon of 400 meters, Yue Zhongqi did not dare to ignore it, and as soon as he raised his hand, he had already given a loud order.

"Order: The artillery will hit Lao Tzu hard!"

Just when Yue Zhongqi gave the order, Zhang Miao also issued an order, but the difference was that Zhang Miao did not leave a second hand, and both heavy artillery and light infantry artillery roared.

"Follow me, assault!"

As soon as the artillery on the left flank of the Qing army rang out like this, Khmelnitsky, who was still standing still between the middle and the right flank, immediately raised his saber, roared, and led his troops to start a wild charge, aiming directly at the left flank of the Qing army.

"Fire with all your strength and block Lao Maozi's cavalry!"

The artillery of the Qing army has just fired a round, even if it is the easiest to load light infantry guns, it has not yet completed the preparation for firing, and the advance of the Cossack cavalry has rushed to less than three hundred meters away from the Qing army's array.

"Da ......, Bang Bang ......"

The order was given, the Qing officers and soldiers who had been on standby for a long time immediately heard the order, pulled the trigger together, the machine guns swept wildly, the guns fired indiscriminately, and in an instant, countless bullet chains were like a downpour of rain towards the Cossack cavalry rushing towards the front of the Cossack cavalry, when even if the Cossack cavalry forward was in a big mess, with countless casualties, but even so, it was difficult to stop the progress of the Cossack cavalry's impact, and after a while, the rushing Cossack cavalry vanguard had already killed only one hundred and fifty meters away from the Qing army's array.

"Order: Cavalry 1st Division to attack and block the enemy cavalry!"

The distance of one hundred and fifty meters, for the galloping war horse, is just a matter of moments, even if the Qing infantry on the right flank has opened fire with all their might, but without the cooperation of artillery, it is obviously impossible to block the surprise attack of the Cossack cavalry, and at this time, the two infantry divisions under the command of Huachaivsky took advantage of the Qing army's firepower to be attracted by their own cavalry, and rushed forward, and the phalanx at the forefront has also rushed to the distance less than two hundred and fifty meters away from the Qing army array, if there is no accident, The right wing of the Qing army will inevitably fall into a bitter battle, in this regard, although Zhang Miao has already predicted, but there is no way at all, he can't help but be anxious, fortunately, Yue Zhongqi in the middle of the road is keenly aware of the crisis of the right wing, and he can't care about much, so he has hurriedly issued an order to support the right wing.

"Follow me, kill the thief, kill the thief, kill the thief!"

The 1st Cavalry Division deployed at the junction of the middle and right roads has only two brigades, with a total strength of only 6,000 cavalry, but there are still about 20,000 Cossack cavalry to face, and the gap between them is not small.

"The first and second divisions then rushed forward, and the third division, turn to the right, stop the cavalry of the yellow-skinned monkeys, kill!"

As soon as the Qing Army's 1st Cavalry Division was killed, Khmelnitsky, who was leading his troops to press the formation in the rear, immediately became vigilant, and did not dare to sit back and watch his own charging formation be disrupted, so he shouted and led the 3rd Cossack Cavalry Division that followed behind to turn to the middle and kill the 1st Qing Cavalry Division.

"Grenades, throw!"

The Qing Army's First Cavalry Division is a veteran of horse warfare, so there is no need for special orders at all, all officers and soldiers are holding sabers in their right hands, and a long-handled grenade is secretly clasped in their left hand, and with He Min's order, the Qing cavalry in the charge raised their hands almost at the same time, and thousands of grenades flew towards the Cossack cavalry brigade like a torrential rain.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The Cossack cavalry had suffered a big loss from the grenade rain of the Qing army in the previous attack, and at this time they saw so many grenades smashed all over the world, and it was a big mess, but at this time the horse speed has been put to the extreme, it is really difficult to make adjustments in time, so they can only resign themselves to rushing forward, trying to rush through the explosion range of the grenade by relying on the speed of the horse, it is obvious, although this idea is good, but it is just a luxury, except for the first two hundred or so horsemen to achieve such a goal, The Cossack cavalry who followed behind were all poured blood mold, with the violent explosion of the grenade, countless shrapnel swept the middle of the Cossack cavalry charge formation into a mess, the smoke of gunpowder billowed up, the stumps and broken arms flew around, the broken flesh was splashed, more than 500 horsemen were blown up on the spot, and the cavalry who followed did not end well.

"Follow me and kill it!"

The explosion did not stop, and He Min had already led his troops to kill, and with a roar, he had already led his troops into the vanguard of more than 200 Cossack cavalry who had fortunately escaped the grenade attack.

The Cossacks are a people on horseback, perennial for the Russian Empire to fight around, immediately able to endure is quite good, in terms of personal equestrianism, not under the Qing army, but also tall and long, the crotch of the war horse is obviously larger than the Qing army, if it is a one-on-one individual competition, the Qing cavalry does not necessarily really take advantage of how much, or even the possibility of losing is higher, but in such a large-scale war, the comparison is not only personal force, but a comprehensive competition in all aspects, obviously, Whether in terms of morale or the situation of the charge, the Qing army occupied an absolute advantage, only a face-to-face hedge, more than 200 Cossack cavalry forwards were annihilated, and the Qing army only paid more than 20 cavalry casualties......
