Chapter 252: Cavalry VS Tank
The shock of the scene not only shocked all the Cossack cavalry, causing the Cossack cavalry to fall into a short period of confusion and silence, but also deeply shocked the entire Russian infantry who saw this scene. What kind of weapon is this? How can he have such a sharp ability to crush the cavalry effortlessly and continue to move forward without any interference?
Looking at the puddles of mud and blood left on the ground, the Russian infantry secretly shivered in their hearts, it was terrible! It's horrible!
This scene of violence and bloodshed was indeed a little too bloody for others, but for the Cossack cavalry, it was very different. Men who grew up on horseback and were born for war, every war they experienced, left a deep impression on the enemy.
Crazy, cold-blooded, fierce, brave and good at fighting, these terms are not just used by them to praise themselves, but they use their own actions to make the enemy shout out in the bloody battles. Any kind of honor, you will never give yourself the pleasure of the enemy.
The Cossack cavalry can be said to be the most ferocious and combat-capable cavalry unit of this era. The Cossack cavalry in history, if it weren't for their backward combat concept, after knowing that there were a large number of machine guns on the side of the army, they still rushed forward without scruples, against a powerful firepower network, and risked their lives.
In the end, it was still because of the defeat of the machine guns of the Japanese army, and the 72 cavalry companies in the Russian war were put to rest. Although this war dealt the most severe blow to the Cossack cavalry, it did not affect their future in the slightest. After decades of hard work, the Second World War period was clear. During the famous Battle of Stalingrad during World War II, the Cossack cavalry established one great achievement after another.
And Hitler, who was known as the war maniac, also had a soft spot for the Cossack cavalry. Good people are always good, as long as they dare to resist, then one day they will succeed, and the Cossacks always remember their beliefs.
Beginning in the 13th century, some Slavs fled the rule of the Kipchak Khanate in the Mongol Empire to southern Russia, including the Don Valley, the lower Dnieper River, and the Volga River basin. In the 15th and 16th centuries, some Russian and Ukrainian peasants who did not want to become serfs migrated to southern Russia after the overthrow of the Kipchak Khanate. These people were called 'Cossacks', that is, "free people" in Turkic. The Cossacks established a number of local regimes in Ongo.
It would obviously be very difficult for Wang Lin to subdue the Cossacks and become his own northern power, as the history of the Cossacks alone shows that they had allowed the Mongols to drive them out of their homeland centuries ago.
Although the Mongols do not belong to the same ethnic group as the Chinese Empire, foreigners do not seem to care about these trivial matters, they only know that the Mongol Empire was also an ancestor of the Chinese Empire for hundreds of years, no matter what the name of the country you built, as long as you are in this land, then they will have an inexplicable hatred for you, the Cossacks, and the Europeans. The Yellow Peril theory came from the period of the Mongol Empire, so much so that to this day, there are still some people with big faces and thick butts shouting something and something like a threat.
In fact, it is because they were scared of being beaten, and it took them hundreds of years to turn over and become masters, so they naturally had to make every effort to control the development of China, otherwise when they got up, there would be another Eurasian massacre, and this would not be enough?
Wang Lingfeng has been a veteran for six years, and now he is twenty-five years old, but he is still single, and his parents and villagers don't know how many girls he said, but they are always prevaricated by Wang Lingfeng's words. Although his family knew that Wang Lingfeng was a soldier, they didn't know anything about his specific position and what his military class was.
Even sometimes when visiting relatives and returning home, his parents would ask him about his military class worriedly, and he would laugh and laugh indiscriminately, at that time, the armored forces were still absolutely secret, and no one was allowed to divulge any secrets about the armored forces.
Therefore, Wang Lin did not hesitate to formulate a set of extremely strict leave rules, only after three years in the armored unit, in the fourth year, he was allowed to go home to visit his relatives for 20 days, and he was accompanied by the military police throughout the journey. From this, we can see how much Wang Lin attached importance to the armored forces at that time.
After this battle, the armored forces will no longer be classified as secrets, and the extremely strict rules of the past will no longer exist, and after this war, the 56th Division will be the same as the rest of the troops, except for a small number of the same as the 95th Division. At least when he goes home in the future, he can proudly tell his parents that he is an armored soldier.
"Turn right!" Wang Lingfeng saw his current position through the observation hole, only three or four hundred meters away from the armored echelon in front, and three or four hundred meters away from the Cossack cavalry behind him. The head is calmly commanding, he is the head of this tank, but also the soul of this tank, one of his mistakes is likely to cause the failure of the whole group, and even lose his surname.
It is said how heroic the Cossacks were, and now when I see them, it is nothing more than that. After staying by their side for so long, and letting them watch for so long, they crushed several of their fighters, and just ran out of a distance of several hundred meters, and the rest of the Cossack cavalry only then remembered to chase, and at this time, is it still useful to chase?
Wang Lingfeng commanded his own tank, and he was also a very experienced commander, although he only had the rank of sergeant on his shoulder, but that's it, Wang Lingfeng became the commander of these five tanks. Of course, inside these five tanks, there is also the presence of a second lieutenant officer.
Wang Lingfeng knew that this was the intention of his superiors to promote him in order to test him, so he would put the power in his own hands on the battlefield, if he got their approval, then he would be able to get promoted, if he was denied, he would lose this opportunity to be promoted.
In order to be able to play his best level, Wang Lingfeng decided to take a gamble and block his future and fate. In the same way, there is some conscience of its own. Because he found a very bad situation, there are still a lot of wounded soldiers on the battlefield, if they really retreat to a thousand meters, more wounded soldiers will die under the horse's hooves.
Wang Lingfeng's tank is the command center, his tank turns, other tanks must also follow and turn, team spirit, this is a sentence that Long Yuhui often mentions, and it is also the most heard sentence by the armored soldiers, they will never abandon their comrades under unknown circumstances and retreat alone, even if this is the previous plan, it doesn't matter.
"What's going on? What is Wang Lingfeng doing? Li Zhiyi, who was hundreds of meters away, saw five tanks suddenly turn through the observation hole, ready to meet the enemy, and hurriedly spoke out in confusion. Immediately, as if he had seen something, Li Zhiyi smiled and nodded, it turned out that he had ignored this, but he was more sure of Wang Lingfeng's ability and mind in his heart. Continue to open your mouth and order: "Forward!" ”
Seeing that the rear tank echelon began to move forward, Wang Lingfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, although he violated the military order, but if he washed his thoughts, they had no way to convict themselves. Judging from the performance of the deputy division commander, so quickly, he ordered the whole army to advance at the first time Wang Lingfeng turned around, which was undoubtedly telling Wang Lingfeng that the troops behind would fully cooperate with them.
"Five yards of speed, free fire!" Wang Lingfeng smiled, there were a few wounded soldiers next to him, and judging from the situation at the scene, his position was the dividing line of the wounded soldiers, and behind him, there were more wounded soldiers, and in front of him were killed in addition to serious injuries. Stand still and shoot, and when the enemy rushes over, the wounded soldiers will still be killed. Anyway, if you charge each other with them, your own loss is not big, so why not do it?
'All of them! All! The fire dragon fired five consecutive two-point shots, which seemed to be an agreed signal.
'All of them! Immediately afterward, four three shots came together, which meant that they had understood what the commander meant. It seems to be troublesome, but in fact it doesn't take much time, and it can kill and injure enemies at the same time, killing two birds with one stone.
'Boom! ’
'Squeak! Squeak! After a cannon shot, the five tanks began to advance slowly at a speed of five yards, and the friction between the tracks and gears of the tanks made a series of squeaks, and the friction of steel always made people feel a little awkward.
The five tanks were like no man's land, 37 guns, fire dragons hit the enemy at will, the gunner stuffed one shell after another into the barrel, and then one by one the shells were withdrawn from the barrel, and replaced with another new shell, and so on.
The Heavy is more like entering a paradise on earth, the original recoil is not very large, and after a little fixation, the recoil is even more pitiful. The Heavy held on to the trigger as if he were in the spring, and a chain of bullets was tilted in an instant. Full of enemies, when will you not be crazy at this time? When the tank in the back comes up, how can I have a chance to be so refreshing?
Wang Lingfeng was also happy to see such a scene, lying in front of the observation port, the Cossack cavalry fell one by one, the men and horses turned the sky, and the cavalry who had no time to dodge behind them stumbled to the ground one by one, and the war horses let out a painful scream. The entire Cossack cavalry team, like a wheat harvest, fell in an instant, and often the machine gunners only needed to keep the muzzle of their guns on a horizontal line, hold on to the trigger, and when the bullet chain was finished, even if they closed their eyes, they would definitely be able to kill more than ten enemies.
With such a dense cavalry formation, even if you have a war horse as a meat shield, you can't play like this, how many horses do you have enough for machine gun shooting?
Slaughter, naked slaughter!
