Chapter 61: Under the Sunset

The marksmanship of the Russian horse team was excellent, and almost one out of three shots was fired.

Although the caravan had wagons and camels as cover, most of the men seemed to be only able to use guns. But needless to say, the galloping war horse is a moving target, and it is generally difficult for people without training to shoot, not to mention this group of "part-time" gunners.

Soon after the Russian horses circled the circle of defense formed by the caravan twice, a gap was opened, but the veteran caravan leader did not give the Russian horse team a chance, and immediately led the veteran to the top.

However, the Russian horse team was repeating their maneuver and made another circle, this time with two gaps in the defensive circle.

Seeing that there was no one to top the two newly opened gaps, Lao Maozi's horse team brandished snow-white sabers, and even people and horses jumped into the defensive circle, and after a burst of slashing, they came out from the other side of the defensive circle.

After only two round-trips, the caravan's defensive circle basically collapsed, and the caravan's firepower became scattered. Many of the guys are in their own positions, each fighting their own way, and of course they die faster like this.

In just ten minutes, there were no more than half of the caravan of more than 300 people left. Some smart people have already started grabbing horses, ready to run away when they see an opportunity. Everyone knows that this caravan is over, and now the question is how many people can run out!

But the battlefield is ever-changing! Thinking about the Three Kingdoms period, even the handsome Zhuge couldn't fully grasp the battlefield situation, even if it was pushed back a thousand or hundreds of years, how could these caravan guys speculate!

At this time, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves came from the east side of the ancient road, and it was the sound of horses' hooves that could only be made by a large group of horses. Zhao Yun has never seen the scene of thousands of horses galloping, but now the sound of the hooves of 1,280 horses stepping on the grassland is like a thousand people hitting the reels in the 08 Olympic Games, and the roar is rumbling.

All kinds of war horses quickly carried their knights from behind the hillside, and instantly covered the entire hillside, and Zhao Yun's cavalry appeared!

The people of the caravan were in despair, but the Russian horses gathered their ranks!

200 vs. 1280, to fight or not to fight? As the leader of the Russian horse team, Kudryash flashed the question.

In May 1921, the time had entered the twentieth century, and the steel monster of tanks and the historical arms of cavalry began to appear in the armaments of European countries, and they had begun to slowly introduce the dominant position on the battlefield.

Although there were still many countries equipped with cavalry units in this era, even more than a decade later in World War II, there were still Polish cavalry and the famous Soviet Cossack cavalry who were ready to cut tanks with sabers.

However, the Cossack cavalry, which was once the most relied on by the imperial family in Tsarist Russia, did not belong to the Soviet Union, and they were directly under the command of the Russian crown prince. He has made great achievements for the Tsar in countless wars.

For the newly established Soviet state, the Cossacks followed the royalists in the northern and southern conquests, inflicting heavy losses on the newborn Soviet state. So much so that the leaders of Soviet Russia had to list this brave and martial and freedom-seeking nation as their greatest enemy, and they wanted to kill it as soon as possible. Therefore, cavalry is also very important in the Soviet army, because the one who can deal with cavalry in this era must also be cavalry, unless it is like the Polish cavalry to cut tanks.

Kudryash was not a Cossack, his father was a major general in the Far East, and he himself came to Outer Mongolia this time to "gild".

He led a reconnaissance company in a military-level unit.

On February 11, 1921, during the Soviet-Russian Civil War, the White Bandits of Engen's army colluded with the upper princes of Outer Mongolia to attack Kulen with the support of the Japanese Kwantung Army. The Huaxia garrison withdrew from Kulen, some of them returned to the interior, and some of them moved to the city of Bumaicheng under the leadership of Gao Zaitian, preparing for another battle. On March 18, the Mongol People's Party troops, with the support of the Russian army, captured the city and drove away the Chinese garrison. As China was on the eve of the First Zhifeng War, the warlords of all factions had no time to separate, so they had to sit back and watch the Mongols become independent with the help of Soviet Russia. Soviet Russian troops were then invited to enter Outer Mongolia on May 25 with the support of the Mongolian People's Party troops.

And the team led by Kudryash had already sneaked within four hundred miles of Kulen around the 20th, in the name of it, to reconnoiter the terrain of Kulen.

But today it was the twenty-sixth, and he crossed Cullen and headed south.

Today, after seeing this caravan, Kudryash remembered the caravan he grabbed last time, all of them were yellow-skinned guys, and there were a lot of good things in their hands. Just that cart full of black tea made those uncles and uncles in the Far Eastern army happy! With their acquiescence, Kudryash, the little guy with the little brown curly hair in their eyes, began to plunder again.

It is precisely the soldiers who have received the sweetness that will follow Kudryash so recklessly, and it is precisely because of the shared interests that the soldiers will shout "Ula" with high morale and launch a charge.

But today's events don't seem to be going well, looking at the cavalry contingent that appeared on the small hillside, Kudryash had an indescribable feeling in his heart, weird! Be quiet! Yes is quiet, too quiet, not a single person to speak, no shouting, no orders, only action.

All kinds of war horses carried their knights quickly, and without even saying a word, they rushed directly to their cavalry team.

Judging from the clothing of the other party, the first to attack was the Mongolian cavalry archers, divided into two teams, directly to the two wings, and fired arrows at this group of Soviet and Russian horse teams with the most authentic Mongolian cavalry.

Mongolian horse archer, black horse, black clothes embroidered with red patterns, and a large black cloak on the back, as if extending from the hillside of the sky surging dark clouds, stepping on a uniform horse step, the sound is terrifying.

Mongolian cavalry archers are also a kind of archers, horse speed, rate of fire are similar to archers, but the range is much farther, and the archers can only attack objects within 60 degrees in front of them, while Mongolian cavalry archers can attack in all directions, 360 degrees, can practice sports warfare, while running and fighting back, commonly known as "flying kites".

In fact, in terms of troops, this Lao Maozi's horse team belongs to the reconnaissance force, which is mainly based on cavalry shooting, supplemented by sabers, and Lao Maozi's main cavalry is different.

"Damn Mongols, I'm going to show you the power of the Russian cavalry!" As soon as Kudryash saw that the other party had attacked him, it must be the Mongol rebels, and the military merit he longed for finally came.

Originally, Kudryash was also afraid in his heart, the enemy on the opposite side was six times his own, but after seeing their weapons, Kudryash smiled, what age, still using bows and arrows, and shooting at such a fast speed, they didn't need to shoot a few rounds and they were bored.

"Rush! For Moscow! For the sake of honor! Ulla! Kudryash grabbed his legs and rushed out first, followed closely by the guards around him.

In the Cold Weapon Era, the main weapon of a Mongol cavalry was a strong bow and two quivers filled with arrows (60~80 arrows), plus a saber. The strong bow is a composite bow made of and wood wrapped with cow tendon, which is about fifty meters farther than the English longbow made of fir and farther than the steel composite bow used in modern times, and can shoot four or five hundred meters as long as you have the strength!

Of course, the biggest problem is that such powerful and distant arrows cannot be shot by the average adult man.

Therefore, after avoiding the bows and arrows of the Mongol cavalry archers in the first few rounds, Kudryash closed the distance and opened fire, and it was difficult for the carbine of this era to hit the opponent at a distance of four hundred meters, and of course it was possible to meet with luck.

But after closing the distance today, the opponent's bow and arrow are still so accurate, so strong, and the rate of fire is still so fast!

"Bang!" Someone takes the lead in shooting, whether they hit or not, it's better than being beaten all the time.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" The entire team of horses fired intermittently. The Mongol archers who were charging ahead were shot several times, and the three or four Mongol archers in the first row were aimed at by five or six guns, shot, and fell straight down.

Of course, the Russian cavalry had fallen nearly ten in the process of rushing over, and a dozen more were with feathered arrows stuck in their bodies.

Finally rushed into the effective distance of two hundred meters of the horse gun, but Zhao Yun's cavalry team was not only Mongolian cavalry archers, as soon as the other party approached the Mongolian cavalry archers, they immediately moved to both sides, shooting while running, revealing the elite submachine lancers behind the team, seeing that the clothing of the team behind and the front charge team was very different, Kudryash knew that it was not good, shouted "lie down" in Russian, and took the lead to lie on the back of the horse.

A burst of gunfire rang out, and 160 elite submachine lancers lined up in two rows swept the opponent with similar numbers directly under the horse.

This time, the Soviets did not shout "Ula", like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, they fell and dismounted.

There were more than a dozen Soviet cavalrymen who ran at the end, and when they saw that the situation was wrong, they immediately turned their horses and scattered in all directions, and they must go back to report today's incident, and if they were all handed over to the army behind here, they would not know the situation here.

But if you want to run, you have to ask, Zhao Yun's wind cavalry! You think they're here to make soy sauce!

The surroundings have long been blocked, and within five minutes they have all caught up with their respective targets, although they have been shot a few times by the Soviet and Russian horse teams, but they are all fine, think about who can hit the moving target so accurately at a high speed of 100 yards. And who has run 100 yards at high speed? So ten minutes later, these Soviet Russian cavalry scurrying around were all brought back.

This time, even the Hun cavalry and paladins under Zhao Yun didn't play, and the other party was stupid.

At sunset, the battle came to an end hastily.

This time, more than 200 horses were obtained, and as long as it was not for the monks of the medical team who were shot to death, they could be cured. Nearly 100 of the captives were captured, and the rest were killed. Fortunately, when the team was first discovered, a team of monks followed.

The Russian cavalry captured in this battle began to chatter "persuasion", and soon the weak-willed ones were successfully "persuaded" and told the information that Zhao Yun had come up with.

Some of the people in this team are status people, such as the children of high-ranking officials and guards of the Soviet Russian army.

Kudryash was taken care of, and now he is a leader of the internal response. Tonight they will be released, and under his leadership, the team will go to the camp to pick up some spies trained by the dead Russian cavalry and return to the Russian army.

This time, twelve cavalry on Zhao Yun's side also died, and the other wounded monks were there, which was not a big problem.

There were only fifty or sixty people left in the caravan over there, and some of them rode on their horses and ran away when Zhao Yun and Lao Maozi's cavalry were fighting. Now seeing that Zhao Yun and they have won, the caravan still maintains full vigilance, who knows if these people are bandits!

It wasn't until he watched the procession disappear from behind the hillside with loot and prisoners that the caravan's shopkeeper Liu breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm so lucky today, if it weren't for this team, I would have all the people here. But there were too many dead and wounded guys, and I didn't know how to explain when I went back.

Silently remembered this black cavalry.

Zhao Yun's cavalry made its first appearance on the steppe and returned with a complete victory. (Kudryash: Nonsense, you hit people with six times more force, and you sweep with submachine guns, can you not win?) It's so shameless! There's a kind of heads-up)
