Chapter 270: Cossack cavalry
"Report~! Marshal Qiyu, the main force of the Russian cavalry was found in the front, with a strength of more than 1,000 people. "A cavalry scout Pegasus came to report.
As the saying goes, the more you are afraid of something, the more you will come. Wu Meng was still silently praying in his heart not to meet Lao Maozi, but he immediately received such a report, Wu Meng's horse face couldn't help but droop, and instantly turned into a donkey face, and his brows couldn't help but twist into a ball.
On the contrary, Ren Chao was very excited, Tsarist Russia openly sent troops to the Northeast, Ren Chao had already held back his stomach here, and he couldn't wait to find this gang of old Maozi immediately, but he didn't expect that just arrived in Jilin, Lao Maozi took the initiative to send it to the door to let Ren Chao be angry, how could Ren Chao not be excited. "Tell the whole army to prepare for battle." Ren Chao couldn't help but shout excitedly.
"Order!"
"Dashuai, there is Lao Dashuai who is in the formation of the lowly position, and he will go to kill these old hairymen before the lowly position." Wu Meng is not a person who is afraid of things, since he has already caught up, what else is there to say, just go up and beat his mother.
"Yes!" Ren Chao nodded slightly, and said with a stern face, "Wu Mengzi, I tell you, this is our first battle in Jilin, we are only allowed to win, not to lose." Go up and teach me a hard lesson to these old hairy people who don't know whether they live or die, and let them know that they know how powerful our Tiger Army is! ”
"Yes, obedience!" Wu Meng responded respectfully, and then bowed his hand to Ren Chaoyi, whipped the horse and left.
Ren Chao looked up at the nearby terrain, then raised his horsewhip and pointed to a hillside in front of him, and said loudly, "Let's go to that hillside and see with our own eyes how our Tiger Cavalry can defeat the Russian cavalry." ”
"Order!" All the guards responded in unison. Immediately, Ren Chao led a group of guards to rush up the hillside.
On the hillside, Ren Chao sat on horseback, and the cold wind in the northeast swept across his face like a knife, but at this time, Ren Chao's heart was full of enthusiasm, and he could already see the figure of the Tsarist cavalry in the distance vaguely in the distance. Ren Chao took the telescope handed over by the guards and looked into the distance.
Through the guò telescope, you can see a clearing in the distance. A group of Russian cavalry was standing there quietly on horseback. A large area of black pressing, roughly estimated to be as many as a thousand people. Thousands of war horses stood there like that, snorting and spewing out clouds of white gas. And on the horse, the Russian cavalry was seriously examining the enemy in front of them, and there was inevitably a hint of arrogance on their faces.
"Is this the famous Cossack cavalry? Doesn't look good! After Ren Chao held up the telescope and observed, he said coldly.
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 man" in Turkic. The Cossacks established a number of local regimes in Ongo. The Eastern European Plain is mountainous and less mountainous, so most of the Cossack ethnic groups are named after rivers, such as the "Don Cossacks".
The Cossacks were known for their bravery and good fighting. In the history of Russia, the cavalry composed of Cossacks was an important force in Tsarist Russia. In the era of cold weapons, the Cossack cavalry shocked Europe with its speed, mobility, lethality, and brave warfare, and European countries often recruited Cossacks as mercenaries. The Cossacks took part in all campaigns from the 18th century to the Second World War in the Soviet Union. Some say that they are the most reckless classic cavalry in the Eurasian steppe. Their cavalry hooves flew in tandem with the pace of Tsarist Russia's outward expansion, and they made great achievements in Russia's territorial expansion on many occasions.
Napoleon once said: if I had Cossack cavalry in my troops, I would sweep the world with them. They were excellent hussars. But they were undisciplined and unwilling to dismount to fight, thus limiting their performance on the battlefield. They were ruthless to the common people, to the point that the whole of Europe. Friends and foes hate them to the core.
The Cossack cavalry had been crisscrossing the Eurasian continent for hundreds of years, and it was rarely rivaled and famous, perhaps only the Mongol cavalry of Genghis Khan could compare with it. But the Mongol cavalry has long since died out in the long river of history. Today's Cossack cavalry can be called the most powerful cavalry in the world, if not one of them.
Therefore, they had every reason to be arrogant to their opponents, so when they discovered the cavalry of the Tiger Army. The Cossack cavalry did not hesitate to pounce at all, because they did not pay any attention to the enemy in front of them, who had come to give them loot and glittering medals.
These Cossack cavalrymen, with sabers on their waists and rifles on their backs, carefully observed the enemy in front of them, and they did not find anything special about these so-called yellow-skinned monkeys in their eyes, so the contempt in their hearts became even heavier. However, to the surprise of these old hairy people, these yellow-skinned monkeys did not turn around and flee for their lives after seeing the famous Cossack cavalry, it seems that they want to have a cavalry duel with them. It's a joke, can these emaciated yellow-skinned monkeys stand up to the brave Cossacks? These Cossack cavalry apparently did not think that these Tiger cavalry could hold off their iron cavalry. On the contrary, these people did not flee immediately, but the wish of these arrogant Cossack cavalrymen was fulfilled, because if they turned and ran, it would be troublesome to chase them, and it would not be better for them to come to their deaths like this.
"Prepare for battle!" Wu Meng glanced back at the cavalry behind him, and couldn't help but order loudly. Wu Meng seemed to have seen the contempt and disdain on the faces of the Cossack cavalrymen on the other side, as if the Tiger Ben cavalry was not worthy of being their opponent at all. This made Wu Meng, who had always been competitive and competitive, very angry, and the contempt of the enemy was undoubtedly the greatest insult to him, and he must make these arrogant Cossack cavalry pay the most painful price for their arrogance this time. Although he knew that he was facing the famous and prestigious Cossack cavalry this time, Wu Meng was not nervous at all, and he only had a strong fighting spirit. Wu Meng also has his own pride, in his opinion, the Tiger Army is the most powerful army in the world, and the Tiger Army cavalry is the most powerful cavalry in the world, he wants to make these Cossack cavalry in front of him become a stepping stone under his feet, and establish the glory of the Tiger Ben Army cavalry.
