The 15th Cossack Cavalry Division of the Russian Army, led by the division commander, Major General Alekev, is ready to make the final struggle. The last two thousand Cossack cavalry began to charge at the more than 1,000 Chinese cavalry who pursued them. During the attack on the 14th Brigade of the Imperial Army, the 15th Cossack Cavalry Division of the Russian Army suffered heavy losses, with two-thirds of the division's casualties. For this defeat, Major General Alekyev can also attribute the reason to the fact that the weapons of the Imperial Chinese Army were too powerful. This time, the two sides had a cavalry duel, and Major General Alekev believed that the victory would definitely belong to the Cossack cavalry! The two sides engaged in a cavalry duel, which was the strong point of the Cossack cavalry. For two hundred years, they have never lost.

The distance between the two sides is gradually narrowing, and on the vast plain west of Shengjing City, a cavalry duel is about to begin. Major General Alekeyev wanted a victory to cover up his last defeat and give himself a chance to atone for his crimes. The Chinese cavalry hoped to further expand the results of the battle and annihilate the 15th Cavalry Division of the Russian army. At the same time, it also shows that not only the infantry of the Chinese Imperial Army was able to defeat the Russian Cossack cavalry, but the Chinese cavalry was also able to defeat the Cossack cavalry lightly.

When the distance between the two sides was shortened to almost two kilometers, Captain Song Xinchu, the commander of the cavalry company of the 14th Brigade of the Imperial Army, who was temporarily in charge of commanding this cavalry duel, raised his hand. Suddenly, the Chinese cavalry grabbed the reins in their hands, and the high-speed horses gradually stopped.

"Haha! Those Chinese cavalry were really rookies. They actually stopped charging? Are they scared stupid? Brave Cossack cavalry, teach those yellow-skinned monkey cavalry how to fight! Major General Alekev, who was watching the battle in the rear, shouted. around him. There were only a few dozen guards and senior officers left, and the rest had all been sent to attack. After all, a full thousand of the remaining two thousand Cossack cavalry had experienced the defeat of the last time, and although they were temporarily inspired to be courageous, what would happen to them on the battlefield. Major General Alekev also did not dare to guarantee it. Therefore, he can only send all his forces out and make a desperate bet.

Originally. Major General Alekyev was also worried that he would not be able to win. But now, the abnormal appearance of the Chinese cavalry made him feel at ease. In his opinion, it was the Chinese cavalry who were afraid. Timid. Cavalry engaged. The momentum to move forward is very important. Only in this way can you maximize your strength with the help of the high-speed sprint of the war horse, so as to hit the enemy fiercely. The Chinese cavalry actually stopped advancing, isn't this looking for death?

Were the Chinese cavalry really stupid by the Cossack cavalry? The answer is no. Although the Chinese cavalry had not engaged in large-scale cavalry engagements with the enemy's cavalry before this. However, according to their own characteristics, they also summed up a set of cavalry tactics that met their own conditions. The remnants of the 15th Cossack Cavalry Division of the Russian Army were honored to be the first to try this new tactic.

"Raise your gun!" Captain Song Xinchu shouted loudly. More than 1,500 Chinese cavalry. They all aimed their horse pistols at the Cossack cavalry approaching at high speed. Unlike the Cossack cavalry, armed only with sabers. The Chinese cavalry was also armed with horse pistols. Their carbine was an improved version of the Chinese rifle, with a shorter body. The range is also slightly closer. However, it is more suitable for cavalry on horseback.

"Fire!" When the Cossack cavalry was less than three hundred meters away from the Chinese cavalry, Captain Song Xinchu gave the order to open fire.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! "The carbines in the hands of the Chinese cavalrymen rang out, and rows of bullets were fired at the Cossack cavalry. The Cossack cavalrymen, who looked hideous and brandished their sabers, were shot and fell to the ground. Especially those cavalrymen who rushed to the front, some of them were even shot dozens of times. The charge of the 15th Cossack cavalry of the Russian army seemed to have been deeply stopped. After the comrades in front were shot by the Chinese cavalry, the Cossack cavalry in the rear were suddenly shocked. Especially the Cossack cavalrymen, who had experienced the last battle, had a hint of panic on their faces.

"Bang! Bang! "The shooting of the Chinese cavalry continued, and in the magazines of each carbine, five bullets could be accommodated. They will shoot these bullets in the shortest possible time. For a well-trained soldier, it only takes ten seconds to drain the five bullets in the magazine. After firing their bullets, the cavalrymen inserted their pistols back into their holsters in front of their saddles and drew their sabers in a cold light. In the afterglow of the setting sun, these sabers shone with a golden light. The sabers of the Chinese cavalry were made of stainless steel. The industrialized production of zuò made these sabers appear very rough, not as sophisticated as the Cossack swords, but in terms of sharpness and hardness, they were no worse than the Cossack sabers.

"Charge!" At this time, Captain Song Xinchu ordered the Chinese cavalry to start charging.

"Rush! Kill all those old hairy people! "The Chinese cavalry, shouting slogans, began to charge the Russian Cossack cavalry.

Compared to the Chinese cavalry, which had a rainbow of morale, the Russian Cossack cavalry was different. In the previous firing of the Chinese cavalry, the 15th Cossack Cavalry Division of the Russian Army paid a heavy price. Five rounds of fire from the Chinese cavalry killed a total of seven or eight hundred Russian Cossack cavalry. Moreover, the morale of the Cossack cavalry plummeted. In particular, the Cossack cavalry, who had already suffered heavy losses, was even more frightened, and many of them involuntarily grabbed the reins, turned their horses' heads and fled. In order to be able to exert the maximum combat strength, Major General Alekeyev placed a thousand Cossack cavalry who did not participate in the last battle at the front, and the remnants of the 1,000 soldiers at the rear. After those Cossack cavalry in front suffered heavy losses and heavy losses. The Cossack cavalry in the rear not only failed to continue the attack, but instead broke and fled.

"Kill!" In the midst of the shouts of killing, the two cavalry collided together. The high-speed charge of the war horses gave the cavalry a lot of strength. The saber in their hand is light enough to split a person in half.

"Die!" The saber in Captain Song Xinchu's hand slashed at a Russian cavalryman, and his head was cut off lightly.

Because the 15th Cossack Cavalry Division of the Russian Army had already been defeated when the Chinese cavalry charged, and the Cossack cavalry that really resisted was only a few hundred. The rest of the people were frightened and fled ahead of time. Therefore, the resistance of the Russian army was very weak, and they fell into the siege of the Chinese cavalry. Although these Cossack cavalry were valiant, their fate was doomed when they were completely unsuperior in strength and combat power.

"Bastard! Damn the yellow-skinned monkeys, they're just too insidious. In the battle of cavalry, they still use rifles, they don't deserve to be called cavalry at all, they are completely infantry on horseback! "The moment the shots rang out, Major General Alekev's face changed drastically. Watching those Cossack cavalry constantly fall to the ground in the fire of the Chinese cavalry, he even scolded him. This is completely different from the cavalry duel he imagined. The Chinese cavalry is still using rifles against the Cossack cavalry, isn't this cheating?

Then, when the frightened Cossack cavalry began to rout, Major General Alekev was even more desperate. He knew that this time, he had lost completely. The final counterattack was also unsuccessful, but caused the Russian 15th Cossack Cavalry Division to pay even heavier losses.

"General, the Chinese cavalry has already gained the upper hand, let's retreat quickly! Otherwise, we won't be able to run away when the Chinese cavalry catches us. Colonel Mikhail said.

"No, I am a brave Cossack cavalryman, I will definitely not run away. That's the act of a coward! Major General Alekev yelled loudly. For this defeat, Major General Alecyev was very unwilling. In his opinion, the army of the Chinese Empire, whether it was cavalry or infantry, would only rely on the superiority of weapons to fight, and it was simply a coward. The Chinese cavalry, in particular, is not an orthodox cavalry at all. He was very aggrieved and thought that the Chinese cavalry was completely cheating. Otherwise, victory would have definitely belonged to the Cossack cavalry.

However, the purpose of war is, after all, to defeat the enemy. No matter what way you go, as long as you get the final victory, you are the winner! There is no such thing as meanness or justice in tactics.

The Chinese cavalry quickly wiped out the Cossack cavalry that resisted, and then pursued the fleeing Cossack cavalry. Some of the skilled cavalrymen began to reload their pistols in the process, and then used their pistols to destroy the fleeing Cossack cavalry.

The 15th Cossack Cavalry Division of the Russian Army was a complete defeat. Of those Cossack cavalrymen who fled, only a very small number fled. Although the Mongolian horse is not as tall as the Don hippopotamus, its endurance is very good, and it is not worse than the Don hippopotamus at all. In addition, most of the war horses of the Cossack cavalry have been running for a long time, and they can no longer be compared with the Chinese cavalry in terms of body. So a lot of them were caught up and then gradually wiped out.

Among them, the commander of the 15th Cossack Cavalry Division of the Russian Army, Major General Alekev. Like a valiant Cossack, he charged the Chinese cavalry with his own guards, and in the end, he was greeted by a barrage of bullets. After being shot several times, Major General Alekev fell from his horse. Even if he died, he was still unwilling to fail this time. However, he can only go to God with great resentment. The Chinese cavalry, at a small cost, won this duel. (To be continued......)
