After the 15th Cavalry Division of the Russian Army arrived in Shengjing City, all the cavalry companies under the 14th Army and the 17th Army of the Imperial Army withdrew to the city to avoid unnecessary losses. Although the Imperial Army did not have a large formed cavalry unit, in order to ensure reconnaissance, each infantry brigade had a cavalry company with a total strength of 150 men. The cavalry of each army added up to exactly seven hundred and fifty men.

Of course, even the cavalry units of the 14th and 17th armies combined were only 1,500 men. I only want a quarter of a cavalry division of the Russian army. If in its heyday, all the cavalry of the two armies of the Imperial Army combined, it was no match for one cavalry division of the Russian army. But now? The situation is completely different. The 15th Cavalry Division of the Russian Army, there are only more than 2,000 people left. And many of them are wounded, and they have just suffered defeat and are scared. In such a situation, their combat power will naturally be greatly reduced. In addition, the cavalry of the Imperial Army, equipped with weapons such as cavalry guns, heavy machine guns and mortars, etc., is much more powerful than the Russian Cossack cavalry equipped with only sabers. With 1,500 Imperial cavalry and 2,000 Russian Cossack cavalry, the Imperial cavalry undoubtedly had a great advantage.

Major General Kang Rui, commander of the 14th Army of the Imperial Army, suddenly lit up after listening to the construction of Major General Chen Wenjie, commander of the 17th Army. This seems like a good way to go. With the cavalry of the two armies united, an attack was launched against the remnants of the 15th Cavalry Division of the Russian Army. There is a great chance of a final victory. Of course, the prerequisite is that the main forces of the Russian army will not arrive in time. If the 15th Cavalry Division of the Russian Army can be completely annihilated, it will be for the upcoming main forces of the Russian army. It was undoubtedly a heavy blow, and it was also more conducive to improving the morale of the troops. After all, after the arrival of the main forces of the Russian army, the 14th and 17th armies of the Imperial Army are likely to fall into a long-term encirclement. In this case, it became necessary to keep the morale of the Imperial Army high.

"Good. Lao Chen, just do what you say! Let our cavalry attack and completely annihilate the 15th Cavalry Division of the Russian Army! "Major General Kang Rui's mention of Major General Chen Wenjie. Agreed. The more enemies are destroyed, the greater the results and the greater their exploits.

"Haha! Okay, that's it. Come. Go and inform the cavalry companies at once. It was necessary to get out of the city within ten minutes and destroy the remnants of the 15th Cavalry Division of the Russian army. Major General Chen Wenjie, commander of the 17th Army, ordered. The systematic elimination of a cavalry division of the Russian army is definitely the first time since the formation of the Imperial Army, and it will also completely break the myth of the invincibility of the Cossack cavalry. Perfecting the victory of the 14th and 17th armies of the Imperial Army.

The cavalry of the 14th and 17th armies of the Imperial Army urgently assembled, and when they learned that they were going to leave the city and destroy the remnants of the Russian 15th Cavalry Division, the Imperial cavalry burst into earth-shattering cheers. Previously the Russian cavalry was in front of the strong lines of the Imperial Army. The head was bled and the losses were heavy. This greatly stimulated the cavalry. The cavalry of the empire also did not want to only undertake auxiliary combat tasks such as reconnaissance, they also hoped to be the main force on the battlefield one day. It's just that, due to the fact that the current number of war horses in the empire is too small, and the training of cavalry is not easy, the imperial army has not yet built cavalry on a large scale. This kind of battle, in which thousands of cavalry and enemy cavalry were duel, was not so common. This made the cavalry of the empire very cherished.

In just ten minutes, more than 1,500 cavalrymen of the 14th and 17th armies of the Imperial Army were assembled. They exited the city from the west gate of Shengjing City, and then began to launch a pursuit of the remnants of the Russian 15th Cavalry Division. There are still two hours to go, and it will be dark. They needed to wipe out the remnants of the Russian 15th Cavalry Division before dark. Otherwise, the Russian army is likely to escape by taking advantage of the darkness of the night, and even unite the main forces of the Russian army to give the Imperial cavalry a head-on attack. The order of Major General Chen Wenjie, commander of the 17th Army of the Imperial Army, was very clear, after dark, the cavalry of the Empire must withdraw to Shengjing City. It is precisely because of the scarcity of cavalry that the cavalry of the empire is even more precious.

More than 1,500 cavalrymen, riding their horses and galloping, pursued the retreating Russian army, wanting to fall into the well on these Russian cavalry who had already suffered a heavy defeat, and then give them a knife to completely eliminate them.

At this moment, the 15th Cavalry Division of the Russian Army, which had been heavily damaged, was slowly retreating. There were more than 6,000 people in the division, and only more than 2,000 remained. With such heavy losses, the morale of the entire cavalry division fell into a trough. Especially those Russian cavalry who finally withdrew from the battlefield, they were even more apprehensive about the battle they had just experienced. The powerful firepower of the Imperial Army has caused a great shock to them, and now they have a shadow in their hearts. Although, the Cossack cavalry was heroic, but in such an apparently death-defying battle, they were terrified.

Major General Alekyev was also depressed, and he was thinking about how he would explain to Lieutenant General Igdinev after seeing him? Or how to shirk responsibility. The crushing defeat of the 15th Cavalry Division will surely fury Lieutenant General Igdinaev. And what kind of fate Major Alekev will have is conceivable. The most optimistic future is to be dismissed from his post and sent back to Russia. If you don't do it well, you will be cut off your head. After all, this time the march on Shengjing City, he was not authorized by Lieutenant General Igdinaev. In other words, it was his own actions. Lieutenant General Igdinev had every reason to give Major General Alekyev the most severe punishment.

"General! Those yellow-skinned monkeys came after them, all of them were cavalry, and there were thousands of them! At this time, a Russian officer in charge of leading the rear of the palace reported to Major General Alekev.

"What? The Chinese are chasing? Run! Some frightened Russian cavalrymen said in horror.

Major General Alekyev was also taken aback. The Imperial cavalry actually dared to chase after him, which was beyond his expectations. Originally, he believed that the Imperial Army had only defeated him by relying on strong weapons and fortifications. Even after winning the battle, they had to retreat into the city. After all, the main forces of the Russian army are coming. Unexpectedly, the Chinese Empire would actually gather cavalry to pursue. Their poor cavalry could not be compared with the Russian cavalry at all. Major General Alekev believes that the cavalry of the Chinese Empire is not at the same level at all compared with the Russian cavalry, both in terms of strength and combat strength.

"Retreat or fight with the Chinese again?" Major General Alekyev was somewhat undecided. The 15th Cavalry Division had only more than 2,000 cavalry left, and with heavy losses and low morale, it was afraid that it would not be able to exert its due combat effectiveness. However, if the wolf retreats like this, he will not be able to explain to Lieutenant General Igdinaev at all! If he could defeat the pursuit of the Chinese cavalry, or if he could win, he might be able to mitigate his mistakes. If we think about it, it is not impossible to keep my current position.

After a little hesitation, Major General Alekev made a decision, and for the sake of his future, he planned to fight again. He believed that with the strength of the Cossack cavalry, there should be no big problem in defeating the pursuing Chinese cavalry. Besides, in terms of strength, the 15th Cossack Cavalry Division also had a considerable advantage.

"Heroic Cossack cavalrymen, look at you now, are you afraid? Are you still great Cossack cavalrymen? Although, I do not deny, just now we suffered a terrible defeat. However, the main reason for our defeat was because the yellow-skinned monkeys used powerful weapons. If they use the same weapons as us, the one who will win in the end will definitely be ours! The valiant Cossack cavalry can easily kick the eggs of those yellow-skinned monkeys! Major General Alekev said loudly.

"Haha!" Some of the Cossack cavalrymen laughed, and even the shadows in the hearts of the defeated Cossack cavalry faded a lot.

"Now, there's a chance for everyone to regain their glory. Those damn yellow-skinned monkeys, they don't stay in Shengjing City, they dare to go out of the city to pursue us, this is simply trying to annihilate us all! However, what I would like to tell them is that they are simply looking for death. In a decisive cavalry battle on the plain, the Cossack cavalry is a worthy king, and those yellow-skinned monkeys are not our opponents at all. Brave Cossack cavalrymen, raise your sabers and wash away your shame with the blood of those yellow-skinned monkeys! Major General Alekev said loudly. With his encouragement, the morale of the Cossack cavalry was finally raised again.

"Ulla! Ulla! ”

"Now I order, the fighters of the 15th Cossack Cavalry Division, charge! Destroy those damn yellow-skinned monkeys! Major General Alekev ordered.

The remaining 2,000 cavalrymen of the 15th Cossack Cavalry Division of the Russian army began to turn their horses' heads. Instead of retreating, they met the pursuing Chinese cavalry. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the sabers they wielded in their hands, shining with a golden glow.

"Boom!" The two cavalry began to approach at high speed, and they would face off in a duel to the west of Shengjing City. Although this was only a small-scale cavalry duel of several thousand people, for the Chinese Empire and Russia, this was the first time that the cavalry of the two countries had engaged in a dignified fierce battle!
