Chapter 934: Fighting Ge Mountaineering (3)

Heh, Lao Maozi saw the opportunity very quickly, so he shrank and didn't move?

An easy victory, the Qing soldiers were all elated, but Hongqing did not have the slightest sense of complacency, no side, in his opinion, with the strong firepower of the Qing army, against the Russian army that rigidly acted according to the backward rules, and fought a defensive war, victory is a matter of course, it is not surprising at all, the real test is still to come, no, after waiting for a full stick of incense, there is no sign of the Three Kingdoms Alliance attacking again, Hongqing knew that the Russian army was planning to play a game of waiting for the rabbit.

"Order: The three armies pressed forward two hundred paces, Cheng Guiwu's troops pressed their positions, and Yue Zhongqi and Zhang Miao immediately launched an attack, focusing on destroying the enemy's living forces, and there was no need to rush to attack."

The fundamental purpose of Hongqing's westward expedition is to strike a blow at the arrogance of the Russian Empire, and he will not give up because of the Russian army's switch from offensive to defensive, but he does not plan to exchange the lives of his soldiers for victory.

For more than a year, the Qing army was invincible, invincible, and the morale of the army was extremely high, even if the enemy on the opposite side was more than twice as much as their own, all the Qing soldiers did not take it to heart, and the previous easily defeated the strong attack of the two divisions of the Russian army, the spirit was extremely high, and they all wanted to rush up, and quickly wiped out the enemy on the opposite side. In the sound of the horn, the officers and soldiers of the three armies moved when they heard the order, except for the reserves led by Hongqing, the Qing troops of the three routes began to move forward slowly, and pressed towards the position of the three alliance forces in unison.

"It's all steady, put the yellow-skinned monkey closer and fight again!"

"Steady, don't mess around!"

"Don't mess around, there are those who dare to act recklessly, and there is no mercy!"

……

Nearly 100,000 Qing troops pressed forward together, although the speed was not very fast, but the momentum was as majestic as a mountain, although it was still far away, but there was still a riot in the formation of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, and the great strategy in charge of leading the army, Tszevsky and others had to carry enough energy to press loudly, and only the Russian Guards First Army, which was deployed in the rear of the middle road, was still calm, and although there was a commotion, it was almost negligible.

Under the orders of commanders at all levels, the commotion of the Triple Alliance Army was quickly suppressed by bullets, and everyone was on full alert waiting for the Qing army's strong attack, rows of black holes pointed straight ahead, and hundreds of artillery pieces of all kinds were ready to fire, just waiting for the Qing army to rush forward, to come to a massacre, in order to avenge the previous defeat of the blood vengeance.

"Open the cannon and blast out that bunch of miscellaneous pieces to Lao Tzu!"

"Let's get started."

……

Although the calculation of the Three Kingdoms Alliance Army is good, it is a pity that the Qing army does not plan to go at the expected pace of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, no, after the three-way army pressed forward for two hundred meters, it stopped, and lined up on the spot again, with the placement of the artillery position, Zhang Miao and Yue Zhongqi issued an attack order almost at the same time, the difference is that Zhang Miao roared in high spirits, while Yue Zhongqi simply gave an order.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

As soon as the orders of the two commanders were so, the battle defense artillery and heavy artillery deployed in front of the two Qing armies immediately began to bombard fiercely, and the target was the artillery position in front of the Russian array, as for Cheng Guiwu's department, it still remained silent and did not attack the Dzungar army, while the Qing army's light infantry artillery on the center and left flanks did not fire, but was just ready to attack.

"Fire, shoot back, shoot back!"

The Qing armies on the two routes had a total of six heavy artillery pieces, with an effective firing range of more than 1,200 meters; 162 anti-aircraft guns, with an effective firing range of more than 800 meters; Such a frenzied bombardment, the Russian artillery position 600 meters away suddenly fell into blood mold, a cannon and the soldiers on standby on the side were all blown into pieces, only one salvo down, the two Russian artillery was destroyed more than 30 guns, the dead and wounded gunners do not know how many, as soon as they saw this, the commander of the Russian right flank, Lieutenant General Huachaivsky, and the deputy commander of the First Frontier Army in the center, Lieutenant General Pantsevsky, were all enraged, and almost at the same time issued an order to counterattack.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The general order, the Russian artillery did not dare to slack off a little, and began to counterattack according to the drill code, one after another shells roared through the sky, and smashed towards the Qing army array in the distance, and in an instant it exploded a ball of fire, countless shrapnel flew around and swept wildly, the momentum was not small, but the result of the battle, in addition to blowing up more than 100 big craters on the flat ground, even the Qing army's hair could not hurt one, there is no other, the maximum range of the Russian army's artillery is only more than 550 meters, And the artillery positions at the forefront of the Qing army's array are more than 600 meters away from the Russian army, no matter how hard the Russian artillery try, it is all in vain.

"Order: Khmelnitsky's headquarters will immediately attack, rush the enemy formation, and all departments will be ready to move, and in addition, let the Dzungar army attack and contain the enemy's right flank cluster!"

The Qing army's method of relying on the superiority of weapons is really too bullying, two rounds of artillery bombardment, the Russian artillery position is in chaos, seeing that a few more rounds like this, the Russian artillery unit is afraid that the whole army will be wiped out, Lieutenant General Tolsky can not help but be a little anxious, and his face is pale and gives two orders in succession.

"The first division will attack the enemy's left flank, and the second and third divisions will come with me, crush the enemy in front of me, and kill!"

As soon as he received the order from Lieutenant General Tolsky to attack, the commander of the 1st Cossack Corps, Khmelnitsky, did not dare to delay the slightest time, and gave the order to attack with a roar.

Cossacks (Ukrainian: Козаки; Russian: Каза?ки) is a nomadic community living in the steppes of Eastern Europe (Ukraine, southern Russia), originated in the 13th century, some Slavs fled to the southern regions of Russia in order to escape the rule of the Kipchak Khanate in the Mongol Empire, including the Don River 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 are called "Cossacks", That is, "free man" in Turkic.

The Cossacks are known for their bravery and good at war, at the beginning of the seventeenth century, the Cossacks had established a lot of small states in the Don River valley, and then because of the defeat in the war with Poland, they had to be annexed to Tsarist Russia in 1654, after decades of running-in, they were completely incorporated into the Russian Empire around 1720, in June 1722, Peter the Great ordered the Cossacks to be reorganized into ten corps, which became the sharp blade of the Russian Empire's external expansion, and the standard equipment was sabre, spear and some troops prepared arquebus, Wearing a cylindrical curly high hat on the head, wearing a black coat, from the general to the ordinary soldier is not armored, belongs to the fast mobile light cavalry troops, the crotch is a color of the Don River horses, explosive power and endurance are extremely strong, once the charge, often there is no retreat, it is the most good at assault in the Russian army, at this time, 25,000 Cossack cavalry rushed out together, the momentum is incomparably huge, rows of sabers are raised like a forest in the sun, the cold light of death flashes dazzlingly, the sound of hooves is like thunder, Murderous spirits rise into the sky!

"Artillery fire, hit me!"

More than 25,000 Cossack cavalry rushed up like this, whether it was Zhang Miao or Yue Zhongqi, they didn't dare to ignore it, and almost at the same time issued an order, even when they saw that more than 150 light infantry guns that had never been fired immediately began to cover the shooting, and after a while, the heavy artillery and the battle defense artillery also adjusted the shooting position, and constantly smashed the shells into the ranks of the Cossack cavalry who rushed wildly. In an instant, many Cossack cavalrymen and horses were beaten into sieves, but even so, they could not stop the desperate charge of the Cossack cavalry.

"All the divisions are there, shoot!"

"Fire, hit me!"

……

Seeing how the Cossack cavalry rushed bravely and wildly, Zhang Miao and Yue Zhongqi did not dare to take it lightly, and when the Cossack cavalry rushed to a distance of less than three hundred steps from their own array, they gave the general order almost at the same time, and in an instant, the sound of rushing was already like a firecracker, although the distance was a little far, but the density of tens of thousands of people shooting in turn was amazingly high, not to mention that many machine guns fired at the same time, and countless bullet chains were intertwined into a huge fire net. But even so, a group of Cossack cavalry still surged forward, fearless to the Qing army array, despite heavy casualties, but did not give up at all, as time passed, the Cossack cavalry who risked death to charge finally rushed to the distance of less than 100 meters from the Qing army array.

"Bastard, why did the right flank stand still, go, tell them to hurry up and give the order to attack!"

The Cossack cavalry was rushing at any cost, but the Dzungar army on the other side was not moving at all, and when he saw this, Lieutenant General Tolsky was angry, waved his hand, called a herald, and roared angrily.

"Yes!"

Hearing the roar of Lieutenant General Tolsky, the herald dared to delay the slightest moment, and one of them stood up and saluted, answered the promise in a loud voice, turned around, and hurried to the top of the mountain......
