Due to the nature of the alien race itself and the lack of human resources, the Taiping army could neither get any intelligence assistance from the locals on the battlefield outside the occupied area, nor could it subordinate its own spy network, and could only rely on simple army scouts to explore the terrain, so it was normal for the main force of the Taiping army to be ambushed.

Normal national invaders will prepare for years or even decades in advance to draw detailed maps, and use spies and spies to infiltrate the political organs of the invaded country and even local famous families, so as to avoid the invasion army from being ambushed after entering the unfamiliar territory, and can also advance more quickly through their own people who are familiar with the terrain.

It's a pity that Hong Tiancheng, who relies on the all-out war system, has risen too fast, and the alien identity also limits the locals' sense of belonging to the Heavenly Kingdom, so the early war work is basically '0' for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the Taiping Army is also used to breaking it with brute force, and tactics such as surprise attacks are based on the soft power advantages of multiple parties, which is naturally not suitable for the Taiping Army.

However, the Taiping Army's method of fighting with all hard power is also the envy of other countries, and if it has a die-hard army, who needs to work hard and spend a lot of time and manpower to infiltrate and buy the enemy country?

Even if you are willing to spend time preparing for war, you must not provoke the enemy country without provocation......

The biggest advantage of the Taiping army is that it can start a war anytime and anywhere without any pre-war work, and it is this that always catches Hong Tiancheng's opponents off guard.

It is precisely for this reason that the fall of the Smolensk region is based on the fact that if the Taiping army makes long-term preliminary preparations, it will inevitably be discovered by the Russian government in the Smolensk region, and the government of the Smolensk region can completely expand its troops and prepare for war and ask Moscow for reinforcements from other regions to assist in the defense.

Many of the opponents defeated by the Taiping Army did not actually exert their full strength, including the Lithuanian region, if Lithuania was given several years to guard against the Taiping Army, the number of Lithuanian enemy troops resisting the Taiping Army could at least double!

On the contrary, the main division of the Taiping Army attacking the Kiev region was faced with the formed Russian Imperial Expeditionary Force and the main Polish army corps that had always maintained a fighting state.

If victorious, the main division of the Taiping Army will be destroyed, and even if it fails, the Russian Imperial Expeditionary Force and the main Polish corps, which occupy a geographical advantage, can be stopped in time.

In the face of the swarming Lithuanian rout, the Taiping officers did not order indiscriminate shooting, because it was pointless, there were too many Lithuanian routs, and after the Taiping army killed them, the Russian aristocratic cavalry with extremely fast speed had already brandished their sabers and killed.

Therefore, in the Taiping army, there were passages between the soldiers to allow a large number of Lithuanian routs to flee inward, where the gendarmerie and Taiping army officers who managed them were gathered and reorganized.

The advantage is that after a certain period of time, these routs will be re-appeased by the officers in a safe environment and take up arms to participate in the battle, while the disadvantage is that the Taiping soldiers in front must withstand the Lithuanian rout behind for a period of time for them to regroup, once the Lithuanian rout is not reorganized in front of the collapse, the frightened Lithuanian rout will inevitably fry again, and it is also in the Taiping army formation, and the consequences can be imagined.

Of course, the Taiping army can also choose to expel these Lithuanian routs who have entered the army formation from another direction and completely abandon them, but in that case, these Lithuanian routs will be completely chilled, and even if they are forcibly reorganized after the war, they will lose their most basic loyalty.

Obviously, the elite of the Taiping Army headquarters, who were very confident in their own combat effectiveness, chose the plan of gathering the Lithuanian rout and regrouping, and they firmly believed that it was impossible for the Russian noble cavalry to break through the defense line of the Taiping Army headquarters.

When the figure of the Russian aristocratic cavalry appeared within the effective range of the elite musketeers of the Taiping Army in the front row, even if there was a group of Lithuanian routs in front of them, the Taiping army still resounded with a salvo!

A puff of white smoke and a rain of bullets drifted by, and the Russian aristocratic cavalry stepped on the corpses of their own people and the Lithuanian rout, shouting 'Long live the Tsar' and rushed into the military formation of the Taiping army, and at the speed of the cavalry charge, it was too late to fire a second salvo!

After the volley, the elite musketeers of the Taiping army only had time to stab the inserted bayonet into the barrel of the gun, and turned into spearmen against the Russian noble cavalry.

The 2,000 Russian aristocratic cavalry, who had not directly fought the elite musketeers of the Taiping Army, assumed that as soon as they broke through the thin line of Taiping infantry, these low infantry would collapse under the slash of their sabers, and become part of the rout, just like the Lithuanian soldiers before them.

It's a pity that they, like all the enemy soldiers who fell to the elite musketeers of the Taiping Army, went from rampant to stunned, and then from shock to fear, half an hour later, the Russian aristocratic cavalry looked around, and the cavalry team that was slowed down by the dense Taiping infantry had fallen into a sea of people, and the miserable corpses of the Taiping Army on the ground did not affect the fighting enthusiasm of this group of Taiping maniacs in the slightest!

The Russian aristocratic cavalry is worthy of being the elite of the cavalry of the Russian Empire, from the Russian Boya aristocratic family, the cavalry unit composed of the sons of the Boyer nobles who have been trained in horseback combat since childhood, and penetrated the thin battle line of the elite musketeers of the first Taiping Army at the first time......

And then that was the end of their victory......

The Russian aristocratic cavalry that penetrated the first line of the Taiping Army's battle line was like a sandwich pie, stabbed by the Taiping soldiers who turned around and the Taiping soldiers who fought the second line of defense at the cost of their lives.

At the beginning, the Russian aristocratic cavalry could still use the proficiency of equestrianism and space to toss and move to cut people, but the cavalry troops that lost their speed advantage were destined to be unable to confront the desperate infantry corps, and after the two thousand Russian aristocratic cavalry entered the Taiping army formation, they didn't even make a splash, they were all thrown there, and the Russian aristocratic cavalry who came to their senses and were surrounded couldn't even break through!

Because any elite musketeer of the Taiping Army who stood in front of the cavalry, even if he was killed, would not move his body!

The more than half an hour brought by the Russian aristocratic cavalry only managed to allow the follow-up Russian infantry corps to rush to the front of the Taiping army.
