140 The Last Scuffle

"General, that corps on the front line of the Taiping Army is crazy, they directly crashed headlong into the infantry line of our army, which is several times the number of them!"

Jan Skzhetusky, who had just picked up the horse's hooves, glanced at the infantry battlefield with gloomy eyes, and could no longer distinguish between the enemy and us, and temporarily changed the target to the Fourth Infantry Regiment of the Taiping Army, which was pressing the formation behind.

Because at this time, the cavalry of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition army had already been boosted and launched a momentum, and at this time, if it was forcibly stopped, not to mention the casualties of self-trampling, the confused state of morale alone could make the Polish cavalry who had just been cheered up lose their strength.

Morale can be boosted, and this truth is naturally deep in Jan Skzhetusky.

"We rushed towards another infantry regiment of the Taiping Army, and today the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom will end at the hands of the great Polish warriors!" Jan Krzetuski did not forget the opportunity to boost the morale of the army under his command, turned the spearhead and continued to raise the horse's hooves to move forward, most of the cavalry group following him was brainwashed by the so-called chivalry of this era, they did not need to know why they changed their combat objectives, they just needed to understand that they had been on the way to attack and fight.

It was this uprightness of the Polish hussars that forged their imposing reputation and their brilliant achievements in the face of death.

Of course, it was also because of this rigid and conservative thinking of the Poles that they created a laughing stock during World War II - the use of cavalry to charge German tanks......

The Poles have never lacked warriors who dare to rush and fight, they only lack a commander who is wise enough.

"General, the Taiping Army Corps has enough time to list the hollow phalanx before it, we ......"

"Do I need to repeat my command? We have a full 4,000 cavalry, and there are only 2,000 left in this Taiping infantry regiment, so what reason do we have to retreat? ”

Jan Krzetuski replied in a cold voice, completely dispelling the doubts of the Polish noble generals who followed him.

Jan Krzetuski's idea was simple, he gave up the idea of defeating the Taiping army after discovering the hopeless fanatical morale of the Taiping soldiers, and he knew that in the face of such a fanatical army that could fight to the last man, the only way to achieve true victory was to kill them all!

Obviously, the Taiping Army, which has an advantage in weapons and tactics, cannot be completely annihilated for no reason, and if you want to completely eliminate the boss of Hong Tiancheng, you can only fill it with human lives, to put it mildly, the soldiers of this Polish-Lithuanian coalition army are gathered from the Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania, and they are not Yang Skzhetuski's private soldiers, so he naturally will not care too much about losses.

As long as the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom can be destroyed, all the costs are worth it!

As a result, the iron cavalry of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition army, one on the left and one on the right, unexpectedly inserted into the hollow phalanx that the Fourth Infantry Regiment of the Taiping Army had just closed.

Hong Tiancheng naturally knew that with an infantry regiment with considerable battle losses, he could not stop the destruction of all the cavalry of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition army in any case, and his purpose was very simple, to drag down the last mobile strength of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition army.

The 4th Infantry Regiment of the Taiping Army did not live up to Hong Tiancheng's expectations, and they used their lives and muskets and even waist knives to make the rushing Polish-Lithuanian cavalry fall into the quagmire of fierce battle, and lost the ability to maneuver in a large area for a while.

At this moment, the 300 Naker heavy cavalry, who had been waiting for a long time, launched a charge to the sound of rumbling drums, and they held their cavalry spears, which were not inferior to the Polish hussars, and slanted into the battlefield where the 3rd Infantry Regiment of the Taiping Army was fearlessly charged.

These veterans of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition were not die-hard soldiers of the Taiping Army, they did not have the courage to face the onslaught of cavalry, and they did not have the spiritual realm of dedicating themselves to the country.

300 The Nakr heavy cavalry was small in number, but all of them were heavily armored cavalry, and the Nakr heavy cavalry cut the entire Polish-Lithuanian infantry line in half like a knife cut into butter.

As for the original extra-long spear phalanx of the Polish-Lithuanian combined infantry, it was disrupted as early as the decisive charge of the Third Infantry Regiment, which is also the meaning of the sacrifice of the Third Infantry Regiment of the Taiping Army.

The infantry group caught in the melee, in the face of the charge of the heavy cavalry, was undoubtedly sent to death, especially the despair brought by the mentality, which became the last straw that crushed the hearts of the veterans of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition.

Interspersed all the way, the armor on the heavy cavalry of the Ark greatly reduced their losses, and then turned the horse's head to launch a trampling charge against the chaotic infantry group again!

On the other battlefield, the Polish-Lithuanian cavalry could only watch their infantry line being repeatedly ravaged by a fierce strong man like a girl stripped naked.

A small number of Polish-Lithuanian cavalry who did not participate in the war could only burst out of blood flowers in front of the Naker heavy cavalry cluster, which could not stop their footsteps at all, and the scenery of the heavy cavalry was still the king of the field in this era!

The Polish-Lithuanian infantry group quickly collapsed on its own, holding out for a much shorter time than Jan Skzhetuski and others had imagined, and they had been fighting for too long, from the initial firing to the fearless charge of the Taiping musketeers, coupled with the ravages of the heavy cavalry, these Polish-Lithuanian infantry not only suffered a blow in morale, but also collapsed to the limit of physical and mental strength.

However, the number of Nakel heavy cavalry was too small after all, after they destroyed the main infantry force of the entire Polish-Lithuanian coalition army, they only had more than 100 horses left, and as for the third infantry regiment of the Taiping Army that launched a fearless charge at the beginning, there were only double digits left, and Li Zuosheng, who was the seat of the regiment, could not even find the body......

It was such a force with heavy losses, but it did not hesitate to turn around and plunge into the battlefield of the Fourth Infantry Regiment of the Taiping Army, intending to encircle and annihilate the thousands of Polish-Lithuanian cavalry that had fallen in!

In the eyes of the noble generals of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition, this approach is simply crazy!

Do the Taiping army have to fight to the last before they are willing to give up?

At the same time, Hong Tiancheng's battalion of thousands of guards also stepped forward, and the cavalry of the Polish-Lithuanian coalition had become fragmented in the hollow phalanx of the 4th Infantry Regiment of the Taiping Army, and a scuffle was inevitable, unless one of them was willing to flee and leave its back defenseless under the enemy's guns.

Obviously, neither Jan Skzhetuski nor the Lithuanian aristocratic generals were willing to be defeated in this way, after all, judging from the comparison of the remaining forces on the battlefield, the Polish-Lithuanian coalition still had a slight advantage, and most of them rode on horses.

Jan Skzhetusky looked at the approaching Hong Tiancheng Shuai Qi with blood-red eyes, and resolutely launched a decisive charge against it with the surrounding cavalry, wanting to defeat the Taiping Army in addition to killing all opponents, there is another way!
