Chapter 140: The Charge of Holman Cavalry

A thousand meters!

Eight hundred meters!

The Holman cavalry is getting closer and closer to the Senna, and they are charging, and the acceleration is very fast!

"Attack!"

When the Holman cavalry was more than 700 meters away from the Senna army, Locke gave the order to attack. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Now the effective range of the machine guns they use is 800 meters to 1,000 meters, and if the enemy attacks them at a distance of a thousand meters, it is just a waste of bullets, and only after entering 800 meters will their attack make the enemy pay a terrible price!

The range of the assault rifle should be slightly closer, generally within 500 meters, and the attack effect will be better at 300 meters to 500 meters.

So Locke now gives the order to attack, that is, only armored forces will attack the enemy, and the Rangers are still poised to attack!

As soon as the armored forces attacked, Holman's cavalry immediately suffered a lot.

They had 30,000 men, but they were divided into three armies, so the cross-sectional area was relatively large, so that the machine gunners of the Senna Army could give full play to the advantage of machine gun firepower and inflict greater casualties on Holman's cavalry!

The machine gun bullet casings on this side fell one by one, and the Holman cavalry over there fell off their horses one after another!

The scene is not spectacular!

The machine gunners of the armored forces had already begun firing, and the two sides were officially fighting.

Now the Rangers are also nervously preparing, and soon the Holman cavalry will enter their range, and they must start attacking while Holman cavalry is within their range.

It is necessary to eliminate as many enemies as possible before they get closer, otherwise they will be in danger.

30,000 cavalry, this is not a small number, once they get close, then their 5,000 people are very dangerous.

Although they also have the ability to fight in close combat, in close combat, their individual combat ability is basically the same, and the enemy is so many more than him, it is difficult for them to have a chance of winning.

You still have to rely on the gun in your hand, these things are the things that really change the situation of the battle!

Five hundred meters!

Locke frowned, Holman army advanced more than two hundred meters after the Sena army attacked, but in more than two hundred meters, they only damaged about two thousand cavalry!

Two thousand cavalry is just a drop in the bucket for thirty thousand Holman cavalry!

"Ranger, fire!"

Seeing that the machine guns were really limited in their firepower against Holman's cavalry, Locke immediately began to order the Rangers to fire at Holman cavalry as soon as they came into range!

With the Ranger firing, the Holman cavalry fell much more often, after all, there were five thousand more guns!

Originally, a hundred machine guns could inflict a lot of casualties on the Holman cavalry, but now with the addition of 5,000 assault rifles, each round of firing can make hundreds or even nearly a thousand Holman cavalry fall off their horses!

It doesn't matter if you can kill those knights or not, but if they fall off their horses, it will be a certain fate, because the horses behind will trample them into meat sauce!

With the fire support of the Rangers, the Holman cavalry died much more frequently, and now for every fifty meters they advanced, a thousand knights fell!

At a distance of more than 700 to 500 meters, Holman lost only more than 2,000 knights, and at a distance of 500 to 300 meters, they lost about 5,000 knights.

According to this trend, if they want to rush from within 300 meters to the distance of 50 meters of the Senna army, they will lose at least nearly 10,000 people!

In this way, they would have lost most of their cavalry before they even came into contact with the Senna army.

Because the farther away they are, the less accurate and powerful those guns are, so their casualties are relatively smaller.

But as the distance closes, the probability of the bullet hitting the knight will increase, and the power will increase, so their casualties will increase as they get closer and closer!

"All cavalrymen, try to get as close as possible to their horses, and it is best to lie on the back of the horse, and try to minimize the area where they are exposed!"

Seeing such casualties, the general of the Holman cavalry was also anxious, and if it went on like this, by the time the two sides fought hand-to-hand, there would not be many of them left!

Moreover, the Senna army is also cavalry, and they are still about 300 meters away from them, but looking at their situation, they are still preparing to fight guerrilla warfare with themselves.

Now the Rangers of the Senna Army have begun to retreat while shooting!

If you continue to fight according to this casualty situation, you will be grinded to death by them!

This is the advantage of the Rangers, in terms of agility, they are no less mobile light cavalry, so when the Holman cavalry charges at them, they can also retreat on one side!

Although they didn't retreat as fast as the charging Holman cavalry, every step back they could kill as many Holman cavalry as they used their guns!

When the Holman cavalry heard this, everyone clung to their horses.

In fact, even if Holman's general didn't shout like this, there were already many people who did so, and this way could allow the war horses to protect them, expose their bodies to the attacks of the Senna army as much as possible, and reduce some casualties!

But that's just what they think, the soldiers of the Senna Army don't care so much, they don't care if they hit people or horses, when there are people on three sides around them, no matter how they fight, almost nothing will miss, almost every bullet can be shot into the body of a knight or a war horse!

And whether they hit the war horse or the knight, the ending is almost the same, hit the knight, the knight has to die, hit the war horse, the war horse falls, the knight also has to die, the only difference is that the war horse is more resistant than the knight, they can hold a few more shots!

Two hundred meters!

It's closer!

Locke looked at the Holman cavalry who were not afraid of death, and silently counted the distance.

He won't let his baby rangers go hand-to-hand with these reckless men, the rangers have not trained the original knights' combat skills so frequently after shooting training, and now they don't have the kind of melee ability they used to have.

Waiting, getting them closer to fifty meters, another fifty meters, surprise them!

Locke silently calculated the distance and time in his mind, and at the same time began to prepare the bannermen to give his orders to the armored troops and rangers who were fighting!

War can't be done by brute force, you have to need brains!
