Strictly speaking, the ambush position of Kalamaili Mountain is not a very ideal ambush place, although the whole battlefield is pocket-shaped, but the middle is too open - two opposite sides, more than 20 zhang apart by more than 30 zhang high hills, are regarded as the entrance of the pocket array, and at the end of the battlefield is a 30 zhang high mountain, behind the mountain is a small river; The meandering river made several large bends and flowed into a large lake on the right side of the battlefield, and by the lake was an undulating hill, very low, at most more than ten zhang high; On the left side of the battlefield is a swamp, impassable for men and horses, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the mud without a roof; The whole battlefield is diamond-shaped, small at both ends and large in the middle, and there are some small lakes in the center of the battlefield within a radius of more than ten miles.

It is actually very difficult to effectively give the enemy a surprise attack with such an open pocket array, to be honest, it is not easy to tighten the pockets, but this is already the most ideal pocket array in this area, although the terrain and terrain are not ideal, but it can only barely be used, isn't it? At this point, Yinzuo can only hope for the bravery of his soldiers, but the mystery of all this will soon be revealed - in the smoke and dust, Ada led the defeated Qing cavalry to rush through the two portal-like hills in a panic, and fled all the way to a camp in the middle of the battlefield, behind which were the pursuing Cossack cavalry and the main force of the Russian army following behind.

Major General Buchrusky is a veteran of the war, and although he despises the combat effectiveness of the "yellow-skinned monkey" in his heart, he still has basic tactical accomplishments, and he will not ignore the possibility of being ambushed because of this. As soon as he led his troops through the mountain pass and saw the huge camp in the center of the battlefield from afar, Major General Buchrusky was excited, but he couldn't help but be a little suspicious, and ordered the Russian infantry to stop at the mountain pass, and he took out the monoculars on his waist to carefully observe the surrounding movements. It was only because the Qing army was hiding tightly that Major General Buchrusky did not find anything wrong.

"Blow the trumpet, let Colonel Chulyusky reconnoiter the camp with fire, and order Konevsky to send two companies to occupy the two hills, and the rest of the troops to stand by. Major General Buchrusky lowered his telescope, frowned quickly, and pointed to the two hills not far behind him, giving a series of battle orders.

This old man is still very cautious. Damn, didn't go any further. Yinzuo hid in the woods and observed with a telescope for a while, and found that the Russian army stopped at the entrance of the battlefield, and did not rush to attack the camp, but sent two small troops to occupy the two small hills, and he couldn't help but be a little anxious - the dense forest behind the two hills each hid a battalion of Yinzuo's men and horses, if that gang of old Maozi went to the top of the mountain, Yinzuo's entire strategic plan would be bankrupt.

"Order the cavalry battalion to attack. Be careful not to use guns, entangle that Cossack cavalry, be quick! Seeing that Lao Maozi didn't take the bait, Yinzuo had to temporarily change his plan and send out a cavalry battalion that was originally used as one of the strategic reserves.

Sun Sihao, the commander of the Chinese military camp who followed behind Yinzuo, answered in a low voice. Rushed down the hillside, ran to the cavalry camp waiting in the dense forest, turned on his horse, and drew the command knife at his waist. "The Holy Lord's order, the cavalry battalion to attack, not to shoot, entangle that Cossack cavalry, attack!" As soon as the words fell, he rushed out of the dense forest in one by one, and more than 2,000 Qing cavalrymen who had already been ready to fight unloaded their guns from their saddles and drew their sabers. Immediately behind Sun Sihao, he rushed towards the Cossack cavalry who were chasing Ada.

Colonel Chuliusky chased after the defeated Qing cavalry, and suddenly heard his own military horn order from behind, and asked him to reconnoiter the movement of the big camp, seeing the figures in the big camp shaking, and vaguely saw rows of artillery being pushed out of the barracks by the "yellow-skinned monkeys", he couldn't help but feel a little weak in his heart, but an order was an order, and he didn't dare to disobey. had no choice but to follow closely behind the Qing cavalry and rush towards the camp. It's just that the speed of the horse has quietly slowed down.

Qi Haoran, the deputy general of the firearms battalion, who was responsible for guarding the barracks, was originally planned to wait for Lao Maozi's entire army to enter the battlefield. After a little resistance, he gave up this barracks, only three or four of the so-called "artillery" were genuine, and the rest were wooden fakes, once Lao Maozi entered the barracks, there was buried in advance** It can come in handy, but now Lao Maozi's main force has not moved, and only some Cossack cavalry have come, which makes Qi Haoran a little unsure whether to start fighting, and when he hesitated, Ada had already led the retreating Qing cavalry to rush to the camp.

"General, what to do, to fight or not to fight? If you don't hit Lao Maozi again, you will cross the shooting boundary. A guerrilla general standing beside Qi Haoran asked with an anxious expression.

Qi Haoran stomped his feet hatefully, his fat cheeks twitched, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Fight!" Fire! Fuck it hard! With Qi Haoran's order, the Qing artillery began to fire, although there are only four genuine guns, which can be pre-set to shoot Zhuyuan The hit rate is extremely high, but seeing the cannonball roaring and falling to the middle of the Cossack cavalry queue that is rushing wildly, blowing up a cloud of blood, mud mixture, mixed with the stumps of people and horses, and the broken arms splashed in all directions, although these four cannons only killed more than ten Cossack cavalry, but broke up the charging formation of the Cossack cavalry, and more than five hundred Cossack cavalry immediately dispersed, There is no longer the momentum of the frantic pursuit just now.

It's too late, it's fast, at this time Ada led the defeated army to rush to the front of the camp, but did not enter the camp, but ran around the barracks from the left side to the back, turned the corner of the barracks and disappeared, and the Cossack cavalry, who was already in chaos, saw that the prey in pursuit was gone, and each of them lowered their horses, and was hesitating whether to attack the barracks, when they suddenly found that the smoke and dust on the right side of the camp were billowing up, followed by the rumbling sound of horses' hooves, obviously a large force of cavalry was exerting their strength to impact, and they were suddenly in chaos, No matter how Colonel Chulyusky shouted, he was busy turning around and preparing to flee for his life.

"Kill!" Sun Sihao, who was in the lead, turned out of the corner of the barracks, regardless of whether the cavalry battalion behind him followed, shouted loudly and rushed towards the Cossack cavalry in chaos, and immediately, more than 2,000 Qing cavalry who had been recuperating for a long time also rushed towards the Cossack cavalry, and at this time, the Cossack cavalry, which had already been overdrawn by horsepower, had just turned their horses' heads, and was caught up by the swarming Qing cavalry before they could escape, and a massacre began in the open space in front of the barracks.

In all fairness. The Cossack cavalry is undoubtedly a very strong cavalry team, not to mention the tall figure, the horses are also tall and strong, the riding skills are also good, and they fight all year round, so that this group of Cossack cavalry has become a soldier oil, and in terms of war experience, it is still much stronger than the Qing cavalry, but it is a pity that now this group of Cossack cavalry has fought repeatedly. After being ambushed several times, with heavy casualties, morale was already low, coupled with long-distance attacks, both horsepower and human physical strength were all overdrawn, and the number of people was less than a quarter of the Qing army. If the main force of the Russian army does not attack again, what awaits them can only be the annihilation of the whole army.

"Oh, damn yellow-skinned monkeys!" No sooner had the Qing cavalry turned the corner of the barracks than Major General Bukhrusky judged that the Cossack cavalry would not escape annihilation. If the Cossack cavalry is all over, not to mention whether it can win this battle, even if it is won, Major General Bukhrusky will not be able to escape the fate of going to a military tribunal after returning home. Moreover, if there is no cavalry reconnaissance and cover in this vast steppe, if you rely on infantry alone, there is a possibility of being attacked at any time, and in the event of a close combat, the value of the musket is only a spear, so that there is only one choice left for Major General Buchrusky - the whole army to attack. Save the doomed Cossack cavalry.

"The Guards attack! Run forward! Major General Bukhrusky, who had clearly judged the situation, did not hesitate at all, and quickly issued the battle order, and the Russian phalanx, which was already armed with guns, immediately rushed up, although it was fast but not chaotic, showing good tactical literacy, and there was no confusion in the case of seven or eight phalanxes running forward, which made Yinzuo, who was hiding in the dense forest at the end of the battlefield, secretly relieved, and couldn't help frowning - this battle was not as easy to fight as originally thought!

The Russian army moved extremely quickly. In a matter of moments, he had already rushed to the center of the battlefield. At this time, the Cossack cavalry had been defeated, except for the more than 200 Cossack cavalry led by Colonel Chulyusky, who gathered together to resist to the death. The lone Cossack cavalry had been wiped out, and at this time, Sun Sihao was leading the Qing cavalry to attack the Cossack cavalry that was huddled in a ball.

"Signal the cavalry battalion to withdraw! Let Kui Xua and Li Dahai attack and close the door! Seeing that the Russian army phalanx had entered the battlefield, and the Russian army who was ordered to occupy the two portal-shaped mountain bags was about to climb to the top of the slope, he knew that he couldn't wait any longer, so he quickly gave the order without even putting down the binoculars.

On the hillside at the end of the battlefield, three ground horns were fired in a row, and then a terrible horn sounded, and the Qing cavalry, who were surrounding the Cossack cavalry and constantly attacking, heard the horn sounded, and no longer paid attention to the stubborn Cossack cavalry, and fled in the direction of the camp with a roar, and rushed to the Russian phalanx on the periphery of the battlefield only had time to release a row of guns, but did not hit a single person, but it was as if shooting for the Qing cavalry to see off.

At the same time as the cavalry of the Qing army retreated, the Qing forward battalion and the right battalion of the Qing soldiers who were ambushed in the dense forest between the two hills heard the sound of the cannon, and immediately rushed out of the dense forest like a tiger, shouting to kill the two companies of the Russian army that were caught off guard. The rest turned around and fled down the hill in a desperate manner, screaming and screaming as they ranched, while the condescending Qing soldiers killed the fleeing Russian troops by name.

"Stop!" Seeing that the Qing cavalry was retreating, Major General Bukhrusky immediately ordered the Russian phalanx to stop, and he became suspicious of the large group of cavalry that had just appeared - this group of well-trained cavalry not only dressed very differently from the Mongolian cavalry, but also played a very different banner, although Major General Bukhrusky did not understand the meaning of these flags, but he had a very bad feeling in his heart, standing in place suspiciously, taking out the "map" he had obtained in his arms and silently pondering. Just listening to the sound of the gunshots, Major General Bukhrusky judged that this kind of shooting was definitely not the arquebus or flintlock pistol equipped by the Russian army, and turned his horse's head in a panic to look at the road, but he happened to see that the two companies sent by himself to occupy the two small hills were being driven down the mountain like ducks, and Major General Buchrusky's scalp was numb, knowing that his troops were in ambush, he couldn't help but be a little flustered, gritted his teeth and rode on the horse, his eyes were red.

"General, we are in ambush. Colonel Churyusky led the remnants of more than 200 Cossack cavalry back to the Russian brigade in shock, and when he saw Major General Bukhrusky, he saluted and said worriedly.

Major General Bukhrusky ignored Colonel Chulyusky's nonsense, didn't even bother to return the salute, rode on his horse and carefully observed the dynamics of the battlefield, and after a long silence, Major General Bukhrusky called Lieutenant Colonel Konevsky, the acting commander of the 1st Regiment, to his side, pointed to the camp in the distance and said: "Lieutenant Colonel gives you a task, take that camp within half an hour." ”

"Yes, General, I promise to complete the mission!" Lieutenant Colonel Konevsky puffed out his chest without hesitation and saluted.

"Well, go ahead, may Our Lady bless you. Major General Buchrusky returned the salute and made a cross on his chest.

"For the sake of the Empire, the Guards attack! The first group comes with me! Lieutenant Colonel Konevsky rode back to the front of the queue, drew the command knife at his waist and pointed in the direction of the barracks, and gave the order to attack in a loud voice......
