Chapter 177 The cavalry is coming

The British were really ruthless this time, and the six hundred elite cavalry launched a decisive charge. That's not all, there are 3,000 cavalry in the new army. These cavalry, who had been under Adolf's command, followed him in all directions, six hundred cavalry, but the most elite and fastest among them. The front end of these 600 people was already connected with the eighty warriors blocking the door. And the 2,400 cavalry that followed behind, the same, had no concept of retreating at all.

Fortunately, some of the fighters had already climbed the wall and began to set up blocking positions. It's just that there are only more than 100 people on it, and unless one person has a heavy machine gun, it can't be stopped at all. If these cavalry were allowed to rush in like this, and thus pick up the six hundred cavalry, who had already been killed and wounded, the situation here would be completely out of control. Babu was armed with a light machine gun and was rushing to the death at the enemy. However, it still doesn't seem to have much consequence.

Xiao Lin has been paying attention to Adolf's whereabouts since he received the Night Stalker's report. Field brigades, and now not only infantry and artillery. The company has no experience in raising horses, and does not have a suitable horse breed and pasture. But the company doesn't, the British do. How do you sing the lyrics, oh, by the way, "No guns, no cannons, the enemy made us". The company has guns and cannons, and it is very advanced, so isn't it easy and pleasant to grab some horses?

The British too, the infantry artillery firepower is not comparable to the company, and the only superior branch is the cavalry. For a while, the thirty elite sniper teams of the night stalkers were borrowed by the major brigade commanders to snipe the cavalry in order to obtain war horses. Busy until now, the 3rd Field Brigade led by Babu, no matter what, also has a battalion of cavalry, that is, 300 elite cavalry. Cavalry is used for field battles, and it is a matter of two hundred and five talents to attack a city or fight guerrilla warfare in a city.

Xiao Lin is naturally not two hundred and five, and has been suppressing these three hundred cavalry and not letting them move. At the same time, he also transferred the cavalry of the 1st and 2nd Field Brigades, although the cavalry of the 1st and 2nd Brigades was not much, but they added up to 1,000 people. The three-way army is actually not too far away, only a dozen hours away. This was also due to the fact that the British had reduced their defensive line so that there were only three points of attack on the entire front.

And if the cavalry were to come, with all their might, it would have been four hours to arrive. When Babu rushed up with his men to block the enemy's cavalry, Sholin had received a summons that a thousand cavalry were about to arrive. However, the horses of these cavalry had to rest for half an hour before they could go into battle. Otherwise, if people are sleepy and lacking in horses, they will also give away their heads when they go up. The equipment of the cavalry, Xiao Lin has never had a good way. After all, this is not the era of cold weapons, relying on plate armor and spears and giant swords to fight.

Plate armor can't defend against the attack of thermal weapons at all. However, this cavalry still has to enter close combat in the end, and it is not possible to defend it at all. In desperation, Xiao Lin could only reopen the research of plate armor. Now, the cavalrymen all have a thin cuirass made of industrial-grade steel. The upper body, all parts that may affect combat effectiveness, such as the heart, throat, wrists, etc., are protected. In the heart area, a pair of heart goggles was added to ensure that it would not be broken by the short-handled fire guns of the British cavalry.

Because of the combat nature of the cavalry and the lack of cavalry and submachine guns in the company, the weapons that Sholin equipped them with were mainly melee weapons. A company-copied Type 56 cavalry sword, forged with the strongest steel that the steel mills in Beran can produce today, is far sharper and stronger than all the sabers used by cavalry in this era. Moreover, because of the use of lighter alloy steel, the weight was very small, and the burden on the wrists of the cavalry was very small.

Of course, the cavalry units, which are advanced in thermal weapons, cannot be equipped with thermal weapons at all. Sholin gave the engineers the task of using the base of the Type 17 pistol to develop a simple submachine gun suitable for cavalry. Officially named the Type 17-Q cavalry submachine pistol by Shotin, it was officially equipped with the company's existing 1,300 cavalry units a week before the start of the war. Xiao Lin didn't know how at the time, thinking that it was not enough insurance, and then equipped each of them with a Type 17 pistol as a melee firearm for self-defense.

Xiao Lin wanted the cavalry to complete the assembly, and the 1,300 cavalry moved together to drive the enemy's cavalry troops out at once. However, there were constant cries for help from the front. Xiao Lin knew that this was the first time that the fighters of the company had experienced such a critical moment, and they had no experience, so they didn't know what to do. Speaking of which, the company has fought a lot of battles, but with the careful arrangement of Xiao Lin's commanders and the help of weapons and equipment that are enough to crush the enemy, it is basically a smooth battle, and it is really the first time that it has been pressed and fought by the enemy.

If Xiao Lin didn't let go of the cavalry in his hand, he wouldn't be able to fight in front. There was no way, Xiao Lin had to send out the cavalry of the 3rd Field Brigade first. At the same time, he kept asking his own troops to keep up closely, imitating his own cavalry to be beaten by the enemy, resulting in huge casualties. The cavalry battalion of the 3rd Field Brigade has long been suffocated. It's understandable to fight the enemies in the town and not let them go, after all, they didn't show up for this.

However, it has been said that they encountered the enemy's cavalry, and there was a fierce battle at the gate of the city, and their own side fell to the upper hand. They waited with hope for Xiao Lin to give the order to attack, but they did not expect that Xiao Lin was worried about their combat effectiveness and asked them to wait for the arrival of other friendly cavalry. The men of the cavalry battalion almost wilted. I thought that I had to continue to watch my comrades in front of me fight to the death of the enemy cavalry, and the cavalry battalion where I could only sit on the cold bench began to decline in morale.

Xiao Lin commanded, as if a super powerful purification spell had emptied all the negative states on their bodies. The men of the cavalry battalion, each screaming excitedly, picked up the Type 17-Q submachine pistol at his waist in one hand, held the reins in the other, kicked the horse under the crotch with his legs, and rushed straight through the widest road in town. The fighters in front almost all received the news, and at this distance, the walkie-talkie in the hands of the soldiers of the field division was still enough to use.

They had already vacated the passage, and watching their cavalry rush past with a roar, these warriors couldn't help but feel at ease, no matter what, they also had elite cavalry units on their side, and they would not let the enemy dominate. Then, one by one, the soldiers also followed the footsteps of the cavalry and rushed frantically to the battlefield from this side. When the cavalry arrived, Babu was about to be slashed by the enemy cavalry with his saber, but fortunately he blocked it with the barrel of his light machine gun in time.

Babu was in a state where the old force was gone and the new force was not born, and a saber was slashed next to him again. Babu thought he was going to die here, but a Type 17 bullet hit the owner of the saber, and the saber fell weakly, and Babu was killed. Looking in the direction of the gunshots, Babu watched as his cavalry crashed into the array of enemy cavalry. Babu led by example, and indeed played a huge role, plus the people who rushed up from behind, a total of more than 150 infantry, and forcibly blocked the 600 elite British cavalry near the city gate.

The original number of 600 elite British cavalry is now only more than 300. However, the more than 100 infantry blocking the road also paid a huge price. More than 30 people died under the saber, and more than 60 people were knocked down, and there was no danger to life for the time being, but if it was not treated in time, it was uncertain. When the cavalry battalion of the 3rd Field Brigade rushed up, the British cavalry was still besieging more than 60 infantry up and down.

The cavalry battalion ran out of 25 rounds of 17-Q submachine pistol ammunition while running. The cavalry is too large, whether it hits a man or a horse, it is the same, and the combat effectiveness will drop sharply. Regardless of the effective range and accuracy, he fired wildly from a distance of 200 meters, killing more than 60 enemy cavalry. Then, with a flick of the submachine gun, the pistol returned to their backs along the shoulder strap. The free right hand, in the next second, pulled out the five or six cavalry knives from the saddle next to him.

After fighting for a while, these British cavalry had exhausted a lot of strength. After being hit like this, the casualties were called heavy, and three hundred five-six cavalry knives were repeatedly slashed at more than a hundred British cavalrymen. Each person has at least two knife edges, which fall directly on the horse's back. Next, the remaining more than 100 elite cavalry of the New Army were miserable, and the 300 cavalry of the 3rd Field Brigade who had newly joined the war group, plus more than 60 infantry who still had a certain combat effectiveness, besieged together.

By the time the 2,400 cavalry of the British New Army stormed the town, these elite cavalry were gone. Of the fighters of the cavalry battalion, only a dozen people were slightly wounded. The new infantry, under the command of the spirited Báb, was rebuilding its defensive position. Now, there are three heavy machine guns and seven light machine guns. As long as there is a little more time, these cavalrymen will die as many as they come. The commander of the cavalry battalion of the 3rd Field Brigade, Kokasi, immediately made a decision, took his men, divided into various groups, and rushed forward to delay the enemy's cavalry.

They had magazines for fifteen Type 17-Q submachine pistols on horseback, and they used one, and there were. The disparity between the two sides was too great to rush into close combat. It seems that many buildings have been demolished and the roads have been widened slightly for the convenience of their own cavalry, which is enough for seven or eight cavalry to turn around side by side. Three hundred cavalrymen, rushing forward, took the Type 17-Q submachine pistol and fired a section, and then immediately turned around and turned around, and it was difficult for the enemy to pursue.
