At this time, Witt was directly in front of the horse formation. He looked arrogant, raised his head and looked ahead. The dense medals of war merit on his left chest shone brightly under the sunlight. (eng.com)

Witt held his command saber with his left hand and raised his telescope with his right hand to observe the terrain ahead carefully.

At this time, his adjutant rushed forward and pointed to the front and said, "Commander, there is a large valley ahead. Do you need to take a photo of the reconnaissance troops to inquire about the situation?"

"It's important to hurry. We must arrive outside Jingzhou City before tonight to set up camp and launch an attack tomorrow. Besides, although the terrain of that valley is easy to ambush, it will be flat afterwards. If the ambush fails, the entire army will be wiped out. The Southern Army is not so stupid. Don't forget, who is the king on the plain? But it's safer to send a reconnaissance team to investigate!" Witt put down his telescope and said.

Lieutenant Colonel Nick rushed forward and said, "Master Commander, I am willing to lead a reconnaissance team to check!" Lieutenant Colonel Nick was always angry after failing the last battle, and now it was his chance to show himself.

"Okay, Nick, since you volunteered, I will give you my best. You can take the team to investigate immediately!" Witt waved.

Lieutenant Colonel Nick was overjoyed. He jumped out of his troops, raised his whip and took a stream of smoke and dust to go straight to the valley.

In the telescope, Zhang Zuolin saw a Cossack cavalry squad running towards this side. Zhang Zuolin said to the radio communication soldiers beside him: "Notify all departments, don't act rashly without my order. This is the Russian army's reconnaissance squad, don't expose the target!"

Zhang Zuolin was born in Liaodong and had contacted many Cossack cavalry when he was in the northeast. He knew that before the Cossack cavalry passed through the valley, he would send a reconnaissance team to investigate carefully. Now looking at the size of this cavalry team, it seems that Witt was not very cautious. He just sent more than twenty cavalry to investigate such a large valley.

Zhang Zuolin's order immediately spread to both sides of the valley through an invisible radio wave. The slopes on both sides of the valley were filled with dense southern troops preparing to ambush. Each soldier was covered with hay for cover. From a high point, it was like dense fallen leaves, which filled the oblique swathes on both sides.

Wang Jianchuan was hiding in a sniper position. There was an observer beside him. The observer whispered: "Captain Wang, the reconnaissance team of the Cossack Cavalry is here."

Wang Jianchuan nodded and whispered: "Let other snipers hide, don't be found by the enemy's scouts."

Lieutenant Colonel Nick's reconnaissance team arrived instantly. When they arrived at the entrance of the valley, Lieutenant Colonel Nick raised his telescope and observed the surroundings. After a while, Nick saw that there was nothing abnormal, so he waved his hand and entered the canyon with the twenty-four horsemen.

This time, Nick was not as reckless as before. After entering the valley, he slowed down all the cavalry and searched. Several cavalrymen who were good at tracking even jumped off the horse and searched on the ground to see if there were any traces of large corps passing by.

Zhang Zuolin looked nervously at the Cossack cavalry who were carefully searching for clues in the valley. He secretly sweated. Fortunately, it rained heavily the night before. Otherwise, according to the careful investigation of these Cossack cavalrymen, they might have been noticed.

Just when Zhang Zuolin was secretly lucky, suddenly, a "bang" gunshot was heard, and a bullet swept through his ear. A guard beside him fell down and the bullet hit the guard's shoulder blade. However, he forced himself to make no pain screams. Although the blood was flowing, he still covered his mouth tightly and tried not to let himself moan in pain.

Zhang Zuolin was shocked. Was he discovered?

"Bang, bang..." Another series of gunfires were heard. Listening to the gunfire, it was the water-lined rifle used by the Cossack cavalry.

Zhang Zuolin carefully lowered his head and saw the twenty Cossack cavalry holding water pearl rifles and shooting aimlessly at both sides of the valley.

Zhang Zuolin breathed a sigh of relief. This was just the firepower reconnaissance of the Cossack cavalry. Sure enough, after shooting aimlessly at the valleys on both sides, the ambush on the valley did not make any sound without receiving the order.

After the fire reconnaissance, the Cossack cavalry, under the command of a cavalry lieutenant colonel, turned their horses and ran towards their large troops. It seemed that they did not find any ambush in the valleys on both sides.

It was not until the Cossack cavalry left that Zhang Zuolin turned to check the injured guard's injuries. Fortunately, the injury was not very serious and did not hit the vital point, but only hit the shoulder blade. However, due to excessive blood loss, the guard's face looked very pale.

Zhang Zuolin whispered: "Brother, good! Medical Officer, help him down to heal his wounds!"

Zhang Zuolin once again said to the ambush on both sides of the valley via radio: "Attention, the Russian reconnaissance cavalry did not find us. Everyone prepare. The large unit of the Cossack cavalry will arrive in a while! Wait for my order before acting."

After conveying the final combat order, Zhang Zuolin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. It was too dangerous just now. If the Cossack cavalry's bullet was slightly biased, he would have to explain it here today.

If that is true, it would be a pity to death. It can be described as the words "Die before you succeed in your mission."

...

Lieutenant Colonel Nick returned to Witt's face and said, "Master, I have carefully investigated it. There were no traces of the movement of the large army in the valley. At the same time, we also conducted fire reconnaissance and did not find any abnormal situations. You can pass with confidence!"

"Yeah, it's OK, I hope it's as you said." Witt put away the telescope and nodded.

"Order the entire army to turn into a column and quickly pass through the valley ahead. You must arrive outside Jingzhou City before dusk and take Jingzhou tomorrow so that His Majesty the Russian Emperor will know what the real Volga Eagle is!" Witt ordered.

Immediately, the flag-spoken soldiers beside Vette quickly waved the small flag in their hands and passed the orders of the supreme commanders to the 30,000 Cossack cavalry in the rear.

"Hululu..." After receiving Wit's order, all the cavalrymen on the left wing excitedly and ran towards the valley under the leadership of their commanders.

For a moment, the war horses neighed, and the ten thousand Cossack cavalry on the left wing quickly changed from a square formation to a one-line formation, roaring towards the direction of the valley.

Ten thousand horses were galloping, smoke and dust rolled, and the snake-like Cossack cavalry rode wildly. Some Cossack cavalry excitedly waved their bright sabers and rushed into the valley with a strange cry.

When Zhang Zuolin saw the Cossack cavalry entering the ambush circle, he was also excited. This was his first time to command a large corps of such a large scale. He had dense beads of sweat seeped out from his nose because of tension.

Zhang Zuolin felt the earth under his chest shaking slightly, and the southern ambushers in the valleys on both sides remained motionless. Without Zhang Zuolin's order, even if the Cossack cavalry rushed in front of him, they would be as steady as a mountain.

Everyone knew that this was just the vanguard of the Cossack Cavalry. Before his large army entered the valley, Zhang Zuolin would not issue an order to attack.

Zhang Zuolin was waiting nervously, everyone was waiting nervously, waiting for most of the Cossack cavalry to enter the ambush circle!

Witt was behind and watched the left-wing cavalry in front of him enter the valley. The smoke and dust that rushed towards him made him a little confused. Seeing that the vanguard troops were safe, Witt ordered the right-wing cavalry to start passing, and he also began to follow the cavalry formation on the right-wing to run towards the direction of the valley.

Zhang Zuolin quietly watched as most of the Cossack Cavalry began to enter the valley. When he saw the forward cavalry of the Cossack Cavalry in the telescope about to arrive at the trap at the end of the valley, he decisively fired the first shot.

"Bang!", the gunshot is the signal!

After the gunshots, there were instant shocking shouts of killing sounds on both sides of the valley. At this moment, the vanguard of the Cossack Cavalry had just arrived at the trap.

It was too late to find an ambush in the front, and the trap and tripping horseshot played a role in time. Hundreds of Cossack cavalry in front of them all fell from their horses, and countless figures fell from their horses.

"Boom..." The continuous loud explosions sounded from the valley, and the Cossack cavalry in the front encountered ambush landmines after experiencing the horse pit and tripping horses.

For a moment, smoke of gunpowder rolled and flesh and blood flew everywhere!

At the same time, countless huge rocks and logs fell on both sides of the valley in an instant. Some Cossack cavalry in the middle of the valley could not dodge, and their hands and legs were broken by the huge rocks and logs, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere. The screams of countless Cossack cavalry sounded in the entire valley.

By the time Witt realized it was too late. The Cossack cavalry who survived the mines from the front of the valley came from the horse pit, tripped the horses, and after they found that there were mines at the end of the valley, they tightened the reins and stopped moving forward.

At this time, the retreat behind had been blocked by the subsequent Cossack cavalry, and Witt was trapped in the middle of the valley and could not advance or retreat.

Witt angrily said, "Nick, stupid Nick, didn't you say there was no ambush? Damn it."

But no one answered him, because Lieutenant Colonel Nick had just been smashed into a ball of rotten meat by a huge rock falling from the sky.

The huge stone logs continued to fall from the valley. After each time they fell, a large cloud of blood mist would rise from the formation of the Cossack cavalry, and the horses cried and screamed. The valley that was still calm just now turned into Shura hell after a moment.

In the valley, horse corpses and broken limbs are everywhere, and the narrow roads in the valley have been dyed brightly blood-red.

There is no way to retreat! The only way is to rush out under the mine array! This idea immediately flashed in Witt's heart.

Witt quickly gave orders to the Cossack cavalry in the front, asking them to rush out of the valley under the mine formation.

The officers of the Cossack cavalry at the forefront also realized the predicament at this time. If they were hesitant and hesitant, they might all die under the stone formation today.

Instead of waiting for death, it is better to fight to the death! Blast out of the mine formation!
