The Cossack cavalry is indeed an extremely tough cavalry. Not only are they not afraid of death, they are also brave and good at fighting.
Yuzhu could see clearly through the monocular telescope. Before they officially started to fight with each other, the so-called Rehe cavalry was stabbed to death by the spears in the hands of the Cossack cavalry.
"Ah...Ama..."
"Ah...Eni..."
Amidst the galloping horses, if one falls off his horse, he will be trampled to pieces.
If during the Daoguang period, the Eight Banners had completely decayed, the so-called Rehe Iron Cavalry would have turned around and fled after suffering heavy losses.
However, the ruthless Yuzhu is right behind them.
Everyone knew very well that if anyone dared to escape from the battlefield, Yuzhu would really dare to chop off their heads!
"Ula!" After the Cossack thrust out his spear, he quickly drew his sword out of its sheath, shouted loudly, waved his sword filled with cold light, and fiercely pounced on the Rehe cavalry.
Alas, as soon as the two cavalry teams collided, a large section of the Jehol cavalrymen were cut down.
Yuzhu saw clearly that the saber in the Cossack's hand did not have a guard.
The three thousand Rehe cavalry, with their absolute numerical advantage, actually showed a tendency to collapse.
The Cossack cavalry, known as the "Eagle of the Don River Valley", truly deserves its reputation.
In fact, all this had been expected by Yuzhu.
Yuzhu's battle plan is actually extremely clear.
First, use the Mongolian cavalry to charge forward and kill people to disrupt the formation of the Cossack cavalry.
The Jehol cavalry were also light cavalry, and they rushed over with one purpose: to further consume the Cossacks' physical strength.
The real winner is actually the heavily armored Fengtai cavalry.
Since Yuzhu continuously brought in a lot of money for the old emperor, the old emperor was willing to spend money and tried his best to build a heavy armored cavalry equipped with Andalusian horses.
Andalusian horses, native to Spain, are extremely suitable for short-distance charges.
However, God is fair. Not only do Andalusian horses eat an amazing amount of food, but they are also extremely picky eaters.
More importantly, during the coldest days, Andalusian horses are unable to move at all.
Correspondingly, although the Mongolian horse is very short, it can move freely regardless of the cold or heat, and its endurance is amazing, and it can only eat hay.
When 3,000 Fengtai heavy armored cavalry joined the battlefield, the Cossack cavalry with only more than 1,000 people finally could no longer withstand it.
However, what is surprising is that the Cossacks who saw the blood were obviously cut down in large pieces, but they still refused to retreat.
Yuzhu nodded secretly, the Cossack barbarian was indeed a formidable opponent who had defeated Nahuang's elite dragoons.
At this time, the last straw that broke the camel's back was that the retreating Mongolian cavalry turned around and came back.
Under the impact of more than ten times the Qing cavalry, the Cossacks finally couldn't hold on any longer and turned around and fled.
As we all know, in cavalry combat, as long as the enemy escapes and continues to pursue, the victory will be the greatest and the loss will be the least!
As a result, more than 10,000 Qing cavalrymen who beat the fallen dog fiercely pursued and killed him.
Yuzhu touched his chin and said to himself, if it were the Rakshasa Kingdom under the rule of Emperor Gang, hey, the war team would really dare to shoot at their own people who were escaping.
The appetizers have been eaten, it’s time to serve the main meal!
After the artillery attack began, the Qing army's heavy artillery with longer range gradually took the initiative.
Stark was also a veteran. He knew it well and continued to fire artillery fire. Sooner or later, the little courage left in the Rakshasa army would be exhausted.
"Order the infantry regiment to advance collectively."
To be honest, the arrogant Stark looked down on the yellow-skinned monkeys from the East at all.
If the opponent was a British army that was good at fighting, Stark would never dare to be so arrogant.
Nearly 10,000 Rakshasa infantrymen lined up neatly and approached the Qing army's formation with guns drawn.
At this time, Yuzhu decisively left his position as commander of the Chinese army and galloped to the rear of the new army's formation.
"Everyone is here, listen to my command."
"Three rows of lines."
"All hands on bayonets!"
"Put your guns on your shoulders and walk together!"
When we meet on a narrow road, the brave one wins!
More than 9,000 Rakshasa infantrymen face off against more than 6,000 New Army soldiers. Who will blink first?
As the two sides gradually approached, the first truly modern army showdown in the history of the Qing Dynasty officially began.
The soldiers of the new army, in a three-row formation, pressed towards the Rakshasa people with their heads high and their chests held high.
The Rakshasa people, also under Stark's personal command, approached the New Army soldiers aggressively.
300 meters…
200 meters……
150 meters…
"Bang bang bang..." The Rakshasa people fired first, and the intensive gunshots resounded throughout the battlefield, and the white smoke enveloped the Rakshasa people.
In the New Army ranks, people kept getting shot and fell down.
However, the well-trained soldiers repeated a simple action over and over again.
The soldiers in the front row fell, and the soldiers directly behind immediately stepped forward to take over.
Yuzhu felt a throbbing pain in his heart, but he had to be ruthless and ignore the bloodshed and sacrifice of the New Army soldiers.
In modern army line duels, there aren't many complicated tasks, just one: Who can blink first?
In the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, when the armies of the two countries used artillery to bombard each other, the Huai army often did not lose.
Once the Japanese troops rush up with guns drawn and engage in hand-to-hand combat, the Huai army will collectively collapse and flee.
In the final analysis, the officer corps of the Huai Army is seriously insufficiently trained, but the gray or black income is astonishingly high!
For this person, once he has a way out, he will be greedy for life and afraid of death.
100 metres……
80 meters…
70 meters…
As the distance between the two armies continued to close, the Rakshasa people kept firing, and more than a hundred New Army soldiers fell into a pool of blood.
To be honest, Yuzhu's heart is bleeding!
Others may not understand, how can Yuzhu not understand?
6,000 ordinary New Army soldiers are 6,000 qualified company and platoon leaders!
When they were 60 meters apart, Yuzhu ignored the soldiers who continued to fall in the team and gave the order decisively: "Stop advancing and raise your gun!"
When the Rakshasa people entered the optimal effective shooting range of 50 meters apart, Yuzhu immediately gave the order: "First row, fire!"
"Pap-pap-pap-pap..." The clear gunshots sounded like popping beans, densely.
The barrage of revenge was like the god of death wielding a scythe. Almost in the blink of an eye, it cut down a large area of the Rakshasa people nearby.
"Second row, fire!"
"Pah, pah, pah..."
Under the intensive rain of bullets, several rows of Rakshasa lines were immediately vacant.
"Pah, pah, pah..." This is the roar of the Chinese people, fighting bravely against the greedy polar bears!
Yuzhu smiled coldly, as long as the military discipline is perfect and the dog-lock flintlock gun with a faster rate of fire will completely destroy the matchlock gun that is outdated!
