Chapter 997: Surrender

Although the two airships continued to strafe, a large number of Mongol cavalry rushed into the dense fog. But only a moment later, those who rushed into the thick fog also rushed out in tears, and were swept to the ground by the machine guns on the airship.

Just now, the airship dropped not only smoke bombs, but also gas bombs. Now there was a pungent smell in the thick fog, and neither the war horses nor the Mongol cavalry could pass through this dense fog area at all.

Most of the Mongolian cavalry who stopped, seeing such a scene, mistakenly thought that there must be poison in the dense fog, and they moved away from the dense fog for fear of inhaling the dense fog and poisoning. Because the people who entered the dense fog just now, the state after they came out, made them all deeply afraid.

At this time, several more airships appeared on both sides of the Mongolian cavalry, dropping smoke bombs one after another, completely blocking the Mongols who were about to flee along both sides of the river bank in a small area.

Zhao Guan put down the binoculars and shouted loudly into the microphone: "The artillery continues to shoot and shoot all the shells for Lao Tzu...... The others got on their horses and exterminated the Mongol Tartars for me......"

"Bang...... Bang ......"

The artillery positions had already stopped shelling, and as soon as they heard the new order, they suddenly came to their senses. The mortar gun had already adjusted its firing position, and the gunner kneeling next to him took the shell and quickly stuffed it into the muzzle.

The originally calm artillery positions were lively again. Cannonballs whistled into the sky, crossed beautiful curves, and smashed into the Mongolian Tartar horses.

Now the Mongol cavalry is scattering and fleeing, their array is already very chaotic, and the horse team is crowded in a small area, every explosion will take the lives of several people, and the surrounding war horses can't help but neigh, panic and run around.

As soon as Zhao Lianhe got on his war horse, he heard the platoon commander's loud voice and began to roar again.

"Check the weapon...... Check the ...... of the weapon Attack in battle formation......"

The officers and men of the 6th Cavalry Brigade have adapted for a period of time. Finally adapted to the rhythm of the battlefield, and no longer showed his foreign appearance as he did at the beginning of the battle. All kinds of tactical moves have finally played to the level of training.

The whole brigade organized several battle attack formations in battalion units and rushed towards the chaotic Mongolian cavalry in front.

The Mongolian cavalry trapped there was completely out of order, desperately fleeing just now. There was no formation for a long time, and it was like a plate of loose sand, and as the cannonballs fell into the crowd one after another, panicked people were running everywhere.

Several generals saw several neat cavalry formations in the distance rushing towards them, shouting loudly for the surrounding cavalry, hoping to organize a temporary cavalry array to block the opponent's attack, but at this time, the team was already in chaos. How can a group of tribal cavalry be easily organized.

The battle formation of the 6th Cavalry Brigade did not go all the way to the chaotic Mongolian horse team, but turned to the left at a distance of more than 100 meters, and then formed a horizontal formation.

The cavalryman who had finished firing the bullets gave way, and another cavalryman came up and continued to shoot, and the effect of a volley of rounds was very objective. In the face of dense Mongol Tatars, the Far Eastern cavalry hit almost every blow. One by one, the Mongol Tartars were knocked off their horses.

The cadres and non-commissioned officers of each detachment took out 40-millimeter grenade launchers and fired out one high-explosive grenade after another, causing even more damage in the chaotic Mongolian horse team.

Several arrays of the 6th Cavalry Brigade were constantly in front of the Mongol array, rushing back and forth, and the four platoons of cavalry took turns shooting. A round of 1 volleys, like bursting beans, emitted a dense gunshot.

The smoke canisters dropped by several airships lasted only five minutes, and combined with the floating, the smoke could last for about ten minutes at most. So the two airships kept throwing several smoke canisters around. Make sure that the smoke around you is always maintained.

Several other airships descended directly to a low altitude to find the most crowded spots, dropping 120mm mortar shells, incendiary bombs, and submunitions, and repeatedly strafing them with twin water-cooled heavy machine guns behind the pods.

Every time the Mongol cavalry charged the group, it would eventually turn into a massacre of Chiguoguo, and a large number of Mongolian tribal cavalry cavalry died under the ferocious firepower of the Far Eastern Army's "gun card".

In addition to the powerful and ferocious "gun card", the weapon that caused great damage to the various parts of the Mobei Mongolian region belonged to the air boat unit in the Far East. After the encirclement of the second phase of the campaign began, the airship units would also descend to a low altitude from time to time to support the ground troops on the battlefield, strafing and dropping bombs, which would often cause great psychological pressure on the enemy

Anyway, if you are targeted by them, it will be a blood mold, even if you want to run, it is difficult, the speed of the airship can reach a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour even at low altitude, even if you ride a sweaty BMW, you can't run the airship. And no matter how good the endurance of Mongolian horses is, there will always be times when they are exhausted, and they will eventually be chased and annihilated by airships.

The Mongolian tribal cavalry running in all directions, of course, would not be so slaughtered, they organized one after another, and frantically rushed towards the Sixth Cavalry Brigade. But the cavalry of the Far Eastern Army did not entangle with them, and several phalanxes retreated.

More than 20 heavy machine guns were gradually revealed, and the Mongolian cavalry that rushed over once again experienced a stormy baptism, and were beaten all over the field by fierce crossfire, and turned around and fled. They had long been frightened by those fierce battlefield lawn mowers, and now as soon as they heard the sound of "sudden", they suddenly lost their morale and fled frantically.

In only an hour since the Mongol cavalry attacked, more than 20,000 Mongol cavalry had lost nearly half of their soldiers and horses. Among them, the main ones were killed by more than 20 heavy machine guns during the group charge, and some were attacked by airship troops and cavalry units, and many were caused by the chaos and the Mongols fighting each other because of the chaos, rushing to flee for their lives.

On the battlefield in the era of cold weapons, once the morale collapses, no matter how many people there are, they will be scattered and can only be slaughtered by others. In those years, the army of the Song Dynasty and the army of the Ming Dynasty were herded by nomads, and it was also a frequent occurrence.

Now the cavalry of the Mongolian tribes trapped here is in this state. More than 10,000 men and horses were in chaos, and they were all defeated soldiers of various tribes, and they could not be kneaded together at all, so they could only fight separately, and they had basically lost their combat effectiveness.

As some people dismounted and knelt down to surrender, more people began to follow suit, in fact, most people had already come up with the idea of surrendering, and now someone took the lead, which instantly caused most people to blindly obey. The entire battlefield was full of Mongolian tribal cavalry kneeling on the ground, all with blank faces, like soulless walking corpses. (To be continued.) )
