Nogrove was so proud that he rode slowly, and as a Cossack cavalry major, Nogrove was energetic and savage. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 His Excellency, the Major General who led all the Cossacks, asked Marshal Suvorov for this precious opportunity, and tens of thousands of Cossacks began to gallop across the Polish plains, chasing the retreating German soldiers.

Not far away, several Cossack cavalrymen, with spears in their hands much longer than the lancers of other European countries, provoked a German soldier. Norgrove's cavalry battalion had just routed a German army after the retreat had been interrupted. Although the Germans resisted very resolutely and stubbornly, it was difficult for the Germans to form any effective means of defense in the retreat.

In this era, there was actually a method of infantry forming a hollow phalanx and using bayonets to fight against cavalry, but this required very high training for infantry, and most of the German troops were rookies. In the current training requirements, there are more pursuit of straggler lines and columns for charging, accuracy of shooting, etc., and there are not so high requirements for things like hollow phalanxes.

In fact, the hollow phalanx was almost something that should be eliminated, and in the eyes of the Germans, when they encountered cavalry, they should be equipped with machine guns and fire vigorously. But in fact, a few days ago, in order to play this great drama of "defeat and retreat", the German army had already transferred its baggage and precious heavy weapons away. This also left the broken German soldiers lacking these effective heavy weapons, and the Cossacks came and went like the wind, and before the Germans were fully ready, they had already rushed into the ranks of the German army.

This also reflects the inexperience of most German officers, and even if they deliberately retreat on their own initiative, they actually have to pay attention to order. The more common method is to carry out alternate relays, that is, the soldiers of Division A withdraw first, withdraw to a place and then deploy defenses, Unit B or other troops cross Division A, and Division A meets the enemy, and Division B retreats to the next predetermined location for defense, and Division A withdraws again, so that the cycle is reversed, greatly enhancing the survival rate of the retreating troops.

Of course, Yue Zhenfu's order was to lure the enemy deeper, and such a rhythmic and organized retreat was likely to make the enemy hesitate and suspicious.

If the Tang army retreats, it will pay more attention to the use of reconnaissance forces to keep abreast of the enemy's pursuit. Retreating like the Germans with their heads down, not knowing at all that the enemy has touched it, is the most dangerous situation.

As Nogrove's troops slaughtered the German soldiers, Nogrove smiled at the left and right: "Can you believe it, our allies, the Prussians, have lost their homeland by such an enemy, and are now lost dogs." ”

Someone said: "Maybe these Germans are not weak, but we are too strong!" ”

The crowd was filled with the sound of Cossacks laughing loudly, and the galloping cavalrymen were constantly stabbing and slashing German soldiers with their spears and sabers.

Nogrov shouted, "Cut off my neck, go back and pull off all the cotton coats on these people, it's getting colder and colder these days, and the old men of the military quartermaster look down on us Cossacks and don't give us priority to provide warm clothing, these German cotton coats are very good, thick and warm." ”

His adjutant laughed and said: "These hairy boys are fine, not only will they pull off these coats, but as long as they have something valuable, they will definitely be clean." ”

Norgrove laughed heartily when he heard this, and he was not ashamed of it in the slightest. From the beginning of their formation, the Cossacks were not considered a regular branch of the army, in fact, the Cossack army had not only cavalry, but also a certain number of infantry. The Cossack cavalry was not a unified branch either, some of them used spears, some of them used firearms, and everything was of all kinds. Of course, the most impressive thing about the Cossacks was their mobility and bravery.

However, the Cossacks were not a pleasant group, they were actually a group of bandits, and even friendly troops hated the Cossacks. Every time they swept a place, they brought devastation, robbery, killing, and all kinds of atrocities, and poor military discipline made Napoleon and other generals praise the fighting power of the Cossacks on the one hand, and gnashed their teeth at the Cossacks on the other. Even Suvorov and other Tsarist generals looked down on the Cossacks.

Nogrove said at this time: "This war is the best occasion for our Cossacks to show their strength. All the credit belongs to our Cossacks, cheer up the boys, and we will continue the pursuit after that, the Germans have many infantry, slow to move, not our opponents, as long as we defeat the Germans, the greatest honor of this war belongs to our Cossacks! ”

The adjutant continued: "The biggest benefit is also ours!" ”

Not far away was a German who had been shot but was still panting, and Nogrove didn't look at him at all, and with a wave of his whip, the horse galloped and trampled heavily on the German's back.

A group of German soldiers threw down their rifles in horror and raised their hands high, but the Cossacks under Nogrov had no sense of accepting the prisoners at all, and they laughed and rode up, their spears pierced into the bodies of the Germans.

……

The Germans suffered heavy losses in the retreat as a result of the Cossack pursuit, and although the Germans were able to resist a burst of Cossacks with improvised trenches and fortifications, as soon as they began to move, the Cossacks stuck to them like meaty flies and crushed them.

The commander of the German army, Jaeger, was furious and began to command his soldiers to counterattack, but when he left a brigade of troops and relied on trenches to block the Cossacks, the main force of the Russian-Prussian army of Suvorov, which followed behind, came up again, and relied on the absolute superiority of the German army to destroy this German army.

Jaeger knew what kind of trouble he was in, Suvorov was also worthy of being a world-famous general, when he really broke through, the speed of the Russian army was quite amazing, the Germans were chased by the Cossacks, and they could only form a counterattack in place, and the Russian army pressed up at this time and swallowed the Germans directly. In such an unfavorable situation, the morale of the German army declined very much, and the German army, which was not afraid of sacrifice, also wavered in the face of the attack of a large number of Russian troops.

Yeager had no choice but to send a telegram to Yue Zhenfu for help, and he could only order his troops to retreat quickly, and he could escape as much as he could. And the German infantry in motion became the best prey for the Cossack cavalry. The Cossacks, like wolves chasing sheep, cornered Jaeger and his troops! (To be continued.) )
