"Spread out in formation, a company flanked the enemy from the right side in a roundabout way. The Russian battalion commander commanded with a saber in his hand, and through the binoculars he could clearly see the machine guns peeking out of the roof of the cars. He didn't know what this unknown matter was, but he knew that this machine gun was not a vegetarian, and if the appearance of artillery made the cavalry not beautiful. The machine gun completely swept the cavalry out of the stage of history. Of course, the Russian battalion commander did not have such a high theoretical literacy, but he still knew the power of the machine gun.

"It would be nice if there were a few mortars." At the moment before the attack, the Russian ** official said in his heart. However, this can only be said, because he understands very well that as a ranger, it is taboo to carry too many weapons that should not be carried. And in his opinion, these iron boxes can be destroyed with explosives or grenades when they get close. It's just that there are a few more deaths, and the last thing that the Russian aristocratic officers are afraid of is the dead! These grey-skinned animals are meant to be consumed and used as a stepping stone for their promotion!

After a chaotic formation...... The Russian cavalry battalion finally formed an offensive formation, 2 squads in a platoon, each platoon kept a distance of 50 meters in front and back, and then began to move slowly forward under the leadership of the non-commissioned officer, they needed to accelerate at a distance of 2 km, and then break through the opponent's fire net in the shortest possible time. Originally, the best impact distance of the cavalry was 1Km, but considering the dense machine guns of the opponent, the Russian commander still extended the sortie distance a little ..........

At the call of the commander, the Russian cavalry moved forward slowly, and they did not draw their swords or pick up their carbines. Instead, he took out a variety of homemade or distributed grenades. The fate of the soldiers in the first few rows must have been miserable, rushing forward to meet the bullets and throwing grenades, which was almost certain death, and after desperately trying to open the way for their comrades behind them, they were either killed by bullets, or fell off their horses and trampled into pulp by their comrades behind them. But this time, fate played a little joke on them, and the first to suffer was not their meat shields and cannon fodder. It's the one who is ready to pick peaches in the back!

At a distance of 2Km, it is difficult to hit even a heavy machine gun, and that's right. But the Assault Tiger Task Force also has mortars and 1-pounder rapid-fire guns! The latter has an extremely fast rate of fire and extremely expensive ammunition, so naturally it cannot be used lightly. But the 82mm mortar was enough to suppress these defenseless, densely formed cavalry.

Bang, bang, bang. With a dull sound of artillery, black objects flew up from the Assault Tiger Task Force's circular position. This was followed by the piercing screams of shells slicing through the air. Because the initial velocity of the mortar is slow, the sound comes first, and the shells arrive later, after hearing the sound of the cannon, some soldiers hurriedly want to dodge, but under the constraints of the formation, the blind movement of a single person not only can not get life. It will also make the whole formation chaotic, and the cavalry that loses the formation will lose at least half of its combat power ..........

The shells quickly exploded in formation. And it's a grenade. High-speed 3mm diameter prefabricated steel balls rained down on the already scattered cavalry ranks. Under a dense rain of bullets. The horsemen, who had been imposing a second before, were swept down one by one like wheat harvesters. Gunsmoke, flames, dead people, and wounded soldiers became the main part of this picture scroll called "Battlefield". Under a series of mortar strikes. The cavalry phalanx, which had been formed, was cut off from the middle. The entire cavalry formation had lost the ability to charge continuously.

"The flank cavalry and the front row cavalry attacked. The rear cavalry bypassed the wounded. The Russian battalion commander kept firing guns while directing the cavalry that had been bombarded by mortar shells. The company commanders and platoon commanders also tried their best to gather their scattered subordinates, avoid shelling key areas, and then regroup and prepare for battle.

"The other side dispersed, so that the artillerymen fought slower, and we didn't have many shells with us." Xu Jingrong looked at the battlefield in the distance, and said in a deep voice, the shelling just now looked very powerful from the scene, but after the other party reacted. As soon as the cavalry dispersed, the lethality of the mortars with low muzzle velocity was greatly reduced, especially after the start of the charge, the power of the mortars was very small. It was the machine guns and the 1-pounder rapid-fire cannon that could finally put an end to the cavalry assault! …………。

"Woohoo" accompanied by the sound of the trumpet of the cavalry charge, and the remaining 300 or so Russian cavalry rushed towards the assault tiger contingent like a gray tide. In order to avoid shelling, the opposing side used a dispersed formation. But this increased the striking area, so that more machine guns could use firepower.

Accompanied by the roar of machine guns. The 10 heavy machine guns and 10 light machine guns on the 10 combat vehicles that can be used on the front really give the Russians a real understanding of what a rain of bullets is. Accompanied by the bullet casings coming out of the shell throwing mouth, the 20 machine guns intertwined into a dense fire king to cover the opponent. The distance of less than 2,000 meters from the starting position to the chariot formation has truly become an insurmountable obstacle. Under the dense array of bullets like flying locusts, the formation of the cavalry impact was torn apart. Both frontal assault units and flank detour units were shattered by machine-gun fire.

In just a few minutes, the cavalry charge of more than 300 people was disintegrated. The battlefield was filled with a strong smell of blood. The horses and soldiers who died in the battle lay on the ground, mixed with the groans of the dying, the situation of the cavalry battle armored vehicles that originally appeared in the second war was nearly 40 years ahead .........of schedule, although the combat vehicles of this era could not even be called armored Alto, but in this encounter still the unsuspecting Russian cavalry killed the corpses all over the field.

"Everyone, get ready...... Accelerate your way to your destination. Lao Maozi suffered a loss, and if he ran into it again, it would not be so easy to deal with. Looking at the Russian cavalry in the distance, Xu Jingrong wiped his sweat and said, to be honest, he didn't expect to win this battle so easily. In order to prevent the opponent from rushing up, the 1-pounder cannon is ready. As a result, I didn't expect that the seemingly ferocious Russian cavalry didn't even rush through the outermost machine-gun position. But after the victory, he did not dare to be careless at all. He didn't think that his 100-10 people could eat the cavalry, but this cavalry had few people and was too well equipped. If you run into the elite of the Russian cavalry, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to deal with.

"Practice has proved that simply relying on cavalry to hit machine gun positions is basically an act of seeking death." In the bumpy car, Xu Jingrong said matter-of-factly. "So if the Russians come up again, they will definitely not do it."

"Head, you're talking nonsense, let me say something nutritious." Chen Ming pouted and said.

"I'm here to liven up the atmosphere!" Xu Jingrong quibbled.

"First of all, combat vehicles cannot be used purely for defensive operations, which is contrary to our definition of a mobile unit. Defending means losing the lead, and while you can make the most of your firepower, you should be well aware that our so-called armor can only withstand bullets and shrapnel. If you really get hit by a 75mm rapid-fire gun and a medium-caliber mortar gun, or miss closely. It was almost certain death. So, we have to be mobile and offensive. Reduces the chance of artillery kills. Chen Ming said..........

"At the same time, we cannot attack the enemy's well-fortified areas, and in the case of not being able to passively hold on or attack the opponent's positions, all we have left to do is mobile combat and sneak attacks. Avoiding all weapons that threaten us as much as possible, and looking for fighters in the enemy's lines of communication or flanks, this war has proven that there is no advantage at all in facing cavalry without artillery sabers and rifles, even if you have a few small 1-pounder or 3-pounder guns. As long as it can be detected, it will not be a threat to our army, which has the advantage of range and projection. Xu Jingrong added, don't look at the usual hanging, but if you really talk about business, it is still very level.

Xu Jingrong's words are very reasonable, the Russians are not equipped with small artillery with a high rate of fire such as the Bao Yao, because it is indeed very difficult for the Russian army to have such an expensive number of weapons and equipment. In the eyes of the Russians, what they needed was heavy artillery, suppressing the enemy's attack, and then drowning the opponent with a tidal wave of infantry. Therefore, although the remaining 47 guns and 57 guns can easily penetrate the opponent, because of the rate of fire and the gap in protection, there is no way to face such a rudimentary tank group in a non-ambush situation. The biggest advantage of the 1-pounder gun is that it can shoot indirectly. Moreover, the rate of fire is extremely fast, and in the face of stationary targets, it can quickly complete the comparison and coverage. During the First Sino-Japanese War, there were many incidents in which Japanese artillery positions were cut off, and I did not know where the shells came from. And because of the protection gap, the air-burst 1-pound shell can completely slaughter the gunner quickly.........

Of course, this situation is only suitable for encounters, if it is an attack, once all kinds of small cannons are camouflaged, they can be fatal to the chariots that rush in, not to mention now, it is the Spanish Civil War period in Xu Jie's plane, and a general commented on the relationship between war defense artillery and combat vehicles: "It is not much better for tanks to impact positions with battle defense guns than to use infantry to shock positions guarded by machine guns!" "Even without the use of anti-aircraft artillery, just all kinds of mines can make these armored Alto immortals want to die! Of course, if you count the possible human bombs, this primitive chariot is even more lifeless.

As a result, after a long day of discussion, the officers of the Assault Tiger Task Force agreed that the current tank unit still has to carry its tail as a man. Avoid all hard walnuts and specialize in skirmishes and guerrilla warfare. A fierce assault was held on the cavalry and logistics units, which lacked heavy weapons. Last but not least, it is essential to get to Ulanqab as soon as possible. Because of the drag of the logistics troops, their own convoys are too vulnerable. Once you lose the ammunition and accessories of the logistics fleet, these hard-to-maintain war machines are just a pile of scrap metal!
