Chapter 636

Looking at the entire battlefield, there is a complex situation where canines and teeth intersect one layer after another.

Corps A surrounded the 70,000 Southern Federation Williamson Corps with more than 90,000 troops and beat them up. With superior weapons, they enveloped the enemy with more violent artillery fire and bullets, causing waves of death and bloody storms.

Although the situation is dominant, it does not turn into a victory.

This is like a dumpling with thin skin and big stuffing. The Williamson Legion has the ability to counterattack at any time and breaks south and even turns around and bites hard.

Therefore, the commander of the A Corps, Yuchi Shouzhuo, came to the front line to command, and responded promptly to the enemy's movements as if walking on thin ice, and did not dare to slacken at all.

After discovering the reinforcements of Victoria Corps, two cavalry divisions of Tiger and Leopard were immediately sent to block, harass, and delay the enemy reinforcements.

This will make the battlefield situation more complicated.

The lesson of the entire Livingston Cavalry Division of the Southern Federation Army was in front of us. The two cavalry divisions of Tiger and Leopard dare not go too deep. If they are mixed between two enemy heavy troops, when the heavy hammer is closed, it is when the cavalry division dies without a burial place.

Therefore, the two cavalry divisions set up a regiment-level sniper position in the middle area, one left and one right, and each side was on the periphery. The officers and soldiers got off the horse and dug trench to defend, using 60mm field guns, heavy machine guns and platoon guns to form a cross-fire network to prevent the Victorian Corps from continuing to approach.

Other officers and soldiers of the Cavalry Division took advantage of the high mobility of their horses under their seats to launch harassment operations from the middle and rear of the enemy's marching queue, fired cold guns and cannons, and carried out sneak attacks of small platoon-level troops, delaying the progress of the Victorian Corps.

You can't say that this kind of fighting makes the Victoria Corps very uncomfortable.

The harassed forces of the Cavalry Division were mounted with two 60mm field guns from a distance, and several heavy machine guns shot hard. If they were sent to drive them away, if they were less, they would be delivered to deliver vegetables, and if they were more, they might not be able to beat them.

Because the opponent came with two cavalry divisions, each with a quota of about 8,000 troops. Even if one regiment was missing, the remaining total force reached about 1.2, which is much larger than the scale of more than 7,000 people of the Macbeth Cavalry Division under the Victoria Corps.

The total strength of the entire Victoria Corps expanded to more than 68,000 people. In addition to leaving the Heavy Artillery Division, an Infantry Division and two Infantry Regiments on the defense line facing Beilun City, a total of about 15,000 troops were defended, and the rest of the troops were all coming to support. There was only one single cavalry division under his command.

If there is a real fight, it is not certain who will annihilate who will?

If you keep the marching without asking, and you will speed up the marching, and there are two stumbling blocks in front of you, will you be forcibly crossing through the fire?

How many casualties would there be?

The Williamson Legion was still in a Henry Cavalry Division, with a total force of nearly 10,000 people. It was originally a mobile force that protected the right wing of the legion, but now it was huddled deep in the encirclement and did not dare to come out. They were frightened by the tragic encounter of the entire Livingston Cavalry Division, and they no longer dared to charge in the rain of bullets.

Today, the Leopard Cavalry Division achieved a brilliant victory on the battlefield, and proved a truth with the numerous corpses of the Livingston Cavalry Division; traditional cavalry charges have no way to survive on the battlefield of thermal weapons.

Since the prevalence of platoon tactics in the 18th century, the cavalry legions that once traverse Eurasian continent have reached the end. The dragon cavalry or breastplate cavalry divisions that the French emperor Napoleon relied on to become famous can be regarded as horse-riding infantry.

Riding horses and raiding, dismounting and fighting.

It is the most prominent combat feature of the Dragoon Division in the Napoleon era in France. This is the best application example of the cavalry divisions in the thermal weapons era.

The Dragoon Division in the Napoleon era of France was very flexible in its organization. The cavalry division generally had 2 to 3 brigades, the brigade had two regiments, each regiment had 3 to 4 squadrons, and there was also a cavalry company under it.

Due to changes in combat conditions, the cavalry divisions range from 1 brigade to 5 brigades, and the number of people will also increase from more than 4,000 to tens of thousands

Theoretically, the French cavalry regiment had 800 to 1,200 people, but the number of people would drop during wartime, generally around 300 to 600. The number of people in the squadron ranged from 75 to 250, and the ups and downs were very violent.

In 1809, Napoleon's army had a total of 209 cavalry squadrons, with an average of 139 people per squadron, and a total of nearly 30,000 cavalrymen.

From 1812 to 1813, the squadrons under the Cavalry Regiment rose to 6 or even 8 squadrons, with each Cavalry Regiment reaching the upper limit of 1,200 people.

In the Russian army conquered by French Emperor Napoleon, General Walter's guard cavalry division had four brigades under his command, plus the division's direct artillery, the number was as high as 5,900, and many cavalry divisions in the legion were close to 5,000.

The cavalry division of the Ocean Kingdom was organized by the French Dragoon, but the brigade level was abolished and the large regime was directly used. Each cavalry division had five regiments, with a total force of about 8,200 to 8,600 people, and four cavalry regiments and one division-owned firepower regiment.

The division's firepower group is equipped with 18 60mm portable field artillery and 36 heavy machine guns, which have certain attack capabilities.

Faced with the encirclement and interception of two cavalry divisions, the Victoria Corps had to stop moving forward. On the one hand, they sent infantry troops to expand the peripheral defense line and counterattack the cavalry. On the other hand, they sent heavy troops to attack the two sniper positions set up by the opponent, and strive to move these two annoying stones as soon as possible.

So

The two sides set up a battlefield about 3 miles south of the encirclement, and fought again, making the current situation on the battlefield even more complicated.

Holding a heavyweight Southern Federation Corps in one hand, Corps A no longer had the same calmness as before. The advantage of the army's number instantly changed to a disadvantage, causing a quiet change in the battle situation. Commander Yuchi Shouzhu really complained and it was extremely difficult to deal with it.

There was no choice but to bite the bullet and hold on. He was extremely eager for the B Corps to come to help in time at this moment. The idea of ​​eating alone had already been left behind.

At this moment, both the enemy and us were trapped in the battlefield and neither could escape.

The Victoria Corps quickly came to reinforce the Victorian Corps without carrying heavy artillery, but there were many heavy machine guns on the carriage. They were unloaded as soon as possible and dragged them to the front position. They shot fiercely against the cavalry regiment sniped in front to cover the infantry's large-scale attack.

The battlefield was full of porridge, and bullets were flying in the air. The soldiers on both sides fell one after another in the cruel battle, gritting their teeth and persevering.

Half an hour later

When a sunset hangs high in the sky, the main force of the B Corps who came to reinforce appeared in the distance in black. The powerful military formation could not see the edge at a glance, which caused the soldiers of the A Corps in the battle to cheer like a tide, and couldn't help crying with joy.

At this moment, the B Corps was running forward, as if a large dark cloud was passing by the Consby plateau, rushing to the battlefield with the fearless aura of no other than me.

A torrent of iron armor appeared in the west of the battlefield, and it spread out all over the sky along the way, as if countless violent beasts were rushing into an unstoppable impact. This trembling and huge power instantly attracted the attention of both the enemy and us on the battlefield.

Oh, Shuaiga...what the hell is this?
