As an offensive and advantageous side, the Russian offensive could not be completely stopped, and the prince did not really intend to fight for incoming land, because it was impossible. After choosing to block several offensive troops, most of the Russian cavalry broke through the line and rushed towards the depth! The first large-scale cavalry attack in the history of World War I finally kicked off&1t;/p>

The Russians have not forgotten the Przemesir region that was lost again in the last battle. This is an important transportation hub in Galicia and the western gate of the Lviv Fortress District. The Russians are determined to win this time. Even if there is a relatively complete field fortification here during the pre-war investigation, they still cannot change the Russians' determination.&1t;/p>

Major General Arkady, the commander of the Fourth Assault Cavalry Division, evaluated the current form with his chief of staff in a tent. After the battle began yesterday, they advanced 30 kilometers in a day and night, breaking through a cordon and two lines of defense, and had already entered the rear of the enemy. This was achieved by his deliberate control of the troops' offense. The reason was very simple. He needed to wait for the machine guns and artillery behind him! Although his troops were equipped with additional horses and vehicles, due to the horse's miserable digestion system, a large amount of food and grass itself is an important factor in limiting the movement of cavalry. As for you to gather the food and grass for tens of thousands of horses on Austro-Hungarian land? Wash and go to bed. Relying on logistics is much more reliable than temporary recruitment on the battlefield!&1t;/p>

"The two Austro-Hungarian cavalry divisions have already gone around our flanks, and there are also three regiments of infantry following behind. Once we start attacking the front line of defense, those guys will attack us like hungry wolves. So, I decided to fight a field battle first, and wait for the subsequent attacking regiment to arrive before attacking the defense line." Major General Arkadi said.&1t;/p>

"Agree, instead of attacking a tightly defended position, it is better to eat the opponent's mobile forces first. If only one line of defense is left, it will be easy to break through." An officer said.&1t;/p>

"It is said that this time there was a company of crickets and even wasp chariots behind the Austro-Hungarian cavalry."&1t;/p>

"It's okay, we have everything ready. If we can't deal with those annoying iron boxes, we will never be able to fight this battle." Arkati said confidently.&1t;/p>

There is absolutely a reason why the Russians are called fighting nations. Although they may not be able to create particularly fine combat equipment, they are also unique in the use of military power. Perhaps the Russian army of the same size cannot defeat the troops of other countries. However, relying on various cooperation and huge numbers, the Russians can always play new tricks. Especially this time, it was personally conducted by the famous Russian general Borusinov in history, so the level will naturally not be low!&1t;/p>

Just less than 10 kilometers away from the Russian Fourth Assault Cavalry Division, Major General Feng Yulian, who was in charge of support, was also confidently prepared to fight his opponent tomorrow! From the perspective of organization, he had two cavalry divisions, and from the perspective of military strength, after counting the three infantry regiments and one artillery battalion in the latter, his troops were close to the number of one infantry division! More importantly, he was also equipped with an independent armored assault company mixed with crickets and hornets, and the number of both chariots was 8!&1t;/p>

"The two cavalry divisions are deployed on the flank for encirclement. The selected elite infantry cooperates with the armored troops to assault the front, and then hold enough reserves and machine guns in their hands to defend against possible flank impacts from the opponent. In addition to our artillery advantages, it should be almost the same?" Major General Yulian said in his heart.&1t;/p>

When the sun rose, the first large-scale battle between the two sides finally broke out! "Prepare to join the battle!" After the order was issued, the Cossacks, who were once famous for their proficient horse skills, first reacted to dismount and handed the horses to the auxiliary personnel for uniform disposal. They also picked up the Mosinnagan short rifle in their hands. Some soldiers also had a semi-automatic rifle produced in Germany. It is said that this was a smuggling goods bought from Germany by their parents with their own money...&1t;/p>

After several months of training, these former heroes had become accustomed to participating in the battle as infantry, and behind them were machine gun four-wheeled carriages! These vehicles towed by horses were quickly arranged in the appropriate position. The machine gun crew erected the defensive steel plates at the rear of the vehicle body, and added water to the machine gun cooling water barrel, loaded ammunition, and adjusted the machine gun ruler. Preparations were made before shooting.&1t;/p>

The Russians' layout on both wings was clearly preparing to fight a defensive battle. On the front, some huge figures appeared in front of people and entered the prepared positions. These things made the Russian soldiers who were already afraid of being beaten by tanks relax a little.&1t;/p>

"They are here!" Xie Miao Mikhainovic Budoni, who was the commander of the cavalry, said as he looked at the figure gradually clear in the distance. The roar of motives came out from a distance, and objects moving like iron boxes lined up in a horizontal front. They did not move quickly, but they felt a sense of depression. Behind and next to them, infantrymen of about a battalion were driven from the appearance of these vehicles. This was the Bavarian chariot that was feared by the cavalry predecessors?&1t;/p>

"I hope our elephants can block the insects of the Germans." Budonnie replaced the semi-automatic rifle in Bavaria with a new 2o magazine. This is a semi-automatic rifle he bought after graduating from St. Petersburg Cavalry Academy in 19o8 and spent half a year on his salary. Judging from the gun number, this gun should be a batch of rifles ordered from Bavaria before the Russo-Japanese War. It used Russian bullets and was equipped with three original 2o long magazines. Russians like this kind of thing that continues to have strong firepower, but the long magazines produced by Russian characters are not strong enough and are easy to deform, and the internal springs are easily worn and lose elasticity. So unless there are original German magazines, he would rather use ordinary 1o magazines.&1t;/p>

The entire Austro-Hungarian Army unfolded with a wide front. They were very confident in the tanks in their hands and the attacking positions were very forward. Even the positions of 1o5mm howitzers and other artillery were in advance to provide better fire support. Everything was carried out according to the script. The 75mm cannon and 1o5mm howitzers carried out the initial fire preparations, and a grenade exploded on the Russian position.&1t;/p>

"They underestimated the enemy, and we won half of this battle." Major General Arkady said with a smile: "Even the Germans will not put most of their troops into sloppyly in the first round of attacks. Without absolute firepower advantages, it doesn't make much sense to invest too much in infantry. Let them see our new weapons!"&1t;/p>
Chapter completed!
