Tsarist Empire: Please call me Tsarist Majesty
Chapter 023
“Dada! Dada! ”
Tens of thousands of Cossack cavalrymen, brandishing sabers in their hands, charged the defense line of Grand Duke Mikhail’s army.
The horse’s hooves trampled on the ground, making a dense sound, and converged together like thunder.
Cavalry has always been the main combat arm of the Russian Imperial Army, especially the Cossack cavalry, which is extremely brave and has almost become a nightmare in the eyes of other European countries.
After the defeat of the infantry and the Guards, Grand Duke Nicholas could only pin his hopes on these Cossack cavalry.
He hoped to be able to rely on the speed advantage of the cavalry to quickly pass through the dense fire blockade of Grand Duke Mikhail’s army and break through the defensive line. Open a safe passage for the Guards behind.
However, he was soon disappointed.
“Fire! Fire with all your might, don’t skimp on ammunition! ”
Grand Duke Mikhail’s army, faced with this situation, also immediately reacted.
A large number of low-ranking officers, shouting orders.
On the defensive line, all weapons were meeting and firing at maximum rate of fire, frantically pouring bullets on the Cossack cavalry. It was hoped that intensive firepower would be able to stop the attack of these Cossack cavalry.
After all, cavalry can advance much faster than infantry. If you are not careful, you may cause the defense line to be broken.
“Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
Thousands of howitzers and field guns opened heavy fire. At the same time, a large number of mortars of various calibers are also firing at the maximum rate of fire.
Dense shells rained down, and dense explosions rang out continuously.
A large number of Cossack cavalry were on their backs during the explosion. Many Cossack cavalrymen, falling under their horses, were directly trampled into meat sludge.
“Dadada! Bang! Bang! Bang! ”
Heavy machine guns and light machine guns, as well as the rifles in the hands of the soldiers, were also firing frantically.
Dense bullets poured into these Cossack cavalrymen, shooting them and the horses beneath them.
Although the charge speed of these Cossack cavalry was very fast, they were still unable to advance under such intensive fire.
Especially the distance of more than a hundred meters in front of the defense line seems to have become a death forbidden zone. No matter how many Cossack cavalry rushed here, they all fell one after another and lost their lives.
Many war horses were also shot and fell to the ground, emitting a cry of sorrow, which made this battlefield like hell.
“Your Excellency, Grand Duke Nicholas has nothing to do, even the most elite Cossack cavalry has been sent. Our firepower is still strong and can fully withstand their attack. As long as we resist them, we will win this battle! Lieutenant General Brushilov’s face was full of excitement.
Grand Duke Mikhail nodded: “Very well, it seems that we are not far from victory.” Prepare our cavalry. As soon as the order is given, it is immediately possible to attack! ”
“Yes, Your Excellency!” Lieutenant General Brushilov replied.
He also knew that after they resisted the attack of Grand Duke Nicholas’s army, it would be their turn to launch a counterattack. This war will soon be able to distinguish the winner and the loser.
Grand Duke Nicholas kept holding binoculars and watching the charge of the Cossack cavalry. Countless soldiers of the Guards in gray military uniforms followed behind the Cossack cavalry.
However, Grand Duke Nicholas’ face at the moment was blue with iron. He never expected that even if the Cossack cavalry was dispatched, they would still not be able to break through the rebel defenses.
“Damn! How is this possible? How could Mikhail build such a powerful army in just a few years? This is not scientific at all! “Grand Duke Nicholas could hardly accept everything in front of him.
However, this is the truth, and he cannot accept it.
“Your Excellency, what should we do now?” Grand Duke Agleni couldn’t help but look worried.
They have exhausted all means and cannot win. This makes the current situation undoubtedly very bad for them.
Grand Duke Nicholas was silent, or rather, now he does not know what to do.
Time passed little by little, and the Cossack cavalry suffered extremely heavy losses under intensive fire. This caused the morale of these Cossack cavalry to quickly fall to the freezing point.
Although the provincial Cossack cavalry fought bravely, they were not fools!
In the past, they fought enemies, but now they themselves have become the target of slaughter. This naturally made the will to fight of many Cossack cavalry shaken.
It didn’t take long for Cossack cavalry to turn their horses and flee the battlefield.
However, they collided with the guards following them, causing chaos on the battlefield.
This directly caused more Cossack cavalry to begin to flee.
Grand Duke Mikhail and Lieutenant General Brushilov were keenly aware of this.
Grand Duke Nicholas’s army seems to be on the verge of collapse. So, the time is ripe for them to fight back.
“Order the cavalry and immediately throw in a counterattack!” Grand Duke Mikhail ordered.
“Yes, Your Excellency!” Lieutenant General Brushilov replied.
