Chapter 1239 Decisive Battle in Tianshan (6)

On the battlefield, there were rumbling gunfire, smoke filled the sand and stones flying.

The target of the military formation was large. The Russian army hit the battlefield with one shot and hit the battlefield, causing great losses.

The shells shot in from the west, penetrated the square formation, and flew out from the east.

One shell was hit, and at least eight rows of gangs were knocked over by shells. Including the auxiliary soldiers, medical soldiers and artillery in the center, the losses were even greater.

Among the three formation groups that the Gan Army was bombarded by artillery, the soldiers suffered heavy losses, and many infantry were torn to pieces by shells, causing blood mist to rise.

The musketeer in the queue held the gun and squatted, his face splattered by the blood and flesh of his comrades. His heart was almost broken, and the blood and sweat were mixed and left behind. The soldiers blinked and gritted their teeth to support him.

At this time, the Mongolian cavalry braved the artillery fire in the military formation and rushed over. The military was in ruins and would definitely be difficult to resist the impact of the enemy cavalry.

Faced with the huge pressure from the attack of ten thousand horses, the soldiers of the Gan Army held muskets and swallowed their saliva, and did not dare to look at the gaps hit by the shells around them, fearing that they would not be able to help but flee backwards.

"Kill!" The Mongolian cavalry waved their scimitars and screamed strangely, like a high-speed array, thrusting towards them.

In the outer formation group of the Gan Army, the officer heard the order to change the formation from the central army and quickly blew a whistle, "Change the formation!"

The Russian artillery smashed the square array into pieces and quickly unfolded the array in order to exert the maximum firepower and give the cavalry greater damage.

At this time, the square formation unfolded, and Russian artillery bombarded. Even if it hit, it could only smash through three rows of soldiers, which immediately reduced the role of Tsarist Russian artillery.

However, before the Gan Army soldiers completely changed their formation, the enemy cavalry had already rushed to the front of the formation.

"Rocket! Musket!" The officer roared loudly: "Shoot!"

Flames rose in front of the Gan Army formation, hundreds of tigers rushed out with arrows, and muskets shot "bang bang bang" and made the Mongolian cavalry fall down their horses, but at this time, the impact of the Mongolians could no longer be stopped.

In front of the Ganjun formation, the Mongolian cavalry finally broke into the Ganjun line with a force of ten thousand pounds. The speeding war horses had a huge impact force and instantly killed the unfolded line and then stabbed them out diagonally.

The horizontal formation can maximize the power of the musket volley, but it is not deep and is easily torn through the defense line by the cavalry. However, the cavalry rushing in will soon be shot by the internal phalanx, and the cavalry can only quickly break out again.

"Okay!" Seeing the cavalry under the cover of artillery, the horn-cutting tactic was successful, Sengge couldn't help but cheer.

After the Mongolian cavalry stabbed out diagonally, they made a detour and prepared to score twice to completely destroy a corner of the formation. Then, as the artillery extended, they broke through the hollow formation group of the Gan Army from the outside layer by layer like peeling onions.

Sengge and many Mongolian generals were all excited, as if they had obtained the secret of victory.

After the development of firearms, the tactics of cavalry shooting and harassing were quickly eliminated by the battlefield.

In front of infantry with long-range continuous firepower output, cavalry raided around the formation, which was equivalent to becoming a living target for infantry, and ramming around the formation was almost like a death.

If the cavalry wants to defeat the infantry, they must cavalry and shoot and then launch an attack.

Now the tactics of riding and shooting chasing formations cannot be used, and the combat effectiveness of the cavalry is immediately greatly reduced, and gradually gave up the position of king of the battlefield.

Sengge's eyes shone. Today he suddenly discovered that the combination of artillery and cavalry could be used to bring the Mongolian cavalry back to its peak position.

More than a hundred years later, Napoleon was good at using artillery and cavalry to sweep across Europe.

In the army formation group, Gao Huan stimulated his cheeks, and he had already become serious. He observed the situation on the battlefield and knew that the enemy artillery cavalry could not be coordinated. He roared immediately: "Cavals attack and raid the enemy artillery formation!"

On the battlefield, just after a round of attacks, the Gan Army cavalry retreating to the flank heard the military order, and Yaksa gritted her teeth and said, "Return to the Han cavalry to charge!"

The Han cavalry returned to the two wings, activated their war horses one after another, raised their spears and came out of the formation. The 20,000 horses turned into a torrent of steel and directly drove the Russian artillery formation.

This made Sengge brow raise his eyebrows and hurriedly said to Rekov: "Hello Grand Duke, only the Russian infantry can protect the artillery formation!"

Junggar also had infantry troops, but his strength was average. Faced with the Gan Army cavalry directly raiding the artillery formation, Sengge could only rely on Tsarist Russian musketeers and spearmen.

Rekov was not vague. He knew that the coalition forces now had gained certain advantages with their numerous cavalry advantages and artillery cooperation.

The key to this battle was to maintain the artillery and cavalry coordinated tactics of the coalition forces, then use artillery to bombard the infantry formation of the army, and then the cavalry charged.

Now the army is very passive, without forming hollow formation groups, and thin lines are difficult to resist the charge of Mongolian superior cavalry.

If the hollow formation group is arranged, it is difficult for the Gan Army infantry to move and can only stay where they are smashed. Moreover, the hollow formation group of the Gan Army is arranged, and cannons are difficult to use in centralized use. They can only be scattered in the outer arrays and cannot be pushed out like a coalition force to launch artillery.

Rekov nodded, and ten thousand Russian troops rushed forward to guard the artillery formation. In order to buy time for the Russian troops, Sengge roared again, "Cabinets, intercept them!"

The coalition forces had 110,000 people and nearly 60,000 cavalrymen. Under the cover of artillery, they besieged a hollow formation group composed of 30,000 soldiers.

After more than 50,000 Tsarist Russian troops went to guard the cannon formation, there were still 40,000 people left by Sengge, of which more than 30,000 were cavalry.

With a command, the coalition central army rushed out 20,000 cavalry and rushed forward like galloping cavalry.

"Kill!" Jaxa screamed angrily, the Jurchen general pulled the bowstring, and the cavalry behind him also set off their bows.

Although they were incorporated by the Han Chao, most of these naturalized Jurchens and Mongolians were not used to using muskets and chose to use bows and arrows.

At this time, the Mongolian cavalry who had just stepped out of the formation and raised their speed, raised their heads and caught up with the Guihan cavalry. Neither side showed any sign of stopping and rushed straight towards the other side.

At the same time, the grassland athletes are now in different camps. The cavalry of the two armies rolls up rolling yellow sand and launches a shocking impact.

With a "swooshing" sound, a scattered locusts rose from the cavalry formation, and the Mongolian cavalry opposite immediately fell like beans.

The Guihan cavalry suffered minimal losses because of their equipment with breastplate and extremely strong defense equipment. However, before they could have time to be happy, the two armies had already collided.

The horse spear thrusts, the battle knife flew, the blunt weapon swung, the two cavalry collided violently, the sound of weapons attacking, screams, the neighing of the war horses, and the interweaving of various sounds, making people burst into blood and almost crazy.

At the moment when the cavalry collided with the impact, the cavalry of the two armies fell off their horses, and the cavalry of the army dispersed the Mongolian cavalry with their equipment advantage, killing through the enemy groups and out of the formation.

At this time, the Ganjun cavalry were covered with dead bodies and wailing war horses everywhere, but the Ganjun rushed towards the enemy's artillery formation before they had time to check the results of the battle.

In order to bombard the Gan Army infantry formation group, the Tsarist Russian artillery moved forward. They saw the overwhelming number of Returning Han cavalry, broke through the obstacles, appeared in front of them, and immediately panicked!

At this time, they didn't care about shelling the Ganjun formation group anymore, and turned one after another, aiming the artillery at the Ganjun cavalry!

At the same time, Tsarist Russian soldiers were also hurriedly forming formations, intending to protect their own artillery formations.

The horse's hooves roared, and the Iron Cavalry of the Reincarnation of the Mongolian cavalry group had arrived.

At this time, as the Tsarist Russian infantry gathered around the artillery, the target of the artillery array suddenly became larger. The artillery displayed in the periphery of the Gan Army finally had a fixed and huge target in addition to bombarding the enemy cavalry array.

The artillery and cavalry coordination tactics of the Ganjun also began.
