    ~Date:~December 05~

    As the Soviet Red Army launched a full-line attack, a series of "dong-dong-dong" mortars and roaring shells suddenly sounded from behind the coalition positions, startling Andrei, the regiment leader who was leading the charge.  Damn it, the coalition forces actually have so many small cannons hidden?  But Andre is also a veteran. He knows that when the brigade is charging, what they are really afraid of is machine guns rather than shelling. Moreover, the opponent's mortar shells roar past the heads of the remaining 1,000 people and fly directly to the rear.  There was an explosion in the second echelon team.

    This made the veteran Andre hesitate for a moment, just like his division commander, waving his pistol, cursing and shouting, he picked up his Red Army soldiers who were lying on the ground after hearing the sound of the artillery fire and continued to charge forward. To be honest, this guy  I wanted to stop and rest for a while to catch my breath. After all, sprinting for 150 meters under the hail of bullets from the coalition forces consumed a lot of energy. But when the two armies met, the brave prevailed. At this time, the second echelon led by the division commander attracted the opponent's pressure.  The artillery firepower rushes forward. When the opponent starts to fire at you, it will be even more difficult to rush forward!

    Under the urging and beatings of the regiment leader Andrei, more than 1,000 Soviet Red Army infantrymen lay on the ground panting like bellows. Gritting their teeth, they got up from the ground and continued to rush forward. Meanwhile, the soldiers on the opposite side of the coalition position were firing.  The number of Langning light machine guns suddenly increased, and the dozens of new tongues of fire on the coalition positions suddenly increased the density and lethality of the bullet rain.

    The Soviet Red Army soldiers who rushed in front were shot to the ground. While Andrei shouted to disperse and not to crowd together, an ominous premonition came to his mind. Damn it, the enemy actually has so many squads.  Machine guns, the squad machine guns that the opponent fired at the beginning of the attack were probably less than half of them. Now that the firepower density has increased so much, my team will suffer heavy casualties!

    However, it was obviously impossible to turn around and retreat at this time. Many Soviet Red Army soldiers could not lift their heads in front of the suddenly intensified rain of bullets from the coalition forces and had to lie on the ground to avoid the rain of bullets and the opponent's fire. More soldiers followed the inertia.  He continued to charge forward and was constantly knocked down. Although Andre himself was not hit by the bullets, one-third of his more than 1,000 men were mowed down by the opponent's machine guns in an instant.

    The number of soldiers who continued to charge with Andre dropped sharply to 600 or 700. Many of the soldiers turned pale and were clearly shaken. Andre looked back in his busy schedule and saw that the two regiments on the left and right flanks were equally charged during the charge.  Although they withstood the opponent's rain of mortar shells, no one retreated. At least close to 2,000 Red Army soldiers fell in the wilderness, but the remaining people continued to roar and shout "Ula~~~~  "go forward!

    Andre even saw the figure of the division commander Berklov waving a pistol and being surrounded by the crowd 100 meters behind him. The guy felt hot, turned around and roared with the last bit of his strength,

    "There are still the last 200 meters! Brave Red Army soldiers! Charge forward and victory will be ours! Follow me! Charge!"

    The pioneering actions of the division commander behind and the regiment commander in front of them inspired the attacking Soviet Red Army soldiers to their last bit of courage and physical strength. They gritted their teeth and got up from the ground, braving the hot and dense rain of bullets and continued to run forward, trying to catch up.  Rush into the enemy's position before the opponent's mortar attack can be transferred to your own head, and trample the White Guards Cavalry Regiment into powder!

    At this time, although the Soviet Red Army running at the front was constantly knocked down by the hail of bullets, the soldiers at the front were already close to 150 meters away from the opponent's position. They could almost even see the appearance of the enemy on the coalition position.  See clearly.

    Casualties also continued to appear on the coalition positions. The rifle bullets of the Soviet Red Army at such a short distance also had their due hit and lethality. Seeing that the fire was almost done, Sergey waved his hand and ordered:

    "The battalion's mortars opened fire across the board. Target the enemy's second-echelon crowd, and the light and heavy machine guns opened fire across the board!"

    The 32 81-caliber battalion mortars emitted a heart-stopping series of "dong-dong-dong-dong" shooting sounds, and the 3.6-kilogram 81 mortar grenades roared towards the attacking Soviet Red Army brigade.  Every artillery shell that landed exploded a circle of at least seven or eight meters in diameter in the crowd. Countless Red Army soldiers were blown up by the shelling and their flesh and blood flew everywhere. The sea of ??people charged by Berkloff suddenly felt like being thrown into a pond of stones.  The same ripples bloomed in circles.

    The mortars of the 81st Battalion are much more powerful than the mortars of the 60th Platoon. They can barely catch up with the explosion of 75mm field artillery shells. Each salvo fires 32 mortars weighing 3.6 kilograms.  The power produced by artillery grenades is equivalent to the salvo power of 6 field artillery batteries.

    Berkloff did not expect that a coalition cavalry regiment would be equipped with so many heavy mortars. Of course, what really made him despair was the dull and heart-stopping shooting of the Browning heavy machine gun that suddenly sounded on the opponent's position.  The other side not only has heavy machine guns, but there are at least a dozen heavy machine guns spraying hot flames.

      "Retreat! The entire army retreats! Retreat quickly!" Berklov waved his arms and made the last wise decision. In fact, as soon as the heavy machine guns on the coalition position rang out, almost all the charging Soviet Red Army soldiers fell to the ground.  No one on the ground dared to look forward to the charge that seemed like death. Andre, who was on the front line and the remaining 600 or so Red Army soldiers under his command, were almost completely wiped out. Andre himself was killed by two men who had been targeting him for a long time.  The heavy machine gun fired it into a hole full of blood and ashes.

    It is not an exaggeration to describe the scene in front of Sergei's cavalry regiment as a mountain of defeat. In fact, at such a close distance and there was no suitable terrain to escape from, giving up the attack and retreating was the wisest and most unfortunate decision at the same time.  .

    Countless Red Army soldiers running towards the rear of the position were mowed down by machine gun bullets chasing after them. In crowded areas, they were greeted by mortar shells from the other side. The guard platoon soldiers around Berkloff had suffered all their casualties. This guy  He was also wounded in the leg. Looking at his subordinates who were almost killed by the enemy's mortar shells and machine gun bullets all over the mountains and plains, Berkloff knew that the fate of the entire army had inevitably befallen him.  The two brigades who came here.

    Looking at the less than 2,000 people who could run out of the battlefield, the remaining more than 6,000 Red Army soldiers had all fallen on the front line that was three kilometers wide and more than 1 kilometer deep. Berklov tried his best to stand up, but his legs failed.  The part of his body injured by mortar shrapnel was bleeding profusely, making this guy's eyes darken in pain. At this time, the opponent's cavalry appeared behind the coalition position. It turned out that Sergey saw that the two opponents' brigades had been annihilated by him.  Most of them, except for the machine guns and mortars, were ordered to stay in place and continue to intercept the opponent with long-distance artillery fire. The rest of the troops mounted their horses and launched a pursuit of the fleeing Soviet Red Army!

    The 1,500 coalition cavalrymen waved their shining sabers and rushed towards the enemy shouting "Hurrah~~~". The machine guns and mortars remaining on the position extended their fire. The remaining number of Berklov's troops running in the distance was still there.  Under the pursuit of coalition mortars and heavy machine guns, the number of soldiers continued to decrease. Many Soviet Red Army soldiers who could not run simply dropped their weapons and raised their hands. Smart people naturally remembered the tradition of the coalition forces preferential treatment of prisoners. A good man will not suffer the immediate consequences, especially  It was the opponent who sent out cavalry to pursue him. How could anyone outrun the horse even if they were exhausted?

    The 1,500 coalition cavalry quickly caught up with less than 1,500 Soviet Red Army soldiers who were still on the run. Most of the people were frightened to death, and the Soviet Red Army soldiers, who were out of breath and were caught up, were on the spot.  There is no shame in surrendering to one's compatriots, and there is no shame in surrendering to the coalition forces. As long as one does not surrender to the Kolchak gang, it is nothing. If you are injured, you still have a chance to be repatriated. If you are captured,  You won't lose your life. Continuing to resist pointlessly is asking for death!

    The sound of gunfire on the battlefield gradually subsided and orders were given. The Soviet Red Army prisoners who luckily did not die in the battle were escorted by the coalition cavalry to the designated location to assemble. The injured Berklov was also found from the battlefield and bandaged up.  , this guy had lost a lot of blood, was exhausted, and his face was pale, but his life was not in danger.

    A group of cavalry, surrounded by the coalition battlefield commander, rode up to Berkloff's stretcher. The man managed to open his eyes, wondering who could beat him like this!
