    Timoshenko nodded fiercely, jumped on the horse led by the orderly, and at the same time waved his fist at the commander of the division's guard company who stayed behind to lead the team to defend Budyonny, and gave the man who was sitting down a hard slap.  The horse, surrounded by a group of guards, galloped into the queue of the 1st Cavalry Division on the south side.

    Budyonny took a few steps onto the road and looked to the south. After Timoshenko returned to his troops, the horns sounded in order. The cavalry soldiers of the 1st Cavalry Division who were resting on both sides of the road mounted their horses one after another.  The large army of people galloped, raising dust all over the sky, and rumbled towards the south

    Here, the commander of the cavalry corps Budyonny, surrounded by the guard company of the 1st cavalry division led by Pavlichenko, led the staff of the military department. Nearly 300 cavalrymen followed the 4th cavalry like a gust of wind.  Zebrodin, the brigade's messenger, turned back to the position of the 4th Cavalry Brigade to the north.

    "Commanderwhy are you here in personthe enemy is a cavalry brigade. The result of interrogating the prisoners is that the 13th Cavalry Brigade, led by their division commander, went north to pursue our cavalry reconnaissance battalion. How do we fight? The 1st Cavalry Brigade  The division was transferred back to eat the opponent first. "How about this brigade?" Romanenko, commander of the 4th Brigade of the 2nd Cavalry Division, and regiment commander Zhukov met Budyonny's cavalry group.

    "Have you asked clearly? Another brigade of the 7th Cavalry Division has gone north? Are there any other pursuers following the 7th Cavalry Division?"

    Budyonni stepped up to the headquarters of the temporary field position, picked up his binoculars and looked at the battlefield. In the distance, about 2 or 3 kilometers away, he could see the cavalry of the White Guards shuttling back and forth, and the other side was also building a field position.  , several gunshots were heard from time to time on the smoke-filled battlefield, and a gun roared over the headquarters of the 4th Cavalry Brigade, exploding a pile of dust dozens of meters away from the side and rear. However, the accuracy was obviously average, at best.  It just acts as a distraction.

    "Report to the commander, our regiment ambushed the opponent's avant-garde company and captured more than a dozen prisoners. The result of the interrogation was that it was unclear whether there were other troops, because this avant-garde company was part of the reconnaissance battalion of the 7th Cavalry Division. They came from the southwest  Near the former enemy headquarters in the direction of Kolchak, we were ordered to outflank the positions supporting the 4th, 5th and 6th Kazan Infantry Divisions in the northeast direction. After catching up, we had already withdrawn to the north, so this reconnaissance"  The battalion was divided into three along the footprints and pursued in three directions: west, north and east. The one we killed was the cavalry reconnaissance company that was pursuing eastward"

    Zhukov, the 22-year-old commander of the 8th Cavalry Regiment, is not tall but very strong. His brows show determination, his complexion is fair, and his lips are pursed, but there is a trace of shyness. After all, he has just become the commander of the regiment, and he is facing the arrival of the commander in person.  Regarding the position of his own regiment, this guy was also confused. However, he still had to report what he needed to report, and there was no need to hide his merits.

    "Georgy Konstantinovich, your regiment fought well, but it's not enough to just kill a company of the enemy. You have to hit the enemy hard and hurt them so that the rest can be handled easily!  "As Budyonny was talking, the brigade commander Romanenko, who was holding a telescope next to him, shouted,

    "Commander the White Guards have attacked probably put in a battalion of troops fire artillery?!" Each regiment of the 4th Cavalry Brigade has a 6-gun artillery battery, which is also the Soviet Red Army.  The difference between the 1st Cavalry Corps and other cavalry units of the Soviet Red Army earlier was that originally a division of the Soviet Red Army only had 12 artillery companies. Now Budyonny deployed the artillery companies of the Cavalry Army to "Beiyang 1917 750  Chapter 15 (Are you confident?!) At the regimental level, each 2500-man cavalry regiment has a 6-gun 76mm mountain field artillery battery.

    In front of Zhukov's regiment's position, the enemy on the left probably sent a cavalry battalion of more than 500 cavalry soldiers in 4 rows. The width of the team on the left and right was close to 250 meters, and they marched towards the Soviet Red Army's blocking position in a relatively neat formation.  Moving in small steps, on the rear position, the White Guard cavalry lined up at least two regiments of troops on each side. Since both sides lit wet haystacks and cow dung at their front lines to release smoke that interfered with their vision, the situation on the flanks  Can't see very clearly.

    The left and right width of the White Guard's rear position is more than 2 kilometers, and the depth is not clear. The array listed by the Soviet Red Army cavalry is almost 2 kilometers. Since the wind direction at the end of July is mostly southeasterly, the White Guard cavalry is obviously in  Going into the attack against the wind, the opponent's artillery fire seemed a little more intense than before, but the sound was just like six cannons from an artillery battery firing in turns.

    Most of the cannons passed over the Soviet Red Army cavalry ranks and exploded in the rear. Of course, by chance, one or two fell into the ranks of the cavalry, knocking off the people and horses who could not escape. "Beiyang 1917" fell to the ground.  Flesh and blood flew everywhere.

    Zhukov's 8th Cavalry Regiment was lined up with about 560 Red Army cavalry from the 4th Battalion. This was also to avoid showing weakness to the enemy. His 2nd and 3rd Battalions pulled their horses and ambush on both sides of the 4th Battalion's position as a preparation.  The 1st Cavalry Battalion of the brigade was placed together with the brigade headquarters guard platoon in the woods behind to hide and wait.

    ??In addition to four cavalry battalions with 560 men, Zhukov's 8th Cavalry Regiment is also equipped with a heavy machine gun company with six horse-drawn heavy machine guns. At this time, three heavy machine guns are arranged on each side of the position, but the distance is  Shang Yuan, neither the heavy machine guns of the Soviet Red Army nor the White Guards opened fire rashly. On both sides of the cavalry battalion of the attacking White Guards, there were two horse-drawn heavy machine guns galloping on each side. Obviously, the commander of the Cossack cavalry  It's not a fuel-efficient lamp either.

    "CommanderWhy hasn't Timoshenko's 1st Division come up yet? Otherwise, if we come up from both wings now, we can defeat the two White Guard Cossack regiments on the opposite side in one breath!" Cavalry No. 2  Romanenko, commander of the 4th brigade of the division, put down his telescope and turned to look at the road to the south behind him. It was quiet with no dust and no cavalry. He couldn't even hear the sound of horse hooves. This guy carefully walked on Budyonny's road.  whispered in the ear.

    "The 1st Cavalry Division went south to relieve the siege of the 1st Kameshin Infantry Division I, Budyonny, will personally lead your 4th Brigade and 8th Regiment to fight this battle. What do you think? I am confident that I will put an end to the situation."  No bastards?" Bujoni told the truth disapprovingly.

    "Huh?" Romanenko and Zhukov were both surprised when they heard this. They had thought well. Zhukov's 8th Regiment blocked the enemy's attack head-on, and Timoshenko's two cavalry brigades flanked them on the left and right.  If you go up there, the White Guards Cavalry Brigade of the other side is like meat on the chopping board and will definitely not be able to escape. But according to what the commander is saying now, he is the only one left to fight this battle with his 8th Regiment How to fight this?  The enemies on the opposite side are twice as many as you are, and their troops and firepower are superior to yours!
