Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Leading the White Guard vanguard battalion was Valery Vasilyevich Polyakov, commander of the 11th Don Cavalry Regiment, who was also a Cossack warrior. When the two armies met, the brave prevailed, although the number of Soviet Red Army cavalry on the opposite side was  A regiment that was three or four times larger than his own, but Polyakov did not dare to turn around and retreat. Instead, he sent a messenger flying back to report the news to the brigade commander Gasken, while commanding the vanguard battalion to wave a shiny  The saber went up to kill

    "Don warriors, Cossack warriors, this is the regiment next to Budyonny, catch up and capture Budyonny alive! A reward of a hundred taels of gold and a promotion to the third rank! Ula" Colonel Polyakov led more than 600 people  The Cossack cavalry roared and shouted for Ula and rushed forward",

    If Polyakov had seen a cavalry brigade of the Soviet Red Army in front of him, he would have turned around and retreated. Just kidding, no matter how brave the Don Cossacks were, they could not just throw themselves to death among the enemies. The problem was the Soviet Union in front of them.  The Red Army cavalry only has the strength of a regiment, and behind it is the main force of the brigade. At this time, the task of the vanguard battalion is to hold off the enemy instead of retreating cowardly Letting Budyonny go is letting go of gold and promotion opportunities  ¡­

    ¡°Polyakov really hasn¡¯t figured it out yet. He is now the colonel commander. If Budyonny is caught, should he be promoted to the chief of staff of the major general division?  Or be promoted to brigade commander?  This guy really doesn¡¯t have time to think about how much benefit it will be for him to be promoted to the third level. The goal of the regiment leader Polyakov is to lead the vanguard battalion to catch up and delay the enemy The main force of the brigade is two kilometers behind him, and he can do it with just one look.  Reinforcements come in and wipe out the opponent in one fell swoop ""Look

    Nearly 2,500 Soviet Red Army cavalrymen from the 5th Regiment of Ryabyshev's 3rd Cavalry Brigade ran into Polyakov's White Guard Cossack Cavalry Battalion. As soon as they met, the two sides swung their sabers and killed each other.  There were still more than 300 Cossacks around Lyakov who had not fallen off their horses. Of course, what shocked Colonel Polyakov, who had fought a bloody battle, was the second cavalry regiment of the Soviet Red Army that appeared head-onthat is,  Said that the cavalry around Budyonny was not a regiment, but at least a cavalry brigade

    The panting cavalrymen of the Cossack vanguard battalion were dumbfounded Just now they used a dense formation of sharp arrows to penetrate the two Red Army cavalry battalions in front of the opponent. At least 400 of the opponent's cavalry fell from their horses. This was a battle.  The bloody battle No one had time to give in. In fact, Ryabishev, the commander of the 3rd Soviet Red Army Cavalry Brigade, was surprised by how fierce the White Guard Cossack Cavalry Battalion was in front of him. The superimposed cavalry battalions he placed in front of him were actually all  were penetrated by the opponent's cavalry The 1st and 3rd Battalions of the 5th Regiment each suffered nearly 200 cavalry casualties, and the number of Cossacks who were cut off by the Soviet Red Army cavalry was only about 300

    And because the two sides were fighting against each other, the 2nd and 4th cavalry battalions that Ryabyshev outflanked fell into the air. Then it was the turn of the Soviet Red Army cavalry to be shocked, because the distance less than 1 kilometer to the southwest was  There was a lot of dust in the distance Cossack cavalry approaching a brigade surged up like a tide

    This was an out-and-out encounter. Ryabyshev did not expect that the main force of the Cossack cavalry was so close to their vanguard battalion. This guy hurriedly blew the trumpet and asked his entire 5th Cavalry Regiment to turn around.  The horses gathered in a circle in the northwest direction, and began to seize the small high ground beside the woods to prepare for the first defense. The horse-drawn heavy machine guns took the lead in occupying the position and began to shoot to suppress the position.  __//

    Due to the unknown situation of the enemy, the commander of the 3rd Cavalry Brigade did not rashly lead his main regiment to continue rushing into the Cossack Cavalry Brigade without hesitation. Of course, the bravery and succession of the White Guard Cossack Vanguard Battalion just now also made a brave general like Ryabishev  Secretly surprised.

    Colonel Polyakov, the commander of the 11th White Guard Cavalry Regiment, was obviously a lucky general. He led the rest of the White Guard's vanguard battalion and turned their horses' heads to the right at the right time. The battlefield was in chaos with people shouting and horses neighing.  The outpost encountered the post-war cavalry, but coincidentally, they each drew half of the Tai Chi Yin and Yang fish eyes. When Gorodovikov, commander of the 2nd Division of the Budyonny Cavalry Corps of the Soviet Red Army, led the 3rd Brigade and 6th Regiment to catch up,  The remaining 200 cavalrymen of the avant-garde battalion led by Polyakov have joined the main force of the 11th Cavalry Regiment commanded by brigade commander Gasken, who came to meet them, followed closely by the 6th Cavalry Brigade led by General Krashilnikov  The 12th Regiment also caught up

    The remaining 4,000 cavalrymen of the 6th Don Cossack Cavalry Brigade of the White Guards are separated by a distance of 1,500 meters, with a shallow river beach in the middle, and the 5,000 main cavalrymen of the 3rd Brigade of the 2nd Cavalry Division of the Soviet Red Army Budyonni Cavalry Corps.  Many people entered the confrontation. The horse-drawn machine gun companies of both sides each occupied small high ground and shot at their positions. The width of the positions of both sides was about 2,500 meters, and behind them, their respective artillery companies were busy arranging their positions and preparing to enter the battle!

    Lying on the river beach in the center of the position were the bodies of cavalrymen who had been damaged in the encounter at the outposts of both sides. The White Guards vanguard battalion had lost more than 400 people, while the Soviet Red Army had lost more than 500 people. The lightly wounded on both sides had climbed back into the ranks on their own.  The seriously injured are still rolling and howling on the battlefield they can wade through the water.Most of the river has been dyed red with blood

    "Report to the division commander! Opposite is the 6th Brigade, the main force of the 3rd Don Cossack Cavalry Division. The prisoner said that the leader is the Cossack leader and Chief of Staff of the 1st Kazan Army Krashilnikov. Judging from the situation, there are probably more than 4,000 left.  With human strength, the fighting power of the bastards is not weak. My 1st Battalion and 3rd Battalion each lost 2 companies of troops and sacrificed more than 200 people. The lightly wounded have been withdrawn More than a dozen seriously wounded are still alive.  Staying on the battlefield, the opponent's situation is similar. This group of enemies is very tough My orderly Kishika blocked a saber for me and died"

    The military cap on Brigadier Ryabeyshev's head was splattered with a lot of blood, and the entire cuff of his right hand was soaked with blood Fortunately, he was not injured. In the close-range saber-to-saber fight between the two sides just now, Ryabeyshev  Scheff cut down at least three Cossack cavalry, at the cost of one of the brigade commander's two orderlies being killed and one wounded

    At this time, the artillery of both sides was already in position. Fortunately, each had only one artillery battery of six 76mm mountain field guns. Not to be outdone, they started firing at each other from a distance of about 3 kilometers, and they invariably aimed at each other.  At the artillery position, it was obvious that the shooting skills of Gorodovikov's Red Army artillerymen were not as good as those of the artillerymen of the 6th White Guard Cavalry Brigade, and the preemptive attack did not achieve the desired effect.
