Chapter 2325: The essence of using cavalry

Human encounters are really wonderful. Galdamba and Chahan were grazing at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, living a life of low wind and grass and low cattle and sheep. They never dreamed that they would sit and drink in front of the mighty sea. , Arrived at the other end of the earth, ready to kill and set fire, and as an officer!

When they left, in addition to paying, they rewarded the boss with ten silver dollars.

Chahan said: "Your food is very good, so it's no wonder you can stand here. We must know that we Chinese are gourmets, and we have a big mouth!"

Galdamba also said: "Europeans actually have food, amazing!"

The boss told them: “Europe depends on the place. From the perspective of culture and history, only Catholics and Orthodox Christians can enjoy exquisite food. If you have the opportunity to go to the predominantly Protestant countries, such as the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, their food Often just provide fuel for the body, for the purpose of practicality!"

He was very happy and gave them two bottles of his own wine to take away.

Galdamba and Chahan came to the barracks, saw their mighty military uniform, two stars (major general) on their shoulders, and then saw the dense cavalry in front of them, they knew it was not a dream!

The troops they joined were the Tenth Army, each with a cavalry division, 104 divisions and 105 divisions, in order to give play to their Mongols' superb riding skills and lead these two cavalry units.

The two major generals went down to the army to understand the situation. This is what they learned when they were trained in the military academy. Investigate before they have the right to speak.

They found that the two cavalry units were tenacious in style, and their riding skills, slashing, and shooting qualities were quite good. Obviously they had done a lot of hard work, but they also had the disadvantage of not being able to integrate them. Some officers mechanically used the cavalry as infantry. , Purely use war horses as a means of transportation, and dismount as infantry when they reach their destination.

After further understanding, it turned out that it was not that the officer was incapable, but that he was afraid of losing the horse, and it was difficult to supplement, and he became an infantry.

Chahan asks, it’s not the case. Over the years, there have been more and more war horses in the South China Empire. The military industry first raised horses in a large number of mainland China, and then the Asan area can also raise horses. The latest is to raise horses in Sudan. The supply of horses is sufficient to achieve three horses per person, but the officer is still afraid of using horses to wear out too much, which is poor.

Such and such problems are normal. After all, the Chinese Army of the South China Empire is second-class, lower than the navy, and the best soldiers are in the navy.

Although the cavalry battled fiercely on the mainland, the South China Empire infantry's muskets and artillery were sharp, and there was also a pair of iron feet---the infantry ran fast, and it did not show the role of the cavalry.

The morale of the troops was mediocre, and the two officers did not talk too much nonsense, and they gave a performance in front of the troops, but seeing them galloping like the wind, the horses easily ran out of the line of the horse's tail, and then skillfully performed a kick to hide, and immediately slashed and killed. , To shoot an arrow with a bow is to shoot an arrow right away.

One shot a bird in the sky, and the other shot upside down a copper coin hanging on a branch.

The whole process is calm, without half-lighting gas, like moving clouds and flowing water, it is "the unity of people and horses!"

Witnessing the level of the two officers, the cavalry said they were very convinced.

They have reached a certain level through daily hard training, sincerely speaking, their level is no match for the immediate nation.

Of course, fighting with the horse race, because the South China Army cavalry training level is so high, and the fighting will be tenacious, coupled with good equipment, the horse race is not necessarily the opponent.

Galdamba and Chahan were active in their respective divisions, and they both sent accompanying soldiers to perform, but saw them galloping like the wind and skilled in horsemanship, performing difficult moves on horsebacks, and then whizzed towards the grass. People perform hacking and no one fails.

Then there are bows and arrows, all in.

But seeing that they opened their bows as fast as lightning, those arrows ran to their bows as if they were alive, and then they were launched out, and soon they shot the grass target into a hedgehog!

Next is the muskets, they are sniping far away immediately, without any bullets!

The targets were knocked down by them all the way away.

This made the officers and men of the 104th Cavalry Division and 105th Cavalry Division an eye-opener. They began to think that the Mongols brought by the general could only shoot arrows, but they did not expect to shoot so accurately.

Chahan said: "This is called advancing with the times, boys, come on!"

After watching their performances, the cavalry have expressed that they understand the gap and will work hard in the future.

Cha Han took the opportunity to say: "From now on, it's up to your performance!"

The army talks about strength, as long as you have strength, you can be respected.

He called the officers to a meeting and told them: "You are not afraid of death in battle, but sometimes it is reckless. I have seen your battles. Some people actually use cavalry to defend the enemy's strong formation. We should not do this. , We must know how to use cavalry!"

"What is the greatest utility of the cavalry?" he asked the officers.

The officers became active and said one after another, "Using the high mobility of the cavalry to attack the enemy!"

"Yes, that's right!" Chahan said about his plan to use the cavalry principle, that is, guerrilla tactics.

"As for Jiancheng, hand it over to other infantry units, we are cavalry!" Chahan said.

This is a good idea. The officers expressed that they obeyed the commander's orders and resolutely implemented the commander's strategy.

They carried out Chahan's orders. At the same time, the 104th Division's troops also carried out the orders of the division commander Galdamba. The effect was immediate, first of all, it got to the head of the friendly army.

...

Let's say that Li Chengdong of the Sixth Army was the vanguard and led his army northward.

People are like dragons, horses are like water, and the army is mighty.

India has a hot climate. Walking on the road, it seems that the road is red, hot, and dusty. People have burrowed into people's nostrils and throats. They felt that as long as they spoke, the dry mucous membrane would rupture.

Soldiers use veil to cover their faces, and some wear masks.

The crops on both sides of the road were sluggish due to lack of water, and some fields were simply deserted.

There is no tree that can provide shade on the road. The sun is hot and direct, so that the soldiers wear soft hats instead of steel helmets~www.wuxiaspot.com~You must plant trees on both sides of the roads of the South China Empire. One of the duties is to cover the people on the road. Obviously, local officials in India will not have such a high level and consciousness.

Li Chengdong was born with raised eyebrows, eye-catching eyes, open mouth, full of fierceness, and the words "I'm a villain" written on his head, seeing him can make children cry at night.

However, his fierceness is only for foreigners. For his own clan, he dare not be cruel, because the emperor effectively controlled him. In the army, there are political officers and intelligence officers to monitor the whole army, and the army is always up and down. The situation of the small soldiers was reported to the emperor, and the emperor was righteous to his clan and did not allow any subordinates to punish others at will.

But for foreigners, as long as there is a reasonable reason, it is not a matter for the general to kill someone.

Li Chengdong was riding a black date horse, and the horse was very vicious. The horses around him dared not get close to him.

He was racing on the road, and the striker asked him to take a look.

He went to see it, and the scene in front of him gave him a question: "Who am I, where am I from, and where am I going?"
