Chapter 177 The cavalry is here

The British were really cruel this time, and the six hundred elite cavalrymen were charging to the death. That's not to mention that there were three thousand cavalry in the new army. These cavalrymen were always under Adolf's command and followed him to support all directions. Six hundred cavalry were just the most elite and fastest among them. The front end of these six hundred people had already contacted the short handles of eighty soldiers blocking the door. The two thousand four hundred cavalry following behind were the same, and there was no concept of retreating at all.

Fortunately, some soldiers had already boarded the city wall and began to build blocking positions. However, there were only more than 100 people on it, and unless each person and a heavy machine gun were used, they would not be able to stop it. If these cavalry rushed in like this and took over the 600 cavalry who had been killed or injured, the situation here would be completely uncontrollable. Babu held a light machine gun and rushed to the death to the enemy. However, it seemed that there was still no big consequence.

Since Xiao Lin received the whereabouts of Adolf reported by Ye Owl, he began to pay attention to this side. The field brigade is not just infantry and artillery now. The company has no experience in raising horses, nor does it have suitable horse breeds and pastures. But the company does not have it, but the British have it. How can the lyrics of that line be sung, oh, by the way, "There is no gun or cannon, the enemy makes it for us." The company has guns and cannons, and it is also very advanced. Isn't it easy and pleasant to grab a horse to come?

The British were the same. Infantry artillery firepower was not as good as the company, and the only advantageous group was the cavalry. For a period of time, the thirty elite sniper teams of Ye Xiao Owl were borrowed by major brigade commanders to snipe the cavalry to obtain war horses. Until now, the third field brigade led by Babu also had a battalion of cavalry, that is, three hundred elite cavalry. Cavalry was used for fighting in the field, and it was a task of 25.

Of course, Xiao Lin was not 25 years old, and he kept suppressing these 300 cavalry. At the same time, he also transferred all the cavalry of the First Brigade and Second Brigade. Although there were not many cavalry of the First Brigade and Second Brigade, there were 1,000 people in total. The three armies were not too far away, and only took more than ten hours of footprint. This was also because the British had shrunk the defense line, which made the entire front line only have three attack points.

If the cavalry is coming, four hours will come with all their might. When Babu rushed up to block the enemy cavalry, Xiao Lin had already received a message that a thousand cavalry was about to arrive. However, the horses of these cavalry must rest for half an hour before they can enter the battle. Otherwise, when there are no people and horses, they will be given heads when they go up. Xiao Lin has never had any good idea for cavalry equipment. After all, this is not the era of cold weapons, fighting with plate armor and spears and giant swords.

Plate armor cannot prevent the attack of thermal weapons at all. However, the cavalry will still enter melee combat in the end, and it is not possible to defend at all. In desperation, Xiao Lin could only reopen the plate armor armor to study. Now, the cavalry all have a thin breastplate made of industrial-grade steel. The upper body, all parts that may affect combat effectiveness, such as the heart, throat, wrist, etc., are protected. A pair of heart protection mirrors are also added to ensure that they will not be broken by the short-handled musket of the British cavalry.

Because of the combat nature of the cavalry and the lack of submachine guns of the company, the weapons Xiao Lin equipped them with were mainly melee weapons. A type 56 cavalry knife imitated by the company was forged with the highest strength steel that can be produced by the steel factory in Belan. Whether it is sharp or strong, it is far from the saber used by all cavalry in this era. Moreover, because of the use of lighter alloy steel, the weight is very small, and the burden on the wrists of the cavalry is very small.

Of course, as a cavalry unit with advanced thermal weapons, it is impossible for the cavalry unit to be equipped with thermal weapons at all. Xiao Lin gave the engineers a task and used the foundation of the Type 17 pistol to develop simple submachine guns suitable for cavalry use. The cavalry submachine pistol, officially named 17-q by Xiao Lin, was officially equipped with the company's existing 1,300 cavalry units a week before the war started. Xiao Lin didn't know what it was, but thought it was not safe enough, so he equipped them with a Type 17 pistol as a self-defense melee firearm.

Xiao Lin thought about letting the cavalry gather together, and 1,300 cavalry acted together to drive the enemy's cavalry troops out. However, there were constant calls for help from the front. Xiao Lin knew that this was the first time that the company's soldiers had experienced such a critical moment and had no experience, so they didn't know what to do. Speaking of which, the company had fought a lot of battles, but with the careful arrangement of commanders such as Xiao Lin and the help of weapons and equipment that could crush the enemy, they were basically in a good battle. It was the first time that the enemy was suppressed and beaten.

If Xiao Lin did not let go of the cavalry in his hand, there would be no way ahead. There was no way, Xiao Lin had to send the cavalry of the Third Field Brigade first. At the same time, he kept asking his troops to follow closely, imitating the cavalry of his own side was beaten by the enemy with more and less, resulting in huge casualties. The cavalry battalion of the Third Field Brigade had long been too suffocated. It is understandable that they did not appear for this, after all.

However, the previous one had been saying that they had encountered enemy cavalry and had a fierce battle at the city gate, and their side was still at a disadvantage. They were full of hope and waited for Xiao Lin to issue an order to attack, but unexpectedly, Xiao Lin was worried about their combat effectiveness and asked them to wait for the arrival of other friendly cavalrymen. The people in the cavalry battalion almost became depressed. They thought they had to continue watching the comrades in front and the enemy cavalry to fight to death, and they could only sit on the bench, and their morale began to decline.

Xiao Lin ordered it, as if a powerful purification spell had cleared all the negative states on them. The people in the cavalry battalion screamed excitedly, picked up the 17-q-type assault pistol on their backs with one hand, held the reins in the other, kicked the horse under their crotch with both legs, and rushed straight through the widest road in the town. The soldiers in front almost received the news that at this distance, the walkie-talkie in the hands of the field division warriors was still enough to use.

They had already opened the passage and watched their cavalry rushing past them, and the soldiers couldn't help but feel at ease. No matter what, they also had elite cavalry troops here, and they would not let the enemy dominate. Then, the soldiers followed the steps of the cavalry and rushed to the battlefield from here. When the cavalry arrived, Babu was about to be hit by the enemy cavalry with a sabre. Fortunately, he blocked it with the light machine gun barrel in his hand in time.

Babu was in a state where the old force had gone and the new force had not yet grown, and another saber was cut by the side. Babu thought he was going to die here, and a 17-type bullet hit the owner of the saber. The saber was unable to fall, and Babu suffered a life. Looking in the direction of the gunshot, Babu was just watching his cavalry hit the enemy cavalry array. Babu set an example and did play a huge role. In addition, the people rushing up from behind, there were more than 150 infantrymen, blocking the 600 elite cavalry near the city gate.

The original number of elite British cavalry was only more than 300. However, these more than 100 infantry blocking the road also paid a huge price. More than 30 people died under the sabre, and more than 60 people were chopped down. They were not in danger of life for the time being, but if they were not treated in time, it would be impossible to say. When the cavalry battalion of the Third Brigade of Field Army rushed up, the British cavalry was still besieging more than 60 infantry up and down.

While running, the cavalry battalion fired all the 17-q substation pistol bullets of twenty-five bullets. The cavalry was too big, and whether it hit a man or a horse, its combat effectiveness would drop sharply. Regardless of the effective range and accuracy, they directly shot wildly from two hundred meters away, killing more than 60 enemy cavalrymen. Then, the people swung the substation pistol, and the pistol returned behind them along the shoulder strap. The empty right hand drew out the fifth and sixth cavalry swords from the saddle next to them in the next second.

After fighting for a while, the strength of these British cavalry was consumed a lot. After doing this, the casualties were severe. Three hundred Type 56 cavalry swords repeatedly chopped on more than 100 British cavalrymen. Each person had at least two blades and fell directly from the horse's back. Next, more than 100 elite new cavalrymen left behind were miserable. Three hundred cavalrymen who had newly joined the battle group, plus more than 60 infantrymen with certain combat power, siege them together.

When the 2,400 cavalrymen from the British New Army rushed into the town, these elite cavalry were gone. Only a dozen soldiers in the cavalry battalion were slightly injured. The newly arrived infantry was rebuilding their defensive positions under the command of Babu, who was vigorously motivated. Now, there were three heavy machine guns and seven light machine guns. As long as there was a little more time, these cavalry would die. Kokkas, the battalion commander of the Cavalry Battalion of the Third Brigade of Field, made a quick decision and took his subordinates to divide them into groups, rushing up to delay the enemy's cavalry.

They had fifteen magazines of 17-q sprint pistols on their horses, and only one was used, and there was one. The number of the two sides was too disparity and it was impossible to rush up to fight in close combat. It seemed that in order to facilitate their cavalry, many buildings were demolished and the roads were slightly widened, which was enough for seven or eight cavalry to turn around side by side. Three hundred cavalry rushed forward, took the 17-q sprint pistol and then turned around immediately. It was difficult for the enemy to chase after it.
