Tsarist Empire: Please call me His Majesty the Tsar

"Tap! Click! "

Tens of thousands of Cossack cavalry, brandishing sabers in their hands, charged the line of the army of Grand Duke Mikhail.

The horse's hooves trampled on the ground, making a dense sound, and gathered together like thunder.

Cavalry has always been the main combat arm of the Imperial Russian Army, especially the Cossack cavalry, which is extremely brave and has almost become a nightmare in the eyes of other European countries.

After the defeat of the infantry and the Guards, Grand Duke Nikolai could only pin his hopes on these Cossack cavalrymen.

He hoped to rely on the speed advantage of the cavalry to quickly break through the dense fire blockade of Grand Duke Mikhail's army and break through the defensive line. Open a safe passage for the Guards behind.

However, he was soon disappointed.

"Fire! Fire with all your might, do not skimp on ammunition! "

Grand Duke Mikhail's army, faced with this situation, also reacted immediately.

A large number of junior officers, shouting orders.

On the defensive line, all weapons were meeting, and they were firing at maximum rate of fire, frantically pouring shells on the Cossack cavalry. It was hoped that intensive fire would stop the attack of these Cossack cavalry.

After all, cavalry can advance much faster than infantry. If you don't pay attention, you may cause the defense line to be breached.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "

Thousands of howitzers and field guns opened heavy fire. At the same time, a large number of mortars of various calibers are also firing at the maximum rate of fire.

Dense shells rained down, and dense explosions continued to sound.

A large number of Cossack cavalry were in the explosion, and the bombed people turned on their backs. Many Cossack cavalrymen, falling off their horses, were directly trampled into meat mud.

"Tap-da-da! Bang! Bang! Bang! "

Heavy and light machine guns, as well as rifles in the hands of the soldiers, were also firing furiously.

Dense bullets poured at these Cossack cavalry, shooting them and the war horses under them.

Although the charge speed of these Cossack cavalry was very fast, under such a dense fire attack, they were still unable to advance.

In particular, the distance of more than a hundred meters in front of the defense line seemed to have become a forbidden area of death. No matter how many Cossack cavalry rushed here, they all fell and lost their lives.

Many war horses were also shot and fell to the ground, making a mournful cry, which made this battlefield like hell.

"Your Excellency, Grand Duke Nikolai has nothing to do, even the most elite Cossack cavalry has been sent. Our firepower is still strong enough to withstand their attack. As long as we resist them, we will win this battle! Lieutenant General Bruchlov's face was full of excitement.

Grand Duke Mikhail nodded: "Very good, it seems that we are not far from victory." Prepare our cavalry. As soon as the order is given, it is immediately possible to attack! "

"Yes, Your Excellency!" Lieutenant General Brusilov answered.

He also knew that after they had resisted the attack of Grand Duke Nicholas's army, it would be their turn to launch a counterattack. This war will soon be able to divide the victory and defeat.

Archduke Nikolai kept holding binoculars and watching the charge of the Cossack cavalry. Countless soldiers of the Guards in gray military uniforms followed behind the Cossack cavalry.

However, Grand Duke Nikolai's face at this moment was livid. He never imagined that even if the Cossack cavalry was dispatched, it would still not be able to break through the rebels' defenses.

"Damn it! How is this possible? How could Mikhail build such a formidable army in just a few years? This is not scientific at all! "Grand Duke Nikolai could hardly accept what was in front of him.

However, this is the truth, and he cannot accept it.

"Your Excellency, what should we do now?" Grand Duke Aglini couldn't help but look worried.

They have exhausted all means and cannot win. This makes the current situation undoubtedly very bad for them.

Grand Duke Nikolai was silent, or rather, now he does not know what to do.

Little by little, the Cossack cavalry suffered extremely heavy losses under intensive firepower. This caused the morale of these Cossack cavalry to quickly fall to the freezing point.

Although the Cossack cavalry of the provinces fought bravely, they were not fools!

In the past, they had defeated the enemies, but now they themselves have become the targets of slaughter. This naturally made the will to fight of many Cossack cavalry shaken.

It didn't take long for the Cossack cavalry to turn their horses and flee the battlefield.

However, they collided with the Guards following them, causing chaos on the battlefield.

This directly caused more Cossack cavalry to start fleeing.

Grand Duke Mikhail and Lieutenant General Brusilov were keenly aware of this.

Grand Duke Nikolai's army seems to be on the verge of collapse. So, the time is ripe for them to fight back.

"Order the cavalry, immediately put into a counterattack!" Grand Duke Mikhail ordered.

"Yes, Your Excellency!" Lieutenant General Brusilov answered.
