Chapter 172: Poland!
Banzai!
Kulichkov, who came to suppress the rebels, carried basically four-pounder and six-pounder field guns, although there were not many of them, but they were more than enough to deal with those insurgents.
With the wave of Kulichkov's big hand, the artillery in the Russian army began to wield its might, and the Polish army was on the side playing soy sauce and occasionally served as a cheerleader in the artillery of the Polish army.
In Kulichkov's mind, as long as those Poles don't make trouble for him, then he has to thank God, in fact, when this group of 3,000 Polish troops was transferred to the Russian barracks, Kulichkov was angry and went to August for comment.
But August told him that in a hurry, Poland was able to raise such 3,000 men entirely for the sake of the friendship between Russia and Poland, and that it was impossible to transfer troops from outside Warsaw in such a short time, and most of the troops around Warsaw belonged to the private soldiers of August and some powerful Polish nobles.
August said that these 3,000 people were all a team that he had put together and spent countless favors to pull up.
Although Kulichkov was unwilling, for the sake of the overall situation, Kulichkov still swallowed this breath.
Columns of Russian troops marched forward at the same time in a neat formation to the rhythm of drums, in order to defeat the opposing rebel army at once, Kulichkov did not retain the strength of this attack at all, he put all the strength in his hands into the battlefield, he hoped that this battle would be successful.
Corresponding to the neatness of the Russian army is the laziness of the Polish army, look at those Poles, can it still be called an army, the drums of the military band seem to have no effect at all, and some Polish soldiers seem to have not eaten for a few days and even walk crookedly.
Kulichkov, who put down the binoculars, shook his head, and then decided not to care about those Poles and put most of them on the frontal battlefield where the Russian army was attacking, of course, in order to prevent those Polish troops from being unable to withstand the pressure of the battlefield, Kulichkov arranged two hundred Russian cavalry behind the Polish army on both flanks, and these cavalry would be pressed not far behind the Polish army.
With a wave of the flag, countless tigers and wolves gathered under it, and the big husband was no better than this.
More and more Russian troops have entered the sight of the rebel soldiers, and unlike the resoluteness on the faces of the Russian soldiers, the defending rebel army still shows a trace of apprehension on its face, although it occupies a geographical advantage, it is the Russian army, the Russian army in the famous town of Europe.
Just when the rebel soldiers' hearts were intense, one shell after another was smashed on the rebel army's position, and countless cracks appeared in the neat queue, and with the increase of rifts, the psychological pressure of the rebel soldiers became more and more great.
Although many of the rebel army are soldiers with certain training, the evil spirit of the Russian army, especially the Russian soldiers, has caused great psychological pressure on the rebel army.
This kind of thing is really mysterious, even in modern times, if an ordinary person faces a gangster who often fights, the sense of fear in his heart also exists.
And can a gangster compare with a Russian soldier who licks blood from the knife's edge!
Fortunately, when the Russian army appeared, the few artillery pieces in the rebel army also began, although there were not many, but they could still be comforted.
The artillery of the rebels was thanks to the selfless financing of August and the Polish nobility, and several of them were secretly supported by the Prussians.
Although the artillery technology of the rebel army is really not good, some shells not only did not hit the head of the Russian army but even almost fell on the head of their own people, for this situation, Yevisky can only deeply hate those artillery is really not a weapon, but there is no way, who called the artillery in the rebel army was simply taught a little knowledge, and there was not much practice at all, so how much combat effectiveness can be produced by rushing to the battlefield.
Kulichkov in the distance immediately ordered the Russian artillery to bombard the artillery positions of the rebel army after seeing the artillery in the rebel army, and the Russian artillery faithfully carried out this order, as the pressure of the Russian artillery decreased, the rebel infantry standing on the front line finally breathed a sigh of relief, the shells fell on the heads of their comrades better than on their own heads, and many rebel soldiers breathed a sigh of relief with such a mentality of dying friends and not dying poorly.
However, the change of target of the artillery does not mean that the Russian soldiers standing opposite the rebel army have become ornaments, and after the artillery changes its target, the Russian army once again walked up to the rhythm of drums.
Just as the two sides entered, the Russian troops, under the command of the officers, quickly began to raise their guns and aim a series of actions, while the rebels could only start to reload their ammunition in a hurry.
In less than half an hour of fighting, the rebel soldiers on the front line were beaten to the point of crying dad and mother, and many of the rebel army ranks showed signs of collapse, seeing this, a smile appeared on Kulichkov's face, and at the same time, he also had more contempt for the commanders of the rebel army.
What Kulichkov did not find was that the Polish army on the left and right flanks not far from the army had not made much progress at all, and the battle on the left and right flanks had been tepid since the beginning of the battle.
As the army's offensive went smoothly, soon the entire battlefield took on a U-shaped situation, with the Russian offensive front at the bottom, and the tepid engagement between the Polish army and the rebel army on both flanks.
Just when the Russian advance was about to break through the thin layer of rebel defense at the bottom of the U-shape, the huge shouts of killing that suddenly broke out on the left and right flanks instantly shocked the entire battlefield.
I saw that the Polish army and the rebel army on the left and right flanks suddenly merged into an army and launched an attack on the Russian army at the same time, and at the U-shaped gap, the Polish army instantly filled this gap, and the entire battlefield became O-shaped.
The Russian army was surrounded, and this situation made Kulichkov stunned for a moment, and for a moment, the attack and defense were retrograde, but he was only stunned for a while, and then he heard him scream: "God, what did I see, it was a hoax, those Poles completely deceived us, damn traitor, August is a big liar, he doesn't deserve to be king, he deserves to go to hell" After venting, Kulichkov's heart seemed to feel better, and he only heard him grit his teeth and say: "Immediately order the 6th and 8th Infantry Battalions to resist the attack of those damned Poles, the 13th Battalion in the forward line with the same objective, tell all the officers not to take care of those Polish troops in the rear, and give me more strength to overcome the Polish line on the opposite side" Kulichkov was still very sensible, he did not order the army to turn around and break through from the direction of advance, but was determined to go one way to the end, after all, the rear was the Polish army that had merged with the rebel army, so it was impossible to turn back and attack the Poles, in this case, it was better to continue to attack forward, after all, in front of the Russian army was only the thin layer of the rebel defense line at the bottom of the original U-shape.
The two battalions in the rear did not disobey Kulichkov's order, and the officers faithfully carried out Kulichkov's order, and the two battalions of Russian soldiers quickly turned around and engaged in a fierce battle with the Polish troops rushing towards them.
After all, the combat effectiveness of the Russian army is there, although the Polish army and the rebel army have the advantage of strength after the merger, but in the face of the Russian army that not only disregards the lives of others, but even their own lives, the Poles are still inferior.
"Hurry up, those Russians are already surrounded by us、、、、 damn it, if you don't make a breakthrough, I will remove you from your post on behalf of His Majesty the King" Seeing that the army did not break through the Russian army on the opposite side, Korneyol became more and more impatient, and he kept ordering the army to increase the intensity of the attack and began to threaten those officers strongly, in the face of Kornyol's threat, the Polish officers could only smile bitterly.
"Chief, go quickly, the Russians are attacking too fiercely, and our brothers are almost unable to resist it."
A figure hurriedly came to Yevisky's side and said loudly, and after listening to his words, Yevisky just glanced at him lightly, and then still looked at the battlefield intently, without a trace of response.
"Leader, let's go, our defense line has been broken through in several places, and the Russian army continues to increase the intensity of the attack, we can't resist it at all."
Seeing that Yevisky did not respond, the man immediately spoke up again.
"I'm not leaving, I'm here, God testifies, the blood feud between me and the Russians has doomed me to not retreat, and I have been waiting for more than ten years to wait for such an opportunity.
Nasya, we Poles have shed too much blood, and if we can't stop the Russians, our nation will continue to be enslaved, and we will continue to bleed, and I have seen too many such situations, why should our suffering people be treated so unfairly.
Nasya, I am not leaving, here I am, I am with my soldiers, and the fate imposed on the Polish people, I have not, is, and will not agree with, and now is our best time, and those Prussians have promised to help us deal with the Russians, as long as the Russians in front of us are destroyed.
So here I am today, either we will leave all those Russians here, or those Russians will step over my corpse and continue to threaten the heads of the Polish people, either way, I will be here, not a single step back" Yevisky's words made Nacia look a little unacceptable, but before he could speak, Yevisky waved his hand at him, and then Yevisky whipped his horsewhip, and the war horse under his crotch galloped out.
"Soldiers, look at the people opposite you, those are the Russians who have enslaved our Poland for decades, those Russians are standing on Polish soil and ravaging the Polish people, what is the reason, is it said that all this was arranged by God, these Russians imposed on us, and we are standing here today not for anything else, but to give back to those Russians the suffering of our Polish people for decades.
Soldiers, today I am with you, if those Russians still want to enslave us Poles, then there is only one way in front of them, and that is to walk through our corpses, Poland!
Banzai!
” Saying that, Yevisky actually led his guards to charge the attacking Russian ** team.
