"Look, their cuirassiers have already drawn their swords."
“Once these guys charge at us on horseback, our men won’t be able to stop them at all.”
"Sir, I think we should retreat as soon as possible."
"If we don't retreat now, we're all doomed."
"Sir, we can't stay here any longer."
This feeling of failure spreads rapidly, like a plague.
One person wanted to run away.
Two people tried to run away.
Two people wanting to run can motivate more than a dozen others.
A dozen or so can influence 100, and 100 can influence thousands.
Nikolai looked at the people behind him.
Many of them were already trembling with fear.
Their faces were deathly pale, and their eyes were filled with terror.
Nikolai drew his sword and roared, "Men, there's nothing to be afraid of!"
"Although the enemy has a large number of people, we have an overwhelming advantage over them."
"Once the bugle sounds, I will lead the charge, and you will follow me and charge forward."
soon.
The combat order was issued to the platoon level.
Officers at the platoon and company level among the Russian soldiers were all giving pre-battle pep talks.
Just then, another troop of tens of thousands of cavalry galloped in from afar.
This force of tens of thousands of cavalrymen were all Cossacks.
Cossack cavalry were brave and skilled in battle.
Their fighting prowess was unparalleled, and their fame among the Cossack cavalry throughout Europe was known to all.
The Russian soldiers, who had been worried and afraid just moments before, regained their confidence when they saw the Gesak cavalry charging towards them.
"Haha, our Cossack cavalry has arrived."
"As soon as our Cossack cavalry makes a move, the enemy will surely flee in disarray."
"The Cossack cavalry charged their rear, routing them and forcing them to flee in disarray."
Nicholas and Sheffield held knives in their hands.
The commander's sword was pointed forward.
"The young men are making steady progress."
"yes……"
Soon, the sound of war drums resounded from company to platoon level.
"Warriors, heed my command!"
"Let's go..."
"One two one, one two one, one two one..."
The crowd moved forward steadily in time with the beat of the war drums.
Xiang Yu and Li Yuanba each led eight heavy trucks.
Each heavy truck is equipped with four cannons.
They all pointed their cannons to one side.
"Brothers, don't just stand there! Once the enemy enters our firing range, open fire!"
Xiang Yu and Li Yuanba roared.
Instantly, all the cannons on those dozen or so medium-sized trucks went off.
The booming sound of cannons filled the air.
Puffs of blue smoke rose from the muzzle of the cannon.
The shells hurtled towards the enemy's position like meteorites.
This era.
Whether it was the Russian Empire or the French Empire.
Their cannons were firing solid projectiles.
These solid projectiles can only damage targets directly in front of the muzzle; they pose no threat to other targets.
Not only that.
Their cannons also fired much more slowly.
Each time they fire a shell, it takes them more than a minute to reload.
Jiang Tian's cannons can fire more than 20 shells per minute.
These shells traced graceful arcs through the air.
It landed steadily in the crowd of the other side.
Immediately afterwards, deafening explosions rang out one after another.
With a deafening explosion, hot shrapnel flew everywhere like a shower of flowers.
These sharp and hot shrapnel fragments relentlessly pierced and cut through the soldiers' bodies.
When a shell explodes, soldiers within a radius of several meters will be blown to pieces, with limbs and severed bodies scattered everywhere.
The shockwave from the explosion sent everyone nearby flying into the air.
Those at the epicenter of the explosion were instantly torn to pieces.
Even those who were far from the epicenter of the explosion could not escape the shrapnel attacks.
When a shell explodes, a huge crater will appear on the ground.
Black smoke billowed from the center of the crater, and dozens of people nearby were blown to the ground, lying motionless.
The dozen or so trucks drove off in two directions at the same time.
They kept firing at the densest parts of the enemy's ranks.
One shell after another flew accurately into the enemy ranks.
The shockwaves from the explosion stretched out in one continuous wave.
Both sides were stunned.
The riders on these dozen or so vehicles were running, and the effect they produced was several times greater than that of their opponents; the effect of running was even greater.
Most importantly, these shells were both accurate and powerful.
The two sides have not yet made contact.
They were carrying more than a dozen vehicles, on which dozens of cannons killed two or three thousand people.
Both sides were stunned.
Sheffield and Nikola immediately recognized that all of the dozen or so cars belonged to Jiang Tian.
These two people had experienced Jiang Tian's prowess firsthand.
Although Sheffield and Nicola were far apart, they glanced at each other.
Both of them knew that once Jiang Tian's troops charged over, they wouldn't be able to escape.
The two men were just encouraging their men, but after dozens of cannon shots came flying, they both wanted to run away.
Nikolai quickly turned his horse around.
"Sir, where are you going?" the guard next to him asked quickly.
"I suddenly feel a bit diarrheay, my stomach hurts, I need to find a place to relieve myself." Nikolai gently nudged his legs against the horse's belly.
