Chapter 142： Attack, Kingdom Sword (2)

Major Shan Prot, whom they were talking about, was hiding behind a pile of shrubs wrapped in a small hill, holding a telescope and looking at a clearing about 500 meters away, where about three hundred farmers in various clothes gathered. They were really arguing about something around an officer in Bulgarian military uniforms, but after a while, under the officer's stop, they ended the dispute and began to organize the team.

"What should we do, battalion commander?"

A subordinate company commander of Major Shan Prot leaned beside him and asked quietly.

Major Shan Prot put down the telescope in his hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to him. "The people who called us are ready to ambush them in front."

The company commander asked in a low voice, a little puzzled. "Battalion commander, they are just militiamen, as long as we rush once, we can defeat them."

Facing his own company commander's question, Major Shan Prot lowered his voice and yelled at him. "Rush once? Whose wounds are your soldiers."

After being taught a lesson by Major Shan Prot, the company commander retreated desperately, intending to let the cavalry go around in front of the militias to deal with them ruthlessly.

Major Shan Prot observed for a while and confirmed that these militiamen were planning to rush to Silistra and retreated. He took the reins handed by the adjutant and walked forward with his horse for a while, ensuring that these militiamen would not be disturbed. Later, he rode his favorite horse to his cavalry battalion.

Three kilometers away, Major Shan Prot’s cavalry battalion was ready, waiting for his battalion commander to come.

The company commander, who had returned first, stepped forward and asked after seeing Major Shan Prot's return. "How is the battalion commander?"

"These militiamen intend to go to Silestra, and we will stop them in front." Major Shan Prot said to the company commander and waved to the entire camp. "set off."

The cavalry battalion followed his battalion commander and began to move. They bypassed these militiamen from the side and rushed to a forest five kilometers ahead, where the road happened to pass through the middle and it was an excellent ambush spot.

The soldiers of the cavalry battalion were here, setting up their only heavy weapons, two Maxim and four Madsen machine guns, on both sides of the road. The soldiers also dismounted and laid ambush on both sides to wait for the Bulgarians to come up. After half an hour, these Bulgarian militiamen appeared in front of them in two rows. The soldiers who saw the Bulgarian militia approaching the cavalry battalion lowered their heads so as not to be spotted. These militias really lacked the military quality. They did not check when they approached here, and they just lined up to walk in.

Major Shan Prot would not be polite to see here, and when these Bulgarians walked into the middle of the woods, he gave an order. "hit"

Six machine guns were fired at the marching team, and his cavalry battalion soldiers raised their guns from both sides to shoot in one round.

Facing the sudden violent attack, these militiamen who lacked training panicked and watched the people next to them fall in groups, some of them were acquaintances they knew. For a while, the only patriotic enthusiasm of these militiamen was lost. All of them were thrown around like headless flies. Some wanted to fight back because their friends were killed, some wanted to hide in the woods because they were afraid, and some dropped their rifles and scared them to lie on the ground.

This battle also ended very quickly. This time, the only leading officer in the militia team in uniform was recruiting bullets like a beacon. For the first time, Major Shan Prot saw more than a dozen shots dead in his body and could no longer die. Up. And these militias who lacked command were elite standing opponents, and more than ten minutes after the start of the battle, no one could see any resistance.

Major Shan Prot yelled to his soldiers. "Casefire."

Then the gunfire gradually subsided, and the soldiers of the cavalry battalion began to check the results of the battle with their rifles, and called the militiamen who were lying on their stomachs to be captured.

A company commander who had counted the results came forward and said to Major Shan Prot. "The battalion commander this time we eliminated 287 enemy troops, of which 218 were killed and 69 were captured. We only had two minor injuries."

The company commander did not mention the severely wounded prisoners, and the prisoners who were generally unable to stand up on their own were dealt with on the spot. This is also the practice on the battlefield now. No one will waste medicine for the seriously wounded enemy unless he is a big man. Obviously, this group of militiamen can't have big shots. It seems that they are all recruited by farmers on the spot.

After hearing his company commander's report, Major Shan Prot said. "Let the soldiers clean up the battlefield. We will set off in two hours, otherwise Commander Weedschi should get angry."

"According to the battalion commander."

After the company commander responded, he walked over and arranged for soldiers to prepare to bury the Bulgarian militiamen who had died in the war.

Two hours later, Major Shan Prot asked a platoon to take the prisoners back. He himself led the cavalry battalion and continued to advance to the rear of Bulgaria. They left a new mound in the woods, with a mound in front of the mound. The rifle, as if to tell the world about the battle that took place here.

In Silistra, where these dead militiamen were going to rush to, Romanian troops were already everywhere. Half an hour ago, the 3rd Division had just breached the defense of a militia regiment, and now they plan to reorganize and continue to set off.

The residents of this small town looked at the Romanian invaders who had breached their homes with complex expressions. Because this will be the new territory of Romania in the future, Edel strictly ordered the army not to make excessive behaviors, so I saw that the residents here saw an army that was fierce to their relatives on the battlefield, but did not offend them after the war. .

Major General Midlor, the commander of the Third Division, was checking the results of this battle. After reading it, he said to Lieutenant Colonel Carmen, the commander of the Second Regiment, who was standing in front of him. "It defeated the 3,200 defensive enemies at the cost of 187 casualties, and only allowed them to run away more than 800 people, which was very good.

Facing the teacher's compliment, Lieutenant Colonel Karlman felt it necessary to explain. "Commander, we are able to achieve such a result this time, mainly due to the heavy firepower of our army, and the militia regiment defending here is very poorly equipped, even the Konka rifles of 40 years ago. And they still lack. Training, more than 150 meters can be terribly accurate."

Hearing Lieutenant Colonel Carmen’s explanation, Major-General Midlor knew that he considered his fully armed professional army, and the victory was not worthy of praise for such a completely civilian-level army. So he looked at the lieutenant colonel and said. "Lieutenant Colonel Karlman can't comment too much on this battle, but the situation you mentioned is very beneficial to our army This can help us reduce our losses. Okay, you go out. ."

When Lieutenant Colonel Carmen heard the words of Major General Midlow, he saluted him and walked out.

The chief of staff saw Major General Midlor drove Lieutenant Colonel Carmen out and stepped forward to persuade him. "Teacher, Lieutenant Colonel Karlman is just a bit unable to transfer, I believe it will be fine in a few days.

Major General Midlow heard the chief of staff's persuasion and sighed. "I know all of this. In the previous training, I asked them all. Facing the German, French and Russian troops, he said that when he suddenly attacked an almost civilian armed force. But now I hope he will change his mind quickly. ."

Soon after the 3rd Division captured Silistra, the 2nd Army also captured Ruse, which is across the river from Gurigu. The 3rd Army also captured Dobric in the evening. The militias were not opponents at all. They were beaten and defeated by the Romanian army and could not stop them at all. The only thing that can delay their steps now is the 2nd Independent Brigade deployed in Varna and the newly levied 14th Division deployed in Suman .
