The MG34 machine gun gave out a roaring roar. Under the shot of the machine gun, the Polish cavalry fell in pieces.
This is simply a unilateral slaughter!
When charging, you must use firepower to suppress your opponent. This is common sense. Now, the commander of the 21st Cavalry Regiment has made a mistake!
There are not many machine guns belonging to the cavalry. The cavalry is mainly used for impact. The infantry reconnaissance vehicle here uses 37mm guns to blast a few machine gun positions. The machine guns of the cavalry on the opposite side are dumb. Thinking that the Germans were going to escape, they stood firm instead!
In this way, the charge of the cavalry ushered in a terrible rain of bullets.
Some horses were shot, the front legs bent, and the cavalry fell off the back of the horse, but the cavalry behind could not control the speed of advancement. Although he pulled the horse hard, the horse still trampled on the body of the front cavalry. , There was a terrible roar below.
Trampled by horses is the most terrible thing for cavalry, and now, I don't know how many cavalry are going through all this!
Some cavalrymen were shot by themselves and fell off their horses without saying a word. The ownerless warhorses ran away like this.
The situation is absolutely unfavorable for the Polish cavalry, but Alex did not think about retreating.
Cavalry fights by charging. There is no word for retreat in the cavalry dictionary. Even if they are all charged, they must charge!
Alex's insistence is justified.
Gritt's machine gun stopped firing.
When Gritt replaced the third bullet chain, he unknowingly had fired out 150 bullets. The air-cooled barrel was already red at this time, and the heat-dissipating tube outside became hot.
Can't shoot anymore!
For this machine gun, after 150 rounds of bullets have been fired continuously, the barrel must be changed, otherwise, the bullets will directly enter the hot barrel, and fools know what the result will be!
But now, Glitter doesn't have a spare barrel at all. As a reconnaissance unit, they can't continue to fight. They are of the type of running in a face-to-face encounter. One barrel is enough!
The machine guns here stopped firing successively.
"Rush, keep rushing!" Alex rode his horse, leaning his body tightly on the back of the horse. Just now, with this action, he avoided a lot of bullets, but now, he is happy Seeing that the opponent's machine gun was dumb, they knew what was going on. Taking advantage of this opportunity, they could rush over!
Throw the Molotov cocktail on the opponent's armored car! Use your own saber to hack to death all the German scouts they were alone! Wielding his shiny saber, Alex was very excited at this moment.
He remembered that a few years ago, he wielded a saber like this, cutting down the Soviet cavalry on the opposite side one by one. At that time, the bloodshot scene made him endless aftertaste, that is the battle that the cavalry should have!
However, he was disappointed!
Just a few seconds after the machine gun was dumb, I saw a famous soldier pouring out of those wheeled infantry fighting vehicles. They were in a straggler line, lined up, kneeling, their hands, With a peculiar rifle.
The space of those infantry fighting vehicles is large enough, and one fighting vehicle can accommodate an infantry squad. There is no problem. After being improved into a reconnaissance vehicle, it still has this capacity.
When he saw the soldiers lined up, Alex was not too scared. As long as it was not a machine gun, what was so scary?
With the impact of the cavalry, the Mauser 98k on the opposite side couldn't shoot a few times at all. The firepower density was too low. For the cavalry, he rushed past!
Moreover, they lined up like this, just to give themselves a chance! He was already imagining that he could bend down and use the speed of the horse's sprint to chop off the opponent's head with a single knife!
Thinking of this, he licked his dry lips with his tongue, and he still didn't know that his life had ended.
The 7.92mm light machine gun can take care of targets within 1000 meters, while the 6.8mm "submachine gun" can calmly deal with targets within 500 meters!
Now, more than twenty soldiers are lined up, each holding a 6.8mm "submachine gun" in their hands! They quickly adjusted the speed machine to burst mode, and then, with their eyes facing the notch of the front sight, waiting for the order.
Those cavalry are getting closer!
"Fire!" the platoon leader shouted loudly at a distance of 500 meters.
Fire! All people, at this moment, all pulled the trigger, and the bullets, like a pouring rain, covered the other side!
If you still use a submachine gun with 9mm pistol ammunition, their effective range is less than 200 meters. For the cavalry, under the rain of bullets, the distance of 200 meters will be rushed in one breath!
However, 500 meters is different. This distance is the distance between life and death! When the metal storm on this side screamed past, the cavalry over there fell off their horses!
More than 20 machine guns, fire together, what is the concept? Now, the front end of the cavalry charge is equivalent to more than 20 machine guns!
Everywhere there was the sound of "submachine guns" shooting, bullets flew horizontally, and the cavalry fell from the horses one by one.
The Poles were dumbfounded.
The commander of the 21st Cavalry Regiment was dumbfounded. He watched his cavalry and rushed out of the woods. Then, they all fell. Even if the last one fell off his horse, he did not retreat.
The Polish cavalry is good! Even the German soldiers on the opposite side admire their courage, but unfortunately, this era does not belong to the cavalry anymore!
Under the gaze of the Poles in the woods the German scouts here killed all the Polish cavalry who charged, and then they quickly returned to their infantry fighting vehicles, amidst the roar, They started to retreat!
Glitter jumped into the back seat of another motorcycle and retreated with them. Behind them, the body of a company of Polish cavalry was left, as well as the concealed Polish cavalry behind them.
The captain of the cavalry regiment gritted his teeth, and the veins on his arms were violent. He could not restrain his anger, but he sensibly did not order the cavalry to continue rushing out of the woods.
"Regiment Commander, the 2nd Artillery Battalion, sent an artillery company to support us. There are 12 37mm cannons and 6 75mm mountain cannons. The armored train will be here in a while."
At this moment, a signal soldier said to the regiment leader.
There was contact with the German scouts. It is conceivable that the war would break out soon, so the brigade commander urgently mobilized reinforcements here.
With artillery and armored trains, how can it be defeated again? The head of the group gritted his teeth: "Great, wait a moment, the main force of the Germans will come over and avenge our brothers!"
