Facing the retreat that Zhao Daoxiao had prepared, Liu Lang smiled slightly, pointed to a place not far from this place on the map, and whispered a few more words.

Zhao Daoxiao's eyes suddenly opened, and he looked at Liu Lang in disbelief. After a long time, he shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The few battles that Commander Liu fought in Anwupo, although he beat the Eighth Division to the death, everyone only saw Commander Liu's ability to arrange fortifications. Even if Commander Liu used a surprise force to take down the heavy artillery of the Eighth Division in one fell swoop, most of them blamed the enemy commander's carelessness for the failure of the Eighth Division. But until today, I realized that if Commander Liu had given the strength of the army, it would be no longer possible to fight with the Eighth Division."

After saying that, he sighed and said, "Captain Liu is indeed the most suitable soldier I, Zhao Daoxiao, have ever seen."

"No, speaking of this, Commander Zhao is the most genius cavalry commander I, Liu Lang, have ever seen." Liu Lang complimented back seriously.

"Haha, are we praising each other?" Zhao Daoxiao felt very happy after relaxing. "I was a little surprised. Why did Commander Liu be so confident about me, Zhao Daoxiao? You know, although the Eighth Division is a remnant army, there are nearly 7,000 infantry soldiers, and I have only more than 1,000 cavalry!"

"I won't say that Commander Zhao is dedicated to serving the country and the people. The reason why I have the confidence to come to Commander Zhao to find trouble with the Eighth Division is simple. Commander Zhao fought in Nanlu Road." Liu Lang said bluntly.

"Oh? Let's hear it?" Zhao Daoxiao's expression remained unchanged, but the arrogance in his eyes still appeared on it.

The battle of Nanludao was actually the most glorious battle of Zhao Daoxiao's military in his life. This battle sent him to the brigade commander until the throne of the commander.

Even the Black Hawk Empire did not expect that they had planes, cannons and even tanks, but were blocked by the kingdom people they looked down upon for fifteen days on the Nanlu Road, with heavy casualties.

What made the Black Hawk Army feel the most painful was that the 2nd cavalry revolver of the Black Hawk Army, the ace cavalry unit, was defeated and lost in a duel with a cavalry brigade of the Kingdom Guardians.

The Black Hawk Army's cavalry regiment was about 3,000 people. At that time, the cavalry brigade under Liu Feiyun said it was a brigade, but it was actually better to say it was a regiment. There were less than 3,000 people who could survive the sky. In terms of horsemanship, the difference was not too big.

At that time, Zhao Daoxiao was a small battalion commander of the cavalry brigade, with only 300 or 400 brothers under his command.

However, judging from the horses and equipment sitting on both sides, the Kingdom cavalry at that time could not be compared with the Second Regiment. The Black Hawks' horses were all improved, tall and big horses, while on the other hand, the Kingdom was basically dominated by smaller horses, and they were naturally shorter.

In addition to the fact that horses are not good, the equipment is also far from the gap.

After World War I, the large number of machine guns used to make all countries begin to reduce their cavalry units. The reason is very simple. In the face of the dense machine gun bullets, the once invincible cavalry became a living target. In addition, the cost of cavalry is much higher than that of infantry, so it became inevitable that such troops will be gradually eliminated.

However, both the Kingdom and the Black Hawk Army chose to retain the traditional cavalry. The reason is also very simple. Their opponents do not have so many machine guns. A small team of two light machine guns in the Black Hawk Army has already made the Kingdom army jealous. Where can I cry when a company of the Kingdom is just a light machine gun?

There are two types of cavalry, one is called "light cavalry" and the other is called "lancers" or "dragoons".

The so-called "lancers" can be summarized in 8 words, that is, "marching on horseback and dismounting to fight". In other words, cavalry troops often use the advantage of fast maneuver to reach designated positions, and then the cavalry can dismount and fight, and in fact they become infantry again. The "light cavalry" is different. They march on horseback and fight on horseback.

To put it bluntly, "light cavalry" is the combat mode of cavalry in ancient times. Except for the extra shorter rifles, when charging, they fired two shots at the opponent, and then carried a saber to chop people up.

The two types of cavalry have their own advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage of "Lavenders" is that during war, at least one-third of the people must be assigned to see the horses. On the one hand, the combatants have been greatly reduced, and on the other hand, these horses are the weakness of the enemy's attack. "Light Cavalry" has no problem, but if the target is too large and the casualties are also great.

Of course, both sides chose "lancers" to avoid encountering the enemy's tightly guarded defensive positions and also have certain combat effectiveness, so that they will not have to attack the other party's machine guns stupidly. Both countries are relatively poor and dare not do such a prodigal matter.

For example, the Second Cavalry Regiment of the Black Hawk Army, in addition to cavalry, is equipped with a machine gun squadron and an infantry artillery brigade, which can be used as an infantry gang at any time. In fact, there are only 2,000 cavalrymen that can be used to fight on horseback.

But the cavalry brigades on the kingdom are much less equipped. In addition to being equipped with a carriage rifle, each person has a slender sabre, and only seven or eight machine guns and only two or three mortars. It is better to say that they are "lancers" than they are light cavalry.

In other words, judging from the situation at that time, no matter how you look at it, the Black Hawk Ace Cavalry unit could crush the kingdom cavalry opposite to them, which was about the same number as them.

2,000 cavalry vs. 2,000 cavalry, the largest cavalry showdown in the Far East of the Kingdom began on the banks of the Nenjiang River in the Kingdom.

At this point, Zhao Daoxiao, the most dazzling in this battle, was the one who was the one who was dying. Although he had to fight with the Black Hawk Empire, Zhao Daoxiao did not want to die in vain, so he gave a suggestion to the cavalry brigade commander at that time. Perhaps Zhao Daoxiao was too brilliant in this battle, and even historical books did not record the name of his cavalry brigade commander Shangguan, because after this battle, Zhao Daoxiao was directly promoted to the cavalry brigade commander.

Zhao Daoxiao's suggestion was actually not complicated. He directly asked a cavalry regiment of 800 people to line up and acted as if he wanted to attack the Black Hawk Army.

The commander of the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of the Black Hawk Army immediately believed it.

They are lancers, and in addition to horses, machine guns and even infantry cannons. However, the kingdom army on the opposite side is obviously a "light cavalry" who is too poor. Taking a horse with a sabre is their only choice! The formation set up by Zhao Daoxiao is a typical light cavalry attack tactic.
