The headquarters of the Russian 2nd Army is located about ten kilometers behind the line of defense. After witnessing the fierce German artillery fire, Admiral Samsonov was very concerned about his own safety. He was afraid that his headquarters would be hit by German artillery fire. In that case, there will be no bones left.
On the morning of the 21st, Admiral Samsonov got up late because he drank two bottles of vodka last night. The war was not going well, so that he was in a very bad mood. If it weren't for the fact that all the German civilians in the war zone had been relocated, he really wanted to send the guards to find a few German women to vent their anger. However, there wasn't even a commoner around, let alone a beautiful woman.
As for finding a woman from the Kingdom of Poland, this is feasible. But Admiral Samsonov did not have the guts. If General Ivan Jilinsky knew about it, it would be troublesome. Although, everyone has the rank of general. But Admiral Ivan Jilinsky is the commander of the front army and the former chief of staff of the Russian army. His base ratio and qualifications are not comparable to that of Admiral Samsonov.
So, General Samsonov had to drink to drown his sorrows. Although, alcohol is not allowed in the military. But this military rule is not strictly enforced in the Russian army. Russians are all alcoholics, from generals to ordinary soldiers. If they don’t drink, they will feel uncomfortable and have no combat effectiveness. Therefore, the military law department had no choice but to turn a blind eye to this.
"General, something is wrong. The Germans have launched a large-scale counterattack." An officer reported to General Samsonov.
"Well, I see. Order the troops on the front line to stop the German attack according to the predetermined plan." General Samsonov said nonchalantly.
The German army will launch a counterattack at the right time, which did not exceed General Samsonov's expectations. Therefore, when the Russian army launched an offensive, they were also actively building fortifications. Although, the fortifications of the Russian army are completely incomparable with the German army. However, Admiral Samsonov believes that there is no problem in stopping the German attack with a large number of Russian troops and fortifications. As long as the 1st Army succeeds, the battle will be reversed.
"Yes, General." The officer immediately went to convey the order.
Admiral Samsonov began to wash in an orderly manner, and then had breakfast. Although, the German shelling was very violent, which made him frown from time to time. However, Admiral Samsonov always believed that the Russian army could not defeat the German army when attacking, but even if it could not defeat the German army when defending, there should be no problem in a tie.
However, General Samsonov soon learned that the ideal is plump, but the reality is the backbone. The gap between reality and his imagination was too great.
General Sai Samsonov had just finished eating bread and started drinking milk when a staff officer ran in in a panic.
"General, our front line of defense has been breached by the Germans. Now, the Germans are attacking our depths." An officer reported with a mournful face.
"What? How could this be? How could the German attack be so powerful?" Admiral Samsonov's face was full of disbelief. No matter how **** the combat effectiveness of the Russian army is, it is not so easy to break through with the fortifications.
"General, the Germans used a new type of weapon, covered in iron armor, capable of firing shells and machine gun bullets. We couldn't threaten the opponent at all, so we were defeated." The officer looked in shock.
General Samsonov frowned: "What are you talking about? Could it be the devil's weapon?"
"General, there are rumors on the front that the Germans have mastered the devil's weapon and are invincible!" said the officer.
"Fart!" Admiral Samsonov cursed. In this regard, he will not believe it. In his opinion, this is clearly an excuse for those cowards who lost the battle on the front line. But even if you want to find an excuse, you should find a more reliable one. Devil's weapon? This is too unreliable.
"No, no matter what, the line of defense cannot be breached. Otherwise, the entire Second Army will be finished." General Samsonov made a decision after walking around the office twice.
"Come here, order General Andrei and General Karsky to lead their troops to stop the Germans. The other troops should be gathered immediately. No matter what, we must stop the Germans." Samsonov went up Will order to.
"Yes, General." The officer immediately went to give the order.
Andrei and Karsky are both commanders of the Cossack Cavalry Division of the Russian Army. Two Cossack cavalry divisions totaled tens of thousands of people. This is the most elite Cossack cavalry! Since the Cossack cavalry worked for the tsar, it has always been a sharp sword in the hands of the tsar. Even when Napoleon Megatron Europe, he also attached great importance to the Cossack cavalry.
General Samsonov believes that no matter how strong the German attack is, the powerful Cossack cavalry will definitely be able to stop the Germans. Of course, the Cossack cavalry may have paid a lot of losses, but what does that matter? As a general of the Russian Army, Samsonov also climbed out of the sea of corpses and blood, and he was used to life and death. As long as it's not your own blood, everything doesn't matter.
After receiving the order from General Samsonov, Major General Andrei and Major General Karsky began to gather the troops in their hands and began to prepare for the attack.
"The warriors of the Cossacks, the incompetent foot soldiers, defeated by the Germans, are fleeing. Once again we shall play the role of saviors. Grab your sabers, mount your steeds, and strike! Your saber, cut off the heads of the Germans, and use the blood of the Germans to forge the glory of the Cossacks. Warriors, launch an attack and defeat the Germans in one fell swoop." Major General Andre roared loudly.
"Long live! Long live the Cossacks! Long live His Majesty the Tsar!"
Tens of thousands of Cossack cavalry shouted slogans and launched an attack.
Tens of thousands of war horses rushed to the battlefield, and the horseshoes trampled on the ground, making a rumbling sound, just like thunder, the scene was very amazing.
These Cossack cavalry rushed to the battlefield with an indomitable momentum. In the era of cold weapons, they are the masters of the battlefield. Even at the beginning of the twentieth century, they were symbols of invincibility. However, their myths will soon be shattered. In front of the armored troops, the cavalry is simply scum!
