1:72 Lifeguard Cossaks 1812-1214

The Russian army at the end of the 18th century was perhaps the largest and perhaps one of the strongest in Europe. During the reign of Catherine II the Great (1762-1796) she won several important victories in the wars with Turkey, won the war with Poland in 1792 and participated in the suppression of the Kosciuszko uprising in 1794. Also in the course of wars with revolutionary France (1792-1799) she did not show her wrong side. However, the defeats at Austerlitz (1805) and Ilava Prusska, and especially at Friedland (1807), necessitated changes in the Russian army, which affected its cavalry, including the Cossacks. At the outset, it is worth noting that the Cossack units at that time were treated in the Russian army as irregular, designed primarily to conduct the widely understood so-called. "Little War", especially insurance for army or patrol marches. However, they were also used in battles, as exemplified by the Battle of Borodino in 1812. The armament of soldiers from these units is diverse and shows significant differences between the respective regiments. In general, however, most of the Cossacks were armed with spears and swords. Cavalry cannons transported in Ulster were used as additional weapons, but their number is not strictly defined. Most often the Cossack regiment was divided into five hundred. For example, the Don Cossack regiment had 591 "full-time" men. On the other hand, two or three regiments were formed into a brigade, which in turn were often assigned to regular troops.
