Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Cossacks' Daring Raid on an Austrian Convoy. Drawing from The War Illustrated. The caption reads:


In spite of modern conditions of warfare, which render the regular use of cavalry impossible, the redoubtable Cossacks sometimes get the opportunity to attack isolated enemy transport columns. Recently a large number of wagons were "spotted" from an observation post, and a detachment of Russian raiders hid in a wood until the Austrian camp-fires flickered out. They then charged down on the convoy, throwing hand-grenades among the wagons, which were reduced to chaos. The Cossacks then retreated to the wood followed by Hungarian cavalry, who, however, dared not pursue them into the treacherous marshes.
