In attacking a position artillery would first open fire at from 2000 to 3000 yards, but as the infantry gained ground it would move forward to more advanced positions. Escort. In exposed positions, in order to protect a battery from skirmishers, and attacks on the flanks and rear, a troop of cavalry or a company of infantry is often attached to it as escort, and is entirely under the direct...ion of the officer commanding the battery. Before advancing to a new position during an action, if there is any chance of danger, a few scouts should be sent forward to reconnoitre ; vedettes should also be posted on the exposed flank and rear whilst a battery is in action. Objective of Artillery. The ruling principle both in attack and defence is that artillery should fire on whatever is most formidable or most conspicuous at the moment.
