A chronicle of events that led to the British involvement in the Crimean War against Russia and which led to the siege of Sevastopol and the fierce Battle of Balaclava on October 25, 1854 which climaxed with the heroic, but near-disastrous cavalry charge made by the British Light Brigade against a Russian artillery battery in a small valley which resulted in the near-destruction of the brigade due to error of judgment and rash planning on part by the inept British commanders. Written by Matthew Patay 　　译文(2): 1854年10月25日，英国轻骑兵旅在一个小山谷里向一个俄国塞瓦斯托波尔围城战发起英勇而近乎灾难性的骑兵冲锋。由于英国指挥官的判断失误和部分计划草率，轻骑兵巴拉克拉瓦战役几乎被摧毁。1854年10月25日，克里米亚战争爆发，导致英国卷入克里米亚战争，并引发了炮台和激烈的冲突。作者: Matthew Patay
