Shoot-and-scoot
Shoot-and-scoot (alternatively, fire-and-displace or fire-and-move) is an artillery tactic of firing at a target and then immediately moving away from the location from where the shots were fired to avoid counter-battery fire (e.g. from enemy artillery). Caucasian war The first recorded use of this tactic came from the Caucasian war where the Chechen Naib Talhig of Shali became famous for his shoot and scoot tactics (referred to as Nomadic artillery by Russians) in the 1830-50s. He was according to the Russian historian and professor Nikolay Smirnov one of the first commanders that used this tactic.
