The middle-aged man looked at the map, picked up the binoculars and looked around at the places marked on the map, and his face was full of greed."
At the beginning, the Mongol iron cavalry rampaged in Europe and Asia, enslaving our Slavic people for hundreds of years, and now it is time to collect debts from them.Whether it is Outer Mongolia or Inner Mongolia, it will be the territory of our Russia right away. ”A hideous smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face, he was the commander-in-chief of the southern expedition to Mongolia, Tukuvsky.Their family was the brother-in-law of Tsar Alexander II, and his wife was the sister of Alexander II's wife."
That's right, the Mongols have long lost the domineering of their ancestors, and now they have been reduced to a group of servants, and they still need the protection of the Han people.Your Excellency, when are we going to attack Inner Mongolia?"
asked the young man with some impatience, since the invasion of Outer Mongolia, they had never encountered any decent resistance on the steppe.In their hearts, although the Han people are equipped with advanced weapons, they are also a group of cowardly and incompetent people.Otherwise, they had already taken Outer Mongolia for so long, and the Han people only protested in the newspapers, and did not dare to send a single soldier or general."
Andre, you have to eat one bite at a time.We haven't fought against the Huaxing Army, and we don't know anything about their military strength.Now we can only make tentative provocations, and if they are really vulnerable, we will march into Inner Mongolia in a big way.I heard that the Central Plains, where the Han people are located, is even more beautiful than Inner Mongolia, and there is gold everywhere, so it would be better if we could take the Central Plains in the future. ”Tukuvsky patted the young man on the shoulder with a look of yearning, signaling him not to be in too much of a hurry.The young man was none other than Colonel Andrei of the expeditionary force, a graduate of the Royal Military Academy of Russia, who held the rank of colonel at a young age and studied cavalry assault operations very well."
Your Excellency, General, give me three thousand soldiers and horses.I personally led a team to raid Guisui City in Inner Mongolia, which is only three days away from Guisui, so let me try the military strength of the Han people. ”Andre still took the initiative to ask for battle with an excited face, and his fighting spirit was stimulated by the Huaxing Army, and he was eager to fight with the Huaxing Army."
Okay, then you should be careful, if you can't beat it, don't force it, just return with the soldiers and horses quickly" Tukuvsky thought for a moment and agreed with Andrei.He is here, and if he doesn't test the true strength of Huaxing Army, he is not comfortable in his heart."
Yes, my subordinates will receive orders" Andre gave a military salute excitedly, turned over and dismounted, and waved the military flag at the herald.In a short time, a cavalry force of more than 3,000 men quickly assembled, all of them were lightly armed, carrying only enough dry food and ammunition for six days' round trip, and the rest of the useless things were handed over to others for safekeeping.The 30,000 men who went south to Mongolia were all elite Russian cavalry regiments, all equipped with the most advanced breech-loading guns, and their combat effectiveness was extremely strong."
The target is Suicheng, and we must not clash with the locals along the way, and we must not take a detour to the city, and we must not expose our actions in advance.I heard it clearly," Andrei yelled in a serious hiss."
Clear," more than 3,000 people hissed at the same time, their faces full of excited smirks.The wind swept the clouds, and the horse's hooves smoked.Andrei took the lead and soon disappeared into the territory of Inner Mongolia with more than 3,000 cavalry.Tukuvsky watched them from afar with a telescope, and secretly prayed to God for them.Outside Guisui City, Naxun Qiuketu had just assembled more than 50,000 Outer Mongolian cavalry, many of whom were still immature children.From the first day of the Russian attack on Ulaanbaatar, the last elite of the Outer Mongolian army was killed and wounded one after another.More than 100,000 elite soldiers and strong generals died in battle one after another, and in the end, less than 30,000 remained, and all of them withdrew to Inner Mongolia to retain a little bit of vitality."
Commander, do you really want to fight with the Russians" Ji Rimutu, the banner leader of the Tushetu Khan Department, asked with a worried face, not wanting to let the young man in the flag die in vain."
Commander, is the governor of Daiqin really not helping us" Mo Zhigen, the banner lord of the Chechen Khan, was also full of exhaustion, although he had obtained a lot of food and grass supplies in Guisui City, but he did not have advanced firearms, and it was his own death to fight with the Russian cavalry."
What's the matter, aren't you all scared?
We will take back our homeland in Outer Mongolia by ourselves, and we don't need to look at Dai Qin's face.He has become a servant of the Han people, and there are no more Mongolians in his eyes.Sons of Outer Mongolia, do you want to avenge the death of your loved ones," Naxun Choktu glared at the two of them, got on his horse, brandished his saber and yelled at the cavalry."
Revenge, revenge, revenge" All the cavalry had blood-red eyes, clenched the bows and arrows in their hands and roared into the sky."
That's good, all the soldiers have an order, and the target is Ulaanbaatar, Outer Mongolia.Defeat the Russians and retake their homeland," Naxun turned his horse's head, whipped his horsewhip hard, and headed straight for the steppe to the north.More than 50,000 cavalry followed, like a long black dragon, constantly wandering in the green grassland.On the second day, the sky was covered with dark clouds and a strong wind rose.There was constant thunder in the sky, from far and near, and the heat was overwhelming.The two black dragons on the ground got closer and closer, until they were two thousand meters apart, and suddenly there was a whine of horns on both sides."
An enemy has spotted enemy troops," the herald quickly sounded the alarm.Naxun Choktu was startled, and hurriedly picked up the binoculars and looked ahead, and sure enough, the road was narrow, and he saw the Russian cavalry here.They were all dressed in khaki uniforms and large round caps, which they recognized even if they had turned to ashes."
The Chechen Khan attacked the left flank, the Tushetu Khan attacked the right flank, and the rest of the men and horses followed me to advance from the center," Naxun Khantu quickly roamed the battlefield and gave orders to all the banner lords to attack.More than 50,000 cavalry soon spread out in the vast grassland, arranged in an oval shape like the wings of an eagle.The Russian cavalry also quickly lined up in battle formation, and Andrei quietly advanced with more than 3,000 cavalry.When you meet a large village, you will go around far away, and when you meet a small tribe, you will directly extinguish your mouth.Unexpectedly, more than a hundred miles away from Guisui City, I met an army of cavalry.At first, Andrei wanted to stay away, but the two sides were too close to each other, and there was no place to hide in the flat grassland.After careful observation, a sneer suddenly appeared on the corner of Andre's mouth.The opponent in front was none other than the desperate Outer Mongolian cavalry who was beaten by him.If you meet Huaxingjun, life and death have not yet been determined.But when they meet the Mongol cavalry, then they have more than 3,000 people who have the strength to fight the Mongol cavalry."
Arrange in a defensive formation" Andrei yelled, and waved the command flag in his hand.Soon more than 3,000 cavalrymen formed a circular defensive circle, and then bandaged the eyes of the horses and stuffed cotton in their ears."
Lying down" The Russian cavalry patted the horses, and soon the horses fell to the ground obediently.The soldiers calmly picked up their spears and added them to the saddles of their horses, and stared at the Outer Mongolian cavalry with black muzzles.The banner lord of the Chechen Khan, Mozhgen, attacked from the left flank, and the banner lord of the Tushetu Khan, Jizhimutu, attacked from the right flank.Soon, the 50,000 cavalry of Outer Mongolia formed a circular encirclement of the more than 3,000 cavalry of Russia.From the inside and out, all the black pressure was the neighing of war horses.A flash of lightning struck down from the dark clouds, and the raindrops the size of beans finally fell from the dark clouds, washing the grassland like a torrent of water."
Attack" Naxun Choktu roared in the middle line and waved the order flag in his hand."
Woo woo woo" The horn whistled with a dull hiss, and suddenly all the cavalry from all directions rushed towards the Russian defensive positions.The Mongolian cavalry all believed in revenge and revenge, and all the bows and arrows in their hands were pulled up, ready to shoot Lao Maozi into a hedgehog as soon as the shooting distance arrived.Andre stood in the storm with a frown, the rain sliding down his angular cheeks.His eagle-like eyes never blinked, and when the two sides were eight meters apart, he finally ordered the soldier to pull the trigger in his hand."
Let go," Andre hissed and roared, waving the order flag vigorously at all sides.The rain affected the soldier's line of sight, and it would have been possible to shoot at a distance of a thousand meters on such a flat grassland.But in order to save ammunition, Andrei forced the Mongolian cavalry into 800 meters.Dealing with the Mongol cavalry at this distance, the heavy impact of the Mongol cavalry could completely avoid the waste of bullets.The Mongol cavalry told the state of the attack, if it could not block the onslaught of the Mongol cavalry within five minutes.Then the Russian gun array will be completely dispersed and finally swallowed up.The sound of the "bang bang bang" gunfire was unusually dull in the heavy rain, much quieter than before.For a time, more than 3,000 bullets were fired at the same time in the circular gun array, and they accurately fired at the Mongolian cavalry speeding on the opposite side.The bullets passed through the rain curtain and splashed waves in the rain, as if composing a beautiful music, but the focus was destined to be stained red with blood.The trained Russian shooter was almost out of stock, and the bullet hit the abdomen of the Mongolian war horse accurately, making a dull sound, like a knife stabbing into pork, and burrowed deep into the body of the war horse.Blood splattered and horses neighed.After the first wave of shots, thousands of horses fell in wails and rolled on the ground several times before stopping.Due to inertia, the cavalry behind either stepped directly on the corpse of the dead war horse, or was tripped by the corpse of the war horse in front.Before the gunfire fell, a second wave of bullets shot out at a rapid pace.Thousands of horses fell in pools of blood, wailing helplessly on the battlefield.The Russian breech-loading rifle was imitated from the British Enfield rifle, and the Enfield Arsenal was shocked when it got a sample of the expeditionary rifle.After continuous research and improvement, a series of problems were finally overcome, and the British breech rifle was developed.Compared with the expeditionary rifle, the Enfield rifle has its own advantages in terms of performance, but it still has its own unique advantages
