Zhang Zongling smiled knowingly, and the army all had a blind worship of the emperor.
If he knew that Zhu Youxiao did not remember the name of Krasnoyarsk on the Trans-Siberian Railway, but only remembered that it was the intersection of the Yenisey River and another river, so he said this, he would not know what he was saying.
Would you smile so happily?
Since His Majesty the Emperor said that the next train station would be at the intersection of the Yenisei River and the Kacha River, Zhang Zongling led a brigade to protect the officials of the Railway Ministry for investigation, and at the same time sent people to contact Xue Boling and Sun Fumin.
Two armies.
Xue Boling's mission was to explore along the Yenisei River, and Sun Fumin wanted to explore the Ob River farther west, so the two armies set out from the North Sea together and separated after more than a thousand miles to the west.
Sun Fumin went to Going west, Xue Boling began to explore downstream along the Yenisei River.
The Ming army only explored downstream along the Yenisei River for a day when they discovered a Rakshasa fortress.
In fact, it is not a fortress, just a small village composed of wooden houses, but you can see cavalry with sabers on the road in the village.
Along the way, Xue Boling saw no trace of the Rakshasa people except for a few Wazai people.
Now it is obvious that the cavalrymen are not Wacians.
Wacians do not know how to repair houses.
Xue Boling felt relieved after finally meeting the Rakshasa people.
The Rakshasa people meant merit and also meant that they could better understand the specific conditions of unknown places.
The Ming army did not attack rashly.
Xue Boling first sent a battalion to take a long way to the back of the village to block the Rakshasa people's retreat.
An hour later, the Guards formed a formation and pushed towards the village.
Soon, the Cossack cavalry discovered the Ming army and immediately blew their whistles.
A large number of soldiers poured out of the house.
After getting on their horses, they began to form a team.
In about ten minutes, they roared towards the Ming army.
Xue Boling praised: "These cavalry are quite strong, I'm afraid they are much stronger than the Wacians."
His adjutant smiled and said: "The number is too small.
If there are ten thousand people charging together, they can still pose some threat to us."
Yes, there were only more than two hundred Cossack cavalry, and the Ming army started firing when the cavalry rushed a hundred steps away.
This time the first row opened fire, followed three seconds later by the second row, and so on.
By the time the sixth row opened fire, fifteen seconds had passed, and the remaining cavalrymen were less than fifty steps away from the Ming army.
Fifteen seconds were enough for the soldiers in the first row to change their ammunition.
However, the commander of the Ming army did not issue an order to continue shooting because it was no longer necessary.
A total of three cavalrymen rushed in front of the Ming army, but they had already been lost.
Weapon, murmuring something, putting an ugly smile on his face, trying his best to make the Ming army understand their good intentions.
The commander of the Ming army held a long sword and stared at the three cavalrymen.
He waited until they dismounted before inserting the sword into the scabbard.
Not only the Ming army did not understand what the three cavalry said, but also the Buryat people who came to guide them, so everyone was stunned together, not knowing how to communicate.
Xue Boling said: "Go forward and arrest them all.
There will always be someone who understands Mongolian, so that will be fine."
The Ming army's platoon guns knocked down about twenty cavalrymen.
The other cavalrymen, with their superb riding skills and extraordinary agility, managed to escape the fatal bullets and were only slightly injured.
This made Xue Boling admire again.
Because there were three cavalrymen making show in front, the other cavalrymen allowed the Ming army to come forward, take away their weapons and lead their horses away.
Sure enough, some of the Cossacks understood Mongolian, so with the translation of the Buryati guide, Xue Boling had a difficult conversation with the Cossack leader.
The Cossacks were not a nation, but a collection of people who escaped from the rule of the Kipchak Khanate.
They are mainly Slavs and live mainly in the steppes of eastern Europe.
Cossacks mean free people in Turkic.
They really love freedom.

The King of Poland promised to retain their autonomy, so they served Poland.
Some Cossacks also served the Rakshasa State.
The leader of this group of Cossacks was the centurion Arat.
They were hired by Rakshasa merchants and ordered to live in the east in search of possible gold mines and furs.
The Rakshasa people thought this place was very good, so they built a village here and planned to use it as a base for collecting furs and digging for gold in the future.
Down the Yenisei River from here, there is a Rakshasa castle called Karisliya a few hundred miles away.
There are about 600 Cossack cavalry stationed there and about 1,000 people living there.
After Xue Boling heard this, he said to Alat: "If we guarantee your freedom, the price is to fight for us, including the Rakshasa people of the same species as you, will you be willing?"
Alat said: "We are free people with no national ties.
As long as you really give us freedom and guarantee our freedom, we are willing to fight for you.
But first, we must say that we advocate freedom, so military discipline It should be formulated by ourselves, and we are light cavalry and we are not willing to dismount and fight. " Xue Boling smiled and said: "We don't need you to dismount and fight.
As for the issue of military discipline, as long as you obey the order, everything else is not a problem."
Alat said: "Then we can work for you."
Xue Boling said: "If you can make the Cossacks of Karislia surrender to us, I can appoint you as the commander."
The military organization of the Cossacks is divided into three levels: commander, centurion and captain.
Alat is now a centurion. .
Alat said happily: "I am willing to serve the general."
Xue Boling temporarily named the place Heyang, leaving more than 200 people to guard it, and then he was led by the Cossacks to the lower reaches of the Yenisei River.
After walking more than five hundred miles, we finally arrived near Karislia.
Alat said: "I can make them surrender by going alone."
Xue Boling smiled.
He was not arrogant enough to think that Alat had surrendered wholeheartedly, nor did he think that he alone could persuade all the Cossacks to surrender.
The biggest possibility was that he would never return and run away with the Cossacks inside, so he rejected Alat's suggestion and said: "We must fight first, and then consider surrendering after fighting."
The Ming army surrounded Karislia, and then asked Alat to come forward to persuade him to surrender.
Alat stepped forward and said: "People inside, listen, go and ask Commander Menitz to come quickly.
I have important news to report to him."
Menitz came to the top of the city and said: "Alat, have you been captured by these barbarians?
If I have any news to report to you, please tell me
