Sun Fumin looked at the Tatar leader and said: "Before coming this time, Commander Xue captured some Cossack cavalry, and they have surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.
So General Cao requested that if we can capture the Cossacks who persuaded them to surrender, then try to persuade them to surrender.
But today I After looking at it, I saw that the Cossacks were able to abandon their friendly forces without hesitation and only thought about retreating to save their own lives.
They were not even willing to do a little artillery cover.
Even if such an army surrendered, I would not dare to fight alongside them.
Has it always been like this?"
The Tatar leader stood up and said: "General Sun, these Cossack cavalry are indeed very powerful.
They repelled the attacks of nomadic tribes many times in Tomsk.
But they are selfish, have disorganized military discipline, do not obey orders during battle, and treat our Tatars badly."
The people are also very exploitative.
I once heard the Rakshasa archers say that the Cossack cavalry is an army that is disliked by both enemies and friendly forces. " Sun Fumin nodded and said: "This conclusion was made by their friendly forces, so it should have a certain degree of credibility.
Since they are selfish, it is natural for them to surrender when they encounter a powerful opponent.
We followed General Cao's instructions and tried our best to persuade the Cossacks to surrender, but we cannot trust them and do not turn our backs to them. " Artelie said: "If the Cossacks surrender, our Jurchen infantry can monitor them.
Once they show their resistance, we will cling to them and wait for the firecrackers to wipe them out in one fell swoop."
Jurchen soldiers use spears, which are suitable for When dealing with the Cossack cavalry, Artelie said this, firstly, to show his loyalty, and secondly, to show off in front of the Mongols that he could restrain the cavalry.
Crete remained silent.
This honest Mongolian man didn't like to show off, and he didn't even understand that Atelie was showing off.
In his opinion, just listen to the battalion commander and fight bravely.
Why bother with the rest.
Sun Fumin said: "Now that the artillery of the Rakshasa people has been eliminated by us, the cannons of the Rakshasa people can still be used to defend the fortress.
In addition, we also have small cannons to defend the city, so we only need to keep A thousand people can protect the safety of the fortress, and then the others can go out to fight the Cossacks.
This time we have infantry and cavalry.
As long as we deal with them carefully, we should be able to deal with the Cossack cavalry."
The artillery director said: "Battalion Commander, we only need to keep the city defense artillery, and other artillery can follow."
Sun Fumin nodded and said: "The spear infantry is at the front, followed by the artillery and gunmen.
This is the basic formation to deal with the Cossack cavalry.
Your artillery will bring small cannons and use explosive shells to attack the Cossacks.
The effect should be very good. , so don’t worry, you are indispensable.”
He continued: "Crete sent out a reconnaissance force to first find the location of the Cossack cavalry.
In such weather, it is impossible for them to live in tents for a long time.
They should have a place to stay.
Once we find a place, we can remove them ” Crete saluted with a military salute, but still did not speak.
Sun Fumin waved his hand and said, "Is there anything else you want to add?"
Seeing that the others were silent, Sun Fumin said: "That's it, let's conduct reconnaissance first and be ready to attack the enemy at any time."
Crete personally led a team to conduct a reconnaissance and discovered a small fortress fifty miles away from Tomsk.
He chose to retreat before the Cossack cavalry could chase him out.
Now that he had found his opponent's location, Sun Fumin decided to take the initiative.
So on the next morning, he led 500 spear infantry, 500 cavalry, and 1,500 musketeers towards the Cossack cavalry fortress.
Ten miles away from the fortress, the team slowed down, and the Mongolian cavalry kept galloping back and forth, reporting the enemy's movements.
"The enemy is silent and can advance."
"The enemy's fortress gate is open, and sporadic cavalry are dispatched.
You can continue to advance."
"The enemy has about a thousand cavalry coming out of the fort, and it may take ten minutes to get here."
Sun Fumin immediately shouted: "The infantry and firecrackers dismounted, the infantry used spears to build the first line of defense, the firecrackers were on guard behind, the artillery was mixed among the firecrackers, and the cavalry continued to remain vigilant."
This was a strategy that had been formulated a long time ago, and the cooperation of different arms had been practiced many times, so after two minutes, the troops were already in formation.

The entire formation resembled a large semicircle, and a large number of horses were driven near the gap in the circle. , they didn’t know that the war was coming, and they were still pacing leisurely and gnawing on the grass.
Bosak looked at the heavily guarded Ming army in front and couldn't help but frown.
He was indeed a little afraid of the long-range firecrackers of the Ming army, but now he was not near the city, but in the wild.
He happened to be a Cossack.
Favorite battlefield.
Therefore, although he was a little annoyed that the Ming army's formation had no loopholes, he believed that in front of the Cossack cavalry, even if there were no loopholes, they could find loopholes.
With a wave of his hand, a thousand Cossack cavalry began to run towards the spear infantry.
A sneer appeared on Atairie's lips.
The Jurchens had fought many battles with various Mongolian tribes.
He knew the effect of spears against cavalry very well.
Now the Cossacks were charging directly into the spearmen.
It was no different from dying.
However, the Cossacks did not hit the spear directly at all.
When they were about 200 steps away from the spear, Bosak shouted, and the Cossack cavalry began to turn and swept diagonally to both sides.
Because the distance was not suitable, the gunmen did not fire and watched the Cossacks laughing wildly as they passed by the formation.
Atelie's face was livid, and the Cossack's laughter was like a slap in the face.
Sun Fubing smiled and said: "Don't worry about them, they want to anger us and disrupt our formation.
We stood motionless while they had to control the reins on their horses, so we took advantage."
Sun Fumin shouted again: "Get ready, fire gun soldiers.
The enemy will get closer next time to test our range, so when they turn around next time, fire directly.
How many people can be hit?"
" Sure enough, the Cossacks turned around in a circle and rushed over again, screaming.
This time they were closer to the Guards.
When they turned, the Cossacks close to the Guards drew their long bows and fired.
Want to shoot at the Ming army.
At this time, the Guards' muskets fired.
As the muskets sounded, the Cossacks on the near side drew their bows and were knocked off their horses by bullets.
Atairie was overjoyed and laughed loudly, and then began to curse in Jurchen dialect.
Neither the Ming army nor the Rakshasa people could understand what he was scolding, but looking at his cheerful look, they knew that what he was scolding was definitely not good.
Sun Fumin smiled and said: "Send out a team of infantry and stab those who are still alive on the ground to death, then come back quickly and don't clean up the battlefield
