When the letter from Vlasov, the warlord of Nerchinsk (Nerchinsk), reached the hands of Bashkov, the warlord of Yeniseysk, Bashkov was having a headache with the Ming army in Outer Mongolia.
Chen Bangyan, the governor of Mongolia in the Ming Dynasty, was a ruthless man. When he saw Sun Jinding launching an offensive against the Rakshasa people in Nuergan and Heilongjiang, he did not want to let Sun Jinding enjoy the great achievements of the Northern Expedition alone. He also wanted to gain some military exploits in Outer Mongolia.
Governor Chen is a wonderful man. On the one hand, he still opened the trade with the Rakshasa people in the five places of Kemukemqik, Kenzhemada, Kyaktu, Arushuluk and Toktor; on the other hand, he allowed Kulun
The commander-in-chief, Ma Xin, the commander-in-chief of Kyaktu, Bao Bao, the Marquis of Karaqin, Tuba Seleng, and Prince Horqin's son, Bier Tahar, stationed troops at the border. They also called upon Tuxietu, Zasaktu, Chechnya, and Sanyinnuo.
The tribesmen of Yan gathered more than ten thousand troops and sharpened their swords.
Bashkov did not dare to send troops to rescue Nerchinsk, fearing that once the main force was far away, the Ming army would take advantage of the situation and seize the city of Yeniseysk. He had to write a letter to his old subordinate Vlasov to explain his difficulties while sending people to ride.
Quickly report to Moscow for help.
Franzbekov, the governor of the Yakutsk military district, appointed Yakutsk commander-in-chief Ivan Padelin to lead 600 musketeers to reinforce the city of Yaksa.
Vlasov's letter of distress reached Moscow, and Tsar Alexei hurriedly convened Morozov, Miloslavsky, Nikon, Kister, Pleseyev and other important ministers to discuss the Nerchinsk strategy.
The position is extremely important and must be saved.
"You all tell me, who is more suitable for me to send to lead the troops to Siberia for rescue?" The tsar seriously solicited the opinions of the ministers.
"Your Majesty, Butask military commander Moskvikin has rich experience in fighting near Heilongjiang, and his faith is very pious." Patriarch Nikon introduced the Russian veteran colonist Moskvikin.
Tsar Alexei nodded and shook his head.
The nod is because Moskvikin has thirty years of colonial experience and is very familiar with the Heilongjiang River Basin; the shake of the head is because Moskvikin is old, a sixty-year-old man, and he may lose his energy in a fierce war. Seeing that the Tsar did not agree with Nikon's suggestion, Interior Minister Morozov suggested: "Your Majesty, extraordinary times call for extraordinary people. Why don't you send General Boyakov?"
Contrary to the situation just now, this time Tsar Alexei shook his head first and then nodded.
I shake my head because this Boyakov has such a bad reputation that he has a nickname: "The Man-Eating Devil".
Cannibalism is true. In 1643, the then Yakutsk governor Peter Golovin, in compliance with the tsar's decree to continuously expand territory, ordered the clerk Vasily Boyakov to lead his troops to the Chingchili River and Heilongjiang.
River Basin Exploration. This clerk was not a secretary, but a high-ranking Russian political and military official. Boyakov established a winter camp in Umulekan in the Jinqili River Basin. He was harassed by Daur cavalry and suffered from food shortages.
Dilemma. So, the ruthless man resolutely ordered the Cossacks to "eat the foreigners who were killed."
Incredibly, this matter spread quickly. Even the Russian scholar Vasilyev said, "After that battle, the Cossacks ate 50 foreigners" and "Poyakov's actions left a lasting impression on the residents of Heilongjiang."
The impression is so profound that when you think of Cossacks, you will think of torture, abduction, death and cannibalism."
From then on, Poyakov got the nickname "Man-eating Devil". Even the Russians themselves were horrified when he mentioned his name. How could such a cruel and vicious person lead an army? Therefore, Tsar Alexei, Mr.
Shaked his head.
He nodded again because although this man was cruel and had no moral bottom line, he was very prestigious in the army and was known as a "brave and decisive man". He was also a fanatical colonist and once wrote a letter to the court.
The report said: "Wherever the Russian expedition went, they not only taxed the local residents, but also submitted their lands under the rule of the Tsar, and made the local people the eternal slaves of the Tsar."
The young tsar was quite satisfied with his courage to pioneer and fight.
Seeing that His Majesty the Tsar was both satisfied and dissatisfied with Moskvitin and Boyakov, the Tsar's father-in-law, Grand Duke Miloslavsky, introduced a new candidate: "Your Majesty, why don't you send General Peter Golovin to lead the troops?
?He is Poyakov's old commander, and his military experience is no less than that of Moskvikin. If he is made the chief general, and Moskvikin and Poyakov are deputy generals, he will definitely be able to defeat the Ming people.
The Golovin family is a major noble in Russia and deeply trusted by the royal family. Peter Golovin served as the governor of Yakutsk. In another time and space, F. A. Golovin was also the negotiator of the Treaty of Nerchinsk. Hearing Grand Duke Miloslavsky mention Peter Golovin's name, Tsar Alexei nodded repeatedly.
The generals of the expeditionary force were quickly determined. Golovin, Moskvitin, and Boyakov led 2,000 Cossack cavalry, dragoons, and 1,000 horse-drawn military supplies, and quickly rushed to Nerchinsk. After passing through
When passing through the Borsk Military District, the warlord Shcherbatov added a thousand Cossack infantry to them; when passing through the Tomsk Military District, the warlord Stadukhin added a thousand musketeers to them.
Looking at this army of four thousand people, Peter Golovin pinched his chin with satisfaction. In the vast and sparsely populated Siberia, this is already a rare army.
??
Sun Guangwei's army came to the area of Muhe, Wei and Mohe. There is the Rakshasa city of Yaksa, and there are 1,500 Rakshasa people, to be precise, 1,000 Rakshasa soldiers and 500 Rakshasa surrenders.
Wenkot soldiers.
The general manager of Yaksa is Pedun, who has a very calm personality and calmly arranges his troops for defense.
The reason why he is so calm is because he has confidence in the topography of this city. Yaksa, which means "collapsed river bay" in Jurchen language, is located on the opposite bank of the Emur River estuary, straddling the land and water. Heilongjiang is divided here.
Two, surrounding a small island (ancient city island). The Rakshasa people established the ancient city of Yakesa in the east of the Yangtze River, built a fort on the ancient city island, and established a stronghold in the Niuman area outside Yakesa. They were horns to each other.
Impregnable.
The Rakshasa people were able to build a city here back then, thanks to the notorious "man-eating demon" Poyakov. The demon was besieged by the Daur people. After escaping, he threatened that as long as he sent 300 troops and built three
Fortress, Heilongjiang can be conquered. He brought back a lot of information about the Heilongjiang Basin and proposed a plan to invade the Heilongjiang Basin by force, which attracted the attention and approval of the Rakshasa court. According to his suggestions, the Rakshasa people established the Yaksa here.
City.
With such a strong city defense and Heilongjiang as his back, Beidun thought that the Ming army could not do anything to him. Huh, Yaksa is not Kamarsk Fort!
