Chapter 881 Wolves

There were two waves of Russian reinforcements. One wave gathered from the eastern region of Siberia occupied by the Russians in the northwest, and the other wave came from the direction of Lake Baikal. It was fierce. The two waves of reinforcements were only a hundred miles apart. The scout reported that the Russian reinforcements were actually

It seemed that he wanted to unite troops in the northwest, gathered about 40,000 to 50,000 infantry and cavalry, attacked the southeast along the river, and rescued the city of Kurtsk.

The battlefield situation, the Ming army deployed early defenses at the junction of the Villui River and the Lena River, firmly controlling the two major rivers that were north and south, east and west. In Siberia, they could only revolve around a few major rivers, and they were not afraid of Russian troops.

On the road, the snow-cumulated water is far from meeting the drinking water needs of 40,000 to 50,000 people. Both the Russian and Ming troops had to dig ice to get water, so the junction of the two rivers is the place where the Russian troops must pass.

This is the case with the so-called blocking, attacking and attacking aid. The Ming and Russian troops did not have much choice in tactical terms.

The Ming army's position was not roasted with a lot of firewood, and the Ming army could not dig trenches in Siberia in winter, so they used large trucks and logs to build a chariot array on the ten-mile-long river bank, resisting horses, forming layers of bunkers, two

In front of the infantry of the Wanming Army was the frozen river surface at the junction of the two rivers. Twenty thousand infantrymen spread out on the river bank, controlling the range of ten miles long, and establishing a stable defense.

If the Russian army wants to attack head-on, it will have to rush over on the smooth river surface, which is very difficult.

If the Russian army detours, they can only go around ten miles away. No commander would make such a stupid choice. If the battle changes the formation and detours, it will cause great chaos to the marching army and will also make it soft.

The flanks were exposed to the Ming army on the other side of the river. More than 40,000 Ming army faithfully implemented the military philosophy of Macheng, without fighting unprepared battles, setting up positions, frontal infantry blocking, and cavalry on both wings surrounded and attacked reinforcements.

In the ninth year of Chongzhen, at the end of November.

Two Russian troops met two hundred miles northwest of Yakutsk City, and joined forces, both infantry and cavalry. Forty or fifty thousand troops were murderous in the hustle and bustle, and the Ming army's light cavalry was just a long surveillance.

, after a moment of contact, he left the battlefield and actually allowed two Russian troops to join forces. He did not carry out large-scale harassment. What was the plan for the governor?

Li Zhengming, Chen Yan, Ma Can and his generals knew very well that the Grand Governor wanted to gather the Russian troops and annihilate them in one battle. Is the Grand Governor Bai Qi's name called for nothing?

There were Bai Qi in Qin and Macheng today. They were best at fighting large-scale annihilation wars. There were many people who studied the tactics of the Grand Commander and Bai Qi. They were really aware of the analysis.

Killing, attacking, annihilation, and pursuing defeated enemies in field battles are all appearances. Both of them are good at using surprise weapons in command style, fighting without any rules, nor sticking to the rules, or raiding for a long distance, or exploring their hearts.

, or lure the enemy into depth, divide and surround, and truly achieve the ultimate goal of the eight-character proverbs about the military without constant force and the water without constant shape.

At the end of November, the city of Yakutsk became strangely calm.

The Ming army suddenly changed its tactics and its attack on the Far East fortress dropped sharply. Every day, artillery only bombarded the city. The siege infantry hid in the trenches to make fires to keep warm, and teams of infantry hid in the

The trenches were roasting on fire, eating Siberian game, and surrounding them without attacking them.

On the city wall, in a triangle fort.

Colonel Sasha used a telescope to observe the movements of the Ming army. Tens of thousands of Ming troops surrounded but did not attack. Every day, a large number of cavalry went around the city to the northwest. Colonel Sasha's mind was as clear as a mirror in his mind, and the northwest must

There are a large number of reinforcements from the Russian army. Isn’t this a standard tactic of siege and aid? Can Europeans fight aid? Of course, they can do it. Europeans usually attack aid.

Two hundred years ago, the Duke of Bokendad, Charlie, was a master of siege and aid.

Looking at the large number of cavalrymen who were moving around the city to the northwest, Colonel Sasha was confused for a while. Thinking of his painful childhood, the rolling eyes suffered in the army, the balance finally tilted and decided to surrender to the Ming Kingdom.

Be a leader, and tomorrow we will launch a rebellion and open the city gate, put down the suspension bridge, and connect the Ming army into the city, breaking the city in one fell swoop. To offer the city, we naturally have to contact the Ming army outside the city, so Colonel Sasha arranged two hearts

, tonight, he hung it outside the city with a rope to inform the Ming army.

At the same time, the northwest of the Weiliuyi River.

Forty-eight thousand soldiers marched on the vast land of Siberia. The knights in blue uniforms and distinctly armored menacingly held high vulture flags and sang military songs, and lined up in marching columns and jostled on the horse's back.

The red faces were full of two words, arrogant. Russia did not have a standing army, but there were a dragon cavalry regiment and Hussar regiment composed of nobles and knights, which were in line with the European lances.

Russian knights cannot defeat European strong army, not too strong or too weak. Just like this country's usual character, they are warlike and rude but not good at fighting. However, the nobles and knights inherited another major European tradition, arrogant.

, arrogant. About five thousand noble cavalry lined up on both wings, singing loud military songs, majestic march, and surrounded by eight thousand Cossack light cavalry.

Under the protection of 13,000 light and heavy cavalry, 35,000 Russian infantry braved the cold wind and marched hard under the banner. Under the guidance of a blue military flag, one company of infantrymen was sitting in carriages after another.

He curled up on a donkey and avoided the cold wind. Behind him were a large number of armed civilians who had no animals to ride and were armed with all kinds of weapons.

This is a noisy army, with a blue flag waving in the wind, and the military band riding on the high horse playing and singing, gongs and drums, which is in sharp contrast with the silent Ming army. This noisy army is far away.

From a distance, it looked like a huge mole with a large head and a long tail. Ten thousand high-spirited cavalrymen walked in front, leaving a large number of walking armed civilians far behind.

In addition to the Ming light cavalry, the specialty of Siberian, wild wolf, monitored this army from afar.

On the Siberian wasteland in winter, hungry wild wolves squatted on the snow, quietly monitoring the noisy army, and their bright red tongues spit out. However, these wild wolves did not expect that this group was far from Europe.

The bald tailed wolf that came was not their prey, but greedy wild beasts. The pair of greedy eyes had long been staring at the wolves.

As soon as the wolves appeared, the Cossacks first had red eyes and rode over in groups.

Bang bang bang bang!

The Cossacks ran everywhere in the wilderness, hunting wolves with muskets and bows and arrows. Soon, some armed civilians with horses could not suppress their greed and joined the hunt, but even fought for prey.

Around several wolf corpses, shooting at each other, shooting fired. The Russian commander seemed to have no intention of getting involved with the Cossacks, and sat and watched hundreds of greedy armed civilians be shot to death by the more greedy and cruel Cossacks.
