Reborn Ming Dynasty as Emperor

Chapter 400 Greedy Cossack Cavalry
When the Cossack cavalry fell into an embarrassing situation where even the first brigade of the Praetorian Guards could not chew, the other brigades of the First Guards Army and the infantry of the Fourth Army also came ashore one after another.

As the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard, Lu Xiangsheng also met with Chang Yanling, and Chang Yanling also informed Lu Xiangsheng of the situation at this time.

After hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng didn't show any expression of worry or joy, but said calmly: "Since we're here, we can't just repel this group of Cossack cavalry. , no matter who they are, they must all be wiped out, so that they will never come back, so our key now is how to wipe out this group of Cossack cavalry!"

"It is easy to repel it, but it is indeed difficult to wipe it all out. For this kind of highly mobile cavalry, we still cannot wipe them out in one go, unless we wait for the rest of the brother troops to arrive one after another and disperse them with the help of our infantry. We formed a network with various important places, and at the same time used artillery and flying battalions to kill and wound the Cossack cavalry in large numbers at the beginning of the war, causing their main force to collapse. "

As the Imperial Guard, Chang Yanling commanded Tongzhi. Although he directly commanded the First Army and the First Brigade of the First Army, his position in the Imperial Guard was second only to Lu Xiangsheng and Liu Ruyu, so he could also get a few positions under Lu Xiangsheng. sentence.

Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help pointing at Chang Yanling: "Speaking of which, it would be a good thing for you to let the first brigade take the lead. Now it is a good thing to bite these tens of thousands of Cossack cavalry first. Otherwise, it will really wait until all my troops gather. I am afraid that Nido will not be so foolishly waiting for us to annihilate him. If he is more vigilant and good at judging the situation, he should withdraw directly to East Siberia now. Now it is better to let him be caught between my local defenders and guards. Between the First Brigade of the Army, let him have a taste of tasteless, while we take advantage of this, we will make our nets tighter!"

As he said that, Lu Xiangsheng put his hands on the four corners of the marching map, stretched it out on the ground, grabbed a handful of snow to press the four corners, and then made gestures on the map, saying: "In order not to startle the enemy, the first army will The rest of the [-]st Brigade and the [-]th Army divided into two routes, bypassed Temple Street and Longshanwei, made a big roundabout hundreds of miles away, and finally assembled at Mutar. So as not to be discovered by the Cossack rangers!"

"At the same time, the [-]st Brigade should properly show its weakness to the enemy. We must let Oknido feel that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it. Furthermore, we will find out where the [-]rd Army, the Air Battalion, and the [-]nd Army's Artillery Battalion have marched along the way. Now the general attack and relief The defenders are waiting for them!"

……

The second army and the third army of the imperial guards who marched by land were quite smooth when they first marched in Monan, but once they passed Mobei, the weather became worse and the roads became more difficult. In the primeval forest where no one has set foot, the imperial guards have to be careful not only of wolves, tigers and leopards, but also of cavalry attacks by Jiannu and other primitive people scattered everywhere.

As a result, the marching speed became slower and slower. Fortunately, the first batch of Imperial Guards and Dongjiang soldiers who crossed the Outer Xing'an Mountains had already made some marks and opened up many trails, so that the second and third armies would not get lost. direction.

When the Second Army and the Third Army of the Imperial Guard arrived less than a hundred miles away from Longshanwei, they finally met the scouts of the Imperial Guard. After the encirclement of the Cossack cavalry had begun, Obai and Fu Dahai couldn't help but smile at each other, and could only reply that they would follow the order of Du Du division to launch an attack on the Cossack cavalry immediately after the soldiers in the headquarters had a short rest for a day.

In the afternoon of the next day, Oknido, the commander of the Cossack cavalry, saw the box full of gold and dozens of carts of food discarded by the first brigade of the Janissaries when they retreated. They are very generous, there are only a few thousand people in the area with so much food and gold. No wonder the defenders of Temple Street and Longshanwei City can hold on for so long. I am afraid that they have also hoarded a lot of food and treasures. come down."

"Your Excellency Okonedo, it can be seen that the grain and gold and silver items discarded by the yellow dwarves are scattered in a very scattered manner, which shows that they retreated in a hurry, so they had to discard these boxes of treasures and carts. In my opinion, we might as well take advantage of the victory to pursue them, maybe we can coerce them to hand over more treasures, at least the firearms in their hands are very tempting, if they are obtained by us, we may be able to unify the Raksha Kingdom The whole of Europa!"

After a confidant general of Okonedo said, Okonedo couldn't help asking: "It's just puzzling that these yellow dwarfs have very sharp firearms, and they were also very strong at the beginning. It became so vulnerable that the casualties did not appear to be serious."

"Your Excellency, in my opinion, I'm afraid that their ammunition may not be enough and the ammunition will be exhausted. Look at the bullet casings and dismantled wooden boxes all over the floor. I'm afraid it's for ammunition. Once the firearms in their hands are gone Ammunition naturally has no way to pose a threat to our Cossack warriors, so they are in a hurry to retreat."

When this person said this, Okonedo nodded suddenly and said: "You are right, the army arriving now is probably only a small group of troops that arrived first, so the ammunition is not prepared enough. If we don't take advantage of it Annihilate the main force of the army before the future, I'm afraid there will be no more chances. In this case, immediately pass the order and pursue this enemy army with all your strength. After annihilating this small yellow dwarf army, decide whether to withdraw or continue Go ahead."

It can be seen that Oknido also has the intention to retreat immediately at this time. The defenders of Temple Street and Longshanwei and the first brigade of the Imperial Guard who have confronted him several times have made him realize that he seems to be provoking a If the powerful empire lasted for a long time, his Cossack cavalry would not be able to take advantage of it or even die here. What's more, getting the gold and food at this time was enough for his Cossack cavalry to return to the tribe.

But people are always greedy. Chang Yanling was sure about the Cossack cavalry, so that the First Brigade of the Imperial Guard deliberately threw away all the food and property of the whole brigade here while showing the enemy's weakness, so that the Cossack cavalry Get more greedy and forget the way back.

In the end, the highly mobile Cossack cavalry pursued the [-]st Brigade of the Praetorian Guards. Of course, the [-]st Brigade of the Praetorian Guards also deliberately exposed their whereabouts to attract the Cossack cavalry.

But just when Oknido and other Cossack cavalry were about to launch an attack on the first brigade of the Praetorian Guards, countless black-smoky shells flew over like snowflakes, and exploded directly in the middle of his army. It was so explosive that people turned their backs!
"What's going on here?" Orkney was stunned for a moment, and then looked back, only to see countless artillery and troops emerging from the hillside in the distance, and there were even countless strange black behemoths, as well as figures in the sky. Something like a ball is floating.
