The sun never sets

Moreover, the cavalry could not follow too closely. The range of a cannon was often several thousand meters, and the effective range of a rifle was also above 400 meters. In the hands of elite infantry, a rifle could have a high hit rate even at a distance of 500 meters. If they followed too closely, the cavalry would just become a target.

The rate of fire of guns and cannons is getting faster and faster, and their power is getting stronger and stronger. Cavalry has been reduced from the dominant force on the battlefield to a supporting role.

It looks impressive to have 30,000 or 40,000 cavalry, but what's the use? In this era, whether it is attack or defense, without well-trained infantry, cavalry can't play much role at all.

Unless they adopt a mobile combat method, grab a handful and run away, but that is not an army, but a bandit. Besides, you can't move around on the grassland, there are not so many places to rob. Although the grassland is very wide, the area suitable for grazing is limited. It would be okay if it were a large plain like Henan and Hebei, but if you really enter the Hebei Plain, facing the situation where every village has a militia and every county has a local armed force, almost everyone is a soldier, the bandits will only die faster.

After all, times have changed. The era of nomadic peoples has long ended.

Oerlehek kept saying, "Just send out troops, just send out troops! Once the imperial court...government troops arrive, there will be peace on the grassland!"

The cavalry had already arrived at Guihua City. War horses are very delicate creatures. Even though Mongolian horses are very durable, they need to be fed several kilograms of concentrated feed every day, otherwise they will easily lose weight. During long marches, the infantry often have to stop and wait for the cavalry every half a month. In terms of thick skin and long endurance, humans are much better than cattle and horses. In the early records of the previous dynasty, the number of people and livestock was often calculated together, such as "how many men and women were captured from livestock" and so on.

Heavy equipment such as cannons and machine guns were transported to Guihua by rail. With the railroad, the army's mobility was greatly improved. In the past, infantry could carry equipment and advance 30 miles a day, which was not impossible, but if they did so, the heavy equipment would not be able to keep up with the speed of the infantry. Now, they can travel day and night on the train, and can travel 300 to 400 kilometers a day. If the maximum transportation is used, it can reach about 600 kilometers.

Lin Yongchang was used to seeing high-speed trains and airplanes, so he was fine with this speed. However, for the Chinese of that era, transporting tens of thousands of troops to a distance of three or four hundred kilometers in one day and night was simply unimaginable. No wonder when Marshal Lin was fighting the Eight-Nation Alliance, the first order he gave was to tear up the railway.

If the railway line is intact, it will only take ten hours to get from Beijing to Tianjin. When the railway of the People's Government was extended to Guihua City, the Mongols in the south of the desert became more respectful. Even if Batto threw out the great killer move of the Great Mongol Empire, not many people in the south of the desert went to join the Mongol emperor.

Railways are not only useful in military matters, but also have a significant impact on the local economy along the route. Business is about exchanging what you have and what you don’t have, shipping things here to there and products there to here. Railways have greatly reduced the cost of land transportation, improved safety, and reduced the possibility of accidents along the way.

Water transportation is also cheap, but not all places have rivers suitable for ships to pass through, and the continuity of water transportation is not good, and the maintenance of waterways is also a big problem. Generally speaking, railways and water transportation have their own advantages, but in the north, especially on the Mongolian grasslands, railways are far superior to water transportation.

The cavalry had gone, the heavy equipment had also gone, and there were also baggage supplies. As long as the two regiments of infantry were loaded and transported, they could launch the attack the day after tomorrow morning. This time, Lin Yongchang still planned to go alone, not because he was worried about the loss of military power or that others would not fight, but because the people's government did not have much capital at the moment.

It was not difficult to defeat the ragtag cavalry under Batto's command, nor was it difficult to capture Kulun. The only problem was that the Mongolian army was scattered and roamed around on the grassland, which would be very troublesome. The People's Army used guerrilla tactics in the Northeast to beat the Russians miserably, and they did not want the same trick to be used on them.

Therefore, Lin Yongchang decided to go there himself and wipe out those rebel troops in no time.

Chapter 219 Sa Zhenbing

Wuyun Qiqige and Guan Xiaotong will go to Guihua City with them. With the railway, it is much more convenient to go in and out. Lin Yongchang can also take them with him when he goes to war, of course, he will only go to Guihua City. Yang Du will also go to Guihua and will follow the army. Wu Tingfang will not go. He is already in his fifties. Although he claims to be young, he is really not young anymore.

Just when Wuyun Qiqi was pulling Fourth Princess Xiaotong to pack her clothes, Sa Zhenbing came to ask for a meeting.

Sa Zhenbing was from Fujian. In the winter of 18756, he went abroad with Liu Buchan, Fang Boqian, Yan Fu and others as the first batch of students from Fujian Shipbuilding to study driving at the Royal Naval College in Greenwich, England. During the Sino-Japanese War of 11-, Sa Zhenbing was ordered to guard Ri Island, southeast of Liugong Island. He held out for days in the ice and snow under the bombardment of the Japanese army, and finally withdrew to Liugong Island under the order of Admiral Ding Ruchang.

The Sino-Japanese War of 1894 ended with the annihilation of the Beiyang Fleet. Sa Zhenbing experienced ups and downs thereafter. When Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu were killed together, he was disheartened and returned to his hometown. But then Marshal Lin defeated the Eight-Nation Alliance and defeated the Russian army in the Liaoxi War. Sa Zhenbing could no longer stay in his hometown and ignored Zhang Zhidong's request to stay, so he ran back to the north.

Sa Zhenbing was not recruited by Marshal Lin, but came here on his own. On the one hand, the reason was that the People's Army proved that it could defeat the great powers in land battles, and on the other hand, it was because the People's Army captured six Russian ironclad ships in the Battle of Huludao.

The so-called ironclad ships were all products of the pre-dreadnought era. Lin Yongchang looked down on them and even offered to return them to Tsarist Russia during negotiations with the Russians.

. But because Russia refused to return the Northeast, it kept the six ironclad ships. Sa Zhenbing took a fancy to the six ironclad ships and wanted to rebuild the Chinese navy based on them.

During the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Beiyang Fleet performed very poorly. Although it was not lacking in courage, it made many mistakes in command. Lin Yongchang still admired Deng Shichang, but had mixed feelings about Ding Ruchang. After the defeat, Ding Ruchang committed suicide for his country. He was a real man. But Ding Ruchang was originally an army officer, but he became a naval admiral. This was not a good match for his profession!

Li Hongzhang did a lot of messed up things, and letting Ding Ruchang be the admiral of the navy was one of them. How good would it be to let a good army general fight the Japanese on the Korean land? Ding Ruchang's defense of Liugong Island was very good. But fighting on land is not the job of the navy. What's the point of fighting well on land?

Lin Yongchang comforted Sa Zhenbing, who had come to him, and arranged for him to teach at the Qingdao Naval Academy. In the eyes of Marshal Lin, the captured ironclad ships were just toys, and he did not expect to use them in naval battles, but just as training ships.

Moreover, the government of the People's Government is now focusing on land, and resources are tilted towards the army. There is no plan to rebuild the navy for the time being. When the army is replacing weapons and equipment on a large scale, the navy is not making any moves. The government has added several new inland gunboats, which have nothing to do with the navy. They belong to the local militia.

Seeing that the People's Government and Marshal Lin were indifferent to the navy, Sa Zhenbing and his colleagues were very anxious. The Japanese next door were building the "Six-Six Fleet", and China had to keep up! If we don't catch up, we will be suppressed by the Japanese at sea in the future!

In addition to teaching in Qingdao, Sa Zhenbing wrote several letters to the central government, requesting the expansion of the Naval Academy's enrollment and the purchase of the latest ironclad ships from Britain. After reading in the newspaper that the government produced more than 600,000 tons of steel a year, he also asked the government to build its own warships.

He used the Japanese as an example. The Japanese steel production was less than 100,000 tons, but they designed and built warships by themselves. China couldn't fall behind! Anyway, Sa Zhenbing was determined to fight with the Japanese. He couldn't forget about it even when he went to sleep. His biggest dream was to lead the navy into Tokyo Bay and give the Japanese a hard time.

After writing many letters without any response, Sa Zhenbing simply went to Taiyuan in person. He first went to the Navy Department and found that there was nothing there except a few odd jobs, which made him more and more worried. Then, he came to the Presidential Palace empty-handed.

As a naval officer who had been in the navy for many years, Sa Zhenbing was not ignorant of the principle of "the more gifts, the less blame". He lived a very simple life and was not unable to raise dozens or hundreds of taels of silver. The main reason was that the People's Party did not have the old custom of giving gifts.

The "Three Antis and Five Antis" campaign was over, but the people's government still repeatedly ordered officials to maintain a simple and honest style of work, and not to give or receive gifts to each other. President Lin set an example by sending people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to investigate anyone who gave him a gift.

There are very few people who can withstand the inspection of a magnifying glass. As long as you look carefully, you can always find problems. After sending many people to the Western Regions Protectorate to guard the border for the country, I dare not say that the entire officialdom has changed, but at least the atmosphere in Taiyuan has improved a lot.

Sa Zhenbing knew the rules, so he came empty-handed. Well, it can't be said that he came completely empty-handed, he didn't bring any gifts, but he did report a lot of information, many of which were Japanese naval information and the plan of the "Six-Six Fleet". He planned to have a good talk with President Lin, China can't just develop the army, the navy can't be left behind!

The guard led him into the living room. After a while, Lin Yongchang came over. As soon as he entered the door, he said unhappily, "Sa Zhenbing, why are you running around instead of teaching properly?"

Seeing that Sa Zhenbing had defended the Japanese island, Lin Yongchang was very tolerant of Sa Zhenbing. At first, he would reply to his letters. Later, he received too many letters and kept repeating the same thing. Marshal Lin had endless energy, but limited time, so he gradually stopped paying attention. Unexpectedly, Sa Zhenbing actually came from Qingdao!

Sa Zhenbing stood up, his face as usual, "School is on holiday, and the teaching plan has been completed."

"............", Lin Yongchang was a little annoyed. It's not that he doesn't care about the navy. China has such a long coastline, and it can't do without a navy. But he really has no interest in the current "pre-dreadnoughts". In a few years, the British will make "dreadnoughts", and those ironclad ships will become outdated toys.

Marshal Lin didn't even look down on the "Dreadnought". With the plug-in in hand, it was not a problem to develop advanced technology. He could just go for the "Super Dreadnought". With 17 or 18 "Super Dreadnoughts", the "Six-Six Fleet" would be no problem. But now is not the time. The various technologies purchased from the [Heavenly Sun Never Sets] system have not been fully understood, and the People's Government does not have the equipment and experience to manufacture warships.

In addition, even if they wanted to build warships, they could not do it under the noses of the Japanese. After seizing several ironclad ships from the Tsarist Russia, Japanese spies often appeared in Qingdao, Huludao and Yantai, and captured batches of them. The foreign ministries of the two countries had a lot of verbal battles over this.

Lin Yongchang's plan was to place the shipyard in the south, or in Wuchang, but it couldn't be placed on the Japanese's sunny slope. Then we had to unify China first and make the Yangtze River waterway accessible.

The exercise rights must be taken back. In a word, now is not the time to develop the navy.

Chapter 220 Catch

German Emperor Wilhelm II had been promoting the "Yellow Peril" to get his Russian cousins to focus on Asia, but why did he stop doing anything? Marshal Alfred von Wassily died in China, and so many Junker officers were killed, so why did Germany not do anything?

Because China and Germany were jointly and secretly developing the "dreadnought", dreadnought was just a name, a standard. At that time, the "dreadnought" had not yet come out, but since Marshal Lin proposed this name, the "all-heavy artillery battleship" was called a "dreadnought".

German Emperor Wilhelm II was an avid naval enthusiast. He collected many models of battleships and was very interested in the "dreadnought" concept and "steam turbine" drawings that the Chinese had presented to him. Originally, Lin Yongchang wanted to cooperate with the Americans in the research of battleships. The Wang Division's technology was still very backward, but their industrial strength was really strong. Unfortunately, the Americans were short-sighted and did not agree, so they had to cooperate with the Germans instead.

The U.S. Navy Department had made all the plans, but they were cut by Congress. So Marshal Lin had to contact the Germans. William II was a fan of naval figures. After receiving the drawings and technical parameters from China, he especially saw the more than two-meter-long "dreadnought" model. He waved his arms in the palace and shouted: "This is the battleship I want!"

So they no longer mentioned the issue of the "Yellow Peril" and immediately began to cooperate with China.

The Germans had a strong industry and were the best in the world in terms of the army, but their navy was still far behind the British. Germany's naval tradition was not strong, and it lagged behind in all aspects, from the design of warships to power, armor, naval artillery, etc., and the gap with the British was not a little bit.

Moreover, the navy is a stock of troops, and the outcome is almost decided at the moment of the war. Later in World War II, the king's division defeated the chicken in the basin, which was an exception. The difference in strength between the two sides was too great, and under normal circumstances, they should not have fought.

If there were no special circumstances, even if the Germans kept building warships, they would not be able to catch up with the British within ten or eight years, because the number of warships in the British Navy was too large. But with the "dreadnought", it was different. The German Navy's assessment of William II was: Although the weapon performance of the "dreadnought" on paper was not strong at the same time, relying on advanced design concepts, its combat effectiveness was more than 1 times stronger than the other largest armored ships at the time!

The design drawings provided by the Chinese were still too conservative. If the Germans were to design them, the "Dreadnought" would have a stronger combat capability! The new steam turbine drawings provided by the Chinese were also proven to be completely feasible. If they could be successfully manufactured, the power of the German Navy would be greatly enhanced.

Kaiser Wilhelm II was worried that the drawings given by the Chinese were too backward, but the Navy Department's assessment was that they were not backward at all. Not only were they not backward, but they were a little ahead of the times. Germany's technical strengths in chemical engineering, machinery manufacturing and shipbuilding were somewhat inferior to those of the British. Some technical indicators might not be met, and it would take a long time to convert the drawings into physical objects.

If you want to shorten the research time, you must continue to introduce Chinese technology. So China and Germany hit it off and started secret research. China sent some "technicians" to Germany, and Germany sent some people to Qingdao, and cooperated with the People's Party to establish a naval academy in Qingdao.

However, the cooperation between China and Germany was conducted in secret. Sa Zhenbing only saw what was happening on the surface and thought that the government really did not want to develop the navy. He wrote letters to the central government every day, and now they had come to his home to block his way.

Facing the extremely stubborn Sa Zhenbing, Lin Yongchang was somewhat helpless. He thought about it and decided to reveal some information to Sa Zhenbing to prevent him from worrying about it every day. "Sa Zhenbing, don't be a teacher anymore. Go work in the Navy Equipment Department. There are some things that I can't tell you now. When you go to the Navy Equipment Department, you will know. But before that, you must first become a member of the People's Party and undergo confidentiality training."

Sa Zhenbing didn't really want to join the People's Party. He didn't care about politics and didn't have much attachment to the previous dynasty. He just wanted to rebuild the best fleet in Asia. "Mr. President, do I have to join the People's Party?"

"If you don't want to, you can go back to Qingdao to teach, but don't worry about the development of the navy anymore."

Sa Zhenbing hesitated for a long time before nodding heavily, "Okay, I will write the application."

Alas, this guy makes it seem like joining the People's Party is a chore. I don't know what President Lin means as an introducer. Many people want Lin Yongchang as an introducer but can't get one. Sa Zhenbing has no political sensitivity at all. But this is not surprising. Many professionals have no idea about politics. Some people even think that there is no difference between the president and the emperor.

After seeing off the worried Sa Zhenbing, Lin Yongchang dealt with a lot of things before going to the guest room to find Wuyun Qiqige and the others. Although they were engaged, he and the girl did not sleep together. Wuyun Qiqige was only twelve years old, too young. Xiaotong had grown up and was a very pleasing long-legged beauty. It was Yixin and Zaizhen who washed her and sent her to him, but Lin Yongchang did not eat her.

Eating it might be fun, but it would bring some trouble. Even if the capital was moved to Taiyuan, Beiping was still full of

The old men attacked the city at night: ⑥九四九, ③六壹三五遗少, making the place a mess. Sheng Yun and Tie Liang and their people set up a "Zongshe Party" and were obsessed with restoration. The government is now focusing on development, but it will never turn a blind eye to the small actions of the remnants of the previous dynasty. Sooner or later, Beiping will have to be cleaned up.

“This dress is beautiful!”

Wuyun Qiqige's voice rang out in the room. She held a piece of clothing and gestured at Xiaotong, saying, "Try this one on."

Lin Yongchang didn't have much money, but Wuyun Qiqige was very rich. She could buy whatever she liked. Except that she couldn't treat the navy as a big toy like William II, she could get anything she wanted, even cannons. Wuyun Qiqige once asked Lin Yongchang why he was so good to her. Lin Yongchang laughed and said: This is fate!

Fate is destined by God, isn’t that enough?

The little girl was relieved and continued to play with the things she liked. Just like the clothes she was putting on Xiaotong, they were made of the best fabrics and made by the best craftsmen on the grassland. Xiaotong took off her coat, revealing her snow-white skin and two white lumps on her chest.

Wuyun Qiqige looked down at her own, then at Guan Xiaotong's. Sigege's was not very big, but it was bigger than hers! She stretched out her palm and grabbed one of the balls. It was soft and smooth in her hand, which was very enjoyable. Lin Yongchang just came in and saw this scene, so he coughed and walked out, "It's time for dinner, Qiqi, come over after you change your clothes."

"Ah!" Xiaotong screamed from inside the room. Sigege quickly pushed Wuyun Qiqige's hand away. Her face turned completely pink. "Qiqi, how could you do this?"

Wuyun Qiqige's eyes widened. "How is it?"

She had milked at home, so what was wrong with grabbing and squeezing? Wasn't that normal?

Chapter 221: The Devil Po Xun

Guihua City is a famous city outside the Great Wall with a history of more than 400 years. It is located on the plain formed by the alluvial deposits of the Yellow River and the Dahei River. It is backed by the majestic and undulating Daqing Mountain of the Yinshan Mountains in the north, which leads to the fertile grasslands in the north; it faces the rolling Yellow River in the south, and faces the Ordos Plateau across the river; it is connected to the rolling Manhan Mountains in the east; and it is connected to the Hetao in the west, which is the gateway to Gansu and Ningxia in the west.

The land here is fertile, the terrain is flat, and irrigation is convenient. It is geographically called Qiantao Plain and Tumochuan Plain, and historically known as Chi Lechuan Fengzhou Beach. The people here mainly believe in Lamaism. When Marshal Lin, the incarnation of Bodhisattva, got off the train, many Mongolians immediately knelt on the ground.

The 13th Dalai Lama, Thubten Gyatso, was the first person to invest in Lin Yongchang, and he was rewarded later. The organization of the serf soldiers on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau was still not strong, but their weapons and equipment were much better. After hundreds of years of development, they jumped from the matchlock gun to the era of Mosin-Nagant and rapid-fire cannons.

Lin Yongchang received a lot of gold from Thubten Gyatso, the 13th Dalai Lama, and spared no effort in supporting Qinghai-Tibet. He sent guns and cannons several times and also wrote a book called "Mountain Guerrilla Warfare" to guide the Qinghai-Tibetan army on how to fight. The Dalai Lama reciprocated by sending a lot of gold to Marshal Lin and declared in Qinghai-Tibet and the grasslands that Marshal Lin was the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva.

Many Mongolians really believed it. They had their own opinions. If it wasn't the Bodhisattva's coming, how could he accomplish so many great things in just a few years? Since Marshal Lin came, the situation on the grassland has changed every year. When the railway was built to Guihua City, the whole southern desert was different from before.

In addition, the most important point is that Marshal Lin is very good at fighting. He defeated powerful enemies repeatedly, and he was willing to use Mongolians and gave them timely and generous rewards. Under the dual influence of religion and reality, Marshal Lin now has a very high reputation on the grassland. Some Mongolians in the south of the desert were bewitched by the Mongol Empire and ran to Emperor Bato, but more Mongolians in the north of the desert came to work for Marshal Lin.

Barto controlled the city of Kulun, and naturally he had the support of monks and lamas, but he did not have the military achievements of Lin Yongchang, and he was not generous enough in his actions, so naturally he was not as popular as Marshal Lin.

The Mongolians all knelt on the ground, and the lamas held up "hada", which was a long silk scarf, and put it around the necks of Lin Yongchang and Wuyun Qiqige. Princess Xiaotong watched all this from the side, and she didn't know what she was thinking about. Her face suddenly turned red again, and then she lowered her head.

Lin Yongchang laughed loudly, shook the lama's hand, and said loudly: "Everyone, stand up! I feel everyone's enthusiasm. Don't be so grand in the future!"

His voice was so loud that it could be heard for miles around, and it almost knocked out several lamas in front of him. Wuyun Qiqige and the people who often followed Marshal Lin had experience, so they stood behind him with their mouths slightly open, so as to reduce some of the damage caused by the sound waves. Wuyun Qiqige even covered his ears, and when he saw the big lama, the small lama, and many other people being shaken to the ground, he couldn't help but smile.

The lamas actually knew the magical power of Marshal Lin, but they could not cover their ears like the little girl, as that would be extremely disrespectful, so they could only endure the verbal abuse. After the verbal attack was finally over, the lamas, both big and small, looked at each other in shock.

Communicating with local lamas, princes, herdsmen, etc. and showing goodwill is a political matter, but the most important thing about this visit to Guihua City is not politics, but military.

The country has been in turmoil for a long time. Autumn is coming soon, and it is time to solve the problem in Kulun. If it is delayed any longer, when the people in Mobei get used to the existence of the pseudo-Mongolia, things will become more troublesome.

Well, that's just one of the reasons.

For Lin Yongchang now, sending troops to fight is the easiest thing. However, fighting on the grassland is different from fighting in the mainland. There are not so many villages and towns that can be used as defensive strongholds, and there are not so many places for supplies. Here, there are only two ways to fight. If you have an advantage, you can frame and attack; if you are not strong enough, don't fight head-on. Anyway, the grassland is so big, just escape all the way.

If you run to the north where there is less water and grass, no one will chase you too far unless there is a deep hatred. However, the consequences of doing so are more serious, and the environment becomes more severe the further north you go. Fleeing to the north can avoid the enemy's pursuit, but it will definitely kill a lot of livestock, and the tribesmen will also run away, or die due to cold and hunger.

Most of the time, the tribes on the grassland surrendered when they couldn't win. This is why when a strong man rises on the grassland, he can often sweep across thousands of miles in a very short time. Here, the strong will always be strong, and the weak will mostly continue to decline.

When fighting on the grassland, finding the enemy is the most important thing, followed by fighting. Because of the sparse population, it is not convenient to supply on the grassland, and it is easy to get lost. In history, when Li Guang led his troops to attack the Xiongnu, he got lost several times. But the current situation is different from the era of Emperor Wu of Han. On the one hand, with the development of military technology, the power of guns and cannons has made the combat effectiveness of infantry better than cavalry; on the other hand, the Mongols in Mobei can no longer run away with cattle, sheep and other property as before.

Kulun City was right there, and even if Barto wanted to lure the enemy deeper into the city, he couldn't give up Kulun City.

In addition to its political significance, Kulun City is also the most important tax collection place for the pseudo-Mongolia, and the religious center of the northern desert. The Jebtsundamba Khutuktu of the Gelug sect is stationed in Kulun. If Kulun is lost, not only will it have a huge political impact, but it will also lose its economic source and religious blessing.

Most Mongolians are very realistic. They only respect the strong. If the Mongolian emperor Batto lost the capital Kulun, the army under Batto's command would turn against him and join Marshal Lin.

Therefore, the tactics formulated by Lin Yongchang were very simple. Ten thousand troops would march directly to Kulun City. If the pseudo-Mongolian emperor Batuo ran away, then he would occupy Kulun City and then issue orders to all directions. If Batuo did not run away, he would first defeat the pseudo-Mongolian army and then occupy Kulun.

It’s that simple, nothing fancy, just frame it, A it, I can do it!

The lamas and generals who participated in the military meeting had no objection. This was how it was when fighting on the grasslands, especially when nomads were fighting for supremacy. There was not much room for strategy. They just fought face to face. The strong won and the weak lost. That was all. If a battle could not decide the outcome, they would fight again until the outcome was determined.

The next day after the tactics were formulated, the Northern Expedition Army was dispatched. The 10,000-man army refers to the combat personnel. In order to supply the 10,000 infantry and cavalry, there were more than 20,000 logistics personnel, some of whom were baggage troops from the inland areas, and most of them were local Mongolians.

Those Mongolian herdsmen drove their cattle and sheep, followed the army, eating lush wild grass along the way, and moved from south to north.

Tens of thousands of people stretched out over a dozen miles on the vast grassland, and the weeds were greatly shortened wherever they passed. Many Mongolians were deeply moved, as they had never seen such a magnificent team. The last time so many Mongolians gathered together was during the reign of Galdan in Junggar.

As for those people from Mobei, they were simply ignored by them. Those people from the north were just bandits, and they had never done anything good except robbing!

Those people in [Mongol Iron Cavalry] had fought against foreigners in North China and Northeast China, and they sneered at the intervention of other Mongolians. They thought it was just a small scene, and fighting against the Russians in western Liaoning was a big scene. There were only tens of thousands of people?

"We defeated two hundred thousand Russians! Two hundred thousand!"

"And we annihilated 100,000 of them!"

"What kind of shitty emperor is Barto? If there really is a Mongolian emperor, it's Marshal Lin!"

The members of the [Mongol Iron Cavalry] puffed out their chests and boasted loudly about their bravery on the battlefield. The Mongols who had never been to North China and Northeast China were fascinated by what they heard, as if the deeds in myths and legends had appeared in reality. And there were indeed many things that seemed like myths. Those who went to the Central Plains to fight became stronger and stronger, and they rarely got sick. Even if they were injured, they would recover quickly.

The most outrageous thing is that even the horses have grown bigger. These miracles appeared vividly in front of us. Not only did many Mongolians believe that Lin Dashuai was the incarnation of Bodhisattva, but even many lamas who made a living by pretending to be gods also believed it. Well, there are also some lamas who support Bato and believe that Lin Dashuai is not a Bodhisattva, but a Buddha enemy like Poxun Tianmo.

Regardless of whether he was a Bodhisattva or a demon, Marshal Lin was not an ordinary person. For ordinary Mongolians, whether he was a Bodhisattva or a demon, they could not afford to offend him. Even if he was a demon, he had to be worshipped. Many people supported Emperor Bato while secretly setting up a tablet for Marshal Lin and praying to him secretly. It was said that it was very effective.

The Mongols are so honest that they will kowtow to anyone who is strong.

bye.

Chapter 222 Expand

Mongolians are honest, and Russians are not bad either. There is a saying that goes, if you split every Russian in half, you will find a Mongolian inside. Rokossovsky firmly denied that he was Russian, but claimed to be Polish, and Poles are definitely not Russians.

Although he firmly refuses to admit that he is Russian, many people still think that he is a Russian.
