Chapter 18 Mountain Group

 He ​​said seriously: "You are all the confidants of Ben Khan. What I just said is just a preliminary idea. Things are ever-changing and may not be realized. Remember, don't spread the word, just keep it in your heart."

The conference was over, Bayar and his Foreign Ministry had a lot of things to do, and Qitad was still very relieved to him and was able to put forward those ideas at the meeting. Although it was a bit whimsical, it was ultimately something that others could not put forward.

With this, he is far better than others.

As for Kazimiri, when he got Qitad promised to secretly support the Poles, he was not in a hurry. Instead, he decided to make a good move in the Khanate. Qitad did not stop him, but instead sent his personal guards to accompany him to the transfer.

Wobasi lived with Qitade. As soon as the conference ended, Qitade immediately asked: "You are doing a good job. The mountain group's personnel have just been selected. Think about it, should you continue to go to the group or do something else?"

Wobasi said: "What else is there?"

"Second brother, you also know that our country's army has many talents, but there are few naval generals. At present, only Dai Qing from Sarekamesh's tribe and Rahman, the former horse thief of Aral Island, can still be used."

"You also see that if you want to dominate here, you must control the Caspian Sea, the Black Sea channel, especially the Black Sea. It can directly reach the Atlantic Ocean, which is very important"

"If the Russians want to defeat the Ottomans, they must control the Black Sea. In recent years, they have built fleets in Zaporoze, Azov, and Rostov, and have also activated British officers. They are also very powerful. Although we have used new ships, they cannot guarantee that they will be able to defeat them."

Wobaxi thought for a while and said, "Forget it, when I was taking a boat to pass through the Black Sea, my body couldn't adapt at all. I spent the first few days in vomiting. I think it was a grassland man after all, so I'd better do it in the army."

Qitad nodded, "Also, if you want to deal with the Russians, it is not possible to rely on those small cannons alone. Our country is developing new cannons, and we also need the right people to command them. If you want, you can go there."

Qitade shook his head, "I'm still used to riding horses and galloping around. There are also war horses in the mountain camp. I decided to go there."

"But I have a problem"

"Tell me"

"The mountain regiment cannot be led by me, Bai Ding, who is the mountain warrior, I can only be the deputy"

Qitad's eyes revealed relief.

"You are right. Since it is a mountain regiment, the commander must have rich mountain experience. Among the many military officers in our country, only Akton, a Sorens from the Eight Banners and a Baoyi slave who were born in the Year"

"They all came out of Ningguta. Ningguta is located in the mountains, not to mention that Akdun was once Batulu under the command of the general of Jilin"

"For them, if you want to get the title of Batulu, you need to go up the mountain to hunt beasts, including tigers, black bears, and wild boars. Although you are carrying weapons, bows and arrows, it is not easy to do this."

"He once worked as Niu Luezhen, and later became the leader of the elite cavalry camp of the Qing army. It would be impossible to do without some real materials"

"I have forgotten myself in my youth, although I am both civil and military, but I have been used to serving my master for a long time. I have fought in the mountains with a complex terrain and a harsh climate, so I may encounter ambush from the enemy at any time"

"The generals of this team must be bold and keen and able to move forward"

"So, although Akton is now the commander of the first brigade, he was still transferred out and asked him to command the mountain regiment. This is a large group with 1,500 people"

"However, according to the information obtained by Norb, there are tens of thousands of Caucasians behind Grozny, and it is not easy to completely wipe out it."

"It's January now, and the Shandong section of the Caucasus is still covered with heavy snow. It's a good time for training. Let's talk about training for half a year first."

Wobasi was stunned for a moment, "Snow covered, training?"

"You will know when you go"

Wobassi left Magar City the next day and arrived at the mountain team's training base - Alan City (Vladik Okz).

To this day, the city of Alan, which was originally dominated by the Alan, mixed with Georgians, and Armenians, has completely joined the Truchen Khanate.

Qitad also stationed a regular brigade here, and the brigade commander is Akton!

When Akton learned that Wobasi was coming, he hurried out to greet him.

After seeing the figure of Wobasi from afar, Akton thought to himself: "The Khan didn't know what happened. He wanted his brother to train in the army and put it in an ordinary brigade. He could not only accumulate qualifications, but also have wars to fight. What should he do if he had to bring him to the mountain regiment?"

"If a person like him is in the Qing Dynasty, he will definitely be a prince with an iron hat"

"Forget it, since he is the deputy, let him follow him"

Although he thought so in his heart, when Wobaxi approached, he quickly dismounted and bent down and bowed and said, "Huntaiji, I'm not polite to this house"

Wobaxi quickly got off his horse and ran to him in front of him in a few steps to help him up, "General, don't want this, you are my boss, what you do in the future, you will just follow your instructions"

Akton wanted to make some polite words, and remembered the scene when he participated in the meeting in Qitad in the past two years, "Is the Truchen Khanate really a country that emphasizes everyone's equality?"

"If you are too humble and waste your training and combat, you will be finished"

Then he said, "Huntaiji, it's not that he is a big deal. I have to be serious about it, but then again, everything is up to you and I to discuss it."

Just as he was about to invite him back to his mansion and then discuss it, Wobaxi asked: "Where is the military camp?"

Akden said: "In the mountains north of Alan City, on the left bank of the upper reaches of the Telec River, there is a place called Barta, which is close to the snow-capped mountains. According to the Khan's meaning, the military camp is located there"

"It's too late now, so why not take a rest in the city for a night. What's going to go tomorrow?"

Wobaxi smiled and said, "How far is it? Let's go there directly. I heard that there are still a few generals. It's better to determine the training plan as soon as possible. I can't stay there for a moment."

Akton could not do so, so he had to rely on him, and a group of more than ten riders rode their horses towards Barta.

When it was completely dark, they finally arrived at Barta.

On a high ground on the left bank, a camp is brightly lit.

Due to the high terrain, the Terek River on one side is still frozen, and the Caucasus Snow Mountain is not far away.

At the entrance of the camp, Wobaxi met two other generals from the mountain regiment.

One of them is naturally selfless. Although he is not as good as Akton, after all, he has been in the bitter and cold place of Ningguta, and it is also a big deal to stand out from a coat slave.

He didn't expect another person.

It turned out to be Yan Dunhuang, who graduated for the first time!

After seeing the New Year, Wobaxi grabbed Yan Dunhuang, "You kid is here too? Aren't you a staff officer in the personal guard brigade? Why did you come here too?"

Yan Dunhuang smiled and said, "I took the initiative to ask for it. I heard from the Khanate that the various brigades of the Khanate have already taken shape, that is, the newly formed mountain group is a new creation. Although the conditions are harsh, it is extremely training for people, so I took the initiative to apply."

Wobaxi naturally complained, "You kid can't be the battalion commander as soon as you start"

After stepping into the camp, I saw more than 100 tents listed among them. Nian Wangyi introduced: "Ten people live in one tent, and the middle is a separate tent for officers above the battalion commander or above"

Sure enough, after passing through the tent group, I saw a large tent in the middle, surrounded by three smaller tents.

"Everyone, Huntaiji is very eager. I might as well eat and chat"

There is naturally a tin stove popular in the Khanate in the middle of the tent, and there is also a faint smell of coal burning inside. Wobaxi knew that coal balls were also used here.

Barbecue, milk tea, and several people started chatting while eating.

"Everyone," Akton said, "There are 1,500 people and 1,500 mountain horses. The soldiers chosen are all not tall, but they can endure hardships and be agile and keen, muskets, short guns, and cannons are all available."

"According to the previous Khan and Mr. Shen discussed with me, the preliminary training plan has also come out, but I want to hear your opinions."

“So there hasn’t been training yet?”

Nian Wanger smiled and said, "It was all drawn from various brigades. The previous training and work and schedule are still underway, but since it is a mountain group, it is still unclear what training to add"

Wobassi nodded, but thought to himself, "This year's selflessness is obviously a cover-up for Akton. Akton sings a white face, and he is a good partner. Both of them were originally brigade commanders, but now they can be under Akton without hesitation, and they are not simple characters."

"Only I and Yan Dunhuang are Bai Dings, so please humbly ask them for advice"

"The Khan used to lead regular hikes to use sledding to ski in winter, and they were all on the flat ground. If you want to shuttle through the mountains in winter, skiing is essential, so it will be included in the training program."

Akton smiled and said, "You and I have thought of each other, okay, skiing"

Wobaxi said again: "It's not just skiing, since it's a mountain, the large army will definitely not be able to perform. It is very likely that suddenly encounters an enemy during the skiing process. How to stop immediately and raise a gun and shoot also requires training"

"It's amazing"

Nian burst into laughter.

"The Khan had summoned me and the brigade commander before, and he said this and named it why it was 'bioblasts'. I didn't expect that Huntaiji was born into a noble family and thought of going with the Khan."

Master Yan Xiang asked: "Skiing is naturally wonderful, but what should I do if those short-barrel cannons are? The lightest one is fifty kilograms. It is not easy to ski on his back. If you accidentally fall into a cliff, it will be bad."

Akden nodded, "In the past, when we were in Ningguta, if we had to carry a lot of things, we would use dogs to pull sledges. People here are also useful, but not many"

"And once you use a lot of dogs, you cannot guarantee that they will not yell out honestly"

"What should I do?"

Nian Wanger said, "Otherwise, how could the Khan sees thousands of miles? He had long thought of this section. This time, the arsenal specially built a 30-pound cannon for us, or a mother-child cannon."

"Mother and Child Cannon?"

"It's the Franca machine cannon..."

Nian Wanger suddenly realized that the Fran machine cannon was just the Qing Dynasty, and quickly said: "It is only 30 kilograms, and the barrel is very short. It can fire solid bullets and can also fire shotguns, but the range is not large, only about a hundred meters."

"There is also a wide-mouth cannon with the same thirty kilogram, with a caliber larger than a two hundred kilogram cannon, but shorter. Dashan even gave it a name"

"What's the name?"

"No conscience"
