Ha, it's not Womar's crow's mouth. If these Germans go to the east to open up wasteland, none of them will survive. But compared to the second option, isn't the first option a little too good?
Go to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, damn it, Womar hasn’t been to the capital of the Ming Dynasty yet. I just heard that the capital is full of flowers and the scenery is pleasant. Even if you can’t learn Chinese, you will still be beheaded, but you can always see the capital.
So rich. So when Womar translated, he didn't mention the reclamation of wasteland in the east at all. Enlan was not a fool. Would he choose to open up wasteland? It was all in vain.
Womar whispered in Enlan's ear. After Enlan understood, his eyes widened in disbelief. For a moment, he didn't know what the Eastern noble's agenda was, but looking at Tie Mo's sinister smile, Enlan
I could only bite the bullet and agree, "I hope you can keep your word."
Tie Mo didn't ask too many questions, and soon Enlan was sent out of the castle. Hai Lanzhu, with bright eyes, sat next to Tie Mo and whispered, "What are you planning? Why do I look like this?"
It’s not punishment, but more like enjoyment?”
"Hey, Pearl, don't you understand this? Have you ever heard of a saying? If you want to destroy a country, you must first destroy its language. If you have been speaking fluent Chinese since you were a child, will you have any influence on the Ming Dynasty?
Does civilization have a sense of intimacy? This governor wants these Germans to go to the capital to enjoy themselves, to weaken their aspirations, and to implant Chinese language into them. When they return to the Holy Empire, will they fight against us desperately? Not only these people
You have to learn Chinese. After capturing Tomsk, the governor will build a trading city there. If you want to trade in the city, you must speak Chinese. Aren’t these barbarians very wild? Let’s polish off their wildness little by little.”
Tie Mo is full of confidence and is not worried about any adverse consequences. This trick has been tested in practice. The little devils in later generations have done many evil things, but they are still very effective in many things. Look at how many pro-Japanese elements there are in Wanwan Island in later generations.
You know, the result of promoting Japanese is to create a bunch of pro-Japanese elements, so why not learn from the little devils.
Nowadays, the situation in the Western Continent is very complicated. It is a good opportunity to take action. Sometimes aggression does not necessarily require bright swords and guns. Isn’t it just a hooligan? Who wouldn’t? Seeing Tie Mo showing that evil smile, Hai Lanzhu sighed.
The old Slavs really shouldn't cause trouble. I'm afraid the Slavs and Germans will be in bad luck in the future.
Since the expedition plan has been finalized, preparations are in full swing. The heavy snow has begun to stop, and the 100,000 Siberian Expeditionary Force advances towards the Yenisei River in batches. In order to avoid accidents, the expeditionary force marches in two directions, north and south, all the way to Tamyr.
Plateau, all the way to the city of Nannuko via the south of the Tunguska River. The north and south routes advance together, although the speed will be slower, but more steady. The Siberian Expeditionary Force advances into the Yenisei River. Such a large military movement cannot be hidden from everyone.
Eyes and ears.
Royce has been having a hard time recently. Although he retreated to Kuleika, he has also been experiencing a lot of troubles. First of all, there are still not enough things to keep out the cold. Secondly, there are a lot of bandits near Kuleika.
The baggage personnel transporting grain and grass have been robbed more than a dozen times. The sun shines on the earth, bringing the rare warmth of Siberia. Unfortunately, Royce is not in the mood to bask in the sun. He is hiding in a private house and throwing a tantrum. "These Slavs
Bearded men, did they all grow up eating shit? We tried our best to intercept the Orientals, but they hid behind and robbed supplies. Bo Teng'en... Bo Teng'en... the people who robbed the baggage team before checked
Have you come out yet?"
Bo Teng'en's face turned red. He didn't know whether it was because of the cold or because he was angry. He huffed and said, "No, Mr. Royce, I don't think Kuleika can stay any longer. If this continues, we haven't done anything yet."
Now, let's let the Slavic bearded man torment him to death first. That Volkan is also extremely incompetent. Before he can bring the Moscow gang to heel, he actually launched an expedition and failed to clear out the rear area, which is infested with bandits. It's simply ridiculous."
Royce rolled his eyes. He wanted to point his finger at Volkan and scold him. He had never encountered this kind of thing before. In fact, Royce really blamed Volkan wrongly. Now the Romanov family has just come to power.
, the Boye nobles have just ousted the Ivan family from power. In order to grab the fruits, everyone is fighting each other. They all have their own interests. Who will really suppress the bandits? What's more, natural and man-made disasters have continued in recent years, and the environment in the northern part of the Ob River is harsh.
The locals basically have no other way to survive except hunting. How can they survive without robbing?
In the past, when tens of thousands of troops marched eastward, these locals certainly did not dare to take the lead, but it is different now. Royce's cavalry are all Germans and are not familiar with the terrain in this area. In addition, the troops cannot cover the Kuleika Highlands.
, gave the locals a chance. Royce wanted to kill the bandits composed of these locals, but time waited for no one. The Easterners actually launched an expedition in the winter, and now they have reached the Yenisei River.
"Don't worry about these Slavic bandits for now. I just got the information that the leading troops of the Easterners have arrived at the Yenisei River. It is estimated that a crossing operation will be launched within two days. What should we do?" Royce felt that this battle was really useless.
, it is obvious that he is the attacking party, but now he is letting the Easterners press him step by step.
Botenen scratched his head and looked carefully. He was as anxious as Royce. If the Easterners were allowed to cross the river without stopping them, the battle behind them would be even more difficult. "We might as well go south and rely on the strength of the cavalry to defeat the enemy."
The Easterners in the south gave them a hard beating. Now the Easterners have concentrated their cavalry to the north, and the infantry is the main force in the south. We can come and go freely without much resistance. As long as we take a bite, we can quickly retreat to the Irtysh River Basin.
, the Easterners cannot catch up with us. In addition, Kuleika cannot be defended. Once the Eastern cavalry entangles us, it is estimated that it will be difficult for us to evacuate safely. Moreover, there is another advantage to giving up Kuleika.
, the Easterners will extend the front line, and there will be a big problem with the baggage. Don’t those old Slavic people like to rob, let them rob the Easterners, sometimes rotten dogs will also play a role. Those old Slavic people, just let them
Orientals, go and have a headache."
After thinking about it, there was no better way, and now I could only adopt Bo Tengen's suggestion. Soon, Su Ges led a team of soldiers and horses back to the Kuleika station in dejection. As soon as he entered the house, Su Ges
Si threw the riding whip to the ground, sat on the ground and gasped, "These bandits are so cunning, they finally caught up with them, and they even blocked the intersection with stones."
Royce was not surprised to see Sugus complaining. The Germanic warriors had suffered many losses. One day later, the Germanic cavalry stationed in Kuleika slowly left, and the Northern Shanxi Army also
The river-crossing operation began. Shang Kexi had led the troops for many years, and was even more powerful when crossing the river. As the vanguard, he was particularly careful when crossing the river. Shang Kexi stared at the other side, but he didn't see a single enemy, so his face was full of worry.
Color, "General Liu, are there any traps for these barbarians to let us cross the river like this?"
Liu Guoneng didn't know anything at all. He opened his mouth half-opened and said with wide eyes, "I guess... I guess he was frightened by us before. But General Shang doesn't have to worry. As long as we are fully prepared,
I’m not afraid of any traps they may have.”
Although he said this, he may not think so in his heart. Liu Guoneng was still very worried. After all, the vanguard did not have cavalry, and the cavalry was useless in this kind of cross-river battle. If his troops had just crossed the river bank and the opponent's cavalry rushed towards them,
If your own cavalry cannot help, the result will definitely not be good. At least if you are the leading general, you will definitely rush forward at this time.
It's a pity that Liu Guo never dreamed that Royce would abandon Kuleika so decisively, and the entire army gathered and fled south.
Before crossing the river, Shang Kexi sent some scouts to find out the news, but now no one has returned. General Liu was too impatient. Now that he has arrived at the Yenisei River, crossing the river will be a matter of time. Although Shang Kexi is not worried about the emergency,
Duhe had some opinions, but he also understood that he could not disobey Shang Kexi's order. Although Shang Kexi made great contributions in the east and west after joining the Northern Shan Army, there was still a big gap between Shang Kexi and other direct line veterans.
There was a sound of horse hooves, and several cavalrymen from the Northern Shanxi Army passed through the vast birch forest. Facing the vast Siberian primitive jungle, they were like a group of crawling ants, very small. Siberia is really too big, with mountains and jungles
It occupies three-fifths of the land west of the Yenisei River. This is an undeveloped place, with groups of birch trees, spruce trees, and spruce trees towering into the clouds, and birds and animals appear in the forest. In this deep mountain forest,
You may face danger at any time.
Pang Jiu was ordered to inquire about intelligence. His mission was to find out the details between Kuleyka and the Ob River. He didn't think much of it at first, but after crossing the Yenisei River, he realized how heavy this task was.
There is a world of difference between the east and west sides of the Yenisei River. The east side is crisscrossed by plateaus and rivers, while the west side of the Yenisei River is mostly jungle. The jungle here is different from the forests commonly seen in the Ming Dynasty. The dense trees cover the sky and the sun, even if
Winter is coming, and the heavy snow cover still cannot let the jungle wither. Many spruce, red pine and other trees still withstand the cold winter and bloom with strong vitality. The jungle is vast and endless. If you have not received special jungle training, there are compasses and other things.
Help, it is easy for strangers to get lost when entering the jungle.
The humidity in the jungle was very high, and fog shrouded many places. Coupled with the cold weather in Siberia, it didn't take long for there to be a lot of ice debris outside the animal skins. Pang Jiu and others fumbled for a long time before they reached the area near Kuleika, where
What he saw was a deserted camp. The Germans had obviously left long ago. At this time, Pang Jiu rushed back to the Yenisei River, just to tell General Gao where the Germans were. After passing through the pine forest by the river, he saw many things.
The young man had already crossed the river. Pang Jiu quickly dismounted and walked along the ice to the other side. "General Gao, all the barbarians have fled. There is not even a single hair in the Kuleika camp. Judging from the traces left by the barbarians,
They went south."
"Hey, these barbarians are not stupid. It seems they want to cause trouble for us." Shang Ke is happy and is not worried. Although the army on the South Road lacks cavalry, they are not vegetarians there, not to mention Zhou Dingshan. As long as they fight steadily,
The Germans could not get any benefits, "Don't worry about them, let's just cross the river. Inform the supervisor that Kuleika is no longer in danger, and you can cross the river with confidence."
Tie Mo led the main force to stay near Beisei River City, waiting for the gratifying news. Hearing that the Germans near Kuleika had disappeared, there was nothing to worry about. The next day, nearly 40,000 people arrived on the North Road.
The army passed through the Yenisey River one after another through the Beisey River City. The Yenisey River is extremely wide, like a ravine, dividing the Siberian highlands into two halves, the east and west. After walking for a short time, you can observe the vast forest sea and the continuous terrain ahead.
Ups and downs, seeing everything in front of you, you can't help but think of the old forests in Liaodong.
At this time, it had just passed, and the sun was not very strong, the forest was still filled with mist, and the cold wind was blowing on the face, bringing a lot of confusion to the expeditionary force. To be precise, there were no so-called roads in the forest, and the ground was still full of trees.
Pieces of winter moss are covered with thick leaves, which are very soft when stepped on.
Pi Qing is a soldier who has been in the army for less than two years. He doesn't know what his future will be like. When he sets foot in Siberia, he realizes how vast the world is. He has never seen such a dense forest before.
The pine trees towered into the clouds. As soon as they entered the jungle, they blocked the sky and the sun. In many places, the sun could not be seen. The humidity was heavy and the cold wind was biting. Walking in the forest, the surroundings were gloomy. If he hadn't been following a large group of people, he wouldn't have been able to see the sun.
I don’t know if I dare to walk into this kind of jungle alone. The squirrels are crossing the treetops, and their chirping sounds are very harsh. Maybe the squirrels haven’t seen such a huge crowd for a long time. They don’t seem to be afraid. More
Out of curiosity, a plump squirrel kept jumping on the treetops with the crowd. The spruce and other coniferous trees here have grown for hundreds of years. The trunks have long been connected together, so the squirrels don't have to worry about falling down.
Squirrels were playing and snowflakes kept falling from the treetops. At this time, no one in the Northern Shanxi Army had any intention of hunting. For them, these squirrels added a lot of vitality to the jungle and made the soldiers nervous.
The nerves are relaxed.
Elizabeth followed Tie Mo closely. The forest was huge, but there was no so-called road, so the tens of thousands of troops dispersed far apart. The cavalry also dismounted and led the horses forward slowly. The soft leaves covered the ground.
They don’t know what the road ahead is like. Once the war horse accidentally steps into a pit, it can easily break its leg. Every cavalryman is a horse lover. They would rather get hurt themselves than let their beloved war horse be hurt, so
, in order to avoid fearless casualties, the cavalry soldiers chose to dismount and walk.
