"What do you know? This is called foolproof. We also want the people in Omsk to see it. We will eat as many people as they come out. Do you understand?" Wang Zuogao rolled his eyes, and then sipped the tea again,
Shang Kexi was filled with anger, tossed his sleeves and left the handsome tent angrily. Damn it, did he take the wrong medicine? Is it worth it for tens of thousands of cavalry to kill a group of flies?
After Shang Kexi left, Wang Zuogao showed a proud smile on his face. Unfortunately, Shang Kexi could not see this smile. Whenever Wang Zuogao smiled like this, someone would definitely be in trouble. Putting down the tea cup, Mr. Wang worked hard
He wrote quickly and soon a military report was sent elsewhere.
Near the Great Uwat River, Tie Mo touched his chin, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind. How should he cross the river?
Tie Mo also has a headache for the Great Uwat River. The water level is very deep. In June, the current is very fast. It is too unrealistic to swim across it. Especially for the infantry, they cannot wait for their shields.
Throw away the supplies. However, the shields used in the army are high, thick and extremely heavy. Carrying the shields across the river will drown as many as possible.
Hai Lanzhu stood close to Tie Mo, with sadness radiating from his brows. In fact, the best way is to seize those bridges, but the bridge deck is narrow and the Russians are heavily guarded. Attacking the bridges will be too costly.
It was obviously not cost-effective. Bamboo raft? Fishing boat? After thinking for a long time, Hai Lanzhu frowned and said slowly, "Husband, why not build a temporary pontoon bridge."
"Building a pontoon bridge is certainly good, but wood is a problem. If you want to get wood, you have to cut down trees in the forest, which makes a lot of noise." Tie Mo looked at the distance with worry. In fact, he had also thought about this idea. Building a pontoon bridge was a problem.
The most effective method. But it takes a lot of time. If the Russians react quickly enough, they can defend themselves in advance.
Hai Lanzhu frowned and relaxed his hands, "If it's fast enough, it's still possible. If you cut a lot of wood in the forest, you won't be able to hide it from the Russians. But we don't need to hide it from them. We just need to prepare the wood first.
If we don't build a pontoon bridge, even if the Russians are prepared, they don't know where to start. After the Russians' defense is relaxed, we can cross the river at night and pull up the rope first, and then it will be much easier to build a pontoon bridge. As long as we cooperate
If done properly, there will be no big problem in completing the pontoon bridge within an hour."
Tie Mo didn't want to delay it too long. If it took too long, it would give the Russians enough breathing space, which was not a good thing for the entire war. Tie Mo obviously considered this, so he nodded gently, "Just
Do as you say, but how to build the pontoon bridge, plan in advance, and don’t make too many mistakes. Now that you have done this, don’t give the Russians a chance to stand up."
Katie's eyes were full of doubts. She really couldn't understand the mystery. With an army of more than 100,000 people from the East, it could be said that they had a sure chance of victory. They slowly pushed forward and the war was won. Why did they take the initiative to open up the Great Uvat River?
What about the battle? No matter how you look at it, it seems that the Easterners are looking for trouble. Wouldn't it be better for the army of more than 100,000 to fight steadily?
Thirty thousand troops gathered on the Great Uvat River, including 20,000 cavalry. Even if a pontoon bridge was built, it would be impossible for the horses to be transported to the other side. In other words, if a battlefield was opened on the other side, the 20,000 cavalry would be equivalent to nothing.
With the advantage of cavalry, the Russians may not have any military disadvantage in a short period of time. If they are properly dispatched, they may even have a military advantage. The reason is so simple, why does the Eastern Regent insist on doing this?
Katie has a straightforward temperament and does not have many worries of Eastern women. She blinked her big eyes and whispered, "Why fight at the Great Uvat River? Once the Russians make a desperate move and gather troops, they will probably form a military advantage on the other side.
, the war horses cannot cross the river, and they lose their advantage in strength, so they are asking for trouble."
Katie consciously said what she said made sense, at least in her perception, that should be the case.
Tie Mo smiled faintly, his deep eyes full of wisdom, and pointed at the turbulent river, "Katie, do you know why I took you to observe the battlefield along the way? Because if you don't see it with your own eyes, you will never
Know what war is. War is not simply about the number of troops, but also about strategy. Sometimes there is no need to care about the gains and losses of a city or a place, you just need to grasp the fundamentals. In Russia today, what is really worth holding on to is not Omsk
, but the New Nicholas City. Therefore, opening the Battle of the Great Uvat River can force the Russians to fight a decisive battle and avoid storming the fortified city. Haha, do you think that crossing the river at this time will not have enough troops?
The advantage is to give the Russians a chance? But have you ever thought that if the Russians are not given a chance, will they come out to fight this decisive battle? Haha, the advantage in strength. The soldiers under the command of this division will fight without the advantage in strength.
Can't we win the battle? If the cavalry is dismounted, will it lose its fighting power? Katie, watch carefully, I will tell you what a strong soldier is. If you understand, fewer people will die in the future."
Tie Mo's words were quite profound, and Katie half-understood them, but she could still hear the rest of the words clearly. Somehow, a trace of anger arose in her heart, and at the same time there was some fear. The so-called few people who died,
Do you want the Scots to resist less? This Eastern man did not hide his ambition at all. He made it very clear that the Eastern army would not stop at Russia. For the sake of the foundation of future generations, it would definitely establish a foothold in Scotland.
The Easterner is a bit arrogant, but he has to admit that his confidence is full of charm, his tone is not high, but he is heroic like a hero. He stands by the river, stops and looks, as if the world is in the palm of his hand. Thirty thousand people,
Enough, 30,000 elite soldiers can defeat everything. Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, he prefers to go to the tiger mountains. Is this him?
Hai Lanzhu looked at Katie, pursed her lips and shook her head. There were too many things that Katie didn't understand. Starting from Dayangtan, the Northern Shanxi Army had fought countless bloody battles, and when had it ever crushed others with its superior strength?
, more often than not, it comes from head-to-head confrontation.
In the New Nicholas City Manor, Walkan's mood has not been very good. After the Oriental people stationed on the other side, they stopped and made no next move. There was no news from the stone bridge. The Oriental people didn't even bother to try a feint attack. For a while,
Wolkan was a little confused. Did the Easterners not want to cross the river?
Just when Volkan had doubts, the spies from the front finally sent back the news, "Grand Duke, the Orientals have recently entered the woods and cut down a lot of wood. I'm afraid they will take the next step."
Cutting down trees? Do you want to build a simple boat plank and forcibly cross the Great Uvat River? As soon as this idea came up, he could no longer suppress it. Volkan felt that he was insulted. Orientals regarded the Russian warriors as decorations. Really
Do you think you can cross the river casually? More than a dozen noble lords gathered in the castle to make plans, and finally decided to strengthen shore patrols. As long as the Easterners crossed the river, they would deal a heavy blow. At the same time, Volkan also ordered Yeltsin to seize the time to send some troops.
Troops and horses rushed to the aid of the Great Uvat River.
Volkan's intention has been very obvious, which is to fight a decisive battle on the Bolshoi Uvat River to determine the ownership of Omsk. Omsk has high walls and thick walls, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the key is that the Bolshoy Uvat River is more important.
If the river is not defended, and the city of New Nikolay falls, the entire Russia will collapse in morale, lose the will to resist, and collapse in confidence. It doesn’t matter how easy it is to defend and difficult to attack the city of Omsk. An undefended city is just a bare city.
city. This is probably why the Easterners dared to bypass Omsk and launch the Battle of the Great Uvat River.
In the city of Omsk, Yeltsin said nothing when he saw the order sent by Volkan. He could feel the helplessness in Volkan's heart. In the final analysis, the initiative on the battlefield has been firmly grasped by the Easterners and they will defend it to the end.
Omsk is just dying slowly. Relying on the Great Uvat River to fight, there is still some hope. Alas, once upon a time, the Russian Empire was so majestic, but now it is forced into such an embarrassing situation.
It is said that life in Maldives was very difficult. Not long after he led two thousand cavalry in an arrogant manner, a group of pursuers appeared from behind. His purpose of leaving the city was to hold off the Eastern cavalry as much as possible, but Maldives
Unexpectedly, this delay actually held back more than ten thousand cavalry, and many infantry retreated to intercept them. With tens of thousands of cavalry, the Easterners were really generous. Facing the encirclement and pursuit of many cavalry, Maldives felt like crying without tears. This was the first time.
Encountering such a domineering opponent, of course, I have to lament that the Easterners have abundant capital. With a wave of their hands, they can directly chase tens of thousands of cavalry. This is not even killing a chicken with a bull's knife, but simply killing a chicken with a dragon's knife.
After finally finding a place to take a breath, half an hour passed before the deputy general ran over and said, "Mr. Maldives, the Easterners are coming again. There are still many infantrymen waiting in formation in the north. Where should we run now? Whoops...
..Many brothers can hardly hold on any longer.”
Ever since I attacked several food protection teams, I have never had a peaceful life. There are always soldiers chasing behind me. Some soldiers are so tired that they almost come out. The horses are exhausted along the way. If they hadn't been robbed,
There are many horses, and I don’t know how many are lagging behind now. Maldives’ old eyes were cloudy, his head was buzzing, and he caught up again. Damn it, why do I always feel that the Orientals are playing tricks on me? It’s obviously okay.
Encirclement, but not encirclement, just following behind and refusing to let go.
He was angry, but Maldives still had to find a way to continue escaping. After looking to the north, he got on his horse and said, "Go to White Camel Mountain and enter the Grand Canyon. When we get there, everyone abandons their horses and disperses to escape."
The only thing Maldives can think of is the White Camel Mountain Grand Canyon. There is no use going anywhere else. The terrain of the Grand Canyon is complicated and the cavalry cannot be used. Maldives took the lead, and the remaining more than 1,300 remnants headed north.
When he saw that there was little hope of escaping, he went straight into the Grand Canyon. He felt that at this point, he could delay as long as he could.
What makes Maldives depressed is that the Eastern army behind them is still chasing after them, and they rush into the Grand Canyon without hesitation. Looking at the dark group of people behind them, Maldives wants to curse, they don't worry about traps, they just
Are you not worried that this is a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain?
It can be said that the people in Maldives are facing a dead end. Under heavy encirclement and suppression, even if they rush into the White Camel Mountain Grand Canyon, there is not much hope. The terrain of the Grand Canyon is complex and difficult to encircle and suppress. The key is that the mountains are bare, so there is no need to fight or encircle them.
In the last four or five days, some people probably starved to death. In fact, the Eastern Army did the same thing. The cavalry approached and threatened, and later tens of thousands of infantry were stationed on the other side. The entire White Camel Mountain Grand Canyon was blocked, and the Maldives
It can be said that those who have no wings can hardly fly.
In the city of Omsk, Yeltsin was devastated. The fate of Maldives could be predicted. It would be a lie to say he was not sad. But Yeltsin had no choice. Without sacrificing more than two thousand cavalry, he could not mobilize the Eastern cavalry. From now on
Judging from the situation, Maldives has successfully completed the task. In the blink of an eye, it has entered mid-June of the fifth year of Xuanhe, and Omsk city still has not changed much. The biggest change is that in the north and south of Omsk city
On the side, there were two tall mountains of earth. The Easterners began to arrange bows and crossbows according to the height of the mountains. This also heralded the end of the stable days of Omsk city.
On the evening of June 17, just as the family was preparing dinner, the city of Omsk fell into chaos. Arrows rained down, shattering the Russians' illusions, and the real siege began. Two earth mountains
It finally worked and occupied a high altitude advantage. The musketeers could rain down bullets into the city as much as they wanted. On the contrary, the firepower of the defenders in the city could hardly reach people outside the city. In just one hour, the defenders at the top of the city were
They suffered a heavy blow, with more than a thousand people killed and injured. The most devastating thing was that they could only be beaten passively.
Yeltsin had long since lost his temper. The city wall of Omsk was about four feet high, but the hills outside the city were about five or six feet high. The field of vision was highly suppressed, and the musketeers were inherently inferior to others. Some people used to laugh at the stupid behavior of Easterners who piled mountains of earth.
No one can laugh now. Sometimes seemingly ridiculous behavior often has very good results. The psychological pressure of being passively beaten all the time is unimaginable.
At the end of the day, Omsk city suddenly opened its four gates, and the Russians in the city rushed out like mad dogs. They attacked the garrison outside the city crazily. Everything came so suddenly and the advantage was so natural. The reaction of the Eastern Army
Soon, after overcoming the early passivity, the counterattack began. The two sides fought for nearly two hours before the Russian soldiers slowly retreated.
However, Yeltsin's goal has been achieved. In this crazy night's attack, he successfully covered tens of thousands of soldiers and rushed to the Great Uvat River under the cover of darkness. Looking at the blank night sky, Yeltsin didn't know what would happen in the future, but he could do something
Everything has been done. As for the Battle of the Great Uvat River, it depends on the Grand Duke of Volkan. Everything is at stake in this battle. In two days, the Grand Duke of Volkan only has two days. More than two days
, the Eastern Army near Omsk will be able to rush to the aid of the Bolshoi Uvat River.
At the same time, Tie Mo and Hai Lanzhu were also paying attention to the Great Uwat River. Under the cover of night, ropes were stretched across the river, and floating bridges were slowly built. Crossing the river was not a dream.
