November 15th, the third year of Dalong Taiping.
Horses trample on the snow and wet mud splashes.
Dots of red blood bloomed like wintersweet, dotting the white snowfield.
Broken flags, frozen people, horse corpses, and all kinds of blood-stained weapons were scattered on the grassland.
It outlines a majestic and sad picture.
Groups of wolves were dragging and tearing at the corpses on the ground, frightening the carnivorous eagles and vultures in the sky so that they did not dare to fly down easily.
After the unification of the world, the Shibi tribe was divided into two parts, and the Dulu tribe was divided into two. The north and south each guarded half of the territory of the Spisi grassland. In this cold winter month, what should have been seen in front of the world is thousands of mountains and birds flying away.
The lonely mood of no trace of people.
However, at this moment, the Spieth Grassland leads to the thousands of miles of snowfields in the Yinshan Mountains. The cold wind is howling, thousands of horses are galloping, and the chilling atmosphere is blowing towards our faces.
Dalong dragon flags, Dalong guard camp flags, Xinfu soldiers' wolf flags, Beifu soldiers' guard camp flags, all kinds of flags were intertwined together, making a sharp sound in the cold wind.
On the boundless snowfield, a majestic and beautiful picture of the prosperous times of a great country is drawn.
In front of tens of thousands of dragon elite cavalry, several miles away, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from Tsarist Russia and the former Western Turkic Royal Court were running exhausted, forgetting everything and running towards the north of Yinshan Mountain.
It's as if the tens of thousands of dragon soldiers and horses behind him are demons that want to devour people's lives!
"Spith, Slav, you two bastards, didn't you tell me that the Great Dragon Kingdom you said in your mouth would not take the initiative to use force against us?
What is going on now? Tell me what is going on now?
Now all the infantry and soldiers under my general have been destroyed by the encirclement and suppression of the dragon's troops, leaving only tens of thousands of cavalry commanded by the two of you.
How do you ask this general to explain to His Majesty the Tsar?"
Slav hurriedly looked back at the tens of thousands of dragon cavalry behind him who were chasing after him, then turned to look at the general who was riding alongside him and was similar in age to him.
Feeling the questioning gaze in the other party's eyes, Slav's eyes also flashed with anger.
"Ledev, what qualifications do you have to question this general? If the infantry soldiers under his command had not disobeyed orders and shot the scout soldiers patrolling the border without authorization, how could they have caused such a fatal disaster?
We were ordered to secretly sneak into the Dalong border to dig out the treasure left by Spies, not to start a war with Dalong.
If you can't control the troops under your command, why should you blame me?
If I and Spieth hadn't fought Dalong's soldiers and horses a few years ago and understood their fighting methods, not only would all the infantry and soldiers under your command have been wiped out, but the tens of thousands of cavalry under my and Spieth's command would have been wiped out.
He has also died long ago without a burial place.
This general saved your life, why do you blame me? What qualifications do you have to accuse me?"
The Tsarist Russian general, who was called Ledev by the Slavs, looked stiff: "You! It was you two who wanted to tell me that Dalong's troops would not take the initiative to use force against us, so I sent them without any precautions.
Soldiers and horses went to Spies Prairie to dig for treasure.
If you told me that they might send troops, how could I not be prepared in advance?"
Spismult cast a faint glance at the two men who were galloping to escape while chattering and blaming each other, and endured the cold wind that was coming towards them and poured it into their mouths.
"Stop arguing, what's the use of talking about this now? Let's think about how to evacuate from the border of Dalong first.
Once we are surrounded by dragon soldiers and horses, we will all die!
Ledev, Ben Khan and General Slav told you that the dragon army would not use force against us. Did we lie to you?
Before your soldiers killed Dalong's border patrol scouts, our scattered troops and horses encountered Dalong's border patrol scouts many times by accident. But once did they take the initiative to send troops to attack us?
Ben Khan was the original Turkic Khan, and he knew very well the living habits of our Turkic people.
Unless the tribe is endangered, they will not take the initiative to send troops to fight in the cold winter and heavy snow.
It was your soldiers who broke the unspoken agreement first!"
While the three were arguing, a cavalryman dressed as a Turkic eagle shooter came towards the exhausted front army of tens of thousands of soldiers from both countries.
"Report!"
"Reporting to the Great Khan, a large dragon cavalry of about 30,000 people in the Yinshan Mountains is rushing towards our army.
We are surrounded by them, and they have already laid out an ambush."
"Report!"
"Reporting to the Great Khan, three miles away to the east, a Jin eagle guard and black wolf cavalry flags are combined. About ten thousand soldiers and horses are attacking our army in a roundabout way.
It seems like they are going to surround us in one fell swoop!”
Spiesmult's expression froze when he heard the report from the two condor scout brothers who had made a circuitous turn and turned their horses to keep pace with him.
Subconsciously, I glanced in the north and east directions.
As the two narrow black lines that seemed to come from the sky gradually became clearer, Spiesmult suddenly felt a sense of helplessness in his heart, with no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth.
The two Tsarist Russian generals, Slav and Ledev, who did not understand Turkic language, stopped arguing and looked at the absent-minded Spiesmult.
"Spith? What happened? Why does your face look so strange?"
However, before Spiesmult could answer their questions, their frozen cheeks became even stiffer due to the cold wind hitting them.
Looking at the long and narrow black line heading towards them from the direction of Yinshan, Slav and Ledev's hands and feet were cold, and the hairs on their bodies wrapped in bear skins stood up.
"Big Dragon... Big Dragon's flag?"
"Spith, what should we do now? You were the master of this grassland after all. You know the terrain here better than we do. What should we do now?"
"There are Dalong's soldiers and horses in all three directions: let's retreat to the west? Is that okay?"
"Spith, what are you stunned for? Is it okay to retreat to the west?"
Spies looked lonely and raised the riding crop in his hand and pointed to the west: "See for yourselves!"
The two of them immediately moved away from their position alongside Spiesmult and leaned forward to look to the west.
On the snow-covered snowfield, there was an army of about 50,000 infantry. Ten infantry phalanxes with 5,000 people had already been set up in an offensive and defensive formation.
At a speed ten times weaker than that of the cavalry, they were slowly approaching the position in front of them on their right.
Although the speed of the fifty thousand infantry was slow, the pressure they brought to them was no less than the tens of thousands of dragon cavalry chasing after them.
Because they saw hundreds of jet-black cannons that had been set up on the sleds behind the horses in front of the infantry phalanx, as well as the muzzles of the cannons that radiated coldness towards their tens of thousands of troops.
Slav and Ledev had only one sudden thought in their minds.
We are surrounded.
Without waiting for the three Spiesmulters to give orders, the tens of thousands of cavalrymen from the two countries' coalition forces had already slowed down their escape and looked at the dragon enemy troops encircling them from all directions with panicked expressions.
Zhou Baoyu raised the flag in his hand and waved it with laughter.
"Instruct the officers and soldiers of the three armies to attack in all directions and form an encirclement in three layers. No one is allowed to escape.
Together with the other guards, battalions, and troops, they killed each other.
Tell the brothers, you can have a drink of wine to warm yourself up!"
"Got the order!"
The messengers rushed away with banners raised. Zhou Baoyu breathed hot air into his palms, took off the wine bag on his horse and took a swig.
"You guys, Ye Baotong, Yeluhu, Zhebieshu, Cai Jun, they really did not disappoint me. They finally caught the remaining soldiers of the two countries in a jar!"
Putting the wine bag back, Zhou Baoyu wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth and silently watched the enemies surrounded, murmuring softly.
"Your Majesty, even though one of Baoyu and Baotong is blind and the other is lame, they can still provide peace for Your Majesty.
You can also stand alone and fight on the battlefield!"
