986 Battle of Sandaogou

The Ussuri River is a large river that flows from south to north, and eventually joins the Heilongjiang River and is renamed the Amur River, and flows from the North Sea into the Pacific Ocean.

The Daoqi River is one of the sources of the Ussuri River, and Sandaogou is on the west bank of the Daoqi River, a strong camp built with giant trees by the mountains and rivers.

Long Ye and Ye Qiu were lying on the hidden outpost, condescendingly observing this huge fortress with binoculars, not looking at it, I don't know if I was startled at it, the doubts of the locals are really reasonable, and the design of this military village is really very reasonable.

Sandaogou is a natural bazaar near the river, which flourished more than a decade ago when gold was discovered, and on the south side of the bazaar, the Russians built this military camp.

The river flows slowly to the north, and the military camp and market are on the west bank of the river, and the military camp is built from the river to the top of the hillside.

There is an inexhaustible supply of timber here, and the trunks of the hugging trees are buried in the ground to form a natural wall, and a layer of mud is smeared inside and outside the wall for fire prevention.

The scale of the military village of more than 1,000 people is already very large, the inside of the village is densely packed with wooden houses, and there are shooting platforms built on the inside of the wall, and sentries are pacing back and forth on them.

What's even more troublesome is that there are two earthen platforms at the commanding heights on the westernmost side, on which there are actually two field guns eyeing the surrounding area.

"A night attack can only be carried out! The breakthrough point is the westernmost side of the barracks, and we must break through the wall to control the fort as soon as possible, otherwise we will suffer heavy casualties even if we win......

"This battle must be fought very beautifully, to play the banner of the Far Eastern Volunteers, if you want these Qing Dynasty remnants to follow us in the future, then you have to let them obey ......"

Long Ye quickly determined the direction of the main attack, and the two gradually retreated from their hiding places. It was a quarter past five in the evening, and the barracks were filled with smoke, mashed potatoes, sauerkraut stew, and large leba bread had already been prepared, and the hungry soldiers were enjoying their dinner.

I didn't know that the barracks began to play the beautiful melody of the accordion, and with the red glow in the sky, the whole camp was filled with an eerie beauty.

The Russians had no idea that they had become the prey of death, and in the woods outside the barracks, a hunt had begun in the snowdrifts, and the patrols that had been released were pounced on by one special operations soldier after another, and all of them were killed without leaving any room to live.

The eyes of all the samurai and local magnates in the rear widened as darkness began to cover the land, and the Volunteers began to get closer and closer to the fortified city.

At 6:25, the earth was completely plunged into darkness, and Ye Qiu, who was lurking on the ridge, calmly used the scope to lasso the soldiers smoking on the wall, and calmly pulled the trigger.

A crisp snap broke the silence of the night, and the battle of Sandaogou officially broke out.

"The snipers scattered on both flanks and suppressed the wall...... Inoyama Chip and Maeda Yujiro each led two companies of troops to block the north and south gates, and did not use hand-to-hand combat to maintain firepower suppression, so as to buy time for the general attack...... Pang Chaoyun's demolition team is ready...... Ye Qiu is in charge of attacking head-on ......"

One order after another was given, and the volunteers, who had already been prepared, quickly entered the battle.

At this time, there was a great chaos in the camp, all the Russian soldiers did not know what was happening, and the Sandaogou market and the gold mines further away to the north of the camp were also disturbed by the sound of gunfire, and countless fires were lit up, which were countless torches.

"Riot...... It's a riot of the Chinese, everyone is ready to fight, rush to the wall! Damn bastard, how dare you do this?"

The top commander of the Sandaogou military camp is a red-bearded battalion commander, he angrily took out his pistol and began to suppress the chaos here, ten days ago Vladivostok transferred more than 200 of his elite soldiers, and now there are only 300 veterans in the barracks who control some nomadic soldiers who have taken refuge, God knows if this group of bastards has combat effectiveness.

The Russians now rule the Far East a bit like the Japanese army that invaded China in later generations, and the limited regular army had to entail a large number of indigenous people, not the natives of the Ussuri River, of course, but the nomadic herders north of Lake Baikal.

It was a game of razing and razing, in which they recruited soldiers from other places and moved thousands of miles away to suppress other ethnic minorities, the famous Cossack cavalry in history was the product of this policy.

In fact, the real Cossacks were not Russians, they were a group of nomadic herders living in the Don Plain with Turkic and Mongol blood, who were slowly hired by the tsar because of their courage to fight, and used them to expand their territory, especially to the east.

Now in the Far East, there are more than 10,000 real Russian soldiers, and the rest is actually this kind of puppet army, of course, this kind of puppet army is still different from the Japanese puppet army, because they have moved thousands of kilometers to rule in different places, so they do not have any emotional baggage for the local indigenous people, so in the eyes of the locals, they are actually real Rakshasa ghosts.

The puppet army is the puppet army, and there is still a gap between the tactical literacy and the real Russian Far Eastern Army, this group of chaotic soldiers just rushed to the wall, and they were attacked by a rain of bullets head-on, and the screams were endless, and the dead soldiers crackled and fell straight down.

The veteran yelled angrily, "Bend down...... Pay attention to concealment, don't you prepare to shoot what are you doing standing so high, looking for death?"

The redbearded battalion commander rushed to the lookout and hid behind the fence to watch the enemy situation outside: "My God, are all the Chinese in the entire Far East coming?"

In front of his eyes, the whole land was full of torches, and there was no end in sight, and the number had to be eight thousand, if not ten thousand, could it be that he had been surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, could it be the Qing army?

Yes, it must be the Qing army, this group of treacherous villains actually tore up the treaty, they declared war on the great Russia.

"Close the gate of the wall, no one is allowed to attack, hold the wall! Outside is the regular army of the Qing State...... Artillery preparation! Artillery fire on the enemy's most densely populated areas!"

Boom...... Two old front-loading field guns exploded into two flames in the wild, and several figures were thrown into the air in the light.

"Accelerated assault...... Fire suppression...... The demolition team ...... forward"

Pang Chaoyun's demolition team quickly zigzaged forward, quickly approaching the wall amid the rumbling of cannons, and behind him fifteen snipers were providing fire support.

"Hurry up, hurry up, ......" Fifteen soldiers quickly approached the west wall of the wall with explosives in their arms, but as soon as they rushed to 20 meters of the wall, a soldier suddenly fell to the ground with a sigh.

"Sir, here's a trap ......" The soldier's left foot stepped into a trap more than twenty centimeters in diameter, and below it was sharpened wooden thorns, and the soles of his feet were pierced.

The screams alarmed the Rakshasa ghosts not far away, "Look, the enemy is trying to approach the wall, shooting ......" The wall was suddenly filled with white smoke, and the blasting team was suddenly swept down.
