Chapter 412 Arming the Western Fierce Kingdom
Ramathai can only clench his fists! The short steel spear made him dare not look directly.
Ay! Geldan smiled lightly and said: "The Imperial pro-army is brave!" Sure enough, it lives up to its name! Commander Zhu Xin, my fierce man has been defeated! After the solid spring, it will go west! I hope that the empire will leave a lifetime of road! β
In order to revive and save the country, Geldan no longer cares about personal dignity.
Geldan Khan confessed, and Zhu Xin also got the answer he wanted.
"Haha good! Sure enough, it is worthy of what the lord said: be a hero in the world! β
In the original history, the later Geldan occupied half of the grassland, and if it were not for the Qing army to go north, Geldan would also become the new Menggu Great Khan. Because of this great civil war, the Menggu tribes no longer had the strength to get rid of the rule of the Manchus, and the Menggu tribe began to melt into Yanhuang.
Be a hero in the world! Geldan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Don't dare to be called the emperor!" β
He's just a defeated king, not a hero!
Zhu Xin was not in the mood to be polite anymore, so he said directly: "Since then! This seat will retire first! Governor Suritang is tired of you. β
Next is the main event, and Zhu Xin and his heavy cavalry are not easy to participate in.
After Zhu Xin left with his personal guards, Geldan asked suspiciously: "King of the East, what does this mean?" β
Even though Suritang had rebelled, his eastern army had also subdued the Dzungar Khanate.
Su Litang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Geldan Khan, don't be dusty any longer!" Soon after, the Yarkand Khanate will also become history! β
Knowing that the Yarkand tribe no longer has the courage to resist, but Geldan couldn't help but sigh at this time!
"Huh! The rise and fall of the grassland! But the Han people have been reincarnated with Han blood repeatedly! How unjust God is! β
Su Litang sighed and shook his head: "Okay! Grdan Khan! The ambition of the West Fierce still depends on you! Governor, I also handed over some armor, weapons, grain and grass to you, as well as 10,000 war horses, 10,000 strong cattle, and 20,000 sheep! Wangxi Mengguo should not live up to the hearts of the princes of the grassland! β
10,000 horses, 10,000 cattle, and 20,000 sheep, Geldan was also shocked by Suritain's generosity.
"Thank you for the meaning of the Turpan Ministry! I, Geldan, only want to go west, and when the main force of Hasha comes out of the east, I will leave immediately! "Suritang's reminder also made Geldan clear! He can now have 400,000 troops, also because of the strategy of advancing westward. If he still wants to stay, he can't be said that the coalition forces will be the first to attack him.
Geerdan's statement also reassured Su Litang! "Alright, let your people hand over! We're going too! β
The handover of 100,000 men and horses was quickly completed, and SulitΓ£o and 20,000 cavalry immediately turned and left.
Geldan had seen enough cattle, sheep, horses, and grain, and he didn't have the heart to check it. With a year's grain and grass for an army of 350,000, it also made Geerdan, who was going westward, full of confidence.
Cattle, horses, sheep, and the western fierce cavalry didn't care too much, and the food of the Han people made them more excited.
"Ahh This is the general's armor! β
"That's not right! How are there so many knives and steel guns! β
I thought that the ox cart was full of grain and forage, but the weapons in the cart frightened everyone.
Ramathai, who was quickly confirmed, immediately ran to the big tent in panic, this amount was too frightening.
"Great Khan! Su Litang actually moved the equipment depot of the Han army! Will it be! β
Geldan was also puzzled: "What kind of equipment library, some weapons are not normal!" β
Ramatai immediately shook his head: "Great Khan, we have probably counted some wooden boxes: at least 20,000 generals' armor, at least 50,000 steel scimitars, more than 20,000 long steel tube guns, and even 30,000 cavalry crossbows, and 10,000 infantry crossbows!" There are also many half-body riding shields and full-body heavy shields! Bows and arrows, crossbow arrows are even more numerous! β
"What! How is this possible! Are you sure! "Geldan was also frightened! How could Suritang have so many weapons and equipment!
Ramathai nodded firmly: "Great Khan, just follow me!" β
Sure enough, after a while, seeing boxes of weapons and armor, Geldan finally believed it!
"Huh! Is this the power of the Empire! Perhaps, I have 400,000 cavalry in the west, and the empire has never taken it to heart! At this moment, Geerdan also knew the purpose of Zhu Xinlai!
The more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and Ramathai said: "The Great Khan handed over the equipment of the Han Chinese to our troops, even if he faced them: the well-equipped Cossack cavalry could defeat them." β
The defeat of the fierce men in the northern steppes, the main thing is that they are not well equipped! In the face of Beimaozi, who was equipped with armor and even firearms and artillery, the fierce man could only be defeated again and again.
"That's it! Rama, we will keep sixty percent, and the rest will be divided among the armies! "Geldan doesn't dare to swallow it all to himself, otherwise there will definitely be a gap between the rest of the ministries.
"Decree the Great Khan!" Sixty percent is enough, and Ramathai doesn't really want to swallow it.
β¦β¦
As soon as he returned to the Turpan border army station, Su Litang also asked: "Commander Zhu, the empire is not afraid of their counterattack!" β
Tens of thousands of knives, guns, shields, and even powerful crossbows! Say send, send! Su Litang can't see clearly, the meaning of the empire!
Zhu Xin had nothing to do, so he stood up and said, "Suzhou Chief, Bofan, General Sun Ke, you go with me first to see the 10,000 infantry sent by the lord." β
After the end of the war, the three pro-army and the three border armies also began to partially replace their firearms.
Now the number of the three border troops has reached more than 60,000, and the new 10,000 people are all carrying new muskets.
For the 10,000 new arrivals, Su Litang has only heard of it but has not seen it. However, he knew that the addition of these 10,000 firearms soldiers also made the strength of Bian Yijun's stronger.
Knock knock ~ As soon as the war drums of the assembly sounded, 10,000 recruits also began to line up.
"Ah, what kind of cannons are these!" The dense artillery of all sizes also scared Bofan.
Sun Ke often asked people to bring the Imperial Army to report to him, and he also knew the appearance of these artillery.
"One hundred 45 rocket launchers, one hundred 60 mortars, fifty 75 mountain guns, ten 105 heavy guns! This! That's twice as much as the armies! β
Zhu Xin nodded with a faint smile: "The rest of the main army only has one or two heavy artillery, but our own soldiers are the most loyal soldiers of the Great Emperor, and no one will reveal the secret of the imperial heavy weapons." β
Chen Xiong was reluctant to assemble various armies on a large scale, and he was also afraid of being stolen and bought by Western European powers. There are many people and miscellaneous hands, and wealth is moving, and some situations are difficult to completely cut off.
The corps commander had arrived, and the commander of the 3rd Division immediately shouted: "The demonstration battalion is out of the queue and goes to the shooting range." β
"Honorable Order." A thousand spearmen immediately ran forward, and then lined up in four.
The first column crawls on the ground, the second squats on the ground, the third half squats on the ground, and the fourth stands upright.
"So fast!" Su Litang couldn't help but nod, the discipline and military formation of the Han army were something that their Hu people would never learn.
"Guys, you'd better cover your ears." After speaking, Zhu Xin nodded.
The commander of the third division also immediately shouted: "Start, shoot." β
This time the gunfire directly replaced the return order, and the dense gunfire immediately covered everything.
Bang Bang~
Bang Bang~
Four columns of 1,000 muskets fired directly, and the earth and stone wall a few hundred meters away was immediately covered with rocky and earth.
Bang bang bang ~ only three or four seconds, the dense gunfire rang out again.
The gunfire stopped only after the one-meter wall in front of it was completely turned to dust.
"Hey! This! The buzzing ears were already deaf, but Su Litang's heart was even more alarmed.
After the shooting, the spearman immediately drew his bayonet, and then the musket in his hand turned into a one-meter-seven bayonet.
