The 60,000 Tsarist Russian army was besieged by the Ming cavalry regiments and could not move.

One hundred and sixty field artillery pieces of the Ming artillery battalion were carrying out the most intense artillery bombardment of the encircled Tsarist army.

The artillery fire continued to be in the sky, and the Russian soldiers were constantly killed, and the tragic atmosphere enveloped the entire Tsarist army.

Ji Feng did not personally command on the front line of the battlefield, but watched the battle in the rear with the Duke of Zhunger, in order to let the Duke of Zhunger see the whole battle more clearly, Ji Feng also gave the Duke of Zhunger a telescope.

Ji Feng and Zhunger Gong watched the development of the Great War through telescopes together.

Battlefield fronts.

As the heavy artillery bombardment of the artillery battalion began, most of the Ming army began to dismount and form an infantry formation, under the command of Chang Shunhou, the commander of the Seventh Army, at the front.

About 20,000 Ming troops formed an infantry battle formation, and the remaining 8,000 or so cavalry continued to roam the outside of the battlefield to prevent the Russian army from escaping.

Of the 60,000 troops of Tsarist Russia, in addition to the 6,000 musketeers, there were 4,000 cavalry, and the remaining 50,000 were all ordinary infantry.

Although the territory of the Tsarist Russian Empire was vast, due to the serfdom and the obsession with the territory, it waged wars against the surrounding areas every year, and Tsarist Russia was actually extremely poor, as can be seen by looking at the coarse cloth coats of almost all the soldiers of the Tsarist Russian army.

"Boom Boom"

The fierce artillery bombardment did not stop for a moment, and the musket team, cavalry formation, and infantry formation of the Tsarist army all suffered heavy blows, a large number of soldiers were killed and wounded, stumps and broken arms were flying, blood mist was filled, and the screams of wounded Tsarist soldiers were everywhere.

Petrotsov, the commander of the Tsarist Russian army, had already been stunned, and only at this moment did he react slightly.

Where did this strange army come from, why did there be such an advanced cannon, it is impossible for Jungar to have such an army, staring at the five-clawed golden dragon banner of the Ming army with a gloomy face, Marshal Petrotsov finally thought of something, and his expression was shocked.

Dragon Banner, is this the legendary army of the Eastern Empire?

Since the opening of the Silk Road in the Han Dynasty, Europe and the Central Plains Dynasty had contact for the first time, and then porcelain, tea and countless other dazzling exquisite artifacts were transmitted to Europe, and Europe set off a legend of the Oriental Empire that lasted for more than 1,000 years.

Even the reason why Europe embarked on the road of opening up seafaring. A large part of the reason was that the Ottoman Empire blocked the Silk Road, and they wanted to trace the location of the Eastern Empire, and they could not do without silk, porcelain, tea and many other items from the Eastern Empire.

It is a symbol of glorious civilization!

With the opening of the navigation route, Spain and Portugal were the first to bring the Ming to the Ming by sea, and they also bought a large number of Ming goods to ship back to Europe, and then earned a lot of gold and silver.

Following the path of Spain and Portugal, the Dutch rose to prominence, also shipping Ming goods to Europe, and it was by almost monopoly that the Netherlands finally established maritime supremacy.

Now, the rising stars England and France have also come to the Ming Dynasty, and they are also scrambling to ship the goods of the Ming Dynasty, and even in order to fully seize the monopoly of the Ming goods from the Dutch, England and France have jointly carried out several times with the Netherlands, and the Dutch have choked enough.

In recent years, although the territory of Tsarist Russia is rapidly expanding to the Far East, and even has occupied Siberia, and has direct contact with the Ming Dynasty in Lake Baikal and the Outer Northeast, it is only a matter of one or two years.

However, it does not mean that they do not have a reverence for the legendary Eastern Empire.

Marshal Debizov gritted his teeth with an iron face, if it was really the legendary Eastern Empire that intervened, then he would have to carve up Dzungar and expand the territory of Tsarist Russia.

Thinking of this, Marshal Petrotsov thought of the recent period, the scouts did not find any trace of the Cossacks, it stands to reason that the Cossacks have always attacked Dzungar before them, and this time should have captured the Dzungar Khan's tent a long time ago, but in this steppe, which is not far from the Dzungar Khan's tent, not only did they not find any trace of the Cossacks, but they were subjected to a fierce attack by the army of the Eastern Empire, what does this portend?

"Shhh

"Boom Boom"

"Marshal be careful!" Petrotsov was suddenly thrown to the ground by the guards on the side.

A shell exploded not far from where Petrotsov was standing just now, and if the guards around him hadn't pounced on him in time, he would have been seriously injured in the explosion just now.

Rising from the ground, Petrotsov's face turned even paler, no matter what, he had to defeat this Eastern Empire army first.

"Order, the whole army will attack to the southwest!" Petrotsov glanced at the situation around him and then shouted and ordered.

The artillery of the Eastern Empire army is too powerful, there is not only a slope valley in the southwest that can be defended, but also far away from the artillery of the Eastern Empire army, although Petrotsov is not a great general, it does not mean that he has no brains, at least he is still a little more powerful than ordinary people, and knows what to do to his advantage.

The Tsarist Russian army had just made a move and was seen by the generals of the Ming army.

"Want to run? Hmph, is it possible! Chang Shunhou, the front-line commander, sneered.

"Order, infantry attack and advance!" Chang Shunhou calmly ordered.

The 20,000 soldiers of the Ming Army formed four huge infantry formations and began to press closer to the Tsarist army.

"Bang Bang Bang"

"Poof! Burst! Poof" bullets penetrate the bodies of soldiers of the Tsarist army.

On the periphery, the remaining 8,000 Ming cavalry also fired intensively to stop the momentum of the Tsarist army moving southwest, killing and wounding a large number of Tsarist Russian troops.

The artillery battalion also saw the idea of the Tsarist Russian army, and the artillery fire also began to extend to the southwest, blocking the way for the Tsarist Russian army to move southwest.

The blockage of the Ming cavalry, the fact that a large number of soldiers were killed and wounded by heavy artillery fire, and the continuous attack of 20,000 Ming infantry, Marshal Petrotsov knew that he could not calmly retreat with a large army in such a situation.

"You can't retreat, you can only fight!" Marshal Petrotsov gritted his teeth with a hideous face.

More than ninety percent of the Tsarist Russian army is infantry, and retreating in such a situation, it is almost inevitable to be pursued by the Ming cavalry infantry, not to mention that the army has many war horses, it is obviously impossible to escape, and it is very easy for the army to evolve into a rout, Petrotsov is not so stupid.

With the determination of a decisive battle with the Ming army on the spot, the Tsarist Russian army gave up the idea of retreating to the southwest and reorganized its military formation on the spot to resist the attack of the Ming army.
