Chapter 679: Witnesses
"It doesn't seem like an attempt to provoke us to fight with the Cossacks. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ Info "Mo Zong Channel: "Petrin and the governor have repeatedly assured me that they will first ask for reinforcements from the army, and then look for Zackerov's opponent in the Cossacks, and secretly do some things to lure and divide, and at most they can take down this person in about half a month." If we are not in a hurry, we will wait with peace of mind, and he promises that it will not take more than a month for us and Dezhnev and others to embark on the way back. In addition, 200 to 300 cavalry will be sent along the way to protect, with this strength plus our men, unless the northern captives mobilize a large army to surround us, we should be able to return to Datong safely. β
At this time, I don't know who in the corner said: "I don't know what the situation is on Li Zhuang's side, and how the fight with the Tumut Department is......"
No one answered this, after all, it was meaningless to discuss things that were not clear, and it was only when they crossed the borders of the three parts of Transkhalkha and arrived at Tumut or Karaqin that we could know how far the situation had come.
As for saying that the forces of Heyusheng were completely wiped out...... No one will think so, Li Zhuang is in the hinterland of Datong, unless the Ming Dynasty is destroyed by the Mongols, this kind of thing will never happen, even the Russians firmly believe in this, otherwise, with the hostility and war style shown by the Beiyu now, the Russians can take the opportunity to tear up the agreement.
"I can't wait." Zheng Zhilong immediately said: "Now it seems that it is a trouble for Zackerov, and it is not worth delaying for such a barbarian for a month." β
"Indeed." He Bin jumped to his feet and said: "We have been delayed here for many months, and this return trip will take at least two or three months to walk on the road, and it will take at least summer to return to Lizhuang, so I don't know how many things will be delayed." I'm still in a hurry to go to Taiwan to work for adults, what's the matter of delaying here? β
He Bin sometimes seems to speak casually, but in fact, most of them can speak to everyone's hearts.
The errand of the envoy must be a first-class achievement, but everyone has been out of Li Zhuang's inner circle for too long, and they all feel that they are not in charge, in addition to worrying about the public spirit of official business, they are also inevitably worried that they will leave the inner circle for too long, and even if they make meritorious service after going back, they will not be able to find their own position, and if they start all over again, then no one can stand it.
Especially for people like He Bin and Zheng Zhilong, who have not been in service for a long time, it is normal for people to have this worry, even if it is Mo Zongtong, I am afraid that he will not feel no sense of leaving for too long.
Of course, if you are just worried about this, everyone can still wait peacefully, but after leaving for a long time, the news is not clear, and what is really afraid is that the situation on the Li Zhuang side has changed, and many situations still need to be reported after opening the news channel, and then someone can continue to stay in the north or even Tomsk, until the normal trade route is established......
"In another month, the thawing period will come." Mo Zongtong muttered: "At least one month is muddy and difficult to walk, so it can be delayed for at least two months......"
Mo Zongtong turned to look at the room, He Bin happened to be scratching his head, the two glanced at each other, He Bin said inexplicably: "Master Mo, what do you want me to do?" β
"What about the sequel?" Mo Zongtong felt faintly uneasy.
"The sequel is still there." Zheng Zhilong looked at Gan Hui and asked, "Where did you see the continuation of the text?" β
Gan Hui said: "He pushed the door out just now, he should go out of Gong, right?" β
"It's broken." Mo Zongtong stood up and said hurriedly: "Xuwen should go to Zackerov." β
Everyone looked at each other, and at first felt that it was unlikely, and then the more they thought about it, the more they felt that it was.
Zhang Xuwen has always been gentle and polite to people, but everyone knows that he is a soft character on the outside and strong on the inside, and he will dare to act once he decides something, and when everyone is still hesitating and having a headache, Zhang Xuwen has already run out.
"Yiguan, and Gan Hui, you are assembled with all the guards and ready to stand by at any time. He Bin, you go to the Governor's Mansion and report this emergency......"
"Not looking for a sequel?" Zheng Zhilong asked with anxious and strange emotions while receiving the order.
Most of the people in the house have the same feeling, Zhang Xuwen has the dual identities of the attendant officer and Zhang Han's relatives, at first everyone didn't know, he never said it himself, and then everyone slowly knew about this relationship, Zhang Xuwen still didn't change, he did things tepidly, but he was very down-to-earth, it can be described as one step at a time, there are some old people who are Yusheng, such as Mo Zongtong knows Zhang Xuzong and Zhang Xuwen brothers, and he can't help but sigh in his heart, although they are two brothers, but their personalities are very different, a frizzy and exaggerated, One is down-to-earth and gentle.
Now don't say that Zhang Xuwen's identity is special, there must be no mistakes, even in terms of everyone's friendship with him, he definitely can't bear to see Zhang Xuwen have an accident.
"The continuation should be the best one we have ever beaten." Mo Zongtong covered his face and said: "We can't easily destroy his plan, and now it may be right, if we all run away, it will be bad if we don't follow the rules......"
Only then did everyone suddenly realize, Zheng Zhilong stood up and said, "I'm the only one, it's a witness they said." β
"I'll go too!" Gan Hui said: "According to their rules, there is more than one witness. β
β¦β¦
As soon as he came out of the warm room with the fireplace, Zhang Xuwen's somewhat faint mind immediately cleared up a lot. Then he had some conquests...... What are you thinking and what are you going to do?
Despite thinking so, his steps were still very firm towards a house at the corner of the street, which was a place where the Cossacks often gathered, filled with the smell of tobacco and alcohol and human body odor, Zhang Xuwen went to He Bin once because of curiosity, and he didn't go to the second time when he was killed, not to mention the smell of tobacco that choked people, even the smell of body odor on the Cossacks was really not something that ordinary people could bear, Zhang Xuwen's feeling at the time was that he led an elephant in, and it was enough for the Cossacks to smoke to death.
If you don't care about the cruelty of the Cossacks burning and looting the Kyrgyz when they went north along the Nissei River, Zhang Xuwen likes this group of rude and straightforward men, and after knowing Russian, he often has contacts with the Cossacks...... Cowardice and cowardice did not exist in the Cossacks, and they had to show bravery and belligerence, even if not out of real feelings...... The Cossacks had such a tradition, the traditional villages were governed by chieftains, and the Cossacks had a great degree of freedom, so they had to show themselves more traditional and defensive, more loyal to God and the Tsar than ordinary Russians......
Like Zakrov, although he is not loyal to the current Tsar, he is also loyal to the Tsar of the past, and although the current government claims to be a pseudo-Tsar, it does not seem strange that the granite heads of the Cossacks will not be able to turn around for a while......
These strange thoughts floated through Zhang Xuwen's mind, but he was getting closer and closer to the independent bright yellow house.
The color of the house is impossible on the side of the Ming Dynasty, bright yellow is bright, but it is the color of the imperial court, and it is the color that can only be used by serious royal families.
From Longqing to Wanli for so many years, the imperial court's control of the people has become more and more relaxed, wearing clothes, light yellow, red, light red, dark purple, these colors are strictly forbidden to be used by the people in the past, and now they can be used, the color of the building is not strange, but no matter what, bright yellow is definitely not good, when Zhang Xuwen first arrived in Tomsk, he also secretly accused the Russians of carelessness and lack of etiquette, but after staying for a long time, Zhang Xuwen faintly felt that the spirit of Li Zhuang's side, In fact, there are quite a lot in common with the Russians, such as emphasizing actual achievements rather than false texts, not excessively advocating etiquette, and people's interactions are as simple and convenient as possible......
Zhang Xuwen shook his head again, this time he thought of Zhang Hanlai, and unconsciously sarcastic himself in his heart: Zhang Xuwen, Zhang Xuwen, are you worthy of fighting for your cousin? Speaking of Zhang Han, he is younger than you, you haven't started a family yet, for the sake of merit and Zhang Wenlan's satisfaction, is it worth fighting with your most precious life?
This thought affected Zhang Xuwen's mood, and he stopped.
The wind is blowing on the body, and not far in front of you is the only cathedral of the Orthodox Church in the city, I heard that this is also the first building in the city, wherever the Russians go, once the settlement is built, the first thing is to build this cathedral.
Looking at the towering spire and the huge cross on the main entrance of the church, Zhang Xuwen suddenly remembered what Zhang Han had said at the beginning: What you don't want to do but must do must not be easy......
"It's not easy right now...... But it does have to be done! Zhang Xuwen muttered, but still smiled.
His feet stepped on the ground covered with snow, the snow was not thick, a thin layer, only near the upper of the shoe, in fact, in Datong this is already heavy snow, but in Tomsk, Siberia, this snow in front of him can only be regarded as the last counterattack in the middle of winter, and it will be a warm sunny day until the ice and snow thaw and everything recovers.
In fact, there are already quite a few trees that are budding, but they are covered by this snow.
There was finally a commotion at the door, the smell of tobacco and alcohol, and the smell of people's bodies came to his face, Zhang Xuwen pushed open the door with a smile and stepped forward.
β¦β¦
When Zheng Zhilong, Gan Hui and others rushed out, many people in the city were already alarmed.
These Russians did not shy away from Zheng Zhilong and others, this small city was originally not large, a total population of less than 5,000, most of them were merchants and miscellaneous men, these people gathered the specialties of Siberia everywhere, and transported them all the way back to Europe, Petrin was the representative of the merchant group, followed by some residents who had settled down, they did some chores and had their own place in the city, and then there were a small number of peasants, who opened up a lot of land around Tomsk, because of the abundance of horses, The plot is huge, sometimes a wheat field runs from east to west, and two horses have to run from morning to evening to reach the other end of the plot, so although there are not many people, there is already a lot of food produced, and at least the small city can be self-sufficient.
The most, of course, is the army and officials, this is the period of Russian expansion, full of wildness and power, Tomsk is only a center, in order to fight the Kyrgyz, the Cossacks in the garrison often take the initiative to attack, in a radius of several hundred miles the rest of the army has also opened up a number of small settlements, Russia has opened up its Asian territory for a hundred years, has been far larger than its European part, it is by the efforts of these pioneering officials and troops and Cossacks can be completed.
