Sheki is an important city in the Principality of Baku, located on the slopes of the Caucasus Mountains, with snow-capped peaks as a backdrop, and it is a beautiful scenery all year round.

It is one of the oldest cities in the Caucasus and the most important city in the Principality of Baku after the kingdom of Baku.

As the center of gravity of Baku's defense in the northwest, the army here is limited by the strength of the Principality of Baku itself, but it has a large number of military reserves. This is the same as the positioning of Baku itself.

Their own strength is very small, the country is small and the people are outnumbered, and the national army is only 10,000 people. However, the city of Baku has a huge amount of military supplies, because as long as the war is over, the boss behind them, the Persian Kingdom, will send troops to quickly rush to reinforcements.

Now the Cossacks are unscrupulously attacking these small countries of the Principality of Baku, in order to calm the hearts of the people, the willingness of the Principality of Baku to ask for help Deng Yun cannot be refused, and the strength of a reorganized regiment is not a small amount for him now.

But soon, Deng Yun became angry, because the defenders of Bazardi Jushan were disgraced.

The officers and men of the national defense forces who were assigned to guard the Bazardi Jushan were distributed in teams in many dangerous areas of the Bazardi Jushan. They camped in precise locations, all of which were very defensible, but they forgot to take into account the changing climate of the mountains.

Bazardiju is the highest peak in Baku, and the place where the Wehrmacht chose to camp was certainly not on the top of a high mountain, or even on a mountain above 1,000 meters above sea level, but at the foot of the mountain. As a result, they were hit by flash floods.

The flood caused no casualties or material damage to the defenders, for they camped on a high ground at the foot of the mountain, but the torrent turned the high ground into a pool of water, and the officers and men of that group were trapped for three days, and they watched a group of Cossack cavalry laugh loudly and pass up the hillside not far away.

It's humiliating.

Deng Yun was very angry, Wang Shan. This kind of humiliating thing actually appeared in his own defense zone. Especially as soon as the news arrived, Baku sent an urgent report asking for help.

"Rice bucket! A bunch of rice buckets! A few cavalrymen can make Baku so embarrassed! Do these people have burning sticks in their hands? ”

Wang Shan slapped the table and roared.

He was an officer who started in the American battlefield, and when he was a small squad officer, he led his own soldiers to hold the position in a battle, forcing half of the Spanish cavalry to surrender, and personally led the troops to capture a nobleman with Spanish royal blood, which was a moment that Wang Shan will never forget in his life, and it was the first highlight moment in his life. His glory was built on the corpses of the Spanish cavalry, but today he was swept away by the Russian cavalry. In front of Wang Shan, several officers stood with their necks bent, waiting for Wang Shan to release his anger.

Seeing that no one answered, Wang Shan did not turn off the fire, but became more and more annoyed the more he thought about it. The incompetence of the people of Baku is like adding fuel to the fire.

He raised his hand, pointed to the nose of one of the right lieutenant officers, and asked, "Zhang Dakang, you tell me." What does your cavalry battalion eat? Is it true that our fighters can't beat Lao Maozi, or are you yourself incompetent and can't catch up with the Cossack tail!? ”

Zhang Dakang lowered his head and didn't speak, he couldn't answer this question, it was wrong to answer it. Moreover, the Baku people were in a hurry to do this, and there was indeed a reason for the slowness of the cavalry battalion, otherwise the Cossacks would not have had a chance to attack the Arama.

Yashma is a small city on the coast of the Principality of Baku, on the south bank of the Samur River.

Zhang Dakang hesitantly changed the topic and said: "Tuanzuo, please rest assured, if the Russians dare to attack in the future, they will definitely not be let go." This time, the lowly position was really negligent. ”

Zhang Dakang is an old subordinate under Wang Shan, knowing Wang Shan's temper, when he is angry, he still takes the initiative to admit his mistakes.

This time the Cossacks attacked the area of the Samur River, and they came very quickly. It seems that he is also very familiar with the local situation, and he really 'comes without a trace, goes without a trace'. In addition, they marched in the dark, got rid of Chen Han's pursuit and interception, and then launched an attack before dawn, and left with a vote, and Zhang Dakang was indeed lax, and chose to camp when he saw that it was dark. That's what gave them an opportunity.

"Alright, alright! Don't talk nonsense with Lao Tzu! You just have to remember what you say. If I make a mistake again, you will give me a trip to the Seven Khanates as an instructor. ”

Wang Shan was very unkind to Zhang Dakang. But no one thinks that this is Wang Shan looking down on Zhang Dakang. It's because the friendship between the two is too deep. When Wang Shan was a battalion officer, Zhang Dakang was under Wang Shan. Now that Wang Shan is an old qualified group, he has been friends for ten years, if he still looks forward to speaking, then what kind of brother, friend, and comrade-in-arms is this?

But even so, when Zhang Dakang came out of Wang Shan's headquarters, there was a thin layer of bright sweat on his forehead.

Although the cavalry active in the Caucasus today is commanded and commanded by Platov, he is like an executioner wielding a broadsword, and the "knife" that kills people directly is not Platov, but his nephew - Govorov.

This is a standard Cossack, ruthlessness is his most basic factor, and he can find pleasure in killing and setting fires, which is the elite of the Cossacks.

Because happiness will make you interested, and interest is a person's best teacher. In order to experience happiness faster and more accurately, they tend to absorb the nutrients of war quickly.

A cavalry group was advancing south along the Samur River.

A black cape, a traditional Circassian robe, and a Cossack hat, the green of the earth created a strong color contrast.

Wherever the troops passed, the sky was covered with yellow dust, and they looked far away. Like a yellow dragon, it rolled down and swooped straight to the south.

The Cossacks made a comeback.

Govorov killed a rifle, but he didn't know that the combined cavalry group of China and Pakistan, with a Chinese cavalry battalion as the main center, was also rushing towards the Samur River in a frenzy. Their number is two thousand!

People shouted and neighed, and there was a boil.

Govorov stood on the side of a road that had been run out of thousands of horses on a black military horse with shiny fur, and with great confidence and pride, he looked down on the troops that drove in front of him, surrounded by his adjutants.

A horseman rode his horse and handed a message to an orderly, then turned his horse's head and galloped away.

The orderly saluted and handed the letter to Govorov's adjutant.

"Oh, it's the Admiral's order. The Chinese and the Baku have united and have begun to send reinforcements to the Samur River. His Excellency General ordered us to be sure to stick to the Chinese army, and when the troops led by him found an opportunity to cross the Samur River, the large army would attack Kuba [not Baku] to the east, cut off the retreat of the Pakistani army in the Samur River, and then ask us to cooperate with the lieutenant general's army that completely annihilated the Samur River. ”

"The latter doesn't have a lot of troops, does it?"

"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel. His Excellency the General said that the total number of troops in the Sino-Pakistani coalition is only 2,000. We are well informed. ”

Govorov laughed heartily. "It's a pretty good battle plan, isn't it? I was already able to see the scene I longed for. If I could, I would allow the Chinese to surrender, and at that time I would definitely come and accept the surrender of the Chinese, and I really wanted to see these proud Chinese bow their heads. ”

After laughing heartily, Govorov's face became so serious that he could not find the slightest smile in it.

"So we have to fight with all our might, and there must be no cheating and trickery. We will strike another heavy blow to the Chinese on the Samur River with lightning speed. ”

The best way to attract the attention of the Chinese is not to fight the Chinese, but to ravage the Baku people on the banks of the Samur River more vigorously.

"Pass my orders and tell all the soldiers and officers that if they fight in the future, who dares not to work hard, be brave, and be loyal, I will take their lives."

"Tell the order to go down and get to the Samur River first, and I will allow them to move around for two hours."

In addition to this cavalry team with the Zhang Dakang cavalry battalion as the core, there is also an infantry unit with two Chen Han infantry battalions as the core.

Although the Samur is not a very large river, it is a very important river in the Caucasus as the geographical dividing line between Kuba and Khachimas. The defense force of thousands of cavalry was really insufficient, so Wang Shan's order to the two infantry armies was to pursue, and at the same time commanded the army of Khakimas, so that they could take up the defense of the north bank of the Samur River.

As for whether it works or not, even God doesn't know.

Govorov's troops, who had returned to the horse, came to Yarama again, but fortunately the Kuba troops stationed there showed bravery, and the combined Chinese and Pakistani cavalry arrived quickly, and no one continued to drop the chain. Govorov's troops were only one regiment [six or seven hundred men], and he did not dare to fight hard, so he turned around and left before the combined cavalry of China and Pakistan arrived.

But several more villages outside the city of Yarama were destroyed by the Cossacks.

It is not an easy task to pursue an armed group with strong mobility capabilities. Otherwise, there would be no characters like Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong in Chinese history.

Especially when this armed group still has good combat effectiveness.

Chen Ming didn't know the situation in the Caucasus yet, but even if he did, he couldn't turn the tide of the war in an instant.

Chen Ming is more likely to get the cabinet to come out and provide a grant to the affected countries of the Caucasus and the Kingdom of Persia.

Chen Ming had just received the news that Austria had declared war on the Ottomans, which made him very happy.

Without Austria, Russia, and the participation of these two European powers, and Napoleon had 100,000 more veterans, how could he still lose the Sixth War against France and be exiled to the Italian island of Elba?

Moreover, the Ottoman Empire's advance in the Black Sea was now blocked, but before it was blocked, he had occupied half of the western shore of the Black Sea, and at the same time surrounded the Russian regiments on the Crimean Peninsula in the fortress of Sevastopol and the Kerch Peninsula.

Because of the superiority in military strength, the Ottomans had an advantage in the war. They had already made good progress by besieging the fortified fortress of Sevastopol without attacking the Kerch Peninsula.

Even if Barclay rushed to the Black Sea with the second and third lines of Russian troops, the Ottomans still had the upper hand, Chen Ming didn't want to see the real rise of the Ottomans from the bottom of his heart, and now the Austrians entered the war, which would interrupt the rise of the Ottomans.

Chen Ming is happy to see this situation!

……

Don't say that he has a bad heart and a bad heart. Chen Ming is the emperor, Chen Ming is a political figure, which politician have you heard of who is pure and kind?

The loyal and honest Lu Su can only exist in China, and this is reality.

He is responsible for the future of the whole of China!
