Zhou Huchen had no intention of staying in Bratsk, for him, who was eager to conquer the whole of Siberia, this place was very suitable for a supply depot, and the garrison value was not bad, but unfortunately Zhou Huchen had no energy, so he could only stay later.

Since you have taken it down, of course you have to go in and have a look. The bunker was still a civil structure, except thatched huts, and the Cossacks were poor to death, a bunch of poor ghosts, who had nothing but clothes, horses, and weapons. Except for a small amount of meat and fur, there was not a single grain of food in the earthen fort, so that Zhou Huchen finally saw the face of the Cossacks as some beggars who were desperate to eat a full meal.

Disposing of the captured Cossack soldiers, Zhou Huchen and Sun Dayong set off in two ways.

Zhou Huchen's goal was to go up the river, and at the same time as Zhou Huchen was going up the river, the water of the Angara River suddenly rose, and the snowmelt spring flood came.

Zheng Sen's soldiers had no choice but to reluctantly abandon the captured wrecked ships. The ship is very dilapidated and belongs to the Rakshasa people, although these ships are very unsightly, but it is a ship after all, and the navy has its own naval complex. Boats are much closer to them than horses.

The flood affected Zhou Huchen's progress, but it only affected Zhou Huchen's resolute pace.

In the middle of April of the fourth year of Hongguang, Zhou Huchen came to the bank of the Yenisei River along the Angara River.

The march was unusually smooth, encountering the nomadic and hunter-gatherers of the Evenki and Kirgiz, and when the army reached the mouth of the Middle Tunguska River to the east, it encountered some unexpected people.

Buryats, there are Buryats here.

The appearance of the Buryats was undoubtedly a boon to Zhou Huchen, who was familiar with the nearby Buryats, and the Yeniseisk was already unfolding before his eyes

Following Zhou Huchen's orders, Sun Dayong marched south along the tributaries on the west side of the Angara River.

Four days later, a cavalry force of 5,000 men was left in place by Sun Dayong. On the west side is the already green steppe, the same steppe that first came into Siberia.

Sun Dayong ran to the southeast, which was the entrance to the southern end of the small sea. It is estimated. The supplies are almost here, and the spring in the Guannai is coming early, no better than this Siberia, and Sun Dayong estimates that the supply team and the immigrant army will arrive in the near future.

There are traces left by those Rakshasas by the river, so Sun Dayong must go to meet them immediately, otherwise, a problem with the massive supply will be a disaster.

The green grass was left behind, and the cavalry ran wildly

Having just been promoted from deputy general to chief soldier, Guo Ziqing was in a good mood, and he sat in front of the huge team.

Say goodbye to the Mongol cavalry who guarded them. Over a low hill. Guided by several horns and Buryats. Guo Ziqing appeared in the valley southwest of the Siberian Sea.

65,000 soldiers, with more than 160,000 soldiers' families, all kinds of household utensils, ammunition and food. It's a huge moving force that is half a mule. Except for the young and strong, all the old and infirm and women have a car to sit on. At the beginning of the paddock, a journey of three thousand miles, the huge team took two full months. During this time, Guo Ziqing received help from the Mongols, who crossed the vast Mongolian steppes and then came to this strange land.

The losses along the way are negligible, and there is no escape, which is Guo Ziqing's ability. His tenacity and leadership skills are unquestionable.

According to several Buryat guides, as soon as they leave this big valley, someone will come to pick them up, and Guo Ziqing has already seen the light.

Spring in Siberia seems to be no different from the Central Plains, Guo Ziqing does not feel the legendary cold, and the air here is very fresh. There is no wind and sand like the Mongolian steppe, but it feels extremely comfortable.

"Report to the general, an unknown ranger was found outside the valley mouth ahead, and there are many cavalry behind."

Suddenly, a scout Pegasus arrived.

The unknown rangers, Guo Ziqing wondered, it would definitely not be his own team, if it was his own cavalry, it would be impossible for the scouts not to recognize it, could it be the Buryats?

"How many? Is it a local nomadic tribe? ”

"General Hui, there are about 100 rangers in front, and about 3,000 cavalry in the follow-up, and the Buryat guide said that it is not a local nomadic tribe, it may be those Rakshasas, but they have not seen Rakshasas, so they are not sure."

The three thousand cavalry haven't seen it in Guo Ziqing's eyes, and the Rakshasa people haven't seen it, but they are also people, and they will never be invulnerable. What's more, the big marshal seems to have gone deep into Siberia, and there is nothing to be afraid of these Rakshasas, and it should be a pure accident to come here.

With a wave of the horsewhip, Guo Ziqing immediately commanded the large army to stop and rest, and then more scouts greeted him.

Although he didn't believe that his team would lose to the Rakshasas, Guo Ziqing didn't dare to take it lightly. Because there are very few veterans under his command, almost all of them are newly attached soldiers, and there are great variables in combat effectiveness, and he is afraid that these soldiers will collapse. And the consequences of the rout are extremely serious, the collapse of more than 200,000 people is a disaster, plus countless supplies, once there is an accident, he Guo Ziqing can't afford it.

After moving forward for a long time, Guo Ziqing raised the clairvoyant mirror and began to observe the situation in front of him.

In the clairvoyant mirror, the scout and those Rakshasas are closer, and these monkey-like people are Rakshasas. Guo Ziqing thinks that the Buryats are very figurative, and these monkey-like people do look like rakshasas.

And these rakshasas also seemed to be a little surprised by the appearance of the Ming army scouts, they stopped their horses, and then discussed with each other.

Guo Ziqing admitted that although these Rakshasas were extremely ugly, they were very strong and decisive, and after a slight pause, the Rakshasa Rangers immediately rushed up.

At the moment of action, Guo Ziqing discovered that these Rakshasa ghosts had the same tactics as his own cavalry. The Rakshasa people were also using firecrackers on horses, which made Guo Ziqing a little surprised. These Rakshasa ghost riding skills are very exquisite at a glance, no weaker than their own scouts, the use of fire guns is extremely skilled, when someone on both sides was shot off the horse, Guo Ziqing finally realized that these Rakshasa ghosts are by no means simple.

The scout cavalry trained by Zhou Huchen will definitely not be weak, and the battle ratio is almost five or five, and now it seems that these Rakshasas are enough to be called a strong enemy.

"Come on, let the cavalry team prepare, and have a good fight with these rakshasa ghosts!" There are still cavalry trained by Zhou Huchen in this world, and Guo Ziqing is in a fog, and at the same time he is interested.

The scouts were only a prelude to the battle, and in order to test the reality of the other side and understand the situation, such a horse had only a limited number of combatants, the accuracy of the firearms was limited, and the casualties on both sides were not many.

As the small group of Rakshasa cavalry slowly retreated, the cavalry of the Rakshasa people finally came up, and Guo Ziqing's cavalry also decisively came up. This time into Siberia, Guo Ziqing brought 15,000 cavalry, and the real fire cavalry was only 5,000, in order to protect the large army, these 5,000 cavalry could not all be pulled up, Guo Ziqing also dispatched 3,000 cavalry, and the two sides were just equal.

The Rakshasas were very bold, and they were not afraid to see the huge ranks of the Ming army. Without warning, the Rakshasa cavalry was the first to move after a slight adjustment, and these Rakshasa firearm cavalry in brown leather robes adopted the most direct attack method, a horizontal formation that was not heavy.

This is the cavalry's bloody combat method, that is, you are a strong confrontation between life and death. There was no choice, Guo Ziqing waved his hand, and with an order, the Ming cavalry went up.

No one knew the details of the other party, and the world's top cavalry collided fiercely in an accident.

Arquebuses and flintlock muskets made no difference in this type of horse combat, and all soldiers had only one chance to fire their muskets. Of course, this is talking about the long fire gun, when the cavalry of the Rakshasa people drew their swords after firing the fire gun, the advantage of the Ming cavalry was reflected, and they also had a short fire gun.

Each of them had two more chances, and these two chances let these brave Cossacks know the power of the Ming cavalry.

The sound of firecrackers, horses' hooves, gunsmoke, and the roars of warriors all converged

Sharp swords resounded, countless fierce cavalry fell off their horses, a naked strong collision, and a close-range strangulation

None of the cavalry on either side retreated, and they bravely rushed at their enemies until they were cut off their horses. It was the battle of the brave, and all the cavalry understood that retreat meant death and the loss of courage to fight, and in the eyes of these warriors, death was far less important than their own dignity.

These Rakshasa ghosts are extremely strong at close range, and their combat power should surpass that of Jiannu's Eight Banners. Guo Ziqing watched expressionlessly as his cavalry kept falling off his horse, his heart was dripping blood, because his cavalry was obviously inferior to these Rakshasas at close range
