254 The battle is not over

Surrey. Assman's explanation of the position of the Cossacks everywhere, and the profit-oriented point of view, just provoked the G point in the heart of the Cossack Getman leader, perhaps, the Cossack warriors at the bottom are very simple, but the person who can be the leader of the Cossack Getman at least has the wisdom above the passing line, and naturally can also hear Sarry. 'Off-string sound' in Assman's words.

As for Surrey. The possibility of Assman's deception was subconsciously ignored by the Cossack Getman leaders. Assman himself is the supreme leader of the Cossack tribe in the lower reaches of the Dnieper, the boss of the leader, the stronger the Cossack tribe, the higher his status, and the Cossack hetman leaders below, it is naturally difficult to think that this usually cunning and arrogant boss will think about the interests of others......

"Leader Assman, if we help the Taiping Army to eliminate the Russian Imperial Expeditionary Force, we will inevitably offend the Russian Empire, and even the Polish-Lithuanian Kingdom, an ally of the Russian Empire, will include us in the enemy's target, is it really worth it?"

"Hehe, do you think that the Russians who have been beaten to the doorstep by the Taiping army now have the ability to attack us, or the Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania, which has fallen most of the land and is dying, can bite us?

You might as well look at the map, after forming an alliance with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, which is surrounded by enemies, the Kingdom of Poland and Lithuania and the Russian Empire on both sides are in a state of full-scale war with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and they are still at a disadvantage!

We only need to finish this battle, and we don't have to fight for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom anymore, when the time comes, only the Crimean Khanate in the south has the strength to hinder the establishment of our Cossack United Emirate and the 'liberation' of other Cossack tribes, and the current Crimean Khanate has been broken by the Russians, and has become a lackey of the Ottomans, and it will not be able to stop the sword of our Cossack warriors! ”

After the last scruples were dispelled, the doubts of the head of the Cossack Getman finally disappeared. At this time, Assman had already memorized the names and appearances of the Cossack hetman leaders who opened his mouth to ask questions, and on the surface, he could not do anything to them in order to calm the hearts of the Cossacks, but after going to the battlefield, there were many accidents.

Isn't it normal to fight a war and die people?

Moreover, on the battlefield, it is not uncommon for the hetman leader to lead his fighters to kill the enemy.

In this way, in early January 1653, the army of the Ten Thousand Cossacks jumped over the Zhytomyr region and went to the theater of operations of the Russian Imperial Expeditionary Force.

Naturally, not all of these tens of thousands of people were soldiers, and even though the Cossack tribes practiced a system of all soldiers, there were also old people and women, who often followed the army as logistics personnel such as men and miscellaneous men.

Men were responsible for killing the enemy on the battlefield, and women and children were responsible for cooking, washing and drying groceries, and this was the pattern of Cossack fighting.

It is also a real sense of the whole people's soldiers!

If necessary, these old Cossacks and strong women will also raise their knives and fight for the last survival, but if it is really at that time, there is little point in fighting women and children, old and weak, at most it is just to make more corpses.

In mid-January, in the ruins of a small town in the western part of the Kyiv region, Xiang Dongqiang held a blood-stained blade and looked at the Russian soldiers who had fled away, standing on the abandoned masonry and shouting: "There are still a few gaspy, stand up!" ”

Ten minutes later, 25 elite musketeers of the Taiping Army, with their bodies wounded and tired, stood in a straight line in front of Xiang Dongqiang.

"Report to the division commander, the second pawn of the first regiment, the third two and two Sima Huo salute you in vain!"

The only remaining officer of the 25 people, the two Sima officers, came out of the line and saluted.

Xiang Dongqiang's eyes swept around from left to right, and he looked at the surrounding towns that were burned to the ground, and asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "Are we the only ones left?" ”

"Division commander, only these brothers can stand up, and the seriously injured brothers all follow the military order and pull the enemy to detonate the 'glorious bullet'." Huo Yan's expression was solemn, and his determined eyes were full of fearlessness!

Xiang Dongqiang sighed silently and asked, "How much ammunition is left?" ”

"Division commander, the ammunition is well preserved in the basement, those Russians have launched a white-knuckle charge every time, we don't have much chance to consume ammunition at all, there is still a lot of black powder, hehe~"

An eerie sneer came from Huo Yan's mouth, and it was clear that he had thought of some crazy plan.

Xiang Dongqiang raised his eyes and looked at Huo Xian for a moment, and said indifferently: "These people are not enough to block the next wave of Russian attacks, you know what to do." ”

"But, Commander, you ......"

Xiang Dongqiang smiled and patted Huo Yan's shoulder: "Don't worry, I'm such a big official, naturally I want to put it in the most favorable place to attract those Russians, this time, we have to pull a hundred times the Russians to accompany the funeral, so we will be lonely, haha......"

"For the kingdom of heaven!"

The 25 people present shouted in unison.

A few hours later, General Menderov was holding a telescope and looking gloomily at the ruins of the town where no one was seen.

It was such a small town, and the Taiping army, which had less than a thousand people, almost wiped out all the shells in the inventory after the retreat of the Russian Imperial Expeditionary Force, killing and wounding thousands of people!

More than a thousand of them were the elite of the Russian noble cavalry dismounted!

Originally, General Menderov did not want to use the precious Russian aristocratic cavalry, but the initial attack of those cannon fodder, even the earthen wall of the town could not break through, and it was defeated as soon as it entered hand-to-hand combat.

But even then, the Russian Imperial Expeditionary Force paid a heavy price.

The large-scale rout of the Ukrainian National Resistance Army in the direction of the city of Kyiv caused a large flight of the Ukrainian militia that existed as servant troops and cannon fodder in the Russian Imperial Expeditionary Force, and even the supreme leader of the Ukrainian National Resistance Army, Ivan Vygovsky, hid and seemed to determine the defeat of the Russian Imperial Expeditionary Force......

As a result, the Russian Imperial Expeditionary Force had to expend its own vital forces that could not be replenished to attack the troops that were strong in the east, and the fight had finally come to an end.

"These Taiping maniacs, they won't surrender when they hit this point, I want to see how many people you still hide!"

After cursing in his heart, General Menderov once again transferred a thousand-strong Russian militia, and when the overall situation was decided, Menderov would not consume the precious noble cavalry.

When the dense Russian militia stepped on the ruins of the town, the muzzles of guns came out of the wreckage of the ruined buildings, and even if there were only 26 people left, the battle would not end!

Thanks to me, I still have a minimum reward of 100 starting coins
