A group of hundreds of soldiers, dressed in Tatar leather robes, led by several cavalrymen with military flags on their backs, marched forward loosely.

When a typical Cossack settlement appeared in the team's field of vision, the crowd erupted in cheers.

"Allah is above, we have finally come across a place where there are people! Warriors of the Holy Cult, delicious food young ladies are right in front of us, it is a reward given to us by the gods, let us take our swords and get them! ”

Under the excited howl of the leading officer, a small detachment of hundreds of Crimean slave soldiers and Crimean standard-bearers mixed sounded a wild strange scream, although they were loyal to Hong Tiancheng, but in their bones they still believed in the Crescent Religion (in order to avoid harmonious use of this religious name, the real religious name is clear to everyone, after all, that crazy religion even our motherland has to retreat...... The sense of loyalty implanted in the system of total war only convinced these soldiers that Hong Tiancheng, the king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, was the messenger and prophet sent by Allah to lead them.

Because of this, the Crescentist armies produced by the Total War system tend to be very cheap to maintain, in contrast to their weak discipline and combat effectiveness, compared to the European professional mercenaries who are more military-literate but require high maintenance costs, the Crescent armies are obviously good candidates for cannon fodder.

Of course, not all Crescent armies are scum, for example, the Ottoman Sultan's own soldiers were very strong.

Hundreds of Crimean slave soldiers, like red-eyed Russian wolves, whistling with small wooden shields and scimitars and bows and arrows on their backs, rushed to the Cossack settlement with a peaceful appearance.

Among them, the Crimean standard-bearers, who had horses, had no intention of waiting for the infantry, and they rushed to the target place first by virtue of the speed advantage of their horses.

Hong Tian became an increase in the combat effectiveness of the Crimean cannon fodder army, and strengthened mutual supervision, deliberately mixing the Crimean standard-bearers and Crimean slave soldiers who jointly carried out combat missions in a ratio of 1 to 3.

In this way, the Crimean standard-bearers can provide certain battlefield information to the Crimean slave soldiers on foot and with poor military literacy during the battle march, so as not to be ambushed too badly......

The idea is very good, but the top brass of the Taiping Army obviously overestimated the ideology of the Crimean cannon fodder, and it is better to expect this group of Crimean soldiers to remain sane in the face of the 'temptation of money', than to expect a pervert to insist on not 'looking up and saluting' in front of a stripped beauty.

Even though the Crimean standard-bearers were 'noble' regular troops, the essence of the Crimean Khanate had already doomed their combat philosophy, and most of the Crimean Khanate's combat methods remained in the ancient Mongol Empire, advocating the spirit of bravery and ignoring military discipline.

This is not to say that the military discipline of the Mongol army is bad, in the era of the rise of Mongolia, the military discipline of the core army of Mongolia is definitely the best in the world, but if it is compared with the modern army, it is the gap brought by the times!

This is just like the fact that in ancient times, no matter how elite the troops could fight, military discipline alone was not as strict as that of the regular army of an ordinary weak country in the 21 st century, which is the progress of military thinking and the accumulation of human society under the precipitation of time.

Therefore, even though the Crimean Khanate inherited the bravery and essence of the Mongol Empire, in this era of the gradual rise of the modern military system, it began to show its decline, and finally fell from a regional power to a carved object.

Since the main force of the Crimean slave soldiers needed to gather a group of Crimean standard-bearers as a cavalry team for frontal combat, the number of Crimean standard-bearers assigned to this hundred-numbered detachment was not large, only less than ten cavalry.

When these Crimean standard-bearers rushed towards the seemingly peaceful settlement of the Cossacks with their sabers in their eyes full of excitement, dozens of arquebus muzzles suddenly protruded from the houses in the settlement!

After seeing the muzzle of the gun, the Crimean flag bearer, who ran to the front to grab a 'first' move and taste a 'fresh', hurriedly tightened the reins of his horse and tried to stop, and at the same time shouted to the Crimean slave soldiers galloping behind him: "There is an ambush here!! ”

Bang bang bang......

A puff of white smoke brought to an abrupt halt the excitement on the faces of the Crimean slave soldiers, and the galloping procession gradually came to a halt in a panic.

And the Crimean flag-bearers who sent the warning signals, along with their mounts, became a corpse that could not be seen.

"Damn! It's Cossack warriors, everyone takes out their weapons and prepares for battle! ”

When the Crimean slave soldiers saw the dead Crimean standard-bearers and dozens of Cossack warriors in Cossack caps who were no longer hiding in the settlements, they did not flinch, but shouted and drew their bows and arrows from behind their backs, hugged each other and continued to rush forward.

Their own task was to clear the area of Cossack settlements.

Because of the lack of strength of the Cossack rebels entrenched in the city of Chernihiv, the Cossack leader Ivan Hilko never fought against the four-kilogram Lymedium standard-bearers and Crimean slave soldiers sent by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, but relied on the prestige of the Cossacks among the local population to constantly harass the troops of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

With the help of the local people who were dissatisfied with the rule of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Cossack soldiers seriously threatened the food routes of the four-kilogram Lymedium cannon fodder regiment, which was not a small amount of food consumed by 4,000 people every day.

So, there was this scene before, since the logistics and grain routes were threatened, the Crimean corps of the Taiping Army simply came to take it themselves!

In this way, the four-kilogram Ryno fodder regiment swept all the way in the direction of Chernihiv City, and the main force stared at the main force of the Cossack rebels in the direction of Chernihiv City, and then divided half of its troops into small detachments of more than 100 people, and scattered in all directions in the area where the main force passed, and 'beat the grass valley' everywhere.

The soldiers of the Crimean Cannon Fodder Regiment went up to the commanding generals and down to the small soldiers, hating the white people who helped the Cossack soldiers to attack their food routes, and the soldiers of the Crimean Cannon Fodder Regiment who had no limit of discipline slaughtered the village without sparing, and after invading the area controlled by the Cossack rebels, they did not leave chickens and dogs, not even young and strong slaves were plundered, and the young women were also stabbed to death with a knife, which was simply worse than a beast!

Obviously, this kind of order was contrary to the original intention of Hong Tiancheng, who was mainly interested in profit, but unfortunately, the local farmers and Cossacks put all this account on the heads of the Taiping army......
