Chapter 122: Land, Population, Firearms

Hearing this, One-Eye couldn't help but look in the direction pointed by the pastoral deputy, and sure enough, a cavalry set off from the small tribal group garrison they had just swept by, and rushed towards the area where the enemy cavalry of Outer Mongolia was located.

This scene made him raise his eyebrows slightly.

"If I'm not mistaken, that Chief Zhao is stationed near Pingqiantun, right? It's just Pingqiantun, right? ”

One-Eye asked, pointing to the tent not far away.

"Yes.... Yes, Patriarch, it was Pingqiantun, but when I looked by just now, it seemed that the people inside had long since withdrawn.

It's just that I don't know who is leading this cavalry, isn't it a fool? The pastor shook his head, very incomprehensible.

One-eyed groaned slightly, glanced at Deputy Mu and sneered, "You also said that they had already withdrawn."

Since you have known for a long time that the Outer Mongolians will go south, do you think this group of people is crazy? ”

"Uh.... But.... Isn't this looking for death? The pastor was unimpressed.

"Humph! Do you remember the first time we dealt with that Chief Zhao? What do you think of those dozens of people at that time? One-eyed said in a deep voice.

"This ..... Very strong! ”

Although he was reluctant to admit it, the pastor nodded anyway.

At that time, if it wasn't for the numerical advantage, they would definitely be defeated.

"Let's go!"

"Pastor, are we going back? Now I can't go back and the brothers can't walk, this..."

"Go there!"

I saw that One-Eye pointed to Pingqiantun not far away, and for a moment the pastor deputy was a little dumbfounded.

"Uh.... Pastor, isn't it too unsafe to be a few miles away from the Outer Mongolians? The pastor was stunned.

"Nope! It was too cold outside for the brothers to camp in the wilderness.

It's empty, so let's go over and give the brothers something to eat and rest for the horses.

As for the Outer Mongolians....."

One-eyed paused, as if organizing the wording, and thought for a moment before continuing, "I have a feeling they might be in trouble. ”

"Alright, anyway, let's go over there for a rest!"

One-eyed shook his head, running for a day and a night, not to mention that the brothers couldn't even hold on to him.

In this extremely exhausting situation, if there is no shelter from the wind, I am afraid that after this evening, the brothers will freeze to death.

At the same time, he also had another guess, he always felt that there was Zhao Ming in the cavalry just now!

That crazy and not afraid of death of the new chief!

"Brother Balinck, we're here to play! These people are too weak. Trade makes them no longer steppe people!

I don't know what kind of credit we can get this time? Can we all raise the knighthood? ”

"Huh! I don't know, but I'm sure we'll get a lot of cattle and sheep this time.

I heard that these two departments still have a large number of weapons hidden, which is also urgently needed by our department! ”

Two second lieutenants from the Pakistani neighboring department, who were on guard on the perimeter, were chatting with great interest.

Although there is still plenty of cattle and sheep in Outer Mongolia, they are large tribes, and they are still very short of small tribes at the bottom.

Then there are the arms, the population and the land.

Although the tradition of archery is still preserved in Outer Mongolia, they also realized that with the regular assistance of northern Russia, their descendants have become less and less able to use the bow as a traditional weapon.

Therefore, now they have an army of Mongolians, firearms, bows and arrows.

Originally, this proportion would only be higher, but at present, there are not enough firearms, and it cannot support the entire army.

The second is the population, the population is now in urgent need of Mongolia, especially the strong young man!

There are even female soldiers in their current army, and there are nearly 10,000 female soldiers in the 30,000 army that went south this time.

This would be unthinkable elsewhere.

It stands to reason that if there are so many women, the reproduction will be very fast, and the total population will grow explosively.

However, the fact is the opposite, and now the total population of Mongolia is only 600,000.

This time, the 30,000 troops went south, which is already a big deal for Outer Mongolia, and even in order to avoid another sharp decrease in men, only female soldiers can occupy a larger proportion.

The reason why the population can't grow is because of the land.

It seems that the land is vast and sparsely populated, and each person and household can share a large amount of land, but in fact, the natural conditions are extremely harsh, and the desert Gobi occupies a large proportion.

And many people still live a nomadic life, and the population is not enough to gather and reproduce, so it is natural that reproduction will be slow.

There is also a more serious alcoholism in Mongolians, both men and women are extremely fond of alcoholism, and drinking a small amount of alcohol can help interpersonal communication and transition drinking....

"I heard that the situation in Chahar is very unstable at the moment, and this powerful ancient country is now at the end of the war.

Listen to the above meaning, if we can, we can even live here! Enjoy the fertile land here! ”

The warrior of the Ba'a neighboring tribe named Ketuo suddenly came mysteriously and mysteriously.

Hearing this, Balink's eyes lit up.

He really saw the pasture here, it was not too good, and if they lived here for a long time, maybe they would not have to live that nomadic life.

However, at this moment, one of his subordinates suddenly exclaimed.

"Enemy! There are enemies! ”

Hearing this, the hundreds of brothers on the periphery looked into the distance.

In the darkness of the night, hundreds of figures appeared faintly on the thin snow, and now it was almost midnight, and the fog was even bigger.

In addition, the fire is blazing here, and the opposite side is pitch black, which greatly limits the view of the brightly lit side.

When they saw each other, they were less than two hundred meters apart.

"Kill them!"

"Lord Sarei! Shall we report back to the flag owner? ”

At this time, Ketuo had already hurried to the commander of the department.

Zuo Ling is also the saying of the previous dynasty, and now the restructuring has been called the battalion commander, but some old people on the Outer Mongolian side prefer to call the commander the title of the previous dynasty to highlight their qualifications.

Hearing this, Li He just shook his head indifferently, "No need, it's just two or three hundred herdsmen, we are professional soldiers and warriors of the empire, don't trouble the banner owner for this kind of trivial matter." ”

(Many Mongolians in Outer Mongolia and Inner Mongolia have the habit of using Chinese surnames, as explained above.) )

"Yes!"

When everyone heard this, they also thought it was quite reasonable, just two or three hundred people were not as simple as killing chickens and slaughtering sheep?

With the gesture of Lord Saling, four or five hundred people began to gather.

Everyone was holding their heads high, their morale was full, their eyes shining under their sheepskin felt hats, and their faces were full of excitement.

"Kill!"

With a low shout, hundreds of long howls as if they had received the wolf king launched a charge towards their prey.

Looking at the Outer Mongolian enemy cavalry who were also charging towards this side, Zhao Ming's expression was motionless, and the expressions of the brothers under the cotton armor behind him were also unusually firm.

When they learned that they were going to Beishan to rush to the grassland, they had already sold their lives to Zhao Ming, just hoping to be able to ride a horse and gallop on the battlefield.

In fact, this is a disease, and Zhao Ming can be sure that once the group of brothers under his command really return to normal life, they will definitely be anxious and angry, and even do some radical things.
