Steel Dynasty - Chapter 936

[Chapter 931 Daur People]

The smell of gunpowder smoke filled the battlefield, and the layer of white covering the ground of Morgan City was now dyed red by the blood donations of Cossacks and Slavs.

Gao Yingfeng kicked Vasily who was unconscious on the ground and said, “Commander, why are we still keeping them? Just kill them.”

“Kill them, who will lead the Russians in Nerchinsk and Yaksa? “

Let go of the horrific legends about us and remember that the purpose of war is to gain strategic benefits, not to kill people. If the Russians can be driven out of Siberia without any bloodshed, why not do it? “

In Zhu Sansi’s eyes? Shining with wisdom, his years of study at the Army Academy made him a general with strategic vision.

Gao Yingfeng scratched his head. He was a fierce general, but not good at calculations. He sighed and said, “Isn’t this too boring? Moreover, this battle shows that these Russians have hard bones. They are not like those from Goryeo.” Soft-footed shrimp, from my point of view, even if they are released, the Russians in Nerchinsk and Yaksa will probably not retreat.”

Zhu Sansi frowned and looked at the Russians lying in a pool of blood. It is indeed not possible for ordinary stragglers to hold on until now with 800 people.

In addition to undergoing rigorous training, soldiers’ courage is also an element.

However, if they encountered the former Great Chongqing Army, they might actually be able to defend it, but they met the current Great Chongqing Army.

He admitted that the advanced weapons of Chongqing played a certain role in this battle, but the bravery shown by the soldiers was not inferior to the Russians at all.

“I didn’t intend to let them go back so easily. Capture all the living ones. After spending so much ammunition, I should exchange them for something to compensate.”

Gao Yingfeng was happy now, and he immediately asked his men to capture all the Russians. Imprisoned.

Looking at Gao Yingfeng who was busy, Zhu Sansi showed a smile, and then he took out the map of this area from his arms and studied it.

The problem he faced this time on his way north was not just the slightest. The train from Da Yu now only reached Jianzhou City, and all their logistical conveniences ended in Jianzhou.

The supplies needed to go north now returned to the original people picking horse-drawn horses, which made their logistics line vulnerable.

In addition, cold weather is also their enemy, and he does not want his soldiers to die from the cold.

“To reach Yaksa, you need to continue walking for more than a thousand miles northwest, and Nerchinsk is more than a thousand miles west of Yaksa. “

Recognition of maps has always been a necessary course in the Army Academy, just like The navy needed to identify the chart, and after measuring it with his portable tools, he roughly knew the actual distance.

“This distance is not close.” The brigade commander of the Second Brigade said: “Kuantong is not yet stable. If the logistics are cut off, the consequences are unimaginable. At present, we should establish strongholds along the way and gradually advance northward.”

Zhu Sansi fell into confusion .

After pondering, the rations they brought with them were not enough to support them to reach the nearest Yaksa, but the advancement of each stronghold northward was too slow.

While he was meditating, there was suddenly a noise from soldiers, and then a group of soldiers chased towards the woods outside Morgan City.

Then a burst of gunfire rang out, and the soldiers led two men wearing furs and felt hats to Zhu Sansi.

“Daur people!” Seeing the costumes of these two people, an idea flashed in Zhu Sansi’s mind, and he suddenly remembered what he had read in the book.

This is a tribe that lives near the Heijiang River Basin and makes a living by hunting. It is said that they are the descendants of the Xianbei people. During the years when the Golden Horde ruled Guandong, they have been constantly attacking the Daur people, which made the Daur people continue to move north. migration.

“What Daur people?”

With such a big movement, Gao Yingfeng ran over without caring about the Russian prisoners. Looking at the two people kneeling on the ground, he asked strangely.

Zhu Sansi ignored Gao Yingfeng, but a smile appeared on his face. Perhaps he had found a way to supply supplies in such a vast area.

Thinking of this, he said to Gao Yingfeng: “Go back to Jianzhou City immediately and ask them to find someone who understands the Daur language. There must be slaves who lived here before.”

“Yes.” Gao Yingfeng stood up. Just go find the Chasseurs.

“No need, we understand the language of Great Chongqing.” One of the two, an older Daur man, suddenly spoke. He glanced at the Russian corpses on the ground and continued: “These man-eating demons died really well.”

Zhu Sansi was also a shrewd man. From the middle-aged Daur man’s voice, he could hear the deep-seated hatred for the Russians. Seizing this, he had an idea.

Asking the soldiers to let go of the two men, he said: “Our trip is just to deal with the Russians. Now it seems that you have been attacked by these gangsters.”

“More than an attack?” The middle-aged Daur man said: “Now every Everyone in Daur knows that they are man-eating demons. These beasts will eat whatever they encounter along the way, and we will suffer misfortune. “

This is the second time Zhu Sansi heard this person say the word man-eating demon. He realized at this time that the Russians must have committed cruel crimes against the Daur people. He said, “They ate your people?”

The middle-aged man nodded with red eyes, “That’s why I brought my son here to take revenge.” “

Zhu Sansi was overjoyed. He had to say that this was a perfect opportunity. The Daur people never chose to surrender whether they were ruled by the barbarians or the Chongqing Kingdom.

Now they may be able to use this opportunity to get the Daur people to join the Chongqing Kingdom, even though the population of this tribe is less than 20,000.

This way, they were able to establish contact with the Daur people living in the land and easily obtain supplies along the way.

“Now it seems that we have a common enemy.” Zhu Sansi said to the two of them: “As far as we know, there are a large number of Russians living in Nerchinsk and Yaksa. If they are not driven away, your tribe will Lost this hunting land forever.”

Zhu Sansi’s words obviously touched the hearts of the two of them, and they both looked at Zhu Sansi at the same time.

If it hadn’t been for the arrival of the Russians, the vast snowfields from Jianzhou would have been their hunting grounds. But now everything has changed. The Russians have come, not only killing their people, but also taking away the hunting areas they depended on for survival. Crazy hunting of prey for fur.

Because of this, they had several conflicts with the Russians, but they were ultimately defeated by the Russians’ powerful firearms.

“Are you really willing to drive away the Russians with us?” the middle-aged Daur man said excitedly.

Zhu Sansi nodded. In fact, there were many tribes living in the Siberian snowfields, but these tribes were too small, and the battles with the Russians often remained on the scale of street fights.

So with the advantage of firearms, they couldn’t win at all.

“Of course I do. This is exactly the purpose of our coming here.” Zhu Sansi showed his kindness.
