Steel Dynasty - Chapter 986
[Chapter 979 Chinese style show of power]
On the city wall, Zhu Sansi breathed a sigh of relief. Outside the city, neither Tsarist Russia nor the Golden Horde showed any signs of attacking again. It seemed that the two targeted shots just now had an effect.
The reason why he did this was to use the only ammunition he had to create the illusion that they still had ammunition, and secondly to create conflicts between them.
After all, Dayu did not attack the Tsarist Russians, but only the Golden Horde. Everyone would murmur in their hearts. Taking advantage of these two points, he just wanted to delay the two attacks.
And just as he thought, this move seemed to have a good effect now, and the troops outside the city were silent.
“Master, they were really frightened.” Gao Yingfeng said in surprise.
“I hope so. Now we can only try to delay as much time as possible to wait for support, otherwise Yaksa City will be captured sooner or later.” Zhu Sansi sighed.
Gao Yingfeng’s face became solemn. One of the problems they faced was that they were too far away from Jianzhou, but Tsarist Russia had been operating in Siberia for many years and had complete construction in all aspects.
In his opinion, one way to protect Yaksa and the surrounding land is to build roads and move the population to guard the border.
Otherwise, it will be impossible to completely control this place just by relying on the army’s short-term stationing and defense.
“The ammunition for the breakout has almost been used up now. The only hope for the soldiers to survive is to hold on. Commander, we are not cowards. If we die, we will die together.” Gao Yingfeng said with a strong voice.
Under such a situation, Zhu Sansi did not want to blame Gao Yingfeng too much. He patted Gao Yingfeng’s shoulder heavily and looked out of the city with a deep look.
However, in the next month, both the Golden Horde and Tsarist Russian soldiers seemed to be frightened by Zhu Sansi’s trap.
With a small amount of ammunition reserved, they would fire a few shots to scare the Golden Horde every time they attacked, and the Golden Horde soldiers would run back in fear every time.
Until the early morning of March 17, Zhu Sansi was suddenly awakened by cheers on the city wall. Hearing the sound, he and Gao Yingfeng immediately climbed onto the city wall.
To the south of Yaksa City, a cavalryman wearing a dark green military uniform appeared on the other side of the river.
“Division commander, it’s our cavalry! It’s our cavalry!” Gao Yingfeng shouted excitedly.
The soldiers on the city wall cheered loudly. After holding on for four full months, they finally waited for support to arrive.
Zhu Sansi’s eyes were slightly hot. If this batch of support didn’t come again, they might really be unable to hold on. They were able to support themselves until now only by their will.
Compared to Zhu Sansi’s excitement, Gubat and Karloff looked extremely embarrassed. This army suddenly appeared here, and they had not received any news before.
There is only one explanation for this, and that is that the stronghold they occupied was completely destroyed by this cavalry, and all the personnel in the stronghold died.
“I think it’s best to retreat now.” Gubat squinted at the cavalry that suddenly appeared. He was very familiar with this cavalry because they often fought on the grassland.
And he was also familiar with the leader of this cavalry, Zhang Qinian, the devil who killed his two nephews.
Karloff punched the tree next to him, and the snow fell, and he said, “Retreat! This is absolutely impossible, Gubat, if we can’t take the city of Yaksa this time, neither you nor I can explain it in front of the Queen, don’t forget You are also a Tsarist Russian. You have been passively aggressive and retaining your strength for this month. Do
you really think I can’t see it?” Gubat’s face suddenly turned red and he said angrily, “Really? Why did the army of Dayu only attack my soldiers but not yours? Is
this a coincidence? ” “It is indeed a coincidence. We were all fooled. Now that their reinforcements have arrived, it is a fact. They took advantage of you, you idiot ?”
“Karloff couldn’t bear it anymore. He finally understood why the Golden Horde was so completely defeated by the Great Chongqing. This was simply unbelievable to the grassland tribes.
Cubat glanced at the cavalry on the other side, and then at the cheering city of Yaksa, and gradually came to his senses, it seemed that they had really fallen into the trap, otherwise why would these soldiers be so happy?
A feeling of humiliation surged into his heart. Gubat glanced at the more than 10,000 cavalry and the remaining 4,000 slave soldiers behind him and said, “Zhang Qinian, our accounts will be settled here today.”
After that, he ordered The man blew the horn of the cavalry charge.
On the other side, Zhang Qinian also saw Gubat, put down his telescope, and said, “Don’t be obsessed with fighting. Enter the city immediately. We have traveled a long distance and the soldiers are tired. We are no match for them. The supplies we carry are the key to defeating them.”
“Yes, General. “
“After receiving the order, the cavalry generals immediately ordered the soldiers responsible for transportation to whip the horses and pull the sleds towards the city.
At the same time, three thousand cavalry broke away from their ranks and faced the barbarian cavalry.
“Open the city gate quickly!” Zhu Sansi immediately ordered on the city wall. At the same time, he glanced worriedly at the cavalry rushing over. As a general, he naturally knew that the current cavalry was in poor condition, and in order to resist the cold, they did not wear armor. , only wearing military uniform.
Upon hearing this, Gao Yingfeng quickly opened the city gate with his soldiers, and the cavalry pulling sleds quickly entered the city.
When they arrived in the city, the leading cavalry shouted to Gao Yingfeng: “These boxes are full of Han-style rifles and bullets. Equip them quickly!”
“Han-style rifles!” Gao Yingfeng was startled for a moment, and then showed an ecstatic look. The soldier next to him said: “What are you still doing? Why haven’t you changed your gun?”
As he said this, he immediately sent someone to notify Zhu Sansi.
After a while, Zhu Sansi came down from the city wall. After seeing clearly what was in the box, he was greatly surprised and ordered his soldiers to change their clothes quickly.
Before going to Yaksa, Zhu Sansi belonged to the Forbidden Army and was no stranger to Han-style rifles. In order to be equipped with Han-style rifles first, they explained it to the soldiers in the military camp when Han-style rifles were available. It can be said that he As long as the soldiers picked up the Han-style rifle, they could use it immediately.
“Hurry up!”
Boxes of Chinese-style rifles and bullets arrived. Zhu Sansi and Gao Yingfeng were responsible for distributing the weapons. The soldiers who received the weapons did not return to the city, but chose to boldly rush out of the city gate.
They assembled into a cavalry nemesis phalanx outside the city and boldly charged forward.
Six thousand soldiers, six thousand guns, and soon, soldiers with brand-new weapons launched a counterattack.
“Bang, bang, bang…”
The firing pin hit the primer, and after the metal bullet made an explosive sound, the metal bullet flew towards the barbarian cavalry at high speed. At the same time, the soldier pulled the bolt, the cartridge case fell away, and the soldiers loaded another bullet and fired.
With every shot, the soldier’s body would move slightly with the recoil of the firearm. Under the precise and powerful shooting, the barbarian cavalry fighting Zhang Qinian fell down like ears of wheat blown by the wind.
