The Castle of Kirsch is just a wooden castle less than a mile in radius, with only two gates, one facing the southeast, facing the Kirsch River, and the other close to the north and facing the Lena River.

It is very conspicuous. This is a castle that controls the main roads of the river estuary.

This castle is only two meters high, with cannons installed on the city walls from north to south. If the local natives want to break through this village, it will take a lot of life to fill it. You can think about it. In the Battle of Jaquessa in later generations, there were so many people and cannons in Kangxi, the "Eternal Emperor" and the "Eternal Emperor" that took several months to take down a small castle, let alone the natives of Siberia.

Bratsk was destroyed by the Mongols twice, but no Cossacks died. The Mongols were probably as many as tens of thousands of corpses thrown by the Mongols near the castle.

"Fire the gun, fire!"

Kolesnikov gave up the idea of ​​going out to fight the enemy cavalry and decided to rely on the castle to fight a war of attrition with them - in such cold weather, they were trembling in the castle, let alone the enemies in the wild?

At this time, as if he realized what the people in the castle were doing, the Sauron cavalry suddenly moved, and one hundred cavalry pointed the muskets in their hands at the top of the city, and the other one hundred cavalry activated their war horses to rush past the south gate quickly!

As they approached the city wall, the cavalry threw a large thunder into the city!

"Bang……"

At this time, the cotscorer gun in Cossack's hand also fired. Unfortunately, several of Uenqi's dragoons were shot down and dropped, but the results of the Sorens were even more amazing.

The dragoons who stood still to shoot at the city were quickly suppressed the Cossacks on the top of the city. About 30% of the thunders that were rushing past did not reach the city wall, and fell outside the city wall, and about 30% crossed the city wall and fell into the city.

Still, 30% fell to the city!

It was this counterattack that almost caused the Cossacks on the southern city wall to lose half of their combat effectiveness, and Kolesnikov was injured and fell to the ground under the bombardment of the thunder!

"boom!!!"

At this time, the two hundred kilograms of short-barrel cannons that had been set up began to bombard the wooden gate of the south gate. The two hundred kilograms of short-barrel can load three kilograms of lead bullets, and the power at close range is no less than that of cannons.

Five short-barrel cannons were fired at the same time!

"Dadadada"

The second round of the dragon cavalry's shooting of the sky-shaking thunder began. At this time, they were more calm. Under the cover of another round of dragon cavalry muskets, almost half of the sky-shaking thunder were thrown to the top of the city this time!

"boom!"

At the same time, a cannon finally sounded on the top of the city, but the gunner of this cannon was probably hit by the thunder. After igniting the fuse, he was knocked down by the thunder and rushed onto the cannon, causing the shell to draw a high arc and land on the surface of the Kelianga River in the distance, which made the nearby Aba Jinde and others frightened.

On the city, Kolesnikov, who was covering his thighs, encountered this tactic for the first time since he came to Siberia. At this time, due to excessive blood loss, his eyes were a little distracted, but his name as "butcher Vasily" was not a big deal.

"You..., prepare horses immediately, dispatch all cavalry to destroy..."

After saying that, he turned his head and found out that the Cossack, who was holding him, nodded. He flattened Vasily and ran down the city quickly.

Soon, about twenty cavalry came out of the north gate, but Wu Enqi personally led a hundred cavalry to be on the battlefield.

Uenchi launched, and he rushed up to the Cossacks with thirty cavalry, but when he was about to meet the enemy cavalry, he turned his head and ran westward. The Cossacks on the opposite side were a little puzzled. Just as he was about to take a "side strike" with great interest, "bang bang bang...", a large gun sound came from the opposite cavalry.

"Murderman's Manguda tactic?"

The Cossack, who led the cavalry out as Vasily ordered, fell off the horse, covering his chest, and muttered to himself.

His meaning is also very simple.

When the Mongols were rampant in Europe, the most famous tactic of dealing with European pike soldiers was to rush around the pike soldiers, galloping while shooting. When the European pike soldiers could no longer bear the chaos in formation, the most elite cavalry rushed in again.

This tactic has been tried and proved to be popular in Europe and has been widely circulated to this day.

However, it is unheard of to use this tactic on a musket.

When the remaining seventy dragon cavalrymen drew their sabers and rushed towards the few dull Cossacks, the overall situation was settled.

In this way, half of the fifty Cossacks left in the city were consumed at the top of the city, and half were foolishly annihilated outside the city.

Aba Jinde in the distance was even more stunned when he saw it.

That's it?

As expected, after five rounds of bombardment of a 200-pound short-barrel cannon at close range, the tall fir-made gate collapsed with a "bang".

Another thunderous thunder was thrown into the door opening. After the smoke of gunpowder disappeared, another hundred cavalry rushed in.

...

On the west bank of Lake Baikal, about 150 miles from the lake, there is a pasture used by the Kebone people before - the Oroi Basin. After thousands of years, this pasture has degenerated significantly, far less than that near the Angara River and its main tributaries. In other words, when there were no Cossacks before, several small tribes and the Ewenk people nomad here.

The basin is quite large, and if all of them are added up, they are thousands of square kilometers.

Nowadays, people and animals are prosperous, no, no, no, this is not true. It is far from the point of prosperity. The correct solution is to crowd a large number of people and animals in this basin.

In the center of the Oroi Basin, near a small birch forest, there is an oversized tent that was pulled from the mouth of the Osa River along the ice of the Angara River with sixteen cattle.

Fifty-year-old Chekde sat cross-legged in the tent with a sad face. He was dressed very neatly, and the marten's fur hat was also smooth.

The pot of mutton in front of him was still steaming, and there was a salt bowl and a wine pot next to the mutton. The still fat and strong Chikde was enjoying his lunch.

Halfway through lunch, he suddenly put down the knife in his hand.

He served him to have dinner, and his second concubine, the sister of the Tulun tribe, looked at him in surprise.

His husband, unless the sky falls, is indispensable for delicious food and drink every day, except once.

This is what Chekde thinks about now!

It was a cold morning. The Chekde tribe, originally located at the mouth of the Osa River, was suddenly attacked by the butcher Vasily. In the end, Chekde's thirteen-year-old daughter was also snatched away by Vasily.

(Real history, from the records of Cossacks)

Finally, Chekde found his daughter in the grass on the nearby hills, naked and covered in scars.

After that, Chekde wanted to organize a force to fight Vasily, but unfortunately Vasily was always a dragon who was in a desperate situation. He never fought head-on with him, but just kept attacking the solitary herders of his Angara tribe and the herders on the edge of the territory. Sometimes he also launched another attack while he was sleeping near his big tent.

Such a battle lasted for about a year. In a year, the Angara tribe of Tachekide lost at least one thousand herders. It was originally lost nearly a thousand households under the attack of the Cossacks of Bratsk. In this way, the Angara tribe, which originally had 5,000 herders, was the most powerful in the middle and upper reaches of the Angara River, and was also publicly recommended by the Mongolian tribes of the middle and upper reaches of the middle and upper reaches of the Angara tribe, now only about three thousand households are left.

Three Thousand Houses are still a large tribe, but Chekde does not think so.

When will such a day be a head?

He interrupted lunch in a rare manner, stood up from the ground, and then came outside regardless of the cold temperature outside the tent.

Outside the big tent, the extreme cold of several dozen degrees below zero made him wake up from his slightly drunkenness.

But at the same time, several riders flew from a distance.

Chekde's pupils contracted instantly.

That hateful Cossack is coming again?

In this extremely cold weather, the Mongols dare not go out to fight, but the Cossacks can.

When he came to approach Cecide's tent, the horse's knight jumped off the horse, then dismounted and trotted to Cecide.

Chekde's eyes gradually softened, and the knight's face was not panicked, and he was still a little happy.

"Khan, Khan, someone is coming from the other side"

Chekde's eyes lit up. Now the Buryat Mongols on the west bank of the Great Lake have only one meaning when talking about the word "opposite" - the east bank of the Great Lake.

...

Compared with some other military generals of the Great Xia Empire, Kakduli was still an old-school officer, which naturally had something to do with him in the Qing Dynasty's officialdom for a long time. Although he was working hard to change, he was not as comfortable as those of Zhuketu and Alina who grew up with Nikan since childhood.

Once, Nikan saw that he was too reserved, so he warned him: "Don't deliberately change anything, maintain military discipline, and strictly abide by the imperial laws. You can do whatever you should do in private."

Kakduli remembered this sentence, but in this way, he was not very happy among the officers of the Empire, so he focused all his energy on training.

He was a Jurchen in the East China Sea. He was able to achieve the position of deputy governor at a young age. In addition to his family, who was a little famous hereditary Harad in the second Songhua River Basin, his own bravery should naturally not be underestimated.

After moving from infantry to cavalry, he finally let go.

After moving from a general who led the Manchu Bayala to the Daxia Empire, his views on the cavalry on both sides, especially the elite cavalry, are now quite representative in the empire.

"Compared with the Flying Dragon Rider and Baya La, one-on-one, it is actually almost the same. I'm afraid Baya La will be slightly better."

"The flying dragon cavalry is in equipment, training, tactics, especially training and tactics. The daily training of the Qing Dynasty Baya La focuses on strength and martial arts, but the flying dragon cavalry focuses on simplicity. Use, such as stabbing a gun, collecting a gun, and blocking training at no less than a few hundred times a day, which is unimaginable in the Qing Dynasty Baya La."

"There is also neat and uniform, with extremely standardized tactical actions. Once you face the enemy, two or three people often cooperate to fight, which is very different from Bayala's fight based on personal bravery."

"The flying dragon cavalry is a powerful weapon to break the enemy, cut the enemy, sweep the enemy, and destroy the enemy's formation. It is more beneficial to embrace it into a group. It is also to create opportunities for the subsequent tiger cavalry to further clean the battlefield. Therefore, unity is undoubtedly more important than personal bravery."

...

When Kakduli saw the fat and strong Mongolian man Chekde, his usual reserve came again. He waited for Chekde to walk in front of him about five feet before jumping off the horse.

However, in Chekde's view, this is the "arrogance" that only a normal military general has. Like Alina, Zhuketu, who likes to get along with ordinary people, may not be a little uncomfortable. He put his right hand on his chest and lowered his head slightly.
