Walking Too Much at Night
Chapter 843:Walking Too Much at Night
There is an old saying that it is called walking too much at night and eventually encountering ghosts.
No one could have imagined that the Cossacks would betray the revolution and turn to Tsarist Russia, the native Turkish-speaking nomadic cavalry, who had served to the Poles.
Strictly speaking, the concept of Cossacks is equivalent to a "ethnic group" of various people rather than an independent national concept.
Just as the Chinese nation in the future had fifty-six ethnic groups, the Cossacks were mainly Slavs, as well as a small number of Tatars, Caucasians, Georgians, Kalmyks, and Turks.
The group first appeared when some Slavs fled the Mongol Empire to escape the rule of the Chincha khanate in the Mongol Empire and into southern Russia, including the Don, the lower Dnieper and the Volga basin.
This was added, along with some Russian and Ukrainian peasants who did not want to become serfs, moved to southern Russia after the overthrow of the Chincha Khanate.These people are called "Cossacks", the "free people" in their native language, the Turkic language.
In a nutshell, it is that Daming died in the Mongolian Yuan, resulting in the loss of the highest deterrent to the huge Mongolian Empire, and other khanates that were split by the Mongol Empire also did their own thing, and finally slowly finished playing.
In the year of the adult, the Akuma Khan, who had already lost his family, failed to succeed, and became a typical example of pretending not to be blinded by grass, and by the time of the reign of Hongji, the Chincha Khanate, that is, the Golden Horde, was thoroughly sung cold.
Then, the Cossacks officially appeared on the historical stage - the Mongolian Empire, which could completely beat them to dead dogs, declared bankruptcy, and the light cavalry became a tiger-free in the mountains, and the Cossacks called the king.
If the man of Khmelnytsky had not suddenly attacked the Poles, and had not later signed the Berayaslav Agreement with Tsarist Russia, the Cossacks would not have appeared on the battlefields of Eastern Europe, nor would they have met the Min slave forces.
What is even more fucked is that Daming's slave team found at the beginning that it was a group of herders, although the long strange shape is very scary, but the herdsmen are only herders after all, and then Daming's slave team chose the simplest and most practical frontal tactics.
Then he bumped into the Cossacks and was taught to be human.
Although the horses with Meng Xianglin did not lose much, even the broken bones could not be called, at most it was just a little bit of fur, but this thing is so calculated?
Since the day the slave labor team was born, no one has ever suffered such a big loss!
Meng Xianglin, who felt that he had been punched in the face, also became serious, and then called out a group of horse boys and said directly: "Today's thing blames me, did not find out the details of this group of barbarians, so that the brothers suffered a big loss."
Without saying, the compensation for the compensation, the pension of the pension, the silver appreciation of all the staff plus 10%, in any case, will not lose the brothers."
After self-examination and made a full gesture, Meng Xianglin continued: "All the brothers said, what do you think of this cavalry?"
"This group of cavalrymen is a little mean, they are not like the former slaves of the cavalry are close to the horsemen and then fight, nor like my great cavalry, it is more like the cavalry before the Meng Yuan."
I have observed their speed, and the heavy rides we have brought from the ministry of Thibers cannot catch them at all, and the time left for the firearms force is far from sufficient.
There is little hope that the cavalry will be used to make a light horse, and it is not much hope to be used against them by firearms or heavy cavalry.”
Meng Xianglin said, “To ride lightly, the casualties inside can be too big?”
He shook his head, “Actually, I don’t see how many casualties there will be.”
As long as we bring the heavy riding to throw down the burden, put on light armor and sabre, for this group of barbaric cavalry is basically still cheap, at least their horse's knife is not sharp enough.
If you can, it is better to ask Amin for help, let him provide us with some archers, and wait for those barbarians to charge, first cover them with arrows and rain, and then try to kill them much easier."
Meng Xianglin directly refused to complete the proposal: "Don't think about it!Amin commanded that it was easy to mobilize the archers there, but such a thing as a blow would be to give up these barbarians to the blue flag.
Just the blue flag of those killed, once the red eyes, these brutes can still be left a few?Until then, we can't catch the labor, that's the real loss!"
There are many things that can be changed in more than 20 years, and the blue flag and blue flag brought to Daming by Amin and Yan Guulti are still in preparation, but they are no longer the blue and blue flags in the true sense.
The true sense of the blue set blue two flags, is entirely composed of the state-building women, in the military style is also more inclined to riding the horse of heavy infantry.
Now the blue set blue blue flag, basically only a name, the soldiers inside do not say that all the Han people are actually similar, and the combat style is almost the same as the other cavalry forces of Daming.
First, the gunfire washes the ground, and then the cavalry clears, the approximate combat process is this bird-like, and the concept of a simple human enemy is more and more without a market, but more suddenly the concept of elite team combat.
Counting on such a blue flag and blue flag to help them catch the barbarians as laborers, Meng Xianglin felt that he would believe it unless his brain let the horse kick!
After a moment of silence, Yan Li said: "If you do not find Amin to command the other side, simply by our action, then there is only a road to light riding and light riding?"
Meng Xianglin said, “That’s a road!Anyway, you just said that their sabre is not good, even light armor can not break, then what is worried about?"
After a half-sin, Meng Xianglin continued: "They are basically a line of eight people and eight horses, and they will not pay attention to any formation after rushing up, if they are not coming and going like the wind, in fact, even the construction of slaves can not be compared."
The most disadvantage we are now is that the number of people is too small to cover them directly with arrow rain, otherwise, it is estimated that it is a matter of several rounds of arrow rain.
But it doesn't matter, Xia Hou once taught us to fly kites, we will fly their kites tomorrow!"
...
The head of this Cossack cavalry, Meriekhov Prokofi, had a feeling of a day dog.
In previous years, Provefi took this Cossack cavalry from the Don River at the border of Europe and Asia, fought against Tsarist Russia, fought against the Ottoman Turks, and later fought with the Poles, and his life was either in war or on his way to war.
But with a conscience, Prokofe could swear that he had never seen such a difficult little cavalry in front of him.
If it must be said that there is no army similar to this small cavalry, it is probably only the fist of God in the legend, and the cavalry of the Golden Horde that later swept through Europe.
Hard is the first label on them, and fearless death is the second label on them.
When they first came into contact, it was probably because they were not familiar with the Cossacks or because they were too arrogant, and their Cossack cavalry did cause them some casualties, but only a little.
What is even more irritating is the endless tactical response of the other party, which simply pays the price of more than a hundred people and makes himself lose more than 300 cavalry on his side!
When they hit later, those people have lost their minds, and many people have taken the method of wounding for life or even life!
In this way, if only the few hundred cavalry were left, it would be better to say that if they had thousands or even tens of thousands of reinforcements behind them, it would probably go in the other direction.
Will there be a place for the Cossack cavalry in the tsarist Russia?
Especially their equipment, but also let Proko Fei's eyes reddened.
The knife in the hand of the Cossacks is already a good knife, as has been proved in the wars in which the Cossack cavalry participated.
There are many kinds of swords in the world, but only the Cossack cavalry knife is called "eagle claws"!He is a warrior's knife!
Made with steel from the smelting of Central Asian iron ore smelting, thick back wide edge, deep arc blood trough, beautiful yet fierce arc, eagle-headed copper handle, and backward center of gravity, so that the Cossacks can "cut off the opponent's head like chopping vegetables!"
Wearing a black cloak and waving a Cossack sausage, the Cossack cavalry, was called the "Eagle of the Don River", but compared with the little cavalry, Proveto felt that he was leading not the Cossack cavalry, but a group of beggars!
The cavalry on his side wore a cylindrical cap, some of them were covered with black cyanes, and the weapons in his hand were also spears and sabres, and there were no few people to use such things as muskets.
The cavalry opposite was good, from head to toe was armor, everyone had a short musket in their hands, immediately hung with long wool, waist still hanging a sabre, even the horse head is wrapped in iron!
What is more pitted is that the sabres on their side are cut to the bodies of their cavalry, often just to bring a spark, unless they are cut in the neck or joints where there is no protection to cause harm to the other party, and the other side of the sabre can break the cavalry on their side!
That’s not the same as the swords in the legend, right?
Prokofi could not think of what kind of country could make the cavalry so luxurious equipment, so that the cavalry of the child could not be regarded as cavalry?
Procofi, who had a stomach of evil fire in his heart, felt that it was necessary to change his tactics tomorrow, and the cavalry opposite the direct army encircled.
Never mind whether there is any reinforcements behind them, and regardless of what kind of method of warfare they intend to adopt, the direct army presses up to besiege them, and do not let them run away.
As long as this small stock of cavalry is killed, their equipment is their own, they can be armed with their cronies, and then go to snatch more things and equipment!
As for the fabled fist of God and the horror of the Golden Horde, what is terrible under the temptation of these equipments in front of us?
Prokofi thought so, and did it, but the small cavalry on the other side reacted to Proko菲's prediction.
Provefield thought from beginning to end that the small cavalry would come over and fight with himself, but the fact was that the cavalry had fired a rain of arrows and brought some casualties to his side and ran away.
They ran away...
Proko菲s can't care what army can't kill now, how do people run away?If you don't catch up with them, will you lose dozens of people in vain this time?The angry Proveveck in his heart simply commanded the team to catch up.
After the two sides ran from west to east for a few miles, the speed of the cavalry team on the opposite side gradually slowed down, and Provence was suddenly happy in his heart.
The other side's weapons and equipment are very much, the weight will be heavier, the weight of the war horse will be higher, and the physical exertion will be faster.
Now this situation shows that the other's horses are no longer able to run, as long as they catch up with them, these cavalry like the Tatars will die!
The horse was running quickly forward, but Proko菲s slowly raised the sabre in his hand, and his mouth was constantly drinking.
Meng Xianglin looked back at the getting closer and closer Cossack cavalry, and after a sneer, pulled out an iron pimple from his waist, opened the iron ring and threw it on the ground, and then accelerated the horse speed.
A group of horses who followed Meng Xianglin were also acting like the Fa, and after the distant figure was a smoking iron pimple.
Prokofi was a little embarrassed, and it was not clear what the iron bumps thrown by Meng Xianglin and others were, and they felt strange about their sudden acceleration.
If they could suddenly accelerate now, it means that they had deliberately slowed down the horse, not that the horse under their crotch was tired.
As for the smoking iron pimples, although I don't know what the thing is, Proveffy still instinctively felt the wrong thing, intending to turn the horse around the iron pimples.
However, the horse that has run up to want to complete the turn in a short moment is impossible, which is why the cavalry battlefield has chosen to be in the open barrier-free zone, in order to allow the horse to run.
With a loud bang, the whole man could be seen clearly by Prokofi, who was flying at the top of the horse, and the cavalry in the distance slowed down again and again, and came back from a distance.
It's all over!
Prokofi is not stupid, although the cavalry on his side is many, but in this sudden change can maintain a little bit of combat power is really difficult to say, and since the people on the opposite side dare to come back, it shows that they also have corresponding countermeasures.
P.S. There’s more to it.
