Xinshun 1730

Chapter 56 Ambush
Du Qian thought, isn't this fucking nonsense?Do I need the guts to hijack an official ship?With my current courage, if I were to encounter such a caravan, my legs would not be so lame.

This method is good, but I can't use it.

The imperial court didn't order it, and if they did this by themselves, it would be arbitrarily provoking frontier provocations.

The court is about to go to war, and I don't have any strong connections. When I know it, the Raksha people will know it too, and they won't be fooled.

How about someone in the DPRK who is good at being an official?It doesn't have to be deliberate support, as long as you know some news in advance and get some inside information, you can do things that others dare not do.

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Follow Li Muzhi's old wisdom. The Raksha people will definitely be fooled."

Liu Yu said with a smile: "I also want to make my words more clear. In this matter, the Raksha people have been fooled, so let's make a big deal. I eat meat, and your son can drink soup."

"The Raksha people can't be fooled. I'm a man of great ability. It's impossible to take down the Raksha people's castle with these thousand people without guns."

"If we don't fall for it, then we'll go back to our respective houses and find our respective mothers. The relationship is still there. In the future, if your son really goes to Wude Palace, I will take care of him. That's no different."

Du Qian was overjoyed, and felt that Liu Yu's words were more effective than those doctor's plasters, and his old legs didn't hurt much anymore.

Gulu struggled to stand up, bowed to Liu Yu and said, "Thank you, Mr. Liu. Let's check the terrain and choose a good location?"

"Well, it's not too late. If there's already a fight elsewhere, it's too late for us. Since Mr. Du has a leg injury, we don't need to go to check the terrain. My son and I will just take people there, and your lord will go to Handoli City. call the people."

"We want merit, and the soldiers want money. After breaking the Raksha castle, you and I don't want the money and fur inside. We will share it all."

Du Qian repeatedly said yes, thinking that if it really worked out, would that little fur money be worth it?With military merits and official positions, are you afraid that you will have no money in the future?

However, it is rare for Master Xiao Liu to think about how the people in the city can contribute.

Without further ado, the two of them stopped being polite.

Liu Yu went out of the house and called Du Feng who was waiting for the result outside the door.

When Du Feng saw that his father was still beaming while leaning on crutches, he couldn't guess that the deal was over, so he heaved a long sigh of relief.

Before, I didn't know whether I was looking forward to the negotiation or not.

But now there is only joy in my heart, and there is no regret about "how did the negotiation come to an end?"Only then did I realize that what I had been looking forward to all this time was to conclude this matter.

Followed Liu Yu on the horse, and called Mantou and several other masters.Row the boat, let the horse swim behind the boat, cross the Songhua River directly, and go straight to the fortress of the Raksha people on the bank of the Heilongjiang River.

Lying in the bushes far from the fort, Liu Yu observed with a telescope for a while.

Hannibal on the opposite side was indeed organizing manpower to repair the fort and was digging a hole outside.

But there are still a large number of Cossacks who don't work at all and just watch the fun. It is estimated that this black man can't control this group of unfettered Cossacks.

Judging from the situation on the opposite side, it should be unprepared for the war against Russia.Or even if the war broke out, these people may not have heard of it even if they are separated by more than a thousand miles.

This is exactly the opportunity.

Backing from the fortress, Liu Yu selected a "cemetery" for the Cossack downstream.

It is close to the river, next to a small valley, not far from the castle of the Raksha people.

If you light a bonfire and cover it with some fresh reeds to smother the smoke, it's enough to see upriver at Stepanovsk.

The nearby forest is dense, and it is time to ambush.

There is only one retreat on the road. As long as the retreat is cut off, those Cossacks who grew up in the Don River will know how to swim, and their first reaction must be to dive for their lives.

Prepare some small boats and hide them in advance. This is the downstream, swimming against the current. Those Cossacks who dived for their lives cannot escape the birch bark boats.

After carefully checking the surrounding environment, Liu Yu decided to choose this place as the place to lure the enemy into an ambush.

After memorizing the landmarks and locations, the group returned to the Acropolis of Handoli along the original road.

A few days later, the people brought by Jiaolao Butu had also returned. Liu Yu spent money to buy some food and wine from the households of the military soldiers in the Acropolis, rested for two days, and then started to act.

Jiaolaobutu took 70 people and drove the carriage to the valley.The carriages were formed into a formation, and some tea cakes and rhubarb were deliberately dried outside.

The reason for choosing 70 people is because 70 people is just the right number.

There are too few people, and there are many Cossacks who are unwilling to share money.

If there are only a dozen people and so many goods, maybe the Cossacks found will have sex with a few good buddies. The fewer the people, the more money they get.That would be pointless.

There are too many people, and the Cossacks also know that they want money first and then their lives.

If hundreds of people rely on car formations to defend, and the Cossacks have many years of experience in playing car formations, they know that they will not be able to attack, so they may really "reach out, take the initiative to rescue, and ask for some benefits in a fair way."

The three captured cannons were also assigned to Jiaolaobutu, telling him not to rush to fire the cannons, and wait until the Cossacks approached before coming back.

Liu Yu led the rest of the musketeers to ambush in the woods. Once the Cossacks were fooled and stormed Jiaolabutu's chariot formation, he would surround him from both wings.

Du Feng led Handuo Liwei's Fubing Qingqi and waited behind.After looking for an opportunity to attack, or when the Cossacks escape, hunt them down as much as possible to prevent them from returning to the castle.

Du Qian asked another officer of Handoliwei to bring some Hezhe experts to prepare a birch bark boat and hide it in the reed marsh upstream.

If a Cossack escapes by diving, row a boat to chase him down.

Everyone was very excited and their morale was high.They like this kind of ambush warfare.

Du Qian and Liu Yu jointly stated: All skins and silver taels will be shared equally when the Raksha Castle is captured.They don't draw half according to the rules.

In addition, apart from these furs and money, Fubing is also happy to get some population.

Under normal circumstances, if some people are captured, the imperial court will arrange them nearby.The captured people are generally arranged to be tenant farmers for the government soldiers.This place is not in the pass, the land is vast and the population is sparse, there is plenty of land, but there is a shortage of people who cultivate the land.

The captured expedition ship was on standby at Sanjiangkou, hidden in a puddle, and would be useful in the future.All captured captives were strictly guarded and could not escape.

After finishing the arrangement, Liu Yu jumped into the prepared car array.

"Brother Shu, the pressure here is the greatest. You have to attract them, so I can outflank them. You have to resist. If you can't bear it, then I will lead people to besiege and garrison hundreds of Cossacks." The cars lined up."

"There can't be more people. If there are more, I'm afraid those Raksha people will really choose to be a good person to help."

Jiaolao Butu smiled cheerfully, and said loudly: "Don't worry, my lord. These people are not young children, they have all been killed in the northwest. How many Cossacks can come? It's only three hundred. Brothers know it in their hearts, so naturally there will be more." Morale, bear it."

"I'm not afraid that I won't be able to bear it, but I'm afraid that the Cossacks won't come. If those Raksha people really don't come, will my lord really have nothing to do?"

Liu Yu thought for a while, then nodded cautiously.

"If you don't come, there is really nothing you can do."

I don't have the ability to rely on this manpower, so I took down the bastion defended by a general who had studied fortress engineering in France.Give me three thousand soldiers and fifty heavy artillery, maybe I dare to try. "

After saying this, he pulled Jiaolao Butu aside and whispered: "Brother Shu, I have something to tell you."

Seeing Liu Yu's mysterious appearance, Jiaolao Butu was a little puzzled.Then Liu Yu's words almost made his heart jump out of his throat.

"Until now, I won't hide it from you. The Kunlun slave among the Raksha people... is the adopted son of the old king Raksha. Do you know why I insisted on this vote?"

goo...

Jiaolao Butu spent a lot of effort, saved half of his saliva, swallowed it hard, and moistened his parched throat.

The heartbeat was like the shaking of the earth during the Shaanxi-Gansu earthquake a few years ago, and it was so rumbling that it couldn't calm down at all.The blood in the veins rushed to his head, and he felt that his head was full of blood.

The adopted son of King Rakshasa?

My goodness!This... No wonder, no wonder Mr. Liu is determined to make such a vote.

If this damn thing is done, Mr. Liu will eat big fat meat, and I will not only drink the soup, but maybe with good luck, he will be able to lick the skin of the meat.

"Damn it."

After holding back for a long time, I finally uttered a word.

"Don't worry, my lord. I'll put all my energy into it, and I'll hold on. Don't be in a hurry, my lord. You must wait until all the Rakshasa people are hooked and the formation unfolds before outflanking."

Liu Yu patted him on the shoulder and nodded vigorously at him.

As soon as Liu Yu left, Jiaolao Butu knelt down by the river with a plop.

"Cossacks of Rakshasa, I beg you, come on."

He kowtowed three times, naturally not for those Cossacks, but for his great contribution.

In the previous dynasties, eunuchs who were called fathers had to be ranked according to their seniority, not to mention such meritorious parents.If he could call his father, Jiaolao Butu would not mind being slapped twice by his own father when he came to the underworld.

After kowtowing, the preparations stopped, and a bonfire was lit by the river.

When the flames rose, all the cut fresh reed leaves were pressed on the flames, and yellow smoke of the same color as cumulonimbus clouds was suffocated.

It soars straight up to the blue sky, without the slightest wind, it can be seen even dozens of miles away.

Liu Yu looked at the thick smoke rising from a distance, thinking that this should be almost the same.I have done everything that needs to be done, and the rest is to do my best and obey the destiny.

Ordinarily, I have already done what I should do. If this tactic is used on the regular army, it is useless.It can be used on robbery Cossacks, which can be regarded as tailor-made.

If you are not fooled by this, then you can only say "fate is odd".

Knowing that no matter how wide your eyes are, it will not increase the chance by half, and it will not increase the chance by praying from the Queen Mother to the Virgin Mary. Liu Yu rolled a cigarette and took a few puffs until he felt dizzy. It's calmed down.

The young man who can write a few words in Russian is writing a few lines according to Liu Yu's order.

In the distance, Chelikov, who had chosen to tie his hair up after being captured, was being escorted towards Liu Yu.

Liu Yu closed her eyes, and drove away the dizziness caused by the heavy smoking. Knowing that this matter can only wait, it is the right way to calm down and prepare for the next step.

The young man who could write in Russian finally stopped his pen, and the deer blood used as paint covered several pieces of leather that were put together.

The Russian written above is very large, and there are only a few simple letters.

"Reject Yasak!"
