Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 892 Cossack Cavalry

In October 1687, Golovin led his army to station in Selengesk, and launched a war of conquest against the Chinese Khalkha Mongolia and Buryat Mongolia in the Outer Baikal region.

At the same time, it created divisions among the various tribes of Mongolia and supported Galdan, the leader of the Junggar tribe, to attack Khalkha.

In 1688, Golovin arrived in Selengesk. On the one hand, he supported Galdan’s attack on Khalkha Mongolia. On the other hand, he directly sent troops to attack Buryatia and other local Mongolian tribes to consolidate Russia’s rule over the area east of Lake Baikal. .

In March 1688, Golovin sent people to Beijing and asked the Qing government to send envoys to Selengesk for negotiations.

The Qing government immediately sent Suo'etu, the Minister of Guards, and others to go northward. Due to the battle between Junggar and Khalkha, the road was blocked and he was ordered to turn back.

In March 1689, according to the order of the Tsarist government, Golovin sent another delegation to Beijing, suggesting that a meeting of envoys of the two countries be held in Nerchinsk.

The Qing government agreed.Suo'etu, a minister of the Qing Dynasty, and others were ordered to embark on the journey, with about 2 troops, and arrived in Nerchinsk in July.

Golovin arrived at the meeting place in August. Both sides chose 8 guards to accompany them. On the 200nd, China and Russia began negotiations.

Golovin made all kinds of unreasonable demands in an attempt to expand the territory ruled by the Russian Empire and illegally occupy Chinese territory.

In September 1689, the Sino-Russian "Treaty of Nerchinsk" was signed, which clearly defined the eastern border between China and Russia.

Although Golovin failed to win the land north of Heilongjiang to the outer Xing'an Mountains for Russia.

However, it also successfully kept the east of Lake Baikal to the Heilongjiang River Basin, making it an important Russian stronghold in the Far East.

It can be said that the land that Huaxia began to lose is directly related to this bandit.

The Mughal Kingdom was originally inextricably linked to the Yarkand Khanate.

But when the Ming Dynasty attacked the Yarkand Khanate, they not only refused to send troops to each other, but they didn't fart.

In fact, it was not that the Mughal Kingdom did not want the land of the Yarkand Khanate, but that it felt that it could not resist the Ming army. Anyway, after his defeat, he was directly killed by the Ming army to his old nest.

Later, the Raksha State sent people to lobby, and the Mughal Kingdom felt that the powerful Raksha State and the other two Khanates had united against the Ming Dynasty, and they should be able to get a share of it, so they decided to send troops.

Rakshasa even talked about the Mughal Kingdom, and the Mughal Kingdom also agreed to send [-] troops, let alone other countries.

As the Ming army marched westward, the Kazakh Khanate and Bukhara Khan were the first to bear the brunt.

With the powerful Tsarist Russia in the north and the prosperous Mughal Empire in the south, their confidence soared. They vowed to defeat the Ming army, capture the Ili River Valley, and block the Ming Dynasty from the Tianshan Mountains!

The Bukhara Khanate is a feudal dynasty in the Persian cultural circle established by the Uzbeks in the middle of the river in Central Asia.

Named after the capital was moved to Bukhara (now Bukhara, Uzbekistan) in the middle of the 16th century, it was once a powerful Central Asian military-feudal dynasty.

Under the auspices of the Raksha State, the Three Kingdoms formed an anti-Ming alliance, with the Raksha State at the head.

The three countries sent 15 troops, and the Luocha Kingdom also sent [-] troops, including [-] Cossack cavalry.

Speaking of the Cossack cavalry, it always gives people a feeling of invincibility, and it is definitely a famous cavalry that everyone knows.

In the era of cold weapons, fast maneuvering, coming and going like the wind, the "cavalry" galloping vertically and horizontally is undoubtedly the trump card and powerful force to defeat the enemy on the battlefield.

And relying on a war horse and a saber, he has galloped for hundreds of years and thousands of miles across the vast battlefield across Eurasia.

The Cossack cavalry, which has left a rich and brilliant legend in the history of world wars, can be called the "trump card" among the "trump cards" and the "nemesis" on the battlefield that makes opponents fearful.

A generation of heroes and military genius Napoleon also fought against the Cossack cavalry. He suffered a lot for it and said frankly:
"If my troops had Cossack cavalry, my army would sweep the world."

Cossack cavalry, Mongolian cavalry, European heavy cavalry, and Polish hussars are often hailed by military historians as "the world's four major cavalry."

"Cossack" comes from the Turkic language, and is a "green forest hero" in Russian folk literature. Many books explain it as "a free man, a hero" and so on.

Cossacks are not actually an independent nation, but a military group whose members are mainly Slavs, such as Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians and Poles, in addition to a small number of Tatars, Caucasians, Georgians and Turks wait.

In a word, the Cossacks are a social group composed of Russians as the main body and a small number of people from other ethnic groups, referred to as "ethnic group".

Russian Cossacks are like European knights, Japanese samurai ronin, and Chinese knights.

It is one of the most legendary groups in the world. In a sense, the Cossacks are a group of horses.

In history, Cossacks were not only desirable exotic heroes, but also terrifying executioners and accomplices of the tsarist suppression of revolution.

In the mid-15th century, the powerful Ottoman Empire in the south posed a growing threat to the Slavic states.

At this time, the Cossacks, who had achieved frequent success in the fight against the invasion of the Turks and the Tartars, rose to fame and became a force that the Principality of Poland and the fledgling Grand Duchy of Moscow increasingly relied on in their wars against the aliens in the south.

In the era of cold weapons, the Cossack cavalry attacked Europe with its fast speed, strong mobility, great lethality, and bravery and skill.

The Cossack cavalry has been fighting in groups and plundering houses at the beginning, and later conquering east and west, and fighting south and north. In its 600-year history of development, the battles have almost never stopped.

Since its official appearance on the European war stage in the sixteenth century, the Cossack cavalry has been integrated into the history of Russian war conquest.

The Cossack cavalry has won the highest honor with blood, life, bravery and wisdom. The Tsar once bestowed on it the honor of serving as the Imperial Forest Army.

A statistic shows that the Cossacks were the troops awarded the most pennants and Guards titles, regardless of whether they were in Tsarist Russia or the Soviet Union.

During the long-term campaign, the Cossack generals were like clouds and stars were shining, and many outstanding military generals emerged.

The most famous is the legendary hero, Marshal Budyonny of the Soviet Union. The First Cavalry Army of the Red Army commanded by him is so powerful and invincible that it is well known and legendary.

It is precisely because the Cossacks performed so perfectly in cavalry that they continued until World War II.

The Soviet Union still retains a large number of cavalry units for charging, and at its peak, several guard cavalry corps were formed.

Loot and salaries once became an important source of life for the Cossacks, and then the wine industry developed unprecedentedly in the Cossack region.

Because spirits are as indispensable as air, food and water to the alcoholic Cossacks.

Now that the Ming army with the best equipment in the world meets the Cossack cavalry, it remains to be seen what kind of sparks their collision will spark.
