Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 988 Current Situation

"Bah, bah, bah..."

"Da da da……"

When the Russian soldiers fled, the sound of machine guns and Qin-style rifle shooting could be heard endlessly.

The Russian army abandoned all the corpses, leaving only three to four thousand people who fled back to the Beidi camp in embarrassment.

"..."

In front of the camp, Mullerhonzhen and Negov were speechless for a long time as they looked at the frightened and embarrassed Russian soldiers.

"Colonel, we can't rush through. Their weird muskets are too scary. They will keep shooting at us. The firepower is too fierce." A Russian officer was shocked.

Negov looked miserable.

At this moment, he suddenly regretted his decision.

It was because he was too greedy, and he took the risk despite knowing that this weird musket was terrifying.

The charge on the right had failed, and he believed that the charge on the left would soon fail as well.

Sure enough, just as he expected.

In just over ten minutes, the remaining hundreds of Beidi cavalry and Russian troops retreated from the battlefield.

Many defeated soldiers gathered in front of them, and Mullerhonzhen and Negov's faces were almost filled with tears.

What made the two men even more irritated was that after defeating the two flanks of the army they sent, the Dasong army threw their weird muskets into the frontal battlefield and continuously fired at the Beidi soldiers in the trenches from the sides.

With the coordination of frontal soldiers and flanking soldiers, Dasong's army continued to advance at an astonishing speed and was irresistible.

"Colonel Negov, we must organize another attack on the flanks, otherwise we will lose the trench position." Mullerhonzhen said.

He has been in the military for more than forty years, experienced countless wars, and suffered major defeats.

Faced with such an unfavorable battle situation, he calmed down before Negov.

"No, this is a fueling tactic, you can't do this." Negev suddenly woke up.

This charge cost him the lives of nearly ten thousand Russian soldiers, but he failed to achieve any results.

If a second attack is launched, the result will only be the same.

Unless they can invest five or six times more troops than the opponent at one time.

But this is simply not possible.

Because the terrain of Lingwu County is hindered by the mountains to the east, the battlefield is not wide enough.

As for the west, although there is the frozen Jin River to march on, the opponent's artillery can blast the ice of the Jin River into pieces as long as it bombards the river.

By then, their soldiers will surely fall into the water and freeze to death.

That's why he said it was a fueling tactic that would not help.

After that, he explained it to Mule Hongzhen.

When Mule Hongzhen heard this, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

He was too angry to think of these details.

Seeing that neither this nor that would work, he stamped his foot hard and said, "Colonel Negev, what do you think we should do?"

Negov didn't answer, just paced back and forth, constantly measuring.

In these days of fighting, the Beidi army led by Muller Hongzhen and Ulanba suffered heavy losses.

This time going south, Mule Hongzhen personally commanded 300,000 Beidi cavalry and 350,000 infantry, while Ulanba commanded 80,000 cavalry and 150,000 infantry, as well as his 30,000 Russian soldiers.

In the last battle with the Dashong cavalry, the cavalry led by Ulanba went out with 60,000 people, but less than 3,000 came back.

More than 10,000 of the 120,000 cavalry sent by Mule Hongzhen escaped, but they were all killed by Mule Hongzhen in anger.

Now, there are only more than 200,000 cavalry left under the two men.

As for their nearly half a million infantry, 300,000 of them are servants.

During this period of time you come and I fight.

These servants were like cannon fodder. They were constantly ordered to rush out of the ditch and serve as human shields for the Beidi soldiers to resist bullets. It can be said that the casualties were huge.

At present, there are only about 150,000 servant soldiers left who can still fight, but their morale has dropped to the extreme, and deserters continue to appear.

Although Beidi's infantry suffered few casualties, they were only relatively servant soldiers, with more than 70,000 casualties.

In other words, before Dasong's army launched a counterattack today, they only had 200,000 cavalry and about 280,000 infantry left.

But now, after the Dasong army launched a full-scale counterattack, their casualties were increasing sharply.

If this continues, I'm afraid they will be wiped out.

He suddenly stopped and said: "Khan said that the Dasong people have a saying that if you keep the green mountains, you will not have to worry about running out of firewood. Now, we must withdraw to the grassland and retain our strength."

"What!" Mulehon couldn't believe his ears.

This time, he devoted all his efforts to seize the opportunity to besiege Dasong and completely destroy Dasong.

Now, after he had suffered heavy losses, Negev asked him to retreat. How could he accept it?

"Colonel Negov, I cannot agree. Even if there is only one person left in Beidi, I will fight to the end." Mullerhonzhen rejected Negov's proposal.

Negov was anxious, "Khan, you are committing suicide. Didn't you see clearly the battle just now? Your cavalry was as fragile as a toddler in front of that weird musket."

After a pause, he continued, "My suggestion is for your own good, Beidi, retreat westward, to the far west of your territory, which is closest to our capital, Petersburg. At that time, we can provide you with more support."

Naturally, he was reluctant to let Beidi, a thug, die like this.

Seeing with their own eyes the power of Dasong's soldiers and horses, they need to continue to arm the Beidi people to contain Dasong on the vast grassland.

Mulehon was really unmoved and just said coldly, "Will you Russians give up the Far North?"

"This..." Negev choked.

Naturally, they would not want to take away the territory they captured unless they stepped on their bones.

Shaking his head, he looked at Ulanba.

Ulanba showed a helpless expression.

Once his father Khan made a decision, he would not change it.

"Da da da...", "bang bang bang...", "boom boom boom..."

The battle continued, and Dasong soldiers occupied trenches one after another and continued to approach the Beidi camp.

Seeing this, Mule Hongzhen's eyes filled with crazy murderous intent.

He whispered something to Bamudan.

Bamudan nodded and turned around to enter the camp.

Not long after, 20,000 cavalrymen charged towards the left flank from the side of Zhutou Mountain.

This number is basically the maximum number of cavalry that can be accommodated on the left wing battlefield.

On the right wing, 80,000 cavalry launched a charge.

Due to their large numbers, many cavalry could only gallop on the Jinhe River.

"Crazy, crazy." Negev shook his head repeatedly and said to Ulanba, "I will never let my soldiers die so stupidly again."

After that, he ordered his officers to withdraw from the Beidi camp and retreat to the far north.

Seeing that the Russian army was about to leave, Beidi generals immediately stopped them, and the two sides confronted each other.

Mullerhonzhen shook his hand at this time, signaling for Negev to leave.

He was indeed on the verge of madness with rage, but he had not completely lost his mind.

If the war situation is irreversible, his son Ulanba will still need the support of the Russian state.
