The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

The night on April 23 was very warm, but the dark clouds were so dark that not only people could not be seen face to face, but even the trees could not be seen after ten steps of darkness. Such an environment is certainly ideal for a sneak attack.

Vasily Sheremetev selected two thousand people from an army of ten thousand people to carry out this attack on Konotop Fort.

Although some of the officers expressed to Vasily Sheremetev's concern about the loyalty of Mosi Siro, Vasily Sheremetev didn't care at all. He even laughed at the officers who persuaded him to be unreasonably worried.

"Vasily," Vasily Sheremetev said to one of the officers:

"The Cossacks and Ukrainians welcome us because we are their liberators. Moreover, people with a little sense and common sense now can see that Konotop Fort is like a baby's arm, as long as we apply a little force. Can twist him off. Mosi Silo and their Captain Hwadki just did what anyone who wants to survive would do."

Under the leadership of Mosi Silo, two thousand Russian troops entered the residential area of ​​Konotop. There is a dead silence here, and a breeze blows, making the back of your neck swish, as if a ghost is pinching your neck behind you.

There are such legends in Russia that the ghosts of those who died violently or violently will appear at night. They will dance round in groups in circles, whether it is a cross or a church, they will be helpless. Some ghosts will also be driven by witches to enter the village where the living people live to absorb the soul and energy of the living people.

Although Vasily Sheremetev did not believe in these legends, he still couldn't help asking Mosi Siro: "How long will it take to reach the tunnel you mentioned?"

Mossi Silo, who walked in front of the micro-cat, replied: "Immediately. The town hall is in front. The tunnel entrance is in the well of the town hall. But General, you must check with the soldiers. Don't light the matchstick. Because it's such a dark sky, even if it's just a spark, you can see it from Fort Konotup."

For this, Vasily Sheremetev asked Mosi Siro to rest assured. In order to prevent accidents, all the soldiers did not even bring muskets, they only brought cold weapons.

"I prefer to use an axe to chop off Cherechen's head in my sleep than with a musket." Vasily Sheremetev said.

"I can rest assured that."

Soon, after about three minutes of walking, Vasily Sheremetev and Mosi Silo arrived at the gate of the town hall.

When Mosi Silo asked Vasily Sheremetev to go in with him, Vasily Sheremetev hesitated.

It's not that Vasily Sheremetev suddenly suspected Mosi Silo, but aristocrats like Vasily always believed that gentlemen would not stand under a dangerous wall.

"I asked my adjutant to take someone in with you." Vasily Sheremetev said.

Mossi Silo didn't hesitate at all, he said hello, and then went in with Vasily's adjutant with a hundred people.

"There is indeed a well here."

After a while, the adjutant's shout came from the town hall.

Vasily Sheremetev was relieved.

But at this moment, a red light flashed in front of Vasily Sheremedev's eyes, followed by a loud noise.

It was an explosion.

"Successful!"

This was the only thought that Vasily Sheremedev had when he got up from the ground.

Immediately afterwards, torches were lit on the streets and roofs on all sides at the same time. A Cossack chief **** wearing a Cossack cap and a red striped outfit stretched out the barrel of the Russian soldier who fell into the trap.

The musket fired, and one after another Russian soldiers fell in a pool of blood.

Because of the concealment of Vasily Sheremetev's sneak attack and the evil taste of the axe, there was not a musket among the two thousand people.

Facing the fierce shooting from the guards of the Cossack chiefs, they could only fight back with their only long-range weapons-bows and arrows.

A group of intrepid Russian soldiers tried to involve the chief’s guards in hand-to-hand combat, but when they rushed closer, they discovered that barriers such as fences and wooden barrels blocked all the passages, and the door of each house was long ago. Was crucified from the inside.

The desperate Russian soldiers had to chop the obstacles with their saber and long axe in their hands, but before they could cut the gap, the Mikari musket guarded by the chief had been aimed at their chests again...

On the tower of Fort Konotop, Chechen, accompanied by Uncle Piedro, watched this scene with Captain Hevadki.

"Mosi Siro is a real Cossack." Chechen said to Captain Hevadki: "He used his life to introduce the Russians into the encirclement I originally set up, and made them pay the price of blood."

"So Silo can escape from prison. Is this your arrangement?" Captain Hevadki asked.

"Yes, in order to make the acting more realistic~www.readwn.com~ At this time, the gunfire in the Konotop residential area became quieter. Obviously the battle is almost over.

After a while, Maxim, the captain of the Cossack chief guard that Vigowski had sent to Chechen, came up.

The Captain Maxim was carrying a gun, with blood on his chest and sleeves. But from his excited look, it can be seen that those are the blood of the enemy.

"Your Excellency, team leader, we won. Two thousand Russians only escaped over three hundred, and the others were either killed by us or taken prisoners. Hey, it's really great." Maxim said excitedly.

No wonder Maxim is so excited. Although Chechen was planning this battle, it was Maxim who commanded and participated in the battle, and he was the number one hero.

And Cheerchen did not send Yelishei and others from the mercenary group, and he also planned to build the confidence of the Cossacks in it-let them fight the Russians before they can understand their enemies and believe that they can defeat them. Russian.

"Where is Vasily Sheremetev? Did he escape?" Cheerchen asked.

In fact, Maksim didn't mention the life and death of Vasily Sheremetev when he spoke just now. Cheerchen knew that Vasily Sheremetev must have escaped.

Sure enough, Maxim was suddenly depressed.

"Let him escape. This guy is really nothing! He used the flesh and blood of his own soldiers to make a path, and then slipped away. My people were going to chase, but the Russian reinforcements came at this time. "

"Forget it, I'm afraid this is God's will." Cheer Chen said relievedly.

After the battle, the Konottop residential area was plunged into a sea of ​​flames-Chechen ordered the residential area to be burned after the ambush, and never let the residential area become a cover for the Russians to attack the Konottop Fort.
