    In the past month or so, there have occasionally been silly Jurchens or other tribesmen, just pretending that this stronghold is still in the hands of the Jurchens, driving cattle and sheep or carrying prey, wanting to come in to escape the winter.  Therefore, Andrerov was not surprised that the Jurchens appeared.

    Therefore, he ordered without hesitation: "Let the Cossacks be ready. We still need to add some meat for the winter in our cellar. If they don't want to starve this winter, don't let those Jurchens escape!"

    The Cossacks cheered and mounted their horses, and then swarmed out. Andreov himself was too lazy to charge again. He climbed up the watchtower and looked to the west.

    The stronghold has only one door, which opens to the southeast. This is to avoid the strong wind from the northwest and to protect the stronghold.  Therefore, the few Jurchens who came from the west may not have noticed the movement in the stronghold. They drove their horses one by one and trudged this way through the knee-deep snow.  They were driving a lot of horses, more than ten of them, and the horses were all carrying bulging backpacks, and they looked like they had gained a lot.

    Andrerov grinned widely.

    ????????????????????????????????????? If all the camels are eating are food, then their food problem will be solved this winter.

    Andrerov watched the Cossacks rush out of the city wall, then walked around the stronghold and rushed towards the Jurchens.  The Jurchens realized something was wrong and immediately turned around. Their horses scattered and fled, and they themselves turned around and ran away.

    The Cossacks were not worried that the horses would run away, and they all shouted and chased after the Jurchens. Andrerov watched them disappear into the distant woods.  Grinning.

    But just ten minutes later, Andrerov¡¯s smile froze.

    The sound of fierce gunfire came from the distance, which was exactly the direction in which the Cossacks were chasing the Jurchens. The sound of gunfire was so dense that at least Andrerov had never heard such dense sound of gunfire!

    Knowing that the situation was not good, he immediately shouted: "Close the door and everyone enter the fortifications. Get ready, artillery, artillery!"

    Can have such a dense number of muskets.  Then there would be at least a thousand enemies coming - Andrerov couldn't help but think of the desperate curses of the Jurchen captives before they were killed. At that time, they said, "Wait, Yu Hu will bring his firearm army to crush them all."  you".

    Now.  That "Yu Hu" is here.

    Little did Andrerov know that "Yu Hu" among the Jurchens was a nickname they gave Yu Guozhen because they did not dare to call him by his name.  But he knew what a terrifying beast the "tiger" was in the cold forest of the Far East.

    Soon, he knew what a terrifying beast it was. The gunshots rang out for less than ten minutes, and then there was deathly silence.  Then, Andrerov saw several horses dragging a sled, struggling towards the stronghold.

    On the sleigh, there were piles of heads.

    It is probably a tradition for the Chinese army to cut off the heads of their enemies to build a temple in Beijing.  In the Northern Army, this tradition was taken to the extreme.  Wang Haoran, the governor-general of the Northern Army, was nicknamed "King of All Killers". Although he was a scholar, he cut off heads more neatly than Tian Boguang and Qi Niu. Under this influence.  How could the Northern Army be so merciful!

    These dozens of heads, of course, belonged to the Cossacks who had just been chasing them. After Andrerov, who was standing on the watchtower, saw clearly through the telescope, the telescope in his hand almost fell.

    In so much time, dozens of fierce Cossacks were wiped out. In Andrerov's memory, even Europa did not have such a powerful army!

    The opponent must have a large number of people, maybe even tens of thousands. I heard that the Chinese country in the east has a large population. Their emperor sent tens of thousands of soldiers, just like the tsar sent thousands.

    "Set up the cannon, set up the cannon!" Andrerov shouted in panic. Although he had given this order once before, now he was just shouting desperately, hoping to make some noise to give himself  Take courage.

    The more ferocious a person is, the more timid they are. They often use their ferocity to cover up their cowardice.

    After a while, Andrerov saw a figure appearing by the woods.

    ¡°These figures wearing uniforms of white and gray are difficult to distinguish from their surroundings if you don¡¯t look carefully.  Their movements in the snow were also very slow, and they stopped immediately after leaving the forest.  Andrerov was a little calmer at this time, because the number of enemies he saw was not many, just more than thirty.

    ¡°More than thirty enemies came out in a big way, and then began to stop about a kilometer away from the stronghold. They began to set up a stand, and it seemed that they were preparing to use a weapon similar to artillery.

    AndrerovHe didn't quite believe that the four artillery-like weapons set up by the other party were really useful, because in his concept, this kind of short cannon should have a very short range, and the power of the shells would not be very high.

    "These Rakshasa ghosts are easier to deal with than originally thought. We are still too cautious." A soldier from the Chinese army under the city said with a smile.

    "What nonsense? We are fighting on the basis of being prepared but not prepared. We all carry seven days of ammunition with us. If we really fight a protracted war here, what about supplies? Especially in a few days, it will be so cold that even birds dare not take it.  If you come out to pee, how can you fight at that time?" Yu Xiang laughed and scolded: "It's enough for us to take advantage. Don't think too much. With this battle as a base, we are afraid that we won't be needed in any future battles?"

    "Company Commander, you are so steady and careful every step of the way. No wonder you can become the company commander."

    "After this battle, please flatter me again!"

    Yu Xiang sounded a little arrogant, but he was still very cautious. He raised his head and looked at the opponent's stronghold. If the opponent had enough troops, he should open the door at this time to prevent him from using mortars. But now the opponent's Cossack cavalry was almost  All were wiped out, and only a few infantry remained. If you open the door, you will die.

    Of course, if you don¡¯t open the door, you will die.

    Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Yu Xiang's face: If his father knew the news, he would definitely praise him, but he couldn't let his mother know, otherwise she would cry again.

    China¡¯s weapons development work has never relaxed, and because of Yu Guozhen¡¯s foresight, he is always able to provide the clearest guidance for the development direction of weapons.  Now the small infantry units of the Chinese Army have abandoned the cumbersome field artillery in the past and replaced them with lighter mortars. Only the main force will be equipped with heavy artillery.

    Even mortars have an overwhelming advantage over the Rakshasa people.

    Four mortars were launched at the same time. In the blink of an eye, the Rakshasa people's simple fortifications were reduced to pieces, and the Rakshasa people who were still probing the fortifications just now were turned into meat paste.

    "How many shells did we bring?" Yu Xiang was very happy when he saw that the first round of shooting hit.

    "A total of two cardinal shells."

    "After the fight, the shells are not worth the lives of our brothers."

    "The company commander is right!" The subordinates all looked at him with admiration. Although the company commander was young, he was generous in his actions. Two basic shells were destroyed as soon as he was told, and they were replaced by other companies.  I am afraid that a base number is enough.

    They don¡¯t know that Yu Xiang is the son of Yu Guozhen, and money is not a problem at all in his mind.

    After the two basic mortar shells were fired, there was almost nothing decent in the entire stronghold.  Yu Xiang looked at it for a long time, and finally saw a Rakshasa man who was still moving. He pointed at him without hesitation: "If you see it, kill him."

    After more than a dozen gunshots were fired, the Rakshasa man suddenly stopped moving.

    "Company commander, shall we go up?" someone asked again.

    Yu Xiang raised his head and looked at the sky: "Okay, we have to stay here tonight. We have tidied up the battlefield earlier and cleaned it up."

    However, cleaning the battlefield was not as easy as he thought. With the help of broken walls, the Rakshasa people resisted stubbornly. After entering the stronghold, almost every distance they advanced, they faced cold bullets from the Rakshasa people, while the Chinese army  There were also casualties here.

    This made Yu Xiang very unhappy. He originally wanted a complete victory.

    The resistance of the Rakshasa people aroused Yu Xiang's anger. He even spared no regard for ammunition. It took him more than ten minutes to kill the last Rakshasa person who was resisting before he calmed down.

    "It's bad. I originally wanted to capture a few prisoners and see if there are any alive, brothers. Don't kill any more if there are."

    ¡°I don¡¯t know, let¡¯s search for it, maybe there is one in some corner.¡±

    "Company Commander, you are not the only one who was killed, and six of our brothers died. Even if these Rakshasa ghosts die, they are not enough to save the lives of our brothers."

    Although there were sacrifices, the subordinates were generally very happy. This was a great victory. Facing a considerable number of opponents, they defeated them with very limited casualties.  Yu Xiang didn't get a perfect ending, and he still felt a little uncomfortable. However, he could only comfort himself with his father's words: "When it comes to things in this world, you must work very hard, bloom nine cents of flowers, bear eight cents of fruit, and reap seven cents."  Prepare carefully.¡±

    You can¡¯t find any living Rakshasa people outside, so you can only look at a few crumbling houses.  Yu Xiang felt a little regretful. Maybe she shouldn't have done it so thoroughly. She should at least leave a few rooms to block the north wind for everyone tonight.

    Andrerov huddled in a room, the gun in his hand had been thrown away long ago, and a Gossack usedThe saber was his only weapon. While calming himself down, he stared at the Chinese man who was slowly walking over.

    Judging from the attitude of the people around him, this young Chinese should be the commander of this unit. He seemed a little absent-minded. Andrerov felt that he might have a chance to take him hostage.

    Even if you can't get away, killing this guy can relieve the anger in your heart.

    The distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer. The Chinese officer seems to want to enter this room. There is only a door panel between the two sides.  Andrerov raised the saber. Although there was no momentum on the horse, Andrerov believed that as long as he passed by with the saber, the Chinese man's head would be separated from his body.

    Yu Xiang stopped in front of the door. He squinted his eyes. This was his father's habit. He would do this when he was thinking about things.
