Marshal Morozov of the Russian Army's Eastern Crusade, led the main forces of the Russian army, eating ashes behind the cavalry, they had many infantry troops and moved relatively slowly.

While the cavalry was biting the Mongols, Morozov's main Russian army reached the camp abandoned by the monks.

Morozov was full of confidence in this expedition, but it was not easy to conquer the Mongols, because he was afraid that the Mongols would swim without a fight, and the army would not be able to touch the Mongols.

When he arrived at the monk's camp, Morozov was even more worried that it would not be good news for him if all the Mongols along the way withdrew, but fortunately he had enough cavalry with him this time, and the hounds had been released, so he just had to wait for news.

In the early morning, the Russian soldiers spread white cloth on the table and prepared fine food and wine for Marshal Morozov.

The Russian aristocracy did not pay attention to these things before, but as the countries of Western Europe became rich, the lifestyle of the French and Habsburg nobles affected Russia, and the upper class of the Russian aristocracy began to pay attention to it.

At this time, Marshal Morozov had just arrived at the table and brought himself a glass of vodka, when a Russian officer walked in, saluted and reported loudly. "Your Excellency Marshal, the Mongols have been surrounded by General Zolotarenko in the city of Henglus, Your Excellency the General asks Your Excellency the Marshal to send reinforcements immediately!"

Morozov listened with a smile on his face, and after drinking the Votga, he stood up and said loudly: "Go, let the generals see me!" ”

After a short time, the Russian generals were recruited into the military tent, Morozov assigned the task of marching, and the generals went back to transfer troops.

The order soon spread throughout the Russian camp, and the soldiers were all moving, and the army non-commissioned officers rushed out of the camp tents, took all the equipment, gathered at the camp, and lined up in the shape of a long snake, while the cavalry flew on their horses, only the baggage and artillery were a little slower.

An hour later, nearly 50,000 Russian troops were assembled, and Marshal Morozov immediately ordered the army to set off and march towards the city of Henglus.

May 12th, Kulan City.

After the Russian army dispatched, Yuzi Khan, who got a letter from the monk asking for help, had no choice, the Russians called, they could only meet it, and the elite of the three Yuzi troops gathered near Kulan City, totaling 20,000 horse troops, 22,000 infantry troops, a total of 42,000 people.

Just like the lack of confidence in the war, the Yuzi people were also frightened, although the elite soldiers of the entire Kazakh Khanate were concentrated, but the three Yuzi were still very weak and had no confidence.

After the Zhisangha sent people to ask for help from the Jin State, Zhong Yuzi, who had a close relationship with the Jin State, also sent an envoy to ask for help from the Jin State, and also sent a messenger to the Bukhara Khanate, which occupied Samarkand in the south and the northern part of Afghanistan in the future.

For Yuzi, this battle is a battle to destroy the country, and they must ask everyone who can help.

Russian aggression has always been aimed at killing and the occupation of land. While they show off their might by killing, they migrate their own people to occupied areas.

This time, if the Yuzi people fail, the end must be tragic.

Before that, Tsarist Russia kept invading the territory of Kazakhstan, encroaching on the pastures of Yuz, and arresting Yuz people as slaves, so there was no need to instigate, and the soldiers of the three Yuz silently picked up their weapons and marched to the east.

More than 40,000 people bowed their heads and marched forward, knowing that the enemy was strong, knowing that they might be defeated, but they had no choice.

There was no sound along the way, only the footsteps of the army, but it gave a silent force.

May 16th, the city of Henglus.

The Mongols, who were reinforcing the fortifications, saw that the sky was full of yellow dust in the west, and in a short time, 20,000 Russian cavalry rushed to the city, and in the afternoon, 30,000 Russian infantry troops also rushed to the battlefield.

Faced with the rudimentary fortifications of the Mongols, the Russian infantry did not wait for the baggage team carrying the artillery to follow, and began to launch a frantic charge against the city of Henglus.

The monk commanded the Mongols, with bows and arrows and bird guns to shoot continuously, but very helpless, Henglus City was abandoned for a long time, and the Russian army in many areas could directly climb the city, and the Russian muskets were powerful, suppressing the firepower of the Mongols, and the Russian army soon rushed up to fight with the Mongols hand-to-hand.

However, after all, there were 20,000 Mongols in the city, and the defenders were sufficient, and the Mongols scattered a lot of thistles outside the city, which affected the attack of the Russian army, and the battle became anxious, and when the battle went into the evening, the Russian army took the initiative to retreat.

The next day, the Russian army, having rested for the night, had breakfast, and assembled again to launch another onslaught on the city, and the monks and the Mongols barely supported it, but after the arrival of the Russian army's baggage and heavy artillery, the situation was withdrawn in the direction of the Mongols.

The Russian army began to bombard the city wall with artillery, and the heavily weathered earthen wall collapsed as soon as it was hit, and the Mongols' defense immediately appeared one after another, and they fell into bloody hand-to-hand combat with the tall Russian army.

In front of the artillery of the Russian army, Marshal Morozov led Zolotarenko and other Russian generals to watch the battle, and they didn't look long before the Russian army had already attacked the city wall, and everyone immediately laughed.

After solving the 20,000 Mongols, the remaining Kulan City will be easy to fight.

Before, Morozov was worried that the 20,000 Mongols would slip away, and when he attacked Kulan City, these Mongols would detour behind him and disturb the grain route, causing him trouble, but now it seems that he has no need to worry about it at all.

At this moment, a few Russian cavalry rushed to the front and hurriedly reported: "Report to the marshal, the army of the Kazakh Khanate is marching west out of the city of Kulan, repelling our reconnaissance cavalry, and is coming here." ”

The Yuz people actually came, Morozov's smile froze, but then it suddenly melted away, and his smile became even brighter, he turned his head and said: "It's better for them to come, just in time to defeat them in one battle." ”

Soon a horse army ran far away to the east, and at first glance I didn't think much of it, but when I ran in, I found that there were about 20,000 people.

When the Mongols in the city saw the reinforcements coming, their morale was greatly boosted, and Marshal Morozov did not know the reinforcements, so he asked the attacking Russian troops to temporarily retreat so as not to be attacked by the cavalry.

The Yuzi cavalry rolled in, did not enter the city, but stopped in the northeast corner of the city, maintaining room for the cavalry to maneuver, and they did not attack the retreating Russian infantry, but stopped and waited and watched.

Nearly 10,000 Cossacks in the Russian army also came out on horseback, one left and one right, keeping on guard, if the enemy does not move, they will not move, and once the Yuzi cavalry rushes in, they will immediately meet it.

Not long after, the banner appeared again in the east, and the infantry army of more than 20,000 yutz slowly drove over, and also did not enter the city, but also marched to the northeast corner of the city, put the vehicle in front, and the cannon was pushed out, the spear was in the front, and the bow and arrow were in the center, and after stabilizing the position, they began to dig outside the city and build a camp.

The camp chosen by the Yuzi people, the north is the desert, the southwest is the city, and the monk guards the horns, but the monk is in front, the camp is behind, if the Russian army raids, the monk can go out of the city to flank the Russian army, so the Russian army did not raid, but sent cavalry to check.

The Yuz also sent sentinels to spy on the Russians, and soon the two sides found out the details of the other.

The Yuz and Mongols had 60,000 men, 40,000 cavalry, more than 20,000 infantry, 30 artillery pieces, 10,000 arquebuses, and no flintlock muskets.

The Russian army also had 60,000 men, 30,000 cavalry, 30,000 infantry, 150 artillery pieces, 15,000 arquebuses, and 15,000 flintlock guns.

It can be seen that although the strength of the two sides is similar, in terms of equipment, the Russian army occupies an absolute advantage.

It was the night monk who left 5,000 cavalry as the force to counterattack in the city, so he led more than 13,000 cavalry and quietly went out of the city, and Yuzi divided 12,000 infantry into the city to change defenses, replaced the cavalry from the city, and defended the city with a good infantry army.

This decision was very wise, but it still seemed futile in the face of the superior firepower of the Russian army.

As the attacking side, the Russian army should have suffered more casualties, but the Russians bombarded with artillery and suppressed with flintlock guns, but the Mongols defending the city suffered more than four times as many casualties as the Russian army.

The Russian army easily defeated more than 200,000 Mongols, not to mention 60,000 coalition troops. The entire city suddenly became a bottomless pit, and Yuzi Khan and the monks could only keep filling it in, but 60,000 people consumed more than 1,000 people every day, and the coalition army could not afford to consume it at all.

When the time came, on May 25, in order to ensure trade with the Jin State, 15,000 men and horses of the Bukhara Khanate rushed to support and set up camp at the southeast foot of the city, which relieved the coalition army a little, but the Khiva Khanate, which was the enemy of the Bukhara Khanate, joined the side of the Russian army, and the whole war continued to develop in a direction that was unfavorable to the coalition forces······
