Chapter 1064: You're Scared
Shakhovsky collapsed on the walls of the fortress, his injuries were so severe that he would have died here if he had not been treated immediately
At this time, people dressed in colorful clothes rushed up the wall with muskets. Their spears were strapped to the heads of a shiny bayonet, which was a stab at the corpses and wounded piled up on the walls of the fortress.
Shakhovsky struggled to get up, but no matter how hard he tried, it was to no avail. He knew that he would definitely die here today, and his heart was filled with boundless sorrow.
At last a young Oriental man came to his vicinity with a musket, he was seventeen or eighteen years old, and he looked very nervous, his face was red, his body was tense, and his movements were somewhat deformed.
He stabbed the corpse at his feet, when he stabbed one of the Cossacks next to Shakhovsky.
With a "poof", the Cossack suddenly screamed, and frightened the young Oriental so much that he almost sat on the ground.
"Wow......"
He turned around and vomited, until he was almost vomited, and then he came to Shakhovsky's face tremblingly, and found that there was actually a living person here, his immature face suddenly became solemn, and he looked at Shakhovsky nervously.
At this time, Shakhovsky was not afraid, and the blood of the fighting nation was also stimulated, and he roared loudly at the young Oriental.
"Come on...... Here you go......"
In the face of Shakhovsky's angry roar over and over again, this young new soldier of the Far Eastern Army suddenly became at a loss, and he wanted to stab the blood-stained man several times, but he never could do it.
Just as he was hesitating, someone suddenly slapped him on the head.
"What the hell are you inking, killing him...... Are you scared? ”
The new fighter looked back. It turned out that the person who beat him was the non-commissioned officer in the platoon, and he quickly shook his head violently and shouted: "I'm not afraid of ......"
"Zhou Xiaofeng, now I order you to use the bayonet in your hand to slaughter him......"
Zhou Xiaofeng hurriedly stood upright. Shouting: "Yes......"
After shouting, he gritted his teeth, picked up the bayonet and stabbed the man on the ground, and with a "poof", the bayonet pierced deep into Shakhovsky's abdomen.
But because he was so nervous, he didn't hit the nail on the head at all.
"Smack",
Zhou Xiaofeng's head hit again.
"You're really a wreck, you usually have such good training results, how come you become a girl on the battlefield. Continue ......"
"Yes......"
Next, Zhou Xiaofeng stabbed several times in succession, but none of them reached the training standard, and he was scolded by the non-commissioned officer in the platoon.
This is bitter Shakhovsky, he doesn't dare to shout anymore, paralyzed, this little rabbit cub, death will not let him die a happy death, he wants this kid to kill him with a knife now. Save yourself from suffering so many sins when you are dying.
But Zhou Xiaofeng seemed to have fallen into an evil spirit. No matter how much he assassinated, he couldn't hit the vital point with a single sword, and pierced Shakhovsky like a blood gourd, but he just didn't die.
Zhou Xiaofeng was surrounded by people, which also made him even more nervous, until he stabbed him a few more times. and stabbed the hairs on the ground to death. Although Shakhovsky was already dead, his eyes were staring at him, and he really couldn't blink a blind eye.
The battle was finally over, and nearly a thousand Maozi in the Yeniseisk Fortress were wiped out. None of them slip through the net. Here, the middle detachment seized thousands of various precious furs and some gold and silver coins.
Hundreds of arquebuses and several three-pounder light guns, more than a dozen Maozi boats, which are commonly used in Siberia, and large quantities of grain and dried meat and fish were also seized.
Anyway, the harvest is okay, and at present the precious furs are very popular in the European market, and the main income of the Russian treasury comes from the export of precious furs to Siberia, as well as taxes on Russian fur merchants.
Moreover, the Yeniseisk fortress established by Russia has chosen a very good location, and after some expansion here, it will also become a stronghold of the Far Eastern Army, which will be of great help to the Dongye Middle Road Detachment to continue to sweep along the river to the north.
After the Dongye Central Detachment swept the Yeniseisk Fortress, it did not continue its march north, but sent twenty river steam-deck barges back to the Baikal region to deliver large quantities of supplies here.
The vanguard of the central detachment concentrated their efforts and destroyed the Yeniseisk fortress, turning it into another forward base. As large quantities of supplies continue to be brought here, the various supplies for the improvised camp by the river have become piled up.
The army also sent small units to "mobilize" a large number of local natives in the surrounding indigenous tribes to help the troops rest the Yeniseisk fortress. They found a small open-pit coal field nearby, and the troops organized the surrounding natives to dig coal for them day and night.
A few days later, large forces of the Central Route Detachment began to arrive here one after another, and then began to continue along the Yeseny River north, carrying out a frantic sweep of Russian strongholds, fortresses and wintering grounds along the Yenisei River and its tributaries.
Siberia is a vast territory with a cold climate and a harsh environment. The Yeseni River basin alone is widely inhabited by indigenous peoples such as Evenki, Tuvan, Khakass, Yakuts, and Nenets.
At this time, Russia's power in Siberia was far less powerful than it had been since the nineteenth century, and it controlled only the three major river systems of Yeseny, Ob and Lena and their tributaries, as well as the dry roads between them.
Through wooden strongholds, occupy various key areas, and use coercion and inducement to collect high taxes from local natives.
The news that the Middle Route Detachment of the Far Eastern Army had destroyed the Yeniseisk Fortress was not known to the Russians in a short period of time because of the blockage of communications in this era, which also created favorable conditions for the Far Eastern Army to sweep the troops north.
In addition to sweeping the Russian strongholds in Siberia, the troops also had to gather the indigenous people in various regions, manage them in a unified manner, conduct winter training, and then join the indigenous villages in the Outer Northeast that came later, and carry out large-scale reorganization according to the grassroots level in the Far East, so as to achieve the goal of completely controlling Siberia.
Once Russia loses the area east of the Ural Mountains, it will inevitably have a great impact on their eastward expansion policy, and when the Northwest Field Army of the Far Eastern Army crosses the Kazakh steppe and arrives on the eastern shore of the Caspian Sea in the next two years, the Eastern European steppe in southern Russia will also face the threat of the Far Eastern Iron Cavalry.
Numerous Mongol cavalry will continue to advance northward, threatening the Russian Volga Valley, and by that time, even Moscow and St. Petersburg will be exposed to the Far Eastern cavalry. (To be continued.) )
