Although the encirclement of the Far Eastern Army was very tight, the Russian camp was too large, and nearly 10,000 Cossack cavalry still took advantage of the cover of night to break out of the encirclement of the Far Eastern Army.

But they were even more miserable, and immediately fell into the vast sea of the people's war of the Far Eastern Army, and countless young men of the Far Eastern nomadic detachment were scattered around, just like they hunted on weekdays, chasing and killing these Cossacks everywhere.

The Cossacks who were scurrying around, riding frantic war horses, without weapons, supplies, and spare horses, could not escape the safari of countless nomadic detachments of herdsmen.

One by one, the Cossack cavalry was surrounded by the Mongol herdsmen, and then pulled off their horses with leather ropes, and were dragged back to the camp by the galloping horses. Many Cossacks were dragged to death, and even those who survived had an even more tragic end.

The Far Eastern Army has organized a large number of Russian prisoners of war to lay wooden stakes on the edge of the camp, as long as the herdsmen of the nomadic detachment drag back a batch of hair, the dead will be dealt with directly, and the living will be worn on the stakes immediately.

Ostoloff's job now is to thread the hairs on the stakes, and this job is definitely not a good job. He watched a man dying on a stake, letting out a terrible howl, and these people were all wearing on the stake with his own hands, and he could imagine his mood at this time.

But compared to his own life, these are of course nothing, and the only trace of guilt is that he slowly becomes insensitive as he sends one Russian after another to the stake.

After a few days of busyness, under the hard work of many Maozi captives. The battlefield has finally been cleared. All the corpses have been disposed of, and the booty of the camp has been collected.

During this period, a large number of Maozi captives also endured inhuman torture. I work more than a dozen hours a day, but I can only eat two moldy, dry and hard coarse bread bran. Coupled with the fact that they work in the field every day, thousands of people die one after another because they can't stay up.

The rest were also put into coolie camps and sent to mines, stone quarries, forestry farms, and railway and road construction sites in Siberia and the Outer Northeast. Working more than ten hours a day, with only two half-full meals, the conditions are extremely harsh. Under such difficult conditions, more than 30,000 Russian prisoners died one after another within a few years.

The Ob River Basin of Western Siberia is flat and is dominated by tundra, forest-tundra, forest, forest-steppe and steppe belt.

If a rout is formed during the battle, once tens of thousands of Cossack iron horsemen scatter and flee, it will be difficult to completely annihilate the Russian army in such an environment. In order to annihilate all the main forces of the Russian army, the headquarters of the Siberian Corps developed several sets of operational plans before the war.

Therefore, the headquarters of the Siberian Corps invested the main division of Bagen and a large number of reserve militia brigades, and also mobilized a large number of nomadic detachments of herdsmen and young people, striving to use strong firepower and superior forces to completely annihilate the Russian army in the Tyumen region.

But who would have thought that after the Russian army crossed the Ural Mountains, it was very cautious all the way, not only did not divide the troops, but in order to prevent the night attack of the Tatars, the camp was built impregnable every day. It's like a turtle shell.

This also created conditions for the Far Eastern Army to completely annihilate the Russian Siberian Expeditionary Force, and set up a battlefield in advance in the Tyumen region. Take advantage of powerful artillery units and detachments of airboats. With heavy artillery fire and bombardment, the enemy's living forces were massively damaged. The fortified camp originally built to prevent the Tatars from harassing at night ended up being the grave of the Russian army.

The Siberian campaign went smoothly beyond everyone's expectations, and the four main cavalry divisions of the indigenous people in the east and northeast, the four newly built cavalry divisions in the west field, and a number of reserve militia brigades that were originally invested in the campaign basically did not even sweat.

The Siberian campaign went so smoothly that Gao Jianguo, Li Ming, and others of the Military Commission had the ambition to further expand the results of the war. Gao Jianguo, Li Ming, Song Tao and others at the headquarters of the Siberian Corps. A military meeting was convened to study and develop a plan of action for the next steps.

After careful study, it was decided that the Siberian Corps should quickly move westward across the Ural Mountains, penetrate deep into the depths of Russia, and sweep the steppes of South Russia. Join the northbound detachment of the Western Advance Corps under the city of Moscow.

At the same time that the Far Eastern Army eliminated the Russian Siberian Expeditionary Force, the Western Advance Corps also launched the Kazakh Campaign. The Kazakh campaign, which had been planned for a year, was also implemented.

The delay of the Western Advance Corps in launching the Kazakh campaign by one year also made the Western Advance Corps unable to achieve the suddenness of the campaign, giving the Kazakh Khanate sufficient time to prepare, and the situation on the battlefield became complicated.

According to the information fed back by the Ministry of Intelligence, the airboat detachment, and the ground reconnaissance team that infiltrated the depths of the Kazakh Khanate, many tribes in the Kazakh Khanate have gradually moved westward, southward, and northward in the past year.

The elite main forces of the Kazakh Khanate, which is stationed in the area west of Lake Balkhash, are also scattered at present.

The strategic intention of the Kazakh Khanate has been very obvious, that is, the rear tribes are adopting the strategy of clearing the wilderness, and the elite and young herdsmen of the tribes on the front line will use the desert areas of the Kazakh steppe to fight a protracted war and a war of movement with the Far Eastern Army.

In this way, in the course of the Kazakh campaign, the Far Eastern Army could not achieve the strategic intention of quickly closing the encirclement and annihilating the main elite of the Kazakh Khanate. In the future, the Kazakh campaign became more and more difficult, and the original plan of quickly annihilating the main forces of the Kazakh Khanate was no longer realized.

It is true that the Far Eastern Army swept the steppes in the northern part of the Central Plains, causing a large number of Moxi Mongolian tribes to move westward in a big way, and the Kazakh Khanate also had a very clear understanding of the strength of the Far Eastern Army.

Sal Hamu, who has just succeeded to the throne of Khan. According to the information provided by the Mongol tribes who moved west to the Kazakh steppe, Jangar Khan specially sent a large number of reconnaissance teams to go deep into the Moxi steppe and collect a large number of intelligence on the Far Eastern Army.

Therefore, the Kazakh Khanate also made targeted arrangements, trying to avoid a decisive battle with the Far Eastern Army, but to break up the vast Kazakh steppe into pieces, adopting guerrilla tactics, in an attempt to drag down the main force of the Far Eastern Army in the Kazakh steppe, and then concentrate superior forces to attack the weak logistics and transportation lines in the rear of the Far Eastern Army.

Strive to fight a long-term campaign with the Far Eastern Army in the Kazakh steppe, dragging down the main forces of the Far Eastern Army and forcing the Far Eastern Army to have problems due to logistical support. The Far Eastern Army, which could not receive support from the rear, could only be forced to withdraw.

Although the Kazakh Khanate of Sal Kham. Jangar Khan, who played a good hand with wishful thinking. The strategy he formulated did bring certain problems to the Far Eastern Army. But it's just a trouble, and to put it bluntly, it's just a delay of some time.
