Daming Military Empire

Chapter 555
After Sun Chuanting won the NO.20 bastion of Tsarist Russia, he did not follow the routine of the previous few times, rest for a few days, arrange everything and set off. Instead, he led an army of 40 and the vassal state army to advance together while repairing the railway.

The reason why he did this was because he received a telegram from Lu Xiangsheng, the commander of the Ming Army in the East Road. The army converged.

In fact, Lu Xiangsheng also adopted the strategy of digging the city wall, but he did not need to build a railway, and the progress was more than ten days faster than Sun Chuanting's side. Therefore, the army from the South Road had just conquered the third bastion, and the army from the East Road had already taken the fourth bastion. The fort is almost done.

The reason why Sun Chuanting had to wait for the Ming army from the East Road to join them was mainly because the area of ​​the No. 21 Bastion in Tsarist Russia was too large.

This No. 21 bastion is exactly the one detected by Pan Feng's army. It is a three-story bastion with a scale of tens of thousands of people. Originally, Sun Chuanting was still worried that the number of Shenwei cannons on his side was not enough to suppress it. The firepower of the entire bastion is just right now. There are two first-class legions in the Ming Army on the East Road, with a full 21 Shenwei cannons. No matter how big the No. [-] bastion is, the first wave of firepower coverage will not be a problem.

Sun Chuanting's change of strategy frightened Golovin.

Originally, he brought the Qin Army, the First Frontier Army Corps and the Second Frontier Defense Army Army, and now he added the Third Frontier Defense Army Army, the First Dongying Army, the Second Dongying Army, the Korean Army, the Siamese Army, and the Donghu Army. And the Annan Legion, there are four regular legions and six vassal state legions in total, and a million troops gathered together!
How could Golovin dare to linger near the army on the South Road? He directly led the army to the front of the No. 21 bastion, bit the bullet, and formed a formation, preparing to cheer up the bastion guards before slipping away.

As a result, he had just lined up the 20 troops, and before he had time to take a tour of the No. 21 bastion guard General Viktor, news came from the east that the Ming army on the east road had laid down the No. 22 bastion and was rushing here. Woolen cloth!

He was so scared that he said directly: "I am nearby, waiting for an opportunity to attack, you must resist."

Then, he directly led the army to retreat frantically to the hinterland of Siberia, and retreated for hundreds of miles before stopping.

There is something wrong with the Ming Empire. Thirteen legions were sent to besiege a bastion with only 1 people stationed there. What's wrong with the fever of the crowd!
He didn't dare to stay nearby anymore. Those were thirteen legions. Once they were surrounded, the 20 troops in his hands would be finished.

Now, there are only so many mobile forces that Tsarist Russia can gather. If the 20 main forces are wrapped in dumplings, then the Siberian war will basically not have to be fought.

The guard of Bastion No. 21 was so frightened that he almost didn't move over. As soon as Golovin left, the next day, millions of Ming troops surrounded the southeast!

How can I fight this?Ten thousand against more than one million, can this be called a war!

Thinking of Golovin's panicked expression when he was about to leave, he finally understood that even if all the Tsarist Russian defenders in Siberia assembled for a sneak attack, they would not be able to defeat the Ming army in front of them.

How to do it?Run away? He really didn't have the courage. Golovin's lard hook is not fun, it's worse than a pig hanging on it.

Perhaps, there is only one choice, and that is, surrender!

Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting don't have time to care about Victor's thoughts at the moment. Both of them are famous generals in the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time they are highly valued by the emperor. Together they have made a lot of contributions to the Ming Dynasty. The relationship is excellent.

Since the First World War in the Southeast Peninsula, the two have not seen each other in each town for several years. It is a lie to say that they don’t miss it. No, just as the two armies met outside the bastion, Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting ordered their generals to send troops. After setting up the formation, he rode his horse and ran to the place where the two armies connected.

The two riders faced each other from a long distance away, and Lu Xiangsheng smiled heartily: "Hahahaha, Brother Boya, long time no see."

Sun Chuanting cupped his hands with a smile on his face and said, "My subordinates will see Marshal Lu."

Hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng came up on his horse, slapped Sun Chuanting on the shoulder, and then said with a smile: "It's not a surprise, why are subordinates not subordinates? In terms of age, you are still a few years older than me."

Sun Chuanting is not as good as Lu Xiangsheng, he slapped him off the horse at the wrong time, he rubbed his shoulders and smiled wryly: "Brother Jian Dou, I don't have your kung fu, you will slap someone dead if you slap like this .”

Hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng looked at his palm and said with an embarrassed smile, "Sorry, sorry, it doesn't matter if you do it just because you're happy."

Sun Chuanting shook his head, and said helplessly, "Oh, I really envy Brother Jiandou who is versatile in both civil and military affairs. He's not like me, a scholar, so weak."

Lu Xiangsheng heard the words and said modestly: "What kind of all-rounder in civil and military affairs, what we are handsome is strategy. When it comes to strategy, I am far behind you."

Sun Chuanting heard the words, smiled wryly again and said: "Brother Jiandou was joking, by the way, do you have a clever plan to attack the city this time?"

Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but asked curiously: "A clever plan? Shouldn't you just bombard him for a while and then dig directly? Does Brother Boya have any better strategies?"

Sun Chuanting smiled and said: "It's not a strategy, but I just looked through the binoculars and found that the defenders looked very frightened. Maybe we can send someone to say surrender."

When Lu Xiangsheng heard the words, he was surprised and said: "This plan is very good, you can try it, do you have a suitable candidate?"

Sun Chuanting nodded and said: "When I led the army to attack the first bastion, I happened to catch a major general of their army, maybe I can send him in for a try."

Lu Xiangsheng nodded when he heard the words, and added: "Why don't you bombard him for ten rounds with the Shenwei cannon first, give them a blow first, and then let people talk about surrender?"

Sun Chuanting heard the words, nodded and said: "Brother Jiandou is more thoughtful, or we can start."

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he directly raised his hand and made a backward move, and Sun Chuanting followed him with a tacit understanding.

Soon, the guards of the two came behind them on horseback.

Lu Xiangsheng was not hypocritical, and directly ordered: "Order, line up all the Shenwei cannons five miles away from the bastion, load solid bullets, and prepare for bombardment."

As soon as his words fell, a personal guard on each side rushed to the army formations on both sides.

At this time, the Ming army had already lined up in a neat phalanx. In the battle there, even the vassal state army was pressing down on the Wacha captives and lined up neatly behind. Soon, thousands of artillerymen pushed [-] Shenwei cannons into the formation. Go to the front row. "

Lu Xiangsheng continued: "Brother Boya, call the major general who was captured, and let's go to the front of the battle to have a look."

After all, he beat his horse and ran to the front of the battle.

Sun Chuanting hurriedly turned his head and said, "Go, bring Major General Andrei of the Tsarist Russian Army to the front of the formation."

After all, he rode his horse and followed Lu Xiangsheng to the front of the formation.

Soon, Andre was escorted to order. Lu Xiangsheng saw that the people had arrived, and immediately ordered: "Order, all Shenwei cannons are bombarded for ten rounds without interruption."

Two more personal guards dispersed to pass the order, and very soon, the roar of artillery was heard in front of the Ming army.

After ten rounds, Lu Xiangsheng winked directly at Andre. Seeing this, Andre quickly raised the small white flag in his hand and galloped towards the bastion.

The Tsarist Russian soldiers guarding the city of General Andre naturally recognized him, and he was soon hung on the city wall.
