Iron Dynasty

Yelets.

This is a military fortress located on the border of Tsarist Russia. In order to defend the Eastern Empire, which was the homeland of the Golden Horde, Yelets' garrison has increased from 8,000 to 30,000 over the years.

During this period, the Yelets military fortress was repeatedly fortified, like a mountain sitting on the road to the hinterland of Tsarist Russia.

Like every morning, Oleg led his scout team to investigate the situation on the grassland after breakfast. This was his daily task.

When he first received the task, he was excited and apprehensive, always worried that he would be discovered by the Imperial Lancers.

These imperial scouts armed to the teeth are very brave, and their marksmanship is precise. Once discovered, they basically cannot return to Yelets alive.

But after a few rounds of players, Oleg became smarter. He no longer went to the route reconnaissance where the imperial scouts often appeared, but often wandered aimlessly and came back. After all, the empire has not appeared in these years. The behavior of crossing the line, early warning and investigation is of no use.

And his team members were unwilling to die at the hands of the imperial scouts, and they tacitly concealed this behavior with him.

Of course, the route he chose is not worthless, and sometimes he can still find some traces of imperial actions.

For example, in an area in the east of the imperial military fortress, the imperial scouts patrolled very frequently and intensively, as if they were covering up some secrets.

But today, he finally discovered the anomaly when he was heading towards this area as before.

In front of them, dark green, peculiarly shaped steel monsters are advancing in the direction of Yelets, and behind these steel monsters are different machines, which are full of soldiers with guns and live ammunition.

What is this TM! Oleg felt that his soul froze in an instant. This kind of fear from the unknown made him turn his horse's head and run towards Yelets with his team members.

Leaning out of the tank, Qi Guangyi watched the fleeing scouts with binoculars.

He patted the heavy body of the tank, and then glanced at the personnel carrier following the tank group. Qi Guangyi's demeanor seemed a little relaxed.

According to the emperor's order, this time he concentrated all the machinery in the military base to prepare for a small-scale mechanized operation.

To this end, 180 tanks, 130 troop carriers and 3,600 infantrymen rushed out.

This time his goal was to break through Yelets and turn it into ruins.

General, do you want to deal with these scouts? asked the gunner in the tank.

No need, it's boring to fight with us in the castle where our enemies are, keep the speed behind them. Qi Guangyi's eyes flashed a hint of mischief.

Ahead, Oleg desperately urged the war horse that was sitting down, and turned back while galloping at him. When he found that these machines were not as fast as horses, he felt a little more at ease.

But the sudden appearance of the imperial army was still full of uncertainty. He kept pushing the horses, and at noon he finally saw Yelets.

During this period, more and more scouts discovered this strange imperial army.

Colonel Maxime, we are in trouble. Oleg rushed into the city and immediately climbed up the wall.

At this time, a middle-aged man was standing on the city gate observing the situation outside Yelets. He was the commander of Yelets, Maxim.

You need to say that our enemy is under our noses. Maxim frowned.

All these years of peaceful life are the norm, but there is no doubt that this calm was suddenly broken.

Although I don't know what these damned machines do, they seem to have only 3,000 people. Maxim's eyes gleamed, And Yelets' Cossack cavalry numbered 10,000.

With so few people going to Yelets, they must have something to rely on. Beside Maxime stood his adjutant.

Then let those Cossacks test their depths. Maxim is a typical nobleman, and he has no affection for the Cossacks. In his opinion, the Cossacks are a group of despicable people.

The adjutant nodded and immediately dispatched the three thousand Cossack cavalry in the city to go out to fight.

More than 3,000 cavalrymen filed out of the city, and the Cossack cavalry immediately rushed towards the imperial army with sabres.

This time, the Imperial Lancers did not appear, which made them a little unscrupulous, because here they encountered the most fierce Lancers.

In front of the Yelets fortress was a vast flat area. After finding a large number of cavalry rushing out from Yelets, Qi Guangyi decisively ordered the tanks to line up in a horizontal line against the Cossack cavalry.

At the same time, the soldiers on the troop carrier also entered a fighting stance, ready to shoot at any time.

Ula...

Facing the strange imperial machinery, the Cossack cavalry did not hesitate much. In the Russian army, the Cossacks hated the imperial soldiers the most, because the imperial lancers annihilated more than 20,000 of them when they rescued the Golden Horde. Their honor was damaged and their combat effectiveness was questioned.

So, once put into battle, every Cossack cavalry is filled with hatred.

It's just that the times seemed to play a joke on them. When they slashed at the Empire's tanks with their sabres, the only thing they got was the crisp sound of metal slamming.

Some of the unwilling Cossack cavalry were very unwilling. They repeatedly hacked around the tank, but could not cause even a little damage to the tank.

And the strange machinery of the empire is also very quiet, chopped and chopped by a circle of Cossack cavalry, and the clanging sound resounded through the battlefield.

Maxim's expression was the same as Oleg's, and they both had a ghostly look.

On the battlefield, the impatient Cossack cavalry soon lost patience, and they began to look at the mechanical soldiers.

But just as they were about to turn their horses around and leave, a scene that they will never forget happened.

One hundred and eighty steel monsters suddenly turned, and the Cossack cavalry who had no time to dodge were directly crushed by the steel monsters.

After the tragic cry, a pool of fleshy mud was exposed under the mechanical monster. At the same time, a fire suddenly appeared in front of the mechanical monster, and the intensive shooting of Da da da... came out.

The Cossack cavalry that came rushing down fell one by one.

Faced with this situation, the Cossack cavalry surrounding the tank became even more anxious, and they slashed the tank frantically, but it was useless.

At this time, the soldiers behind the tank seemed to be tired of the game. There was a series of shooting sounds, and the Cossack cavalry around the tank fell one after another.

The tank continued to advance, but faster, and the charging Cossacks were vulnerable in front of the tank like a baby facing an adult.

The three thousand Cossack cavalry came out quickly, and broke up quickly, and the few hundred Cossack cavalry left fled back to Yelets in panic.
