Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

It must be said that the Cossack cavalry is indeed a cavalry unit that is world-famous and shocked the whole of Europe.

Their fighting will and skills are countless.

Even if they were sneak attacked, they could still fight hard with the White Wolf Army, causing huge casualties to the White Wolf Army.

In the end, Dajie couldn't stand the scene anymore, causing the White Wolf Army to suffer such heavy casualties. It seemed that it was only at this time that he remembered that his White Wolf Army was equipped with a large number of automated weapons.

So, Namu Dajie sent out a guard beside him and told them to use guns to deal with the enemy as much as possible.

As Namudajie's guards, the weapons they are equipped with are different from those of the ordinary White Wolf Army. In addition to having machetes and carbines, they are also equipped with a submachine gun.

This type of submachine gun is specially made. Their rate of fire is relatively slow and their penetration is weaker than the submachine guns used by normal infantry.

The reason is to take into account that when cavalry is fighting, the crowd is relatively dense, and if such high-penetration weapons are used, it is easy to cause accidental injuries.

Therefore, this submachine gun named "Q-10" will only be equipped to cavalry units.

With the addition of these guard cavalry, the battle situation became one-sided.

These cavalrymen hold reins in one hand and submachine guns in the other.

Like strong wind, they rushed towards the enemy, got close to the enemy, then aimed their guns and pulled the trigger on the enemy, and then the Cossacks on the opposite side fell to the ground.

The White Wolf Army who was rescued by them seemed to have thought that he still had a rifle on his back.

These rifles, like the rifles used by infantry, are repeating rifles, but they are shorter than ordinary rifles and have weaker penetrating power.

With the White Wolf Army's extensive use of gunpowder weapons, the Cossacks finally couldn't stand it anymore.

They found that the enemies on the opposite side were not only as brave as themselves, but also had more sophisticated weapons than themselves.

At least, their own weapons cannot fire continuously.

Therefore, in order to avoid huge casualties to the Cossack cavalry, Lieutenant General Androlykov could only order a retreat and join up with the infantry in the rear.

The trumpet for the Cossacks' retreat sounded, and the Cossack cavalry who were fighting the White Wolf Army began to cover alternately and withdraw from the battle.

The soldiers of the White Wolf Army, however, were not willing to give up the opportunity to beat the drowned dog, and directly chased the Cossack cavalry.

The two groups of troops pursued them from the city of Irkutsk to the north of the Angara River, until they were paired with a Rakshasa Empire infantry division that came to support them.

Only then did the White Wolf Army stop.

Looking at the dug trenches, heavy machine gun positions and artillery on the opposite side, Namudajie ordered to stop the pursuit and return to Irkutsk.

As for continuing to attack north? Neither Lin Yi nor Namu Dajie had thought about this.

After all, it was still January, and even the White Wolf Army, which was formed as a prairie people, felt cold.

If we attack further north, no one can bear it. If it weren't for catching the Rakshasa Empire off guard, Lin Yi would have waited until April or May to attack even Irkutsk.

Now that we can capture Irkutsk and control a section of the Trans-Siberian Railway of two to three hundred kilometers, we have achieved our strategic goals.

So after defeating the Cossack cavalry, Namudaj returned to Irkutsk and began to prepare for the winter.

With the Siberian Railway cut off, the offensive on the Twin Cities and Vladivostok sides of the Eastern Front is about to begin.

Appointed by Lin Yi as the commander of the Eastern Front Far East battlefield, he was an older general named Li Jinji, with the rank of general.

He had previously participated in the Annan War between Daxia and Gaul, and the Goryeo War between Daxia and Sakura Country. He is a general who has rich experience and knows how to be flexible.

Under his thin body, he possesses endless strength. His eyes are sharp, and it seems that nothing can destroy his will.

Moreover, he is an imperial general who came from the old era. He has experienced the empire's trough period and also witnessed its rise.

He understands that the empire's current weapons have been updated, so he has the humility to learn how to use the empire's latest weapons.

I had previously considered the importance of the Twin Cities and Vladivostok, and I heard that the Rakshasa people there had built a large number of fortifications and established permanent fortresses.

Lin Yi wanted to go to the front line in person to command the Far East Army.

But as soon as his idea was proposed, it was rejected by everyone including Pan Chengzhang and Zhao Xu.

And the reason was very simple. He told Lin Yi directly that he was now not only the commander of the Longxiang Army, but also the commander of all the empire's legions.

He cannot abandon other battlefields in the empire just because of the Far East. The empire has countless generals, so there is no need to just let Lin Yi go to the front line.

Lin Yi listened to the suggestions of Pan Chengzhang and Zhao Xu, and finally decided not to go to the Twin Cities.

But if he doesn't go, then who should be chosen to command the entire Far East battlefield?

Zhang Yanyu?

Although he was born as a horse bandit, after experiencing Lin Yi's seasoning and training in the martial arts hall, he is now a qualified commander.

But this time, not only the Longxiang Army participated in the Far East battlefield, but also the Jingying Camp, the garrison of the three provinces and the Goryeo Army. The total number of people involved exceeded [-].

Lin Yi was worried about leaving so many people to Zhang Yanyu.

Of course, this uneasiness is not because of the worry that Zhang Yanyu will rebel against the empire. Considering the current environment of the empire, as long as they are not stupid, no one will think of betrayal.

The main reason is that Zhang Yanyu has no experience in commanding hundreds of thousands of people in combat, and his personal reputation is not enough to support him in commanding others.

On the battlefield, things often change rapidly, requiring frontline commanders to make temporary decisions and make decisions. It is impossible to report everything to the military headquarters and let the military headquarters make decisions.

It is precisely because of this that Lin Yi wants to go to the Far East battlefield to command the army and attack the Twin Cities and Vladivostok.

Since Zhang Yanyu can't do it, then Sun Han can't do it either.

He was the commander of the Beijing camp and had enough fame, but Lin Yi was not optimistic about his ability.

To be honest, as the commander of the Beijing Camp, his abilities can be put aside. The most important thing for his position is loyalty to the empire.

Therefore, whether it was Lin Yi, Pan Chengzhang, or even Sun Han himself vetoed Sun Han's decision to go.

In the end, it was Pan Chengzhang who recommended Li Jinji.

As a veteran general who participated in all the empire's foreign wars from the 70s to the 90s, his reputation and experience are sufficient.

Although Li Jinji is now in his 60s and almost 70, he is still in good health both physically and mentally.

Asking him to command the Far East Army, both Pan Chengzhang and Zhao Xu said it was feasible.

But Lin Yi knew little about him, so before finally confirming Li Jinji as the commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Army, Lin Yi planned to meet him first.

And when Lin Yi and Li Jinji closed the door and chatted for an afternoon, Lin Yi decisively supported Li Jinji as the commander-in-chief of the Far Eastern Army.
