191 Each has a plan

On the Ukrainian grassland, two waves of tens of thousands of people were advancing towards each other.

Zaporo Khmelnikki, the founder of the United Cossack Emirates, the successor of Bogdan Khmelnikki, who claimed to be the leader of all Ukrainians, had the dream of reappearing his father's glory. He gathered all the Cossack tribe warriors who supported him and the direct Cossack chief guards, who wanted to take advantage of the division and destruction of the Polish and Lithuanian Commonwealth.

At this time, the former Polish Lithuanian nobles placed in Ukraine had already lost their potential for war.

They can only rely on their own strength and will never get the support of other nobles. In Zaporo's eyes, this is the opportunity for Cossack to take off.

Of course, Zapolo never expected that he could seize food from the Han Empire. Those Polish castles were nothing to the Han army with artillery.

But for the Cossacks who had no artillery and were not well equipped, they could only use their lives to fill in, which was a totally unpaid deal.

This is also the founding of the United Cossack United Emirates for so many years, and even the older generation has begun to wither (the average age of human beings in this era is very low), and it still has not occupied all of Ukraine.

You should know that the Polish and Lithuanian Commonwealth never put its real power into Ukraine to annihilate the United Cossack Emirates, and has been fighting bloody battles with the powerful Swedish dwarves.

This time, Zaporo just gathered his troops and prepared to plunder the towns and villages controlled by the Polish nobles in the Ukrainian region, which had not been ruled by the Han army.

This time, Zapolo brought great wealth and increased his reputation among the Cossack tribe.

Since Zaporo's father was killed, the tribal chiefs of the United Cossack Emirates have gradually become disunited. By the time Zaporo inherited his father's inheritance, nearly half of the Cossack tribal chiefs no longer obeyed his orders.

The endless war with the Polish and Lithuanian Commonwealth made the chiefs of the Cossack tribe who were greedy for pleasure and the division of Tsarist Russia also put the Cossack leadership status of Zaporo, the lineage, in jeopardy.

Therefore, Zaporo needs to use war and plunder to regain power in the United Emirates!

Plundering is a tradition of the Cossacks. If Zapolo could really plunder a large amount of wealth from the Poles, it would definitely make those Cossack tribes look at them with admiration. Even their tribe chiefs could not organize the collective will of a large number of ordinary Cossack warriors.

The Cossacks worship heroes, and the standard for defining heroes among the Cossacks is to lead them to continuously plunder a large amount of wealth.

It can be said that the Cossacks, composed of fugitive slaves from different ethnic groups, were a naked robber nation. Although they had their own culture, they did not have any universal moral standards.

Originally, Zapolo thought his operation would cause the Polish nobles who had lost their support and unified command to hide in the solid castle tremblingly, so that he could plunder those towns with weak city defenses and villages with no city defenses at all.

However, Zaporo now had to face the last coalition of Polish nobles.

Although Zaporo did not understand why these Polish nobles, who had obviously fewer troops than their own, dared to lead their troops out to fight to the decisive battle, and even let go of the contradictions between the Polish nobles to fight the enemy together.

But this did not prevent Zaporo from destroying them all.

The big talk has been said, and the army has gathered and opened. If you are afraid at this time, Zaporo knows that the few remaining prestige will be lost!

What's more, the Polish noble coalition on the opposite side had only more than 10,000 people.

But his Cossack troops had more than 20,000 people!

With double the strength of his troops, if he avoids the war, the remaining Cossack tribes will inevitably doubt his command ability, and the remaining shade left by his father will completely dissipate.

Therefore, Zaporo must win the battle, and even his heart inspired more ambitions.

If the main force of the Polish nobles could be eliminated in the field, he could plunder not only those towns and villages, but also the castles containing all the wealth of the Polish nobles!

By then, even if he turned the United Cossack Emirates into a dictatorial country, he would not have dreamed!

As for the upcoming threat from the Han army, Zapolo did not take it seriously at all.

He had made up his mind that when the Han army arrived, he would take the initiative to unite with Tsarist Russia, and then lead all the Cossacks to fight guerrilla warfare with the Han army!

At first, his father relied on guerrilla tactics to defeat the army of the Polish and Lithuanian Federation many times, thus allowing the Cossack uprising to succeed and even establish his own country.

Zapolo, who had never seen the Han army, believed that there would be no big difference between the Han army and the Polish army.

Of course, Zapolo is not as long as he thought. His goal at this time is to defeat the Polish noble coalition in front of him!

As the Cossack army was approaching, the great nobles in the Polish coalition on the other side were gathering together to discuss.

"This army should be everything that the guy Zaporo can gather. As long as we destroy them, we can go deep into the Kiev area to plunder.

Anyway, after the Han army arrived, these soldiers would be incorporated by the Han emperor, so there is no need to care about the losses of the army soldiers.

After winning, the wealth we plunder is our own.

The Han emperor was quite generous to the surrendered nobles. He would not ask for one if it was a gold coin in our pockets."

"But if we do this, the Kiev region will inevitably be corrupt. Will it be hostile to the Han emperor?"

"What are you afraid of?

The Kiev region is all the territory of the United Emirates of the Cossacks, and erosion is also the affairs of the Cossacks. What's more, we leave after we plunder, and the Cossacks will definitely take over again.

With the ignorance and barbarity of the Cossacks, there will inevitably be a war with the Han people. As long as the two sides fight, the corruption in the Kiev region will not be traced to us.

The Han army is invincible. Do you mean that you don’t want to make a big fortune before losing your military power?

Look at the Polish nobles who have already surrendered, their current living standards are entirely based on previous accumulations. The little rights and land retained by the Han people can only maintain basic expenses.

And if you have no soldiers in your hands, you will never be able to get rich in the future.”

"Yes, this battle is related to everyone's future glory and wealth. If you go to Han people in the future, you will not rely on the sword in your hand, but the gold coins in your pocket!

Those Han officials also love money.”

“Hahaha~~~”
