Chapter 345: Border People and Qing Army(2/2)

At this time, on the Tsarist Russian sailing ship on one side of the river, a strong Cossack man was waving the whip in his hand and severely beating a Tsarist Russian officer. The whip mixed with horsetail mane was struck on the opponent's back, and each whip struck

It's a bloodstain.

"...Seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty!" The Cossack who was in charge of the execution put away his whip, walked behind Bogaevsky and stood at attention: "Colonel, the execution is over."

Bogaevsky, who was having breakfast, wiped the corners of his mouth with a white handkerchief, signaled the orderly to remove the leftovers, put on his three-cornered hat, then stood up and walked to the tortured officer and said: "Because of you

Our stupidity caused us to lose two companies of soldiers! It took half a day to capture a small wooden city. What a waste!"

The surrounding Cossack officers all stood in silence, not daring to express their anger.

"Lieutenant General Suvorov ordered us to attack Heilongjiang City before May 30. But look, we are still hundreds of miles away from Heilongjiang City by water, and there are still seven village fortresses behind us that need to be conquered. You guys

If you are still as lazy as yesterday, you will lose the glory of the Cossack Legion!"

Bogaevsky glanced sternly at the officers on the deck, pointed at the nearby city of Humar and shouted loudly: "I only give you two hours. If you still can't conquer this village, you will all be killed."

Get rid of your job! Become a groom!"

"For Her Majesty the Queen! For the glory of the Cossacks!"

Just as Tsarist Russia was preparing to launch an attack, on the river bank opposite Humar City, a group of unknown Hezhe hunters suddenly launched a sneak attack on the Buryat soldiers on guard on the river bank.

They hid in the grass and shrubs, shouting to attract the attention of the Rakshasa people. Others suddenly appeared and shot long arrows at the intruders with ebony bows. Buryat was caught off guard.

The people fled to the big ship in panic, and the Hezhe people immediately started to chase them. But at this time, there was a dense roar of muskets from the big ship on the river, and the group of Hezhe hunters were beaten to death and wounded everywhere.

"Where did these guys come from?" The officer in charge looked suspicious. These barbarians wanted to attack the fleet with only bows, arrows and spears. They were obviously here to die!

"Woo~~Woo~~"

Suddenly, a long conch whistle floated over the Heilongjiang River, causing the officers and soldiers on the Tsarist Russian fleet to turn their attention to the south...

"Your Excellency, Colonel!" A Cossack officer hurriedly ran to the captain's cabin on the lower floor, knocked on the door and said to Bogaevsky: "Your Excellency, Colonel, please come out and take a look."

Bogaevsky put down the quill in his hand and asked in surprise: "What happened? Who is blowing the conch outside?"

"Colonel, I think you'd better go to the deck and take a look and you'll understand."

When Bogaevsky walked to the deck and saw the unusual scene on the river, he was stunned.

"This...where did they come from?!"

From the horizon of the lower reaches of the Heilongjiang River, hundreds of canoes, fast boats and flat-bottomed boats were seen approaching quickly; and at the mouth of the Humar River on the opposite side, dozens of Daur fishing boats also appeared on the river.

.

"Colonel, I think these people should be tribesmen living in the surrounding area." An officer holding a monocular for observation said and handed the telescope to Bogaevsky.

"Look, their weapons are all bows, arrows and spears. They don't even have matchlocks."

"Hmph! A group of ignorant primitive people!" Bogaevsky put away his telescope and ordered with disdain: "Inform all the soldiers on the ship to prepare for battle! Let us use blood and fire to teach these misbehaviors a lesson.
