Chapter 242 Modern Cavalry

On the grassland, hundreds of cavalry gathered here in the city of the Korqin tribe. The cavalry forces here rose rapidly, and some garrisons distributed to the surrounding areas were all recalled.

The leader of the Korqin Tribe Zaisang put on armor and wore a sword on his waist. He stood on the platform. He watched the various brigades of the Korqin Cavalry Brigade return and felt a little relieved.

"You all want to be careful. These cannons are treasures. If you want to beat Lin Danhan later, you will have to rely on them!" Wu Keshan commanded the artillery to drag out the cannons from the warehouse where the cannons were stored.

These artillery were assigned to the Korqin Cavalry Brigade after the Korqin tribe defected to Chu Yun in order to build modern cavalry. It was said to be the cavalry brigade, but in fact the Korqin tribe already had muskets and cannons, which were completely trained by Grand Duke Carl in accordance with the Austrian Empire cavalry model of Napoleon's era. Perhaps these Korqin cavalry did not realize that they were very different from before they defected to Chu Yun.

"Sir, do you think our artillery can defeat Lin Danhan? Isn't our most trusted companion to the warriors on the grassland our war horses and bows?" asked the knight who carried the artillery.

"These are not for you, so why are you in a hurry? Besides, you don't have the ability to use these artillery yet. Only gunners specially sent from southern Liaoning are qualified to use such valuable things!" Wu Keshan shouted.

In the Korqin Cavalry Brigade, there was a group of artillery officers and excellent gunners sent from southern Liaoning. They assisted the Korqin Cavalry Brigade in establishing a brigade artillery battalion. Only they truly knew how to use artillery and exert the true power of artillery! Therefore, they enjoyed a high status in the Korqin Cavalry Brigade. Even the senior leaders of the Korqin tribe, Zaisang and Wu Keshan, respected them and raised them like uncles. The salary of artillery soldiers is higher than that of ordinary cavalry. There is no way, who said they are scarce talents?

"Go!" Under the leadership of Sun Sheng, the first dragon cavalry brigade of the Refuting Army rushed to the main garrison of the Korqin tribe, and was full of dust.

"Lin Danhan hasn't come here yet, right?" Sun Sheng asked impatiently as soon as he arrived at the Korqin tribe. Due to the long-distance speed, his battle robe was covered with sweat and he had no time to wipe it dry.

"They have not appeared in the territory of our Korchin tribe, but our tribe members have found their traces in the west. If I expected it would be right, the direction they were heading was the Bahrain tribe. I have sent sentinels to the Bahrain tribe, and I believe we will soon know what's going on there." Zaisang said.

"I brought five thousand main forces of the Dragoon Brigade, and there were artillery troops in the rear. I don't know if my artillery arrived quickly or Lin Danhan and his cavalry arrived quickly. How many troops can your Korqin tribe gather?" Sun Sheng asked.

"The seven thousand elite cavalry of our Korqin Brigade have all gathered, and we have established three thousand cavalry in preparation for military service in accordance with the requirements of the Fu Liao Army, as well as more than 10,000 herders who are willing to live and die with our Korqin tribe." Zaisang said.

"The main force of seven thousand cavalry is enough, and the three thousand reserve cavalry and other herders let them stay in the city." Sun Sheng said.

"That's more than 10,000 new forces. Wouldn't they let us fight against Lin Danhan?" Zaisang was a little surprised.

"Not to mention more than 10,000 herdsmen, even 100,000 herdsmen, I dare not let them participate in a battle. They have not undergone professional and cruel training, and they will probably collapse if they lose less than one-twentieth. Not only will they be unable to kill the enemy, but they will also disrupt our formation, which is even greater than the damage caused by the enemy!" Sun Sheng said, "The soldiers are there, but not many. The ancient overlord Xiang Yu could defeat Liu Bang's hundreds of thousands of coalition forces with 20,000 cavalry. In the Battle of Feishui, Xie Xuan defeated Fu Jian's 800,000 army with tens of thousands of elite soldiers. All of them are like this! With more than 10,000 elite soldiers, we are enough to defeat Lin Danhan and the others!"

"Officer Sun Lu really has the courage..." Zaisang wiped the sweat with a sweat towel. He was still a little nervous.

"What's wrong with the old man?" Sun Sheng didn't see Mangus at the elder level of the Korqin tribe, so he asked, "Why didn't I see him?"

"The old man has been suffering from illness recently. I heard that many famous doctors from the Ming Dynasty gathered in southern Liaoning, so I went to southern Liaoning to recuperate. But it's good that if the old man was here, he might have to yell to get on the horse and fight Lin Danhan for 300 rounds, which would be annoying." Zaisang said.

"Sir, the sentry cavalry in front came to report that they had contacted the people of the Bahrain tribe. Their tribe was attacked by Lin Dankhan. The Bahrain tribe was about to withdraw to our tribe, and this is their sentry!" A cavalry sent by Zaisang led the sentry cavalry that had come to contact the Korqin tribe first.

"Are you a member of the Bahrain tribe?" Sun Sheng asked the whistleblower.

"Sir, I am the personal soldier of the leader of the Bahrain tribe. Our tribe was attacked by Lin Danhan and the cavalry in the northern desert. They lost the pasture and food. Please avenge us!" The sentry cavalry of the Bahrain tribe kept coming to inform the Korqin tribe, almost on the verge of exhaustion.

"I understand, you get up first." Sun Sheng helped up the whistle cavalry kneeling on the ground, "Have the main force of your Bahrain tribe been damaged?"

"Our leader saw that the enemy was coming in full force and the number of people was large, so... only a small team was left to restrain them, and the large army was still intact..." The sentry cavalry of the Bahrain tribe said with shame.

This is a bit unspeakable for Mongolian warriors who believe in courage. Retreat without resistance.

"It's good if the main force is not damaged." Sun Sheng didn't care.

Among the Mongolian tribes that defected to the Fu Liao army, the only one who defected to the Fu Liao army was the first to help the Fu Liao army at a critical moment. Bumubutai was transformed into a firearm in the Korqin tribe in southern Liaoning by Chu Yun. He also sent Grand Duke Kar to train here for a period of time, completely treating it as modern cavalry! These Mongolian cavalry that grew up on horseback were combined with modern training and organizational methods. Even if there were no firearms, they were still a brutal mobile force!

Of course, the ammunition of artillery and firearms is controlled in Liaonan and Liaodong, which are heading towards an industrial civilization society. Without ammunition, the artillery and firearms are just a pile of broken copper and iron.

Therefore, the Bahrain tribe, which has not changed much, cannot deal with Lin Dankhan, who has united the Mongolian in the northern part of the Mobei region. It is a blessing to be able to preserve its strength. In the following war, the Bahrain tribe, which was once part of the Chahar tribe, is still a very important force. In particular, they understand the tactics of the Chahar tribe, and even the tactics of the northern part of the Mobei region are very similar!

"How long will it take for the main force and tribe members of the Bahrain tribe to arrive?" Sun Sheng asked.

"It takes less than an hour." said the whistle driver.

"At this speed, Lin Danhan and Mobei Mongolia are about to arrive."
