Lebed, standing on the steps, watched the Cossacks sing songs and swagger through the market, and watched their energetic and cheerful faces, as if there was money to pick up on the road ahead.

They have weaknesses that are difficult to restrain and have no discipline, but they have good mobility, strong fighting will and elite individual qualities to make up for it. Hope this action will be blessed by God, he couldn't help but drew a cross.

The Dnieper Cossack Yadaman Bogakov Paustovsky walked to him and handed him a flat jar. Lebed took a look. The jar was marked with squares, which was the name of the porcelain country. Mu Liquor --- Porcelain country controlled Egypt, and rum in large barrels was transported by sea ships from Southeast Asia, and then canned and distributed in Egypt. The smuggling was strong, and even Russia was also profitable.

Porcelain merchants are very sincere. There is no water seepage in the wine jar, and then it is sealed. It is clear at a glance whether it has been opened or not, which guarantees the quality. All the furs love to drink.

He unscrewed the lid, and the rich smell of wine came out. He touched Bogakov, who was also holding a flat jar, and drank.

"This time I'm going to fight China, I'm afraid it's not so easy to fight!" After drinking a few mouthfuls, he panted and said to Bogakov.

Lebed and Bogakov are acquaintances, and they have repeatedly used his power to strike at the enemy, so naturally they have to give him some attention.

"The Porcelain Kingdom captured the two provinces of the Ottomans, and their sultans were not taken down. We want to deal with them, I'm afraid there will be trouble!" Lebed warned.

He dare not say this publicly, and can only say it to people close to him.

"We can't even beat the Crimeans... we are in trouble!" Bogakov asked muffledly while drinking, his face darkened.

The Crimean Khanate entrenched on the Black Sea is a young man from the Ottoman Empire. Even such a role played well with Lao Maozi. Lao Maozi did not have the upper hand at all. If the Ottomans took action, it would be worse.

Lao Maozi has a lot of problems. If he wants to rise up, he will have to wait for Peter the Great to carry out Westernization reforms in a few decades. However, according to the current historical trend, the Chinese are close to reaching Europe. Whether there is Peter the Great or not is still a question.

"It doesn't matter, since your majesty has the purpose, we must carry it out!" Lebedde said dumbly.

He knew to a certain extent that he was thrown out by the rich and powerful. They were well informed and knew that the porcelain country was not easy to provoke. They dispatched Lebede first, and the rich and powerful were the ones who won the credit. De's fault!

"Fight, maybe China is not the opponent of our Cossack warriors!" Bogakov said optimistically.

"I hope so!" Lebede said helplessly.

But neither he nor Bogakov imagined that the Porcelain Army was so powerful!

...

After the Cossack horse team received the command from the commander, it was like a rushing water, all the way to the east.

The Kazan Cossacks were originally arranged as the vanguard, but they still ran behind. Several Cossack teams from other tribes rushed to the front day and night.

They carry less supplies, and if they are left behind, they won't even have to eat the scum.

Lao Maozi’s military system is indeed problematic. There are very few supplies. The regular army is a little better, but it’s not much better. For example, General Lebed, who presided over this war, didn’t have any luggage, and he relied on Bogako for his food. Of course, Bogakov did not suffer. Lebed had the government to pay for it.

Cossacks rely entirely on self-financing, or hunting or grabbing, so not nervous.

This road used to be Russia’s own land. It was not easy to rob publicly. People in the towns and villages passing by took out good guns and guarded them like thieves. Everywhere they went, they closed their doors and closed their homes.

The Cossacks stole or took if they could not get it. They swept away all the poultry they encountered along the road. They took away the chickens, ducks, and geese in spite of the cries of the village women. The wheat on the road was still immature. Those with ears were also cut away. If the corn grown in some places has no grains, then the tender stems should be chopped off and chewed to eat. The ones that pierce the throat are not afraid.

This area is extremely desolate, and there are not many people. As soon as you leave the villages and towns, you are in the wild. A few steps on both sides of the road, there are dense forests---primitive forests, which are homes for bears, wild cats, goats, and elk. If you have the patience to look for it, you will definitely have something to gain. The Cossacks were busy rushing, but soon, hunting was organized.

After being dispatched for three days, the cavalry had already run out of food. The young men tightened their belts, with red eyes, searching for food that could be found on the road or salivating their faces to eat a meal in another tribe to deal with the past.

Generally speaking, the poorer the Cossacks go faster and faster, while the richer Cossacks have carts, which are piled up with flour, salted fish and dried meat, as well as shochu and tobacco. Some tribes are very large. They even brought a big samovar cart to boil water to make tea when the camp stopped. They didn't care about the trophies that might be taken away by others.

Along the way, they vigorously sang "the hostess of the restaurant---people---less wine, less shochu, and less honey..." Or "put aside misfortune and sorrow, and will drink." And fun... knight, be brave, knight...",

Some people are blowing and pulling and playing, the sound of musical instruments is constant, and some people are patronizing and smoking, and there are always Cossacks who fall off the horse drunk and drunk on the open cart.

The heat, dust, alluvial gravel and deserted forests along the road, nests of wild beasts, and the vast Siberian roads stretch ahead, seemingly endless.

The Cossacks dispatched 20,000 people. The team was winding for dozens of miles. No one was in charge of order and no one to agitate. There was no need to talk more about the war. Even if the road ahead and the dangers were great, the old Maozi was still very persistent in moving forward. It is not wrong to say that it is a "battle nation".

From the city of Tomsk to Minusinsk on the Yenisei River over eight hundred miles, the Cossacks reached the Yenisei River at a speed of a hundred miles a day and eight days.

Yenisei!

It seems that a big river flowing in the green forest of jade belt originated in Outer Mongolia. It is the largest river in Russia. It is the three major Siberian rivers that flow into the Arctic Ocean along with the Ob and Lena rivers. Its basin covers most of central Siberia. Calculated with the Angara River as its source, the total length is 5539 kilometers, and the fifth largest river in the world. Its upstream flow is turbulent and the downstream is gentle, and the water temperature is about 14-19 degrees.

It can be said that the porcelain country is bounded by the Yenisei River and cut off the old Siberia by two-thirds. That hurts. Tsar Alexei ordered the Cossacks to be dispatched to teach the porcelain country a lesson!
