"Our lord already knows the news."
"That's good."
...
On the city wall of Snow Wolf City.
Jiang Tian looked into the city through binoculars.
The people in the city recovered from their grief in just a few days.
These people rebuilt their houses. Although they had suffered heavy losses, they still had to go on with their lives as usual.
Dwelling on grief will not do any good.
Jiang Tian held a telescope and looked into the distance.
Li Jing and Li Yuanba stood beside him.
"Li Jing, what do you think of these Russians?"
“Aside from their muskets, which are slightly more advanced, they have practically nothing else,” Li Jing said without hesitation. “My lord, I’ve seen their musket formations, and they seem pretty useless.”
"That's because our guns fire faster, have a longer range, and are more accurate than theirs."
"Otherwise, we might suffer greater losses."
Li Yuanba: "My lord, there's no need to boost the morale of others and diminish our own."
Before my lord even entered the city, I had already stormed it.
These Rakshasa people are useless except for being tall and strong.
"If I smash their brains down with this hammer, they'll have their brains splattered."
Everyone laughed when they heard that.
“Li Jing,” Jiang Tian handed over the binoculars.
The vast snowfield stretches as far as the eye can see.
Occasionally, one can see the tents of some herders on the snow-covered plains.
“You guarded 16 kingdoms on the grasslands, and I had no worries about you at all.”
"Does my lord now doubt my abilities?"
Jiang Tian nodded: "I'm not doubting your abilities. Ever since I heard from the Russian soldiers that they have 20,000 soldiers in the capital and another 50,000 troops, who are heading towards the Xianbei capital."
This demonstrates that their army was large in number.
This might be a tough battle for us.
"Whenever my lord wishes to launch a war, I will be at the forefront."
Li Jing patted his chest as he said this: "To be honest, my lord, I don't even consider these blond-haired, blue-eyed Russians a threat."
Such was the magnanimity of the people of the Tang Dynasty.
In the eyes of the people of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty was a celestial empire.
The Tang Dynasty was a heavenly kingdom where all things came together.
Russians, Europeans, Kunlun slaves... these were far inferior to themselves in the eyes of the Tang people.
“These Rakshasa people have been wiped out. I estimate that they will send a group of people to avenge them within a few days.”
"The garrison on the city wall should be prepared."
“I understand…” Nalan Jingyu quickly and excitedly replied.
In the past, he would have been somewhat worried.
The situation is completely different now. Jiang Tian is right in front of them, and he's even brought two cannons with him.
Most importantly, Jiang Tian has more than 1,000 people.
These 1,000-plus people are all elite soldiers.
“Benefactors, if they come, we can avenge our fallen brothers.”
“They killed more than 6,000 of our people and wounded more than 10,000. We cannot swallow this insult.”
Jiang Tian: "Nalan Jingyu, send your men out to scout. They can't stay in the city forever."
If the other party is cunning and treacherous, you could easily be surrounded and captured.
“My benefactor is right,” Nalan Jingyu whistled.
Dozens of cavalrymen charged up the city wall.
"Send out scout cavalry to the northeast. Once they discover any activity by the Russians, report back immediately."
"yes……"
"Go..."
Dozens of scout cavalrymen quickly rushed down from the city wall.
And at this very moment.
Princess Hanxiang's white falcon also kept circling in the sky.
Once there is any movement, the white falcon will definitely send a message back.
"Keep a close eye on that white eagle in the sky at all times, and report to me immediately if anything happens."
After Jiang Tian finished speaking, he walked down the city wall without looking back.
Nalan Jingyu caught up with her.
"My benefactor, I have a request."
"Speak..."
Nalan Jingyu handed over a musket, which belonged to the Russian soldiers who had died in the city.
"We seized more than 1,000 in total."
"When we were defending the city, we discovered that these guns were extremely powerful, and many of our warriors died because of these weapons."
"My benefactor, I've been fiddling with this gun for ages, but it hasn't fired. Can you teach me how to fire it?" Jiang Tian took the gun and examined it carefully.
This is the oldest type of gun.
With this gun, one can basically determine the level of technology that the Russian Kingdom has reached.
Jiang Tian's gun was more than two generations ahead of this type of flintlock musket.
Jiang Tian examined the gun more closely and realized that it couldn't really be called a flintlock gun.
This gun should be a matchlock gun.
"Besides these things, do you have anything else?"
Nalan Jingyu waved to the warriors of the Nalan tribe behind her.
These warriors from the Nalan tribe were carrying several cow horn tubes.
Jiang Tian understood at a glance: the horn-shaped bucket contained bullets and gunpowder.
He opened the ox horn tube.
However, the ox horn tube was already empty.
They were able to extract some black powder, albeit barely.
Jiang Tian poured the black powder into the flintlock gun, took out an iron skewer, and poked it in a few times.
After compacting it, a steel ball was inserted inside.
After everything is ready, attach the fire rope.
Jiang Tian held the gun up, aiming it at a large tree in the distance.
