...
The palace of the Xianbei.
Early the next morning.
Sheffield got out of bed early.
Several concubines were lying on the bed.
The guy looked very satisfied.
Sheffield pushed open the door and went out.
"Take these women out and give them to you as a reward. Now, bring me a few more prettier ones."
"yes……"
"General."
"We just received the news."
"Alexei's entire army was wiped out during the attack on Snow Wolf City."
Sheffield was taken aback upon hearing this.
What does "complete annihilation" mean?
"It is said that apart from 52 people who were captured, all the others died in battle."
Is the news reliable?
"reliable."
Sheffield was furious upon hearing this.
If this news is reliable, it means that of the 20,000 soldiers it brought, 3,000 have already been lost.
Sheffield was a general who had never suffered such a great loss.
"How could such a group of barbarians have such great abilities?"
"Alexei, that idiot, more than 2,000 men and five cannons, all gone just like that."
"How did this idiot even manage to give the orders?"
"General, I heard that Major Alexei was ambushed; otherwise, the losses would not have been so heavy."
Sheffield grabbed the Russian soldier by the collar: "How did you know? Where is that bastard Alexei?"
"This was said by someone who claimed to be from the Nalan tribe."
The Russian soldier pulled a small, square silver wine flask from his pocket.
Sheffield took the small square flask and saw that it was the one Alexei used to hold whiskey.
This drunkard has become severely deformed.
Along with the wine jug was Ochulov's pipe.
"Who exactly is in Snow Wolf City?"
"They were able to kill so many of my people."
"If I don't avenge this, I swear I will not be a human being."
"Let Andre come." Sheffield lit a cigar and took two deep drags.
A wisp of smoke was rising from one end of the cigar.
In the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Andrei approached Sheikhel.
"General, how was your night?" Andrei asked with a smile. "I heard that several of the Emperor's concubines were with you last night."
"I met two princesses last night. They were so pretty and delicate, they were absolutely gorgeous."
As he spoke, Andrei lit his pipe and began to puff away.
Sheffield handed the deformed flask and pipe to Andrei.
“Look at this wine jug and pipe.”
Andrei took the flask and pipe.
The wine jug and pipe are engraved with names.
“These belong to Alexei and Ochulov. How did they end up with you, General?”
"Alexei's troops were ambushed during the attack on Snow Wolf City and suffered heavy losses," Sheffield said unhurriedly. "It is said that the force of more than 2,000 men was almost completely wiped out, with only more than 50 men surviving, and they were all captured."
Andrei could hardly believe his ears.
"As far as I know, this grassland is inhabited by a group of barbarians who ride horses and shoot arrows."
Alexei's team was the elite of the elite.
They also brought five cannons with them this time.
How could these barbarians of the steppes possibly defeat our army?
“How should I know?” Sheffield shrugged, spreading his hands.
"General, if I may be so bold, this is the greatest defeat our army has suffered since entering the grasslands."
"His Majesty the Tsar, if he knew about this, he would surely blame us."
Sheffield nodded.
"Her Majesty the Tsar has always been expanding our territory. If she knew how much damage we have suffered, I really don't know how I would face Her Majesty the Empress."
"General, give me 5,000 soldiers, 20 cannons, and two more Tsar Cannons."
I will make those barbarians in Snow Wolf City pay a heavy price.
Sheffield nodded.
At that moment, a eunuch ran over with a smile.
"General, I have found a few more concubines for you. These concubines have always been His Majesty's favorites. I wonder when Your Majesty will be interested in visiting them."
“Get out…” Sheffield roared. He had no time to care about these women now.
The eunuch, having been rebuffed, quickly ran away dejectedly.
"Who has been occupying Snow Wolf City all this time?"
"It is said to be the Nalan tribe, and the mastermind behind the Nalan tribe is a Xia man named Jiang Tian."
Upon hearing this...
Sheffield cracked his knuckles.
"The Great Xia Dynasty is our ultimate destination in this conquest. Since their people say they will launch the first attack on us, we cannot let them off the hook."
"Andrei, leave 500 people in the royal city, and take the rest with you."
"Take all the artillery with you."
"I will issue the order now, and have our 200,000 troops rush to the Xianbei capital."
This time, we must press on and kill them all in one fell swoop.
Andrei nodded.
"Andrei, you must be careful this time. These barbarians don't seem so easy to deal with."
"Your Excellency, please rest assured, I know how to deal with these barbarians."
