An hour later.
The sun dispelled the last wisp of mist.
Li Yuanba looked at the corpses in front of him.
From last night until now.
He has already killed more than 10,000 of the enemy.
The ground was littered with corpses lying haphazardly.
Li Yuanba was not satisfied with this result.
"It's already broad daylight, so open your eyes wide, everyone."
"Make sure you find all the gold and silver jewelry and bring it with you."
Li Yuanba quickly whistled.
Everyone quickly sprang into action.
On one hand, they had to eliminate those who were faking their deaths; on the other hand, they had to prevent those who were pretending to be dead from launching a sneak attack.
In addition, they also had to constantly collect gold and silver jewelry.
...
Inside the military tent of the Ottoman Empire.
As Mudra was falling asleep at night, he was awakened by several cannon shots fired by Li Yuanba.
Murad was utterly shocked when he heard the sound of the Tsar's cannon.
Although his camp was still dozens of miles away from Li Yuanba's ambush site.
But when it's late at night and everyone is quiet.
The sound of Li Yuanba's Tsar Cannon still terrified Mudra.
Mudra quickly got out of bed.
Is it thundering outside?
"Reporting to the General, the sky is clear and there are stars in the sky. It's not thundering."
Mudlai quickly got dressed and walked out of the tent.
He looked up at the blue sky.
"What exactly happened just now? Did you hear that?"
"Reporting to the General, it sounds like cannon fire, but the cannon fire is too loud."
Mudra quickly fell into deep thought.
Reconnaissance soldiers were sent out wave after wave.
So far, Mudra's forces have not encountered any large-scale armies.
This made him keep his guard down.
The same was true for the soldiers of the Ottoman Empire.
They entered the territory of the Rakshasa Kingdom.
They never encountered any significant resistance.
This caused the Ottoman soldiers to lower their guard.
"The sound of cannon fire is coming from the northeast." Murad pointed to the northeast. "Send cavalry over to take a look. Once you spot them, don't make a sound. Report the news to me quietly."
Around noon the next day.
The cavalry charged back.
Two cavalrymen approached Mudra.
"Reporting to the General, we have discovered more than 1,000 cavalrymen in the northeast direction."
"The other side used the Tsar Cannon."
Mudra was instantly stunned when he heard the words "Tsar Cannon".
This guy has been staying in St. Petersburg for the past few years.
He knew that the most powerful cannon in Russia was the Tsar Cannon.
However, this Tsar Cannon was incredibly heavy.
To transport goods from St. Petersburg to such a distant location, it would take months.
They have only been crossing the border between the two countries for five or six days.
How did the other side manage to transport the Tsar Cannon over in such a short time?
Could it be that the Tsar Cannons were always positioned in this area?
"Are you sure you're not seeing things? That really is the Tsar Cannon?"
“General, I think we didn’t misjudge that cannon. It’s six or seven meters long and this thick,” a cavalryman said, gesturing as he spoke.
Mudra recognized the cavalryman's stroke immediately.
This is indeed a Tsar Cannon.
The enemy has already transported the Tsar Cannon to the front lines.
This was simply unbelievable to Mudra.
"You see, there are several Tsar Cannons."
"There was only one Tsar Cannon, and about 1,000 cavalrymen."
"The enemy only has 1,000 people? That makes them easier to deal with." Mudra nodded happily.
"General, these thousand cavalrymen are quite formidable in combat."
"They were wearing gleaming armor and didn't look like Rakshasa cavalry."
"Secondly, we lost at least 10,000 men to these 1,000 cavalrymen."
"What..." Mudra was furious upon hearing this.
"What kind of fighting power can armored cavalry have? How could they possibly wipe out more than 10,000 of our men?"
"You all need to tell me properly what exactly happened."
The two scout cavalrymen recounted everything they had seen.
It's easy to count more than 10,000 cavalry.
The ground was littered with corpses.
The corpses stretched for seven or eight miles.
Moreover, most of them were infantry.
They were still counting the intact corpses.
The number of corpses that were directly blasted to pieces by artillery fire was simply impossible to count.
Mudra fell into deep thought.
Orenburg was the first place they captured.
Mudra planned to head north along Orenburg and then take several places in Ufa.
If it encounters strong resistance in Orenburg, its plan to continue north will fall through.
"Send word to bring Bayezid to me. I have something important to give him," Mudra said to the soldiers around him.
20 minutes later.
Bayezid arrived at the central command tent.
"General, you were looking for me?"
“Come here,” Mudra drew his longsword from his waist and pointed it to a spot northeast of Orenburg.
"Our scout cavalry discovered that there are 1,000 cavalrymen here, and these 1,000 cavalrymen have killed more than 10,000 of our men from last night until this morning."
Upon hearing this, Bayezid flew into a rage.
"A thousand cavalrymen could kill more than ten thousand of our men."
