Mining was hard work. Similarly, there were many types of mines. What was produced here was gold.
Everyone knew that gold was a hard currency. No matter what era it was, it was a precious metal that was very valuable. It could be used in many industrial processes and could also be made into jewelry.
The gold in the Yukama Kuangqu was one of the important sources of funding for Russia. Especially in this chaotic era, the value and role of gold were infinitely magnified due to the currency's depreciating value.
Li Zihao, who had rested for a night, looked at the guards at the entrance of the Kuangqu with his binoculars. According to the radar, the so-called princess should be locked up here. It seemed that there were not many Soviets, but he did not know what was going on inside. After reconnaissance, he found the nearest Soviets 'stronghold, which was only ten minutes away from here.
The defending Soviets had set up several machine guns in front of them. This was the firepower on the surface. They did not know if there were any hidden fortresses. If there were any hidden fortresses that suddenly opened fire, the casualties would definitely be much higher.
Fortunately, the system had given him a cannon company. Although there were only six mountain cannons, it was definitely enough in this situation. With enough cannonballs, was he not afraid of not killing those people?
Fortunately, there were many Chinese workers in the Kuangqu, which meant that they could send someone to infiltrate the area.
Originally, Li Zihao wanted to lead the team personally, but Zhang Lin said that he had a fellow villager in the team and the two of them had a good relationship.
"Alright, then be careful. If there's a problem, send a signal flare immediately. I'll immediately fire at the enemy.”
"Okay, big brother, I understand."
"We're all brothers."
Zhang Lin felt that he had followed the right person. Previously, he was a company commander. Now, he was a battalion commander. He had to perform well.
As for where so many people came from, the system could only find an excuse for Li Zihao to let them imagine.
The artillery was adjusting the angle of the cannon. Fortunately, there was a mountain depression to block the wind, otherwise, they would have been frozen by the cold wind.
The Soviets had given up on the plan to capture Li Zihao and his remaining soldiers because the White Russian army had already arrived. They had to stop the enemy's attack.
It was said that the Cossacks were also involved. It seemed that the battle would be very fierce.
Although Li Zihao swore to never eat black bread again, he had no choice but to eat hard black bread in a place where he couldn't cook. There wasn't even hot soup, so he could only drink the cold water in the military kettle.
Fortunately, Li Zihao knew how to dig a smokeless stove and immediately taught the cooks. This way, there was no smoke and no light, so they couldn't be discovered unless they were too close.
With the supplies provided by the system, Li Zihao could finally eat meat. Unfortunately, the supplies were all local, so he could only eat black bread and potatoes. Finally, he could eat mixed soup and fried meatballs.
It was not until the next day that Li Zihao saw the signal flare rise into the air and immediately ordered the artillery to fire.
The six cannons fired at the Soviet sentry tower at the entrance of the Kuangqu. Li Zihao, who was watching with binoculars, could clearly see the curved trajectory of the shells falling, like a white rainbow. Unfortunately, this rainbow was fatal, and ordinary people could not appreciate it.
Although the caliber wasn't big, the cannonball was definitely lethal. Seeing this scene, Li Zihao finally understood why the cannon was known as the God of War. He clearly saw a sentry tower being hit by the cannonball, and several sentries on it were torn into pieces along with the building.
His men had also begun to approach the entrance of the Kuangqu. A machine gun had just opened fire when it was hit by a flying shell and turned into a spare part.
The artillery observers on Li Zihao's side could clearly see the situation on the battlefield from the high ground. Once the enemy's firing point was exposed, the field fortifications that were not strong enough could not withstand the attack of the artillery and were directly destroyed.
The Soviets had already begun to ask for help. The slightly fat garrison captain felt that someone might have come to save the princess or come for the gold. Even the cannons were used. It must be the enemy's main force. His small number was not enough to fill the gap between the enemy's teeth.
"Comrade Lie Fu, the enemy's artillery and offensive are very fierce. We need to evacuate from here.”
"We're in trouble. There are enemy spies in the dungeon and they killed the guards.”
There was an important person in the dungeon, Princess Tasha. She was a Russian princess of great political value. She was the fourth daughter of Tsar Nicholas II, so she was naturally qualified to be a threat to Russia.
After all, in Russia, women could also become female tsars.
"What should we do?"
"Let's retreat first. We can't stop the enemy's attack if we stay here.”This special agent was not stupid. Although it was a pity to lose the princess, the problem was that they had not reported the matter to the higher-ups, so the punishment was naturally not so serious.
"He ran away just like that? This is too straightforward. It seems that the Soviets don't have the backbone I imagined.”
Li Zihao could see that his subordinates had already rushed to the entrance of the mine. The workers were all inside, but his target was not the workers, but the so-called princess.
Tasia did not know which side these Chinese people belonged to, but after seeing the situation outside, she knew that she might have been rescued. Thank God!
Her prayers must have been heard, which was why God sent a knight to save her.
Zhang Lin could not speak Russian, so he could only push her to continue walking. When he realized that she could not move, he simply got someone to make a stretcher and carry her away.
This guy didn't know how to show mercy to women. However, he couldn't be blamed for being wrong. Princess Tasha was now smelly and dressed in rags. Naturally, she would be despised. This was also a way for the princess to protect herself. Otherwise, if she was beautiful, she would definitely end up badly.
"Hurry up and clean up the battlefield. Don't worry about those workers.”If there was no systematic replenishment of soldiers, perhaps Li Zihao would want these Chinese laborers, but he would not think about it now. After all, they were leaning towards Russia. This was purely a matter of faith and class.
When Zhang Lin brought the so-called princess over, Li Zihao was also shocked. The so-called princess was too smelly!
"What's going on? Clean her up. She stinks to death. Is she really a princess?”
Li Zihao was far away from Princess Tasia. His military uniform was different from the others. The princess immediately recognized that he was the commander of this troop. He was good-looking. Moreover, she had studied Chinese and could understand what Li Zihao was saying. Her face turned red.
When the Soviets 'reinforcements arrived, all they saw was a mess and a group of workers hiding.
After interrogating and questioning, it was confirmed that the attackers were a group of Beiyang soldiers. This was very strange. Was there such a large Chinese army nearby?
Was there?
There was indeed a cannon among the remnants of Li Zihao's army. However, the problem was that Li Zihao's remnants did not have any cannons.
It had only been a few days, but he had become so strong. It was impossible.
