The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Chapter 516: Scouting in person

In the end, Cheechen, the peasant in Vidava, still stood on the side of the priest for the harmony and stability of the mercenary group. Pidro had to step back, and he agreed to let the farmers still serve themselves according to the practice of working for the lord one day a week. This made Chechen very happy, because every meal between Uncle Pidro and Father Spasokukotsky was finally settled. To this end, Cheer Chen gave his uncle a big hug.

Although the arrival of Uncle Pidro and the mercenary group soldiers of the two squadrons eased Cheerchen’s dilemma due to insufficient troops, there is still a problem that has been plagued by Cheerchen, and that is the information about the Kalmyk people. Cheerchen is Little has been known. The only thing Cheerchen learned from Patriarch Isaac was that these pieces of information were fragmentary and fragmented.

The Kalmyks obviously have strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities. The scouts sent from Azov have either gone without return, or were discovered midway and had to retreat. This made Cheor Chen extremely worried. Because the most terrible enemy is not the most powerful enemy but the enemy you don't understand.

In desperation, Cheerchen prepared to go out on his own, pretending to be a caravan and heading to Cherkessk to explore the reality.

In the warehouse in Azov, Cheerchen, wearing a fur coat and a bearskin hat, asked Ingrid, "Ingrid, do you think we should bring some fur to Cherkessk?"

At this time, Ingrid, who was also dressed as a businessman, smiled at Cheerchen: "Head, you are a layman. Only the Cossacks and the merchants like fur, and the fur from the nomads themselves can't be used up, so what? It will be rare for us to bring it. If you really take your fur to trade, it will fall into the eyes of the caring people, and you will know at a glance that you are a fake businessman. We should bring more salt and cloth."

Hearing what Ingrid said, Cheerchen smirked twice. He was really a layman who asked this question.

At this moment, Fatima's figure appeared at the door of the warehouse.

"Head," Fatima asked Cheerchen dissatisfied when he saw Chechen, "Why don't you take me with you to Cherkessk for such a dangerous thing?"

Cheerchen had thought it was hiding from Fatima, but he didn't expect to let her know. So Cheerchen apologized: "Fatima, it's not that I want to hide from you, but we are not going to fight and kill this time, but to do business. And I think you are not in good health recently, and you are always dizzy. End, so you should stay in Azov."

After listening to Cheerchen's words, Fatima lowered her head subconsciously. But she quickly lifted it up again, and said in a firm voice: "No, Cheorchen. I still want to go with you."

Fatima seldom calls Cheorchen by name directly, but if she does, it means that she is extremely firm and unchangeable in requesting Cheorchen.

Sure enough, after Cheerchen and Ingrid's several persuasion, Fatima still insisted on going with Cheerchen, but in desperation, Cheerchen had to agree.

So Cheerchen took Fatima, Ingrid and twenty guards and escorted seven wagons made of wicker towards Cherkessk.

Just after crossing the river, they met Kalmyk cavalry patrolling the grassland. A small group of Kalmyk cavalry surrounded Cheerchen and the others, chanting their identities.

Ingrid simply bent over to salute and told them that she was a Swedish caravan returning from business in Central Asia, and she was carrying salt and cloth in her car.

The two Kalmyk cavalry, who looked like the leader, looked at each other, and they told Ingrid that Kalmyktaiji Ayuqi was stationed here, and that the cargo the caravan brought was exactly what they needed.

"That's great, we'll go deal with you." Ingrid said.

A leader of the Kalmyk cavalry escorted the caravan with ten cavalry. Although it is an escort, it is actually no different from an escort. And Chechen also discovered that these Kalmyk cavalry have always maintained extremely high vigilance. The distance they keep with the caravan is just the distance where the bow and arrow can exert their power the most. And once they found any changes in the caravan, a wave of feather arrows could cause their own great casualties.

After another morning's journey, Cheerchen and the others finally arrived at the Kalmyk camp.

The Kalmyk camp was not located in the city of Cherkessk. This camp is located on a high slope. According to Chechen's memory, it should be about five miles away from Circassic. And this high **** can be said to be the only commanding height nearby. Standing at the highest point, any wind and grass nearby can be seen unobstructed.

Kalmyks were grazing cattle, sheep and horses around Gaopo. The guys with horse poles in their hands saw Cheerchen and the others passing by, and they all looked at them with curious eyes.

A hundred steps away from the camp, the leader of the Kalmyk cavalry who "escorted" Cheorchen and others ordered Cheorchen and the others to stop, and then went in by himself.

With this opportunity, Cheerchen carefully observed the Kalmyk camp.

There are no walls or fences in this camp. There are about a thousand tents inside ~ www.wuxiamtl.com~ These tents are now full of soldiers, and only a glance can see that there are no fewer than hundreds of people outside. The entire camp is estimated There are thousands of people. These Kalmyks have strange hairstyles and braids hanging on either side of their ears. They are not tall, but they are very stocky. Several bare-breasted Kalmyks were wiping their bodies with water, and the bronzed skin shone with a metallic color in the sunlight.

After a while, the Kalmyk cavalry leader wore a brown-haired white woman in an animal skin coat.

"Prijit, these people say they are from your hometown." The leader of the Kalmyk cavalry said to the woman named Prijit.

your hometown? Swedish woman!

Chechen did not expect to meet the Swedes in Cherkessk, which is thousands of miles away from Sweden. At this time, he was really fortunate to have brought Ingrid, otherwise he would probably wear it now.

And when Ingrid heard that the woman in front of him was her compatriot, her face was filled with a cheerful smile.

"Hello, are you also Swedish?" Ingrid stepped forward and said to Prigit.

Hearing the language of the homeland, Prigitt couldn't believe it at first, then she covered her mouth and wept with joy.

"Yes, I am." Prigitt said. Prigitt's stuttering in Swedish is obviously because it hasn't been used for too long.

Then Ingrid and Prigitt talked in Swedish.

And the leader of the Kalmyk cavalry saw that Ingrid was indeed the Swede did not lie to him, and gradually relaxed his vigilance. He stepped aside and let the two women talk, but Cheerchen's eyes did not look that way. Deep hostility.

That said, it took a long time, and from Ingrid, Cheerchen also learned about the tragic experience of this Swedish woman named Prigit.
