Preposition
"A covered wagon with two oxen yoked was slowly going in the steppe."
Does it sound alright? Or how should I remake it? What preposition should I use with the word "steppe" in this case? (steppe is a plain overgrown with short grass in Russia, Kazakhstan etc.)

If a steppe is like a plain, it is likely more appropriate to use "across," "on to," or "through."
"A covered wagon with two oxen yoked was slowly going across the steppe."
"A covered wagon with two oxen yoked was slowly going across the steppe."
