"A soldier is to win with a strange victory and to match with the right combination." Nie Shicheng next to him said, bowing to Yiketang and Ayi, "Your Majesty, you have an idea under the military gate. Please see it according to the military gate." As he said that, Nie Shicheng pointed at the border situation chart with a horse whip hanging on the wall.

Everyone's eyes followed him.

"The enemy has accumulated nearly 10,000 people in Hailan Bashes. There are still lumps of soil on the river bank. If we can't get over it, we can't rush forward. We have to make a good move." Before Nie Shicheng finished speaking, a man next to him shouted in a rough voice: "What's the way? You fly over from the sky?!"

When he turned around, he saw that the general General Lian Shun, with a thick beard, looked at him with a strange look. When everyone was knocking on him, his face turned red and he became anxious, and bowed: "I beg the emperor to issue an order, let's rush over! There are so many people, and the fortress of the Russians didn't have time to shoot. He would definitely be able to seize Jiang Yan. If we attack Hailanpao at that time, we would drown him by relying on people!"

"Random!" Iketang probably felt that this subordinate was embarrassed by him, and shouted, "Get back!", turned to me and Nie Junmen and bowed, "I laughed, Lian Shun is a mess, brave, but lacks stubbornness. Emperor, what Nie Junmen said is reasonable, we have to think of a way to get around these lumps of earth. We also thought about going around before, but the Russians built fifty or sixty of them in one breath. If they want to go around, they had to go around a long way. That's why I came up with the Oroqen tribe's native method, and walk under the water through the water."

"How far should I go?" Nie Shicheng inserted it and asked, "Yi Junmen, the Russians suffered a loss under the water. I guess they were prepared for this method. This method cannot be used anymore. Even if it is used for medicine, it cannot be used on a large scale. Besides, the Oroqen tribe may not have so much water. It is better to go by according to the meaning of the flag." Xiang Yiketang smiled apologetically and said, "We are all soldiers, and we don't have so many polite words. We have no intention of disrespect to the military. We just talk about it from the situation of the war. Please forgive me."

Originally, when he interrupted his words, Yiketang was a little stunned, but Nie Shicheng was only half a smaller official than him, and he was also a close minister of the emperor, so it was not easy for the attack for a while, so he just stood there and watched Nie Shicheng speak.

Now that he heard Nie Shicheng's soft apology, he was not a stubborn person, so he immediately shook his hand and smiled.

"Thank you for the large number of military gates. According to the meaning of the following sign, your people in military gates should not move. This roundabout task—" said, turning to face me and bowing his head and simply saying, "Please give it to the Dragon Flag Army!"

"No! This is my Heilongjiang business, of course I will do it!" Iketang Agan is behind? He is also fighting for the task now.

After listening for a long time, I felt a little opinionated, but I knew that war was not just a joke. With my little knowledge of enthusiasts, if I command things indiscriminately, I might have a big mess. At that time, Emperor Guangxu was in charge of the battle, but he would be in a mess. That would be too ugly.

Moreover, the British were also watching this war. I wondered if the UK was like this during the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. The position that originally supported China also took a sharp turn for the worse with the changes in the war situation and finally joined forces with Japan.

Thinking of this, he suppressed his eagerness to try and stood up and said, "What you said makes sense, but I listened to it, what Nie Shicheng said was the right way. Iketang, let alone whether the Oroqen tribe has so much water, even if there is, if the enemy is really prepared, so many people will just make dumplings for people as soon as they cross the river. That would be bad? How to fight, you will discuss it and do it. I can't always supervise the formation here and always go back to Beijing. Before that, if you can take Hailan Bag, I will give you two viscounts!"

The two men's faces were red.

I laughed and said, "Don't be happy for now. The Dragon Flag Army is my personal army. Nie Shicheng, it is the first time you have brought these people to fight a big battle. You proposed to go around, where to go, and after going around, all within the enemy's territory, what to do if you replenish supplies, what to do when encountering the enemy? How can you hide in your team of more than 10,000 people, how to contact the rear, these are all things. I am not an expert in fighting, and there are so many questions that can be thought of, so I am not supporting you for nothing, I want to make a bet with you."

"But bet on the emperor! I bet with my life!" Nie Shicheng said with a strong and powerful voice.

I spat at him and said, "No hope!" and smiled and said, "The ancients said that the so-called "Wen's advice to death, and Wu's battle to death are all nonsense. Wen's advice to death is to die when he encounters a foolish monarch. Wu's battle to death is to die when he is to die when he is to die when he is to die when he is to die when he is to die. Listen to me, I don't hear the news that you have sacrificed your country for your own sacrifice or heroic death. That means we have defeated the war! I want you to live, report your military achievements to me, and bring me the victory back to me!"

"Zhi!(Yes!)"

"What I want to bet on you is the command of this war." He looked up at Yiketang and said, "Nie Shicheng, you want to detour. The Dragon Flag Army is your command. You will take the Dragon Flag Army around. Before I return to the palace on March 15th, whoever takes Hailanpao will be added to the general of the border! Yiketang and you cooperate with it with all your strength, this is external, you cannot have any selfish intentions. I am ugly in front of you. If there is internal friction, I will definitely kill you!"

"Well, another." I felt my words were a bit ugly, and then said: "You have to keep a thought. This trip was not for nothing. I want to fight for decades and hundreds of years of peace in Liaodong like the Saint-Grand did back then. So don't think it's enough to keep it. It's winter now. The Russians cannot get any supplements from Europe at this time. In a word, you are closing the door and fighting dogs. If you just want to keep peace, I don't think you have made contributions! Tell you that I have already given the will to Changshun. My highest goal is to eat Vladivostok! If anyone defeats Vladivostok, I will be the Duke of him!"

Both of them bowed to accept the order. I was also hesitating in my heart. Although this was certainly a way to motivate the soldiers, it was really possible to cause internal friction, such as not helping each other.

Thinking of it, he added, "Don't pass on this bet, just know it in this tent. Yiketang, your troops are not allowed to move easily, to cover Nie Shicheng's surprise army. You can go and discuss how to join forces and attack the city." After saying that, he walked out and waved his hand, "Let that Huo Jiner come to the camp to see me."

As soon as I left the tent, the cold wind blew up against me, mixed with snow balls and hit me. A small piece of snow hit my neck. It was really painful. I crawled into my clothes along the collar, and it was so harsh that I was cold. I stopped, looked at the white earth, and digested the bone-filled cold air.

The end of the north is still white, and from time to time, one or two cannons and sporadic gunshots come from afar, indicating that this is not a peaceful era.

I shook my head and said to Kou Lian beside me: "Go to send an order to the third battalion of the Xiaoqi Camp, and prepare to pull the camp back to the palace. The spring examination in Beijing is about to open, and I can't stay here for a long time."

Kou Liancai took the order and went first, so I walked back to the camp slowly. While thinking about the changes in the world once China and Russia go to war. No matter what the Japanese seem to be on the side of the Russians, he will definitely not be interested in helping the Russians. He has his own plans.

Those European countries will definitely not support the Russians. If the Russians win, they will not benefit them, but if they defeat them, they will benefit them. The polar bears will focus more on the East, rather than just thinking about it in Europe, the Balkans, and the Black Sea.

However, the British support was too little. Apart from the promise of the Joint Fleet, they were all verbally good and had nothing real. The benefits of destroying Russia's power in the Far East were obvious to Britain. In addition to Russia, France could also slightly threaten the interests of Britain in China. Is the British playing a bigger game? Is it a little confused about the British's plans?

The most important thing at the moment is to beware of the Japanese. Japanese are grandsons in person and stabbing them in the back again and again. In fact, their seemingly simple strategy has been successful repeatedly. I really want to sigh that our ancestors’ skill in raising tigers is really amazing.

While thinking, the eunuch Wang Changtai beside him reminded: "Your Majesty, there is ice in front of you!"

In a daze, I stopped and looked at the white ice surface in front of me, fucked and said, "Thank you, otherwise I would have to throw somersaults." After saying that, I looked at the eunuch who I didn't know very well, and greeted, "Where are you from? How many years have you been in the palace?"

"Reply to the emperor, I am a native of Baoding Mansion. This year is the eighth year." Wang Changtai replied nervously. I shook my body, as if this could drive away the cold. I smiled and calmed him down. I walked into the palace converted from the government office, and said as I walked: "Is it a habit of staying in the palace? Is Eunuch De easier to get along with than Eunuch Li before?"

Wang Changtai stammered for a few words, nodded and said, "All are pretty good."

I was also a gossip, but I didn't mean to ask deeply. Xiao Dezi might not be much better than Li Lianying. I changed my clothes and sat down, and asked him to go to Xuanhuo Jiner to meet him.

Huo Jin'er is a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old. She is wearing a cloak of roe deer skin and a furry inner robe made of skins from some unknown animal. Her face is still filled with worries. When she saw me, she still knelt down and kowtowed to greet Feng Xiang, deputy governor of Aihui, who was apologizing for her.

I shook my hand and signaled to speak, asking Wang Changtai to bring me a seat for tea, staring at Huo Jiner's thin face and said, "Are you Huo Jiner? Can you speak Chinese?"

"Can speak." Huo Jin'er said in awkward Chinese: "I learned to do business with my father and Han people..." When talking about his father, tears suddenly flowed down, and he cried very sadly. After a while, he covered his face with his hands and lowered his head.

I looked at her slightly purple hair with pity and sighed, "Let her cry for a while. You are the deputy governor of Aihui. Is this place under your jurisdiction? How many years have you been in office?"

"Reply to the emperor, I am Feng Xiang, the deputy governor of Aihui. He has been in office for more than five years."

I looked at him and said coldly: "Since Hailanpao, the 64 villages in Jiangdong are all my Qing dynasties and are clearly divided to the Russian side. As the governor of the country, why do you allow the Russians to bully my Qing people? You are stupid! What's the use of me like you?"

"Emperor! I deserve to die!" Hearing my scolding, Feng Xiang fell down and stumbled up and knelt down on the ground and cried in tears: "I deserve to die! The emperor clearly understands! It's not that I am incompetent, but that I dare not disobey orders!"

"Disappearing the order?" I laughed in anger: "Absurd! You defend your country and violate the order! What kind of order is this? Is it a order to shamelessly treason for you?" I cursed, but I was wondering in my heart, did you really have any orders before, and you were not allowed to fight back?

"When I replied to the emperor, I dare not shirk it. It is because the Russians have repeatedly negotiated with the capital. The Military Affairs Department has issued orders to not easily punish the Russians. If the country is damaged, the deputy governor will ask! Emperor, this is the strict order of the Military Affairs Department Ele and Buzhongtang. The slave is not afraid of death. He is willing to die with the Russians and die ten times. But the slave really dares not violate the order! I am not afraid to tell the emperor that the slave has been working in this position for more than five years and has not been promoted, because when he first took office, he was young and energetic and violated the order..."

"Enough!" I was full of annoyance and scolded me.

Needless to say, I could probably know what happened. The elders in the court are afraid of foreigners, and they dare not cause trouble in the local area. They are really sad and angry. After thinking about it, they snorted and said, "Even if that's the case, you can have a solution! Now that I have implemented the new policy and made great determination, can't you see it?"

"Emperor..." Huo Jin'er also knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, you have aggrieved Lord Feng. Lord Feng is a good official, and no one blames him..."

I also calmed down and shook my hand and said, "Get up, Fengxiang, no matter what I used to be, what I want is now, and what I say is now. I have made up my mind about the war. I only ask you if you dare to do it with the Russians!"

"Dare!" Feng Xiang's temper also became angry, his face was swollen, he pulled his scarf angrily, and said panting.

"Okay!" I leaned down and leaned closer to him and said, "Okay, you said you had done it with the Russians before, so why did you do it? Tell me. After listening, I have my own errands to you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Feng Xiang thanked his gratitude with a red face. When he talked about his past things, he seemed shy. The general idea was that Hailanpao and Jiangdong Sixty-SiTun were inserted on the opposite bank of Heilongjiang on the land ceded to Russia agreed in accordance with the Sino-Russia Aihui Treaty and the Sino-Russia Beijing Treaty. It was China's territory. According to the agreement, Russia has jurisdiction over these two places, but it has no right to drive away the Chinese, and the Chinese have no right to do so, nor does the Chinese have the right to drive away the Chinese.

The Russians repeatedly made tentative actions against this, but were stopped by Fengxiang's attitude of fighting against force. These little tricks on the border failed to succeed at the border, but they got the results they wanted on the diplomatic level. Fengxiang was repeatedly severely rebuked by the Military Affairs Office, but he did not want to change such a thorn, and no one could bear the responsibility. So Fengxiang was like a nail, staring at the position of Deputy Chief of Aihui and unable to move.

Now that tens of thousands of Russian troops have gathered on the other side, the situation is naturally incomparable to the small-scale fights in the past. How to use Fengxiang, it is better to hand it over to Nie Shicheng. Nie Shicheng has to perform a roundabout task. It is not possible without a local guide. He made up his mind and said, "Fengxiang, now my Dragon Flag Army needs a guide to circumvent Hailanpao from the rear. Do you dare to take your people together?"

"Dare!" Feng Xiang immediately became active again when he heard the order, and stood up and said, "Slaves will die!"

I laughed and was about to speak, Huo Jin'er beside me also knelt down and said, "Please allow me to go to the war with me!", looking at me with bright eyes.

I shook my hand and said, "You are my people. I will avenge your father's grudge. There is no need to take such a big risk. You should follow Yiketang and follow the army to Ke Hailan." He turned to Fengxiang and said, "You, now take your people and report to Nie Junmen. Follow the command of Nie Junmen!"

"twitter!"

"Let's wait!" Huo Jin'er shouted sweetly: "Please listen to me. I am more familiar with the matters there than Master Feng. I have to go around Hailan, either from Humal, or from Chikle and Wuyun River. I am familiar with these two paths. Moreover, there are traitors over there! The emperor, you must be careful!"

Traitor? I was stunned. There are actually traitors here?

Looking at my shocked look, Huo Jiner stood up proudly and said to me, "Your Majesty, don't believe it. There are bad people everywhere. Humal's Li short braided hair has been wearing Russian clothes since he was a child, speaking Russian language, and often bringing people across the river to grab things. Everyone here hates him. And Chikler's Sun Fu, the same thing is the same. Only I can lead them out and kill them! Otherwise, as soon as our army moves, they will definitely report the Russians immediately, and we will suffer a great loss!"

I looked at her proud look and felt quite funny. I laughed and said, "What can you do to lure them out? The situation is different now, will they come?"

"Hmph! They dare not, my father saved their lives before..." When talking about her father, she still couldn't help but shed tears and choked and said, "My father used to regret saving these two things..."

"Okay, okay..." I comforted her and said, "That's not your fault. You can go too, but if you go alone, don't take your tribe members, they are all good men."

"If you go alone, go alone. With the protection of your father, we will succeed with Mitaha!" Huo Jin'er jumped up in joy. No matter how you look, she doesn't look like the leader of a nation with thousands of people.

I asked curiously, "What is Mitaha?"

"That's it." She smiled mischievously and put on the hat behind her head. The hat covered most of her head, and two holes were dug in the eyes, revealing her naughty eyes. Two ears were born on both sides, and a roe deer head was the whole.

I couldn't help laughing. Seeing that I was happy, Huo Jin'er pulled off her hat and said, "Mitaha is a roe-head hat, which is our Oroqen job. We E girls, no one who can't do Mihata. If the emperor likes it, I will send a few more to the queens."

"Nonsense!" I couldn't help laughing and pretended to scold: "I only have one queen."

Huo Jin'er naughtyly stuck out her tongue and said, "The emperor is very afraid of people when he gets angry, like Niu Niuku, and like Old Mas..."

It's so fresh, I laughed and said, "What's Niu Niuku? Where is Old Mas?"

"Reply to the emperor's words." Feng Xiang couldn't bear it anymore and snatched the conversation and said, "Niu Niuku is a bear, Lao Mas is a tiger, she is praising the emperor, you have the power of a bear and a tiger, and the Russians are frightened."

"Hahahaha--" I could no longer bear it and laughed: "If you don't go, Nie Shicheng is going to start!"

Now, after hearing what I said, the two of them quickly looked solemn and knelt down to say goodbye.
Chapter completed!
