Qianlong: Qing Dynasty?What about my Daqing?

Chapter 268 The Yenisei River is the Boundary

The shock of a brigade's troops being defeated by the Ming army in a short period of time was unprecedented!

Tsarist Prince Paul Petrovich, who got the news, had his hands trembling when he got the news.

Because the result of this battle was so obvious, what the rabbit Lieutenant General Mikhail said was true.

The imperial army is really no match for the Ming army on the frontal battlefield!

Everything he said is true!
The clown turned out to be me.

Crown Prince Paul and General Repnin of the Imperial Army looked ashen.

One trial seems to have already decided the winner.

Will this war continue?

Could it be that he returned to Irkutsk so disheartened?

Repnin took a deep breath and said, "The plan for a decisive battle has been cancelled, but the Chinese are not invincible, they also have weaknesses!"

"Where is their weakness?"

"supply!"

Repnin raised his head suddenly and said.

"They came here with hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep. This is their weakness!"

"What are we going to do?" asked Crown Prince Paul.

Admiral Repnin was later a Russian Field Marshal, the kind who participated in the Napoleonic Wars.

And such a general who has experienced many battles, of course knows that a temporary loss does not mean that he will lose the war.

His eyes flicked over the map.

Finally said: "We need to move and mobilize them!"

"What if they go to Irkutsk with all their heart?"

"No, they dare not attack rashly when there may be an army of [-] in the rear!!"

Repnin said.

"We will retreat tonight, go around the Gobi to the rear, and look for opportunities to attack their supply lines!"

Repnin clenched his fists and said.

Crown Prince Paul nodded: "This is the only thing we can do now. It would be great if we could consume them to death on the Gobi Grassland."

Is it too good to be true?

thought Repnin.

If the Chinese cannot be defeated on the frontal battlefield, then the Russian Empire as a whole will have to take a defensive position against the Ming Empire.

Even if this battle can be won
That only slowed down the momentum.

Thinking of this, General Repnin said: "His Royal Highness, our purpose of this battle is not to decide the outcome with the Chinese, but to let the Chinese see our courage! Let them know that Russia is not easily defeated country 1"

"Even if they have more advanced weapons than us!"

"And our purpose of doing this is to buy time. The times have changed. The future is the era of bombardment guns, rifled guns, and grenades!"

Repnin said in a low voice.

"What? The Russians are gone?"

"What happened? This is an army of [-]?!"

"Where did they go? West? East? South? Or retreated back to Irkutsk?"

"Quick! Send out the scouts and find out where they are!"

at this time.

Chen Dewang's staff has become tense.

Originally, the former army won the victory smoothly, and the whole army was immersed in the joy of victory, and they were going to continue to press forward after finishing up.

According to the plan of the staff department, if the Russians dare to resist, they will defeat them head-on. If they withdraw to Irkutsk, they will surround Irkutsk and wait for the follow-up heavy artillery to be delivered to directly bombard the city. No castle can stop the bombardment of powerful high-explosive ammunition.

But who would have thought.

The night passed.

Twenty thousand Russian troops have disappeared!
Their camp was completely empty.

It can be seen from the imprints on the grass that it seems to have gone to the west, but at the edge of the Gobi Desert, the horseshoes are covered by wind and sand, and there are no traces.

The vast desert.

Want to find out where an army went.

It's no harder than finding a needle in a haystack.

So where do they go?
Chen Dewang frowned.

"Chief of Staff, from the map, to the west is the Gobi Desert. There are more than [-] of them. If they enter the desert, it will be tantamount to courting death. There is no point in going east. They will go all the way to the east. The Northeast, the army camps in the Northeast are not something they can easily deal with."

"Going south, they must have gone south!"

It was Chen Liansheng, the brigade commander of the former army's right brigade, who spoke.

Chen Dewang looked at the map.

What is the purpose of going south to Monan?

Looting Mongolian tribes everywhere?

What's the point of this?
Of course.

At the junction of Chahar and Liaoxi, there are many Han military households. The only reason for them to enter Monan is to burn, kill and loot.

"Is it going to attack our supplies?"

A staff officer said.

"It's quite possible. If we lose those hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep, we have to retreat before winter arrives. If tens of thousands of troops march outside in winter, most of them will freeze to death."

It's just why the Russians think they have the ability to threaten their own supplies?

"The cavalry of Rakshasa ghosts may enter Monan." Fukang'an, who participated in the military discussion, came to a conclusion. After discovering the news that the Russian army was missing, the army shrank into a ball and would never let the opponent attack him. The "granary" can take advantage of the opportunity. These hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep will be slaughtered after winter and frozen for winter consumption. Therefore, people like Fukang'an and Guan Dengbao are also combatants and need Participated in military discussions.

"If I were the commander of the Rakshasa ghost, I would definitely go south to the Monan Grassland to attract the Ming army's attention by burning, killing, and looting, threatening the Hetao area, and then going west to attract the Ming army to pursue them, and finally enter Central Asia, and may even fight with the Ming army." Join forces with the Qing army under Le Bao's command!"

Fukang'an said along the map with his hand.

Chen Dewang looked at Fu Kang'an, the former general of the Qing army really had some skills.

But what is the difference between the Russian army entering Monan and courting death?

Although they can use the vast grasslands to maneuver.

However, with a mere [-] troops, under the siege and interception of the Ming army, as long as they are bitten, they will inevitably be wiped out.

"The Ming-Russia war is beneficial to Ming as a whole, and greatly detrimental to the Russians. The previous battle has made the Russians realize that if they can't take risks, there is almost no chance of winning."

"That's a desperate move!" Chen Liansheng said disapprovingly.

"What if our army goes to attack Irkutsk regardless?"

"There are [-] troops behind, if we don't catch them, how can we continue to venture north?"

Fukangan shook his head and said.

"Since this is the case, the Russian commanders will certainly not be surprised, and they will definitely consider our response, so their purpose of going south is just about to come out. It must be to lure me to divide my troops!!" Chen Dewang said.

"Since that's the case, then we will follow the plan and divide the troops into three groups! The right brigade of the former army will spread out in companies to find the main force of the Russians, and the left brigade of the former army will stay behind to protect our army's "meat warehouse", and the rest of the army will follow me to the south."

Chen Dewang said loudly.

"Now my troops are divided into three groups, the main force is [-], and the partial division is [-]. Which route will the Russians attack?"

"Must stay on this road!"

A staff officer said.

Chen Dewang nodded.

"It is necessary to give the Russians a little hope. Otherwise, how dare they come to fight? Five thousand are left behind, and there are hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep. What a temptation! They have [-] soldiers, and they dare not come to fight one out of four If they fight, let them surrender as soon as possible!"

Speaking of this, Chen Dewang looked at Chen Liansheng and asked, "How about it? Is there any pressure for a brigade to beat them, a division and two Cossack regiments?"

Chen Liansheng said with a smile: "What pressure can there be? This time we are just playing defensively and let them come up to die."

Chen Dewang couldn't help laughing: "Okay! This battle is over, and I will personally show your merits to the emperor. If this Russian army is completely wiped out, another Russian crown prince and a general of the Russian army will be captured. Then Irkutsk All of Edong's territory must belong to Daming!"

Before Chen Dewang led the army, Emperor Zhu had already given him the truth.

Taking the Yenisei River as the current Sino-Russian border is the purpose of this battle.

To achieve this goal, it is necessary to use a thunderous blow to make Tsarist Russia fully realize that they are facing an enemy that cannot be defeated.

When Emperor Zhu cut it off, he planned to cut off all the Eastern Siberia of Tsarist Russia.

Of course.

Just use treaty.

It is impossible to determine the boundary in name and truly control and digest such a large territory in a short period of time.

And for Emperor Zhu.

The war with Tsarist Russia has ended here for the time being—of course, it depends on whether the other party surrenders.
