Fadeev was not convinced, he admitted defeat but was never convinced, and he would not accept Xiao Letian's humiliation. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"From Central Asia all the way to here, thousands of kilometers away, do you know how we came here? After more than three months of suffering marching, we came by walking on ice and snow all the way......

"We eat on horseback, sleep on horseback, drink snow water when we are thirsty, eat dried meat when we are hungry, and once the war horse dies, it will immediately become our military food, and we eat raw meat and come over......"

"There was no field artillery, there was not much gunpowder, there was no infantry coordination, and medicine, including medicine, was very scarce...... But no matter how hard it tried, we still completed this strategic detour!"

"If it weren't for the damned Qing infighting, if it wasn't for Hunchun who launched that mutiny, as long as we get supplies in Aihui City, do you think you can defeat me?"

"Hahaha, did Gogol and Fumanov cause you countless problems before? What happened to them? I think no matter what they achieved, they have taught you a lesson that you will never forget! I believe in the strength of my men, because I have fought with them, and I firmly believe in ......."

Xiao Lotian listened silently to Fadeyev's venting, he was not angry, there was no need to be serious about a seriously injured prisoner, and if he lost, he lost.

Fadeev nagged for ten minutes, talking about how brave the Cossacks were, how rich their combat experience was, how many ways to break through Jiangxin Island, and so on.

To be honest, Xiao Lotian still admires Fadeyev's strength very much, and in just ten minutes, Fadeev came up with three feasible sets of formation-breaking tactics, of course, the premise is that the soldiers and horses can be fed, which is the most basic requirement.

Fadjiev is not a mediocre talent, but he still fails, and all the rhetorical battles are just trying to save a little face.

"Finished?" Xiao Letian looked at him, "Make a cup of hot sugar water for the major general to replenish your strength!"

"Well, I'll admit you're right, remember I'm not being sarcastic, but I really think you're right...... If it is a battle between the two sides, and the material gap between you and me is not very large, we really can't beat you!"

"I am also the one who leads the troops, I can see the elite of the Cossacks, you are good at hard fighting, hand-to-hand combat, your Don hippopotamus is strong and explosive, and it is not a problem to break through the military formation of infantry or Mongolian horses!"

"And the skill of changing formations in battle is also very powerful, and the level of individual horse control of soldiers far exceeds ours...... Analysis of all kinds of factors, against your group of elites, not to mention the Far Eastern Volunteers, even if I pull up the Chinese regular army on the main island of the Ryukyus, if you want to win, you will have to break a few front teeth......"

Xiao Letian took the sugar water from the hands of the medical soldiers and sent it to Fadeyev, and said with a smile: "However, I don't believe in such a thing as war, but these two words!"

"You complain that your soldiers are tired after thousands of miles of rapid marching, and you complain about the lack of food and grass, the lack of supplies, and the hell weather in the Far East......"

"Even you are complaining about the mutiny initiated by Hunchun, and the Heilongjiang River that closed the gate blocked your way, so you are unhappy, so you can only be forced to fight me in a decisive battle......"

"So, it's all clichés, aren't they? But have you thought about it, why is this happening?"

Fargiev was holding a glass of sugar water, and the whole person was stunned: "Why is this happening? Why...... It's not because you're vile and treacherous......"

"Hahaha...... If meanness and treachery can bring victory, then I can consider it a compliment! It seems that you, Fadeyev, can only be a regimental commander in this life, and even without this defeat, your official fortune can only stop there!"

"Why?" said Fadeyev's hand, and half a glass of sugar water was spilled.

"Why? Because you only know how to nag, you only complain about the shortcomings, and you never look closely at why this dilemma is happening!"

"At best, you are just a commander who is familiar with tactics, and you have no talent for strategy! A real commander plays chess outside the battlefield, do you think that war is a rain of swords and swords in front of you?"

"You're wrong, you're very wrong! I'll tell you how I deduced this war...... The reason why I chose to start a war at this juncture is because I have already deduced the reactions of all the powers in Asia and Europe......"

"You should know that now a big war is brewing in Europe, Prussia and France have torn their faces, and now the whole of Europe is watching how these two land powers will compete with each other, and war is on the verge of breaking out......"

"I can analyze these countries that can have influence in Asia for you one by one! Britain has always been on guard against your Tsarist Russia, and it is a very refreshing thing for them to be able to curb your expansion, so Britain will only provide diplomatic mediation, but will not actually intervene ......."

"Look at the United States again, now that the American Civil War is over, the whole country is desperately expanding its space to the west, isolationism is prevalent, all they want is to get rich, who cares about the barren land of the Far East?"

"To put it mildly, even the Alaska you sold them don't have the time to develop it, and they still care about the life and death of the Far East?"

"Look at France again, I admit that the French Emperor Napoleon III has a grudge against me, of course he wants me to die, but now that Prussia has been entangled with him, and he has suffered secret losses at my hands several times, do you think he will act rashly?"

"Don't be stupid, the European powers that can influence East Asia are just Britain, France, the United States and your Tsarist Russia, just these four or more will not have one, and now there are three forces that you can't borrow, isn't my odds of winning much higher?"

"Let's talk about your Tsarist Russia, you know your own affairs, you have such a little military strength in the Far East, and it is too late to replenish the Tsar if you defeat it, how many months do you need to travel from Western Europe to the Far East? How do you transport materials?"

"Not only that, but how many troops and money have you been held back by the Xinjiang side? Give up the situation in Xinjiang and the whole army will come to me? Hahaha, even if the tsar has the courage, do you still have the financial resources?"

"From the very beginning of the war, I have calculated all the changes, even the changes within your Tsarist Russia...... Let's be clear, after this defeat, your Tsarist Russia no longer has the ability to send any divisional and regimental troops here, because your empire's financial resources are about to run out!"

"Negotiation, negotiation is the only way, but do you think I will suffer at the negotiating table?"

Xiao Letian secretly said in his heart, Xiao still dares to shout at me, Lao Tzu, I specialize in all kinds of disobedience!
