The story of the Tsar and his mistress is very famous in European history, and the fiery love affair between Alexander II and his lover Catherine became the fodder for the whole European lace news, and the nobles and commoners were willing to talk about this peachy event after dinner.

Alexander II was very fond of his lover, as can be seen from real history, and less than four months after the death of the Tsar's empress, he corrected Catherine, which angered the entire nobility of Tsarist Russia.

How could Aiwu and the Czar Wuxia not take care of the mother's family, but the power in the west of the empire has long been divided between the important ministers and nobles, and there is really no place for the brother-in-law to leave.

Come to think of it, the Far East is the most suitable, Vladivostok is the most important port for the empire to enter the Pacific, the geographical location is very important, and it is the bridgehead for attacking China's Guanwai, the strategic structure of the future empire must be like a dumbbell, the east and west ends are economic, political, and military centers, and it is a good choice to put Exxon here.

The Qing state was weak, they did not dare to start a war against Tsarist Russia, the British and French forces could not reach this place for the time being, the United States, not to mention isolationism was prevalent, and other countries in Asia were not as good as the Qing Dynasty.

Thinking about it, there is only one opponent is Xiao Letian, but the tsar doesn't look down on such a small role at all, in his eyes, the reinforcements from the north and south go hand in hand, and the little power of the Chinese people will definitely be easily swept away.

In this context, put the young Exxon here as the governor, and as long as he ran for more than ten years, he would have his own power.

There is no need to consider safety, there is still a lot of credit, the Siberian Railway will arrive here in the future, and even Ackerson can lead troops to attack the customs outside the Qing Kingdom, so that the military merit is also there.

What a good plan, but they never counted the failure, and in their eyes, they have never looked at the Chinese as an opponent, so they are relieved and bold to let Ackerson set off for the Far East.

Of course, the tsar also knew that the major was too young to convince the public, so the governor's decree was not made public, and only the high-ranking generals of the expeditionary force knew the identity of the major.

According to the plan, these high-level officers cooperated with Ackerson to fight, desperately brushing the military merits of this young man, as long as the credit is great, the situation in the Far East is safe, and then the identity of the governor is announced, they will be able to convince the public, which will be very helpful for Ackerson to rule this land in the future.

The plan is so perfect that if he goes on according to this plan, at most ten years he will be able to firmly control the resources of the Far East, and he can become the real governor of the empire, and the power of the Tsar above 10,000 people.

However, the whole plan did not consider what would happen if it failed? Not to mention what would happen if Exxon was captured? What would happen if a plenipotentiary governor signed a diplomatic agreement with the Chinese? Will Moscow recognize it or not?

It's all a problem, and the young Ackerson simply can't take on such a difficult task, and he can't run without fighting, dropping, or running during this time, all because of this problem that is bothering him.

Fortunately, this army was a new type of army personally selected by the Tsar, and the newly emancipated serfs were extremely loyal to the Tsar, which allowed him to still control the army despite hunger and illness.

The mutiny did not appear, nor did the rout, and all the soldiers persisted, but no one thought that this insistence was actually a kind of torture for Exon.

Sometimes he even hopes that his subordinates will disperse in a hurry, so that the responsibility will not be on his shoulders, and the heavy pressure will have nowhere to vent and he can only rely on morphine to relieve the heavy pressure.

In the nineteenth century, opium and opium products were controversial, but no country treated them as untouchable drugs. The use of opiates was popular in both Europe and Asia, so it was normal for Exxon to rely on morphine to relieve stress at the time.

It's like modern people use antidepressants and other mental illness drugs, or opium was actually the same as the alcohol that relieved sorrow in that era, but it was just that this was more energetic and addictive.

Although the expeditionary force lacks food and drink, there are still a lot of medicines, especially this high-grade medicine, which may not be enough for the army, but for Ackerson alone, it is enough for him to be injected for two years.

Ackerson finally said what was in his heart, and Captain Vinya and other senior officers sighed and no one could say anything, and the middle-level officers around him understood the key to everything.

"I see! No wonder Chinese didn't attack, they wanted the governor to surrender and sign a cession agreement......Chinese!

"Damn, we must not surrender! We can be defeated, but our death can completely inspire those who come after us to fight bravely, never surrender, let Your Majesty increase troops from Western Europe, let the main force of the empire, I don't believe that we can't defeat this group of Chinese......"

"Beat this traitor to death! Kill him......" A group of officers rushed forward with the same hatred and punched and kicked Andreev.

Andreev lay on the ground in pain, holding his head in his hands, and shouted in despair, "Sir...... Do you really want to watch tens of thousands of soldiers die here? These are the seeds of our empire!"

"Calm down, there are 10,000 lone soldiers on Amami Oshima, and there are thousands of soldiers and civilians who surrendered in Vladivostok, so you have to think about the lives of so many people......"

"No matter how great the empire is, it can't bear such a loss, and after such a fiasco, how much will the image of the empire deteriorate? Let the European countries know that tens of thousands of Tsarist Russian warriors have died in Asia, and they will despise us even more, and we can't expose our weakness......

"Stop!" Exxon raised his hand to stop the beating of his officers, and Andreev's last words moved him.

In the Crimean War, Tsarist Russia fought against Britain and France, and after three years of fighting, Tsarist Russia lost more than 200,000 soldiers, but against a small Asian Chinese, more than 20,000 were killed in just one spring, and if the 20,000 people who lived were filled in, the results of the Chinese would reach more than 40,000.

If this is repaid, the whole world will be in an uproar, and Tsarist Russia may not even be able to keep the position of a second-rate empire, and then the wolves will frantically pounce and bite, and the imperial diplomacy will be in jeopardy.

This is an era of wolves, and any nation that shows the slightest weakness will be torn to pieces by other hungry wolves.

"You...... There is some truth in what you said, but the Chinese will not slaughter prisoners, this nation does not have so much wolf nature!" Ekson whispered to himself.

"Ridiculous!" Andreev roared, "how can you put your hope in the mercy of the enemy? Don't you think of these Chinese as Manchu or Han scholars, this is also a pack of aggressive wolves! If you don't achieve their goal, you don't think they will slaughter the city?"

"Don't dream, take a look here!" said Andrif, pulling out a few photos from his pocket.
