1479 Incredible intelligence
The soldiers brought with them a small caravan of twelve people, and in this season before the winter snow melts, it has always been difficult to encounter caravans on the steppe, let alone caravans in Tsarist Russia. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"What about General Fargiev, we want to see the corps commander, we have important information to send!" The bearded man at the head was unwilling to let the soldiers around him control, and struggled to pounce forward.
"If you let him in, it's all one country, will it hurt me?" Fadeev retorted.
The bearded man rushed to the Legion Commander, looked at him, and said, "Can I see your letter of appointment? I have to prove your identity to tell you the latest information! Although I don't think you can fake it, the proper procedure must be ......."
"Bold ......" the guard opened his mouth to scold, but Fadeev raised his hand to stop them, he looked at the bold businessman calmly, and said lightly, "Yes! I can even show you my medal from His Majesty the Tsar himself......"
The letter of appointment from Moscow proved the identity of the commander of the Farjiev regiment, and the bearded merchant saw that it was correct, and hurriedly stepped back and gave a military salute and said: "I'm very sorry sir, my subordinate is the military attache of the Russian minister in Beijing, and I have brought the latest order from Minister Ulangori!"
After saying this, the bearded man took off his shoes, and inside the thick soles of his leather boots, he used his dagger to open a piece of leather to reveal a dark groove inside, and a wax-sealed paper roll was pulled out of it.
"In order to find you, the Minister secretly sent four teams to wait for you at the place where you must pass, but I didn't expect that I was the luckiest ......"
Fadeev didn't have time to greet him, crushed the wax seal and opened the paper scroll, and after reading it, Fadeev looked up to the sky and smiled, "Hahaha, God really loves us, I didn't expect the biggest difficulty to be solved by Beijing!"
Tears of laughter flowed from Fadeyev's eyes, and he passed the note to the division commanders and staff around him, and the people were stunned and couldn't believe their eyes.
"Why? God, could this be false information? The city of Beijing actually opened the border of Heilongjiang and allowed our army to sneak over to attack the lair of the volunteers?"
"They...... Why are they doing this?" Gogol looked at the bearded military attache and asked, "I doubt the authenticity of this information now, you must prove your identity to us!"
The bearded military attache said indignantly, "The minister's handwritten letter still doesn't explain the problem? We have traveled more than 1,000 kilometers in ten days to find you, but we are still liars......
"If you don't believe me, you can send someone through Heilongjiang to contact the officials of the Qing Dynasty, I think they should have received the latest telegram order now!"
"Don't think that this information is bizarre, in fact, you will know it after working in the Qing State for a while, this country is very weird, and the officials in the court are a group of bureaucrats who only know their own interests and ignore the interests of the country......"
"They are extremely cruel in their internal struggle for power and profit, but they are a group of cowardless ghosts externally! They let go of the Heilongjiang Customs, but they are also afraid that the volunteers will become bigger, and in their hearts our threat is actually far lower than that of those traitors who rebel!"
"The most important thing is that now the little emperor of the Qing State has clearly expressed his support for the actions of the volunteers, and the empress dowager of the two palaces and the regent have gone to the opposite side of the little emperor...... Of course, their main opponent is Xiao Letian by the side of the little emperor!"
"The Volunteers are Xiao Letian's troops, and killing the Volunteers is equivalent to eliminating one of Xiao Letian's hands, do you think this information is still very bizarre now?"
Fadeev smiled, "Very good, you can tell the intricate relationships in Beijing in such detail, which shows that you are not a fake...... Go down, and you can get a share of the gold and silver seized by the Eagle Tribe as your reward for this hard work!"
After the messenger left, Fadeev quickly opened the map and carefully studied it, and soon made a decision: "Gogol, Fumanov obey orders!"
"Yes, General!" the two of them stood up and saluted.
"The two of you led the 20,000 cavalry regiment to the Songhua River Estuary, brought enough supplies, one man and two horses to go to the Songhua River Estuary day and night, and when passing through Bourdo, contact the Qing defenders on the other side of Aihun, and let them get out of the defense ...... the Songhua River Estuary."
"20,000 cavalry went south along the Songhua River, and now the ice should still be able to walk horses, so if you can't do it, you can go to the riverbank and go all the way south to the city of the three surnames......"
"After you get there, you will be able to see the post road of the Qing Kingdom, follow the post road straight to Ningguta City, and then take a detour along the Suifen River all the way downstream...... The mouth of the Suifen River is in the Amur Bay, and by that time you should know how the war will be fought!"
Gogol and Fumanov excitedly led the troops to assemble their troops, and an hour later 20,000 troops with all the dried meat and forage of the whole army, one man and two horses, quickly marched towards the east.
Fadeev looked at the remaining officers and shook his head with a smile, "Okay, we only have three days' worth of food left in our hands now, what are you doing watching it? Don't go out and grab ......?"
"The 3rd Division is responsible for the southern ...... The 4th Division was responsible for the Northern ...... The Fifth Division is responsible for extending to the west, let's take action! We will assemble at the mouth of the Aihun Heilongjiang River! Hurry up, let's take action, I'm afraid there are already many tribes on the grassland running for their lives, and I'm afraid we won't get a single lamb if we play!"
The remaining 30,000 troops scattered like hungry wolves, and the three directions of north, south, and east suddenly became hell on earth. Stretching downstream along the Shilka River, all the tribes that did not have time to flee were sacked.
The 1st and 2nd Divisions of the Advance Advance entered the Heilongjiang valley along the Shilka River in only seven days and marched eastward to the mouth of the Songhua River, while the envoys of Gogol broke away from the brigade on the opposite bank of Aihun and crossed the river directly to the Heilongjiang general Tepuqin.
The merchant who had been operating in Heilongjiang for many years was very familiar with the Qing officialdom, and he knew that it was not enough to rely on the will of the imperial court, and that he had to give enough benefits to deal with such corrupt officials.
Five thousand taels of gold were heavily pressed into the tray, and a whole table was placed, and the golden light was enough to shake Tepuxin's inner values.
He also knew that the imperial court was in chaos, and let go of the border defense to allow the Rakshasa ghost to enter the country to slaughter the people of his own country, which was unacceptable to anyone who had a little popularity.
But this man's heart really can't withstand the golden light, Tepuxin said faintly, "Let you in, I'm afraid it's going to harm our people, do you know what the people call you? Rakshasa ghost!"
The merchant smiled all over his face, "I know, dear general, your noble character of loving the people like a son is worthy of our admiration! You can rest assured that this time we are definitely just borrowing the road, and we will definitely not harm the people of the Qing Dynasty in the slightest......
"To tell you the truth, what we want to fight is also the rebels of the Chinese people, and they are also the enemies of the Great Qing Kingdom!
Tepchin's throat was a little dry, and he couldn't help but say, "It's just a loan!"
"Don't worry, General, I promise that we will not hurt a chicken from the common people......"
