Of course, the rebellion in Jinchuan and Jinchuan annoyed the Qing army, but the Burmese army was not as stable as Mount Tai.

Since the arrival of the Manchu army to conquer Burma and fight with Burma, those Yunnan Tusi who have defected to Burma like grass on the wall have rippled in their hearts.

Don't look at Myanmar as if it has always had the upper hand, but they are completely uncertain about whether Myanmar can gain a foothold in Yunnan. As a result, some Tusi who were forced to provide military rations for the Burmese army began to find excuses to delay.

If this matter had been put before, Yong Jiya would definitely have directly dispatched troops to attack them. But now that the war is tight, in order to prevent incidents and ensure the smooth logistics of supply from Burma, Yongjiya has turned a blind eye.

But if that's all there is to it, it's not a big problem for Myanmar. After all, when Yongjiya was considering the attacking Burmese army, he never expected that Yunnan would be able to meet the Burmese army's military rations locally. As long as the Burmese army is in Yunnan, the logistics and grain routes will be unblocked. However, this is not an easy task.

The Burmese army burned, killed and looted along the way in Yunnan, which made many Yunnan people who suffered from the destruction of their homes hateful to Myanmar. Funded by those who dared to resist the Burmese invasion, they launched a deadly attack on the Burmese army, putting a lot of pressure on the Burmese army's logistics. Slowly, the Burmese army began to run out of food.

However, the Qing army was completely unaware of all this. At the same time, in addition to the large and small Jinchuan, the Manchu court at this time was also suffering from a headache for their so-called "land of dragon prosperity".

In recent years, the Manchu Qing Dynasty had been engaged in frequent wars, and the Russian Far East ministers felt that they had smelled an "opportunity". So under the pretext of the "Nebuchu Convention", he invaded the Great Khing'an Mountains.

You must know that Tsarist Russia did not "understand" the Manchu Qing at all.

As early as the Kangxi period, which they advocated as the "first emperor of the ages", Tsarist Russia used less than 1,000 troops, and the Manchu Emperor Kangxi obediently ceded more than 3 million pieces of land north of Heilongjiang and Waixinganling to Russia.

Later, when Yongzheng came, the Manchu Qing Dynasty signed the "Treaty of Brendches" and the "Treaty of Kyakhta" with Russia, ceding 300,000 square kilometers of land in the southern Baikal Lake and the Angara River valley to Tsarist Russia.

Now that it is the Qianlong era, there is no reason why Qianlong should be an exception. Since his grandfather and father have contributed to Tsarist Russia, it is time for Qianlong to express himself, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty is still at war, and Tsarist Russia feels that this time it will definitely be able to bite the Manchu side fiercely.

At the beginning of the 23rd year of Qianlong, Tsarist Russia was shot and killed by Manchu soldiers under the pretext that there were serfs, and then quickly expanded the matter and gathered more than 1,000 troops to launch an attack on Heilongjiang.

In the following ten days, the Russian "army" that crossed the border carried out a frenzied killing of the people in Heilongjiang, whether they were old, weak, women or children, all of them were slaughtered, and the earth was frozen red for a while.

The Manchu Qing had few defenders on the Heilongjiang border, and the difference in weapons made the Heilongjiang border fall quickly.

Heilongjiang garrison general Akzhan. After receiving the massacre, Suhachi immediately sent people to negotiate with the Russian "army", but what he got was a land cession agreement. In the end, the negotiations were fruitless. Suhachi had no choice but to organize an army to resist and report it to the imperial court.

Qing Dynasty, Imperial Meeting

Qianlong, who had just returned from the Temple of Heaven to worship the heavens, never thought that he would receive an urgent military situation from Heilongjiang. There would be changes in Tsarist Russia on the border, and Qianlong also expected it in his heart, but he didn't expect it to come so urgently.

Since the rebellion of the "short-haired thieves" in the south, the Qing Dynasty has not known what has happened in recent years, with frequent wars and natural disasters.

Let's not mention the "short-haired thief", which finally pacified Dzungaria, Gansu made trouble again, pacified Gansu, and the size of the Western Regions (1) and Zhuo were restless.

This transferred the army to the Pingxi Regions, and the Burmese army came to join in the fun. The empire has transferred troops to pacify Burma, and the size of Sichuan's Jinchuan is not worry-free. Not to mention that there are all kinds of disasters and floods in various places.

Qianlong felt that this must be because he was too high-spirited to offend God a few years ago, so God sent so many disasters to the Qing Dynasty. As a result, Qianlong had the act of going to the Temple of Heaven to worship and pray.

For this reason, Qianlong also invited a famous shaman from the "Land of Longxing" in the northeast to come over and pray. But he didn't think that he had received such a military situation just after the sacrifice, and at this time, Qianlong had to go back to the court to hold a court meeting to discuss.

"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think about the invasion of our Heilongjiang border by Tsarist Russia, which came from Suha Chifa to burn, kill and plunder?" Qianlong, who was sitting on the dragon chair, asked.

At this time, as the military department of the military department is full of Shangshu Mulu. Shu Hede inevitably stood up and said: "Back to the saint, the slave thinks that Heilongjiang is the place where my Qing Dynasty is prosperous, and the root of the national vein must not be lost. ”

"Therefore, the slave thinks that although Tsarist Russia is strong, my Qing Dynasty is the superior country of the Celestial Empire, and it is not easy to bully. We must send troops to counterattack the invading Russian army, so that they can restrain their wolf ambitions. ”

"The minions seconded what Lord Schuhd said..."

"The minions also echoed Lord Schuhed's words..."

Subsequently, many ministers of the Eight Banners also seconded Shu Mulu. Schuhed's statement. Of course, the Hanchen did not express any meaning.

Because when it comes to the issue of "the land of Longxing", they have to be cautious, and they will not express their opinions if they can, lest a bad one will cause criticism, make a house be destroyed, and the head will fall to the ground.

Moreover, as long as the Han Chen is knowledgeable, he understands that Qianlong only asks the opinions of the ministers of the Eight Banners, and these outsiders, who cannot be called "slaves", do not have the right to express their opinions.

"I have no objection to sending troops to fight Tsarist Russia, but where does the soldiers' food come from?" In the second voice, I heard a different voice coming out, this person was Niu Hulu, the head of the household department. Aligon.

"Where can it come from? Nature comes from your household. "Shumulu. Shu Hede looked at Niu Hulu. Arigon said with some annoyance.

"Tobe? Our household department no longer has the money to support sending troops to Heilongjiang to fight Tsarist Russia. "Niu Hulu. Arigon replied.

"Aligon, what do you mean, are you going to ignore my land of Longxing in the Great Qing Dynasty?" Shu Mulu. Shu Hede immediately angrily turned at Niu Hulu. Arigon asked.

"It's not interesting, it's just that there is no money for the treasury settlement. If you Shu Hede have a way to get the silver, you will be the secretary of my household! "Niu Hulu. Ligon replied unceremoniously.

Note (1): Since Xinjiang, the word Xinjiang was taken later by Qianlong!
