"Damn Tsarist Russian barbarians, insatiable, short-sighted, and dare to treat my Qing envoy like this, and even more delusional Romania who plotted against my Qing Dynasty!" When Dolgon received the news that Zihar had been imprisoned by the Russians, he turned blue with anger and was extremely angry.

He originally wanted to join forces with Tsarist Russia and fight against the Ming Dynasty together.

However, it was just that Tsarist Russia did not approve of it, and even blatantly plotted against Romania, which had just been annexed by the Qing Dynasty, and even imprisoned the envoys of the Qing Dynasty, which was absolutely the most serious provocation of the Qing Dynasty and could not be forgiven.

After the annexation of the Ottoman Empire, although Dolgon wanted to recuperate, recuperate, and avoid war with the surrounding areas as much as possible, so as to resist the possible attack of the Ming Dynasty in the future, but the actions of Tsarist Russia made him intolerable and impossible to tolerate.

"Pass the order, mobilize a large army, and this king will conquer Tsarist Russia!" Dorgon commanded with murderous intent in mind.

The thirty-second year of the Ming Dynasty, at the end of May.

Because the Russian Empire imprisoned Zihar, who had gone to negotiate a joint alliance, and threatened to attack Romania, which belonged to the Qing Dynasty, the Qing regent Dolgon was furious and ordered the Qing army to attack the Russian Empire in two ways.

All the way, 150,000 Qing troops, led by the Qing general Ao Bai, marched east from Romania to attack Ukraine of the Tsarist Russian Empire.

All the way 200,000 Qing troops, commanded by Dolgon himself, marched north from Georgia and attacked all the way west and north.

The Qing army had two large armies, totaling 350,000, and the scale was huge. The reason why such a large army was dispatched was nothing more than that Dolgon wanted to fight a decisive battle, quickly defeat the Tsarist Empire, and end the war as quickly as possible, after all, the current direction of the Qing Dynasty was still in the Ming Dynasty, and there was not so much time and energy to consume with the Tsarist Russian Empire for a long time.

Of the 350,000 Qing troops, as many as 80,000 were newly formed firearms armies, and the number of each firearm corps in the Qing army was also 20,000 because of the imitation of the Ming military system.

Among the four Qing firearms armies, three were flint armies and one rifle army.

While attacking Tsarist Russia, Dolgon also wanted to take the opportunity to test the combat effectiveness of the firearms army formed by Daxin.

When the Tsar learned that the 350,000 Qing troops were attacking Tsarist Russia on two fronts, he was instantly shocked, and then he was extremely angry, threatening to make the Manchus pay the price and annihilate all the Qing troops who dared to enter Tsarist Russia.

The Tsar was very angry, and quickly mobilized troops from Moscow to the south to resist the Qing attack.

Although the Tsarist Russian Empire was greatly injured by the Ming Dynasty more than 20 years ago, and its national strength was sharply reduced, after more than 20 years of recuperation, coupled with the decline of the Ottoman Empire in previous years, it took the opportunity to annex Ukraine and Crimea, and its national strength has been restored, and it is not weaker than before the war with the Ming army, and even stronger.

This is also why the tsar not only did not agree to the request of the Manchus to join forces against the Ming Dynasty, but instead thought about Romania, Georgia and other places that had been occupied by the Manchus. Because Tsarist Russia, which had restored its national strength, once again greedily peeked into the surrounding territories, once again revealing their obsession with territory, in their eyes, it was more important to get more territory without anything.

Tsarist Russia, which had restored its national strength, relied on its population of nearly 20 million and local operations to mobilize 300,000 or 400,000 Russian troops to resist the Qing army's attack.

In the end, the total number of Russian troops who resisted the Qing army in two ways was about 370,000, which was only 20,000 more than the Qing army.

In the Ukrainian direction, the Russian army originally had 150,000 troops stationed in Ukraine, peeking at Romania.

However, there were not many Russian troops in the north of Georgia, and the number of Qing troops attacking from here was also the largest, and it was still commanded by Dolgon, and the 220,000 Russian troops gathered in Moscow were all coming to resist the Russian army led by Dolgon.

In terms of numbers, the Qing army and the Russian army were half a pound and eight taels.

However, Tsarist Russia did restore the national strength of the year, even stronger than that year, but in the end it was still the same as the Russian army more than 20 years ago, lacking weapons and armor, and the musket team was still backward arquebuses, and the entire Russian army was only obviously so 'shabby' in front of the well-equipped Qing army!

However, the Russian army is arrogant, especially the 220,000-strong Russian army that went south from Moscow, and it is fierce all the way.

Unfortunately, the facts have dealt them a painful blow.

Lacking armor, most of them only wore coarse cloth, and held cold weapons in their hands, the Russian army suffered heavy casualties and quickly collapsed under the attack of the elite cavalry of the Qing army and the well-equipped Persian, Indian, and Ottoman banners.

A 50,000-strong Russian musket team was even worse.

Tsarist Russia firearms technology is very backward, can only produce backward arquebuses, and even arquebuses are far worse than the arquebuses produced in Europe a hundred years ago, not to mention compared with the Qing army's battering rifles, not to mention, the Qing army has more advanced field artillery than Europe, in the face of the Qing army's rifle army and flint army, this 50,000-strong Russian musket team is almost no different from being slaughtered by one side.

"Boom, boom, boom————" The artillery of the Qing army roared, and one after another Tsarist Russian soldiers were killed.

Not only the 150,000 Russian troops in the Ukrainian direction were quickly disintegrated and scattered, but the Qing army only lost more than 20,000 people.

In the north of Georgia, the 200,000 Qing cavalry led by Dolgon himself was numerous, and the 220,000 Tsarist Russian army faced was much more miserable than the Russian army in the Ukrainian direction.

Under the crushing of the cavalry of the Qing army and several firearms troops, the 220,000 Russian army only held out for more than an hour before it was completely defeated.

The mountains were full of defeated Russian troops.

"Kill, ——-" The cavalry of the Qing army pursued and killed on a large scale, killing rivers of blood in the north of Georgia, and the corpses of Russian soldiers were everywhere.

In less than ten days, the 370,000 Russian army was completely defeated, and the north of Georgia was almost completely annihilated. The Qing army did not seem to be interested in taking prisoners in this battle, and the number of Russian soldiers killed on both sides was no less than 250,000.

In fact, this is Dolgon's deliberate, in order to end this battlefield as soon as possible, and at the same time, Da Ming does not know when he will attack the Qing Dynasty, he does not have so much time to deal with Russian prisoners, so he simply does not take prisoners, and through such bloody killings, he can also deter Tsarist Russia.

After the Qing army defeated the Russian army, it continued to attack in the hinterland of Tsarist Russia.

On the western road, the Qing army swept through Ukraine.

On the eastern route, after the Qing army captured the Caucasus, it continued northward, and had reached less than 800 kilometers south of Moscow, directly aiming at Moscow, the core of the Tsarist Empire.

The tsar was shocked and turned pale with fright.

"Damn! It's simply impossible! How could my great Russian army be defeated so quickly, how could it be defeated! The Tsar roared, and at the same time, his heart was filled with fear.

He never thought that the Qing army was so powerful, his 370,000 Russian troops were all defeated by the Qing army in just a few days, once the Qing army was determined to destroy his Tsarist Empire, how much more strength could he take out to resist!
