Feng Yunshan waved his hand: "Don't talk about the details, just talk about the key points." Who is behind the scenes? ”

Fan Ruzeng nodded hurriedly and said, "Obey!" It was found that the mastermind behind the scenes was a merchant named Ernst Alexander of the Grand Duchy of Weimar of Saxony, which had good relations with the Kingdom of Prussia. Now this businessman has been arrested by Wei Chen's men, and after severe torture, the other party confessed that he was ordered by the governor of the Grand Duchy of Finland, Hall, after nearly half a year of preparation, secretly recruited local Chinese assassins in Shengjing to carry out an assassination plan.

And the governor of the Grand Duchy of Finland is nothing more than an official in the middle, and the ultimate mastermind behind the scenes should be the rulers of Tsarist Russia, except for the current Tsar Alexander Nikolayevich, only his younger brother Grand Duke Konstantin Nikolayevich, only these two can command the governor of the Grand Duchy of Finland. ”

Feng Yunshan nodded: "This dog thief, twice sent troops to attack the northwest of the Chinese Empire, and before he settled the score, he actually performed another despicable act to assassinate me, and he came to be rude, Fan Ruzeng, your secret service department knows what to do!" I want you to start acting within half a year, and you will have results within a year! ”

The emperor's murderous words shocked all the ministers. And Fan Ruzeng's heart trembled slightly, he hadn't seen the emperor so angry for a long time, he hurriedly bowed to the ground and said: "Weichen obeys the order!" If you don't eradicate these two Russian dog thieves, you will have no face to be born, and you will have no face to see Brother Shengbang when you die! ”

Feng Yunshan nodded with satisfaction at this time, and said to Fan Ruzeng: "Many of your martial arts are taught by Shengbang, how can you say that he is also half of your master, the hatred of killing the master is not shared, you will do your best, I believe in you!" As he spoke, he stood up suddenly, turned to Zuo Zongtang and Luo Xuan, and said, "But the assassination alone is just revenge for the assassination of Tsarist Russia." And the two invasions of the Russian army, this revenge must not be avenged! King Zhongxin, Zuo Aiqing, tell me how about I prepare to send troops to Russia? ”

Luo Outline naturally followed forever: "Wei Chen should be the forerunner of His Majesty, and he did not hesitate to cross tens of thousands of miles across the ocean and destroy his Baltic Fleet!" ”

And Zuo Zongtang also said: "Weichen is also willing to lead the field corps across Siberia and the Kazakh Khanate, not far away, over the Ural Mountains, and into the Volga River and the Eastern European Plain." ”

Feng Yunshan sat down.

Luo Outline and Zuo Zongtang's words were promised to him on the surface, but in fact he had heard it, which was a euphemism to advise himself not to be reckless.

Yes, don't be rash, especially if it's such a big thing. Even if he is the king of a country, he can't go into military affairs for the sake of pure anger and personal hatred, otherwise, it is difficult to say whether he will win or lose, even if he is barely victorious, he will have to sacrifice countless soldiers, and there is no benefit and no benefit, and he cannot do things that will only bring damage to the Chinese empire and the people.

What's more, Feng Yunshan also understands that this Tsarist Russian Empire has a fighting history, not to mention that the Russian nation itself is known as a fighting nation, and now it is still the most populous country in the whole of Europe, if it were not for the recent large-scale expansion of the Chinese Empire, it would still be the country with the largest army in the world. The most important thing is that the territory of Tsarist Russia is too vast, and the geographical location of the country is mostly in cold regions, and the bad weather and responsible terrain make every powerful army that invades the territory of Russia fail miserably.

At the beginning of the 18th century, King Charles XII of Sweden invaded Russia with more than 40,000 troops, and after a winter, only 1,500 men fled to Turkey, and the rest were almost wiped out.

At the beginning of the 19th century, Napoleon the Great of the French Empire led 600,000 powerful French ** troops to attack Tsarist Russia, although he avoided the cold of winter, but underestimated the complex background and geographical and climatic conditions of Russia's great depth, as well as the ruthlessness and determination of the Russians, although the Russians could not defeat the French army, but they had enough land to retreat, they retreated step by step, harassed, and used the hot weather in Lithuania to wear down Napoleon's French Empire army, and when they were about to arrive in Moscow, Of the 600,000 troops, less than 100,000 remained. In the end, Napoleon and his army were forced to retreat, dying of cold, disease and starvation, and finally advanced into Russia's 600,000 army, leaving only 30,000 to return to France. More than 500,000 troops and 160,000 horses were buried, as well as all the more than 800 cannons of the French Empire at that time.

The defeat of Hitler in later generations was also triggered by the crushing defeat of the attack on the Soviet Union. This Tsarist Russia does not need anything, only needs its vast territory and the winter of minus 40 degrees, as well as barren supplies that make it impossible for rats to survive, to defeat all the invading enemies.

Therefore, Feng Yunshan knew that it was indeed a mediocre decision to attack Tsarist Russia, and he did not feel that he was stronger than Napoleon.

"That's it! If you want to attack Tsarist Russia, it is difficult to do it in a short time, although the empire has risen, it is not strong enough to this extent. I also understand what the two Aiqing mean. Rest assured, I will not be controlled by hatred. Feng Yunshan looked at Zuo Zongtang and Luo Xuan, and said: "Didn't Tsarist Russia be defeated by my field corps from the Kazakh Khanate and Siberia in the northwest this time, with their faces, I believe that the envoys of Tsarist Russia will come to Shengjing to ask for an armistice soon." Zuo Aiqing, Chuan Zhen's order, let the field corps participating in the war execute all the invaders who were captured, whether it was a general or an ordinary soldier, all of them were left. The abandonment of the corpses in the areas where the Kazakhs gathered, made them understand that the Chinese Empire was not only a country of ceremonies, but also a country of tigers and wolves. ”

Zuo Zongtang's face sank, and he responded: "Weichen obeys the order!" Your Majesty, can you let some of these Kazakhs execute the Cossack invaders together with the officers and men of our field regiment, so that the Kazakhs will be tied to the chariots of our Chinese Empire. Let those Kazakhs and Russians rise up hatred. ”

"Quasi-play!" Feng Yunshan said: "If Zuo Aiqing has any other ideas that can make Tsarist Russia uncomfortable, say it." There are also King Xinzhong and all Aiqing, you can talk about it. Even if I can't wave my troops to attack, I can't make it better. ”

All the ministers were stunned, and the emperor actually lost his temper!

"It is really difficult for the navy to make a detour of tens of thousands of miles to reach the Baltic Sea and attack the Baltic Fleet, the only naval fleet of the other side. Moreover, the European powers must not want to see the naval forces of our Chinese empire intervene in their Europe. Elsewhere, Tsarist Russia simply had no naval power. Therefore, the navy has nothing to do, and the only thing it can do is to block all the merchant ships of the Tsarist side in the Indian and Pacific Oceans, prevent them from passing through these areas, and block their trade routes. However, Tsarist Russia had no trade in the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, and their trade was concentrated in the Black Sea and the Baltic Sea, reaching the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean at most, and we had no way to control it.

However, didn't Tsarist Russia always like to invade neighboring countries? There must be many countries around it that fear and hate it, and if we can cultivate some to resist, it should be much better than sending troops on our own. ”

Zuo Zongtang also followed closely and said: "Your Majesty, what King Xinzhong said is good! In terms of the army, although it borders on Tsarist Russia, because its territory is too vast, and it is all some cold and desolate areas, even if it is occupied, it is difficult to use and develop, and even immigrants are very difficult. Of course, it is possible to occupy it at some cost, but the military expenditure and the troops stationed in this vast territory are too great. It is better to use the power of Tsarist Russia's more powerful neighbors, cooperate with them, collect some benefits appropriately, provide them with money and weapons, and even organize some mercenaries to fight for them, so as King Xinzhong said, to fight against Tsarist Russia. ”
