The boring life at sea finally came to an end, and the five battalions of Baoding Town and a cavalry battalion supported by Monk Lingqin to Guo Ye finally arrived at Qingjin, and the matter had already been reported to the Korean royal family by the imperial court through an expedited seven-hundred-li rush.

Naturally, the Qingjin side did not dare to slack off, and let the Qing army take the road, not only that, but the officials of Qingjin also handed over to Guo Ye all the information that had been transmitted from the Heilongjiang General's Mansion that had been collected in the past few days.

This is a precious timely rain, and without enough intelligence, no one dares to rashly attack the Russian army.

After carefully browsing the information, Guo Ye removed the useless information and said: "Everyone, the situation is now very clear, the Russian army has gathered more than 4,000 people in the entire area east of the Ussuri River, scattered in seven important cities here, relying on the control of the city, firmly grasping the situation east of the Ussuri River, not only that, Tsarist Russia has begun to migrate to this area in large numbers, trying to completely bring this area under the management of Tsarist Russia. ”

Gao Qi's eyes narrowed, and he scolded fiercely: "******, there are more than 6,000 people, and it has only been two or three months, and the Russian devils have killed more than 6,000 fathers and ordinary people in this area, and ransacked countless villages. Junmen, you say, how are we going to fight? This time, you must let the Russian devils know that it hurts! I'm going to beat them out of the! ”

Guo Ye slowly opened the military map, hung it on the wall, pointed to Aichun and Vladivostok and said: "Brother Qimou, and you, look, this Qingjin Port is only a hundred miles away from Aichun, where it connects the sea in the east, peeps into the northeast in the west, and deters North Korea in the south, it is a strategic place, and it must be one of the military strongholds of the Russian army." As for Vladivostok, which is a little farther away, it is almost two or three hundred miles away from us, and Vladivostok is almost the only natural ice-free port north of the Heilongjiang River, and I think that in the plan of the Emperor Alexander, he wanted to build it into a military fortress, and at the same time he could use it as a base at any time to launch a war of aggression against China! These two cities are important strategic and military bases of Tsarist Russia, that is, the primary target of our attack, in any case, Vladivostok must not fall into the hands of the Russian devils, even if it is smashed, it must not be left to the Russians! Now our main task is to find out the reality of the Russian army in the two cities, and then annihilate the Russians in one fell swoop and take back Vladivostok! ”

He Qimou nodded and replied: "Yezi is right, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the only way to win a hundred battles." Yezi, why don't we scatter the entire cavalry battalion of the prince and touch the bottom of the Russian army? ”

Guo Ye smiled slightly and replied: "Touch their bottom, that's for sure, but our main force can't just be idle, according to my estimate, in Aichun, the strength of the Russian army will not be too strong, and it is estimated that there are less than a thousand people, after all, they still have a large number of towns to occupy and control, thousands of troops, how can they be called?" The forces of the Russian army are bound to be scattered. While feeling the bottom, we can't be idle! ”

As he spoke, Guo Ye pointed his finger at the middle ground from Aichun to Vladivostok, and then said: "If our main force besieges Aichun, presumably Aichun's army will be difficult to support, and it will definitely ask for help from the Russian army, and the main force of the Russian army in Vladivostok will go all out to aid Aichun, and this road is the only way for them, the road is flat, the distance is the closest, and it is the most convenient and fast march!" We can ambush our cavalry battalion in this position, hehe, with mental calculation or unintentional, even if the Russian army does not die, it will be ruthlessly skinned by us! ”

The location that Guo Ye refers to is located in the Wild Wolf Hill, which is only sixty miles away from Aichun, where is a high earthen platform, condescending to look at the surroundings, it is an excellent strategic highland, the grass is full of wild grass, easy to conceal, from the Wild Wolf Hill to the main road, it is only a few hundred meters away, for the cavalry, it is instantaneous, this position is really a godsend!

Everyone nodded again and again, but He Qimou frowned and asked, "Yezi, let's ambush the Russian army?" This is not a joke, if the main force of the Russian army rushes to help, then how can the strength of the army be thousands or even more, we can ambush the Russian army with only a cavalry battalion of 400 people? Isn't there a bit of a shortage of troops? ”

Guo Ye laughed and said: "Brother Qimou, I once said that soldiers are not expensive, but noble, although our cavalry battalion has been in the army for a short time, but this military discipline, cooperation and courage have begun to take shape, the rest is the baptism of actual combat, a big battle, they will quickly mature, so there are not many opportunities, with cavalry to sneak attack infantry, even if there are few people?" Will the Russian army be able to surround us and annihilate us? Forgive them for not having that ability! ”

He Qimou replied: "Not only these, the strength of the Russian army is one aspect, and there is their firearms, if a cavalry battalion sneaks up on thousands of people, we will win, after all, big swords and spears, there is no way to compare with muskets and artillery, but if the Russian army is also equipped with sophisticated firearms, it is enough for us to stand it, not to mention, who knows if there are cavalry in Tsarist Russia?" ”

Guo Ye said in a deep voice: "So, this is the purpose of me to touch the foundation of the Russian army and see what the Russian army is coming from!" However, even if they have cavalry, they won't have too many troops, so don't worry too much, and even if they have firearms, hehe, they are not our opponents, do you know why? ”

He Qimou shook his head suspiciously, Guo Ye replied: "Because, most of the current Russian army is equipped with front-loading rifles, and the projectile must be stuffed into the chamber before it can be fired, but we use a rear-loading rifle, and there is no need to turn the gun head at all, in this way, our shooting rate will be much faster than that of the Russian army. We have already taken the lead in firearms! The Russian army will be defeated! ”

Guo Ye shouted: "Come on, the army will rest for a day, order all the cavalry battalions to disperse, and reconnoiter the enemy situation in the direction of Aichun and Vladivostok, you must be fast, I want to learn all the Russian intelligence in a short time!" There are also fifty cavalry drawn out to deploy along the direction of Qingjin to Aichun, as long as you find a suspicious person, you will be eliminated immediately! ”
