Chelakov almost slept in the open and ran to Boli without stopping. If you want to say that you feel a loss, now you feel that the biggest loss should be him Governor Chelakov. Because he had just entered Boli with his front foot, Smidovich's distress call came after him on his heels.

His Excellency the Governor of Chelakov was now even more frightened than he had been in Staraya Aihun and Zavechinsk.

For Tsarist Russia, Boli was an extremely important military town. To the east, it is adjacent to the Black Blind Island, which they now call the "Great Ussuri Island", and chokes the Heilongjiang and Ussuri rivers. With this city, China's access to the sea with the Guò Heilongjiang River is gone. Together with Sakhalin, which was also in their hands, Tsarist Russia lost a maritime threat from the Far East.

For this reason, although Chelakov moved the governor's palace to the old Aihui on a whim, it was only to be closer to his good friend Yishan, and many things were more convenient to do. As for Bo Li, he did not relax at all, and as his "companion capital", he was carefully built in all aspects.

As soon as he became governor of Eastern Siberia, Boli was no longer called Boli or Muravyov's changed Khabarovka, but was renamed Khabarovsk by him. Because the name Khabarovka is, after all, too stingy, and it is nothing more than a military fortress, which is completely out of the heart of the empire. He wanted to build Khabarovsk into the largest economic and military center in the Far East.

According to his vision, in just over a year, he gathered hundreds of thousands of imperial immigrants here, and at the same time vigorously developed the surrounding towns such as Fuyuan (Klemu), Mukedeh, Usurianga, Hule, and Gutri with Boli as the center. Moreover, he had already begun the exploration and design of the Trans-Siberian Railway, which would lead south to Vladivostok, with Boli as his throat. Not only that, although he himself is thousands of miles away in the old Aihui. But General Yasenin, who sat in Khabarovsk. However, he meticulously and conscientiously carried out his orders, not only carried out large-scale construction of Boli and its surrounding towns in the form of fortresses, but also forcibly recruited more than 30,000 soldiers from the large number of immigrants who came in.

Khabarovsk is surrounded by high mountains to the east and south as a natural barrier, and the surrounding military fortresses are "strong and strong", so it is no wonder that Chelakov was so relieved at first.

But now, this qiē seems to have changed.

In order to reinforce the Zavechinsk direction, in accordance with his order, Lord Yasenin urgently mobilized almost 10,000 men and horses from around Khabarovsk. Day and night rushed to Zavechinsk. Just as Chelakov was about to approach Smidovich, this huge army passed by him. At that time, he admired this very much, and even used a short time to hurriedly cheer up the commanders of this army. I thought that things would turn out like this again.

And the things that made him anxious and angry were not over here. When Chelakov didn't even have time to wash his face, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and threw himself in front of the map on the table with Lord Asenin, another thunderous report came, and Fuyuan was attacked by a large number of Taiping Heavenly ** teams. The shape was extremely critical, and he asked the Khabarovsk side to rush to the rescue.

"Your Excellency the Governor, something is wrong," Lord Asenin did not deliver the urgent report directly to Chilakov, but slammed it down on Table Mountain, "and the north of the central line is inaccessible to the mountains and dense forests. Anyone with even a modicum of military common sense would never torture himself by taking that dead end. ”

Asenin was a general from a family of counts. Natural identity is noble. On the question of how to build the land of Eastern Siberia. He coincided with Chelakov's thoughts. So. Progress in this area has been very smooth. But. When Chelakov brutally sent men from other places to support the middle line. He was uncomfortable. A few days ago. in other jurisdictions. There have also been Taiping Tian ** teams in the activity site intelligence concentration. Although it has not yet been found that the Taiping ** team has a larger movement. But he didn't dare to be the slightest negligent.

Really. Just in Chelakov with an almost stupid idea. He wanted to take half of his army and go to the middle line to block the Taiping Tian ** team. Prevent the rear road of the Eastern Front from being copied. South of Mount Hokteri. The area east of the Wusuri River. Suddenly, an unidentified army was speeding north. For subordinates this kind of report. Asenin was really a little crying and laughing. What unidentified army? This kind of time. Except for outlaws like the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom who dare to come and make trouble with themselves. Where will there be other armies.

In this case. Although he was extremely reluctant, he carried out Chelakov's orders. But there are also some discounts. Although in terms of numbers, he sent out nearly 10,000 horses. But these people. All of them were his newly formed divisions. Even he knows it himself. If this kind of army is used against the Qing Dynasty. That's more than enough. But if you really do it. I'm afraid this may not be the case.

Even so. More people is better than less. So. Ever since these centaurs are gone. Sir Asenen was terrified. His eyes were fixed on the mysterious force. He thinks. These Taiping Heaven ** teams want to go to the target. It should be Fuyuan. Fuyuan is the eastern gate of Khabarovsk. And Fuyuan threw it away. Stretching out the tentacles outside - Xu Ergu has an army of 4,000 people. Undoubtedly, it has become a turtle in an urn. Thereupon. He hurriedly increased his troops to Fuyuan. Oddly enough. After this group of centaurs made an appearance near Vyazemsky. Not only did it not move in the direction of Fuyuan. And suddenly it disappeared. Sir Asenen was confused. Where will they go?

It was at this time. The Taiping Heaven ** team in the west is as if the ground has emerged from the ground. All of a sudden, it suddenly converged on Xu Ergu's side. Xu Ergu has not been heard from since. These cunning Taiping Heaven ** team. Obviously playing a trick with himself.

It was precisely at this time. At that critical moment, he was given a salary. He was overstretched, but Governor Chelakov came.

"General Asenin, don't let their superficial signs fool your eyes!" Chelakov picked up the distress letter on the table and glanced at it, then propped up the table with one hand and pointed at the map with the other, "Their bluffing attack on Xuergu is just to hold us back." It makes us misjudge. Did not dare to carry out a rescue on Zavechinsk. And the attack on Smidovich shows their fear. Since their offensive in the direction of Xuergu did not stop us from sending troops to reinforce the Zavichinsk line, they had no choice but to use this method to attack and harass and cut off the rear route of the reinforcements we sent out, so as to affect the decision of our army to rescue Zavichinsk

Athenen chuckled at Cherakov's words, but he laughed at them, "My Lord Governor. Right now, Fuyuan under our noses is threatened, once Fuyuan is lost again, what will we do? Will we continue to save Zavechinsk, or will we invite someone else to save ourselves? ”

"Smidovich and Fuyuan must be saved!" Cherakov knew that the noble knight in front of him had always looked down on his experience in the great defeat in the Near East, and he was still salivating over his position as governor. From the bottom of his heart, he looked noble to Yasenin, except for facing the sand table in the military academy. Or the aristocratic generals who have been ruthless with some mobs, but have never experienced a real war, look down on them even more.

"Joke!" Asenin seemed to see the kind of contempt he had for himself in Chelakov's eyes, and couldn't help but slap the table, "What about the soldiers and horses?" What do I do to save it? ”

"Don't get excited, dear Mr. Lord." For the sake of the overall situation, Chelakov breathed a sigh of relief, not having the same knowledge as Asenin, "With your efforts, Fuyuan's defense facilities are basically complete, and now there are two thousand defenders, even if there is no foreign aid, not to mention more, it should still be sure to persist for the last month." So. As long as we are attacked by Mukdekh with a force of men and horses, attack the flank of the enemy in Fuyuan. There will be no risk if Fuyuan is cut off. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we first concentrated our efforts on expelling the Taiping ** team besieging Smidovich. Open up the connection with the middle line. ”

After saying that, Chelakov straightened up. Looking at Yasenin and smiling, "Don't worry, my lord, I'll send a message to Colonel Nevelskoy right away, it won't be long before Nevelskoy's troops and horses will arrive here from Nikolaevsk." These Taiping Heavenly Kingdom armies will be duly rewarded. ”

Due to the suddenness of the action, the Red Fifth Army Special Service Regiment and Qiu Yuancai's Red Third Division made unusually smooth progress, but the Red First Division and the Red Fourth Division encountered stubborn resistance from Tsarist Russia under the city of Fuyuan. Especially at this time, Qiu Yuancai's department, which had already occupied Smidovich, encountered a counteroffensive by reinforcements sent from the direction of Boli, delaying the pace of the Red Third Division to continue to advance north to capture Novokurovka.

In view of the actual situation on the battlefield, Tan Shaoguang and Cao Wenyu improvised to the situation, Lai Wenhong commanded the Red Fourth Division to continue to bluff and besiege Fuyuan, but Lan Chengchun's Red First Division quietly withdrew from the battlefield. Two days later, Chelakov and Yasenin sent out 4,000 reinforcements to rescue Smidovich, but all of them were wiped out on the outskirts of Smidovich, and none of them escaped the net.

Not to mention the loss of troops, Smidovich's fiasco also directly led to the rapid fall of Novokurovka, and this time, Chelakov and Yasenin, who had just compromised with each other, could no longer control their anger, and pointed at each other's noses and scolded like cockfighting.

"Bastard, stupid pig......" Chelakov slammed the table, glaring at the cowbell with wide eyes, "I have warned you again and again that Mukdekh's army must attack their flanks with all their might, but why don't you do it resolutely?" If your army is ruthless, how can they move the men and horses in the Fuyuan area? This is the army you trained? Waste, pigs, all *** waste and pigs......"

"Fart!" The green tendons on Asenen's forehead and neck bulged violently, completely losing his usual gentlemanly demeanor, "Go all out? They have wanted to eat the soldiers and horses that I went to rescue Fuyuan more than once, and if I had done my best as you said, the army that Mukedehe went out would have been eaten by them a long time ago. You have buried all my active armies, and you are responsible for the entire defeat of the war......"

If it weren't for the stricter situation, Chelakov and Yasenin might not have been able to scold each other for as long as they wouldn't have been.
