Lord of Ming Dynasty

But no matter how you say it, the battle on the front line will not start for a while, because the materials, soldiers, horses, and population of so many countries will not be able to reach the front line in a year and a half.

Therefore, at this time, West Siberia looks like a storm is about to rise, but it seems to be calm. All parties are gathering troops and supplies to build fortifications, and more troops and supplies are still on the way.

The cities and settlements occupied by the Qing Dynasty in West Siberia have 200 million troops and a population of 300 million. Others have not been arranged because of the evacuation of Central Siberia from East Siberia, and the supplies are only sufficient.

The efficiency of the Qing Dynasty is not as high as that of the Chinese Empire, so it is still integrating Central Beria, a newly recovered place, and rebuilding Central Beria. Stand firm.

Without the Chinese Empire's civilian husbands, soldiers, and material support, it would be impossible for them to transfer so many people here in just a few months, and only allow most of them to eat and have shelter.

Everything was in chaos, but unexpectedly, the Han people rebelled, and the Qing Dynasty was very angry.

But it has to be faced, Bretsk is a Manchu garrison, and at the same time there are observation troops sent by the Chinese Empire. Of course, the rebellion cannot arise, but the city of Omuminsk has become a place of rebellion.

The rebellions of the Han people in various settlements emerged one after another. When one place was wiped out, another place popped up, and there was a faint trend of development. The biggest one was the rebels who occupied the city of Omyuminsk.

This leader is Guo Qilin, and the other leaders are Li Cheng and Gu Yanwu. They established an organization called Tiandihui, whose purpose is to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. If it was a few years ago, when the Qing Dynasty was still in Yanjing , their rebellion is looking for death, and the Han people will respond to them. However, the Qing Dynasty was driven out by the Chinese Empire, lost Yanjing, transferred Liaodong, lost Heilongjiang, lost Vladivostok, Chita, and gave up East Siberia , and finally succumbed to Central Beria, as a person of the Qing Dynasty, a scholar or a commoner, they refused to give up, lost their land, and retreated step by step, which made them how to deal with themselves.

And what the Qing Dynasty suffered in Siberia, wars, wars, wars, and constant immigrants, were killed, frozen to death, starved to death, even the good-tempered they had to resist, but the resistance was in a name, so They thought of Daming.

Anti-Qing and Fuming, this slogan is not wrong, and many people will respond.

It was only a few decades after the Ming Dynasty fell, some old people are still alive, some middle-aged people who have grown up can still remember the sufferings they suffered, and the new generation has also been wiped out, and life is not happy. The new generation feels that the world It was too chaotic, and it was too difficult to live in the Qing Dynasty, so when this slogan was put forward, many people responded.

In just a few days, they gathered hundreds of people, and at the same time there were some Goguryeo people, Goguryeo people also had some ambitious people and people who restored the country. They gathered together and wanted to restore the previous country and nation, so half a month Within a short period of time, they killed the guard servants of the settlements who refused to cooperate, seized weapons, and won the support of the youths in the settlements. They gathered more than 10 people in a week, and developed in other directions. In less than a month, Gathered tens of thousands of people, swept the settlements with a radius of more than ten kilometers, and marched towards the city of Omuminsk. During the march, they were continuously responded and joined by the self-defense forces and servants of the settlements, and the number exceeded [-] at once.

At the beginning, there were some Goguryeo servants who resisted desperately. Later, the Han Banner Ding Army joined the resistance. Afterwards, they also revolted and came to join them one after another. When the team grew large, they could no longer be restrained by the soldiers and horses in the settlements and the surrounding garrisons.

So they came to attack the city of Omyuminsk.

The [-] servants guarding the city, the Han Banner Ding, and the Manchu general resisted for half a month, and finally lost and fled in a hurry, so this rebel army occupied the city of Omyuminsk.

It governs the settlements and various material warehouses within a radius of 10 miles. The materials brought in are enough for them to live for two or three years, and they have fought several large-scale battles of [-] people.

Chapter 994 The Burning Fire

Their deeds spread everywhere, and finally arrived in the not-too-distant city of Bretsk in two months. The Qing army, which had just arrived and stabilized, was taken aback, and quickly dispatched troops to quell the rebellion. No one of these rebels knew how to fight, so they sent [-] Goguryeo soldiers and horses, [-] remaining soldiers and horses of various ethnic groups, [-] Han bannermen, Han army banner soldiers and horses, [-] Manchu soldiers and horses, and [-] civilian husbands. Come to quell the rebellion.

Along the way, those small uprisings were wiped out within a few days. After the suppression, the counter-rebel army slaughtered the rebel civilians and servants in all the nearby settlements, and then left hundreds of people and thousands of civilians to protect the roads and The territory, keep moving forward, come all the way, not enough, they finally go astray, because the rebellion in Central Beria is not a single one, but a full bloom, and their counter-rebel army went to Upper Central Beria in Central Beria , Attacked up the Yenisei River, did not go to the city of Omuminsk, and gave Guo Qilin and Gu Yanwu a chance to develop.

After receiving the report, Kangxi sent another Manchu general to lead another route of the same [-] soldiers and horses. Along the way, some servants and civilians were recruited as civilian husbands to transport supplies and food. However, this rebel army developed to Central Beria again. There are too many soldiers and horses rushing to the beach.

Soon Kangxi sent thirteen routes to suppress the rebels, and finally 20 soldiers and 30 civilians arrived in the city of Omuminsk.

Under Chen Bingcheng on both sides, just like the Russian Expeditionary Army and the Qing Dynasty at that time, winter came.

How can we fight in such a day, so we can only retreat fifty miles to find a place to spend the winter.

And the rebels have no way to attack. They know how to fight. If they can't survive the winter, they will have nothing.

So the two sides stopped fighting, as happened in all parts of Central Siberia.

The Qing Dynasty is also packing up the first and last, settling down some people in areas without rebellion, and sending more troops to station in various places, transporting supplies to various places, hoping to survive this winter.

Such a rebellion caused the Qing Dynasty to lose 100 Manchus, 300 million Hans, [-] million Goguryeos and other ethnic groups. The loss of materials was huge. This kind of battle destroyed most of the materials of the Qing Dynasty or made the rebels cheaper. At the same time, the counter-insurgency also consumed a lot of supplies, and at the same time occupied the troops and horses that had just been assembled to reinforce the front line.

Fortunately, West Siberia is already bordering Mongolia and Central Asia occupied by the Chinese Empire, and the winter is better than that of Siberia to the east. Therefore, there is a letter to the Huaxia Empire.

In fact, these things had already been sent back to Yanjing by the observers of the Huaxia Empire stationed in Yunnan Prefecture when Zhang Qiang was in Yunnan Prefecture a few months ago, and they were sent to Yunnan Prefecture in an expedited eight hundred miles through the post station in Yanjing.

After Zhang Qiang found out, he returned to Yanjing from Yunnan Prefecture in half a month, and while paying attention to the development of the situation in the Qing Dynasty, he sent supplies to the front lines of the Qing Dynasty. The supplies and population to East Siberia have also temporarily stopped, and some further regions and the population of people bordering Central Siberia have been withdrawn from East Siberia. Now basically all of them have reached Heilongjiang, and Arrange for them to be stationed.

In this way, there are no more than 200 million soldiers and horses stationed in Eastern Siberia. One is to cope with the winter in Eastern Siberia, and the other is to fear that the rebellion in Central Siberia will affect Eastern Siberia.

At the same time, think of ways to prevent these things in the future. After all, Siberia is thousands of miles away and the climate is harsh. Once a rebellion like the Qing Dynasty occurs, it is easy for the rebels to breed and it is not easy to control.

Now Zhang Qiang doesn't know whether the remaining Qing Dynasty, which has frequent rebellions, can block the attacks of the Russians and the Western Allied Forces in the coming year or the year after. The information sent back by the intelligence agents sent to the West is not optimistic.

The Russians assembled 800 million serfs, 100 million regular army soldiers, and other Western coalition forces assembled 300 million troops. Although these are some mercenaries, some tramps who want to make a fortune, and businessmen who exceed soldiers and horses, if these troops If the weak Qing Dynasty is attacked, then the strength of the Qing Dynasty will be irresistible. Maybe Central Beria will be lost again, so what will the Qing Dynasty do?

Rebellion, or retreat to East Siberia again, and work for the Chinese Empire again?

Anyone's patience has a bottom line, not to mention the patience of a country. At that time, it will not be able to defeat the Russian Empire. The Qing Dynasty will rush into East Siberia, even Mongolia, and the Northeast, and it will bring irreparable losses to the Chinese Empire.

Zhang Qiang told everyone about this question. The entire cabinet believed that this might become a reality. Many people suggested that most of the people in East Siberia should be withdrawn, leaving only a few hundred thousand people. At the same time, additional troops would be sent. Wherever the horse goes, the people and personnel in the overcrowded Heilongjiang, Vladivostok, and Chita have to be evacuated and transferred to other places, and other things will be discussed after the threat of the Qing Dynasty and the Russians is completely resolved.

Zhang Qiang adopted all the opinions, and immediately ordered to implement them. First, the engineers and businessmen who built the road were retreated, the observers and soldiers stationed there were stationed, more intelligence personnel from the Ministry of Military Intelligence were stationed, and several contact stations were established.

As a result, about 600 million people hurriedly withdrew from East Siberia and Central Siberia. Before winter came, there were still 50 people and [-] soldiers and horses left in East Siberia. Immigrants to Inner Mongolia, the Western Regions, and Central Asia changed the main construction direction to Central Asia, the Western Regions, Tibet, Xinjiang and other places.

Been doing this all winter.

The population of Heilongjiang and other places has dropped from 100 million at the peak to 900 million. Among them, there are also assembled garrison brigades, which are distributed locally and stationed in Vladivostok, Chita, Lake Baikal and other places, a total of 200 million Soldiers and horses, guard against the Qing Dynasty and the rebels of the Qing Dynasty.

Nearly 100 million garrison brigade soldiers and 30 field army soldiers are also on display in Inner Mongolia and other places, ready to support front-line operations at any time.

From Vladivostok, Lake Baikal to Mongolia, to Central Asia, the Western Regions and other places, there are a total of 100 artillery pieces, [-] million cavalry, ready to deal with the backlash of the Qing Dynasty, or the Russians.

The excess population was transferred to Australia and other places to open up wasteland.

The Qing Dynasty was also making preparations for emergencies. Kangxi suddenly remembered that there were still some people who were not used. The captured Russians and the Western Allied Forces captured tens of thousands of people. Roads and personnel transporting materials are being distributed seven to eight thousand kilometers from the front line to Central Beria.

Use the existing materials to organize captive soldiers, and lead the army with the Han army flag, supervised by the Manchus, and prepare to attack the rebels in the coming year and suppress the rebellion. The treatment given to the captives is that after the suppression of the rebellion in the next year, the person with the most credit will be sent back, and the person with the least credit will be accepted. They became part of the servant army of the Qing army.

In order to be able to survive, these captives could only agree to the Qing Dynasty, and what if they didn’t agree. When winter came, there was no food, no horses, and it was impossible for them to escape.

Chapter 995 Han blood is not Chinese blood 1

Western captive soldiers equipped with the flintlock guns that the Chinese Army is now equipped with that have not been replaced for many years began to go on the road when spring came. There were Mongolian scout cavalry guarding and enclosing them. One was to guard against the captives. The soldiers fled, one is to detect the movements of the rebels.

The roads in early spring are still very muddy, and it is not very comfortable for men and horses to walk on them. After walking through, a winding black belt is pulled behind, which is the trampled land.

There are only a few roads in Siberia. They are the roads built by the captives of the Chinese Empire and the Qing Dynasty, peasants, and people of other races for the purpose of contacting and transferring immigrants from various places in the Qing Dynasty. These roads are equivalent to some rural roads in later generations. It's just a dirt road that can be widened, compacted, and can accommodate a carriage. There are still very few places like this. The road is from Heilongjiang to Chita, Vladivostok, or to the south bank of Lake Baikal. Where are the Chinese Army engineers? The roads built by the merchants were built to control these places, so that the soldiers and horses of the Chinese Empire could reach Siberia as soon as possible in the future. The standard is hard asphalt black stones, roads paved with cinders, and others are trampled by people and beasts. road, that's why it's like this.

The running scouts kept sending the news of the front investigation into the army, and there were also messengers who reported the situation in various places to the army, as well as the imperial decree of Kangxi in the rear, the orders and the situation of each yamen, this is a huge team, 20 Han The military flags and soldiers, the population and military strength of the Qing Dynasty were limited, so only the Han Chinese flags could be used, that is, those descendants of the Han who wanted to become Manchus from the bottom of their hearts, and 50 carefully selected captives of the Western Allied Forces. Veterans who have fought countless battles, they don't have many weapons in their hands, and they don't have much ammunition.

Their weapons and ammunition are all in the camp of 3 people in the Chinese army, and the Manchus will distribute them to the Han army flag, and then the Han army flag will be dismantled and merged into these soldiers and horses, and then the chief officer above will be Manchu People, the adjutant is Han, and the re-edited and assigned officer of the Western Allied Forces serves as the chief of staff to command those soldiers and horses.

Of course, the chief officers below are also equipped in the same way. At the battalion level, you are the commander of the Western Allied Forces. At the regiment level, there are Han Banner Generals, and there are still Manchu chief officers, Han adjutants, and Western staff officers at the brigade level.

The Han soldiers extend to the company level. Each Western company has ten Han soldiers as supervisors and one Han low-level officer. They are the supervisors.

The Han Army Banner has distributed a lot of soldiers and horses, but there are still three Han Army Banner Army with a scale of [-] people to supervise and participate in the battle. The officer leads three thousand soldiers, the division-level chief officer leads one thousand troops, the brigade and regiment chief officer leads three hundred troops, and the regiment-level chief officer leads fifty troops. Together with the Han people in the army and the Han army flag soldiers and horses, they can still Easily control these Western captives.

The Goguryeo servant army and civilian husbands, as well as some Han civilian husbands, were responsible for transporting materials and supplies. The Manchu generals were the supervisors, leading a thousand troops to supervise anytime and anywhere.

Such an army, together with 120 million Goguryeo servants, first went around the settlements of the Han people around the city of Bretsk, and the settlements of the Goguryeo people. It took a month to pass, but there was no one around. They resisted, so they walked fast, and when they were able to travel long distances in May, they headed towards Upper Central Beria.

Why not quell the biggest enemy trouble first, but go to the expense of thinking about quelling some less intense resistance?
