After sending Lin Jiafeng away, Zhao Qiang had no time to spare. He still had two things to deal with. One was the resettlement of the captives from Twenty-eight and Three Roads, and the other was negotiations with the Russians.
If these two matters are not resolved, Zhao Qiang will not be able to leave for Beijing right away. Although Zhao Qiang really wants to rush to Beijing before the Lantern Festival to go to the ancient lantern festival, but if these two matters are not resolved, he will not be able to go there with all his heart.
The negotiations on Nerchinsk's side are not urgent, because the best time to make a treaty has not yet come, and now is just a time for wrangling, so there is no need to delay. However, the digestion and arrangement of the population need to be done immediately. Only by digesting these new populations as soon as possible can we
It is guaranteed that after the war breaks out next year, Guan Ning's army will have enough troops to supplement.
The Battle of Yaksa broke out in May of the 24th year of Kangxi, which means that there are still one year and five months before the Battle of Yaksa. But before that, in the 23rd year of Kangxi, the Qing and Russian sides were in Heilongjiang.
Several battles took place. These battles were the prelude to the Battle of Yaksa and an integral part of this battle. In view of this, Zhao Qiang has always regarded the 23rd year of Kangxi next year as the start time of the Battle of Yaksa, and it should have been
Goro, who only arrived in the Far East the year after, arrived at Nerchinsk this year ahead of schedule. Zhao Qiang still didn’t know the consequences of the flapping of the butterfly’s wings. In order to take precautions, he had to advance the preparation time for going south, otherwise
If you wishfully wait until the Qing troops enter the city of Yaksa the following year before starting to move south, you may miss the best opportunity.
Change is not just one party, but a change on both sides and even three parties. Zhao Qiang changed the current structure of the Far East and changed the deployment of Russian troops in the East before the Battle of Yaksa. Naturally, this change was accompanied by a change in Russian policy.
, this change will inevitably affect the Battle of Yaksa. History often changes his original path with a small episode, just like the historical time-travel novels that Zhao Qiang often visited in later generations, where the protagonist is killed in an impossible place where he should not be.
He killed a person, and the person he killed was supposed to be the heir to the empire. In the end, another person ascended the throne of the emperor. What happened next was not something that the protagonist could predict in advance, because his prediction was based on that
The person who was supposed to be the emperor has now changed into another person. Naturally, he will know everything about this new emperor. There is no way to know what happens next. The protagonist will be like all living beings in the clouds, confused and confused. After all, he is traveling alone.
The time travel is not the time travel of a group. Without strong backing, everything can only be done by oneself. But to try to go against the will of nature by oneself is probably just a dream. Only when you know it will happen, you will plan in advance, and you will be able to do it.
Get the results you want. Once you don't know, then you become an ordinary person, and your life and death fall into the hands of others. All you can do is to change your own destiny, but you cannot change the destiny of others. Change
The fate of the times.
We must never let the history that should happen not happen, at least until we have full wings. This is a law for time travellers, as unchangeable as "survival of the fittest"!
Zhao Qiang did not want history to deviate too far from its original trajectory, which would cause him to lose the time to know what would happen next. The ancients often said that success requires the right time, right place, and right people. In Zhao Qiang's case, he now has the right time, right time, and right people.
, but there is no geographical advantage. The lack of one of the three will make Zhao Qiang's anti-Qing road very difficult. Now if there is a lack of time, what can he do if he only relies on "humanity"? What's more, the "humanity" of Guan Ning's army
It is built on the basis of victory. It is precisely because of repeated victories that the soldiers who participated voluntarily or were forced to move forward bravely and go back and forth along the path designated by Zhao Qiang. However, if something goes wrong, I am afraid that all the hard work will be done.
Chuang Ji can collapse overnight, and the forcibly recruited soldiers of all races disperse like birds and beasts.
The Guan Ning Army that Zhao Qiang wants is a force with strong faith, but unfortunately, his wish can only be a wish for the time being and cannot be turned into a reality. No matter how good the combat effectiveness of an army without faith is, it is only better than
The mob is better, but at most it is just a powerful bandit group. Zhao Qiang does not want to lead an army of bandits. What he wants to lead is an iron army that is the enemy of the whole world. However, it backfires. He must and can only continue to be his bandit leader.
, because the assimilation before establishing faith has not been completed, and the indoctrination of language and culture required for assimilation has not been completed. Time, the root of all problems is time. Zhao Qiang does not have the time to do it, nor the conditions to do it, military knowledge
There are too few people, and the proportion of people who can read and write in Guan Ning Army is extremely low. Therefore, recruiting some Han intellectuals is also one of the things Zhao Qiang needs to do when he goes south. There are many perfect ideas, but one bite cannot make you fat.
Before the conditions were met, Zhao Qiang could only wait and wait passively.
Now Zhao Qiang has changed this era too much, but he has been careful to keep the main body and only change the branches. The second reason is because he needs the battle of Yaksa, this war that can allow him to establish the situation outside the customs in one fell swoop.
.
What makes Zhao Qiang satisfied is that, at least so far, everything is moving in a good direction. Goluo's early arrival cannot stop the Battle of Yaksa to some extent, because Kangxi has an arrow on the string and has to take action. And he
What we have to do now is to build our own Guan Ning Army, plan everything, and wait for the best time to come. Digesting the newly captured people is one of the things that needs to be planned.
A total of more than 5,000 people were taken captive when they went south to rob food. More than 300 people were old and weak because of the freezing road. Now there are more than 4,700 people left. Excluding women and children, there are 2,400 men available for requisition.
There were many people, including more than 300 Yafaha Oroqen people.
Since there was not much arable land in various places under the rule, too many young men were needed to engage in production, so Zhao Qiang and Wei Ji finally discussed and organized the strong men of various ethnic groups who were working on the construction of Yask together with those who were kidnapped from the south to form a
The reserve division of the Guan Ning Army. The division commander is concurrently served by Wu Si, and the Oroqen leader Wu Erleng is the deputy division commander. The rest of the troops are arranged by Min Cao and do what they can.
The main task of the reserve division is to supplement the battle-damaged soldiers of the four major divisions of the regular division. It serves as a logistics operation unit during wartime. In peacetime, it is engaged in various projects after training, such as building cities, digging trenches, building roads, etc.
Since most of the people captured from the south were settled in Shouyi City, the reserve division was stationed in Shouyi City. After returning from going south to rob grain, Zhao Qiang made some slight changes to the previous layout. It turned out that Shouyi City was used as a
We will arrange the forward protrusion and be ready to abandon the defense at any time. Now we will raise it to the height of the bridgehead to build it and never give up. In the more than a month of going south, in addition to the harvest of food and population, Zhao Qiang’s biggest gain is the route.
By sending troops from Shouyi City to the south via Mergen Yue Sandao Tun, Heilongjiang, Jilin, and Ninggu Pagoda can be divided into two, cutting off any reinforcements from the Qing army heading north from Jilin, Ninggu Pagoda, and Shengjing. Therefore,
Repositioning Shouyi City is a top priority. In addition to the teaching brigade, Shouyi City currently has only one brigade affiliated with the rearguard division. Zhao Qiang plans to station the reserve division in Shouyi City and also plans to move the rearguard division to Shouyi City after the spring.
Once the cavalry division and the guards division fought with the Qing army in Heilongjiang, the two rearguard and reserve divisions stationed in Shouyi City immediately took on the task of cutting off Heilongjiang's connections with other places and cutting off all possibilities for the Qing army to reinforce Heilongjiang.
