"Is there any movement over there in Tsarist Russia?"
"There was no large-scale attack, but we still launched a few tentative attacks," Wang Canjun said.
After hearing his subordinate's words, Xiao Qian began to think deeply.
From the looks of it, there is a high probability that Tsarist Russia does not yet know that the plague in their own country has been controlled.
They probably won't dare to go to the island in the short term...
Because in that case, they would also be affected by the plague! Then, this would leave a time lag for Xiao Qian.
This damn Tsarist Russia!
So vicious!
He, Xiao Qian, is not a master who swallows his anger. If he has a grudge, he will definitely avenge it!
If it were a head-on battle, no matter how much he lost, he could only blame his inferior skills.
However, this group of red-haired devils from Tsarist Russia actually used such despicable methods, causing thousands of deaths and injuries!
This is unbearable!
revenge!
Must take revenge!
The men saw what Xiao Qian was thinking and said, "General, fight back! Beat them up hard so that they, Tsarist pigs, know what pain is!"
"Yes! General, let's do it! Many of our brothers died this time!"
"Yes, the key point is that they did not die on the battlefield. This is the most frustrating part!"
"General, I am willing to be a vanguard! Give me a thousand men, that's enough!"
"General, I only want 500 men! If you don't chop off their commander's head, I'll show him his head!"
These subordinates were also filled with indignation.
They will never give up if they stand up and fight with live ammunition.
But the Tsarist Russian army using this method is unbearable!
"..."
A group of people were talking to each other in a chaotic manner, which gave Xiao Qian a headache.
"Enough!"
Xiao Qian shouted angrily, and the whole place fell into silence.
"Are you all pigs? Or have your brains been damaged by the plague? What are you going to do? They are on the ship. What, you want to swim to their warship and fight with them?"
"I even chopped off their coach's head, I'm afraid you just got into the water and fed the fish!"
Xiao Qian scolded him sternly, but all his subordinates lowered their heads, and not one of them said a word.
Looking at the dejected generals one by one, Xiao Qian couldn't bear to scold anymore.
In fact, they had nothing to do, they just wanted to vent. After all, everyone has been overwhelmed by the plague for such a long time. It is understandable to relax and relax, even if it is just to talk.
However, they can chat with each other, but Xiao Qian is not satisfied with this.
After suffering such a big loss, if Ushakov, a beast, is not shown some dignity, then he, a famous Dragon Flame general, should die to apologize.
"A fight must be fought."
With Xiao Qian's words, everyone became energetic, but it only lasted for a moment.
The general has said before that they are the army and Tsarist Russia is the navy. How can the army attack the navy?
"It would be great if there was a Yinzhou ship. If we could be equipped with a powerful weapon like the Yinzhou ship, we wouldn't have to suffer their indifference here."
The soldiers looked regretful, and now they only regret that they are not the direct troops of Liangzhou.
"Why, without advanced weapons, we can't fight the war? Have you forgotten the battles where we used the few to defeat the many and the weak to the strong?" Xiao Qian asked.
Having said that, the soldiers at this moment all want to say: Times have changed.
Although cold weapons are still the main force in war, with the emergence of firearms, the battlefield situation has changed.
The Qingzhou Army feels this the most.
After all, they had just withdrawn from the Korean battlefield.
Although they achieved victory on the Korean battlefield, they, the soldiers on the front line, were the ones who felt most how difficult the battle was.
Not only were those little Japs strong in close combat, they also had advanced firecrackers. Under the Japs' more advanced firecrackers tactics, many of their Qingzhou soldiers lost their lives to the firearms.
Although Tsarist Russia's firearms were not as good as those of the Japanese in terms of the assembly of matchlocks, their artillery was more powerful than those of the Japanese.
Although the soldiers said nothing, Xiao Qian knew what they were thinking.
"Advanced weapons are certainly a key factor in achieving victory, but the most important factor is people and artifacts. They can never catch up with the human brain."
"Wang Canjun, please report on the specific situation of the island guard."
"Report to the general, there are 40,000 people in the Coast Guard. These people are our elites. Even if the Tsarist Russian army invades, they can keep the Tsarist Russian army at bay!"
"I know, now, withdraw ten thousand people." Xiao Qian said.
"yes?"
The deputy general was about to agree when he suddenly realized something was wrong!
At this time, the plague had just been calmed down, and the island's strength was still relatively empty. Instead of increasing troops to the coast guard, they had to withdraw them.
Showing weakness to the enemy in times of crisis is not asking for death.
It's not just him who thinks so, everyone thinks so:
General, is there something wrong with your brain?
"Why, you didn't listen to my orders?" Xiao Qian asked.
"General, at this time, we should increase our troops, right?" the general asked with some confusion.
"Why, you were so aggressive just now, and now you are giving up when you really want to start a fight?" Xiao Qian asked.
"General, we are not cowards, we are just..."
"Don't be wordy, just obey orders. If anyone disobeys orders and doesn't respect them, I'll kill him immediately!"
Xiao Qian is not out of his mind, on the contrary, he is very clear-headed.
Tsarist Russia used the plague to cause a large number of casualties to the Qingzhou Army, so he would also use the plague to cause casualties to the Tsarist Russian army!
Of course, he did not use poisoning, but wanted to learn from Zhou Yu during the Three Kingdoms period!
Zhou Yu faked his death, which caused Cao's army to fall into a trap. Now, he also asked Qingzhou soldiers to "fake their own death." The garrison continued to decrease, making the Tsarist Russian army believe that there were very few garrison troops left on Sakhalin Island who could fight.
Ushakov is eager to win, but Xiao Qian does not believe that he will not fall into his trap!
"Admiral? Humph, I want to see how capable you are!"
