Only a quarter of an hour later, the herald came in with great excitement and announced, "The city has surrendered, and it is the lord of Ulan-Ude!" ”

"What?" Rong Lu was surprised, this was an unexpected joy! "Wouldn't it be a fraud?" The staff officer muttered.

"The city lord has surrendered and ordered the Russian soldiers to give up resistance, can't be wrong!" The herald said happily.

It wasn't until the army entered the city that he knew that Yang Yuebin was so lucky, and he met the commander of the governor's army that supported this place on the top of the city tower, and the city lord who was killed by Yang Yuebin with a knife was originally the city lord who was extremely weak without the owner of the six gods, and after learning this information, he immediately hung up the white flag and surrendered, so far Ulan-Ude also fell into the hands of the Qing army, and Rong Lu, who was originally prepared to fight a tough battle here, was very surprised, but he didn't expect his luck to be so good.

Yang Yuebin took the lead in attacking the head of Ulan-Ude, which can be described as the first achievement, Rong Lu issued the good news again within half a day after sending out the good news of conquering Nebuchu, and when the emperor received two good news, he just arrived in Kulun.

Taiji, the princes of Uriya Sutai in Outer Mongolia, knelt outside the city of Kuluntai to greet the emperor, the wind blew the banner hunting, the emperor got out of the carriage, put his hands in his sleeves, and tilted his head to look at the people kneeling on the ground, everyone shouted long live, the emperor was about to say something, Zai Cheng lined up the crowd, and shouted, "Long live the lord, there is an emergency military report!" ”

The emperor's face sank, what kind of military report? If it's not good, wouldn't it be a loss of face here? Many people had quietly raised their heads to see what the emperor had received, and the emperor frowned, then stretched, "Take it." ”

Zai Cheng obediently presented the report, squeezed his eyebrows at the emperor, at least knowing that it would not be bad news, the emperor relaxed a little. picked up a book, opened it, and was very happy, but quickly restrained the curvature of the corners of his mouth, and nodded slightly, "Wu Yundi is capable in the end." Then he put it down and picked up another one, "Why is this Ronglu here again?" ”

When he opened it, the emperor was stunned and didn't speak for a long time, Shen Guifen stood on the side with his hands down, glanced at the emperor, and Zaicheng coughed quietly, "Your Majesty." The Mongol princes are waiting. ”

The Emperor turned his head and laughed, "Good, good! As soon as I arrived in Kulen today, I had such a great success, which shows that the Mandate of Heaven is also in China! "The emperor is enjoying himself, and the others are confused, the emperor laughed for a while, and ordered Boyan Nemohu, who was waiting on the side." King Bo, you are the Counsellor of Uriyasu. Read both of them to the kings, in Mongolian. ”

The emperor stepped on the red carpet and walked slowly, and the Mongolian princes with different thoughts leaned down and listened to the report of Boyan Nemohu, and their hearts seemed to be flooded with monstrous waves. "Wu Yun Dik Nibuchu, Yang Yuebin Ke Ulan Ude!"

When the emperor arrived, the yurt was ready, and Qinghai came to say, "All the princes and living Buddhas are ready." Does the emperor see it one by one? Or call in together? ”

"I don't see any of them, just look at their appearance, I know that this is a ghost in my heart," the emperor said with a smug smile, "Now on both sides of the North Sea, Russia has lost three cities, and these people's minds should also be more stable - first call Shen Guifen, you, and Jiang Zhongyuan, King Bo also called in, and Zaicheng and others are also called." ”

"Yes."

Boyan Nemohu is the former minister of the emperor, and the hereditary prince of Horqin, he brought a few ministers in, first congratulated the victory, it stands to reason that there is a great victory to deliver Ruyi, but outside, can not be delivered, Boyan Namohu is very difficult, fortunately the emperor does not care, "Ruyi or something, it doesn't matter, when the time comes, I will take out a few handfuls from the treasury and give them to Ronglu, now that they have won two cities." Let's take a look at what to do next. ”

Bo Yan Nemo Hu didn't speak, his talent was far inferior to his father, and he just followed the old routine when he was on errands, a few people read the report, Jiang Zhongyuan was the first to speak, "Rong Lu exterminated 3,000 Russians in Erkou City, Wu Yundi exterminated 4,500 people in Nebuchu, Yang Yuebin also captured and eliminated 5,300 people in Ulan-Ude one after another, plus the fragmentary extermination, about 20,000 people, Russia has deployed less than 30,000 regular troops in Siberia, and at most a few thousand men and horses, It is impossible for Russia to turn over in the North Sea just by relying on these thousands of people. Siberia is vast, and even if you have to send troops from somewhere else, it will take a long time, and in another month, the north will be frozen, and even if Russia gets to this place, it will be powerless. ”

"Then what do you mean, continue to let them attack north?" The Emperor said.

Jiang Zhongyuan avoided speaking, "In the Beihai area, except for these three cities, there are no other strategic places, and Russia has no heavy troops, so if it wants to continue the attack, it can also be continued." ”

"The minister thinks that he can continue to go north," Qinghai is ambitious, "now that he has obtained the land of the south of the North Sea, since he has destroyed the Russian army, why not continue to go north and collect the land of the North Sea?" Taking advantage of the fact that the Russians are at war with other countries in the west, and Kokand is not able to live in peace, it is a good time for us. As long as you take a break for a while, you can do a lot before the heavy snowfall. ”

Shen Guifen shook his head slightly, "The two cities of Beihai have been conquered, this battle can be called perfect, Wu Yundi rushed thousands of miles to attack Nebuchu and fought in one go, such a victory, the dynasty is rare, the essence of military equipment, compared to the Holy Ancestor Dynasty, it is not much better, the emperor, the minister thinks, it is better to hold on to the three cities, and wait for the diplomatic intervention of the prime minister's yamen." ”

"Why diplomatic intervention?"

"Although China has not yet declared war on Russia, we have entered the territory of Russia, this is a fact, from the map, the three cities here in Beihai have been captured, and the Russians have no stronghold in the south of Beihai.

"The trend of the North Sea, the further north it is, the more barren it is, Jiang Shangshu said very much, the Beihai area, can be called a rich land, just in the three cities, below the three cities, the rest is not to worry, if you want to continue to train troops in the future, you can choose a good time to continue to go north, not in a hurry."

"Although the place is not much, but it is already a rich land in Siberia, the minister thinks that it is good to get benefits, these places are good to live and operate for a period of time, and then try to find other places, it is the best, moreover, it is not appropriate to provoke the Russians very much, if Russia talks to the Turks in the west first, it is not beneficial to the country to turn around and work with us for a long time. After China took these places, naturally there was no reason to send them back to the Russians, and it was time for Prime Minister Yamen to negotiate. (To be continued.) )
