When Guo Ye received the order, he was still training, according to his plan, from each battalion in addition to the cavalry battalion of the four battalions to draw a hundred people to form a special operations corps, although in this era, military weapons are seriously backward, military science and technology can not keep up, but Guo Ye does not plan to just forget it, special forces forces, not only reflected in one aspect of the role, even if the comprehensive ability is worse now, but once the weapons keep up, the deterrent effect on the enemy will be self-evident.

After receiving the holy decree brought by Lu Xi, Guo Ye was a little puzzled in his heart, and asked: "Father-in-law Lu Xi, may I ask why the emperor is so anxious to announce that I am entering Beijing?" ”

Lu Xi smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Guo, you don't know yet, do you?" Something happened, the big-nosed Russians in the north suddenly sent troops, Heilongjiang General Yishan sent troops to meet the attack, and as a result, six thousand elites were broken up by others, and now they are cowering in Qiqihar, not daring to leave half a step, just before I left the palace, Yishan sent an urgent telegram of 700 miles again, saying that the Russian army was advancing by sea and land, and attacked Vladivostok by surprise, and the soldiers were bloodless, and took Vladivostok, and now the entire Jiangdong has fallen into the hands of Tsarist Russia! ”

Guo Ye stood up on the ground, he tried his best, but he still failed to resolve the historical trajectory of Tsarist Russia's invasion of the Northeast, east of the Ussuri River, that is more than 400,000 square kilometers of land, especially the narrow long slip, the entire Northeast has been sealed on land, Jilin and Heilongjiang no longer have an estuary, and Tsarist Russia must not be allowed to succeed!

Guo Ye said in a deep voice: "Father-in-law, is it for this matter that the emperor announced my entry into Beijing?" ”

Lu Xi smiled bitterly: "Yes, Lord Guo, now the Hunan army of Zeng Guofan is still fighting hard in Changmao, and the cavalry of the monk king has to protect Gyeonggi and guard against foreigners and bandits, where are there still famous generals in the court who can fight a war?" In desperation, the emperor can only rely on your thousand-mile horse, you have to be prepared, maybe, he will send you to Heilongjiang to fight with the Russians! ”

Guo Ye nodded, it seems that this battle is inevitable, even if no one in the imperial court lets him send troops, he will ask for an order to fight, and if he doesn't allow the order, he will pull up a team to resist Tsarist Russia alone, and make ****** Heilongjiang his own territory! The territory east of the Ussuri River must not be lost, where the strategic location is too important!

Guo Ye has handed over He Qimou and Chen Hai, and now Chen Hai's injuries have just healed and he has not fully recovered.

"Brother Qimou, Xiaohai, you heard what my father-in-law said just now, Lao Maozi and their horses rode on our heads again, this time, Lao Tzu didn't beat them out of the, this Guo character will be written upside down!"

Guo Ye shouted in a low voice.

He Qimou said worriedly: "Brother, this matter must not be overlooked, the Russians are brave and good at fighting, even if their cavalry is placed at the peak of the Eight Banners, they may not be able to win the chatter, our two or three thousand people in Baoding Town, they have only been trained for a month, and they are far from reaching the level of elite soldiers, and they are rashly pulled up, but they are afraid that the outcome will ......be unpredictable."

Guo Ye sneered: "So what, Tsarist Russia is only three or four thousand people, there are not many troops, and their weapons are not much more advanced than ours, as long as the plan is made, we are not without a chance of victory, no matter what, this battle will be fought!" Big brother, Xiaohai, the two of you are here to step up preparations for various war preparations, once the will is settled, let's go to Heilongjiang for a while! ”

After speaking, Guo Ye asked someone to lead his war horse, flew up, raised his horsewhip, and galloped away, even throwing Lu Xi behind.

Lu Xi smiled bitterly in his heart, this guy is too big, even if he is in a hurry, he doesn't need to be like this, our family didn't even drink saliva when they came here. However, now is an extraordinary period, Guo Ye is anxious, but he can't find fault with him like this.

He Qimou on the side hurriedly invited Lu Xi to the back hall of the General Military Mansion to rest.

Guo Ye came up to the war horse and galloped all the way, from Baoding Mansion to Beijing City, a distance of four hundred miles, even if he was in full force, it would take a day, after all, the war horse also needed to rest.

By the time Guo Ye came to Beijing, it was already noon the next day.

Guo Ye went straight to the Forbidden City, and Xianfeng, who got the report, immediately summoned Guo Ye to the pilgrimage.

Seeing Guo Ye walk in, Xianfeng said eagerly: "Guo Aiqing, the situation is urgent, our etiquette will be waived, I came to ask you, now that the Tsarist Russian army has invaded Guanwai, if you are asked to lead the troops to Heilongjiang and command the front-line battle, can you be sure that the Russians will be driven away?" ”

At this time, Guo Ye didn't dare to talk nonsense, after all, he boasted about Haikou at the beginning, and now he has shrunk his head, that is to bully the king, but there are still important ministers such as Su Shun and Wu Ren standing on the side; But if you agree to come down, it is not without hidden dangers, Baoding Town is only more than 2,000 people, while Tsarist Russia has three or four thousand people, it is said that there are still increasing troops, just with more than 2,000 people, it is difficult to defeat Tsarist Russia!

Guo Ye muttered: "Your Majesty, the minister does not dare to conceal it, if the minister is given another half a year, the soldiers of Baoding Town will be reorganized, and the minister will be eighty percent sure that he will successfully repel the Russians, but now the strength of Baoding Town is only trained for a month, and most of them are new soldiers, and the ordnance of Baoding Town is still an old cold weapon, if you want to win the battle against the Russians, the minister does not dare to say that he will win......

When Xianfeng heard this, his face was a little gloomy, you kid was talking about it at the beginning, and what you said was that the Russians couldn't come and go!

King Gong on the side was also a little unhappy, this kid is good at everything, but he is not stable enough, where can he talk in front of the emperor? Messed up now, right?

King Gong said in a deep voice: "Guo Ye, now the war is urgent, you were ashamed to say in public that you could defeat the Russians, but now that the Russians are coming, you ......"

Guo Ye hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, Prince Gong, it's not that the ministers are cowardly, but because there is no one in the hands of the ministers, before I took over, Baoding Town was known as the people of the eight battalions, more than 4,000 people, but when I arrived, I found out, where did the more than 4,000 people come from?" At best, three thousand four five? And there are many old, weak, sick and disabled, this month, the minister is making every effort to rectify the armament, after the rectification, now there are only more than 2,500 soldiers and horses in the town, including nearly 1,000 new troops, such a small number of troops, and the brave Tsarist Russia, even if the minister has the ability to win, there is no certainty of victory......"

Xianfeng nodded slightly, this is true, three or four thousand Russian troops, but it is very powerful, more than 6,000 people under Yishan were beaten by him, not to mention more than 2,000 people under Guo Ye?

Xianfeng asked: "Guo Ye, then do you have any good countermeasures to solve the military situation outside the Guanguan?" ”
