"Your Majesty, this is news from Jinzhou."

Qian Dafu entered the imperial study and placed a telegram in front of Xiao Ming.

After scanning the contents of the telegram, Xiao Ming frowned. The telegram was sent by Qi Guangyi, but the incident happened five days ago.

"Has the telegram line been laid to Jinzhou?" Xiao Ming pondered the contents of the telegram and asked Qian Dafu about the telegram laying. Now Qian Dafu has become his secretary.

"Return to the emperor, it has arrived. This is the first telegram sent from Jinzhou." Qian Dafu said with a smile, "In addition, Chang'an to the west and Jinling City to the south have also been sent to the telegrams, and many transit stations have been built for this."

Xiao Ming was slightly satisfied with the laying of the telegram lines. Although war is the main color of the country now, the development of both technology, industry and commerce in China has never stopped.

Especially Qingzhou University, the division of majors is becoming more and more detailed. Nowadays, corresponding research rooms have been established in various colleges, such as bridge construction, civil engineering, applied chemistry, materials science, mineral exploration, mechanical physics, clinical medicine, etc.

From the last year of the seventeenth century to the thirteenth year of the eighteenth century, in fourteen years, he finally established a complete scientific system at the mid-to-late 19th century with the huge scientific library of scientific crystals.

More than ten years ago, Europe's technological level was equivalent to the mid-to-late 18th century, and it was a hundred years ahead of the Great Chongqing Kingdom at that time. However, even if he obtained some of his technology through despicable means, Europe's technology was still far behind him.

"Well, the progress is pretty good." He praised the progress of the construction, and then he thought seriously about the contents of the telegram.

According to Qi Guangyi, Gubat, the head of the barbarian flag, was preparing to cooperate with them secretly on the condition that his tribe would become a people of the empire and be able to live on the grassland.

If it were before, Xiao Ming would naturally not agree to this condition because he could not tolerate the existence of grassland tribes on the grassland that could threaten the border.

But now it is different. The emergence of machine guns has ended the era of cavalry. Modern barbarians are just a harmless little white rabbit to him. The only thing he needs is that the barbarians surrender to him, and from then on the grassland, sheep and raise cattle for him.

However, under Dorgo's rule, this matter was impossible. After all, his sons died under his military command.

In addition, he could not bear Dorgo and his tribes to surrender to Tsarist Russia, because this undoubtedly enhanced Tsarist Russia's strength.

Therefore, he even wanted to eliminate Dorgo at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains to prevent him from escaping to the Eastern European prairie.

Thinking of this, he drafted a war report for Qian Dafu to send it to Jinzhou, and then passed it to Qi Guangyi from Jinzhou. At the same time, he made Qi Guangyi more vigilant in the war report, because the Tianshan Mountains span the contemporary southern Xinjiang and Kazakhstan in Central Asia, and Tsarist Russia is getting closer and closer here.

Five days later, his order came to Qi Guangyi's hands.

"The emperor means to cooperate with Gubat to eliminate the remnants of Dorgo's golden tent." After receiving the telegram, Qi Guangyi and Feng Dongjin said.

Nodding slightly, Feng Dongjin said, "This Gubat is a smart person. I didn't expect to guess the emperor's thoughts."

"Yes, this Gubat is very good at judging the situation and knows how to adapt, but he is also a fence-bearing man. However, now that the empire is strong, he can only turn to us." Qi Guangyi said lightly, "Since that's the case, I will send someone to contact Gubat immediately, and I must annihilate the Jinguan cavalry this time."

Feng Dongjin was still hesitant, and he asked, "What if there is a fraud? We must always leave a hand to the barbarians."

After his words fell, the soldiers suddenly started to clamor. The two looked west and there were a large number of black spots directly in front of them.

Qi Guangyi looked at the telescope, and his heart sank. The black spots were the barbarian cavalry. He immediately shouted: "Prepare for battle!"

His order was issued, and the soldiers immediately got on their horses and pointed their guns at the rushing cavalry. What surprised them was that the cavalry all stopped at five hundred meters away from them, and the three barbarian cavalry came out from the middle of the cavalry and came directly towards them.

Qi Guangyi saw the person's appearance through the telescope and said in surprise: "It's Gubat's cavalry."

Feng Dongjin also saw clearly the person coming, and he also showed a look of surprise.

Seeing this, the two waited in front of the formation for a while, and soon Gubat arrived in front of them.

When he saw Gubat again, Qi Guangyi and Feng Dongjin were a little surprised. At this time, Gubat had a little bit of a barbarian flag head, and he was like a defeated general.

At this time, his tattered armor was stained with solidified blood stains, and within half a step he could smell a stinking smell mixed with blood.

Behind him were terrified soldiers and tribe members, all of whom were tired, with free fear in their eyes, and some injured soldiers were even moaning on the ox cart. All of this told the two that Gubat seemed to have encountered a major change.

"The head of the Gubat flag, what's going on?" Qi Guangyi asked seriously.

The Adam's apple flipped up and down, and Gubat sighed. He turned over and dismounted and said in a hoarse voice: "General Qi, Feng Changshi, something is wrong."

Qi Guangyi and Feng Dong looked at each other. He did not let the soldiers relax their guard, and they got off the horse and came to Gubat.

Standing against each other, Gubat said ashamed: "The two generals have changed their plans, and now our tribe cannot protect itself."

"Why is this?" Qi Guangyi asked in confusion.

Gubat was a little sad and angry, and he said, "It was originally possible that everything could go smoothly, but unexpectedly, my tribe had a traitor and leaked my plan to Dorgo. In anger, Dorgo personally led his troops to attack my tribe."

After pausing, he continued, "I was not afraid of him, at most I was both in the loss. But I didn't expect that the 30,000 Cossatt cavalry of the Tsarist Russians suddenly arrived. The 50,000 cavalry I led was defeated and could only escape west. However, Cossatt's army was still chasing. If it weren't for the generals under my command, I would not have been able to escape to this place."

"Cossart!" Gubat's words made Qi Guangyi and Feng Dongjin solemn.

"It's true that even the Tsarist cavalry of Tsarist Russia, these cavalry are also equipped with firearms, so we are no opponents at all." Gubat looked desperate.

It was a blessing that he could escape this time, but two-thirds of his tribe members died under the strangulation of Dorgo and Cossart.
