"Butchman Willow?" Muravijoch couldn't control his emotions. He untied the collar of his clothes and said anxiously: "Your Highness, why haven't you made a decision yet? Your position is too gentle!"

He said with a grudge: "This is the best opportunity for the Russian Empire, and we will have a chance to win the entire Yellow Russia!"

Prince Constantine asked with some anxiety: "This is a difficult choice. If we lose, we will have nothing to do and return to the territory that Peter the Great has set for us!"

Muravijoch thought Prince Constantine was too radical a few minutes ago, but now he said excitedly: "Send every Russian, every Cossack, every rifle and every bayonet, and we also need to pull every war horse, every barrel of gunpowder, and even every woman. This is the most glorious page in Russian history!"

He patted Prince Constantine on the shoulder and said, "We will form an absolute military advantage over the rebels, believe me... believe in God!"

"God blesses."

With Constantine's words, traffic flowed endlessly and continued to move southward, forming the strongest iron stream in Russia in the Far East.

***************************************************************

Almost at the same time, the main force of the First Army of the Hongjun had crossed Shanhaiguan and walked on the corridor between Yujin.

The scenery inside and outside the pass is different. It is midsummer, but the officers and soldiers can feel the chill of the northern country, and even the sky becomes a little gloomy. Most of the officers come from Jiangnan or Anhui, and Henan, where there are many people and few lands, and they look at the vast mountains and rivers in surprise.

If you can see extremely dense villages in the pass, you can see people at any time in your sight. However, on the cold road, there are few villages. Even if you can find one or two families, you will not see the figures of the prime of your life in these families. If you want to replenish supplies, you will not know where to start.

This is a new situation of combat. Both officers and soldiers feel deeply lonely for this strange northern country, not to mention the gloomy atmosphere in the sky.

"Your Majesty, let me and Commander Qu have the problems outside the pass!"

The person who spoke was Zhou Xiuying, the commander of the cavalry army, who followed Liu Chang closely: "It's already a big deal to mobilize two commanders in Jinzhou. If you work harder, it would be too unreasonable!"

Instead of smiling as usual, Liu Chang looked at the north with a serious expression. This army may be a large army, but in the wilderness outside the pass, it seems very small, and it can only be said to be a few dusts in the wilderness.

The entire unit consists of two infantry regiments and one cavalry regiment, with several artillery cavalry and baggage units. If they are in the battle within the pass, these 7,400 warriors are a very powerful force and can even sweep the entire province, but in the wilderness outside the pass, Liu Chang felt a heavy pressure.

"Captain Zhou, this is my mission!"

Zhou Xiuying urged the horse to move and said, "I know this is the responsibility of Xina. Who told him to send Bu Er Gang to Rehe! But it's enough to have us, it's really enough. You can't trust me, can you still trust the First Gang?"

The core of the entire army was not other units, but the first infantry regiment that performed the most outstandingly during the entire war, that is, the famous "Dragon Spear Regiment". The starting unit of the Hong Army had the best equipment, the best soldiers, the best officers, and the highest morale. Therefore, Qu Jie did not give up leaving the war without a little less force.

But Zhou Xiuying knew clearly that this man was the top priority of the entire Hongjun: "Your Majesty, believe me! If you bring two cavalry companies back to Beijing City to take charge, maybe you will encounter the Second Infantry Regiment that rushed from Rehe on the road."

Speaking of the Second Infantry Regiment, when it comes to the transition from the Second Infantry Regiment to Rehe, this was the most annoying thing for Zhou Xiuying. In view of the tense situation in Rehe, he arbitrarily transferred a detachment and the Second Infantry Regiment to the direction of Rehe. As a result, he had only one basic force in his hands. When Liu Chang entered Beijing, news of the setback in the Jinzhou battle came.

Neither Qu Jie expected that Liu Chang had made such a great decision on the Jinzhou issue. He only stayed in Beijing for a day, and before he even had a good rest, he led the Second Cavalry Regiment, the Second Infantry Regiment and the Sixty-Second Infantry Regiment as the basic forces immediately went out of seclusion to fight. Some troops were ready to go out of seclusion to fight before they even entered Beijing.

"When will the Second Infantry Regiment turn to Jinzhou, that's not the question I'm considering!" Liu Chang replied to Zhou Xiuying: "The question I'm considering is how to take Jinzhou and then take the entire outside the pass!"

His expression suddenly became excited: "Miss Xiu, you don't understand, this is my mission! A mission that I can't get rid of."

Zhou Xiuying had never seen Liu Chang so excited. Liu Chang held the reins tightly: "Siberia, Sakhalin Island, Mongolia, and many other places, which are the places I am destined to bleed. This is my mission, I cannot lose them!"

"You can't lose an inch of land!"

Liu Chang continued: "This is more important than the throne, life, and everything..."

He suddenly stretched out a hand at Zhou Xiuying: "I hope I can walk with you!"

"Go together!"

Zhou Xiuying had a hint of rosy on her face. He had never seen Liu Chang so stubbornly, nor did he see that Liu Chang had such a martyr-like expression on her face.

She didn't know what Liu Chang could not get rid of the mission, and just thought: "I am willing to walk with you, even if it's death!"

The whole person became quiet. In addition to the sound of neat footsteps, the sky became quiet. Zhou Xiuying even had a sense of suspicion that a large group of Russian cavalry would emerge from this wilderness, like a tide, and then attack this tired army.

You should know that this army started from Henan and Shandong, hiking thousands of miles, and some units even fought for 1,600,700 miles. Although they were the best combat units in the Hong Army, these long-distance marches also made them numb and exhausted.

I don’t know what kind of soldiers will appear after the gunfire started. Zhou Xiuying looked at the gloomy sky in the distance and suddenly had a bad premonition: "I am willing to walk with you, respectfully inspect your Excellency!"

Compared to the cold His Majesty, she liked the original inspection more, and Liu Chang had no intention of correcting her mistakes. Zhou Xiuying continued: "Our battle near Jinzhou may be a very difficult battle, and we are not familiar with the terrain there."

"Heishan, Dahu Mountain, Jinzhou, Tashan, Huludao..." Liu Chang said meaningfully: "I know a lot about these place names, please believe me."

Zhou Xiuying asked another question: "What is the half poem you wrote before leaving Beijing? The Long March is not an embarrassing day, and the battle of the Jin is a big problem. I denounced the roar every time I heard that bullying the big bird, and the Kun rooster laughed at the eagle... I only understand one sentence, the battle of the Jin is a big problem..."

Liu Chang did not directly answer Zhou Xiuying's question. He just looked at the empty field in the distance: "What do you think outside the pass?"

"The land is fertile, the forest is dense and the water is sweet. It is indeed the country of Tianfu!" Zhou Xiuying followed Liu Chang's words and said: "It's a pity that the Manchus did not manage well!"

Liu Chang immediately said loudly: "This is the land and house I give to the soldiers. Any soldiers participating in this battle, regardless of their origin, can get a share of their own land and house outside the pass. Do you see this black soil?"

"See, see!" The soldiers' moods that were originally tense and even numb suddenly became happy. Most of them were ordinary Chinese farmers and petty-city classes, so they naturally knew the significance of a land and house to their families.

"Every soldier who participated in the war, even if he only fired a bullet, could obtain at least thirty acres of fertile soil. The meritorious soldiers could get more. Look at this black soil!"

The fatigue of the officers and soldiers' war suddenly disappeared without a trace. Some soldiers simply grabbed a handful of black soil in their own hands. It was indeed the most fertile soil. Such a land in the pass can definitely be said to be valuable in every inch of land. I don’t know how much it will cost to buy such a mu of land.

However, outside the pass, such lands are everywhere. According to Your Majesty, it is equivalent to having fertile fields in five or six provinces within the pass. Therefore, the soldiers cheered and the stones in their hearts suddenly disappeared.

"But the enemy's troops still have to surpass us!" Zhou Xiuying's horse followed Liu Chang tightly. She said her worries: "I heard that the Russian barbarian soldiers across the river are said to be 100,000, with a real number of at least 40,000 to 50,000. There are 4,000 barbarian soldiers in Jinzhou City, and about 30,000 barbarian soldiers in Shengjing. The combined force of our troops is only 10,000. I have heard people say that Youyun's resentment."

This is the most helpless part of the history of the Northern Song Dynasty. The Northern Expeditions were not only fruitless, but even Zhao Guangyi almost ran out. However, Liu Chang said: "This black soil belongs to us, this is my mission!"

"Our..." Zhou Xiuying soon discovered the grammatical problem in Liu Chang's mouth: "Our land, our mission..."

The two of them walked together in the setting sun, but they quickly broke their leisure time. A quick cavalry rang loudly behind him: "The Second Infantry Regiment came from the Rehe Starry Night, only a day and a half away from us!"

Liu Chang nodded, and another cavalry came to report from the north: "Jinzhou Luosha soldiers were dispatched in full swing, and the forwards of the horse team have approached Jinzhou. Chen Yucheng's division commander, and Ren Zhu's brigade commander asked His Majesty to make complete preparations!"

Liu Chang said nothing, Zhou Xiuying grabbed his hand. This was the first time. She said softly: "Let's go to Jinzhou together, this is our mission!"...)
