After the Northern Navy boarded the ship and left, the residents of Nerchinsk City dared to go out of their homes and churches. Those who hurried home from the church were surprised to find that nothing was missing from their homes.
The cows plowing the fields stayed in the stables, the chickens, ducks and geese were noisy in their nests, and there was no sign that the door of their house had been forcibly broken open. After entering the house and taking a closer look, there were grains and even precious porcelain stored in the house.
, there are also many silver products.
These people have been fighting with great fanfare for a long time, but they don’t grab anything. What are they trying to do?
Polya carefully walked out of the cabin of the catamaran passenger ship. The sailor on the deck gave this beautiful little girl a kind smile. She glanced at him timidly and walked slowly to the bow. She saw people on both sides constantly looking at each other.
As the river bank and woods receded, Polya suddenly felt a little dizzy, and it took a while to get used to it.
She leaned on the railing and turned her head to look at the top of the cabin. She couldn't even see a mast, only a small white strip that she didn't know what it was for, spinning constantly. Then she leaned over the railing curiously and looked at it.
Looking outside the boat, she didn't find the dense rows of oars that she imagined.
How strange, how could this ship run so fast? Polya had never seen such a strange ship before by boat all the way from Yenisei Province to Nerchinsk.
Fan Tong was lying on the platform in the cockpit, looking down at the beautiful girl on the bow who looked like a Greek statue. His fat face wanted to be pressed against the cabin glass.
The girl was wearing a three-color brocade patterned dress with small sleeves and a slim waist, and a peacock blue square shawl on her shoulders, which just covered her snow-white neck and developed breasts. It was like walking out of an oil painting.
A girl with blue eyes as clear as a pool of water and soft and thick golden hair. Because she had been groomed in the cabin before, her original two braids were untied and blown by the river breeze.
Under the sunlight, it exudes an almost silver-white luster.
"Xiao Fan?...Xiao Fan!" Liu Sheng's loud voice came from the intercom. He shouted several times before Fan Tong's soul, which had drifted to the bow of the ship, was pulled back to the cockpit.
.
"What's up?"
"Take it easy, your dick is almost flowing down the glass. I saw it really from the patrol boat."
"Ouch~ Holy shit!" Fan Tong put down the phone and hurriedly walked outside the cockpit and looked forward. He saw Liu Sheng, who was sitting on the second patrol boat at the beginning, waving to him. Fan Tong picked up the telescope on the bridge.
Looking over, I saw Liu Sheng with a wicked smile on his face.
Fan Tong angrily pointed his middle finger at the opponent and shouted: "Da Liu, you are so bad!"
After he finished shouting, he looked towards the bow of the boat and saw a beautiful peacock blue wavering for a moment and then disappeared. The little girl was scared away...
In early August of the lunar calendar in the fifty-third year of Qianlong's reign, Beihai Town attacked Rongcheng and Wendeng counties in Shandong, and used several large ships to take away tens of thousands of people in Jiaodong. It was finally exposed, causing another uproar between the government and the opposition.
The Qing government had no way to deal with the large ships in Beihai Town. The sailing warships ordered by Sun Shiyi from the UK were still on the way, and the distant water could not quench the thirst nearby. So they could only send heavy troops to strengthen the defense of Dagukou on the one hand, for fear that the large ships in Beihai Town would go to Zhili.
On the other hand, he issued an order to severely rebuke Chang Lin, the governor of Shandong, and brought Wendeng, who had been released by the Northern Navy, and Qian Zongsuo, the garrison officer of Rongcheng and other counties, to Beijing. Along with these two people, there was also Chengshan Xun.
Shuiying garrison and two unlucky county magistrates.
As expected by Liang Zhenyu and Liang Xiucai, the biggest beneficiary of this incident was Li Jiaoyu of Rongcheng County. This person was not only praised by Qianlong in the imperial edict for "being calm in times of danger and defying defences," but also
He took over as the magistrate of Rongcheng County. As for Liang Xiucai, he also got the reserved quota for this year's Shandong "Scientific Examination" as he wished.
Seventy-seven-year-old Qianlong was frightened by Beihai Town's actions in Shandong this time. He finally discovered that the coastal defense under his rule was like a piece of window paper that could be broken with a poke. But at this time, even if he wanted to change, he was powerless.
.
After calculations by the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs, Qianlong found that just adding coastal forts and naval warships in Shandong would cost three million taels of silver. So from north to south, plus Liaodong under the jurisdiction of General Shengjing, there were a total of eight provinces
, how much will this cost?
Speaking of which, Beihai Town's attack on the Qing Dynasty from the sea still did not hurt. Although there was a lot of discussion in the government and the public at this time, the governors of each province continued to hand over documents to the military aircraft department, talking about how to defend Beihai Town from landing on the coast. There was no "sea power" at all.
" concept.
In the history of another time and space, the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which experienced the first Opium War, was poked with holes along the coast by the British. However, the idea of the bureaucrats was that guarding the seaport was not as good as guarding the outer sea, and guarding the inland river was not as good as guarding the seaport.
.Even Li Hongzhang in the late Qing Dynasty also thought of using defense as offense. In the so-called peacetime, he would show his power on the sea, and in the event of war, he would "retract into the seaport and use defense as war."
By now, the upper echelons of the Qing court have seen that the weakness of Beihai Town is its population. Whether it is northern Jiangsu or Shandong, Beihai Town has removed at least more than 100,000 people from the Central Plains in recent years. Therefore, someone within the Qing court once again raised the question
The leader of the "relocating borders and banning sea" policy was Wang Jie, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion and Minister of War.
But after Qianlong read Wang Jie's excerpt, he approved it with three words and understood.
Without him, the Manchu Qing Dynasty at this time is no longer the time when they just entered the customs. If they want to move the forbidden sea to the border, how many people's jobs will be destroyed? If Wang Jie's suggestion is followed, millions of people will be abandoned in Shandong alone.
acres of land. Let alone whether we can defend Beihai Town, the people of Shandong will have to cause trouble.
In mid-August, Qianlong received another report from the Heilongjiang General's Mansion. The Northern Navy defeated tens of thousands of Rakshasa in Heilongjiang City, and then sent its troops north to attack Yaksa.
"Let's fight. Let's fight to the death with Rakshasa. I am out of sight and out of mind."
In September 1788, Liu Sheng and others finally arrived at Chita on the fourth day after burning Nerchinsk. At this time, snowflakes had begun to fall from the sky, and the early winter in Eastern Siberia had arrived.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Compared with the industrial city in another time and space with a population of more than 300,000, Chita in this time and space is just a small village with only a little over a hundred people.
This place is said to be a prison, but there is not even a fence. Each prisoner family can be assigned a wooden house, which is both a residence and a prison. Anyway, it is surrounded by hundreds of miles of deserted land, and there is no place to go if you want to run away. Facts
The subsequent development of these towns in Eastern Siberia in Upper Tsarist Russia mainly relied on the large number of "December Party" who were exiled here in the 19th century.
When the Northern Navy fleet docked, no one in the village even alerted them. After waiting for the Northern Navy fleet to land first, they surrounded the only tavern in the village and captured several Cossacks and brewery owners who were drinking, and then passed Igor.
With half-baked Chinese and hand gestures, the captain of the Northern Navy who led the team realized that there were only a few local young men left, and in addition there were some women and children.
Before Suvorov's conscription order was issued, there were six Cossack families in Chita, 13 civilian intellectuals who were exiled here, and four families of farmers. With the issuance of the conscription order, the Russians
All the prisoners from all the prison villages and towns in Siberia were sent to Yaksa to serve as cannon fodder.
After all parts of the village were controlled by the North Navy, Igor, who had already taken refuge in Beihai Town, accompanied by two North Navy soldiers, began to knock on the door door by door, asking everyone to gather in the yard of the brewery.
Fortunately, there were not many people in the village. An hour later, the only remaining local women, children and a few exiles who had not been drafted because of their frailty gathered there.
Igor walked up to the stage set up with beer barrels, cleared his throat, and said to everyone present: "My name is Igor Ivanovich. Let me tell you some good news. From now on, from now on,
Chita to Nerchinsk (Nerchinsk) is no longer Russian territory, it has been occupied by the Chinese."
Damn it, what kind of good news is this?!
The Chita villagers present looked at the "Russian traitor" working for the invaders with expressionless faces and said nothing.
Igor looked at Fan Tong behind him with some embarrassment. He saw Fan Tong smiling encouragingly at him, so he turned around and continued: "The army led by General Suvorov suffered a disastrous defeat in Yaksa City.
, all the troops there have surrendered to the Chinese."
As soon as this was said, all the audience present raised their heads and looked at Igor in astonishment.
"Yes, what I said is true. In fact, I myself was captured by the Chinese in Heilongjiang City."
"Mr. Igor, what I want to know is, what will the Chinese do with us? Are they going to kill us all? After all, we have invaded their territory."
"Are they asking for food from us? God, we don't have much food."
"No, as long as you don't do anything that harms the Chinese people and don't tell the public, you won't be harmed. At the same time, the Chinese can sell you food."
"We don't have much money." A Cossack who was blocked in the tavern said coldly.
"Oh, dear friends, you can exchange them for sheep. I saw you raising a lot of goats in the village before. The Chinese prices are very reasonable. Two sheep can be used for 10 poods (163.8 kilograms) of wheat flour.
Change."
What? Instead of grabbing food, you can exchange sheep for food. The villagers present were stunned.
After this speech, when a woman with a try mentality actually exchanged two sheep for 10 poods of snow-white wheat flour, the hostility of the Chita villagers towards the occupiers disappeared.
They are all exiled to this miserable place, what else can they expect? Being able to eat snow-white bread is something they have never dreamed of.
Liu Sheng and others waited for two days in Chita Village. Zhao Xincai, Wu Xiha and his party arrived belatedly. They took two wooden boats built by the Xingkaihu Shipyard.
Under the guidance of a power planter named Xu Qingchun, Beihai Town's shipyard on the south bank of Xingkai Lake has developed quite well this year. Half of the Macao-Portuguese craftsmen and Danjia boatmen that Zhao Xin and the others brought back from Macau the year before last were sent away.
Once there, wait until the lake freezes over in winter before returning to Fuldan City to spend the winter.
The main ship type currently built by the shipyard is this kind of flat-bottomed inland river wooden ship equipped with a four-stroke diesel engine and an external propeller, with a load capacity of 500 tons. As Beihai Town carries out construction work to build warehouses and military depots in Khabarovsk in the middle reaches of Heilongjiang, a large amount of materials and manpower are needed
Then it was transported to Khabarovsk by flat-bottomed boat.
Zhao Xin's original plan was to build Chita into Beihai Town's stronghold in the upper reaches of Heilongjiang, but after seeing the environment here, he immediately gave up this plan. First of all, there were too few residents in Chita, and secondly, the local soil was very desertified.
Despite the small number of people in Chita Village, there are quite a lot of goats raised in Chita Village. Each family raises more than 2,000 goats, and the main source of local tax revenue is sheepskins and wolf skins. Although goats are easier to raise than sheep, raising them is
Goats have a shortcoming. When they eat plants, they dig up the soil with their hooves and dig out all the grass roots underneath, causing serious damage to the local vegetation.
The local residents raise sheep extensively, and not to mention the bushes around the village, even the turf is gnawed clean. Historically, by the mid-19th century, Chita had become a sand city, with sand everywhere.
When Zhao Xin arrived at Chita, he rushed into the tent and did not show up for two days. When he appeared in front of everyone again, everyone including Liu Sheng and Fan Tong were stunned by what he brought.
Ten giant mechanical monsters nearly four meters high, three meters wide and fourteen meters long were parked in a row in the wilderness one kilometer east of Chita Village. This was what he had prepared for this expedition to Irkutz.
The super land transport vehicle prepared by Gram, the DT-10PA-1 articulated crawler transport vehicle.
It is said that this kind of vehicle ignores any harsh environment and can walk on flat ground in desert swamps and even ice and snow terrain, and can even freely cross three-meter-deep rivers. The entire vehicle body adopts a fully sealed and fully welded structure, and the front and rear bodies are hydraulically articulated.
Mechanical connection.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! At the rear of the cab is a huge engine compartment. The engine is powered by a V-46-5 twelve-cylinder multi-fuel diesel engine, which is from T
The engine on the -64 tank is improved and has strong power. In order to cope with the low temperature environment in Siberia, this engine is equipped with a low-temperature start-up preheating system and can be started under low temperature conditions of -50°C.
Each vehicle can carry a maximum of 42 people, with a maximum land speed of 37 kilometers per hour. It can travel 500 kilometers with a full tank of gas. Considering the height and body shape of the Northern Navy soldiers at this time and space, if the car is crowded, it can seat five people.
More than ten people.
Fan Tong climbed into the cockpit and kept saying: "My dear, this thing is really exciting! Mr. Zhao, how much does it cost?"
"It's a silly number, two and a half million." Zhao Xin said with a smile: "It can be used in the wilderness, but if it is driven on the highway, the road will be completely destroyed."
Without further ado, the twenty-odd agricultural machinery crew drivers who followed Wu Xiha northward began to learn from Zhao Xin how to drive this kind of vehicle. The purpose of their coming was to deal with this.
It is not difficult to start and drive the DT-10PA-1. The steering wheel is operated and the gear lever is very small. The difficulty of driving this car is how to operate the hydraulic hinge to raise or lower the front of the car.
A group of members of the agricultural machinery crew who were accustomed to driving giant tractors studied hard for two days. After they were basically able to operate the vehicle normally and climb hills, Zhao Xin asked a battalion of the Sixth Regiment to board the vehicle and start heading towards Ulan-Ude.
Ulan-Ude in the 18th century was called "Verkhnokhnudinsk". The name Ulan-Ude came into being only after the 20th century. Since the 17th century, it has been the center of rhubarb and tea trade between Tsarist Russia and China.
; It is also the largest military and administrative center in Transbaikal.
Compared with Chita, the occupation value of Verkhnokhnudinsk is greater, because from here you can take a boat all the way south along the Selenga River to Kyaktu.
