C996 Imperial Strategy (1/2)

The Haishenwai was called the Vladimir Woostock, it was the most important city in the Tsar's Russia. It was known as the Crimean War's biggest harvest after failure.

The highest military officer of the Russian Army, Ji Yaqinke, and brigadier general Ai Tuolin stood side by side on the newly constructed seawall, as they coldly looked at the bay.

Rows of Russian Army's main soldiers who were on the battleship docked at the side of the bridge walked down. The pier was filled with the sounds of leather boots and loud shouting soldiers with bad tempers. The Chinese civilians who were carrying the supplies didn't dare to make a sound even after receiving the whips, and could only carefully avoid these God of Slaughterers.

These soldiers who had just finished fighting the Qingdao thought that they would get a long winter vacation, but they did not expect that they would suddenly receive the order to head north again.

”This group of damned Chinese, they actually managed to create such a huge rebellion. We must kill all of them and leave no one alive …”

Russian soldier was not afraid of war, guns, rain, blades and shadows were all common occurrence for them, but what they hated the most was trouble, repeating the monotonous work was enough to drive them crazy.

Sitting on the deck and playing cards for a while, he would be able to join the war. If he died, he would just treat it as sleeping, and if he survived, he would be rewarded for his military merits. In any case, it would be clear who would win the battle within a day.

However, conquering the three-way groove was annoying. Since the Haishenwai did not have enough war horses for them to ride, these old men could only rely on their own legs to travel more than 100 kilometers to find the enemy for a duel.

If the enemies were still there, that would be for the best, but even idiots knew that three-way groove was different. One was an island, the other was a continent.

Should he chase them? Capturing yellow monkeys all over the mountains was already a very troublesome task. It was too troublesome, really too troublesome.

Ji Yaqinke and Ai Tuolin were acutely aware of the change in the soldiers' mentality. Of course, they knew what kind of people their subordinates were.

The Tsar's warriors were not cowards on the battlefield, but they were lazy pigs in their lives. They did not want to farm, they did not want to produce, and they could not do some patient work. They drank, fought, gambled, played with women … It was a headache to think about leading such a group of soldiers.

Ji Yaqinke took out a silver jug of wine from her bosom. After drinking a small mouthful, she handed it over to Ai Tuolin and said, ”This is the good Moscow wine that I brought back when I was in office. I don't have much left to taste …”

Just as the high level vodka entered his throat, a hot line flowed down his esophagus. Ai Tuolin let out a long sigh of relief, ”I really miss my hometown. I wonder when Moscow will transfer me back …”

Ji Yaqinke did not answer his question. Instead, she gave some pointers to the magnificent scenery of the mountains and rivers in front of him and said with a sigh, ”What a vast expanse of land this is. And with it being so bountiful and fertile, it's really hard to imagine why God would give pagan so much wealth …”
