C1610 seed of hatred (2/2)

's fate was destined to be a tragedy. If Xiao Letian was not around, no one would be able to understand the essence of this kind of education theory, and as a result, a brand-new mental shock, or more accurately, an explosive shock, appeared.

This time, the War of the Far East was an important point in Tongzhi's life. His personality had started to change a little at this moment, it was very subtle but it had already become irreversible.

Xiao Letian had once made Zai Chun into an outstanding emperor of the Manchu, and had even thought of including Zai Chun's Manchu Group within the category of the Chinese people, but that was only one kind of hope.

After this war, Zai Chun underwent a bizarre change. However, during the delicate moment when the tumor was just born, Xiao Letian, the only therapist capable of removing the tumor, was not by his side.

In the end, fate still had its own set of principles, and reversing fate was easier said than done.

”Achoo …” Achoo... ”Achoo …” Three huge sneezes sounded out from the horse plow. Xiao Letian, who was wearing the bear skin coat, rubbed his nose and scolded, ”Who is talking about me? Or is someone scolding me? ”

The Amur River was covered in pure white snow, and the weather was already somewhat warm. In the distance, you could see traces of black lines in the vast expanse of white. It was the first ice and snow that melted towards the sun, revealing the pitch-black soil underneath.

Twenty thousand elite soldiers landed on the mouth of the Amur River. They did not need to go through the streets of the vanguard unit to find materials and make a large number of simple climbing plows. They used Mongolian horse s and dogs that were resistant to the cold to drag their soldiers and their supplies and equipment to walk on the ice surface.

Each of the soldiers was equipped with a sleigh, and they moved at an extraordinary speed across the flat surface of the ice.

Hidden Fog Kid's intelligence personnel had already created a detailed map of the entire Amur River last year. From the place where the Wusuli River flowed into the ocean, all the areas that could be used for the army to cross were all marked out in detail.

In theory, the ice surface of the Amur River in the cold winter Black Dragon River was very solid. Any place could be used for people to freely walk on, it seemed that the reinforcements of the Cossack could cross the river at any place.

However, an army of over ten thousand people crossing the river was completely different from a small army of a few dozen people. They had to consider the roads on the other side, the terrain, the structure of the mountain, and other factors when crossing the river.

No commander would be so foolish as to let an army of tens of thousands into a primitive forest, and no one would let a pampered warhorse ride the rugged paths of the mountains in troubled times.

Since the army was not the Expedition, their march must follow many rules. Therefore, the entire river defense line, the Qing Empire and the volunteers could only need to defend at least ten important crossings, the rest of the areas could not be used for the Russian army.

Every time they reached a strategic location to cross, Xiao Letian would leave behind a company or two's worth of troops and enough explosives. Along with wave after wave of explosive sounds, the half meter deep layer of ice would crack and explode into pieces.
