What should come will eventually come. Russian did not come to travel, the targets of the invaders will not change, they will only change the time and plan.
When the Chinese won the war in Europa, when the Russians realized there was no more loophole at the negotiating table, they decided to stir up trouble.
If I can't beat you, Xiao Letian, can't I defeat the decaying Qing Dynasty? As long as they could occupy the fertile Ivu River Valley, they would have plenty of room to negotiate.
When the time came, they would negotiate with the Chinese and at the same time with the Qing Dynasty.
In October 1871, the sixty thousand Cossack s suddenly took action. They advanced eastwards along the frozen Ili River Road.
Along the way, all the towns fled for their lives. The terrifying legend of the Russian caused all the herdsmen and farmers to become completely terrified!
The 60,000 strong Cossack army was about to take action, this situation could not be hidden at all. The vanguard had already moved about 40 to 50 kilometers, and the guards were still bundling up the troops.
The long line of troops covered the entire Ili River like locusts. Under the cold wind and snow, these Cossack cavalry who were brimming with killing intent rushed towards the fertile city.
'Speed up... Speed up... This year we're going to spend the winter in a Chinese city! ”
”These weak and inferior races are just a bunch of bugs in war, but they are good at building houses, planting land, and grazing land!”
”God bless us, let us eat the fattest lamb!”
In the cold wind and snow, the commander of the Sand Russian Army was encouraging the soldiers.
Wherever there were Chinese people, there would be the most exquisite life. This was already the unity of the Russian!
The exquisite life of the Chinese? After all, those high level nobles were able to enjoy the best resources of the entire society.
Just like the Qing Dynasty, even if Xian Feng fled to the Hot River, he still had to eat a hundred and eighty dishes!
This was the delicate life of a noble. It was simply incomparable. However, the Chinese people, especially the commoners, were able to enjoy the exquisite and rich life of a commoner.
This was something that no other people had!
They were both raising sheep, so how could the Chinese produce a fat and tender lamb that didn't even have the tang of an animal?
Both are pastoralist horses, how can the Chinese make the best wintertime flavor with horse meat and horse intestines?
They were both eating food, so how could the Chinese use the cheapest price to make a feast that was matched with meat and vegetables?
Both are building houses, so why is the Chinese adobe house warmer and more durable than a log cabin?
The heaviness of civilization was often shown in the way of food and shelter, especially in the exquisite ways of the people at the bottom.
The same resources would not be wasted on the Chinese, who would even be able to make chicken feet into delicacies and eat them.
The reed grass that even cattle and sheep did not eat could be turned into wealth by the Chinese. Whether it was the reed mat or the warm layer on the roof, this kind of garbage in the eyes of the Russian could be turned into treasure in the hands of the Chinese.
This was a precious wealth accumulated from thousands of years of farming. It was a type of exquisite life that belonged to the lowest class of commoners. This was a miracle that the Russian s simply could not grasp.
It doesn't matter if I don't know it, I can steal it!
