Chapter 1123 The Strong Emperor of the Qian Dynasty

In the city of Yaksa, Grand Duke Rekov was paced back and forth in the room, and suddenly the door was opened. Captain Pushkin came back and saluted, "My Lord, I'm back."

Rekov turned around, rushed forward, looked at him and asked, "How is it?"

Pushkin shook his head, "I haven't seen the Chinese emperor. Their request remains unchanged. Let us ced the territory east of the Ural Mountains!"

"Damn it!" Rekov's face was terrifying when he heard the words, "The Chinese are too arrogant!"

Gao Huan did not receive the envoy and still insisted on regaining the northern province of Lingbei, and ruthlessly refused. Rekov's request to retreat to Nebchu.

In this way, the Tsarist Russian troops in the Jaxa Fort had to starve to death or surrender.

Rekov vented his anger for a while, and finally collapsed on the chair weakly, and fell into despair.

At this time Pushkin said: "The Chinese say that the Grand Duke cannot respond to their emperor's request. Let us send one person back to Moscow and let His Majesty the Tsar give a reply!"

Rekov was stunned when he heard the words, "The Chinese allow us to send personnel to Moscow?"

Pushkin nodded, "Yes! If you trust me, I am willing to return to Moscow!"

"Oh! No! Dear Pushkin, you have to stay in Yaxa!" Rekov suddenly stood up and walked over and patted Captain Pushkin's shoulder. "I think this matter can only be done by me, and only I can truly respond to the situation in the Far East to His Majesty the Tsar!"

In the fortress of Jakarsa, a decision was made soon, and Grand Duke Rekov personally returned to Moscow.

Gao Huan had no objection to this, but instead wrote a divorce letter, found a Russian-speaking Mongolian, appointed him as a special envoy, and followed Rekov to Moscow.

Outside the city of Jaquessa, Gao Huan rode a war horse, and there were many generals behind him, and flags were waving.

In the cold wind, Gao Huan was wearing a mighty golden armor and looked down at Grand Duke Rekov, bringing huge pressure to the tall and powerful Russians.

"Dear Emperor, I will return to Moscow and convey your meaning to the Tsar!" Rekov saluted Gao Huan respectfully, "However, before the Tsar replied, I hope that your Majesty can temporarily truce with Russia!"

Gao Huan raised his head proudly, exhaling white breath from his nostrils, condescending, full of the majesty of the emperor, "Hmph! Although I sent an envoy, I will not stop using troops! If Russia wants to protect the lives of Northeast Asian soldiers, please ask your Tsar to reply as soon as possible. My patience is limited, and I hope you will make a wise decision, otherwise I will seize the Lingbei Province."

Gao Huan raised his horse whip and pointed to the west and said with a domineering look: "At that time, my army will not stop at the Ural Mountains, and will hunt the Volga River with your Tsar!"

After hearing the translator's words, Rekov's face turned pale. The powerful Tsarist Russian Empire, and for more than a hundred years, had not been threatened like this.

However, Rekov did not dare to take Gao Huan's words as wind in his ears. He saw Gao Huan's confidence and felt tremendous pressure.

If he had to make an analogy, he felt as if he was standing in front of Genghis Khan.

Rekov's heart was filled with fear when he remembered the army swept across the Eurasian continent hundreds of years ago.

Gao Huan felt that Rekov understood his words, so he waved his whip and said, "You go! Don't waste my time!"

This was the first time that the generals behind Gao Huan saw His Majesty the Emperor. He treated the enemy so domineeringly, and he couldn't help but admire Gao Huan even more.

Gao Huan intended to drive Tsarist Russia's forces to the west of Ural Mountain, and not to have too many, and then turn Tsarist Russia into a vassal state that is a big deal.

At this time, the administrative means and transportation of the Gan Dynasty restricted the area directly ruled by the central government. Too large territory may not be a good thing for the empire.

Therefore, Gao Huan did not think of directly occupying Moscow, but established a tribute system to turn countries that could not be directly ruled into vassal states.

After Rekov left, Gao Huan ordered the army to continue to siege Yaksa and force the defenders to surrender. Then he appointed Dorgon as the captain of the Andong Protectorate, and ordered him to lead the New Eight Banners and the Mongols to collect Nebchu and other places.

After annihilated the main force in Tsarist Russia's Far East, there were no more Russian troops in Nebchu and other places.

Faced with the many strongholds scattered by Tsarist Russia in the Far East, the Central Army's encirclement and suppression cost a bit too much and the supply was not very convenient.

This kind of unconventional war was left to the Jurchens who were familiar with the terrain, and they asked them to remove the strongholds of Tsarist Russia, while Gao Huan was preparing to return to the pass.

In the Battle of Jaxa, the Gan army had a small-scale collision with Tsarist Russia. The Gan army defeated the Tsarist Russian army, allowing Gao Huan to roughly understand the strength of the Russian army and achieve his own goal.

War is the biggest driving force for the development of science and technology. Gao Huan fought for more than ten years, and Ganchao's military technology has improved rapidly. Gao Huan can be sure that Ganchao's military technology has no longer lag behind Western Europe, surpassing Tsarist Russia, Turkey, Poland and other countries.

This battle greatly increased Gao Huan's confidence and he got the answer he wanted.

At this time, Gao Huan ordered each department to come up with a detailed summary and asked the soldiers participating in the war to give their opinions, especially on the difficulties faced in winter combat.

He asked the generals and the soldiers' committee to make more suggestions in order to make improvements in winter clothing, logistics, etc., and prepare for larger conflicts in the future.

In December, it was cold in the Heilongjiang River Basin. Dorgon was ordered to continue to besiege Yaxa and collect Nibchu and other places. Gao Huan left Yaxa and returned to Shenyang.

From northeast to Moscow, after more than half a year of back and forth, Gao Huan could not stay in Jakarta and wait for the reply from the Tsarist Russian emperor.

Since the War to Destroy the Qing Dynasty, Gao Huan has been outside the pass for more than a year and must return to Jiangnan. Otherwise, over time, something will inevitably happen to Jiangnan.

As an emperor, if he does not care about state affairs for a long time and does not hold great power, the imperial power will be lost, and problems such as dictatorship of relatives, eunuchs taking power, and powerful ministers controlling the government will arise.

Today is Gao Huan's, and all the civil and military officials are Gao Huan's workers and managers. If Gao Huan is not here, the managers in the court will inevitably slacken off and even appoint trustees, erode his rights, and steal his property.

Gao Huan returned to Chenyang, moved into the mansion, and roasted the fire.

At this time, in the room, Gao Huan reached out to roast the fire and asked casually: "Gao Aiqing, what's going on in Jianzhou recently?"

Gao Mingheng replied while tweeting the flint, "Your Majesty, all the Jurchens of Jianzhou have surrendered, but Fulin, Bumubutai, and Obai have never heard of it!"

Gao Huan frowned slightly. Although the Qing Dynasty was in a desperate situation and could not cause any trouble, Gao Huan felt a little uncomfortable without catching anyone.

"Did some tribe accept them and lure them to hide them?" Gao Huan asked in a deep voice.

Gao Mingheng replied: "I am searching this aspect!"

Gao Huan nodded slightly, "I must deal with this matter as soon as possible."

The two of them chatted for a while, and Gao Huan suddenly asked, "My dear, what news will come from Nanjing during my war!"

Gao Mingheng said: "Your Majesty, you have done a great job in peace and prosperity in the country, and nothing big happened, but~"

"But what?" Gao Huan couldn't help asking.

Gao Mingheng took out a memorial, "Your Majesty, this is a memorial sent by Nanjing, saying that Kingsoft County may have been captured by the Spanish!"

"What?" Gao Huan raised his eyebrows and exclaimed, and hurriedly took the memorial to check. The Military Information Department got news from the Portuguese merchants that the Spanish seized Kingsoft County.
