In March, although the Central Plains have been in full bloom in spring, Siberia is still shining with cold phoenixes.

Lake Baikal freezes in January and cannot be thawed until May. It is now covered in silver, crystal clear and beautiful. It is the deepest freshwater lake in the world and has the largest water storage capacity. The lake is narrow and long and curved, like a crescent moon, so it is also known as the "Moon Lake". The lake water is clear and clear, stable and transparent, and is a treasure of human history.

On the northernmost lake of Lake Baikal, a row of small black dots slowly moved, a branch of imperial armed forces of more than a hundred people, and a thick Kajibian army coat was tightly packed, carrying bulging bags on their backs.

This is the 9th Infantry Company of the Third Infantry Regiment of the Royal Army's Sixth Army Task Force.

The Sixth Army was responsible for the inspection, exploration and the operation of eliminating enemy bandits throughout Central and Siberia, and also for the security of the various expedition teams and scholars that the empire explored to Central and Siberia.

After the Sino-Russian war broke out last summer, several expedition teams and expedition teams from Kulun and Chuktu were already heading north. Of course, the armed soldiers were accompanied by established armed soldiers:

Today, Lake Baikal has been under the control of the empire, and all the cities established by the Cossacks, such as Ulan Ude, have been regained.

I heard that some expedition teams had arrived thousands of miles away from Hubei Baikal.

Most of these expeditions were protected by first-level armed forces in the company, gradually infiltrating northwards, investigating terrain, detecting settlements, etc. After all, even the Russian map of Siberia, even if the most detailed maps obtained from its palace, the description of the Siberia area is still not accurate enough, and the empire needs to survey and investigate it themselves.

Siberia actually also lives in a large number of indigenous people, such as the branches of the Tungus people, the Orochi people, the Naï, the Udige people, the Urchi people, the Yakut people, etc., living on the vast land of Siberia, from the Arctic Ocean to the north, to the Yenisei River in the west, and to the Pacific Ocean in the east, there are these small tribes everywhere.

The indigenous Buryats living in Lake Baikal were actually a branch of the Mongols, but in later generations, gradually influenced by Tsarist Russia, began to write Latin letters, Slavic letters, and living customs gradually underwent major changes, and gradually formed an independent nation.

The current Buryats speak Mongolian local dialect, which is like the local dialect of Mongolian. It is not difficult to communicate with each company with Mongolian soldiers to start the curtain.

The Imperial Infantry Company walking at the northern end of Lake Baikal is not an armed force to guard the expedition team that can map the map. The main task of these purely force infantry companies is to contact the found indigenous tribes, mark the locations of the indigenous tribes on the map, and eliminate the remaining small groups of bandits.

Russian settlements and military fortresses throughout the Baikal area were removed, but there were still doors, Cossacks or Russian bandits.

The company commander of this infantry company was originally the battalion commander of the Cavalry Battalion of the Kizil Border Defense Regiment, called Chaganbari.

Of course, Chaganbari was not demoted, but he took the initiative to ask to enter the Sixth Army Task Force.

The Sixth Army Task Force was formed at the end of last year. Most of the soldiers were strong northern soldiers and hunting tribal soldiers. Among them, the Dahurs and Oroqen people in the Heilongjiang River Basin were also their main soldiers.

The task force abolished the battalion's first-level command and entered the northern region as an infantry company to carry out gradual occupation. It can be said that each company has the ability to survive in the wilderness in the snow.

Taking Chaganbari's company as an example, the entire company has 121 people, more than half of which are Mongolians in the Northern Region, Dahur people, Oroqen people, Xibe people, Hezhe people, etc.

Similarly, it is very common for a first-class battalion officer like Chaganbari to temporarily command an expedition infantry company.

The task force is not equipped with all heavy weapons, including light machine guns. Each soldier in the infantry company is equipped with 200 bullets. At the same time, the tribal soldiers are equipped with large numbers of bows and arrows, imperial military steel crossbows and other weapons to make up for possible ammunition shortages.

The food from the infantry company and the canned food they carry with them are not easy to use. In many cases, it is solved by hunting animals, digging edible plant rhizomes, stealing animal cave fruits, etc. A small amount of canned food, compressed biscuits and other military supplies are only used to solve urgent problems.

Therefore, the infantry company will not be equipped with kitchen squads, baggage teams and other logistics personnel. Except for each company with two health officers, the entire company is purely a combat organization.

There are few women in the task force's health staff, and Chaganbari's infantry company is an exception... Because his wife Aruna was specially approved to join the company, another health staff also used a Mongolian girl from Kulun:

The mission of the Chaganba Japanese Infantry Company was to go to the lower reaches of the Lena River two or three hundred miles away. I heard that there was a farming tribe of the Buryats. If it was suitable for establishing an immigration manor, the scope of activities of the empire's expedition teams could extend to the north for hundreds of miles.

For the entire East and West Siberia control and immigration will be a long-term and slow process. However, some immigrant cities, including industrial cities, can be established in the upper reaches of the Lena River, so that you can travel down the road. To build ports along the Arctic Ocean coast in the lower reaches of the Lena River, internal digestion is the same thing. Putting the large outline of the entire control area can be as fast as possible.

As the sky gradually darkened, the team was still moving rapidly.

Aruna walked in the snow with deep and shallow legs, wiped the sweat beads on her forehead, and then looked at the little girl who was following her closely. The thick blue-gray khaki cloth military coat wrapped her small crocodile, her legs and gray cloth shoes, a belt tied, a gray cloth military cap, and a few buttons on the brim of the hat. Two beautiful braids were exposed behind the military cap, and they were swung and swung at the temple road... very delicate and cute.

The little health soldier is called Haoruwa. He was just fourteen years old this year and was born in a noble family in Kulun. He entered Kulun’s Central Plains School at the age of seven. From the beginning of the year, the empire recruited a large number of health nurse soldiers in Mongolia. Xiaoruwa went to the health school and falsely reported that he was sixteen years old.

The prince's father, who is as beautiful as a child, has seven wives. The mother who is as beautiful as a child, is not favored by only giving birth to a daughter. Her mother is even more snobbish and has long hoped that her daughter can enter the imperial palace of the Great Emperor. If she can be noticed by the Great Emperor, her body will naturally rise, and even the old man's arrogance will be suppressed.

Therefore, she was as good as a child to go to a health school. Her mother was extremely supportive and helped to falsely report her age. She wanted to take the matter of falsely reporting her daughter's age to attend a health school during this year's draft. She would naturally give her points if she was in charge of the draft.

At the end of this year, the Empire began to recruit people in various health schools and health care training classes to the front line. It was as good as a child to sign up. Although her mother was reluctant, she ignored her. After all, she had never heard of a female health soldier who was sent to the front line.

Who knew that Xiao Haoruwa had excellent grades and became one of the few female health soldiers who were supplemented into the task force. Haoruwa's mother was anxious, not to mention whether it was dangerous or not. Although she heard that the troops she was selected to serve did not belong to the real Ziyan position, how could she still perform a show when she was hung up with a group of big men for a year or two?

Xiao Haoruo is not concerned about these things, and ran away from home to report to the military camp. Because of this, her mother wanted to go to the military district to make trouble, but was suppressed by the old man. If you say that you could use the scientific knowledge you had falsely reported in the palace to learn scientific knowledge as a good story, now in order to prevent your daughter from joining the army, the falsely reported in the age... If you are not properly dealt with, it is a big trouble.

After getting along for several months, Hao Ruwa and Aruna were like sisters, and she also told Aruna little by little about her affairs. Aruna was both funny and pityful, and even admired her courage and took care of this little sister meticulously.

However, Xiao Hao is very strong, and he never asked Aruna to carry her bags when marching. Now he is walking with a red face, but he is not behind at all.

"Prepare for a rest!" Chaganbari, who was walking in the middle of the team, shouted loudly. The soldiers from all over the task force were all soldier, so they communicated in Central Plains Mandarin. Even if they were a little bit crappy, most of these soldiers could say a few words, and they could understand simple orders more.

Chief of staff, Ma Yukun, from Anhui, was in his early thirties. He joined the Pingyuan Army ten years ago and graduated from the Jinling Political School last year. He is handsome and handsome. The chief of staff of each company of the Sixth Army Task Force is the main responsibility of supervising military discipline.

This is a valley of a small hill, which lacks the erosion of cold winds, and some trees can be cut down to make fires to keep warm. In fact, the entire Baikal Lake is a huge temperature regulator. In winter, the surrounding area is warmer than the city of Chaktu in the south.

After laying out the hay, Aruna and Haoruwa sat down against a dry birch tree. Soon a soldier brought firewood and helped light the fire with a red face. He secretly glanced at Haoruwa, but didn't dare to say anything, and ran away quickly.

Aruna laughed at Haoruwa. Indeed, Haoruwa is the treasure of the entire company. Many unmarried soldiers admire her and treat her as her dream lover. Even in a big city, Haoruwa is definitely a top talent, let alone in the military camp.

Naturally, I understood what Aruna laughed at, and she turned red with a little face and said, "I'll give him a piece of black bean candy and thank him." Black bean candy is a chocolate made in the empire. Nowadays, it is mostly consumer goods for noble families.

Aruna smiled and grabbed her and said, "Don't go, do you want people to misunderstand and like him?"

Haoruwa said hurriedly: "Of course not, Sister Aruna, you know mine."

Aruna laughed, "Yes, yes, I know you want to enter the palace to be a show girl, want to marry the emperor... Oh..." But his mouth was covered by Haoruwa. Haoruwa was so angry that he stared at her, "I know, I shouldn't tell you anything!"

Aruna smiled softly, and she was as angry as a child, "Besides, who said she was going to marry him? I just wanted to go into the palace to see what he looked like."

Aruna smiled and hugged her, saying, "I know, I know, silly boy, I'm teasing you."

So I was so happy that I pushed Aruna with my head dissatisfied, but I stopped talking. Aruna's arms were very warm and it was so comfortable to lie inside.

Two days later, on the bank of a river full of coniferous forests, I finally found a village of Buryats. A small tribe of about a few hundred people raised sheep and horses, lived in wooden tents, and could build iron tools.

The tribe leader is a thin old man, and it is not very difficult to communicate with Chaganbari. However, it took him a long time to figure out the body of Chaganbari and others. It is not the "human flesh-eating Rakshasa devil..." but a great country from the south, a great country that can expel Rakshasa devil.

Because Chaganbari's words were roughly in line with him, the old patriarch naturally felt intimate, but he was a little suspicious about what Chaganbari said that he could drive away the Luoji devil. However, no matter what, he still happily asked the villagers to slaughter livestock and entertain guests. Some villagers went to smash the riverside ice to catch some fish and cooked fresh fish soup.

The soldiers of the infantry company took out the last two Berga seals they hunted and gave them to the village tools to try them out.

In the tent of the old patriarch, Aruna and Haoruwa finally had a hot meal. When they were traveling north along the shore of Lake Baikal, the hunters of Budian Company liked to go to the lake to hunt seals. The entire coast of Lake Baikal was full of ice, but there were large pieces of ice floating in the lake. The Berga seals liked to go to the floating ice floating and became the most labor-saving prey for infantry hunters.

However, looking at their strange looks, Aruna and Yoruwa couldn't eat them. Many times they relied on biscuits to satisfy their hunger.

Drinking fresh fish soup, it was as good as a baby. It was so delicious. I looked at Aruna, and they stuck out their tongues and began to satisfy their cravings.

While talking to the clan leader, Chaganbari picked up some important words to Chief of Staff Ma Yukun.

From the map analysis, this Buryat tribe is not their destination.

When the old patriarch mentioned that there was a Russian wooden fort hundreds of miles north, Chaganbari was stunned, and there was no sign on the map.

The old patriarch said that his tribe was originally nomadic in the Russian Mubao area, hunting and fishing, and also with some barley and millet. However, after the Russians came, they had to move here, but they were often attacked by the Russians. They had to offer sheep and food every year, and sometimes they were plundered women:

When talking about the past, the old patriarch showed sadness.

In the Siberian area, the indigenous people were extremely afraid of the Russians. Not to mention their fierce and sharp firearms, the indigenous tribes' reputation of "eating human flesh" has already made the indigenous tribes frightened. In the early days, the Russians came to Siberia and were blocked from attacking the indigenous tribes. The food was exhausted. They really dug up the indigenous corpses to eat, and then collected... and then evolved into slaughtering prisoners and eating meat. So far, the "Rakshasa devil who eats human flesh..." has become famous.

The old patriarch said in grief and anger: "These slave demons should be given 200,000 coupons."

Chaganbari immediately inquired about the situation of the Russians' fortress. In the whole world, Russian immigrants from East and West Siberia are fleeing westwards, because most of the immigrants in this area are exiled, and armed immigrants composed of thugs are more or less bloody in their hands. They are completely different concepts and two mentalities with the Tsarist Russian immigrants in the southeast of Novosibirsk. These people will probably be beaten to death when they encounter soldiers from China. Even prisoners and real civilians have no idea of ​​settling here. Most of them are taking advantage of the East to hunt for gold. Now they are worried that the people of China can take revenge and can escape back to their hometowns and naturally flee westward. There are countless people who have died in the vast wasteland.

However, the news of Siberia is blocked, and some Russian settlements in the far north are afraid that they will not know the news of the war between China and Russia, let alone the Russians' defeat and retreating from the prosperity.

Although this wooden fort settled by the Russians is in southern Central Siberia, the same is true for the ride, and it is not on the official Russian map.

The old patriarch said that the wooden fort originally had only dozens of Russians, all of whom were horse-riding soldiers. In recent years, the number of people has increased. There are 200 to 300 people in Dazha, including many women, children and children. It is seen that there are more civilians who have moved here with their families.

Chaganbari and Chief of Staff Ma whispered a few words and turned around to mail the order: "The whole family falcon is ready to take down the Russian doghouse for a whole day:"

Luo Ruwa got excited and blinked her big eyes and asked, "Company Commander, can I shoot?" She had never seen a war before, but after several months of training before entering the company, the gunsmith yao was able to pass, and was equipped with six thunder cannons.

Chaganbari laughed and said, "It's not the turn of slander to shoot."

The old patriarch was startled when he heard Zhong Chaganbari say that they were going to attack the Russian Mubao. He didn't expect that they were coming to the real world and said, "This is better to make a long-term plan."

To attack the Russians from the south, with Luo Jie's violent devils, he must have listed his tribe as a suspicious target and retaliated with bloody revenge:

Chaganbari said helplessly: "Old man, don't worry, we guarantee that these Luofu devils can win. Don't mention such a few Rakshasa people. In the west, there are more than 100,000 Rakshasa devils, who are all real regular troops, and aren't we just stewed by us. Let me tell you, if there are millions of troops in the Central Plains, will you be afraid of the small Rakshasa devils? Old man, you will be the people of the Great Emperor in the future, and you will understand slowly!"

The old patriarch asked in confusion: "You said, aren't you the Qing Dynasty?"

Chaganbari smiled and said, "When did the Qing Dynasty happen? My great emperor is in charge of heaven and is in power all over the world." After thinking about it, it seems that the new dynasty has not been established for a few years, but over the years, the changes in the empire have been earth-shaking, and it feels like I don't know what time it is today and what year it is.

In fact, Chaganbari's conversation with the old patriarch was naturally not as simple and clear as "to follow the heavens and carry the power to the world...". In literal translation, he said, "The Emperor was the master who ruled the north to the Baibing Ocean, the east to the Pacific Ocean, the south to the South to the Turks. He was the Tian Khan of the Central Plains, Mongolia, the Western Regions, the extreme north, Tibet and other tribes. He was the incarnation of the gods on earth."

The old patriarch was stunned by the series of titles of the Great Emperor of Zhonglong Kingdom. Hearing that the "Zhonglong Kingdom" defeated the Rakshasa people in the West, he finally felt relieved and asked hesitantly: "Can the general defeat the Rakshasa devil in the wooden fort?"

In order to calm his heart, Chaganbari said seriously: "That's natural. Will I take my warriors to die?"

The old patriarch thought about it and asked again: "You have firearms that can shoot farther than bows and arrows?"

Chaganbari nodded and said, "The old chieftain can send someone to watch the battle tomorrow, and you will know what I said is abstaining from the truth."
