Chapter 1046
In the civil strife in China, Tsarist Russia used the Wei army to unify the world, invaded and occupied the Wei vassal, and now directly attacked the Wei city.

Regarding Tsarist Russia's aggression, Wei sent envoys to negotiate, protest, and warn many times, but none of them worked.This made the Wei court realize that only by using force can the Tsarist Russia be expelled.

As for this point, Gao Yihuan knew in his heart that for some enemies, reasoning is useless, and violence is the only language they can understand.

Gao Yihuan decided to rescue the Western Regions, and the entire state machinery of the Wei court immediately revolved around rescuing Suiye.

Xuan Yiwei quickly sent information about the Raksha people. Gao Yihuan studied it all night, only to find that the Raksha people not only attacked Central Asia, but also entered the Heilongjiang River Basin in the northeast, and fought against the remnants of the Qing army.

This surprised Gao Yihuan a bit, because in his image, the battle of Yaksa had to wait for many years, and he did not expect that Tsarist Russia would progress so quickly.

However, thinking about the situation in Central Asia, Gao Yihuan immediately understood that after Zhungeer was defeated by the Wei army, Central Asia lost a hegemon, and Tsarist Russia naturally took advantage of the vacancy. Similarly, the Manchu Qing was defeated by the Wei army, and the outside of the pass was empty. The expansion of Tsarist Russia was naturally larger than in history much faster.

This made Gao Yihuan very startled, and realized the seriousness of the problem. At the same time, he had another question, where did the remnants of the Qing army that fought against the Raksha people go?

After reading the information about Tsarist Russia, Gao Yihuan felt the threat from Tsarist Russia and urgently ordered the cabinet to quickly prepare for war.

For a while, all the money, food, materials, cotton clothes, and equipment that were originally planned to be transferred to Liaodong stopped being transported to Liaodong, and were transferred to Gansu.

Fortunately, the temperature in Liaodong and the Western Regions is similar, and many materials can be used in the Western Regions, so there is no need for the imperial court to prepare again.

In Chang'an City, in the imperial palace, Gao Yihuan summoned the governors of the five armies and the officials of the Ministry of War to discuss matters.

At this time, Gao Yihuan stood in front of the sand table and listened to Li Dingguo say: "Your Majesty, most of our elite soldiers from the Wei Dynasty are now in the south. The troops that can be used at this time are mainly the Liaodong Army and the Guanlong Army."

Gao Yihuan nodded slightly, "Now that the weather is getting colder, the army in the south may not be able to adapt to the climate in the Western Regions, and it may be too late to mobilize. This time, let's mobilize the garrisons in Liaodong and Guanlong!"

An empire with a vast territory like the Great Wei has one advantage, that is, if there are northern soldiers, there will be northern soldiers, and if there are southern soldiers, there will be southern soldiers. Wars in various terrains, such as mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas, can find people who can adapt.

Li Dingguo continued: "Your Majesty, according to the information from the Western Regions, the Raksha people sent 13 troops, and there were 13 Mongols and [-] Jungar people, making a total of [-]. An army of [-], and another [-] from Mongolia, [-] from the various tribes of the Western Regions, plus more than [-] troops from the Western Regions, will also use [-] people to fight."

Gao Yihuan has been fighting for many years, but his main opponents are all in East Asia. He hasn't fought against Xiyi yet, so he is a bit uncertain.

"Which troops are the Ministry of War planning to mobilize to join the battle!" Gao Yihuan asked in a deep voice.

A Lang Zhong of the Ministry of War said: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of War has given Wu Sangui, Li Guo, Gao Yigong, and Hao Yaoqi four generals, and has issued a transfer order. The troops have already gathered at Jiayuguan."

Hearing the names of these people, Gao Yihuan felt relieved, and turned to Li Dingguo, "How is Dingguo going to fight this battle?"

Li Dingguo pondered and said: "Your Majesty, this battle is actually not easy to fight. Now we don't know the situation of Suiye City. Besides, the army has traveled thousands of miles, and the enemy army is waiting for work. It is very easy to be ambushed by the enemy army."

Gao Yihuan nodded heavily, "Indeed, Jiang Xiang was ambushed and almost wiped out. What can you do about Dingguo?"

Speaking of Jiang Xiang, Gao Yihuan felt angry. Back then, in Chang'an City, there were three idlers, Wu Sangui, Jiang Xiang, and Babu. He is disappointed.

Li Dingguo said: "If our opponents are only Raksha people, we don't need to worry too much, but the Zhungeer people are also involved, and the situation is not good. Our army has traveled thousands of miles. After getting the news, the enemy soldiers will definitely choose a place to set up an ambush."

The ethnic policy of the Great Wei is quite tolerant. There are not a few Mongols who come to Guanzhong, and Zhungeer has sent a lot of secret operations to Guanzhong in the past few years, and the Wei army has been mobilized. Such a big event cannot be hidden from Zhungeer. eyeliner.

Gao Yihuan had a sullen face, waiting for Li Dingguo to continue.

"I think that since the enemy army is most likely to see our troops first, then the army will be divided into two groups. The front army will let him ambush and draw out the enemy soldiers, and then the rear army will attack and find the enemy for a decisive battle." Li Dingguo said.

Gao Yihuan folded his arms and looked at the sand table for a while, "This strategy is indeed feasible, but we must pay attention to it. If the enemy does not notice that our army is divided into two groups, the two armies must be separated by a certain distance. In this way As soon as it comes, the front army must withstand the enemy's attack and persist until the rear army arrives."

Speaking of Gao Yihuan, he pointed to the Western Regions, "The Western Regions are desolate, and there are often no cities for hundreds of miles. The enemy's ambushes are mostly in the wilderness. The front army has no cities to rely on. How to resist the enemy's siege is also a problem."

Li Dingguo stroked the short beard under his jaw, pondered for a while, cupped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, I have also considered this point. The key to this battle is the front army, which must withstand the attack and at the same time consume the enemy army. The rear army has come There is a chance of winning. The minister’s suggestion is to deploy a large number of chariots and use the chariot battalion used by the Ming army to serve as the front army. In this way, when the front army is attacked, they can build a city with chariots and should be able to hold on until the rear army catches up. Come, but only if His Majesty is willing to take the risk."

Gao Yihuan also fell into deep thought, and suddenly asked after a while, "Who is Dingguo planning to lead the former army?"

Li Dingguo said: "Li Guo, General Li!"

When the Qing army attacked Guanzhong, Li Guo and Gao Yigong guarded northern Shaanxi and blocked the Qing army's attacks many times. Later, Gao Yihuan ordered Li Guo to be in charge of the Great Wall, and nothing went wrong.

Gao Yihuan still trusted him as an old superior, so he nodded, "Okay, let's follow this plan!"

In November, the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies quickly formulated a detailed plan and drew up a strategy.

Li Guo led a [-] Wei army partial division, as well as troops from the Western Regions, marching from Qiuci to Suiye. , The rear army opened a distance of eighty miles from the front army, and after receiving the signal from the front army, the various units of the rear army rushed to the battlefield as quickly as possible.

Of course, if the enemy did not set up an ambush, then the army would rush to Sui Ye and fight the enemy again.

At the same time, Wei Guo will also mobilize a partial division to go to the northern foot of Tianshan Mountain to attack Zhungeer and completely solve this opponent.

On the first day of December, after detailed discussions, Li Guo led the army first, and Gao Yihuan also quietly left Chang'an, marching westward with the army.
