Kangxi was still busy contacting Shengjing and Horqin Mongolia to send troops to assist the Qing court in the fight against Galdan. The imperial envoy headed by Lin Ruhai had already set off for Nerchinsk quickly. There are about 2 people in total, and there are dozens of sub-cannons accompanying them.

In addition, there were more than a dozen sniper musketeers hidden in the hands of ordinary musketeers, and they went quietly with them. Except for a few imperial envoys, no one knew their true identities and arrangements at all.

The group of people finally reached their destination after two months of trekking. For a serious official like Lin Ruhai, it was undoubtedly an extremely difficult journey. By the time they stood on the border of Nerchinsk, they were already thin With his face off, his unshaven beard and disheveled face, he was a completely different person from his usual personable, refined and elegant appearance.

"Let's take a rest and wait for the news from Russia." Lin Ruhai glanced at several colleagues around him one by one, and said with a light smile: "My lords are already exhausted, take a bath and rest earlier, and nourish yourself Spirit still has a tough battle to fight."

Suo'etu, Mingzhu, and Tong Guogang looked at each other, but no one said much.

I'm so tired, I don't have the energy to talk and talk, besides, national affairs are in front of me, and personal grievances have to be backed up, otherwise if something goes wrong, it will be completely ruined. The emperor will not be used to this kind of bastard who takes national interests as a joke Son.

Early the next morning, the Russian envoy Golovin also arrived in Nerchinsk. He sent someone to make two demands before his ass was hot. The first negotiation location should be determined by them, and the second is the accompanying personnel of both parties during the negotiation. There must be no more than 300 people, and only swords can be worn, and no firearms can enter.

After listening, Tong Guogang laughed angrily on the spot, "The second point is fine, but why should you decide the negotiation venue?"

"Of course it's to prevent you from ambushing ahead of time." The tall and burly old Maozi had a natural expression on his face, but he could speak Chinese fluently, so it's no wonder that he was sent here.

"Afraid of being ambushed by us, you can claim the initiative? Where does this come from? Who knows what your plan is? In my opinion, you are probably the one who wants to take the opportunity to ambush!" Tong Guogang was not polite. He spat at him, and said with a sneer: "I know what shameful idea I have in my heart, but the villain actually filed a complaint first? You really deserve to be the famous Rakshasa!"

That last sentence is kind of interesting.

Russia is also called "the country of Raksha", which is a transliteration of the name. There is nothing wrong with it originally, but there is an evil spirit in Buddhism named Raksha who specializes in eating human flesh and blood.

Russia has repeatedly invaded the borders of the Qing Dynasty, not only robbing food and grass to seize land, but also killing people and raping women. Isn't it just like the devil who eats human flesh and blood?Putting it here, the phrase "Raksha" is really a pun.

The Qing officials present all raised their mouths slightly, but the old man didn't understand the other meaning of it very well. He didn't feel it after being pointed at his nose and scolded, and still had an arrogant expression on his face.

"This is our country's request. If your country fails to agree, then there is no need to start this negotiation. Our envoys will leave Nerchinsk tomorrow... Two days ago, Galdan sent someone to contact our country. Considering Our country has ignored Galdan for the time being at your request, and today it seems that your country does not have much sincerity, so our country has no choice but to choose a more sincere partner."

What was said clearly showed a condescending demeanor, a completely confident posture, and the threat was not concealed at all, it was really too arrogant and arrogant.

Immediately the atmosphere became hot.

Everyone on the Qing side was angry, and Tong Guogang, who dared to confront Kangxi face to face, even stood up "squeaky", kicked the table in front of him, and pulled out the saber at his waist casually. Want to do it.

The guards accompanying Lao Maozi on the opposite side also reacted quickly, and immediately pulled out their muskets and loaded them. The black muzzle pointed directly at Tong Guogang's forehead. The muskets confronted it.

The two sides refused to give in to each other, and a fierce battle was about to break out.

But at this moment, a gentle voice broke the tension.

"Lord Tong, let's calm down first. It is a rule that the two countries do not kill each other when they are at war."

Tong Guogang hesitated for a moment, but finally put away his weapons and sat down again, followed by all the soldiers who also put away their weapons.

At this time, Lin Ruhai turned his head to look at the old men, and said in a calm manner: "You don't have to be so nervous, everyone, drink a sip of tea to calm down, and let's talk about it after calming down."

Unexpectedly, the other party did not appreciate such kind words. Although the weapon was retracted, the tone was still condescending.

"There is nothing to discuss. This is what our country requires. You only need to nod or shake your head. Make a decision quickly and don't waste our precious time."

This time, Lin Ruhai's eyes also turned cold.

Suo'etu said angrily: "I've always been asking for a lot of money and bargaining on the spot. How can you be so overbearing? We are here to negotiate, not to lick our faces to beg for help!"

"Didn't you come here to ask for help?" The old man raised his eyebrows and smiled contemptuously. "No wonder you adults reacted so strangely. It turns out that your country hasn't adjusted its position yet? You have to make it clear that you are the ones who proposed the negotiation. Ask for our country."

"you……"

"Okay, I promise you all." Lin Ruhai said with a smile on his face.

The civil servant who was originally gentle and refined, now smiling so kindly, seemed even weaker.

The look of disdain in the old Maozi's eyes became more serious, he lifted his buttocks and walked away arrogantly, "Someone will come to inform the location tomorrow."

"What is the meaning of Master Lin?" Suo'etu couldn't help but said angrily: "The other party is clearly here to test our attitude. If we are weak at this time, the other party will definitely be more aggressive when the negotiations are serious. How can we negotiate!"

Tong Guogang also had a dark face and was full of anger, "I knew that civil servants like you should not be called to handle this matter! When I was in front of the emperor, Mr. Lin kept saying that he would not give an inch. I still thought Mr. Lin was a tough one. I never thought that this would be the case. In the first confrontation, even the person who came here was not a serious envoy, and Master Lin softened after just meeting him? What a big joke!"

Mingzhu, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke at this time, "Your Majesty ordered Mr. Lin to be in charge. Mr. Lin should understand in his heart that if he fails to meet the emperor's expectations this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain when I return to Beijing. Mr. Lin Still think twice."

"Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient." Lin Ruhai's face was still calm and unhurried, but his eyes did not have the softness just now, but were cold, "As Prime Minister Suo said, the other party is clearly here to test our attitude Yes, but the other party's words and deeds are enough to see the other party's true state of mind, it is completely gearing up and waiting to tear off a large piece of meat from us, the difference is only more or less."

"What is our top priority this time? It is to expel the old Maozi from our territory - it is to expel them, not to cut their flesh and ask them to leave. If this is the case, why waste any more talk with them? They want to see a weak Daqing, then satisfy them."

To confuse the enemy and lower their psychological defenses, and then attack them by surprise?

The remaining three people looked at each other, Mingzhu hesitated and said: "But the other party has insisted that they will decide the venue of the negotiation. It is clear that they have set up a grand feast waiting for us. Once we step into it, we will be imprisoned. I am afraid that we will be tied up if we have any plans at that time." If you can’t use it, you may even be manipulated and threatened.”

"That's right, they must not decide the venue of the negotiation!" Tong Guogang gritted his teeth.

Suo'etu shook his head helplessly, "Judging from the attitude of the other party, this point will not be changed no matter what, no matter how much you argue, there will be no result."

"Don't worry, the other party will not use force lightly unless it is absolutely necessary. The other party's purpose is to take away a piece of meat, not to form a deadly enmity with the Qing Dynasty. The current domestic situation does not allow them to be willful anymore." Lin Ruhai He took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Mingzhu beside him, saying: "Let's listen to their request first and wait for the time to come."

what time?After reading the letter, several people will understand.

The tribes of Buryat and Winkot in Nerchinsk have been dissatisfied with the brutal rule of Tsarist Russia for a long time, and are about to revolt. On the other side, the Khalkha Mongolia, which was defeated by the Russian army and Galdan, fled. Ren also gritted his teeth and wanted revenge to regain lost ground, and was about to join the envoys.

Once these parties attack the Russian army together, it will be the best time for the envoys of the Qing court. Judging from the strength of the Russian army in Nerchinsk, they are simply unable to cope with such an encirclement and suppression.

Therefore, what Lin Ruhai meant was to first show his weakness to others, infinitely lower Russia's defenses, the more despised the better, and give Russia a big surprise when the time comes.

Without too much communication, after reading this letter, several people can understand his thoughts.

After pondering for a moment, Mingzhu nodded in agreement, "This plan is feasible."

Then Suo'etu also expressed his opinion, "In this case, let's listen to what they mean first."

"Then does this mean that I should suppress my temper and be my grandson?" Tong Guogang touched his bare forehead, and said with aggrieved expression, "I'm afraid I can't stand those rakshasas with my violent temper. It grows on the head and I wish I could look at us with my nostrils, look at that condescending attitude, what the hell!"

Lin Ruhai laughed, "Your Majesty Tong, you don't need to hold back too much. Whether you get angry or point at the other person's nose and scold, you can do whatever you want. Just remember not to go too far and cause armed conflict. Right now is not the time."

The three of them instantly understood what he meant when they rolled their eyes. Compared to blindly shrinking and being weak, this kind of "dare to be angry and dare not speak up" is more real. Besides, they just want to listen to the other party's proposal to delay time, that's all. It's not that he really wants to respond to the opponent, but at the critical moment, Tong Guogang has to come on stage and call a stop.

Neither of the two parties in the negotiations on the next day really got to the point. Instead, they condemned each other in an attempt to occupy the moral high ground and test each other's intentions through constant insinuations.

When they met again the next day, the Russian side Golovin proposed to use Heilongjiang as the boundary, with Russia to the north of Heilongjiang and Qing Dynasty to the south.

"Fart!" Tong Guogang immediately jumped up against the case, and all the saliva flew out, "You are like a lion! You are not afraid of supporting yourself to death!"

Mingzhu followed closely behind, and said angrily: "Previously your country came to accuse our country of being insincere in negotiating, but now it seems clear that you are insincere!"

"Your country's request is so absurd that I cannot agree with it." Lin Ruhai stood up and said angrily, "Let's go."

The two sides broke up unhappy, but Golovin added 300 musketeers to the checkpoints in Nerchinsk, and added another [-] the next day, which was already a full threat.

Naturally, Lin Ruhai was not to be outdone, and immediately ordered the sailors on standby across the river to cross the river, then blocked Nerchinsk, and dispatched troops to surround Yaksa.

At the same time, the Buryat, Wincott, and Khalkha Mongols also launched an attack on the Russian army as promised.

Golovin, who was holding the chance of victory now, really panicked and sent someone to ask for another meeting.

While Lin Ruhai was full of promises, he quietly surrounded the Russian army in private.

The mother and son cannons of the Qing Dynasty were equipped with scopes, which had a long range without losing sight. They were surrounded by the Russian army from a distance before they noticed it. There are more than a dozen dark muzzles that have been silently aimed at a group of Russian envoys headed by him. They are Qing's "secret weapons" - sniper gunners.

As soon as an order is given at any time, the Russian envoys should blow their heads and wipe out the entire army.

Of course, it's the same with the Russian side. Neither side wants to form a deadly feud unless it is absolutely necessary. Naturally, the problem cannot be solved so simply and rudely.

Lin Ruhai brought Suo'etu, Mingzhu, and Tong Guogang to the meeting. Golovin, who didn't know it, thought he had taken a step back, but he was still talking like a lion, chattering and gesticulating at the map.

"Your Excellency, it seems that you still haven't been able to adjust your position." With the same sentence, Lin Ruhai sent it back to the Russian side, stood up with a smile, and walked out of the tent, followed by the rest.

The Russian side only thought that they refused to negotiate again, and immediately got up and chased after them.

"Master Lin, please stop..."

The current situation here is not optimistic for the Russian side, and this negotiation must be completed as soon as possible. Golovin is naturally very anxious.

Following the envoys of the Qing Dynasty, they came to the open space outside the tent, but saw Lin Ruhai make a strange gesture, and before the Russian side could react, a few shells flew from nowhere, and instantly hit the nearby area. The tents were all blown up to slag, and there was the sound of bullets piercing the air again, and the hats on the heads of the Russian envoys had been blown away.

In an instant, the entire Russian camp was filled with screams of panic. While fleeing with their heads in their hands, they took out their weapons and wanted to fight back, but they couldn't see where the ambushing enemy was at all, and they didn't know what was being shot after the continuous gunshots.

Golovin picked up the hat and took a look. The bullet hole on it was clearly visible, piercing through the front and back... If the bullet had gone down a little further, it would have pierced his head right now.

Thinking of this, Golovin couldn't help shivering. He glanced around but couldn't find the enemy. He became even more panicked, "What is that? Why can we shoot at us without seeing anyone!"

"Your Excellency, you don't need to know these things." Lin Ruhai put away his smile, and said in a cold and forceful tone, "Every inch of territory belonging to our Qing Dynasty will never be ceded to others, not even a single bit of it!"

"If your Excellency retreats despite the difficulties, our Daqing is not that cruel generation. We are happy to treat our friendly neighbors well. In the future, we will be able to trade with each other to get what we need, but...if this neighbor's ambition is only to covet my Daqing's wealth. land, don’t blame us for serving at gunpoint.”

Mingzhu smiled and said, "We have an old saying that a man who understands current affairs is a brilliant man."

Tong Guogang was even more simple and rude, playing with the saber in his hand and sneered: "Little Raksha, I advise you to be sensible!"

"You...you are too domineering!" Golovin turned blue with anger, and gritted his teeth: "Our firepower is not bad, so you are not afraid that you will not be able to leave the camp today? Now as long as I give the order, you will be beaten immediately It's full of holes!"

"Then let's die together." Lin Ruhai said with a face of disapproval, but the other party choked on his light words.

As the saying goes, the horizontal is afraid of the hard, and the hard is afraid of death.

What should I do if it is clear that I would rather die than compromise?Can you really die with him?

Golovin and others are so angry that their noses are crooked. What kind of negotiation is this?Damn negotiations!This is clearly unilateral expulsion!

"I heard that your country is currently at war with Poland and Sweden. The situation is not optimistic. Are you sure that your tsar is really willing to offend a powerful neighbor again? Although our Qing Dynasty is also fighting with Galdan, our firearms are powerful. I also saw that what is a mere Galdan? Maybe you will hear the news of Galdan's death in a few days."

Subconsciously looking at the hat in his hand again, Golovin was speechless for a moment.

The Qing Dynasty must have a very powerful secret weapon!

Who said that the weapons of the Qing Dynasty were backward?Who said Qing was easy to bully?The hell behind!Damn it's a bully!

After struggling and hesitating for a long time, the Russian envoy finally chose to compromise after deliberation.

They had never expected the rebel army to resist, and they had never expected such a tough attitude and powerful weapons from the Qing Dynasty. What if they retreated without compromise?Are you waiting to die here?Or fight to the death with the Qing envoys to form a death feud, and then attract a powerful opponent to the country that is deeply under attack?

Maybe Daqing is unable to deal with them right now, but once Galdan is defeated...

A piece of "Nerchinsk Treaty" was signed, but it failed to bite off a piece of fat from the Qing Dynasty as Russia expected. Instead, it was forced to return the previously occupied Yaksa, Nerchinsk and other places , It's really a typical example of losing your wife and losing your army.

When Lin Shiyu got the news that the envoys had won a big victory, Lin Shiyu couldn't help but get red eyes on the spot.

Bringing Dai Zi and Huang Luzhuang together at the beginning was really the right choice. I didn't expect it to come in handy so soon, and it played a decisive role. It can be seen that these two great talents are really treasures.

But when she thought of Dai Zi being framed and convicted by Nan Huairen in the future, and when Kangxi abolished the firearms camp... her heart couldn't help but tugged again.

Now is no longer the era of pure cold weapons. In any case, we must not give up the development of firearms, otherwise we will be reduced to the point of being beaten sooner or later.

The "Treaty of Nerchinsk" this time is completely different from the history, and the future "Treaty of Aigun" must not be allowed to happen. Only these two treaties will allow Russia to seize it from the Qing Dynasty without a single soldier. A territory no less than the combined size of France and Germany, and a river as long as the Danube.

It's so heartbreaking and embarrassing.

Thinking of this, Lin Shiyu wanted to kill someone for the first time.

Nan Huairen, this damned foreign devil!If he hadn't deliberately framed him, how could Dai Zi, a firearms wizard, be reduced to being exiled to Shengjing and completely wasted most of his life?If Dai Zi was there...

Forget it, the most annoying thing is Kangxi, a big pig's hoof. With his attitude towards firearms, even if Dai Zi is not trapped, fear is useless. Nan Huairen is certainly hateful, but the most important thing is to think about how to reverse Kangxi's thinking .

Difficult.

Lin Shiyu couldn't help but started scratching her head again.

As soon as Russia retreated like this, Galdan, without the support of firearms, soon fell into a situation where it was almost out of ammunition and food. Coupled with the fierce firepower of the Qing Dynasty, it was beaten back and forth, just as Galdan was thinking about retreating. On the way, bad luck suddenly came.

A bullet that came out of nowhere pierced his temple with incomparable precision, and the next moment, the whole person fell off the horse with a "boom", and his eyes were wide open until he died.

Galdan's subordinates were stunned for a moment, and after reacting, they immediately exploded and panicked. However, before they could escape, the artillery fire of the Qing army had already bombarded indiscriminately from all directions, and wailing was everywhere in an instant.

Unexpectedly, this fatal blow came not from anyone else, but Yinti, the eldest son of the emperor, who was on the battlefield for the first time.

The news was sent back to the capital in a hurry. Kangxi, who was unable to take the imperial conquest due to illness, was relieved of his depression and smiled happily.

Lin Shiyu's eyes changed on the spot.

This dog man is promoting Baoqing!

What is this for?

Feeling threatened by the prince?That should be impossible, Baocheng has not had any serious contact with the government yet, and it is too early to say threats.

Looking at her pensive posture, Yinzhen took her hand and wrote three words on the palm of her hand - whetstone.

"..."

Lin Shiyu couldn't hold back any foul language on the spot.

But go to his uncle's whetstone!

Isn't it good for the children to be brothers and sisters?If you insist on torturing internal conflicts like this, in the end, what else can you gain besides tossing the entire court into a miasma, and tossing to the point where father, son, and brother are separated from each other?

For this reason, Lin Shiyu didn't like the big pig's hooves for several days in a row, and she didn't know if she felt something was misunderstood.

Therefore, Lin Ruhai contributed a lot to expelling the Russian army and recovering the lost land. Naturally, he will be indispensable in the reward for meritorious deeds.

Can the title of the Lin family come back?
