Chapter 3343 Chapter 3345【The troops are approaching the city】

 After capturing Yekaterinburg, Xiang Nan ordered the army to rest where it was.

 After setting off from Ili, they rushed northwest and traveled about five thousand miles. They fought more than 20 battles. The soldiers were exhausted and just needed to repair.

At this time, Xiang Nan also received news from the Beiyang Navy that they had recovered the Kamchatka Peninsula.

 The Kamchatka Peninsula is located in the easternmost part of the Asian continent, separated from Alaska by the Bering Strait. The Rakshasa Kingdom sent people to occupy this place in the seventeenth century.

Because the local climate is cold, the environment is harsh, and wild beasts are infested. It is a cold and barren land in the far north. Therefore, there are not many people stationed here in the Rakshasa Kingdom. Only a small number of adventurers stay here in order to hunt for furs. The total number There are no more than 2,000 people, and they are scattered in more than a dozen strongholds, large and small.

 These people were naturally no match for the Beiyang Navy, and they were quickly wiped out. Later, Yu Zhensheng, commander of the Beiyang Navy, personally erected boundary markers on the Kamchatka Peninsula to indicate that this was a land under the rule of the Qing Dynasty.

 Hang Nan was very happy to learn that Kamchatka Peninsula had been captured.

 Although Kamchatka is a bitterly cold place in the far north, it is actually extremely rich in natural resources. Animals, plants, minerals, and water resources are all very abundant.

 The most important thing is that it is only separated from Alaska by a gorge. From Kamchatka Peninsula, you can enter Alaska smoothly. By then, all of North America may be captured.

You must know that the influence of England and France is currently limited to the eastern part of North America, and they do not yet have influence on the western coast.

It was not until the westward expansion movement at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century that the western region of North America was gradually invaded and developed. In the process, the indigenous Indians were also massacred and tortured.

 It is now the middle of the 18th century, and the Qing Dynasty can still make a difference in North America.

 …

After Yekaterinburg was captured by Xiang Nan's army, the news spread back to the Kremlin, and Elizabeth I, who was in power at the time, was shocked.

 Now she is at war with France, Austria, etc., and with England, Prussia, etc. In order to win the war, she has sent 330,000 troops.

But unexpectedly, while her army was fighting fiercely in the front, Xiang Nan led his troops to sneak attack in her back garden. As a result, the Rakshasa Kingdom is facing enemies from both sides.

If troops are not sent to resist in time, I am afraid that Xiang Nan will lead his troops to attack Ke Palace in a few days. By then, it will be too late to regret it.

Therefore, Elizabeth I immediately mobilized an army of 100,000 troops and went to Yekaterinburg to expel Xiang Nan's group of uninvited guests.

As for the movements of the Rakshasa army, Xiang Nan had already clearly detected the movements of the Rakshasa army through the falcon he had conquered, and had already set up an ambush on the only road he must pass.

An army of one hundred thousand Rakshasa marched all night and night to stop the enemy, but they happened to fall into Xiang Nan's encirclement.

Cannonballs and bullets fell like raindrops, and the Rakshasa army was beaten to the point where their heads were covered and turned around, and their horses were turned upside down, leaving dead and injured. The new army immediately attacked together with various Mongolian ministries.

 In the end, the Rakshasa Kingdom had an army of 100,000, with less than 1,000 survivors, and the rest were killed.

After the 100,000-strong army was wiped out, Xiang Nan immediately ordered his men to change their clothes and rush to Ke Palace overnight.

At this time, Elizabeth I should not have thought that one hundred thousand troops would die so miserably.

 Because she didn't know the actual situation of Xiang Nan and others, she didn't know that Xiang Nan was the commander of the expedition, and she didn't know how abnormal the Qing army's firepower configuration was now.

Even compared with the First World War, except for the lack of aircraft and tanks, the Qing army was not much different from England and the United States, the strongest countries at the time, or even worse. For example, the Qing army is now equipped with automatic rifles, which are copied from the AK47. This kind of gun is not only powerful, high-precision, and powerful in firepower, but the key is its reliability, and it can be used even under low temperature and high heat.

 Elizabeth I thought that the army that invaded Yekaterinburg was Mongolian nomads.

 After all, Xiang Nan only brought 50,000 new troops with him on this expedition, but there were as many as 200,000 Mongolian cavalry participating in the battle. From a distance, the Mongolian cavalry is the most eye-catching.

And the Mongolian country has been in decline for hundreds of years and has been defeated by them long ago. So when Elizabeth I thought about it, a hundred thousand Rakshasa army would definitely defeat those uninvited guests, so she was not too worried.

 …

But unexpectedly, a few days later, Xiang Nan led his army to the Ke Palace, and then a thousand cannons fired a salvo, leaving the Ke Palace in a mess.

At that time, the Rakshasa Kingdom actually had a million-strong army. More than 300,000 people were sent to the front line to participate in the battle between Britain and France, 100,000 people were sent to rescue Yekaterinburg, and the remaining 500,000 people were distributed in other state capitals.

But after all, the Rakshasa Kingdom is too big. The half-million troops have to guard the border and guard important inland cities to prevent serf uprisings. Therefore, they are scattered and naturally difficult to assemble.

The 100,000 troops sent out by Elizabeth I to rescue Yekaterinburg had already gathered all the troops around the Kremlin Palace. Therefore, when the Qing army approaches the city, she has little power to resist.

 All the security brigades, fire brigades, and police brigades in the city, plus the barely organized civilians, total only 140,000 to 50,000 people, but their combat effectiveness is extremely low.

 After all, such an army does not have much combat experience, and its fighting will is even weaker. In comparison, Xiang Nan's new army has experienced hundreds of battles, and its firepower is not comparable to others.

 Therefore, after holding on for two days, the Kegong Palace was captured by Xiang Nan.

In a panic, Elizabeth I had no choice but to flee with Peter III, his wife Catherine, and other nobles and ministers.

 Fortunately, Xiang Nan knew their movements early and arranged an ambush for a group of people in advance, and finally captured the whole group.

 Later, under the pressure of Xiang Nan, Elizabeth I signed a surrender document announcing that the Rakshasa Kingdom would surrender to the Qing Dynasty. From then on, it became a vassal state of the other party, and the Qing Dynasty was allowed to garrison troops and do business.

 Subsequently, he signed a letter of abdication of the throne and passed the throne to his son Peter III.

 Peter III was in an absurd situation and a cowardly man. As the crown prince of the Rakshasa Kingdom, he can't even speak the Rakshasa language, and he doesn't like the Rakshasa Kingdom at all. He only plays with soldier dolls every day.

  It can be said that the accession of such an emperor to the throne would be a disaster for the Rakshasa Kingdom.

 For Xiang Nan, it is much better for such a person to manipulate than to support a shrewd and capable person.

So Xiang Nan then asked Peter III to appoint the people he brought as auxiliary ministers, who would be responsible for issuing orders on his behalf.

 In order to prevent Elizabeth I and Queen Catherine from causing trouble, Xiang Nan ordered people to execute them secretly.

 You must know that Catherine is the famous Emperor Catherine II in history, and she is quite accomplished. During her reign, the Rakshasa Kingdom successively carved up Poland and the Ottoman Empire, controlled the entrances to the Sea of ​​Azov and the Black Sea, and became a pivotal superpower in Europe.

 Such a woman cannot be kept.
