Three days later, Li Xiao was in Jinan and received a report from Wu Zhuang that he had successfully captured the city of Yakutsk, and was overjoyed.

"What a martial arts man, he really lives up to my expectations. This Russian important city of Yakutsk was actually taken down by him."

Li Xiao looked happy and paced back and forth in the room, feeling very moved.

It was not easy. The Tang army in Anton Town traveled thousands of miles and suffered hundreds of casualties before luckily taking down Yakutsk City, but it was extremely difficult. It can be seen that the combat power of the Russian army is still quite powerful.

At the same time, Li Xiao was also thinking that if the Russians were prepared for a long time or could close the city gate in time, the chances of his Tang army returning without success would be quite high.

The Russians are now highly alert to the way to win the city of Yakutsk by fighting for life. This way of seizing the city is no longer the same. From now on, we must still fight steadily to be the right way.

Then, Li Xiao immediately replied to Wu Zhuang, wanting to reward all the meritorious soldiers, and at the same time, he asked him to protect the city of Yakutsk, which he had been snatched from hardship, and must strengthen his security in order to prevent the Russians from making a comeback.

As for the fact that although he saved his life, his calf was seriously injured and he had become a disabled Irgen Jueluo Chata, now he can only retire.

Li Xiao also felt sorry for this Manzhou general who had been loyal since he was in office. He sighed for a long time and finally decided to give this hero a special medal, the Long Yin Medal, to this great hero.

The Dragon Roar Medal can be rewarded with 500 taels of silver at one time, and the whole family will be exempted from taxes. In addition, you can receive a reward of 200 acres of land on the newly expanded overseas territory of the Tiger Army.

Combined with Chata's previous merits, Li Xiao gave Chata the final reward of 2,000 yuan and 4,000 yuan for senior officers' disability pension. All rewards were 6,000 yuan. Since Chata had settled in Shandong, Li Xiao decided not to arrange for him to go overseas, but to give him a total of 500 acres of land and resettlement in Qingzhou Prefecture. These fields are forever exempted from taxes as land for the long-passing land of the descendants of the heroes.

In other words, unless Chata's descendants are cut off in the future and no one will succeed him, Li Xiao will take back the land he rewarded so that he can enjoy the land of his descendants.

Li Xiao is naturally willing to reward his subordinates who are loyal to him like this. After all, there is nothing more effective in motivating his soldiers than to get huge benefits from loyal heroes.

Li Xiao was very happy to capture the city of Yakutsk, but now he is most concerned about the Tang army in Pingnan Town and the incident of advancing Australia.

Since half a month ago, the Tang army, which had been on New Guinea Island for more than a month, had both recruits and weapons re-furbished, divided into three groups and launched an attack on the entire Australia with a overwhelming force.

Among them, Li Dingguo's Jia Camp and Cao Bianjiao's Bingying attacked Australia from the north and south ends of the Australian continent.

Luo Zheng's B Camp attacked islands between New Guinea and the Australian continent, such as the Micronesian Islands, Melanesian Islands, and other islands. In addition to these islands, Luo Zheng's troops were also responsible for attacking the north and south islands of New Zealand.

Compared with New Guinea Island, the number of indigenous people in the entire Australian area is smaller and more primitive. Most of them are Maori indigenous people who cannot even make tools. These natives who are still in the Paleolithic Age are no match for the Tang army at all. Therefore, Li Xiao demanded that the army soldiers in Pingnan Town, according to the standards of New Guinea Island, should pacify the entire Australian continent within half a year at the latest.

Those who obey will live, and those who resist will die. Although the Tang army's methods of conquering Australia are fierce, they are still much more civilized and kind than those Western white skins who killed all the natives regardless of gender, age and age.

Li Xiao felt relieved when he thought that this vast Australian continent and affiliated islands could be included in the Chinese territory. You must know that this is equivalent to building a fertile land for China that is infinitely fertile for its descendants. This contribution is enough for the descendants to remember for generations.

Such a vast and fertile land should have been a valuable property passed down from generation to generation by the hardworking and wise Chinese nation, but now it has been occupied by European white skin, which is really a pity.

At the end of September of the 14th year of Chongzhen, Golovin, who was still in the city of Liuminsk, finally waited for the Tsar's reply.

When he saw Tsar Michael Romanov, who sent 2,000 musketeers and 500 Cossack mercenaries, and under his command, he regained his lost territory with Dai Gong's guilt and regained his lost territory.

At this time, Golowen had learned from the head of the caravan Mikhail who returned to Shangliuminsk City that the capture of Yakutsk City was the Tang army under the command of Li Xiao, the Duke of Tang of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Xiao, Tang Jun, had some words and became the most hated words Golowen hated.

"His Majesty the tsar, I will definitely not let your expectations down." Golovin murmured to himself, his dark blue eyes full of hope.

"Brother, it seems that His Majesty the Emperor really appreciates you. Not only does it not punish you, it will give you the opportunity to get promoted and make money. You must seize it." Spandenov said with a smile.

"Of course, I will set out myself tomorrow to the capital of the Qing Dynasty and negotiate with them about the Tang army that the two countries formed an alliance to fight against Li Xiao." Golowen clenched his fists fiercely.

More than a month later, Golowen led a hundred cavalry guards to the south from Shangliuminsk, detoured by Mongolia, from west to east, passing through the Wengniut tribe, Naiman tribe, Kalaqin tribe, Korqin tribe, and then Guangning, and finally arrived at Shenyang, the capital of the Qing Dynasty.

When Golowen and his group were leaving Shangliu Minsk and heading for the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty emperor Huang Taiji was very worried about something.

That is, his favorite concubine, Hai Lanzhu, was seriously ill and was almost out of reach.

Chenfei of Guanju Palace, Borjijit, was named Hailanzhu. Born in the 37th year of Wanli, he was the daughter of Sang of the Bele Village in Korqin, Mongolia, and also the niece of Empress Xiaoduanwen. In the eighth year of Tiancong, Hailanzhu entered the Qing Palace at the age of 26. As early as the tenth year of Tianming, her sister Bumubutai, who was only thirteen years old, had married Huang Taiji. Whether Hailanzhu was married before this, who was his ex-husband, and who had children, was indescribable in all kinds of historical books.

In the first year of Chongde, when Huang Taiji was conferred the title of the Five Great Concubines, he was named Chen Fei of Guanju Palace, the first of the four concubines, second only to his aunt Zhezhe.

Huang Taiji named the Eastern Palace where Hai Lanzhu lived "Guanju Palace". Hai Lanzhu's title and the name of the palace she lived in fully express Huang Taiji's sincere love for Hai Lanzhu.

Concubine Chen was deeply favored by Huang Taiji, and the two had a deep relationship. On the eighth day of July 1, the second year of Chongde, Concubine Chen gave birth to Huang Taiji's eighth son. Huang Taiji was amnesty for this, which was a move that only happened when the crown prince was established. The mother and son were most favored by Huang Taiji.

But as the saying goes, good times don't last long. This son has not been named yet, so she died on the 28th day of the first lunar month of the third year of Chongde, less than one year old. This son died early, Hai Lanzhu was very sad and her health gradually became poor. Although Huang Taiji comforted her many times, she was still sick and became heavier. Finally, in the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, she reached the end of her life.

In real history, Huang Taiji was leading his army to command the battle in Songjin Land. When he rushed back to Shenyang, Hai Lanzhu had been dead for three days, and the two were unable to meet in the end.

In this time and space changed by Li Xiao, the Qing army has been resting outside the pass since it encountered major setbacks and recovering its vitality. This is a famous battle in Songjin, which determines the final direction of the Ming and Qing dynasties, so it was unable to fight. Therefore, Huang Taiji was at the bedside to accompany his favorite concubine and spend the last time in his life.

In Guansui Palace, Hai Lanzhu was carefully held in the arms of Huang Taiji. She was haggard and was drinking the soup with a small spoon by Huang Taiji himself.

At this time, Hai Lanzhu had long been completely gone because of her long-term illness, but Huang Taiji still hugged her with a careless look on her face, and was still feeding the medicine so carefully, without any concern. Her tears filled her eyes.

Soon after the medicine was finished, Hai Lanzhu was carefully placed on the bed pillow by Huang Taiji. At this time, her crystal tears finally couldn't help but burst out from her eyes.

"Your Majesty, I am seriously ill and I am afraid that there will be no more days in the future, so the emperor will no longer have to worry about me."

"How can you say all stupid things? You are going to be raising yourself soon." Huang Taiji's eyes also flashed with tears. He squeezed out a smile and comforted her softly.

Facing this most beloved concubine, he showed a ruthless dictator, a rare tender side.

Hai Lanzhu slowly shook her head: "I am very blessed and I know that my life is about to end and I will not be able to accompany the king anymore. My heart is already aware of it. I also ask the emperor to raise the dragon body well and revitalize the country. Even if I die, my heart will be peaceful..."

Huang Taiji's face twitched, bent down, hugged her thin body tightly in his arms, and tears were already rolling on his face: "I, Huang Taiji, although I have many wives and concubines, but you are the only one who loves me. I thought I could stay with you forever and spend this life together, but I didn't expect that luck would make people suffer. The fortunes would be bumpy. First, our prince left, and now you..., Oh, don't think so much, it will be good, it will be good, believe me, I asked the shaman, and they said, Concubine Chen, your body will be good soon..."

Hai Lanzhu raised her thin right hand with difficulty, tremblingly rubbed Huang Taiji's rough and fat face, and a sad smile also squeezed out on her face: "Emperor, I have to meet the king, so I feel so caring and distressed. I will have no regrets in this life. If there is a next life, I will definitely renew my relationship with the king and never leave him. Your Majesty, you are tired, so go and rest early."

Huang Taiji sighed and then kept her soft words for a long time before leaving.

However, late at night, just as he was about to rest and fall asleep, a palace maid suddenly came to report.

"Emperor, Emperor, Concubine Chen, she, she can't do it anymore..."

‘Ah! What did you say!” Huang Taiji jumped up from the dragon couch.

"Emperor, Concubine Chen is in dying, her consciousness is drowsy, and she keeps calling the names of the emperor and the prince..." The palace maid is full of tears.

Huang Taiji's tears instantly filled his eyes.

He put on a random coat and followed the palace maids to Guansui Palace.

When he came to Guansui Palace, when he saw the trembling waves of Chenfei Hai Lanzhu on the hospital bed from a distance, he felt like a knife cut.

With a quick step, he rushed to the head of the bed, grabbed Hai Lanzhu's thin hand, and tears suddenly surged.

"Don't be afraid of my beloved concubine. I'm here and I'm here to see you. You won't have any trouble. You will get better soon, and you will get better soon." Huang Taiji's face was trembling, and he said no matter how he said.

At this time, Hai Lanzhu could no longer speak. She opened her eyes with great effort, looked Huang Taiji carefully, smiled slightly on her face, and then her neck tilted to the side, and she died.

"My dear concubine..."

In Guansui Palace, Huang Taiji screamed loudly, and the eunuchs and palace maids also burst into tears.

Three days later, after the ceremony of stopping the spirit, calling back, and walking around, Chenfei Hai Lanzhu was officially buried, and Huang Taiji personally sent a sacrifice.

"The emperor offered sacrifices to the concubine Chen of Guanju Palace. You were born in the year of Yiyou. You were thirty-three. You died on September 28 of the year of Xinsi. I met you. I was very kind and wanted to enjoy wealth and honor together. I didn't expect the speed of heaven to be seized. The middle way was separated. I remember my love during my lifetime. Although I did not forget it, I remembered me and sighed. Therefore, I prepared sacrifices to express my sincere gratitude. I still ordered the lama monks and Taoists to recite scriptures, wishing that you would be blessed to be able to transcend..."

Finally, Huang Taiji cried and bowed to Hai Lanzhu's tomb, and personally entrusted the three titles. The kings and ministers, the Mongolian envoys from the foreign vassals and others paid tribute to the ceremony.

Subsequently, Huang Taiji posthumously named Hai Lanzhu Minhui Gong and Yuanfei, and ordered that the court should be exempted from congratulations, the banquet, music and dance were stopped, and major ceremonies in the court were also suspended one after another.

During this period, Huang Taiji was extremely sad and could not raise any national affairs. His whole spirit was quickly depressed, and he became much haggard, and he was no longer as full as before.

When the ministers saw that the emperor was in the palace, they often saw things and thought of others. Whenever they thought of Hai Lanzhu, they would cry and repeatedly advise him to go out to Beijing to hunt and have fun. Huang Taiji could not go against the will of the public, so he had to agree.

The Hailanzhu was buried five miles outside the gate of Shengjing. Huang Taiji would pass through her cemetery intentionally or unintentionally every time he hunted. Seeing the grave grass, he thought that his beloved concubine had passed away and buried her body in the grave and could not be resurrected, Huang Taiji would be heartbroken and could not help crying and sacrifice.

Huang Taiji became increasingly depressed and no longer as before. His shape was naturally seen by Dorgon Duoduo and others and happy in his heart.

Both of them were already itchy and ready to move. However, they were afraid of their majesty and power, and were determined to be judged, but they had to act respectfully and surrender on the surface.

However, seeing that Huang Taiji is now becoming more and more haggard and weak, both of them privately think that perhaps in the near future, they can start to really reach out to plan and find ways to touch the golden dragon throne.

Such a depressed and sad day lasted until the end of October.

On this day, the Ministry of Rites Chengzheng Ying-Orde came to report that a Russian envoy, Golovin, came to the city of Shenyang, the capital of the Qing Dynasty, with his entourage and seals.

"Russians? Where did they come from?" asked the emperor who was meeting with his ministers in Chongzheng Hall.

"I don't know this, I only heard that their country is very far away from our Qing Dynasty in the extreme north. However, there is an important matter for the Russian envoy to come here, and he wants to report it to the emperor." Ying Erdai said in a low voice.

Huang Taiji thought for a while, and then said loudly: "Well, since they are from the far north, I should not be disgusted with the hearts of people from far away. Let's go to the palace to meet with him."
