Although he had signed the word "war" on the war letter of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, Hongqing did not really plan to act in the pace of the Three Kingdoms Alliance. After accepting the gift from the Junggar army to his door, he did not launch an attack at dawn. Instead, he only moved his camp forward five miles, and set up a camp five miles away from the Three Kingdoms Alliance camp. He ignored the provocation of the cavalry troops sent by the Three Kingdoms Alliance, and rested peacefully for a day.

On April 17, 3rd year of Chengde, Chenshi was the sign of the official sign. The sun had just poked its head out of the horizon. A horn sounded like a trunk in the originally quiet Qing army camp suddenly sounded. Then, two tightly closed camp gates were opened, and teams of Qing army officers and soldiers with guns and live ammunition stepped out from inside and drove towards the Three Kingdoms Alliance camp.

"Woo, woo, woo..."

With such a big move by the Qing army, the lookout post on Geden Mountain immediately discovered something wrong, so they didn't dare to go lightly. The sound of trumpets everywhere suddenly rang out one after another. In an instant, the entire Three Kingdoms Allied Forces camp was suddenly in chaos.

"Khan, the Qing army has been dispatched. Our three-country coalition forces should not show weakness. We should go to battle and teach the Qing people a lesson. Please ask the Khan to give an order."

Although Grand Duke Gagarin is the governor of Russia's Siberia and the nominal commander of the Russian military, he is actually just a politician. Although he is not a layman in military affairs, he is only half of his ability. Because of this, Grand Duke Gagarin did not intend to go to command the battle himself, but handed over the command to his deputy commander Lieutenant General Torsky, but he led a group of followers to hurry up to the Geden Mountain. Seeing that Cewang Alabandan led dozens of generals to observe the movements of the Qing army in front of the mountain, he immediately came over with a smile, and proposed a sentence in a breeze.

"Um……"

Cewang Alabtan never likes Russians, and he has no favor for Grand Duke Gagarin, a treacherous and greedy Russian. If he had a choice, Cewang Alabtan would rather submit to the Qing Dynasty than form an allies with the Russians. However, the grudge between the Junggar Khanate and the Qing Dynasty was too deep, and it was difficult for each other to have a peaceful coexistence. Because of this, in order to protect the Khanate from being destroyed, even though he knew it was a poison to quench his thirst, Cewang Alabtan had to choose to temporarily rely on the Russians. Even so, he was unwilling to bow his head in front of Grand Duke Gagarin. At this moment, when he heard Grand Duke Gagarin's seemingly polite but actually was orderly words, Cewang Alabtan's face was still calm, but his brows were slightly frowning, but he could not do it, so he could only say nothing without hesitation.

"Don't worry, Khan, the army of my Great Russian Empire is ready and will definitely give the Qing people a headache!"

With more than 100,000 soldiers in hand and basically a new weapon, Gagarin was very confident and did not care about Cewang Alabutan's coldness. After a haha, he made a guarantee with confidence.

"Yes, yes, with the army of Grand Duke Gagarin, we should be worry-free in this battle."

The Kazakh Khanate has the weakest national strength. In previous years, it has been invaded by Russia and the Junggar Khanate. This time, the troops came in less than 35,000 infantry and cavalry, which was not very useful at all. He even had no capital to guard one side alone. The camp could only squeeze with the Junggar Khanate with aggrievedness. In this case, Na Yuzi had no confidence when he spoke, and just played a role. Although he had already spoken with a smile, neither Cewang Arabtan nor Grand Duke Gagarin even looked at him.

"His Excellency Gagarin, the first victory of defeat is related to the morale of the army. There must be no mistakes. Is it okay to ask your troops to take action?"

Although he was extremely disgusted with Grand Duke Gagarin, Cewang Alabutan did not dare to act emotionally at the moment of such a great enemy, and pondered and made a request.

"Of course, the Khan only had to defend the left wing and did not give the Qing army an opportunity to take advantage of it. As for the front battlefield, I will leave it to the strong army of the Great Russian Empire."

Grand Duke Gagarin is a slick politician. He will never see through Cewang Alabutan's suggestion that the Russian army will fight with the Qing army so that they can make profits. However, Grand Duke Gagarin did not take it seriously and was not alone. It was because Grand Duke Gagarin had absolute confidence against the more than 100,000 troops under his command, and had long wanted to compete with the Qing army for the last time to repay the "humiliation" he suffered when he was on the Qing Dynasty. He would not care about Cewang Alabutan's little dark thoughts, and patted his chest and agreed.

"Okay, then that's it. If this battle is won, my Junggar Khanate will join the whole country and will never be discriminated against."

As soon as he heard Grand Duke Gagarin say this, a gleam flashed through Cewang Alabutan's eyes, and his face, which was always flat, also had a smile on his face, and he began to swear.

"Da Khan just don't worry, my army of the Great Russian Empire will never disappoint Khan!"

Even though he knew that Cewang Alabutan's words were just false words, Grand Duke Gagarin did not mind at all. It was nothing more. In Grand Duke Gagarin's view, as long as he defeated the Qing army opposite, the extremely weak Junggar Khanate was just fish on the chopping board and could not make a big fuss at all. It was really not a big deal to say something good at it at the moment to coax Cewang Alabutan to be happy.

"Hahaha... OK, come, send an order, the three armies line up and prepare to face the enemy!"

Cewang Alabutan seemed to be really moved by Grand Duke Gagarin's words. He raised his head and laughed loudly. Finally, he waved his hand hard and shouted with great enthusiasm.

"Woo, woo, woo..."

After Cewang Alabutan's order, a row of trumpeters standing on the top of the mountain immediately sounded the order to attack. Then, they saw the left-wing Junggar army and the right-wing Russian army lined out of the camp gate and began to set up a nervous formation on the flat ground in front of Geden Mountain.

"The entire army stopped and lined up on the spot!"

Just as the Three Kingdoms coalition began to set up its formation, the Qing army, who was walking in a row, finally reached only two miles from Ligeden Mountain. When the Three Kingdoms coalition launched its formation, Hongqing did not drive the troops forward, but instead grabbed the troops one and a half miles away from the Three Kingdoms coalition cordon. After giving the order, the troops immediately began to set up their formation according to the pre-war deployment.

Whether it was the Three Kingdoms Alliance or the Qing army, they had done enough pre-war preparations this time. The formations of troops were naturally very quick. In just half an hour, the formations of both sides had been deployed. Hundreds of thousands of troops were facing each other from afar, and the silence of a faction on the battlefield was about to be fully launched. A decisive battle that determines who the Far East overlord is about to begin.

On one side of the Three Kingdoms coalition, the 135,000 Junggar Army and the Kazakh Khanate army were lined on the left wing, with infantry clusters in front and cavalry behind, and nearly 200 old-style artillery were suppressed, and they were posing as a stance of guarding and defending each other. Although the Russian army had only more than 15,000 men, they occupied the middle and right wing positions. Among them, the first Siberian border defense army was deployed in the center, the second and third wings were arranged on the right wing, and there were a large number of Cossack cavalry between the two Russian troops. As for the most elite guards, the First Army, was placed in the backward direction of the middle wing, as the front line, more than 200 various artillery were lined up in one direction, and the black muzzles pointed to the Qing army array.

On the Qing army, the 125,000 troops were also arranged in one line. The first and second divisions of the Third Army on the right wing formed six square formations in units of brigades, with an artillery division, which corresponded to the army of the Junggar Khanate, which was strictly guarded and defended, and was commanded by Cheng Guiwu; the middle route was three divisions of the First Army, one and a half brigade of the Artillery Brigade and two brigades of the First Cavalry Division, with Yue Zhongqi as the commander-in-chief; the rear formation was led by Hongqing, the Third Division of the Second Army, the Third Brigade of the First Cavalry Division and most of the Second Cavalry Division were reserved. The left wing only arranged two divisions of the Second Army and one brigade of the Artillery Division, which was dispatched by Zhang Miao; as for the Third Division of the Third Army and a Regiment of the Second Cavalry Division, it was the baggage transfer unit, responsible for ensuring the appeasement from the main camp to the front, and this part of the work was under Tashan.

"Order: The right wing immediately launches the attack and tells Watchaifsky to do his best and make sure to break the Qing army's front in one fell swoop!"

Halfway through the mountainside of Geden Mountain, Lieutenant General Torsky led a large group of staff to build a temporary command center. However, after seeing him observe the Qing army's positions with a monocular telescope for a while, he waved his hand expressionlessly and issued the first combat order in a cold voice.

"yes!"

After Torsky's order, a messenger quickly responded to the promise and rushed to the right wing along the hillside.

"Order: First Division, Third Army First Division attack, Second Division followed up, Third Division, Third Division, Third Army Second Division as reserves, and Start Attack!"

Watchaevsky, the Lieutenant General of the Second Siberian Border Defense Army of Russia, is 52 years old. He has participated in the battle between Russia and Sweden, Turkey and other countries. Unfortunately, he is just a little noble and has no way to be promoted. He has been the commander of the Second Siberian Border Defense Army of Siberian Border Defense for nearly ten years, but he has never been able to advance again. He is in urgent need of a huge military merit to be a promotion level. Therefore, even though his relationship with Torsky was actually extremely tense in the past, he has never raised any doubts about Torsky's orders. After listening quietly to the words of the messenger, he waved his hand to issue an order for attack without saying a word.

"Dong, dun, dun..."
