Chapter 4 Surprise

"Aina, you are most familiar with the terrain here. Tell me where we are now, where the stone gate is, and how we can get to the stone gate!" Chen Shiqing shouted.

Ai Na didn't know what was wrong with Chen Shiqing, but suddenly she was so nervous, but Chen Shiqing had a problem with her mind, and everyone got used to it. No one thought it was a big deal.

After Aina's explanation, Chen Shiqing immediately understood that by the way, it was this battle! The Qing army sent two battalions to explore the way, but one battalion was unfortunately caught, and more than 400 people were killed in battle. The other battalion survived the slower advance and hurriedly withdrew from the battlefield.

Chen Shiqing is not sure whether the camp he is in will be in a slump or a survivor, but he only knows that he must not sit still and wait for death.

Chen Shiqing remembered that at that time, the Burmese officers at Shiguan also took the risk, leaving only eleven people to guard Shiguan. The others set up ambush on the road ahead of Shiguan and eventually took the risk to win. In other words, if he led his fifty-three subordinates to successfully smuggle in front of Shiguan, he would have an absolute advantage in number. Coupled with the suddenness of the attack, Shiguan was definitely the thing in his pocket.

Surprise attack! Yes, it is a surprise attack!

Chen Shiqing clearly remembered that after the Qing army encountered setbacks, the army was worried about a strong enemy ahead, so it took more than half a month to advance, because at this time, the main force of Fukang'an and Yan Yan's central army arrived. At this time, the Qing army had the courage to attack again, but it was too late. Thousands of reinforcements from Shiguan arrived. Relying on favorable terrain, when the Qing army suffered a defeat in the initial battle and was depressed, he held on Shiguan for more than a month. The number of casualties of the Qing army was close to 10,000, and it was difficult to advance.

Finally, they had to be forced to retreat. After resting in the mainland, they dared to attack again. Because Yan Yan was furious, they led two thousand people to directly leave the large army and left Fu Kang'an's jurisdiction. Although they won the first battle and successfully attacked a small town in Myanmar, they were too proud after the victory. Before the three armies gathered, they attacked again. They fell into the ambush of the Burmese people and were trapped in an isolated city. They were almost wiped out. After receiving thousands of miles of assistance from Heshen, they saved Yan Yan's life.

This is the beginning of a series of defeats and defeats. Chen Shiqing must change all these unfavorable situations. Although the Qing Dynasty was the era of the Manchu Tartar Pigtails that he hated very much, the Qing Dynasty represented China after all. Only by conquering Myanmar and expanding its territory will it be safer and more beneficial to China in the future.

"Aina, let me ask you, is there any way we can bypass this road and reach the gate of Shiguan?" Chen Shiqing asked with concern.

Now, all hope can only be placed on Aina. Only by taking this local snake to smuggle through Shiguan and attack Shiguan in surprise can the unfavorable situation be reversed.

"It turns out that adults want to attack Burmese people! It's a good idea. Adults, from here, you can go around and attack Shiguan, and you don't need to walk on the avenue. However, there is also a problem with this, that is, there is no road along the way, crossing rivers, cliffs, and mountains and rivers, only excellent mountain kids can pass. We local people in Yunnan are nothing, they all grew up in the mountains. You Eight Banners masters are all northerners, can you pass?"

"Also, we can only move forward with light. All the war horses must be abandoned, and we cannot carry any supplies, food and grass. Of course, cannons and other things are even worse. If this is the case, even if we accidentally kill below the stone gate and catch the Burmese people off guard, we will not be able to conquer the solid stone gate!" Aina originally wanted to praise Chen Shiqing for a few words, but if we think about it carefully, this idea is still unreliable. So what if a small group of people advances to the stone gate with light equipment? Without cannons and siege equipment, can you hit the solid stone gate?

Chen Shiqing smiled coldly, patted Aina's shoulder and said, "Aina, you will probably become a county magistrate. If you save all of us, you will also start a wonderful era. For this reason, you will at least be rewarded for the position of a county magistrate."

Bah! Only eleven people are still in Shiguan garrison, and the others are all attacking. More than fifty people have gone to attack more than a dozen people. Unexpectedly, they still need cannons? Climb up the city tower in the night and the battle can be resolved in a few minutes!

"Sir, can I still be the county magistrate? Don't joke. Sir, others are forced to come to attack Myanmar. They are simply not working hard. Why are you so motivated to fight Myanmar and want to send troops independently from the large army?" Aina asked curiously.

Chen Shiqing smiled slightly and said with a deep meaning: "In order to protect the Old Summer Palace!"

Mr. Qianlong, I have a good view of your Summer Palace. I will live in it on your behalf! Look at how useless your descendants have made people burn our Ten Thousand Gardens Garden. I will let you see clearly. Not only can I help you protect the Summer Palace, but I will also snatch the Louvre, Buckingham Palace and so on!

After it was dark in the military camp, everyone fell asleep early. At the third day of the day, most people had already woken up. At this time, Chen Shiqing was working hard to do ideological work for his subordinates.

"Sir, is this too risky? Let's follow the big army, at least it's safe!" Ai Na still didn't dare to make up his mind to follow Chen Shiqing on the battle. Why did this sneak attack sound so dreamy? What should I do if I get lost halfway?

Of course, Chen Shiqing could not directly say that he was a person who had traveled from the future. In fact, he knew that everyone would be ambushed by the Burmese people and Guang Guang died. He could only use his own principles to tempt everyone to obey.

Ai Na is a Wa people who are very fluent in official language. The other people's level of official language is not satisfactory. They disagree with Chen Shiqing's ideas, but they do not fluently express it with Chen Shiqing, so Ai Na becomes half a translator.

"Young master, I think this is not good too. Although Xu Yide bullies others with his power, he has hundreds of people in his hands. If he follows him, he will feel more at ease!" Chen Youqing said with a frown.

Chen Shiqing shook his head and retorted: "It is precisely because they are many people that they are conspicuous and cannot escape the attacks of Burmese people everywhere. It is precisely because we have few people that we can attack Shiguan without realizing it! At that time, everyone can be promoted to the title. Don't you want to be an official?"

After Chen Shiqing's repeated persuasion, more than half of the 53 people supported Chen Shiqing. They also felt that it was possible to be ambushed halfway, and they also felt that sneak attacks were the best way to reduce casualties.
