The sixth mission to China mentioned by Catherine II will trace the root cause, which starts after the Battle of Jaquessa.

From Shunzhi to the Kangxi period, the Qing court captured nearly 100 Cossack prisoners of war in several confrontations between Yakshasa and Tsarist Russia. After coming to Beijing, these people were incorporated into Manchuria with the Yellow Banner of the Yellow Banner, and established the "Russian Zuoling" separately, and placed them in Hujiayuan Hutong (later known as Hujiayuan Hutong) in the northeast corner of Beijing.

Of course, the Cossacks who entered the flag would not be in vain. Some of them were sent to the Heilongjiang Anti-Russian front line to serve as front-line reconnaissance, battlefield surrender and translation work, which was effective.

Since ancient times, China has adopted the principle of "governing according to customs" for foreign races outside the Central Plains, which is what the Book of Rites said, "The people of the five directions have nature and cannot be moved... Practice their teachings without changing their customs, and align their policies without changing their appropriateness." That is to say, as long as the households can be organized and the people are unified and the government is unified, there is no need to change their living customs and religious beliefs.

It is also because of this that when the Battle of Jaxa ended, the people of the "Russian Zuotong" lived in Beijing for more than ten years and were quickly assimilated. By the late Kangxi period, they were no different from other bannermen.

These people don’t know any skills. Although they have more than ten taels of silver in grain every month, they have no chance to go to war and get rewards because they are not good at managing finances, so they can only live in this acre of three-point land in the capital.

Among the early prisoners of war, one of the man named Maxim Leondyev was originally the priest of the Yaksa Church. After being captured, he was in the "Saint Nicholas Church" in Dongzhimen until his death, and presided over religious activities for the Russian prisoners of war. Later, with the need for Peter I to develop Sino-Russia trade, Tsarist Russia began to send missionary missions to China after many consultations with the Qing court.

The most funny thing about the first Orthodox missionary in Beijing came to Beijing was that in order to show the spirit of a great power, Kangxi actually gave these missionaries and students the silver reward and was incorporated into the Eight Banners. For example, the leader of the regiment was given a fifth rank, the priest and the auxiliary rank were seventh rank, and other students accompanying the church also became members of the "Russian leader". The Lifan Court gave houses, living expenses and all the items they asked for, and even found wives. The missionaries were extremely immense.

At present, the old lady of the queen said she wanted to find two former Chinese-speaking clergymen to China to join the negotiation team, but when the people from the Foreign Affairs Committee went back, there was only one left of living.

This person's name is Agafonov, Alexey Semenovic, who is 44 years old this year and is proficient in Manchu Chinese. After returning to China in 1782, he was a translator under the command of Irkutsk Governor Ivan Jakarbi, who was cut off by Zhao Xin. He was then transferred to the Foreign Affairs Committee in St. Petersburg. He is one of the earliest sinologists in Russian history.

The diplomatic mission that negotiated with Beihai Town began to be formed on the third day after the condolences of Rumentsev. The plan was composed of 150 people. In addition to the Queen's Guards Cavalry, the Military Commission and the Senate's diplomatic and trade departments, they also dispatched personnel. The heads of the chief and deputy regiment were Count Alexey Grigorievich Orlov and the mother Earl of Gold, and Agafonov accompanied him as the translator.

Speaking of the regiment commander Orlov, this person ranks third among the famous "Five Brothers Orlov Brothers". The five brothers all assisted Ekaterina II in launching a coup, and it is said that this person himself killed Peter III. Although Count Orlov fell out of favor fifteen years ago, he served as the commander-in-chief of the Tsarist Russian Empire, and formulated the first archipelago expedition, and was considered half a military strategist.

The members of the mission will set off in mid-December. Since the journey is more than 4,000 kilometers, they will leave after arriving in Kazan for the Russian New Year (seven days later than the Gregorian calendar). In this way, the Russians will have to wait until mid-March of the following year as soon as possible.

Since the Northern Navy completed the population verification of Krasnoyarsk and Yenisesk, it has been waiting until Krutogorov and his men arrived in early December, and they came forward and ordered the Russian residents in the city to start relocating.

When Zhao Xin returned to Yenisesk, the Jewish group that had not yet moved in the city began to become extremely uneasy because of the arrival of the Cossack soldiers who depended on the Beihai Town. Many people lined up long queues outside the Military Control Commission to apply for passes to Tulun or Xiawujinsk.

The reason why the Jews did this is because the Cossacks were the natural enemy of the Jews, and the two sides had been in a state of irreconcilable situation for a long time. It was funny that these two minorities were wanderers who lacked national identity and had no sense of belonging, but there were great differences and oppositions in their living customs and values.

The Cossacks were originally a group that was constantly supplemented by new members, and the visitors were all from ethnic groups, such as the Tatars, Kalmyks, and Buryat Mongols, but they only firmly excluded the Jews. The Jews were afraid that they would not be able to avoid the robbery of Cossacks and would never get involved in this group.

"...Cossack brothers! I call on you to join this group in the name of the Siberian Cossack Emirates! Just like the Cossacks of Zaporoz, we will build our own free country! Break the shackles that the nobles and men put on our heads!"

In the Assumption Church of Our Lady in Yenisesk, Cruto Grove's number one dog-legged Mikhail was giving a passionate speech. On both sides of him were more than twenty subordinates with revolvers on their waists; in front of him were more than four hundred local Cossack men who were "summoned".

"Wait, Mikhail, right?" A short Cossack walked out of the back of the silent crowd. He coughed, rubbed his long hands like the roots of old oak trees washed by water, and looked at Cruto Grove with a slightly smile, asking, "You just said to break the shackles... So what kind of shackles will be put on us after the establishment of the new emirate?"

"What's wrong with you? Is there someone who can put a shackle on yourself?"

The short and strong Cossack asked relentlessly: "What does this "self-" mean?"

Mikhail said: "That's what it means. You must know who is in power in the Siberian Cossack Emirates? It is the Supreme Lada Conference, which is where everyone can speak. If everyone chooses you, you will be in power; either it is him, or this uncle is elected to power. Do you understand?"

"So who is the one who holds the power of the Supreme Radari?"

"Mitrich, the Zaporoz Fortress was blown up by that vicious woman, and it has only been 15 years since then. Have you forgotten it all?"

In 1775, after defeating Turkey many times and concluding peace treaties, the Tsarist Russian Empire obtained a passage to enter the Black Sea and the Dnieper River defense line. Therefore, the Zaporoze Cossack Emirates, which was once located on the border, became inland, and there was no need to maintain such a huge armed force.

At the same time, conflicts occurred frequently between the grassroots Cossacks and the Tsarist government, which had begun to actively develop new Russian land at this time. Due to land disputes, the Cossacks repeatedly destroyed the settler camps in Tafria.

In view of this, Katerina II took advantage of the opportunity after the Pugachev uprising to decide to liquidate the Zaporoze area.

Tens of thousands of Russian troops suddenly took action and caught the Cossacks off guard. Unlike those military leaders who were willing to surrender, most ordinary Cossacks would rather fight with the Tsarist army before talking. However, under the persuasion of the Orthodox priests and the Cossack nobles, they finally gave up their resistance. After that, the Tsarist army used cannons to level the fortress of Zaporozhe.

Mikhail shouted: "In the future, the Lada Conference will be the highest administrative body of the emirate, with Ataman as the national leader and military leader! Of course, the election must also be passed. If you are elected - you will take the power from above."

"Really? You're not talking nonsense, are you?"

Then he heard another person say, "What should I do with the land?"

"Do we want to hand over the land here?"

"According to the order of the Emirates Military Ataman, you will be given one hundred Russian acres of land each on the plain west of the Yenisei River, with a tax exemption of five years! We will cancel the captive tax! We will only tax the commodity transactions in the future! The land is yours, so you can plant whatever you want. By the way, you can do whatever you want to have a beard, and no one will charge you a beard tax again."

Cossacks present laughed and immediately spoke at the same time.

"Maybe, just talk now, to deceive everyone to support them."

"Tell us your conscience!"

"We are like bears now, we are touching each other and bumping into each other!"

"It is dangerous to listen to outsiders."

"They are wearing military uniforms exactly the same as those Chinese."

Mikhail said: "The Rada meeting will be held here tomorrow. Two local Atamans will be elected. He will become the government committee member of the emirate!"

The Cossack, named Mitrich, smiled and said, "It's great! Everyone chooses me! I will definitely speak for the poor!"

"Give all Cossacks the right to speak!"

Mikhail twisted his body and observed the reactions of the Cossacks. With the experience of agitation in the Jaxas and Usolier prisoners of war camps, he had no doubt that his actions could be successful. Every time he could grasp the emotions of the Cossacks present, he knew that victory was already in sight.

In Yenisesk's Military Control Council, Krutogorov, who served as the Ataman of the Cossack military, was reporting to Zhao Xin respectfully.

"Because time hastened, we only recruited five hundred people in Usolier. But don't worry, I have left some eloquent guys to continue recruiting."

"Discipline must be strictly enforced by military discipline!" Zhao Xin emphasized again. The reason for saying this is because the more than 3,000 people led by Krutogorov were walking procrastinatingly on the way, three days later than the scheduled time.

The Cossacks were not disciplined in this year. Wu Siyu had complained many times that he had worked hard to train the basic queues for these Cossacks, and they could always find various reasons to escape.

The problem is that the North Navy's forces are only a little bit along the Yenisei River, and Zhao Xin also pointed out that Krutogorov's men could help attract some firepower.

Zhao Xin had a headache about the servant army. Deng Fei, who was far away in Hoi'an, was very smooth recruiting local soldiers. The recruitment site in front of Chenghan Palace was lined up with long dragons.

The Northern Navy posted a notice on the day when it entered Hoi'an City. Jiang Fan wrote a wonderful piece of writing and wrote a notice of peace as a manifesto to fight against the thieves, which made the Chinese people in the Tang Dynasty and Mingxiang Society excited.

"Annan is close to China. Since Qin Zhao, he was destined to heaven and unified the world. King Wu of Zhao expanded the land of Baiyue, and established three counties in Hanwu and returned to the unification. Later, Li Li surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and gave titles and ceremonies. The inheritance of the Emperor Chengzong was mostly held for many years. The brothers of the thief Ruan Wenyue were the same clan. They were the ministers of Guangnan and were appointed as private soldiers. They had long been coveted. Ruan Wenyue's name was Hu Yue, his second brother Ruan Lu was named Hu Lu, and his third brother Ruan Hui was named Hu Hui.

These three people are good at starting swords and killing their masters, which will help Zhang Weifu. Ruan Guangping is a harsh person, set up an ambush, recruit pirates, and plunder all the sea borders.

Ruan Wenyue was angry with Jiading because his general was killed, and regarded Chinese as enemies. He killed innocent people more than 10,000 people. From the cow to the firewood stick, he trotted his corpse and abandoned the rivers, and the water did not flow. After two or three months, people dared not eat fish and shrimps in the river. They were violent and violent, and abused a country. The plants, trees, animals and animals were unable to be peaceful, and the world and ghosts were angry.

However, the Ruan bandits in the West Mountain were terrified of the vastness and inconsistent truth. The people of the country were poisoned and had been deeply pitiful for decades. The Northern Hai army came to slander the suffering of the people and extended more than ten thousand lonely souls in the sky. They have been strictly ordered that the soldiers do not violate any crimes, and they can all block them as before, and do not be surprised and suspicious. The threats of officials were originally threatened, but they were not obedient, so they could not be punished by their duties.

Now Beihai Town recruits soldiers, and the people of a country benefit. Those who capture Ruan Wenyue alive will be rewarded more. They dare to be unconscious and help the evil, and resist the order. They will wipe out everything with one finger. When the Ruan family in the West Mountain is captured, they will be wronged to the ground and relieve the uproar in the country. The top is in charge of the Chinese heart and the bottom is to comfort the people's hopes."

Next to the Anmin Notice, another conscription notice was posted. The first requirement was that Chinese people were eighteen to twenty-five years old. Because southerners were not tall, they limited their height to four feet and six inches, which is 1.56 meters. In addition, those with incomplete facial features were not allowed, and those who smoked smoke would not accept them.

As mentioned before, many of the Tang people in Hoi'an had relatives who were slaughtered in Jiading, but Nguyen Phuc Ying in Guangnan was too cowardly, and the West Mountain Army was brutal, so no one dared to resist these years.

But with the arrival of the Ye family father and son and He Xiwen, the Tang people in the city of Hoi'an knew the achievements of the Northern Navy in Hue, and the entire Tang Street was sensation. Almost from the third day after entering the city, recruitment began smoothly.

Deng Fei and Wang Yuanfang had thought it would be good to recruit 1,000 people, but in a few days, the number of new recruits who met the conditions had exceeded 1,500, and the number of people who signed up was still in constant force.

"Can't recruit any more, it's already exceeded 2,000!" Wang Yuanfang hurriedly stopped after seeing the number of people on the recruit registration. Although the Chinese merchants in the city were forced to be famous in Beihai Town, or wanted to take the opportunity to build relationships, and donate money and goods, so many people had to find a place to settle them.

As for training, Wang Yuanfang originally wanted to use He Xiwen's subordinates, but after a closer look, he realized that these people had no training at all. After years of pirate career, these people were enough to dare to fight and rush. In desperation, he could only transfer a company from the Land Battle Battalion to provide these "new recruits" with basic training.
