Fengxian Jiangshan

In addition to eliminating these vital forces, the Feng army also seized 24 cannons, more than 7000 intact rifles, and countless bullets, artillery shells, and military rations.

Although Feng Jun is already very rich, no one would dislike having too many things, so Zhang Tinglan took them all without any hesitation.

Suifenhe, which had been bustling for three or four days, finally regained a bit of tranquility. The trembling Chinese people finally breathed a sigh of relief. The Russian army was defeated, and the defeat was very miserable. This news made the people on the border very happy mad.

Over the years, they have been bullied by the Russians. From time to time, Russian troops cross the border to harass them. Without the backing of a powerful country and army, they can only be slaughtered.Now finally there is an army capable of defeating the Russians. They all come to reward the soldiers of the Feng army with the only fat pigs, chickens and ducks as if they were celebrating the New Year.

Soldiers who had just experienced the flames of war could also relax, but Zhang Tinglan did not rest, and he summoned all the main officers.

"Everyone, the thing that was seized is just an appetizer. The intelligence personnel have sent the news. There is also a workshop in the machine repair factory in Shuangchengzi, which can produce rails. It is what we lack now. Who is willing to carry out this task? , take the factory back?"

Chapter 327 Looting the Twin Cities

Fengjun defeated the Russians!

This news sounded like a thunderbolt over China, and the shock was far beyond Zhang Tinglan's estimation. Ever since Shao Piaoping published several battlefield reports through newspapers, the whole of China has already started to seething.

Young students from all over the world suddenly discovered that there is still an army on Chinese soil that dares to challenge the great powers, and an army that can fight for the interests of China. For many young people, they are like almost desperate people in the desert. The feeling of suddenly discovering a clear spring is simply indescribable. Countless people are waiting for news from the front line every day.

More and more Chinese people are cheering for the army. For many years, the dignified China has been bullied to the extreme. Any country can step on the dignity of China. The cruel reality makes these passionate young people unacceptable. They are not reconciled to the sinking of their country, but they can't see any hope.

The news of the Fengjun's recovery of the Middle East Road came out like a ray of dawn, which immediately attracted the attention of countless young people. Then there was a confrontation between the Fengjun and the Russian army, and even a military conflict. The Fengjun took the initiative to keep the enemy out of the country. , so that everyone felt extremely excited.

After Zhang Tinglan's arrangement, as soon as Shao Piaoping's article was written, it could be sent to Fengtian by telegram, and then printed into a newspaper overnight. In addition to being distributed in Fengtian, it was also sent to Beijing and Tianjin in large quantities. The article was written by a famous newspaper writer , The thing I wrote was an earth-shattering event. For a while, Luoyang paper was expensive in Beijing, Tianjin and other places. As long as Fengtian newspapers were delivered, they would be sold out immediately.

Some major newspapers simply sent special reporters to Fengtian, and after receiving Shao Piaoping's article, they sent a telegram directly.Telegrams were not cheap at this time. Under normal circumstances, a word would cost ten cents and two cents.

Few of them could afford it, and some newspapers simply sent back a summary, which was then polished by specialized personnel. However, after Lao Zhang learned of the news, he simply allocated a special fund.These reporters were asked to post to Beijing with good punctuation, and some even sent them directly to Shanghai, Wuhan and other places.

Around the issue of the Middle East Road, Chinese public opinion is also rapidly fermenting, and some people have also stood up and accused the Fengjun of provoking the big powers.It's beyond self-control, as long as the Tsarist Russian army arrives.Fengjun will fall apart.At that time, the entire three northeastern provinces will not be guaranteed. This is completely playing with national affairs.

Many literati jumped out, pretending to be concerned about the country and the people. Although they didn't know the balance of military power between the two sides, and they didn't know the strategy and tactics, it was enough to know that China was far behind the great powers.This group of people can talk freely without worrying about any problems at all.

It's like betting on a bet. How many times in the past have told them that China is against the big powers.I have never taken advantage of it, and it is the same this time.The only thing that made them unhappy was that Shao Piaoping also wrote the example of Mr. Zhu, which overshadowed their high opinion. Many young people doubted their words, whether these sanctimonious guys would also point to Yang Fan to live ?

Just when public opinion across the country was attracted, news came from Suifenhe that surprised everyone. The Feng army defeated the Russian army, killing more than [-] enemies and taking more than [-] prisoners. Preliminary victory!

A thunderstorm rang out, and everyone was stunned. Those who predicted that the Fengjun would be defeated lost their voices in an instant, and their faces were flushed from the beating. Some wise people simply shut up and pretended to be themselves. I never said that as long as this period of time passes, they can still jump out and give pointers.

Of course, there are also some people who refuse to admit their mistakes, and continue to assert that one victory may not necessarily be repeated. As long as Tsarist Russia concentrates its elite troops, the strength of Fengjun is still not enough. If it is defeated, it is enough to cede some benefits. When the Russian army comes, I am afraid that the three eastern provinces will be lost.

For this kind of noise, more and more students have already sneered. If they really want to do good for this country, they rush to the front line, throw their heads and blood, die on the battlefield, and scream like crows behind their backs. Useless.

Since the end of the Qing Dynasty, the right to speak in Chinese society has been monopolized by a small number of literati, and this battle on the Middle East Road has shaken their authority for the first time.

Those young students were no longer fooled by them, and many of them simply packed their bags and went directly to the three eastern provinces, wanting to join the Feng army.In addition to the hot-blooded youth, chambers of commerce from all over the country have also made pledges to donate money to Fengjun, and at the same time sent people to the three eastern provinces to have a look.

Businessmen all yearn for order. Now that Fengjun can defeat the great powers, their rule will definitely ensure safety. If it is suitable, these people are also ready to do business in the three eastern provinces.

In short, the land of China was shocked by this news. More and more people went north to the three eastern provinces with various purposes, and a trend gradually formed. More and more aspiring young people flocked to the east. In the three provinces, many of these young people have outstanding talents. In the future, they will become the main development force of all walks of life in the Feng family.

In any case, for the first time, the power of Fengjun was deeply remembered by the Chinese people, and some people began to look forward to Fengjun, hoping that such a powerful army could protect their safety.

However, compared to the enthusiasm of the people, the entire Beiyang official has no voice at all. They are completely noncommittal about Fengjun's actions. They can't come up with a charter for how to deal with Sino-Russian relations and end this conflict. Beiyang was learning from an ostrich and buried his head, as if there was nothing about the Middle East Road.

In fact, there is a reason for being so confused. The chaos on the Middle East Road is beyond the control of the Beiyang government. Duan Qirui has no idea what actions Russia will take.However, Britain, Japan and other countries are ready to move, and their attitudes are different. The international community is in chaos, and the domestic folk sentiment is boiling again.

If you support Fengjun, you may offend the big powers, and Beiyang does not dare to conflict with Russia. If you don’t support Fengjun, the sentiment of the people will overwhelm them. You simply pretend that you don’t know anything, so you can leave yourself a way out .

Zhang Tinglan has no time to take care of the domestic chaos. His main task now is to take advantage of the emptiness of the Russian Far East and snatch good things. After Constantine's troops are wiped out, the Russian Far East has less than [-] troops. It seems that there are a lot of people, but there are too many places to defend.

The entire eastern section of the Siberian Railway must be taken care of, especially in places such as Khabarovsk and Vladivostok, where no troops can be mobilized.Another unit called the Far East Zì yóu Army also began to move. After the defeat, the Russian people became more and more dissatisfied with the government.

Ivanov took the opportunity to promote his ideas and constantly expand his influence, and Zhang Tinglan also increased his investment in him. Half of the guns seized this time were sent to Ivanov to let him expand his armed forces. strength.

The Russians had internal and external troubles, and there was a huge gap. Zhang Tinglan had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and immediately decided to attack Shuangchengzi and snatch the vital machine repair factory.Young Marshal Zhang Xueliang was already eager to try, he took the initiative to ask for orders and got this task.

A thousand elite troops were dispatched from the Feng army as the main force of the raid.This operation is actually the first time for Fengjun to go abroad to fight. There are many things that need to be carefully planned, otherwise a little accident will bring heavy losses to Fengjun.

"Hanqing, this time I have contacted quite a few bureaucrats in the Russian Far East. They will provide intelligence assistance and assist us appropriately. You must pay attention to dealing well with them."

"It would be great to have internal help. After all, it is difficult for a strong dragon to overwhelm a snake. Without the help of Russian forces, it is not so easy to get it." Zhang Xueliang said: "Zhuoyan, since you have such a relationship, why didn't you use it earlier?" Ah, it won’t be so hard for us to work hard with the Russian army, let these Russian officials do something, and everything will be easy.”

"If we don't win against the Russians, will they be willing to help us?" Zhang Tinglan asked back, and Zhang Xueliang immediately understood the crux of the matter.

In the past, although Zhang Tinglan had a smuggling intelligence network, these people would not easily betray the country, and they were not optimistic about Fengjun, so they were even less willing to take advantage of Fengjun's fire. This principle is the same in later generations. It is difficult for backward countries to buy Officials of advanced countries, on the contrary, those powerful countries have a bunch of political puppets of small countries in their hands.

Now Fengjun has easily defeated the Russian army, demonstrating its great strength. In the game field of the Far East, Fengjun finally has its own status. At the same time, some Russian officials are finally willing to establish a good relationship with this dock. After all, Russia is still in chaos. , everyone needs to find a way out.

With these internal help, Zhang Xueliang's actions were much easier. They crossed the border and quickly attacked Shuangchengzi. Constantine, who was still in shock, fled in a hurry and ran directly to Vladivostok. Zhang Xueliang temporarily occupied Shuangchengzi without firing a single shot. Chengzi.

"The commander-in-chief has requested that we can't occupy Shuangchengzi for a long time, so we must evacuate this city as soon as possible. Wu Kaijie, you immediately take control of all financial institutions such as banks and get all the cash deposits. Zhang Tingshu leads the troops to Take over the ordnance repair shop and remove all the machines that can be used in it. Zhang Henian is in charge of the direction of the railway station and gathers all the locomotives that can be used. We need to use the railway to transport materials!"

After Zhang Xueliang assigned the task, everyone went to get busy. He personally led some people to the machine repair factory and went straight to the rail processing workshop. This is the main goal of Feng Jun. With this thing, the railway can be processed. The last problem of the army's self-built railway was also solved. When he saw the machine and the piled up rails, Zhang Xueliang couldn't help but exclaimed excitedly: "It's done!"

Chapter 328 Meeting in Embarrassment

The Trans-Siberian Railway crosses the Eurasian continent, and is located in the worst climate area. The lowest temperature along the line exceeds minus [-] degrees. The machinery and equipment are easily damaged, and there is a large area of ​​permafrost, which also increases the construction work. difficulty.

In addition, there is another terrible problem in Siberia. About six or seven months of twelve months are in the snow and ice, and there are two months of muddy time. The harsh environment is far beyond the experience of most Chinese people. imagine.

The harsh environment made the Siberian Railway have to be repaired frequently, and the consumption was astonishing. This is why Tsarist Russia insisted on building the Middle East Road. After all, traveling through Northeast China can reduce a lot of losses.

Because of the need for maintenance all year round, the Shuangchengzi Machine Repair Factory will be equipped with a rail workshop, and it has stockpiled a lot of tools and machines for maintenance, as well as a large amount of spare materials. It is too urgent for Constantine to escape, and these things are all intact. The moving ones stayed in the factory.

Zhang Xueliang walked around the factory, and immediately smiled. Although he didn't know what these machines and equipment were, Zhang Xueliang was sure that they were all good things, and they could be used when they moved back to the Northeast.

Even if it can’t be used, it can be melted and re-smelted steel. After all, Anshan Iron and Steel has just broken ground, and it is still far away from real steel production. The Fengjun urgently needs a lot of good steel, so Zhang Xueliang ordered the soldiers to move away as much as possible Don't leave a single screw behind.

These Fengjun soldiers also moved in a hurry. They all knew that these things were things to enhance their industrial strength, especially after hearing that they could produce railroad tracks by themselves, Fengjun could build railways with their own strength, and then There is no need to be threatened by the Japanese.All the soldiers are extraordinarily energetic.

The machine repair factory is connected to the railway, and there are still many locomotives. At this time, Zhang Henian has already started, kidnapping several train drivers and sending them over. With the drivers, the train can be used. Moved to the train, ready to quickly transport back to Suifenhe.

At this moment, Zhang Xueliang walked to the back of the factory.They found a shed. There was a tall wall outside the shed, and the doors were all locked. It looked heavily guarded. Zhang Xueliang only regarded it as a warehouse.Hurriedly let the Fengjun soldiers be smashed by the lock.

The door was smashed open, and a sour smell came out from inside.It makes people sick.At this time, the small door of the shed inside was also opened, and a few extremely thin faces protruded from the inside, looking out tremblingly.

These people are all yellow-skinned and black-eyed, and they are not Russians at all. Zhang Xueliang was also a little puzzled, and couldn't help asking: "Are you Chinese?"

Those trembling faces finally saw clearly the soldiers outside.He also heard the voice of speaking clearly, and suddenly these people burst into tears, piercing their hearts, as if they were filled with endless grievances.

Gradually, more and more people came out of the shed.They were all in ragged clothes, the colors of the clothes on their bodies could not be distinguished, their faces were very dirty, their hair and beards were messed up, and there were a few strong people wearing torture instruments on their hands and feet. , all showed expressions of disbelief.

After a while, an older worker asked, "Sir, are you our country's army?"

When Zhang Xueliang saw these people, he guessed a thing or two. Since the Russians built the Siberia Railway, many Chinese workers had been introduced.The Chinese are hard-working and seem to never tire. This national nature is exploited by these dirty colonists. Americans build railways in the west and use a large number of Chinese laborers. Russians build railways in the Far East. They also use Chinese laborers, but there is one thing that is the same Yes, these Chinese laborers are not treated as human beings, they are pathetic piggies!

Compatriots and relatives are connected by blood. Looking at the conditions of these people, one can tell that they must be living a life that is not as good as pigs and dogs. Zhang Xueliang also felt a burst of sadness.
