Song Biao had already guessed that Aoki Xuanchun's goods had always been exported, so he could only answer very simply: "Dazuo praised." ”

Aoki Xuanjun said: "Your Excellency dared to ambush 400 people with the strength of 40 people, including 182 people from our squadron, and he was so brave and strong, even if it was a place with many heroes, it was the only case. Our army Shaozuo encountered an ambush by the Russian army here, the Russian army is numerous, Your Excellency is not chaotic in the face of danger, and the troops are all annihilated, and the Russian army dares to kill the Russian army here. You can know everything from a small point to a big thing, and your Excellency is a hero, this is my judgment. ”

Song Biao continued to reply: "Da Zuo praised it, it's just a matter of being angry. ”

Aoki Xuanchun pondered for a moment and said, "In China that day, how many people can dare to be angry?" Your Excellency don't be humble, I was fortunate enough to arrive in Tonghua a few days ago to deploy a local special mission, and after hearing about your deeds, I couldn't wait to come to see you. Before me, Hanada Shaoza had already met with you, and I categorically didn't know what he talked about with you, could you please inform me? ”

Song Biao thought for a while and said, "Actually, nothing was negotiated, he just gave ten gold bars to compensate for my losses in the battle of Qiandongling, that's all." In fact, the original talk was quite harmonious, he wanted to buy rice, I wanted to continue to hoard and so on, and his female translator threatened me with the matter of the mine mortgage. Anyway, I just received Niujiabao at that time, and there were so many things that I was in the mood to talk about, where did I think that as soon as I got on the horse and was about to leave, they and the Russians killed in the tunzi, hurting the lives of many people in my tunzi. ”

Aoki Xuanchun sighed silently, and seemed to be really sad and sighed: "I'm really sorry, because this war has caused you trouble, but this war is imperative, if you don't send troops, Russia will completely annex the Northeast, it is undeniable that our army has the support of Britain and the United States and other countries, and everyone still has interests in the Northeast, but what we want is just to have equal interests, and Russia wants to occupy the Northeast." The Chinese have a famous saying that the two powers should harm each other, and at this moment, Your Excellency should still join hands with us, not to mention that joining forces to resist Russia will also be of great benefit to your country and Your Excellency! ”

This person is still extremely smart, he talks smart things to smart people, if Song Biao didn't know the development of the future, he might really trust this person completely.

Song Biao was silent.

His attitude is as stubborn as ever, as long as there is an opportunity, Russia will kill, and Xiao Yueben will kill even more.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Aoki Xuanchun immediately said: "Your Excellency Song, I have already reported to the General Staff Headquarters about the loan of Lord Liu Zhai, since Lord Liu Zhai is dead, the matter is over, and the original loan and mortgage matters are over, and they will be written off. As for your desire to sell grain, I think this is the work of a smart man, and I deeply agree with it, and our army will naturally not interfere in your decision-making, but our army is also short of grain at the moment, and if you want to sell it, our army can buy it at any time, and the price is the same as the market price in the Hunjiang and Tonghua areas, or even only high. ”

Song Biao praised: "Thank you Aoki Daizo for your understanding!" ”

Aoki Xuanchun laughed very specially, looking still a very loyal and humble person, and said: "For Your Excellency, I still hope that you can join forces with our army to resist Russia, as far as I know, the Russian army is currently very important to the supply and transportation of Hunjiang County, and has dispatched Cossack cavalry to help defend and protect, our army considers the terrain and plans to carry out interception operations in the Tonghua area, if you help each other, our army will help each other in the name of reciprocity, give you arms and intelligence funding, and the proceeds of interception will naturally belong to you." ”

Song Biao said: "Of course, this is a feasible cooperation. ”

Aoki asked, "I wonder what kind of arms your excellency has for the current situation?" ”

Song Biao knew that as long as he didn't make too many demands at present, Yue Jun would agree, but from then on, he could only follow Yue Ben. He pondered for a moment, and said to Aoki Xuanjun: "There is no consideration in this regard for the time being, if you feel the need in the future, I will take the initiative to contact you." ”

Aoki Xuanchun was slightly stunned, first in Qiandongling, and then in Nandian Tunzi, two small battles with different characteristics made Aoki Xuanchun very clear that Song Biao's troops were extremely brave and good at fighting, which was completely different from the Northeast bandit troops he was familiar with before.

It is precisely for this reason that he deliberately rushed to Hunjiang from Liaozhong to meet with Song Biao, and prepared a large number of arms and materials, as long as Song Biao is willing to ask him for help, he will give Song Biao free guns and ammunition that can arm two regiments, and encourage Song Biao to actively fight with the Russian army.

Song Biao's attitude surprised Aoki Xuanchun, and he quickly realized that Song Biao actually didn't have a good opinion of the Yue Army, which may or may not be the result of the battle of Qiandongling, and Aoki Xuanchun can't judge the specific reason.

After thinking about it for a while, he still persuaded Song Biao very sincerely: "Your Excellency doesn't have to be so stubborn, I know that Your Excellency is still on guard against our army, but I promise that as long as Your Excellency can hold the Hunjiang River, our army will never have any other requirements." ”

Song Biao said: "Holding the Hunjiang River is easier said than done, I don't want to do this kind of thing for the time being, as long as the Russian army does not disturb the people of Hunjiang, I am already very satisfied." On the other hand, there is no direct relationship between the strength of the combat effectiveness of the troops in the era of hot weapons and the number of troops. As long as there is sufficient food, grass and ammunition, well-trained, soldiers dare to fight, and are good at fighting, a force of a hundred men can defeat an army of a thousand. I'm not a bandit, and I don't like the idea that there is strength in numbers. For the time being, I feel that if we can assemble a force of 1,000 people to cross the Hunjiang River, it is enough to carefully select the brothers who dare to fight and focus on training so that each brother can dare to fight well. ”

After a pause, he and Aoki Xuanchun added: "A good war division, no one should be redundant, no one is afraid to fight, and no one is not able to fight, if you want to build such a force, there are a lot of things to think about, and it is taboo to have many guns." ”

Aoki Xuanchun couldn't help but high-five and praised: "Your Excellency's idea is really excellent, I admire it, I have lived in China for many years, even the Governor of Zhili, Lord Yuan Shikai, is also my deep friend, but in my opinion, there are not many people in China who really understand modern warfare like Your Excellency." I would venture to ask here, what do you think of the present war situation in our country and in Russia? ”

Song Biao knew that Aoki Xuanchun wanted to figure out his true thoughts through this question, and thought for a moment before saying: "You are a war between the two countries, I am just the leader of the horse gang running around, my knowledge is shallow, and I don't know the current situation of the two armies, how can I judge it arbitrarily?" However, I think that no matter how the war is now, the most important thing in such a bad thing is never how to fight, but how to end it, as long as the war starts, you have to find a way to end it at the same time, and it can't be said that it is all the way to Moscow, right? ”

Aoki Xuanchun was a little surprised, and nodded very seriously in agreement: "Your Excellency. Today's Kanto is in troubled times, it is the rise of a reckless hero like Your Excellency, I think Your Excellency is a very ambitious person, it is really not appropriate to miss such a good opportunity, not to mention that the Northeast needs Your Excellency's protection is definitely not only Hunjiang County! ”

Song Biao also nodded in agreement, and said: "Dazuo is right, I have been taught, but I don't have the habit of eating in the bowl and looking at the pot." If you think that I just killed a group of Russians just to completely help Yuben, then you must be wrong, my top priority is not to help Yueben, nor to ask for help with Yueben, but to ensure that Russia will not send more troops to toss me, I am not afraid of him to toss, but the villagers of Hunjiang are afraid. You can't be too selfish. As for the war between your country and Russia, the ancients said that those who have attained the Tao will help more, and I think that the victory and defeat have been divided, and my strength is so great, you can't afford to waste your energy on me. As for the so-called court affairs, national affairs, it's not a good thing for my pony gang leader to think too far, the court naturally has the measurement of the court, and it is not my turn to worry about it, although the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, but I think that if everyone can do their part well, it is enough. ”

He said everything so clearly, Aoki Xuanchun's heart was also clear, knowing that he could not win over Song Biao's army and the Russian army to continue fighting, which made Aoki Xuanchun very regretful.

It was precisely because of Song Biao's polite refusal that Aoki Xuanchun realized that this person was completely different from other Northeast bandits, this person had a clear mind and ability, I don't know why, Aoki Xuanchun suddenly felt that Song Biao in front of him was very similar to Yuan Shikai for many years.
