Chapter 141: A Visitor from Beijing
When the second dawn came, the Suidong army once again took full control of the city of Vladivostok, and Petrov once again became an empty mayor without the slightest power, as Nevsky expected, the cunning Chinese general would not give up the benefits he had so easily,
After this war, the Suidong Army was greatly reduced, and the expansion of the army became an imminent problem, but because Wu Xiaoliang took the route of elite soldiers, the requirements for soldiers were extremely high, and the soldiers had to at least graduate from high school, so there were very few qualified.
But surprises often come unprepared, the third fleet from Tianjin arrived in Vladivostok at noon that day, in addition to transporting a large number of military supplies, there are two long-lost old friends, Wu Xiaoliang routinely came to the dock to welcome, at first glance, I couldn't help but be very excited,
"To you, Xiuwen, how did you come?"
But seeing Fang Qidao and Chen Xiuyan, the gray military uniforms were ironed very well, and they both stood on the bow of the boat, full of ambition, as soon as the boat docked and the pedals were on, the two of them ran impatiently.
The three Baoding classmates clasped their hands tightly, and Fang Qidao took the lead in speaking: "Weizhong, I won't leave this time." ā
Chen Xiuyan echoed with a smile on the side: "Yes, knowing that you are short of manpower here, Brother Zhi and I came." ā
Wu Xiaoliang's heart sank after being excited, and the two of them came lightly, could it be that the old foundation of the Fourth Mixed Brigade had been plundered, which was the last thing he wanted to see, Fang Qidao seemed to see his worry, and hurriedly said: "Weizhong, look behind me." After saying that, he flashed around, and saw the soldiers on the transport ship crowded, cheering in unison: "Long live the brigade commander, long live the brigade commander." ā
A sinking heart stirred again,
With the help of Wang Ruxian, the overseer of Hunan, he finally led the first regiment of the original Fourth Mixed Brigade to return to Beijing, and was supported by Xu Shuzheng.
At the same time, there is even greater good news, Chen Xiuyan has been appointed by the Beijing government as the envoy of Mu Ling Town, including Dongning, Mu Ling, and Ning'an are within its jurisdiction, so this time the arrival of the two has greatly enhanced the strength of the Suidong Army, Mu Ling is the important town of the transportation hub of the Middle East Railway, and controlling it is equivalent to controlling half of the Middle East Railway in China, although the Russians have a railway bureau specializing in the management of the East China Railway, but they have long had no time to look east due to frequent civil wars, and it is a good time to control the Middle East Road,
On the same day, Wu Xiaoliang issued an order to integrate the original 4th Mixed Brigade brought back by Fang Qidao into the Suidong Army and become the 2nd Regiment of the Suidong Army, and quickly took over the northern part of the city of Vladivostok, which they controlled weakly.
Wu Xiaoliang took Fang Qidao and Chen Xiuyan to visit the leased land in Vladivostok, at this time the leased land is a large construction site, and the construction is in full swing everywhere, Fang Qidao sighed: "Brother Wei Zhong is to treat his people in his own way, happy, happy, but unfortunately, hundreds of thousands of territories in the northeast were robbed by Russian robbers, and I don't know when they will all be recovered." ā
Chen Xiuyan also felt happy, but also heard that Wu Xiaoliang still recognized Petrov's rule over Vladivostok, and planned to gradually transfer the control of the city again, and said: "Why don't you directly occupy Vladivostok, the ambition of the Russian wolf is a greedy polar bear, and when they ease up, we will be passive again." ā
Wu Xiaoliang patiently explained: "The reason why Petrov was put in the foreground was because the Suidong Army did not have enough strength to occupy and hold this territory, the Far East was far more complex than the domestic one, and all forces were intertwined. The most important thing is the second point, if we directly occupy the Russian cities in the Far East, international public opinion will not support us, and in the face of international pressure, the Beijing government is likely to constrain the Suidong army, and at that time, the gains will outweigh the losses. ā
The two of them thought it was reasonable, and slowly walked to the headquarters of the Suidong Army next to the construction site, and the herald hurriedly came to report, his face full of anxiety,
"Brigade commander, a telegram came from Suidong that a Gangzi coal mine in Suidong was attacked by bandits, and countless miners were killed and injured and fled, and now the coal mine has been occupied and has fallen into a state of suspension."
"What." This is equivalent to a stab in Wu Xiaoliang's ribs,
"What is the situation of the coal mine now, and how much miners are lost?" Wu Xiaoliang asked worriedly,
"It is reported that the number of miners lost is being counted, the coal mine has fallen into the hands of unknown bandits, and Commander Yin is currently organizing a counteroffensive, but the other side is outnumbered, and I am afraid it will take some setbacks."
"Let's go, go back to headquarters."
After an afternoon of military meetings, Wu Xiaoliang finally made a decision to supplement the soldiers of the second regiment recruit battalion into the fourth battalion of the first regiment, Wu Xiaoliang personally led the fourth battalion and the first battalion of the second regiment to the north to suppress the bandits, Vladivostok was handed over to Fang Qidao to sit in town, and Chen Xiuyan went north with him, preparing to go to Mu Ling to serve as the guard of Mu Ling Town.
Due to the frequent activities of the Japanese fleet in the waters near Vladivostok, Wu Xiaoliang was not at ease to let Sun Jiayu and Xu Zibing return south by boat, so he decided to take the two of them north together, Mu Ling through the Middle East Railway, South Manchurian Railway and then from Mukden to the customs, this plan was recognized by everyone, and it was agreed that this route was the most stable and appropriate.
Zhang Ergou calmed down and began to mention: "We can't sit and wait for death like this, let alone go to the grass, if the grass falls in the pass, why bother to go to this bitter cold northeast to beg for a living, I see that we go to Wu Overseer." ā
"Ergou, an official as big as Inspector Wu can take us in." Objections were raised,
"I've heard a long time ago, Wu Inspector didn't bring many people in Beijing, what he lacked was soldiers, and a few of us were all masters who were ten with one, how could he not want us."
Everyone immediately came to the spirit when they heard it, the spirit of the mine guard soldiers is obvious to all, a small mine guard is like this, the soldiers must be more majestic, so Zhang Ergou's mention yƬ has been unanimously recognized by the big guys,
"I heard that Wu Overseer is in Suidong City, and Suidong City is in the north, we only need to go to the north to find Wu Overseer's team." Zhang Ergou mentioned yƬ again, and everyone applauded again,
After resting for a long time, they gradually regained their energy, but they had no food, so they had to drink a full water by the stream in the dense forest, and set out on the road overnight.
