In a cathedral-like building not far from the pier, nearly twenty Russians were gathered at this time. Novavich looked at the captains, and several of them were commanders of the ground forces in the city of Burleigh, each with either a warship or a powerful army.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you have been called here today because we all have a friendship of working together, the Tsar is now gone, and the former royal family is now in disarray, and there is no news of it under the pursuit of the evil Soviets. We have lost our allegiance, and the west of Siberia has completely fallen into the hands of the Red Soviets. Boli is a lonely city hanging outside. It's time for us to plan for ourselves. ”

Sdner looked at the crowd with a stern expression, and he had discussed with Novlavich that he was not enough to rely on a warship, and that he had to gather more companions to join him. Otherwise, they don't have much use value for the Northeast, and since they have decided to sell their lives to the Northeast, of course they have to sell it at a good price.

"Sidenay, what do you mean? Are you planning to betray Burleigh? Checherov slapped the table and stood up, his beard shaking with a loud voice, and the spit was almost sprayed in Styne's face.

"That's it, Stenne, you gather the guys, what the hell is the idea, hurry up, don't delay us from drinking." An army colonel burps and carries a steaming flask in his hand.

"It's not interesting, I just don't want to die in Boli like this. The whole of Tsarist Russia is now in chaos, do you think you can hide in Boli and be safe? Now, whether it is the Soviets, Japan, or the Northeast, they all covet Boli, don't think that you can stay out of it by temporarily indulging in the flowers. If we don't come up with a countermeasure now and sell our strength at a good price, we will soon lose the foundation on which we rely for our livelihood. Sidenay grimaced, looking very unhappy, "Since you think I'm delaying your time for drinking and having fun, then we all disperse." Let's find a way out. ”

With that, Sdner angrily slapped the table and was about to leave.

"Sdne, Chechekov is drunk, don't be angry, since you have gathered us, you must already have an idea in your heart, you might as well tell us, if it makes sense, let's make a decision together. You're right, if we don't sell it at a good price while we have soldiers and ships in our hands now, we won't have a choice when the enemy soldiers come to the city. Rovman said as he grabbed Sdner with a twinkle in his eyes.

Sidene tore open the two buttons on his military jacket, revealing the thick chest hair under his neck, looking like a beast, "I don't know, I just want to get everyone together to get an idea." It is better to act together than to go it alone. In addition, Novlavich brought a piece of news. At least 30,000 people of the Northeast Army have arrived on the other side of the Amur River, and the number of troops who have crossed the river is unknown. ”

"What? Thirty thousand troops from the Northeast appeared on the other side of the Amur River. And the striker has already appeared in the area thirty miles west of Burleigh? When everyone here heard the news, they were all shocked? And the faces of the captains of more than a dozen gunboats were even more flushed, I don't know if it was because of too much vodka, or because of the shock and suddenness of the news.

"Yes, you can send someone to scout. If we all have captains here, if we take refuge in the enemy and have no warships, it is better to pack up our possessions as soon as possible and go to Harbin or Mukden City in the northeast of the south, where a large number of Russians have settled, and many nobles who have fled from Russia and Europe have chosen to stay there. Sidene pouted, "I've already asked my henchmen to pack up their things and deposit some of their money in Huaxing Bank, and you also know that Daosheng Foreign Bank is no longer good now, so I have to make another plan." ”

"You mean you want to defect to the Northeast, that's not okay, we just fought with the Northeast Army on the Middle East Road, with tens of thousands of casualties, and the losses of the Northeast Army are not small, they won't hold grudges? It is difficult to have a good end in the past. The captain of the gunboat Deye, Inoda shook his head, his seat ship had a displacement of more than a thousand tons, and was in no way inferior to Styne in terms of equipment.

"That is, in terms of strength, Japan is much stronger than the Northeast, since it defected, it is natural to choose a strong backer, the strength is too weak, how can we guarantee it in the future?" The captain of another gunboat nodded and said, "Japan's navy is one of the most powerful navies in the world, and there is no opponent in Asian waters. ”

"Hmph, that's not necessarily possible, I think it's because the Japanese Navy is strong, our small gunboats are just errand roles for the Japanese army, so they are even less valued, and Japan's combined fleet is a large ship, no matter how strong it is, it can't enter the Amur River, so what's there to be afraid of?" Puskin, who has always had a good relationship with Stynet, said coldly, "If you want to talk about war, the Japanese army used to suffer more casualties in the fortress of Arthur, and since the Japanese army landed in Vladivostok, the army has burned, killed, looted, and done everything, how can you ever put our remaining forces in your eyes, on the other hand, although the northeast is relatively weak, it is quite friendly to us Russians, some of my friends are now in Mukden, and there is no special racial discrimination there, even the safety of Russian life and property is protected by law, I think it would be more appropriate to take refuge in Tohoku than to be cruel to the Japanese. ”

There was a lot of controversy in the city, and by this time the Japanese advance had already hurried to Boli. However, just as Japan understood that Tohoku wanted to take action against Boli. The intelligence agencies in Tohoku also detected the accelerated pace of Japan's military advance. The first two trains of the Japanese army bound for Boli fell victim to the secret wrestling between the two sides.

"Hey, Lastu, are you really sure those packs of bombs can take down a train?" In the snow, a bearded middle-aged man wearing a plush dogskin hat was silent to the side of Gazanev, Lastu is a new name for Gazanev, and the mission of ambushing the Japanese train was inconvenient for the Northeast Army to come out directly, and it was easy to fall on Gazanev, a native of Russia.

This was the Soviet Union waging a people's war, using the forces it could use to consolidate its power and resist the intervention of the foreign powers. (To be continued......)
