The Russo-Japanese War was a war between Japan and Russia for hegemony in the Far East, but, sadly, it was fought on Chinese soil. Countless Chinese have been displaced and even lost their lives in the fighting.

The Russians lost the war and had to cede the south-northeast. However, the bigger losers are the Chinese. In this war, millions of Chinese have been displaced and left homeless. More than 20,000 people died in the war. This is a war between Russia and Japan, what does it matter to China? What is the matter with those innocent people in China?

At the end of the day, there's only one reason. That is, China is too poor and weak, and it has become fat in the eyes of the great powers. That's why these countries dare to wage war on China's soil. If China were a powerful country, this would not have happened at all.

Although the Russo-Japanese War ended, the division of interests was not over. Under the mediation of the United States, Japan and Russia finally signed the Treaty of Portsmouth after nearly a month of negotiations.

The Treaty stipulated: Tsarist Russia recognized Japan's political, economic, and military privileges in Korea, and Russia could not interfere. Russia transferred to Japan the concession rights of Lushunkou and Dalian Bay, which it had obtained from China, as well as its subsidiary privileges. Russia transferred to Japan the South Manchurian Railway, its branches, rights, coal mines, etc., which it had acquired, to Japan free of charge. Russia ceded Sakhalin Island south of the 50th parallel to Japan and agreed to allow Japanese people to operate fishing in the Sea of Japan, the Sea of Okhotsk, and the Bering Sea off the coast of Russia. Japan and Russia stationed no more than 15 guards per kilometer along their respective railway lines.

Russia lost the war, but it ceded China's interests, which is undoubtedly an insult to China. In fact, representatives of Japan and Russia began peace talks in Portsmouth, USA, in August. The Qing government separately stated to Japan, Russia, and other countries that if there was an incident involving China in the Japan-Russia peace treaty, it would not be recognized without agreement with China. The Qing government also wanted to participate in the peace talks for a time, but was opposed by both Japan and Russia. During the peace talks, Japan and Russia ignored the Qing government's existence and ignored its statement.

Weak countries have no diplomacy, and at this moment, it is vividly embodied. After the signing of the Treaty of Portsmouth, the Japanese began to receive their own benefits. The South Manchurian Railway is undoubtedly the core of these interests. To this end, the Japanese specially formed a railway garrison brigade, which was deployed along the South Manchurian Railway. The headquarters of the railway garrison brigade was located at Gongzhuling, and the garrison was recruited from the reserves. The garrison was divided into six brigades, which were stationed in Gongzhuling, Kaiyuan, Fengtian, Lianshan, Dashiqiao, and Wafangdian, and each squadron was located in various annexes of the South Manchurian-Anfeng Railway.

Because of the change in the situation in Tohoku, the Japanese railway garrison brigade was established a little earlier than before. Although the railway garrison brigade was a conscripted reserve soldier, their equipment and training were no different from those of the regular army. A total of six brigades, 34 squadrons. In addition, there are 37 detachments with 18 personnel each. The entire railway garrison brigade has reached nearly 6,500 people, which is already equivalent to the scale of an independent mixed brigade.

Although, compared to the warlords of the Feng family, the Japanese army's railway garrison brigade did not have many troops. However, in terms of combat effectiveness, with the same strength, there is no unit that is the opponent of the Japanese railway garrison brigade. Even the Jilin Army is certainly more advanced than the Japanese army's railway garrison brigade in terms of equipment. But in terms of soldiers' suzhì and tactics, it is estimated that even the horses will not be able to catch up.

Of course, Wu Haoxuan was not discouraged. The reason why the Japanese army's combat strength is strong is also tempered through arduous training and one war after another. Even so, in the Russo-Japanese War, the number of Japanese casualties reached nearly 90,000, almost three times that of the Russians. With the number of wounded, that number has to more than double.

However, even if the Japanese paid a huge price in this war, it was nothing compared to their gains. They got the whole of the southeastern part from the Russians, which allowed them to legitimately plunder various resources from China to develop themselves. Except for a very small number of resources, Japan's resource bottleneck was solved at once. What's more, the war brought the world recognition of their status as an emerging power.

Even if the Russo-Japanese War was nothing more than a local war. However, the fact that Japan was able to defeat Russia in the Far East still represents Japan's great strength. This made Japan one of the world's great powers. Even if he was the last of the great powers, he was a hundred times stronger than China, which had become a semi-colony.

"Young marshal, the marshal has sent someone to deliver a letter and ask you to go back to Jilin. The Japanese entered Jilin, which made the situation even more chaotic. The handsome man is afraid that you will be threatened! Huzi said to Wu Haoxuan.

In fact, Wu Xingquan was not afraid that Wu Haoxuan's safety would be threatened, as the deputy commander-in-chief of the Jilin Army and the head of the instructor, if the safety of the instructor's station was still threatened, it would undoubtedly be a joke. Knowing a son is like a father, Wu Xingquan knows that Wu Haoxuan has always been disgusted with the Japanese. But now the south of Changchun is in the sphere of influence of the Japanese. In a short period of time, they simply have nothing to do about it. Therefore, Wu Xingquan hoped that Wu Haoxuan could tolerate it for the time being, so as not to cause a conflict.

Although now the three divisions of the Jilin Army have more than 50,000 troops. However, more than half of them are newly recruited recruits, who are still in intense training and have not formed combat effectiveness at all. If a conflict breaks out with the Japanese, it will definitely be the Chinese who will suffer.

After all, although there are not many Japanese troops stationed in China now, the railway garrison brigade seems to be only more than 6,000 people. But in the event of a conflict, they could always get the support of the Kwantung Army and the Korean Army. In terms of national strength, Jilin is even more of an opponent of the Japanese.

"Sue Sù Dashuai, I'll be fine. Besides, I'm not a fool and won't take the initiative to provoke the Japanese! Wu Haoxuan knew what Wu Xingquan meant.

"James, send a battalion to the arsenal and take over the defense there. No one else but our own can put it in. Especially the Japanese! Wu Haoxuan commanded.

The arsenal is the lifeblood of Wu Haoxuan, and this is directly related to the future development of the Jilin Army's military strength, so he cannot afford not to pay attention to it. Now the Japanese also sent a squadron of troops at the Changchun railway station. Who can guarantee that those daring little devils will not attack the arsenal after learning about the storage of the arsenal? If the arsenal is destroyed, then it will be too late for Wu Haoxuan to cry.

In addition, the heavy industrial zone that is being planned will also be a top priority. After it is established, it will also become a key defense place for instructors. The Japanese hope to exploit and plunder China, and obviously will not watch China become stronger. With the character of the Japanese, it is normal to launch an attack in a brutal and unreasonable manner.

Wu Haoxuan only hopes that the brand of American-funded enterprises can scare the Japanese. Although the Japanese won the Russo-Japanese War and became a great power. However, after all, they are just emerging powers, and there is still a big gap between them and old powers like the United States.

It's a pity that Wu Haoxuan doesn't want to cause trouble, but trouble will come to the door by himself.

After the Japanese took over the Changchun railway station, the hard days for the Chinese came. The Japanese brazenly beat the Chinese and even molested women, which made the common people dare to be angry but dare not speak.

On October 1, a train arrived in Changchun and delivered 1,000 tons of high-quality steel. This is the high-quality steel ordered by the Xihua Group in the United States, which can be used to produce weapons, and it is specially reserved by Wu Haoxuan for the arsenal. When Jilin's own steel mill had not yet been built, the various raw materials needed for the arsenal could only be imported from abroad.

Although, this will lead to high costs. However, there is no way around it.

When the truck was unloaded just now, it was piled up in the train station. The patrolling Japanese found these steels, having just finished the Russo-Japanese War, and although the Japanese won the war, they suffered heavy losses. For steel, a strategic material, it is also extremely lacking.

Although there are many Americans in the arsenal, they are mainly managers, R&D engineers and skilled workers. The rest of the workers are mainly Chinese. The people who take care of the steel in the railway station are also Chinese. As a result, the Japanese immediately took possession of the steel as their own.

Garrisoned at Changchun Railway Station was the 2nd Squadron of the 1st Brigade of the Japanese Railway Garrison Brigade, and the squadron leader was Captain Jiro Ono. Perhaps because of the victory in the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese have become somewhat unsightly. So, after listening to the report of his subordinates, Captain Jiro Ono immediately led people to the place where the steel was stacked.

"Yaga, you damn thieves, you dare to steal the steel of the Great Japanese Empire, it's just dead!" Captain Jiro Ono roared at the workers who had been arranged by the arsenal to guard the steel.

At this moment, the Chinese people have a fear of foreigners from the depths of their hearts, and many people are even more frightened when they see this situation.

"Master Jun, we didn't steal it, this was bought by our factory, and we are going to ship it away soon!" A leading worker stammered.

"Smack!" Captain Jiro Ono indiscriminately slapped the infamous worker in the face, and then ordered: "Baga, dare to quibble, arrest these guys for me!" ”
