Petrov, in addition to sweating profusely and furious, encountered a thorny problem in the work of forming a battleship sailor,

In the shortest possible time, he had recruited nearly 500 Imperial sailors, young men in their twenties who were now over forty years old, some of whom became excellent bakers and some of whom worked as factory workers...... Although they have been away from the warship for more than ten years and have their own stable lives, when they received the call order of Duke Petrov, they rejoined the navy without hesitation.

However, although the former imperial sailors had a lot of enthusiasm, but the problem was also very complicated, first of all, they were not familiar with this giant ship with advanced performance, although Petrov was once the elite of the Russian Imperial Navy, but in the past ten years, the world's naval ship technology has been constantly innovating, and their original technology has been outdated, so they want to go to the prisoner of war camp to find some officers, in order to understand the structure of the warship, and do their best to repair and familiarize themselves with the Hanoi,

After Petrov dragged the Hanoi, which had been flooded into the No. 1 battery, into the Vladivostok shipyard, he ordered the shipyard workers to immediately start working in full swing, drain the sea water in the cabin, and repair the entire battleship as much as possible.

At the same time, he sent Nevsky to the prisoner of war camp to select officers, but before that, the Suidong army was in a state of responding to their needs, and it came to an abrupt end in the prisoner of war camp, and Zhang Ergou, who guarded the prisoner of war camp, hated Lao Maozi to the bone marrow, so when Nevsky took Petrov's handwritten letter to ask for it, the technicians were harshly harassed and ridiculed by Zhang Ergou, and then resolutely refused their request,

"General Wu, how did you break your promise, didn't you promise me that I would respond to my needs on the battleship."

Petrov's series of questions made Wu Xiaoliang stammer, he didn't know about this situation, so he had to smile awkwardly:

"Your Excellency, please don't get excited, sit down and tell me the whole thing slowly from beginning to end."

Looking at Wu Xiaoliang's blank expression, Petrov's heart also shook his previous prejudice against Wu Xiaoliang, it seemed that this young general was indeed unaware, so he told the whole thing as it was.

After listening to Wu Xiaoliang's story, he immediately understood where the crux of the problem was, Zhang Ergou's little brother died in the hands of the Russians, and the original purpose of his participation in the Suidong Army was also to take revenge.

This trend cannot be long, but on the issue of ethnic antagonism, he has to be cautious, and he cannot be treated as an ordinary case of public and private interest to punish the parties.

Zhang Ergou didn't expect that Wu Dashuai would personally settle accounts with him for the sake of a few ridiculed old Maozi, but when he heard Wu Xiaoliang's reason, he lowered his head in shame and felt uneasy about his recklessness.

"Ergou, I know that Lao Maozi killed your little brother, you have a common enmity with them, but we are an army, not bandits in the mountains, Petrov is here for our Suidong Army, he is repairing that warship, the Japanese are likely to come within a month, if this warship can quickly form combat effectiveness, it is extremely beneficial to us, you make it difficult for him, but I didn't expect that it was our Suidong Army itself that made it difficult in the end."

When Ergou blushed and apologized to Petrov, the venerable duke actually hugged the miner who was still a coolie in the coal kiln half a year ago, Petrov is worthy of being a seasoned politician, with his understanding of China's political environment, this kind of statement is undoubtedly the wisest,

Wu Xiaoliang was very satisfied with Petrov's statement, but he did not expect that this small episode only troubled the Suidong Army, and the beginning of the contradiction between the two factions in China and Russia in the next 20 years eventually evolved into the contradiction between the 6th Army of the Navy.

Good news was delivered to Wu Xiaoliang's office every day, but this state did not last long, and the news of disharmony soon appeared, and the Beiyang government sent a telegram to reproach Wu Xiaoliang's behavior.

Among them, President Xu Shichang rebuked Wu Xiaoliang in an extremely stern tone for his own selfish interests, disregarding the country and the nation, and lightly starting a war to bring the country to the brink of war, and the Beijing government will not take any endorsement action against it except for not recognizing the note of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and if Japan attacks Vladivostok, the Beijing government will maintain a neutral attitude.

After Yin Chengfu learned the news, he scolded Xu Shichang for being a bastard, what are the soldiers of the Suidong Army hanging alone outside the country and throwing their heads and spilling their blood.

"It's a big joke in the world, saying that we are for our own selfish interests, and those general and deputy ministers in Beijing, including the president of India, are loyal to the country." Fang Qidao, who was no longer the hot-blooded young man at the beginning, was very excited, and his rare words became intense.

Wu Xiaoliang was angry at the shamelessness of the bigwigs of the Beiyang government, and had a deep feeling of being betrayed.

A telegram from the Beiyang government cast a layer of ominous clouds over the Suidong Army, and there was a feeling that the mountains and rains were about to come and the wind was full of buildings, as if Japan's large-scale invasion and revenge were only in the morning and night, so in addition to the repair work of the Hanoi was still carried out step by step, the expansion work of the 6th Army was all advanced, and all the officers and cadets of the training class graduated ahead of schedule and entered the army.

The Hanoi ship, which was under renovation, was officially renamed Sui Dong, and Duke Petrov sent all the sailors to the only two destroyers in turn for training, so that the sailors could adapt to life on the ship, but because the Hanoi ship had a capacity of 900 and his former imperial sailors were only nearly 500, he asked Wu Xiaoliang to send additional personnel for him,

However, most of the soldiers of the Suidong Army were northerners, and they did not meet the requirements of quickly forming combat effectiveness, so they had to screen out some fishermen living in Liaodong from the temporarily recruited auxiliaries to make up the number of 400.

At the same time, twenty officers were selected in the Suidong Army, and they were incorporated into the four hundred fishermen to serve as the backbone, and what made everyone stumble was that Wu Xiaoliang appointed Zhang Ergou as the deputy captain of the Suidong ship, and the military rank was promoted to lieutenant colonel.

Just when the Suidong Army was preparing for war, a warning from local fishing boats came from the sea off Vladivostok, and a fleet of ten warships was approaching from south to north.
