Chapter 331: Burley Strategy
The Boli dockyard, a row of horses loaded with a cart full of goods, neatly parked there, covered with sackcloth, could not be seen clearly
"Stand upright! Salute to the Chief! β
In the shouting of Sidene, the sailors of each ship gave a military salute to Ye Hong in front of him, as well as Luo Qizheng, who came with him, a little lazily.
Ye Hong frowned slightly, the Northeast pinned the hope of the re-emergence of the Republic of China Navy, because although there are few soldiers in the Northeast Navy Department, because the things on their shoulders are too heavy, the training is extremely hard. In comparison, these Russians seem to be too lazy, and with these people in front of them, I am afraid that even with the same equipment, they will definitely not be able to kill the Japanese. However, Lao Maozi has always been lazy, otherwise how could he lose to the Northeast, and after figuring this out, Ye Hong was also relieved a lot.
"Bring it on!" Lodge was shouting loudly when he saw several gendarmes marching in front of the Russians with six soldiers of the Northeast Army and four Russian sailors.
"These people fought in public, the cause of the incident has been ascertained, the perpetrator is a soldier of our Northeast Army, but several other former Russian soldiers retaliate privately, and this kind of behavior is never allowed. If the soldiers of the former Northeast Army make mistakes, our army will punish them with its own military discipline, and private revenge is not a sign of believing in military discipline. In order to show fairness, each side will be beaten with 30 military sticks, small punishments and big warnings, and if there is a recurrence next time, it will not be tolerated! Rocky was yelling with a straight face, "Execute it in public immediately!" β
As the crackling board fell, mixed with screams of pain one after another, the expressions of the lazy Russian soldiers, including the officers, changed. The military appearance is slightly better.
"Colonel Ye, I'm done. I'll leave it to you later. Luo Qi was saying to Ye Hong, although he had been promoted to rear admiral, Ye Hong's military rank was lower than his, but in the future, the navy would get bigger and bigger in the territory of the Northeast Army sooner or later, and as the father of the navy, Ye Hong's status in the future would probably not be lower than him. Rocky is not taking a big gesture either.
"Master Luo, don't worry, I'll leave it to me here." Ye Hong's eyes were full of gratitude, the way of Huaxia has been passed down for thousands of years, one sings with a white face, the other sings with a red face, and now the soldiers who are at fault on both sides are each beaten with thirty military sticks, without the slightest favoritism, it seems that the white man has been punished, but he has not divided each other. Later, it was up to him, the newly appointed commander of the fleet, to be a good man.
Luo Qi nodded and hurried away with a few guards, now there are a lot of things in Boli City, Ye Hong only brought five officers here, and sixty naval soldiers from Yingkou, if you want to control thirty-three gunboats, there is a long way to go. However, he dared not to be easy, the 6th Division had just entered Boli, and the 6th Division was almost disabled in a battle with the Japanese army. A large number of troops were replenished, and the original team needed to be run-in, and the defenses scattered around Burleigh were scattered. and preventing the harassment of Boli by the Red Russian guerrillas. At this time, the infantry of the 6th Division was really difficult to face these situations, so they called the staff headquarters to ask for a cavalry brigade, and after the ice and snow melted, a cavalry brigade would be responsible for covering the defense around Boli, which could be regarded as able to support the scene.
"Just now, Division Commander Luo punished the soldiers who made mistakes on both sides. Please also ask the soldiers and officers present not to take it to heart, the Northeast military law is strict, whether it is the original soldiers of the Northeast Army or you who are about to become a member of the Northeast Army. It's all the same, and with the credit, it will be rewarded. If you make a mistake, you will be punished. In the future, you will no longer be the Amur River Fleet, but the Heilongjiang Fleet of the Northeast Army, and from today onwards, everyone will be equipped with new military uniforms, equipped with the armaments of the Northeast Army, and warships will be replaced with the flag of the Northeast Army. Below, the former commanders of each ship directed the soldiers to line up to receive supplies. β
Hearing that there is something to lead, the soldiers below are suddenly excited, even when the tsar is there, the life of these big-headed soldiers is very hard, the Russian soldiers who used to be entrenched in the Middle East Road will often go into the mountains to hunt tigers, black bears and other things to make some extra money. Since the start of the European war, these lowest-level soldiers have not even thought about supplies such as daily necessities, and occasionally even some of them have fallen into the pockets of officers. The corrupt Cheng dΓΉ of Tsarist Russia was not much inferior to that of the Qing government.
"A towel, a toothbrush, and a cup for each person. Two sets of military uniforms, two pairs of military shoes, three pairs of socks, and one set of quilts. β
"Oh, the commander of the Northeast is really too generous." Some of the old soldiers, even when the conditions in Tsarist Russia were very good in the past, it was difficult to receive so many things at one time, and occasionally received some things, which were also eliminated from Russia and Europe, and Russia has attached great importance to the development of heavy industry, and light industry has always been very weak, and these materials are not very abundant even in Russia and Europe, let alone in the Far East, where light industry is almost blank. Sometimes, even if you have money, you don't have much place to buy it, and a lot of daily necessities are bought from the poor and backward northeast in the south.
The soldiers who received the belongings were dressed in shabby clothes, which were already unbearable in the cold weather, and many of them had worn their shoes, but they could not be replaced. The soldiers who received the things couldn't help cheering one by one, and many of them had already put the brand-new furry dogskin hats on their heads, and if it weren't for the commander's reprimand, I am afraid that they would have taken off their clothes and changed them in public. And the Russian soldiers who were still queuing up at this time all stretched their necks behind them and looked at them.
"I can't imagine that the treatment of the Northeast Army is so good, I won't leave if I am killed, what can I do if I take refuge in the Japanese? I heard that on the Vladivostok side, the Japanese didn't treat us Russians as human beings, and killed a few Russians casually, nothing happened, you see this Northeast Army, not only did it fight fiercely, but if we Russians defeated it, it was the fierce Japanese army, and the whole army was defeated and retreated, just like a dog. β
The Russian soldiers who received the things below began to talk that under the propaganda of some Russians bought by the northeast, they could say a few things about the atrocities of the Japanese army. And the things that are said are based on evidence, not fabricated out of thin air.
"Yes, compared with the brutal Japanese army, the Northeast Army is brave and merciful, and the soldiers on our warship fought with the people of the Northeast Army, and I thought that this life could not be saved. Unexpectedly, it was just a beating, and even the people on the side of the Northeast Army were beaten, and the Northeast Army was really fair. β
"Who said no, even in the past few days, after the logistics of the Northeast Army have been smoothed, we usually eat much better, and the salt we eat is much better than before, not only bread, but also a small amount of sauerkraut. The supply of eggs, no longer as before, can also get a little coal from time to time for heating, the house we live in has also been repaired, and with these quilts, the winter will not be as difficult as before. β
These poor Russian soldiers recounted the subtle changes in their lives since the Northeast Army took charge of Boli, and the Russians liked sour and salty foods. Sauerkraut and the like are difficult to gather for the time being, but there is no shortage of salt in the Northeast. Compared with the crude salt made by the Russians in the past, it is undoubtedly much better. Served with baked bread and eaten with the occasional egg dipped in salt. Occasionally, you can cook a fish soup, which is undoubtedly better than the previous precarious days. These Russians have also lived a hard life, they can't get it before, and it is also the idea of many Russians to be able to mix food and clothing, and life in troubled times is not as good as dogs. The great powers, Red Russia, and various local armed forces left over from Tsarist Russia, poured into each other. A stable place can solve the problem of food and clothing. There was a fatal temptation for both these Russian soldiers who had nowhere to go, and the poor Russians.
Compared to the soldiers, the officers had more things, military boots, military coats, sabers, and a Bailangning standard pistol, equipped with 200 rounds of ammunition. Let these officers be replaced.
Watching these original Russian soldiers obediently lower the original flag and replace it with the five-color republican flag, Ye Hong showed a satisfied smile on his face.
After the initial panic, the soldiers who received the supplies behind began to become orderly. Ye Hong pulled over Side, who was as strong as a bear, and a group of Russian officers.
"Sidene, you are the commander-in-chief's newly appointed deputy commander of the fleet, and most of the others are also captains. The Northeast treats all soldiers of ships equally. The materials used by the leader should be the same as those of other soldiers, but they should also bear the corresponding obligations. Many of the gunboats in the fleet are aging and unusable, so after the river ice melts this time, a few gunboats will be eliminated. In addition, in terms of personnel, they must also go through a certain assessment again, whether it is a soldier from the Northeast or a Russian, they must go through the same assessment. If you don't go through it, you will be eliminated, and I hope you will understand this, and explain it to the soldiers afterwards. β
"Your Excellency the commander, rest assured, this is reasonable, the military resources in the Northeast cannot be consumed at will, and some people who are lazy and useless should be raised." As the first person to take refuge in the Northeast, plus its gunboat was one of the main gunboats of the original fleet, at this time he was exceptionally promoted to the person whose status was second only to Ye Hong in the fleet, and he couldn't help but feel fortunate to be prescient, and at the same time, for the Northeast, Sidene also had a more understanding, as long as he had the ability, although he was from a Russian background, he could always be reused. As one of the people who benefited the most from the Russians this time, Styner naturally sold all of himself to the Northeast, and was the first to respond to Ye Hong's suggestion.
"Well, in addition, there are many soldiers in the fleet who have rich experience on the water, and some of them will be transferred to the Yingkou Military Port in Fengtian Province in the south, which is the base of the future navy of the Northeast Army, and there is already a newest destroyer, two destroyers, and a light cruiser under construction. No matter what, as long as you have the strength and are loyal to the Northeast, how much merit you have, the Northeast will reward you for your merits and give you the corresponding status. β
Ye Hong first gave these Russians a dose of preventive injection. As the surface fleet covering Heilongjiang and the only surface force, Qin Yu naturally would not rest assured that all of them would be handed over to the Russians, so he sent Ye Hong over, laid off some Russians, and then added some Northeast Navy soldiers, and then transferred some Russians to Yingkou Military Port, and after a while, this Heilongjiang fleet would in fact completely belong to the Northeast.
Compared with the navy, the Russian army in Boli City has already carried out similar measures, but the black-faced Zuo Yunong has been reinstated to the south, and the white-faced Rocky is becoming the commander of the 6th Division. At this time, all the Russian troops in the city have changed into brand-new blue-gray military uniforms, which can be regarded as a unique scene.
"I think back then, Lao Maozi rolled east, killing rivers of blood, Huaxia Erlang in the Outer Xing'an Mountains was either killed or expelled from the country, and now our Northeast Army is going north, but we have to treat these Russians preferentially, in comparison, it is really a little resentful." Huo Qingyun shrugged his head and rode a horse on the street, he was a nationalist, and he had a special grudge against the bad things that Lao Maozi had done in the Northeast in the past, but Huo Qingyun had to obey the orders of his superiors.
"You know the! Wenzhi and military attack, how can the strategy set by the marshal be so redundant? In fact, when the Northeast adopted gentle methods against the Russians, the Northeast Army had no objections, but this matter was suppressed by Qin Yuyi, and the General Staff Department had discussed similar topics many times, and there was a difference between the northward movement of the Republic of China and the eastward advance of Tsarist Russia.
At the beginning, the Qing government was decadent and backward, and Tsarist Russia was not only equipped with a large number of standard weapons, but also formed a relatively complete military industrial system in China. The Qing Dynasty was worried about external and internal troubles, and even the domestic civil strife could not be quelled, and the fear of foreigners had been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, so it naturally could not resist the eastward invasion of Tsarist Russia. Relatively speaking, the Russians are more belligerent, and Qin Yu understands that the Red Russia has a set of ideological work, and the guerrilla tactics are even more troublesome, and if you want to prevent and control the guerrilla tactics of the Red Russia, the only way to dig off the bottom of the other party is to dig out the bottom of the other party and pull these civilians over, instead of pushing them into the arms of the other party.
On another level, since the overthrow of the Tsar, a large number of Russian nobles and intellectuals have fled eastward into the Northeast, contributing tens of thousands of deposits to the large and small banks in the Northeast, and those intellectuals have also made a lot of contributions to the development of the Northeast industry. And Qin Yu, as a traverser, knows what a brutal dictator Stalin is in the future, the Great Purge, the elimination of the rich peasants is even more killing, Qin Yu wants to split the hearts of the Red Russian people, and finally achieve the goal of splitting the territory of the Red Russia, relative to the ownership of these millions of square kilometers of land, the previous little hatred is not so important, in the past, the Mongols destroyed the Song Dynasty, and the Qing army went south, the disaster for the Han people was far greater than that of the Russians. These Russians will eventually be integrated into China. The difference is that in the past, it has always been passive, but this time it is active with a different purpose. (To be continued......)
