"Colonel Denikin, what you've been doing lately can be called an espionage operation, although on the surface you helped us coordinate with Russian prisoners of war to help us transport some supplies, but in fact you took this opportunity to spy on our establishment and equipment." The officer leaned forward slightly. "Colonel, you should know that if you are only a prisoner of war, then according to international practice, you can go home now, but if you are defined as a spy, then no international practice or national law can save you, to put it seriously, your current life may only be counted in minutes, do you have anything else to say?"

"I, I did do something that was beyond the normal range, but I didn't have malicious intent, really no malicious intent. Russia cannot and will not become an enemy of China now, we have an even stronger enemy in the West. Looking at the Huaxia officer in front of him, Denikin said with a pale face. At this time, he realized what it means to be a human sword, and I am a fish. He knew very well in his heart the current situation, the other party didn't need any evidence at all, his identity was a prisoner of war, even if the other party had no evidence, wouldn't it still be a big deal to execute a prisoner of war by some means? His motherland will definitely not fall out with China because of this incident, but he is just a colonel, and there are colonels in the Russian Army! The other party doesn't even need to hang up the name of dying of illness, just kill it simply!

"My hometown is in Warsaw, which is very close to Germany, and in the event of a war, we will not be able to stop the Germans." "I'm just a little curious about your army, really just curious. And I've only been close to those tanks when I'm managing soldiers. That's all. Although Zhilu's words were no longer of much use, the Russian colonel was still a little unwilling. He tried his best to show that he had no ill will towards the Huaxia government, but said that he didn't even believe it himself. Because he personally knew that the relationship between Germany and the Chinese government was an alliance, even he didn't have much hope for life at the end of the day.

"Alright, let's take it down." Looking at Denikin, who was a little at a loss, the Chinese officer's face appeared with a meaningful smile. Then he waved his hand and asked the Russian colonel to be taken away. "Tell the above, this person is quite caring, and you can cultivate it as appropriate. At least a little better than those playboys with officers' name tags. ”

Similar scenes appeared from time to time in the Russian prisoner of war camps, where the Russian companions learned that some people were taken away by the Chinese army, and then some never returned. In their minds, these people may no longer be alive. But in fact, there is another path that awaits these Russians. And this matter was personally exceeded by Xu Jie, and the state security department was responsible for directly bypassing the army to carry it out. This scheme has a very funny name called "Bear Training".

It was Xu Jie's established policy to limit and deplete Germany by supporting Russia to a certain extent, because Wilhelm II's appetite was too great. wants to turn all of Russia into his vassals. Moreover, the British also said that if China was willing to support and help Russia. Britain can provide a lot of money and technical support for the Chinese government, China is under construction, naturally short of money, and technical support is more meaningful than funds to some extent, the industrial base of the British Empire is quite strong.

Since we want to help Russia, how to ensure that Russia's combat effectiveness is improved without allowing the Russians to bite back in the future is a task that is quite difficult to balance. However, for a traverser like Xu Jie, this problem is not very big. After all, people are well versed in historical trends. Xu Jie knows very well in his heart that no matter how much he helps Russia, the Russian Army still can't be compared with Germany, and the gap between the two sides from the decision-making system to the industrial capacity to the quality of soldiers and officers is all-round, so to speak, in addition to the characteristics of Russian soldiers who are hard-working and resilient, Russia is basically a negative score from top to bottom. Whether it's the tsar or the top of the officers, it's really not easy to find a few who can fight.

However, there is no high-ranking officer, it does not mean that there is no middle and low-level officer, the Russians after the end of the 1 World War, whether it is the later confrontation against the White Army or against international intervention, there are some high-level officers, and there are many visionaries among these officers, there are some in the White Army and the Red Army, but now those personnel in the Red Army are still too young, and it is still possible to find some people in the White Army. So Xu Jie drew up a list based on his past memories and asked the relevant departments to find people according to the list.

In addition to having a little level for the people on the list, another important factor is that they must hate the Germans, this hatred can be hatred now or with the development of history, for example, Denikin, whether he has a bad feeling for the Germans now Xu Jie does not dare to guarantee, but Xu Jie is sure that when the Germans occupy his homeland and then support a pro-German government, the Russian officer born in Poland will definitely have a great dislike for Germany. The reason is very simple, if you occupy other people's hometowns, can people not hate you? Supporting a pro-German government would certainly be even more unbearable, and historically, Denikin's ability to lead hundreds of thousands of White troops to a place less than 200 kilometers from Moscow must not be considered bad.

Therefore, based on the prisoners of war in this battle, Xu Jie found out some officers of the White Army and the Red Army who were very promising in the future for training. Of course, it would be better if the homeland of these people would be the best in the future German occupation zone. In addition, Xu Jie also has to select some people with a relatively high level of education from the soldiers as the seeds of the future Russian army, after all, it is not enough to have officers and combat theory, but also to have experienced soldiers and low-level officers.

This plan will not be completed by Xu Jie, so the British must be persuaded to cooperate with their actions, the content of which is very simple, that is, let the British and Russians say that some people will be selected from the prisoners of war as the first batch of trainees, Xu Jie's reasons are very sufficient, most of these people have received a certain degree of education, and they are definitely rare in the Russian army with a high illiteracy rate. In addition, it doesn't matter how well you fight, at least you have fought a war, and just relying on this experience has the value of continuing to cultivate!

The British lived up to expectations and very neatly made the Russian government agree to Xu Jie's plan, according to the agreement reached by the two hairs, the Russian government allowed Huaxia to select a force of no more than 5,000 from among the prisoners of war, and they would be equipped with Huaxia weapons and use Huaxia tactics. And after a period of training, they will return home, and then the Russian military will evaluate the force to decide whether to continue the cooperation between the two sides.

As a result, Denikin became the first batch of trainee officers in this way. And there is another person who accepts the same fate as him, whose name is Kolchak! It is said that this guy originally belonged to the navy, so he came to the army to join in the fun! There are a variety of reasons for this hilarious incident of a Navy officer serving in the Army. Many of these reasons are not lacking in subjective speculation.

First of all, it is generally believed at the top level in China that the combat qualities of the Russian naval personnel are much higher than those of the Russian army, and that it is relatively "easier" to train the navy than those in the army, and that the officers and men of both sides are quite restrained and relatively "civilized" in naval battles. In the eyes of the Chinese leadership, the Russian Navy's hostility towards the Huaxia Republic should be less.

Secondly, even Essen believes that for a long time to come, the Russians will actually no longer need a large navy, and there are only two seas that the Russians can operate in the future, one Baltic Sea and the other the Black Sea! How many navies do you need to reach the ground in these two palm-sized seas? It doesn't take much at all, and now Russia has shifted all its energy to land, and the speed of naval expansion will not be very fast. So it's a sure thing that there's a lot of people left. These personnel with professional skills are also idle, or they can only wait for retirement, in this case, it is better to go to the army, and besides, the navy still has a marine.

"Remember, you will always be a member of the navy, our great and noble navy cannot be lost to those dirt buns, in the future, I will be the commander of the Russian naval fleet, and you will be the commander of the marines, and together we will guard the sea gates of Russia." Before leaving, Essen specially met with Kolchak and said such things.

In order to ensure the concealment of the operation as much as possible, the Chinese Army placed this group of Russian officers and soldiers in the newly occupied area, which is inaccessible, not to mention foreigners, except for the soldiers, there are very few other residents, you can see mountains, lakes, grasslands, forests, you can see all kinds of wild animals, but you can never see people! Don't say that you escaped, you can survive in the dense forest for 3 days by yourself. And winter is fast approaching, and the cold weather and desolate wilderness make it even more isolated.

The Chinese dragoons in the Russian population also left a regiment of troops and some other parts of the personnel stationed here, they will serve as instructors to teach these Russians how to fight against the German tanks and artillery in the future, as the most outstanding and sophisticated troops in the entire Chinese army, Cai Ye believes that he is fully qualified for this task.

According to Xu Jie's plan, the 5,000 people will be divided into three parts, of which the army personnel will be organized into a regiment, the navy personnel will be organized into a regiment, and the remaining small number of personnel will learn special knowledge such as espionage, fighting behind enemy lines, sabotage, and communications. The training of the Russians by the Chinese Army was all-round, because Xu Jie knew that it was impossible to stop the Germans by relying solely on the military strength of the Russian Army, and it was necessary to take a multi-pronged approach. So in the cold winter of 1906, Xu Jie's "bear training" plan officially began, and a group of Russian officers such as Denikin and Kolchak also began to receive a very important study and training in their lives, and this training allowed them to survive the future battle!

As a result, as soon as the training began, something unexpected happened, which made Cai Ye a little unexpected.
