Chapter 544: German Expedition
In solving the problem of the guerrillas, the Feng army adopted the means of using Russia to contain Russia, and the special combat units of the Feng army only acted as the top soldiers, and the target was only those backbone of the majority of the party, and they were thoroughly cleaned up. The rest of the work was left to the White Russian soldiers, who let them free themselves to wipe out the rebels.
After more than two years of civil war, the Red and White sides have long been like the sea, and most of these White Russians are also from the background of ruffians and bandits, and when they handle cases, they are often more ruthless than the Feng army.
For them, the more they caught, the more they killed, the more they could swallow the property of these victims, and on the other hand, they could get the reward of the army, so they worked very hard, and the search operation was almost out of control.
Prisons throughout the Far East were so overcrowded that large concentration camps had to be set up to stuff all those who were caught. The Russians tossed and turned, and instead of ignoring the army, they rewarded them and let them go. Sophia also passed a special bill encouraging the Russian population in the Far East to report each other, and if the situation is true, they will be rewarded.
This is even more hot, with unimaginable consequences, there is no punishment for reporting mistakes, if you get it right, you can get a bag of flour, for the hungry and cold Russians, this is the best opportunity to make a fortune, so they all widen their eyes and look around for suspicious elements.
If there is no suspicion, they will desperately make false accusations, develop to zuihou, and even forge some documents, stuff them into the home of the dealer, and then report it. But sometimes they also make jokes, and when they frame others, they will also be framed, and as a result, he himself will be arrested.
In less than two months, more than 200,000 people have been imprisoned, more than 30,000 have been executed, and more than 300,000 others have endured the pressure. All fled westward and came under the control of the majority party.
For the refugees who have fled, the Fengjun strictly abides by the principle that they are only allowed to go out and not to enter, and there is no problem in escaping, but it is absolutely impossible to get in, and those young and middle-aged men usually do not let them escape, and those who can escape are the old, weak, sick and disabled, and these people are completely a burden on the majority of the party after they run to Chita and other places. It doesn't help at all, and food is wasted.
The civil war is not over yet, the supply capacity of the Russians is very limited, and the soldiers in the Far East are not enough to eat, where is the energy to take care of these ordinary people. Of course, you can ignore it. However, if it is left alone, it will damage the image of the majority party. Trouble them.
The Queen's new policy was in place in the Far East for less than two months. At first everyone rejoiced, but after these two months, all policies changed dramatically, and the Far East became a prison of terror, a slaughterhouse that devoured life. Killed, expelled. The combined number of imprisoned people has exceeded half a million, a quarter of the population under the Queen's rule.
And this trend has not stopped, it is intensifying. A large number of villages and towns have been desolate due to the disappearance of the population, and some even suspect that in another year, there will be no one left here.
Of course, these people's worries are superfluous, Zhang Tinglan has long discussed with Wang Yongjiang, and formulated a new immigration jihua, they planned twenty immigration settlements around the Siberian Railway, the first batch of immigrants to Russia is one million, the second batch of people will be more, Zhang Tinglan set the goal of five million immigrants to the northeast within three years.
This figure already exceeded the population of Russia at its peak, and with this population as a basis, the Feng army was able to initially realize the Jihua policy of developing the Far East and use the rich resources of the Far East to resist Russian pressure. It can also form a very complementary effect on the three eastern provinces, and it can be said that after digesting the outer northeast, the strength of the Feng army will definitely be greatly improved.
Of course, not all Russians suffered a catastrophe, and there were also a large number of indigenous people in the Far East, all of whom were of the yellow race, who had lived here for generations. It's just that when the Russians came, they were slaughtered and enslaved, and the most Haode land was given to the Russians, and they lost their traditional homeland.
Tsarist Russia focused on expansion, but they did not know how to digest internal contradictions, and the means to solve the national problem were simple and crude, and the grievances between ethnic groups were very deep. The various actions of the Feng army are all aimed at the white people, and for the yellow aborigines, they are more magnanimous, and they have launched a series of co-optation policies.
These people had no loyalty to Russia, and now the Chinese have arrived, and they are all yellow like them, and the two sides are naturally cordial, and soon a large number of aborigines will fall to the Feng army. These indigenous people also joined the sequence of crowding out the Russians, and soon more white Russians were expelled or killed, and the demographics of the Far East changed rapidly.
Just like when the Russians came over and wantonly exterminated the aborigines, dyeing Siberia from yellow to white, now the yellow people have sounded the horn of counterattack and driven the white Russians out.
Zhang Tinglan knew very well that as the winter wore off, a major war between China and Russia was imminent, so the Far East operation had to speed up, purge the Russians, and at the same time bring in more Chinese immigrants to annex the land into his own hands. However, to do this kind of thing, you must have competent people, and you must also be black-hearted, unscrupulous, and the most important point is that if his reputation is stinky, he can also be discarded at any time, and he doesn't have to feel distressed at all.
Looking at Fengjun all over the world, it is really not easy to find such a person, at this time, Yang Yuting suddenly found Zhang Tinglan and said with a smile: "Humble words, there is a person who wants to join Fengjun, I don't know if you can accept it?" ”
"Lingge, don't we have rules, if you are from a military academy, you can start from the grassroots level, and you will be promoted in the future."
"The problem is that this guy is not from a military school, but a bandit!" Yang Yuting said with a wry smile: "This person's name is Zhang Zongchang, he defected to the Kuomintang in the Xinhai year, but later defected and became a general of the Beiyang family. However, Wu Peifu is not very optimistic about a reckless guy like him, and he is very excluded. Not long ago, he led his troops to conquer the Kuomintang in the south, but was defeated, and Wu Peifu directly cut off his military power. ”
As soon as Yang Yuting mentioned Zhang Zongchang, Zhang Tinglan's eyes suddenly lit up, Zhang Zongchang was also one of the famous warlords in later generations, with a lot of nicknames, what kind of dog meat generals, long-legged generals, three unknown generals, mixed world demon kings, and so on. In history, he also took refuge in Zhang Zuolin, and was one of the five tiger generals under him, and later became the commander-in-chief of the Zhilu coalition army.
Zhang Tinglan is still more interested in this famous figure in history, of course, Fengjun is now engaged in regularization construction, and he will definitely not be reused as a general, but such a demon king of the mixed world can be regarded as a talent, it depends on how to use it.
"Humble words, it stands to reason that we should not use this kind of reckless person, but Zhang Zongchang made a living in the northeast in his early years, carried work for the landlord, and went to Vladivostok, where he can speak fluent Russian. It's also a talent, maybe you can use it too. ”
"That's right!" Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Neighbor, let's not hide it, I'm looking for a candidate to help us completely mess up the Far East and clean up those Russians." Zhang Zongchang is the perfect person to do this dirty work, and let him be Sophia's special security adviser, in charge of cleaning up the majority party. ”
Yang Yuting rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "This arrangement is very good, I will immediately inform Zhang Zongchang and ask him to come and see you." ”
Zhang Tinglan waved his hand: "I have to hurry back to Fengtian now, I don't have time to see him, and this piece of the Far East is also being watched by Neighbor Ge for the time being." ”
"Humble words, what's the big deal, so anxious, can't even squeeze out a little time?"
"The German delegation is coming!" Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "The cooperation agreement between our two sides will be finally implemented, do you think this is a happy event?" ”
When Yang Yuting heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, as the chief of staff of Fengjun, he became more and more aware of the powerful power brought by industrialization, and also knew some shortcomings in Fengjun's industry. Cooperation with Germany is the best way to make up for these shortcomings and improve the industrial level.
"Humble words, you have to polish your eyes brightly, from the hands of the Germans, take the real good things, if you digest the German jishu again, and meet the Japanese again, we really have the capital, and we can fight to the death, don't worry about dancing on the tip of the knife!"
Zhang Tinglan explained, and then took Shen Hua, the chief of the guard, to leave Hailan Pao in a hurry, and rushed back to Fengtian, and after rushing back to Fengtian, he immediately found Gu Weijun over. In addition to Gu Weijun, Xia Han also followed, and he tossed in Europe for a year. When he left, the commander of the Feng army was still Zhang Zuolin, and when he came back, Zhang Tinglan already held great power, and the changes in the world were so wonderful.
After seeing Zhang Tinglan, Xia Han was very excited, and hurriedly said: "Old sir, you have fulfilled your mission and successfully completed the task, please instruct!" ”
"Haha, you're welcome, you're all great contributors, tell me about the situation in Germany, how are you negotiating with their government, and what agreements have been reached?"
Gu Weijun said with a smile: "Marshal, Germany was very embarrassed after the war, and the Entente ordered them to hand over 5,000 cannons, 25,000 machine guns, 3,000 mortars, 1,700 aircraft, 5,000 locomotives, 150,000 wagons and 5,000 trucks, and at the same time wantonly deprived Germany of its territory, causing a serious economic and social crisis, an increase in the number of workers, a serious depreciation of the currency, an extreme shortage of food, and a boiling of social resentment. After I arrived in Germany with food, I was warmly welcomed by the German government, who did not understand what was going on with the Fengjun at first, but after explanation, they were very willing to cooperate with us, exchange grain for machinery, and also sent an inspection team to understand what we needed first, and then provide targeted help.
