Chapter 296: The First Shot

Thirty-six herringbone sheds near the Harbin factory on Zhongdong Road were designed to be inhabited by Chinese workers, and these sheds were low, dark, dirty and cold, especially in the cold winter months, when the north wind was gusting and penetrating, almost indistinguishable from the livestock sheds, in which thousands of Chinese workers lived.

In fact, not only do they live like livestock, but these workers also have to work more than an hour a day, which is similar to that of livestock, and they are completely slaves at the beating and scolding of the Russians.

And this winter for them, it is extremely difficult, the situation in Russia is getting worse and worse, the management of the Middle East Road is also crazy greedy, they deduct the wages and food of the workers, and at the same time, in order to prevent the Chinese workers from resisting, they have strengthened management, when working, there are armed Russian soldiers standing guard, beating and scolding these workers.

Just a few days earlier, when the news of the overthrow of the Tsar had reached the factories, the whole atmosphere had changed dramatically, and many Russians were in mourning, and a large number of Russians were ecstatic, preaching their views, agitating the army to mutiny, and forming a new governing body.

The honest Chinese workers have little interest in these things, and it is clear to everyone that whoever is in power, as long as the Russians are in power, do not want to live comfortably.

However, even if the Chinese workers behaved very honestly, they still could not get rid of their bad luck, and just after Zhang Tinglan issued an ultimatum to Horvat, this guy ordered the whole line to be transferred to military control, not only to strictly investigate the majority parties, but also to control the Chinese workers, to prevent these workers from ventilating and preventing the majority party from inciting them to make trouble.

When the Russian soldiers received the order, they took control of the Chinese workers' quarters. Strict investigation, as long as they think there is a little suspicious, all of them are arrested, and then tortured, more and more workers are beaten to the skin, and terror is shrouded in the sky above the factory.

Inside the shed, there was a corpse on the ground, beaten and inhuman, covered with whip marks and scars from a soldering iron on its chest. Both feet were bloody and blurred, and his face was even more miserable, one eye had been knocked out, and blood was still pouring out.

Around the corpse, more and more workers gathered. Some people could not hold back their tears and crackled down, and many workers were familiar with the deceased. His name is Li Jinao. He is a small foreman, who usually takes great care of the workers, is righteous, and is very respected by everyone.

This time, Russia was persecuting the Chinese workers on a large scale, and he stood up and said a few words of justice. Then they were taken away by the Russians, and when they were carried back again, the people had already been beaten to the point that they did not have much time. I swallowed Zuihou in a breath.

The workers gathered around Mr. Li's body, tears streaming down their eyes, and a few of those close to him clenched their fists.

"Brothers, Brother Li lost his life in order to speak for us, and no one will speak to us in the future, will these thousands of people be bullied to death by the Russians?"

The heart-rending questioning voice of a young worker made everyone present lower their heads, over the years, the big guys have been bullied to the extreme by the Russians, but they are not satisfied, they don't even leave a way to live, and everyone's accumulated anger is burning.

"Damn, we're going to stop doing it, we can eat anywhere, and we won't be grandchildren for the Russians!"

A few workers took the lead in shouting, and others also shouted loudly, as if they wanted to shout out all the anger in their hearts, and then the Russian soldiers who were in charge of guarding outside heard the shouts and rushed in one after another, looking at the fierce Russian soldiers.

Many of the workers had frightened looks on their faces, and the Russians walked to the center of the crowd nonchalantly, and also saw Li Jinao's body, they kicked it, and then dragged it out like a dead dog.

"You yellow-skinned monkeys, you all treat me honestly, if you want to make trouble, this is your fate." The Russians led by the Russians wantonly intimidated everyone.

At this moment a young worker burst out and pressed the Russian man to the ground, holding a pair of scissors in his hand, and when the Russian fell, he plunged the scissors into the Russian neck.

Don't look at this worker looks thin and unbearable, but the long-term labor, so that his hand strength is very amazing, after inserting it, immediately blood rushed out, one or two feet high, the Russian big man ran hands and feet, desperately tossing, but it was too late, the scissors were deeply embedded in the neck, pierced into the cervical vertebrae, this guy's struggle became weaker and weaker.

When the other Russians saw that the situation was not good, they wanted to shoot with guns, and at this time the other workers were all stimulated by blood, and they did not want to live in such a cowardly way anymore, so they took all the tools at their disposal and attacked the Russian soldiers, even if they had no tools, they still had fists and teeth.

The five or six Russian soldiers were all overwhelmed by the angry workers, and soon they were all beaten into a pile of rotten flesh, countless times more miserable than Li Jinao's corpse.

By this time, these workers had finally regained a shred of their senses, they had killed the Russian soldiers, would the Russians let them go!

The young worker who was the first to do it stood up at this time: "Brothers, let's not wait here for death, hurry up and rush out, maybe there is still a way to live!" ”

With his leadership, all the workers panicked and fled frantically, and just as they rushed out of the factory gate, the Russian soldiers in charge of patrolling also rushed over, and the Chinese workers were now unarmed and could only flee desperately.

The Russians, knowing that the situation was not good, opened fire on the workers, and more and more of the workers were hit, the blood stained the ground red, and the gunfire shook the whole of Harbin.

The workers ran out of the factory desperately, and the Russians behind them chased desperately, and just turned a street, the road in front of them suddenly narrowed a lot, and the workers' ranks were suddenly congested.

The Russian soldiers showed a bloodthirsty look, they pointed their guns at these workers, and wanted to kill these workers, at this moment, in a house next to the road, suddenly poked out a black muzzle, followed by a tongue of fire, the pursuing Russian soldiers were caught off guard, and they were all swept by machine guns.

The heavy machine guns had the power to tear everything apart, and the workers at first thought that they were going to suffer, but they didn't know that the bullets they had been waiting for had not fallen on them, and some of them had the courage to look back and see the corpses of Russians lying on the ground.

Dozens of Chinese soldiers rushed out of the roadside buildings, and it was they who killed all the Russians, and these workers were very excited, and over the years, the Russians had run rampant everywhere and oppressed the Chinese to the extreme, but at such times, they had never seen Chinese troops.

Even if some officials occasionally come forward, they only make a few painless protests, which are useless, and the Russians are still unscrupulous, and even intensified. But today, the Chinese army stood up for them and unceremoniously killed all these Russians, so they couldn't help but be shocked.

It was Feng Yongshuang who was in charge of commanding the army in front of him, Zhang Tinglan had already put the Feng army into a combat state, ready to attack at any time, and at the same time selected a large number of elite soldiers to secretly approach the main strongholds, including post offices, stations, factories, arsenals and other places. As long as the two sides go to war, the Feng army will take these key positions in their hands as soon as possible.

And the Harbin General Factory is the top priority, so Zhang Tinglan personally assigned Feng Yongshuang to bring people over, they have been preparing here for a while, and they are anxiously waiting for the battle order.

But things are often unexpected, these workers actually rioted, rushed out of the factory, and there were a large number of Russian soldiers chasing after them, in the face of this sudden situation, Feng Yongshuang was also surprised.

Seeing more and more workers being killed, as a soldier, he really couldn't stand idly by, and Feng Yongshuang also smelled the fighters in it, so he simply started the battle to recover the Middle Road.

Therefore, on the one hand, he ordered the killing of all the pursuing Russian soldiers, and on the other hand, he sent a telegram to Zhang Tinglan, demanding that the reconquest battle be in full swing, and the other troops should also take action.

"Don't be afraid, big guy, we were ordered to come to recover the Middle East Road, and now we are going to attack the factory in front of us, I hope everyone can stand up and help us guide the way and control the factory as quickly as possible!"

"Sir, are you here to clean up the Russians?"

"That's right, I'm here to teach them a lesson, these brutes are on our territory, the days of rampant and domineering are over, and you don't have to look at their faces in the future!"

The young man who questioned him was the one who took the lead in killing the Russian soldiers, and as soon as he heard that the Feng army was going to recover the Middle East Road and deal with those Russians, tears immediately flashed in his eyes.

"Brother Li, don't go far, just watch from the sky, the retribution of these Russian beasts is coming!" He turned his head and called several young and strong workers over.

"Sir, we've been working in it for a year or two, we know the situation best, and we're willing to show the way!"

Feng Yongshuang nodded: "Okay, you guys will act together, and the other workers will all leave as soon as possible, so as not to be injured by mistake!" ”

After the explanation, Feng Yongshuang and the others quickly rushed towards the factory gate, at this time the Russians were already in a mess, the originally docile Chinese workers suddenly rioted, so that they could not accept, these people were concentrating a large force, wanting to go to pursue.

At this time, suddenly there was a burst of gunfire, the entire factory was enveloped, and the Russians, who had not yet completed their assembly, were met head-on, and the Feng army had quickly broken through the gate, and more and more corpses fell to the ground. (To be continued......)
