Chapter Thirty-Nine: Ushering In
At the same time as these works were carried out, the cooperation between Yang Xiaolin and the Russians was also on the right track, and when the gifts and gains of both sides were beyond the value of the work, the unpleasant things in the past would be slowly diluted.
Lao Maozi even has an intention to support Yang Xiaolin to build a military factory, which can help them produce bullets. Because they had already begun mass production of semi-automatic rifles, and the first batch of rifles were equipped with a regiment of troops as shiyan products, the Russian GIs were very satisfied with the use, but the Russian logistics department found a very serious problem, that is, the ammunition consumption of semi-automatic rifles was too large!
Even the powerful war machine of the Russians cannot guarantee that the hundreds of thousands of troops in the northeast will be equipped with a hand. They roughly calculated that according to the current production conditions, if the millions of Russian troops were all equipped with this rifle, it would mean that all the arsenals on Shijie would have to produce bullets at full capacity before they could be used by the Russians.
The Russians are now working on improving the machine, hoping to increase production. At present, this rifle can only be used in a small number of elite units and used in critical places. Even a small number of troops need to be supported by a large processing plant that can produce bullets.
The problem is that the price of bullets is quite low, and it is too expensive to get a few trains to transport them from Russia for such a worthless thing. The Russians are not rich now, and it is one to save one.
So they wanted to find Zaitao to specialize in the production of bullets for them, and Zaitao had an arsenal in Mukden, which was not bad in scale. But Lafayette has already said that the Qing Dynasty does not dare to interfere in the affairs between foreign adults. The Japanese would be unhappy about helping the Russians produce bullets, so Zaitao refused the Russians' request.
In desperation, Lanniko told Yang Xiaolin about this matter, and Yang Xiaolin immediately stopped this job, as long as the Russians sent out technicians, they bought their equipment by themselves, and the processing and production were wrapped up in him. The Russians can just pay for the bullets they produce themselves, and the price will definitely not be too expensive. Although Yang Dagui likes to rob, he never takes advantage of the fire to rob.
This the Russians believe. Just like the explosive bag, the Russians calculated the cost, an explosive package cost about 70 rubles, counting the manual fee, Yang Xiaolin collected 110 rubles, which is really not too expensive, and Yang Dagui is very fair in business.
However, the explosives package is different from the arsenal, the explosives package is the original Yang Dagui, the Russians and Yang Dagui temporary ceasefire is acceptable, and the development of some necessary cooperation can also be understood. But helping Yang Xiaolin build an arsenal seems to be a little unreliable.
The Russians are still hesitating, on the one hand, they don't want to cooperate with Yang Xiaolin, and on the other hand, they let them spend their own money to build an arsenal in the northeast for this war, and they feel panicked.
In the midst of the hesitation of the Russians, in May, the troops of the mountain were restored, and with the expansion of the territory of the troops, the ranks gradually grew to 6,000 men. This is still Yang Xiaolin controlling the development of the troops, and now it is not an exaggeration to describe him with the words of the Quartet, and the bandits on the small hill have basically come over.
After the Russians and the Manchus relaxed their vigilance on Yulu Mountain, those men in the pass also poured in, and the source of troops was not a problem for Yang Xiaolin now. Traffic has basically fully recovered, and the Northeast at this time is also a vibrant scene of spring flowers.
Yang Xiaolin knew that spring was coming.
On May 7, two cars with Japanese flags stopped in Houma Town, south of Fushun, which caused a sensation in the small poor countryside, and the villagers who had never seen the world poked their heads out of the house one by one, and a group of children immediately ran over, looking at the car with some fear and curiosity. …,
Naokami Matsubara stepped down from the passenger seat of the first car, lowered the truck's baffle at the back, and lifted the thick curtain: "Everyone, we have arrived at the place." ”
The first to jump out of the car was a young man with long hair in a shawl, he was Chen Tianhua, after getting off the truck, his eyes swept around, and suddenly from the dim inside the car to a bright, which may make his eyes a little uncomfortable, Chen Tianhua raised his hand to his brow to block the sun.
A majestic wind blew, and although it was already May weather, he still felt the cold air in the northeast, and slapped a palm behind him: "Xingtai, have you arrived at the place?" ”
The person who filmed him was Zou Rong, there were some obvious differences in the figures of the two people, Zou Rong looked more delicate, like a small student. And Chen Tianhua looks very powerful, and in the 21st century, he is definitely a man.
Chen Tianhua went directly to North Korea from Japan, and then came from North Korea. There is one thing that Sun Wen did not tell Yang Xiaolin, that is, the last time they met, Sun Wen said that there was about to be an uprising in the south, which was instigated by Chen Tianhua and Huang Xing.
The Jihuahaode affair was postponed indefinitely because of the Japanese reneging on their promises, and then was discovered by the Manchus, and Chen Tianhua is now one of the most wanted criminals of the Manchus.
Chen Tianhua turned his head to look at the straight pine plain who brought them over: "Song Yuan Jun, did Yang beat the ghost and say that he picked us up here?" ”
Naogami Matsubara nodded: "Yes, he said he had already arranged it." ”
Zou Rong was a little cautious: "Weishenme doesn't have them?" Will there be any surprises? ”
The corner of Matsubara's mouth smiled: "No, now that his relationship with the Russians is easing, the Russians will not get along with him at this time." ”
The others also got out of the car, this group of people who came were all men, and there were already a few women who were also coming, but they considered that this trip to the Northeast was not safe, and it was very likely that they would need to fight with Yang Dagui with guns, and they were not too familiar with Yang Xiaolin, so they refused the women's request.
Just when everyone got out of the car, the mayor of Houma Town ran over with more than a dozen people with spears on their backs, the mayor was very fat, and he was in a hurry, and when he arrived in front of them, he was already out of breath: "How many ...... A few uncles...... Did you come back from overseas? ”
Naogami Matsubara glanced at the mayor and didn't answer him, "Who are you?" ”
The mayor looked at his Japanese kimono and bowed to him: "This must be Matsubara Taikun, right?" The villain Cui Zibo is the mayor of Houma Town, Yang Dangjia asked me to guard you here, I have been guarding you for two days, I finally waited for you here, come, go have a cup of tea with me first, I sent someone to find Yang Dangjia's people, don't be anxious. ”
Chen Tianhua and Zou Rong glanced at each other, a little incredulous. Although this mayor is not a good grade, he is also a sesame official of the Qing Dynasty, and Yang Xiaolin asked him to wait for him here? Did you make a mistake or did you hear it wrong.
Naokami Matsubara was not a little surprised.
During this period of time, Yang Xiaolin's development was very strong, and Japanese intelligence showed that Yang Dagui's attitude towards the Russo-Japanese War was quite obvious, and he wanted to take advantage of the consumption of materials by Japan and Russia in this war, and take advantage of his proximity to the water, so that his base area could develop.
This wishful thinking was well played, and little Japan could see it at a glance, and they believed that the Russians knew it too. But they couldn't say no. Because they really need Yang Dagui to provide them with convenience, at least they need to ensure that Yang Dagui will not be dragged away by the Russians.
The Japanese military department was very angry at Yang Xiaolin's double-faced behavior, and they had already decided that once Japan won this war, they would immediately attack Yang Xiaolin, there was nothing to talk about, and they would resolutely eliminate him! …,
The current Yang Dagui is proud of the spring breeze, let alone a town mayor, those county orders on his territory also have to act according to his eyes.
Let him be proud first.
Naokami Matsubara smiled and said to the mayor, "Where is Kobayashi-kun now?" ”
The mayor said, "I don't know, Yang is a busy man, but he said that as soon as you come, he will be there immediately." ”
Chen Tianhua didn't say anything more: "Okay, let's rest here first, after a few days in the car, everyone is tired." ”
The mayor had obviously already prepared, and the banquet, tea, and even the bedroom were all cleaned.
When Chen Tianhua and the others stayed, Yang Xiaolin was in Fushun, and he was going to send away another group of his guests, who were Russians.
The cooperation with the Russians was quite pleasant, but the arsenal had never been established, and Yang Xiaolin knew that the Russians must be preparing to clean themselves up in the future, so they were unwilling to strengthen themselves.
That is also a matter of the future, even if there is no such thing in the future, waiting for the Japanese or Russians to slow down, Yang Xiaolin did not expect them not to let him go. General Yang has now learned not to fantasize about peace, and the only way to keep these people from coming to fight him is to take advantage of the Russo-Japanese War to strengthen themselves and make them dare not come!
Now he very politely shook Colonel Lannico's hand and said, "Mr. Colonel, our peace talks this time are very pleasant, and if we have the opportunity, I hope we can meet each other." ”
Lannico smiled: "I'm also very happy, Yang Dagui, you are a bold person, many things don't like to go around the corner, which saves us a lot of time." Originally, I wanted to stay and accept your hospitality for a few more days, but to be honest, your conditions here are far worse than those in Beijing. Besides, the Japanese are coming, and I don't want to see them. Like you, I look forward to seeing you next time. ”
Yang Xiaolin bit the cigarette in his mouth and smiled. Lannico continued: "I hope you don't promise the Japanese too many conditions, especially the hill defense system, which should be a secret between us. ”
Yang Xiaolin nodded: "Don't worry, one daughter doesn't marry a second husband, I'm waiting for you to kill the Japanese in Lushun." Yes, and this young lady, Miss Domliksava, right? First of all, I shouldn't have shot you in the first place. ”
Domliksava had been in the mountains for so many days, and Yang Xiaolin also remembered where he had seen this woman. Now that he had spoken out, Domliksava was a little at a loss, and she was obviously much more immature than Lannico's sophisticated diplomacy, and there were occasions when she didn't know how to deal with it.
Her expression made Yang Xiaolin smile even happier, at this time a brother ran over and said a word in Yang Xiaolin's ear, Yang Xiaolin nodded, and then said to Lannico: "Colonel, further forward is Fushun, where is the territory of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, I will send someone to send you over, Zaitao will arrange someone to pick you up, I won't go." If I enter Fushun, I guess Zaitao won't let me out. ”
Lannico smiled and stretched out his hand again: "Haode, Yang beats ghosts, good luck." ”
Yang Xiaolin thanked him, and he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, with so many people around him, he just shouted: "Two poles!" Send me a guest! (Ask for a referral vote!) )
