271 Mysterious prisoners of war

Under the support of the belief in revenge, the Russian army was running in the rain, and many people no longer had raincoats, because the raincoats were too troublesome to wear on their bodies, and they couldn't run fast at all, so they took them off and let the torrential rain wet their bodies.

I finally heard the sound of water, and I can finally find Lin Yuan to take revenge!

When they reached the water's edge, they were surprised to find that the river bridge was gone! Moreover, the surface of the river is twice as wide as before, and the turbulent river water rolls up the white Lang, like running downstream.

The fire of revenge in the hearts of the Russian army was half extinguished at once, they looked at the river, and they didn't know what to do, such a rapid current, they could only be swept away! At this moment, more than a dozen boats sailed upstream, led by the Russian white, blue, and red tricolor flags, and the Russian soldiers on the shore immediately cheered: "That's our ship." They immediately gathered around in the direction of the ship, but when they got closer, they saw that something was wrong with the people on board.

The people above don't have the same golden hair and blue eyes as them, their eyes and hair are terrifyingly black, and on this battlefield, that color represents death!

It turned out that when Lin Yuan started the ambush battle, he already knew that the upper reaches of the Songhua River had rained heavily, causing the river to swell, and the river bridge had fallen into disrepair and had been swallowed up by the raging river, so he ordered Chen Fei and them to end the ambush and prepare to ambush the Russians by the river.

So he let the captured gunboats serve as the lead of the fleet, and found fifteen steam-powered boats, all of which were equipped with Grimm guns or Maxim machine guns, where the river was so turbulent that it was extremely difficult for the boats powered by human oars to move in them, but the steam-powered ships were able to navigate them with ease.

As for the flag of the Russians, it was also Lin Yuan's strategy, it was done to paralyze the Russians, the gunboats and steam ships opened fire on the Russian soldiers on the shore, and the 47mm guns on the gunboats were loaded with high-explosive grenades, and the distance was close, and when the grenades flew and killed several people, and when it exploded in the crowd, more people died.

The courage that the Russian soldiers had accumulated in the valley had not yet dissipated, and instead of dodging the shells, they lay down on the spot, aimed at the flotilla and began to shoot, and some even rushed into the river and wanted to swim to the boat, but as soon as they entered the water, they were swept away by the rapids.

The bullet hit the guard, "ping pong" sounded, and it could not hurt the gunner at all, and the rapid-fire gun turned the direction unhurriedly and shot at the place where the Russian soldier was lying down, although the bullet fired by the Mosin Nagant rifle was still lethal two thousand meters away, but the mist formed by the heavy rain added a thick layer of gauze between heaven and earth, let alone two thousand meters, even two hundred meters away to see people are blurry.

Therefore, the Russian soldiers were less than 100 meters away from the river to shoot at the boat, this distance, so that the machine guns on the boat were very comfortable, in the ears of the Russian soldiers, the continuous sound of the Makqin machine gun did not stop, the people around them died one after another, this fear bit by bit eroded the accumulated courage, and finally, the defeat happened.

The Russian soldiers began to retreat behind, and at this time the cavalry behind just rushed up, laughing at the cowardice of the infantry, while brandishing their sabers, they rushed towards the boats in the river, but the river was so deep and rapid that they could not rush through at all, and after dropping dozens of corpses, they also fell backwards.

The Russian army gathered the remnants and retreated in the direction of Qiqihar, retreating 20 kilometers before the shock calmed down.

The defenders in the city did not know the news of the failure of the reinforcements, so Lin Yuan asked people to shout under the city wall, it doesn't matter if they can't speak Russian, Lin Yuan wrote down the Russian in Chinese, and asked the shouting soldiers to shout on the city wall, and the Russian soldiers on the city wall saw several Qing soldiers holding microphones, riding horses and running to the city wall to speak Russian, they all felt interesting, like watching a play, calling friends and enjoying the wonders together.

When they heard what they meant, no one laughed, and the officers came out to refute the rumors, saying that the reinforcements were on the way, but the soldiers were not stupid, they counted the days, and felt that the reinforcements had climbed even if they had climbed, and for a time the people in the city were panicking.

On May 25, Lin Yuan brought Chen Fei over and said with a smile: "What have you been busy with lately?" I don't see you. ”

Chen Fei said: "What else can you be busy with, of course it is training, how can I say that I am also the nominal leader of the First Brigade." ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "But I heard that you have been very idle recently, so let's give you a task." ”

Chen Fei hurriedly asked, "What is it?" Do you want me to sneak into the city? ”

Lin Yuan said solemnly: "This task is much more difficult than sneaking into the city!" I'm worried about whether you can do it. ”

Chen Fei smiled disdainfully and said, "There are still tasks that I can't do!" ”

Lin Yuan said with a smile: "I want you to teach those soldiers who have a loud voice and specialize in shouting to sing!" ”

Chen Fei's confident expression suddenly decreased a lot, and he said helplessly: "What kind of task is this!" I can't do it, you can find someone else. ”

Lin Yuan smiled: "You don't do it? I'll go talk to Gao Yu next time, and by the way, tell me about your love for her! ”

Chen Fei gave a thumbs up and said, "Okay, you're amazing, I'll teach them to sing, but what song do I want to teach them to sing?" ”

Lin Yuan said: "You learn a few Russian folk songs, you have to have a deep sense of homesickness, and you can teach them again after you learn it." ”

Chen Fei nodded and said, "I understand, this is embattled, I'll do it." After three days, Chen Fei really taught more than a dozen soldiers, so they surrounded the city wall every day, singing a resentful homesick tune, and the mood of the Russian soldiers in the city became even more disturbed. As soon as Chen Fei left, a herald came in and sent an urgent telegram, saying that it was sent by the Qing court, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "This is strange, I have been here for so long and the Qing court has never sent me a telegram, why did you give me one now?" ”

Lin Yuan took it and looked at it, and it turned out that the telegram read: "The International Red Cross Investigation Team will inspect the prisoner of war camps in Qing and is expected to arrive at you in early June. ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "At this time, the Red Cross Society has indeed been established, but its influence is not great, how can it have the ability to go to the battlefield to investigate?" It's weird. ”

Lin Yuan thought about it for a while, and felt that this matter was definitely not that simple, this investigation team must have another purpose when it came, what it was specifically, it was not clear now, he should go to the prisoner of war camp to go around, and there would be no abuse of prisoners.

Lin Yuan called a herald and went to the prisoner of war camp, prisoners of war have always been a very difficult problem on the battlefield, killing and abusing prisoners have always been criticized, so the commander often prohibits such things, but prisoners of war also have to eat, for many troops with insufficient food supply, it is a problem to eat by themselves, how can there be anything for prisoners of war to eat, so the commander also acquiesced to the existence of the killing of prisoners.

Under Lin Yuan's direct leadership and control, the railway was built very quickly, and for the first time, the Chinese troops in the northeast battlefield did not have to worry about what to eat, so they also had surplus food for the prisoners of war, and also built prisoner of war camps, the so-called prisoner of war camps, which were fenced off with barbed wire, and then hired local craftsmen to build dozens of large houses out of adobe.

It was a battalion commander of the Dingwu Army who managed the prisoner of war camp, and when he saw Lin Yuan, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "You can count it, we have a group of mysterious prisoners of war, and we plan to report it to you." ”
