Chapter 818: Sukabule
This virtue, still a chicken feather fight?
On the surface, the military reform of Tsarist Russia was very shocking.
But from the inside, the domestic infrastructure is a mess, and the railway has been laid to the west, but it is too single, for example, there is almost no railway to the south except for Manchuria.
The condition of the roads seems to have improved considerably, but the roads to the south are almost non-existent.
They wanted to establish a general staff, but it overlapped with similar departments, and instead of cooperating, the two sides were holding each other back, just because the old departments had not been abolished.
Internal factional strife is rampant, corruption is rampant, and officers' decision-making, sharing of responsibilities, and even promotions rely on personal whims.
I just came up with an idea and implemented it.
There are huge flaws in the structure of the defense industry, and even today they are not really able to meet the needs of soldiers' equipment.
Even after 7 years, the Tula military factory was able to produce only 350 machine guns per month.
For example, Berensky and his adjutants, as soon as their heads moved, came up with the idea of burrowing into the Western Ditch.
Huo Liao's eyebrows were burned, and he thought about asking for help.
When he couldn't ask for help, he patted his head - it fell.
In the past, Zhao Chuanxin was beaten to death, and the Russian soldiers saw that this person had no intention of stopping at all, could they not be afraid? So he resisted to the death.
But this time it's different, they have time to breathe, their heads to think.
For the first time, Zhao Chuanxin discovered that Tsarist Russia turned out to be a fat man.
These people walked in front of them without turning back, and no one ran.
Zhao Chuanxin collected the guns and ammunition on the ground, ran to the top of the mountain to hide, and went to bring the six cannons up the mountain one by one.
After doing this, when I came back, I saw that the infantry had not run, and the cavalry leading the horses had not moved.
As if he had suddenly discovered a new world, Zhao Chuanxin's heart was bright.
Zhao Chuanxin accompanied them from the morning to the dark and walked to the Dongqing Railway's Wudu River Station.
It was under the jurisdiction of Sauron's left flank, because the site was too small and close to Hailar, and the Russians did not have a garrison.
The local Saurons did not panic when they saw the Russian army of hundreds of people coming with their heads bowed.
Because in recent days there has always been a large number of Russian troops crossing the border.
It's just that this team looks a little sad.
Zhao Chuanxin crossed the crowd and came out: "I am Zhao Chuanxin, the prefect of Yubin Prefecture, you send someone to find the chief manager Badang'a and ask him to bring someone to take care of the prisoners." Tonight I will camp here, and I will borrow some grain and grass, and bring these horses to Badam'a. β
Zhao Chuanxin's name is very loud among the Hailar Five-Winged Banner people.
When those Saurons saw that Zhao Chuanxin had captured hundreds of people, they were all shocked and inexplicable.
Haven't heard of it.
At night, bonfires are lit everywhere and pots are buried.
Zhao Chuanxin walked through the crowd with an interpreter, asking a few words from time to time.
"Where's home? How many people? β
"My house is in Ilir, by a wide river, and my wife has tuberculosis and died, and even the baby in her belly has died, and I am the only one."
"It's miserable."
"Yes, my lord, I used to grow wheat by the river, and although I am not rich, I can live a decent life. Later, when the conscripts recruited me into the army, I heard that many of the officers were promoted by ordinary soldiers, and I wanted to try my luck, but I didn't expect to build a house in Chita for three years. Later, when I heard that the army was going to change, I was transferred to Vladivostok, and after several transfers, I went to Zha-Lantun ......"
Zhao Chuanxin listened quietly and asked him: "Do you want to be promoted to an officer or do you want to farm in the future?" β
"My lord, I used to want to be an officer, but now I want to farm. Because I don't have the money to bribe my superiors. β
Zhao Chuanxin said: "If you are given a chance to work in the mine, or go to farming, and earn enough money to support your family, are you willing?" β
"I do." The man said without hesitation.
"What if not on the banks of the river in Ilil? Like, on Hailar's side? β
"Then I'd do too."
"And what if it's in Abagaitui or Zabaikalsk?"
"Everything."
The main one is casual.
Zhao Chuanxin interspersed with questions.
It gradually aroused the emotions of many people.
When someone unconsciously vomited bitterness, but Zhao Chuanxin was not impatient at all, and did not treat them like cattle like the nobles of Tsarist Russia, many people couldn't help but complain.
"Our food is terrible."
"The money paid every month is not even enough for the army."
"My wife and children are dying of hunger, and I told the officer that he said to give him money to help me get promoted, but where did I get the money?"
"One day I walked with my head down, and I didn't see a captain passing by, and as a result, my nose was crooked, and I have been crooked for several years......"
"I was in the 100-man team before, and the officer corporally punished me, saying that I was not pleasing to the eye and told me to keep running, and I was tired and fainted......"
Political Commissar Zhao listened all the way like this, and was finally surrounded by Russian soldiers, and the dense translator was too late to translate.
Zhao Chuanxin simply sat by the fire and listened to their excited talk.
In fact, I can't understand anything.
He was now like a priest who listens to the confession of the faithful.
When everyone said enough, the mood gradually subsided.
Zhao Chuanxin took out the guitar.
Although Tsarist Russia is also decadent and dark, Tsarist Russia's attainments and pursuit of modern art are among the best in the world, such as Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake" in the last century is still a classic in the 21st century.
Seeing Zhao Chuanxin take out the instrument, everyone seemed to understand something, and the voice disappeared abruptly.
The scorching dry wood, the warm light of the fire flickered on one side of Zhao Chuanxin's face.
The shape of the interweaving of fire and shadow is like Lake Baikal, the snow-capped Caucasus Mountains, and the most miraculous image of the Virgin of Kazan Cathedral.
Zhao Chuanxin's thick fingers flicked flexibly.
"When the train pulls into this strange city, it's neon that I've never seen before. When I opened the letter you sent me at parting, I suddenly felt a great sense of longing. In the city where the snow does not night in winter, I hear people cheering and people crying......"
Zhao Chuanxin's voice is very unique, he can turn up the volume of the mid-bass, which is the strong effect of the vocal cords.
Originally, he could only sing, until he met Li Shutong. It is said that talent, but the only person worthy of the word "talent" in modern times may only be Uncle Li.
Therefore, Zhao Chuanxin has mastered the rhythm, not only can play the guitar and a little piano, but also can sing on the spot, and the trills and other skills that are not in vogue at this time add a few different emotional colors to the song.
At first, the translator also helped explain the lyrics, but then he was violently pushed by the Russian soldiers to shut him up, and everyone was able to listen to the song quietly.
When the finger plays the last note, the strings murmur.
The Russian soldiers applauded feverishly.
They also love romance, but are never allowed to listen to opera.
Even if they are wandering artists, they only wander around the big cities, who goes to the poor countryside?
This "butcher of the Far East", as they called it, not only listened to their complaints, but even played songs for them around the campfire.
"It's so beautiful."
"I've never heard such a beautiful song when I'm so big."
"Don't pretend, you've heard any songs before."
"Forehead ......"
Is this really the butcher?
Zhao Chuanxin felt that there seemed to be an easier way to disintegrate the enemy than guns.
What will Nicholas II do?
He is cruel, and Zhao Chuanxin is also cruel. But Zhao Chuanxin knows what he can do, he can't do.
The advantage is in me.
"Sing one more, sing one more ......"
Everyone made a commotion, as if it was not a relationship between friend or foe.
Is Zhao Chuanxin still afraid of this?
The melodious sound of the piano: "Life is old there,older than the trees...... To the place where I belongοΌLake BaikalοΌMβ¦β¦β
Zhao Chuanxin is accustomed to magic changes, and directly changed West Virginia to Lake Baikal.
Don't think that Lake Baikal has always belonged to Tsarist Russia, it is said that the North Sea, where Su Wu shepherded sheep, is Lake Baikal.
Their little people couldn't rule that much territory before.
Even now, it is actually very reluctant, so Zhao Chuanxin kindly wants to help them govern.
The forced Nicholas II couldn't manage it at all, and he was always thinking about aggression.
After singing two songs, the Russian soldiers were extremely excited.
wanted Zhao Chuanxin to continue singing, but Zhao Chuanxin handed over the guitar to the translator.
The translator's face turned red and he said shyly, "I can't sing." β
"A few blind plays, a few blind singing. I'm going to get some meat outside and come back and grill it. β
So saying, he got up and went into the woods to the north.
Berensky waited for Zhao Chuanxin to leave for a while, and then sneakily approached the pretending interpreter and asked him, "Well, where did he go?" β
It wasn't until he saw Berensky, a major, that the interpreter remembered the identities of both sides.
He coughed: "Major, he said to go get some meat and come back and roast it." β
Berensky looked left and right and whispered to the people around him, "Are you really not going to run away?" β
He was an officer, and the officer was well paid and had a high status in the Tsarist army.
Naturally, he was not willing to be a prisoner.
But as soon as he finished speaking, the people around him lowered their heads one after another.
Berensky was furious and raised his hand to slap the nearest soldier: "You've been apostatous in less than a day!" β
The soldier's head hung lower, but a hint of hatred flashed in his eyes.
No contrast, no harm.
Zhao Chuanxin is also a soldier, a cute soldier like a son, listening to complaints and singing.
In the case of Tsarist Russian officers like Berensky, it was the opposite.
No one spoke, and there was an eerie silence, save for the beeping of the fires.
Berensky gasped.
Sukabule, what's wrong with these people?
The adjutant tugged at the placket of his shirt and said in a mosquito voice, "Leave them alone, let's run." β
Berensky saw that he couldn't move his subordinates, so he had to get up and look around, and after not seeing Zhao Chuanxin's figure, he hesitated, got up and ran away with his adjutant.
Not all of them were indifferent, and there were also some low-level officers who ran with the two.
It's just that the horses were taken away by Zhao Chuanxin, and they could only go to Hailar on their legs.
As soon as Berensky left, the crowd became lively again.
There were also people who fought because they grabbed a piece of cake, and many people used their strength to pull the two people with blue noses and swollen faces, and they still scolded themselves, which shows the temper of the Russian soldiers.
Zhao Chuanxin stepped on the ethereal traveler up the mountain and let the smart gyroscope look for traces of wild boars.
The smell of wild boar is very strong and lingers for a long time.
Moreover, wild boars have the characteristic of excreting at a fixed point in the center of the territory, and the feces can be piled up to one meter high, and the smell is terrible.
However, they also like to act in groups, often five or six heads.
The smart gyroscope is very sensitive to all kinds of biological signals, and Zhao Chuanxin easily found a nest.
Wild boars have average eyesight, but a keen sense of smell and hearing.
As soon as Zhao Chuanxin approached, the head pig of the wild boar noticed it, turned over and got up, and rushed towards Zhao Chuanxin.
Zhao Chuanxin leaned against a big tree and waited quietly for the wild boar to approach.
When it approached, Zhao Chuanxin suddenly circled behind the big tree.
The wild boar is not stupid either, it tilts its head and hits the tree with its shoulder blades to prevent its fangs from breaking.
It twitched its nose, ready to circulate the tree to drive away the intruders.
But he didn't think that Zhao Chuanxin was waiting for it behind the tree, the elf carving knife was swung down, and the pig's head fell to the ground.
Zhao Chuanxin stepped on the ethereal traveler and rushed straight towards another wild boar.
The head of the boar was killed, and he didn't even scream.
The rest of the wild boars were uneasy, and Zhao Chuanxin was fast, his hand was up and down, and he cut two pigs' heads in a row.
The wild boars were left scattered in a hurry.
At night, you may not be able to see the road clearly, but the momentum of running is amazing, and the grass and trees are crooked.
Zhao Chuanxin didn't chase it, and when the blood of the three pigs was almost gone, he disemboweled, picked all the internal organs, and brought the pork back into the space.
When he returned to the camp, there was a clamor in the camp.
Rumble......
Zhao Chuanxin unloaded, put three heads and six pork rows on the ground, and asked, "What's wrong?" β
The translator swallowed: "That, Berensky ran away with some people. β
Everyone didn't dare to come out at this time.
Russians live roughly, have no heart and lungs, have today and no tomorrow, and basically die until they are afraid.
They thought that Zhao Chuanxin, like the Russian military officers, would lash out because they did not supervise each other, and then physically punish and beat the soldiers.
But Zhao Chuanxin just smiled: "You washed the meat, divided it and roasted it." I'll go back as soon as I go. β
It was already dark, and everyone didn't see how Zhao Chuanxin left, but disappeared into the darkness in the blink of an eye.
"Ah......h
In a moment, there was a scream from a distance.
The first sound was just a signal, and then the screams continued.
The faces of the Russian soldiers turned pale.
Can't you run away from this?
Some wanted to run, but were frightened because they were timid.
Secretly rejoicing, thanks to his own wisdom.
It didn't take ten minutes before and after, and Zhao Chuanxin turned around.
He dropped something and rolled on the ground, and threw a bunch of ears at him.
"Count them, they're all left ears, and see if you can match the number of people."
The translator saw that the head belonged to Berensky, and Berensky was blind to death. He trembled and counted the ears of the people, one not many, and one not many.
Hiss......
"Yes, yes."
The crowd was in an uproar.
This black light blinded the fire, and none of them escaped.
Supposedly, you can't hide from the grass and woods if you just dig into them? Or are these people stupid enough to just know how to run on the road?
Zhao Chuanxin launched the old god crucible brand, and all the heads and ears were burned and turned into ashes.
This hand is to stunned everyone again.
"Black, Black Magic......"
"What kind of magic is black, superstition!" Zhao Chuanxin raised his leg and crushed the skeleton on the ground with one kick, and the ashes floated into the bonfire.
Translation: "......"
Zhao Chuanxin took them to eat meat.
It didn't take long to have fun again.
But no one can forget what happened just now.
As long as you don't run, everyone is fine.
Whoever runs dies.
Zhao Chuanxin used his actions to tell them that he was not a good person.
Some of them are roasted, and some of them are boiled in pots.
It's better to have meat to eat than nothing, and we'll talk about tomorrow tomorrow.
Zhao Chuanxin didn't eat, he said to the translator: "You eat, I'll go out for a spin." β
There is a saying that when elephants were young, they were tied to wooden poles and could not break free. In this way, it was bolted until it was large, and it was clear that the elephant could easily break free with its strength, but the small wooden pole could still tie it.
Zhao Chuanxin now erects a wooden pole for them.
In the solemn night, Zhao Chuanxin disappeared again.
He went to the mountains and inspected a few places where weapons and artillery were hidden, there were too many things to fit in the secret realm.
Everything was scattered on the hills on both sides of the way, mostly covered with rocks, and a few were stored in the open air.
The most important thing is that the railroad tracks cannot be discovered by the Russian soldiers.
After checking around, it took nearly an hour for Zhao Chuanxin to come back.
The wild boar has not been eaten yet, the atmosphere is as usual, and the translator is not weak.
Zhao Chuanxin was stained with some moisture and looked wet.
He said: "It's raining at the Ba-Lin station, and it is estimated that tomorrow the clouds will drift over, so we have to hurry up." β
The translator was stunned when he heard this, and counted with his fingers, it was 300 miles from here to Bahrain, 600 miles back and forth, and Zhao Chuanxin walked for a maximum of one hour.
If it's true, it's unbelievable; If it is fake, the water vapor on Zhao Chuanxin's body is real, unless he jumps into the river to act.
They all think that Zhao Chuanxin knows black magic, and they think it's true.
Zhao Chuanxin traveled and returned several times, and the invisible wooden pole that could tie people's hearts became stronger and stronger.
Eventually, he even went back to sleep in a mountainside hut by the Ergun River.
I used to hear people say that light can wake people up to sleep. Zhao Chuanxin didn't think so, even if he didn't pull the curtains, he would still be on the day.
But this year he believed.
Even if the weather is bad and the sun doesn't show up, as long as the gray morning light shines into the house through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the slight light blinds his eyelids, he can open his eyes as soon as possible, which is more effective than an alarm clock.
The birds in the forest began to make noise, and they did not chirp as loudly as they did in spring.
In the house, you can hear the sound of them pecking at the seeds.
Zhao Chuanxin brushed his teeth and washed his face, dressed and went out.
The Russian soldiers did not run.
They get up early and have a hot meal.
Three wild boars, the largest one is estimated to be 300 catties, and the two smaller ones are 200 catties.
Remove the head and hooves to get the goods, and everyone here can't get a pound of meat.
In this way, I ate two meals.
It can be seen that these people do not eat well on weekdays.
Seeing Zhao Chuanxin, the translator breathed a sigh of relief.
He couldn't put into account that complicated feeling.
Zhao Chuanxin felt that this seemed to be a special emotion in a state of great physical and psychological stress.
The threat of death contrasts dramatically with Zhao's approachability.
And this emotion spreads and becomes a group mood.
Zhao Chuanxin thought it was very interesting, he was doing a large-scale psychological experiment with hundreds of people at this time, and maybe tens of thousands of people in the future.
"Let's go, the dark clouds over there are about to drift to us, if you don't want to be caught in the rain, hurry up."
This kind of cold rain, at most, this one, I am afraid that winter will come as scheduled.
Zhao Chuanxin went west, and Badanga led people to the east to greet him.
Zhao Chuanxin asked the interpreter to shout and led the team to shout slogans.
"War is followed by peace."
"War is not the goal, living is the goal."
"We're not grey animals."
"I don't cringe or scream, I just want to be respected."
Zhao Chuanxin slyly adapted some movie lines and shouted slogans in line with Russian pronunciation habits.
The slogan is by no means a forcible attempt to make them betray the motherland, but emphasizes two points: first, war can achieve peaceful goals, and second, dignity.
The first point is like the grass gray snake line of writing, Zhao Chuanxin won this war, that is the peace brought by Zhao Chuanxin, and vice versa, everything depends on the result.
When the war is over, everything will be clear.
The second point implies that the Russian soldiers are living with no dignity in Tsarist Russia, but Zhao Chuanxin does not say it clearly. If they want to fight for dignity, they can only rely on him to pass on his salary.
Zhao Chuanxin asked the interpreter to shout, and after they repeatedly shouted a few slogans, and along the way, many people shouted hoarsely, but they gradually shouted from uneven to fluent.
Half of the slogan should be in the present, and half of the slogan should be in the future.
So when Badam came in the dust, he heard the neat slogan and couldn't straighten it out.
The interpreter saw a group of people coming, dressed in cotton coats, with gray axe markings on their sleeves and arms, carrying their Tsarist water beads, and the officers with Nagant wheels on their waists, and Cossack cavalry swords.
But the faces and uniforms indicate that they are not Russian soldiers.
"Lord Prefect."
"Well, these are my captives, and you take them to the E-Lut Ministry." Then Zhao Chuanxin lowered his voice: "So, so, so, so, ......"
Badama was astonished: "Is that really the case?" β
Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth and smiled: "Do you think I'm joking?" I want you to do it exactly right. In addition, I borrowed some grain and grass from your department's station on the river, and you paid for the grain and grass to be returned to the people, and then went to the accounting office of the province to reimburse them. β
"And what happens to the food they consume after that?"
"Hehe, provided by Maozi, I forgot that we still have several granaries, looking for someone to dig stones for grain."
Badang'a was stunned, could it be that Zhao Chuanxin had already planned for today's situation?
That's a little scary.
Thanks to the brothers for the tip, so I will be really proud, really.
