Spring in Vladivostok does not come until the beginning of April. There are still some scattered ice fles floating on the sea, and although the weather has begun to warm, there is still a cold snap from the north from time to time, which makes the temperature drop suddenly.

A loud military song was heard in the distance, and a team of heavily armed troops entered Vladivostok. The soldiers carried a full set of equipment on their backs, weighing forty or fifty pounds, and although they were tired, they were in a very good mental state.

This winter, the Far Eastern Brigade conducted three long-distance training exercises in succession, two of which were carried out in windy and snowy weather. In the process of training, a series of tactical exercises with live ammunition were also carried out, and the food and lodging were all in the cold field, and the extreme cold and exhausting physical state were a huge test for all the soldiers.

Gao Jianguo and Li Ming, as well as all the officers and men of the War Department, also took part in the three arduous training exercises. The artillery battalion had just been formed, and the equipment was pulled out before it was familiar, and several horses pulling artillery were killed for this reason. But in the end, everyone survived these three hard trainings.

The soldiers sang loud military songs, marched neatly, and came to the playground of the teaching team with high spirits. Gao Jianguo and Li Ming stood beside them, looking at them with satisfaction.

Gao Jianguo said with a smile: "The Far Eastern Brigade is finally a little bit of a look, and now it's almost a few battles to see blood." By the way, why hasn't that kid come back yet, don't kidnap our mountain guerrilla battalion. ”

@李明摇头道: "He has been leading the special combat team and the mountain guerrilla battalion for more than two months. It seems that this kid is also ruthless, and he suffered a big loss in the old forest last time. This time, I really want to figure out the old forests around me. ”

Gao Jianguo smiled and said: "I'm still at ease with Song Tao, don't look at this kid who usually mixes around, but he can still grasp the general direction at critical moments." I'm worried about Lao Qiao now, this guy usually looks like a Maitreya Buddha, but he was born with a pirate plot in his bones, don't really have anything wrong.

This time, I was afraid that he would make trouble outside, so I gave them an order in the name of the Military Commission. But I regret it now, I should let you take Liu Baoguo and a few of his special combat team members with him, and bring a landing ship. Once you encounter something, you can protect yourself. ”

Li Ming also shook his head with a wry smile and said, "According to the plan." They will be back in Vladivostok this month. Anyway, we'll be back soon, and it's useless for us to be in a hurry. ”

After all the troops were completed, Gao Jianguo praised everyone's performance in this training and asked everyone to make persistent efforts. Keep up the good work. Finally, the dissolution was announced. The troops were on holiday for three days.

After the fighters cheered and disbanded. Gao Jianguo and Li Ming came to the Far Eastern Brigade Staff Headquarters in the courtyard of the teaching team, which is now also the location of the headquarters of the War Department. It was here that all the operational plans of the War Department were developed.

The conditions here are average, except for a few spacious wooden houses made up of carved flutes. Originally, it was to build a row of brick and concrete houses. But considering that the fighters of the Far Eastern Brigade lived in the woodcut flute, they dispelled this idea, after all, it is not good to specialize in the barracks.

They went into the cabin to unload their gear, and then went to the largest wooden house in the middle. The area here is not small, nearly 200 square meters. The walls around it were covered with maps of all kinds, and in the middle of the room were several large sand tables.

Next to it are rows of communication equipment, dozens of computers, and a huge projection screen. More than a dozen staff officers are arranging a huge sand table.

Li Ming walked to the sand table, turned back to Gao Jianguo and asked, "Old Gao, which region is this sand table?" ”

Gao Jianguo walked over and said with a smile: "This is Trudovoye and Artyom, what a good piece of land!" If we go to Dongjiang Town this year, I guess we can bring back at least tens of thousands of Liao people. Vladivostok may not be able to digest it here, and if you want to settle these Liao people, you must go north along the northern coastline and open up new settlements.

Several departments, including the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, and the Ministry of Communications, jointly formulated an Artem development plan this winter. They decided to connect Vladivostok and Artem in three years.

In fact, in modern society, the company already has this plan, but it is only a rough outline. And the time will not be put on the agenda until three years later, but now the situation has changed, so the project was launched earlier. The plan is still in the works, and they will report to the board in a few days. ”

Li Ming also shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If we can really get tens of thousands of Liao people from Dongjiang Town this year, we will be under great pressure." The food, clothing, housing and transportation of these tens of thousands of Liao people are enough for us to worry about our brains. The more than 20,000 acres of land on the southern shore of the Golden Horn alone cannot feed such a large number of people. If we hadn't come back this year from Japan and North Korea, we would have had to live a tight life before the autumn harvest.

I also support the company in starting this plan ahead of schedule, and this year it is expected that the company will develop Trudovoye first, which is flat and has abundant water. It is particularly suitable for the development of agricultural resources. By May, the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry should move into Trudovoye and develop the land there in advance. ”

Gao Jianguo nodded and said, "Their plan is to build a landing site in Trudovoye first. The equipment was then sent in boats, and then a large amount of arable land was leveled using machinery and agricultural machinery, and settlements were established there, and then the land was planted by the beginning of May. There is still more than a month, and the task is very heavy. ”

Li Ming nodded and said, "The last time we went to fight the Wuergu tribe, didn't we pass through there for a while, the terrain there is not bad, it is estimated that it should be no problem to plant corn and potatoes in a large area." Anyway, the units have not started yet, and the personnel and machinery are abundant. ”

Gao Jianguo said with a smile: "So I asked them to make the sand table there in advance, so as not to be caught off guard at that time." Just after Lao Qiao and the others come back, our military committee will also start to formulate a plan to advance north. It is necessary to set up a garrison battalion there, pull up the dozens of militia companies that have been newly trained, first set up defensive posts and migrant settlements, and when the new batch of immigrants arrives, they will be sent directly over. The idea of the Railways Department of the Ministry of Transport was to build a railway directly to Artyom. ”

Li Ming's eyes darkened, and he almost spurted out a mouthful of blood. He lay down next to the half-finished sand table and looked at it for a while. Only then did he say to Gao Jianguo: "Old Gao, it's not close to Vladivostok." Railroad group: This is! More than 40 kilometers of railway, how long does it take to lay it? How many rail sleepers are needed? I don't think this is reliable. ”

Gao Jianguo nodded and said: "It is more than forty kilometers away from Vladivostok, and the railway team has made a budget, which is planned according to the Maozi railway line of that year, and the railway materials such as rails and sleepers brought by the company from modern society are almost enough."

After a large number of Liao people from Dongjiang Town came, most of them couldn't use it for the time being, so they couldn't let them stay every day, so they simply went to repair the roadbed of the railway. It is not that Artyom will be repaired next year, but that it will be repaired to the landing site of Trudovoye first.

As long as we take three years to connect Vladivostok and Artem, then our company will have a foothold here. Artyom is a well-known mining area in modern society, and if it were to be developed, Far Eastern Company would not have to worry about coal resources for decades.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry is also preparing to use three years to develop farms and pastures on a large scale in Trudovoye and Artem, and if the development is successful, then even if hundreds of thousands of people come to Vladivostok, we will not have to worry about food. ”

Suddenly, a staff officer on duty at the communications office next to him hurriedly ran over and said to the two: "I just received a telegram from the Admiralty that the long-distance training fleet has entered the Sea of Japan through the Guò Tsushima Strait, and it is estimated that it will reach the Golden Horn in a few days. ”

Gao Jianguo and Li Ming glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of excitement in each other's eyes. Before they could speak, the staff officer continued: "The fleet has twenty-six sailboats, loaded with a large number of supplies, and I hope we will be ready to receive them." ”

The staff officer left after speaking, and Gao Jianguo's face became gloomy. Li Ming hurriedly said: "When Lao Qiao comes back, let's talk to him, this time ......"

Gao Jianguo interrupted Li Ming's words: "This time we are giving an order in the name of the Military Commission, more than 20 boats, and they are also full of supplies, what does Lao Qiao want to do, does the navy want to stand on its own?" If they steal something and get something, I can just pretend I can't see it, but he actually came back with great fanfare, as if others didn't know. What do you ask the company to think of our Military Commission, isn't this a naked slap in the face of our Military Commission? ”

Looking at Gao Jianguo's face full of anger, Li Ming shook his head helplessly and said: "I guess Lao Qiao should have a last resort, he told the ship and supplies in advance in the telegram, just to let us have a psychological preparation, so as not to have other things when we get it." ”

Gao Jianguo took a deep breath, and then said solemnly: "Well, I think Lao Qiao also means this, he may also have his own ideas, and when he comes back, even if we don't look for him, he will talk to us."

Our Military Commission now has hidden dangers. This will not work, and we will say that when our generation is gone, maybe our Far Eastern company will evolve into militarism. This is not only Lao Qiao's problem, but our Military Commission's own problem. Once our territory is large in the future, it is possible to breed warlords and military leaders. When Lao Qiao comes back, the two of us will talk to him alone, this time, Lao Qiao will have to explain no matter what, and this opening must not be opened. (To be continued......)
