Volume 3 Miracles of the Ages Chapter 274 Recovering the Middle Road at once (6)
On March 23, the sixth year of the Republic of China (1917), the Russian army and the Soviet Russian army issued an urgent joint statement, declaring their support for the Russian bourgeois provisional government, and held a Russian military and civilian congress in the Russian-occupied areas to celebrate the establishment of the Russian bourgeois provisional government. However, the two sides had serious differences, and the Soviets appointed Slavin as the head of the Far Eastern Railways, while the old Russian forces were still centered on the former head of the Eastern Eastern Railways, Horvat.
At 8 p.m. on March 23, the Beijing government sent a belated telegram ordering Wang Maoru, the overseer of Heilongjiang, to strictly adhere to "neutrality" and not to intervene in the conflict between the Russian army, and the army to retreat. Wang Maoru immediately sent a telegram to refute Duan Qirui's telegram order, saying that his move was at the invitation of his ally Russia, and did not belong to private intervention, and the government should support it.
On March 24, Heilongjiang Provincial Supervisor Wang Maoru issued a telegram, claiming that the Black Army had assisted the Russian army in "protecting" the western section of the Eastern Railway from Manchuria to Harbin, and had cleared all the rebels and the army that did not know the truth, and the Heilongjiang section of the Middle Eastern Railway was "friendly trusteeship" by the squadron, and Harbin had made peace because of the intervention of the squadron, and the two sides were no longer at war.
As soon as this power came out, the world was in an uproar.
This is not a power-up, this is a **naked declaration announcing that the Eastern Railway has been recaptured by the **squadron!
The Russian bourgeois Provisional Government in Europe was also at a loss, and sent the Russian Bourgeois Provisional Government to the Trans-Amur Province to comfort the lower house member Rusanov to Harbin for coordinated discussions, and demanded that the squadron must return the Eastern Railway.
Wang Maoru secretly ordered his subordinates. The Russian army was imprisoned in batches, and the Russian soldiers who had brutalized the Chinese people in the past were tried and shot, and other Russians were sent to the Hulunbuir coal mine to work as free miners.
After this war, the Russians were much more honest, but Russia would never allow a strong China to emerge. So they demanded that the squadron withdraw its troops and return the Russian Eastern Railway.
Among them, Britain, France, the Netherlands, and the United States and Japanese ministers united to put pressure on Duan Qirui's government. Demand that the Chinese government withdraw its troops immediately, otherwise it will be a challenge to the power of other countries in China.
In particular, the Japanese minister, Nippon Zhiyi, threatened to demand that the Chinese government punish Wang Maoru, the overseer of Heilongjiang. Sending troops without authorization...... This was immediately denied by Duan Qirui, and there was an invitation from the commander of the Russian Railway Guard, Daleyan, Wang Maoru only helped out of friendship with the allies, and did not send troops without authorization.
The Russians immediately responded, saying that Daleyan had died before the power was sent, that it could not be that he sent the telegram, and that it was his secretary Amirliuko who sent the message, and that it was not on behalf of the Russian side. However, Amirliuko is also a serious Russian official, and at the same time, Heilongjiang sent Ding Shuhuai, an important member of the Harbin Undertaking Office, to give a certificate at a press conference. It is proved that Amiryuko really left evidence, and there are testimonies and testimonies of Amiryuko. In particular, Ding Shuhuai rarely used a phonograph to leave Amirliuko's testimony, which was even more certain that the Russian side had issued a request for help. Amirliuko not only published a telegram, but also used the Russian password to send a request for help to Russia. and stated that Daleyan had given this order only when there was no way to do it, and that Horvat had lost command of the Far East.
Wang Maoru asked Ding Shuhuai to stir up the water as much as possible, and he sat back and enjoyed it, you quarrel for one more day, and I will garrison the army for one more day. Soldiers were ordered to pull away all the resources of the Russian army. When the Soviet Union entered the Northeast, it took away almost all the heavy industrial equipment in the Northeast. As a result, in some stations, even the glass windows were removed and taken away.
Under the intervention of various governments, Wang Maoru could not rely on it, so he slowly withdrew his troops, and at the same time asked the Russian army to pay a certain amount of money for the troops and pensions for the soldiers who died in the war to help the Russian army, Horvat was furious, we don't pay this money, but Slavin of the Soviet Front said that we can go, but ask you to return our soldiers, and at the same time return the Middle East Road to us. The bourgeois Russian Provisional Government had two brains, and Wang Maoru handed over the western section of the Middle East Road to the Soviets without violating the demands of the Great Powers for the return of the Russian Eastern Railway.
The negotiations continued until April, but in early April, the Russian navy returning to China via the China Eastern Railway looted and killed people in Suifenhe, Hengdaohezi, Yimianpo and other places, and Guo Zongxi telegraphed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to negotiate with the Russian envoy. Wang Maoru telegraphed Guo Zongxi to protect Chinese residents and severely reprimanded the local squadron for inaction. This move made Horvat very unhappy, and at the same time, the government of Duan Qirui in Beijing once again demanded that Wang Maoru withdraw his troops.
The Black Army slowly and leisurely withdrew, returning five kilometers of railways a day, and returning two hundred wounded Soviet sappers a day, but not a single person was released from the old Russian army.
However, what Wang Maoru did not expect was that the Russians did not give the wounded and sick pension he asked for the support of the Russian army, but the Chinese workers in the 36th shed of Harbin donated money to aid the Russian bourgeois-democratic revolution and gave it for the Russians.
This Chinese worker is too revolutionary in the world, and Wang Maoru was so angry that he vomited blood in the Hulan headquarters.
According to the post-war count, the Heilongjiang Army dispatched 110,000 troops this time, suffered 1,600 casualties in the battle, killed and wounded 3,100 Russian soldiers, captured 5,400 Russian troops (including the wounded), and executed 417 Russian soldiers who had bad deeds.
In the six years of the Republic of China, the Black Provincial Army fired the first shot of the squadron in the world.
Throughout the battle, the Heilongjiang Army conquered the Middle East Road in four days with absolute numbers, sophisticated weapons, long-planned preparations, and thunderous momentum, which really shocked the whole country and even the world.
Northern Shangwu, in the past, was only talked about in the civil war, and now the name of this Shangwu general can be added to resist the old Maozi and promote the name of the Chinese. Of course, because of the weakness of the government and the country, Wang Maoru, the overseer of Heilongjiang by the Shangwu general, had to return the Eastern Railway to the Russian Provisional Government, but he played a trick and returned the railway five kilometers a day, okay, I'm not in a hurry, and you don't have to worry.
This matter is quite scoundrel, and this more than 1,300-kilometer railway will be returned to the Year of the Monkey. Five kilometers a day, 260 days, nearly nine months.
Scoundrel, what a scoundrel! How can you, a dignified general of a country, be like a scoundrel, and raise the "custody fee" from time to time, do you think you are British?
The Heilongjiang Army withdrew from Harbin. However, it sent troops to garrison Hulan County, on the other side of the river from Harbin, in the name of preventing rebellious soldiers from taking the opportunity to disturb the people.
One of the biggest shortcomings reflected in this battle was the lack of middle-level commands, all of which were distributed by the headquarters headquarters. This makes the work of the headquarters very heavy, and more than a dozen brigade-level units have also waited for a long time to get a reply when reporting the situation to the top, aiming at this. Wang Mao ordered the formation of a provisional division and reorganized it after waiting for the matter to be over.
Wang Maoru immediately ordered that the First Infantry Brigade and the Fifth Infantry Brigade should immediately form the First Division of the Heilongjiang Army, which would be stationed in Hulan, with Li Delin as the commander of the First Division and commander of the First Brigade, and Li Pinxian as the deputy division commander and commander of the Fifth Infantry Brigade. In Hulunbuir, the Third Infantry Brigade and the Sixth Infantry Brigade, which had just been transferred to Hulunbuir, formed the Second Division of the Heilongjiang Army, which was temporarily organized to garrison Hulunbuir. In particular, Manchuria was stationed to prevent the Russians from marching from Manchuria. The 2nd Division of the participating army was divided into two brigades, namely the 12th Infantry Brigade and the 13th Infantry Brigade. The Second Infantry Brigade and the 12th Infantry Brigade were merged into the 3rd Heilongjiang Division, and the division commander Ren Yuanxing concurrently served as the commander of the 2nd Infantry Brigade. Deputy division commander Fei Chaogui concurrently served as the commander of the 12th Infantry Brigade. The Fourth Infantry Brigade and the 11th Infantry Brigade were merged into the Fourth Division of the Heilongjiang Army, with division commander Gai Tianjiu concurrently serving as commander of the Fourth Infantry Brigade and deputy division commander Xu Zhengyi concurrently serving as commander of the 11th Infantry Brigade. The 13th Infantry Brigade and the Guard Brigade were merged into the Provisional Fifth Division, with Zhu Yongquan, deputy chief of staff, and Wang Qiyuan, deputy division commander. The cavalry brigade and artillery brigade were directly under the base camp, and Wang Maoru also ordered Guo Songling of the training department to continue to recruit troops to replenish the soldiers lost in this battle. Niu Delu of the resettlement office was ordered to show mercy to the fallen soldiers, ordered the military medical department to make every effort to treat the wounded soldiers and let the soldiers return to the team in good health, and ordered the ordnance department to inspect the firearms, ammunition and weapons reserves.
Five provisional divisions, plus one participating division, and three independent brigades, formed the Heilongjiang Army All-Infantry Brigade, which shocked Zhang Zuolin and Duan Qirui when Wang Maoru announced it.
"What has this kid been doing secretly in the past few years?" Zhang Zuolin said to himself, he secretly developed in Fengtian, only to develop two and a half divisions of troops, but he did not expect that after ten years of hard work, people only developed more than 100,000 people in six divisions in Hulunbuir for four years. How can you afford that poor place in Heilongjiang? Fake, it must be fake, Zhang Zuolin immediately found the chief of staff Yang Yuting, and ordered Yang Yuting to send someone to Heilongjiang to investigate whether Wang Maoru's army is true, if this is the case, then it is not certain who dominates the world in the Northeast.
Yang Yuting made a plan and said: "Dashuai, why don't you give him a Hongmen banquet?" ”
"Hongmen Banquet?" Zhang Zuolin naturally heard what the Hongmen Banquet is, as long as you are Chinese, you know what this Hongmen Banquet is.
"I heard that Wang Xiusheng raised soldiers with private money, if he is not there, his son is still in infancy, and the black army will be chaotic." Yang Yuting coldly made a cut gesture and said.
Zhang Zuolin is also a hero, so naturally he will not have a benevolent heart, he immediately asked: "Damn, is it really fake?" ”
"The news I got from the Japanese is true." Yang Yuting affirmed, and said with a sneer, "Dashuai, this Wang Maoru made a fortune in the south and rose in the north, he is really a hero in the world, you see that he is doing whatever he wants in Heilongjiang now, why does the Beijing government repeatedly tolerate it?" ”
"For what?"
Yang Yuting said solemnly: "This Wang Mao is rich, soldier and powerful, and second, he is a Beiyang orthodox young man, not our native soldier outside the border at all, he just uses this land to support himself, his ambition is not small, he wants to inherit the Beiyang unification." Therefore, he tried every possible way to win over the old Beiyang department and shield the Beiyang criminals, and the Yuan Party wanted to develop in his Heilongjiang one after another. Although some of these people have done some unbearable things for the president and emperor, it is undeniable that these people are contemporary heroes, and these people work together in Heilongjiang, so that Wang Maoru has no worries. You see that Yuan Keding Yuan is a big cripple, after becoming the ** official in Heilongjiang, he is actually conscientious, and it is said that he also formulated the "Measures for Criminal Cases in Heilongjiang Province". Wang Maoru bought the hearts of the people in Beiyang, Duan Qirui had no way to deal with him, and even the people inside Duan Qirui also agreed with Wang Maoru. Yang Yuting stood up, walked back and forth, and said, "Dashuai, the sooner this person is eliminated, the better." ”
