Fengxian Jiangshan

The Trans-Siberian Railway crosses the Eurasian continent, and is located in the worst climate area. The lowest temperature along the line exceeds minus [-] degrees. The machinery and equipment are easily damaged, and there is a large area of ​​permafrost, which also increases the construction work. difficulty.

In addition, there is another terrible problem in Siberia. About six or seven months of twelve months are in the snow and ice, and there are two months of muddy time. The harsh environment is far beyond the experience of most Chinese people. imagine.

The harsh environment made the Siberian Railway have to be repaired frequently, and the consumption was astonishing. This is why Tsarist Russia insisted on building the Middle East Road. After all, traveling through Northeast China can reduce a lot of losses.

Because of the need for maintenance all year round, the Shuangchengzi Machine Repair Factory will be equipped with a rail workshop, and it has stockpiled a lot of tools and machines for maintenance, as well as a large amount of spare materials. It is too urgent for Constantine to escape, and these things are all intact. The moving ones stayed in the factory.

Zhang Xueliang walked around the factory, and immediately smiled. Although he didn't know what these machines and equipment were, Zhang Xueliang was sure that they were all good things, and they could be used when they moved back to the Northeast.

Even if it can’t be used, it can be melted and re-smelted steel. After all, Anshan Iron and Steel has just broken ground, and it is still far away from real steel production. The Fengjun urgently needs a lot of good steel, so Zhang Xueliang ordered the soldiers to move away as much as possible Don't leave a single screw behind.

These Fengjun soldiers also moved in a hurry. They all knew that these things were things to enhance their industrial strength, especially after hearing that they could produce railroad tracks by themselves, Fengjun could build railways with their own strength, and then There is no need to be threatened by the Japanese.All the soldiers are extraordinarily energetic.

The machine repair factory is connected to the railway, and there are still many locomotives. At this time, Zhang Henian has already started, kidnapping several train drivers and sending them over. With the drivers, the train can be used. Moved to the train, ready to quickly transport back to Suifenhe.

At this moment, Zhang Xueliang walked to the back of the factory.They found a shed. There was a tall wall outside the shed, and the doors were all locked. It looked heavily guarded. Zhang Xueliang only regarded it as a warehouse.Hurriedly let the Fengjun soldiers be smashed by the lock.

The door was smashed open, and a sour smell came out from inside.It makes people sick.At this time, the small door of the shed inside was also opened, and a few extremely thin faces protruded from the inside, looking out tremblingly.

These people are all yellow-skinned and black-eyed, and they are not Russians at all. Zhang Xueliang was also a little puzzled, and couldn't help asking: "Are you Chinese?"

Those trembling faces finally saw clearly the soldiers outside.He also heard the voice of speaking clearly, and suddenly these people burst into tears, piercing their hearts, as if they were filled with endless grievances.

Gradually, more and more people came out of the shed.They were all in ragged clothes, the colors of the clothes on their bodies could not be distinguished, their faces were very dirty, their hair and beards were messed up, and there were a few strong people wearing torture instruments on their hands and feet. , all showed expressions of disbelief.

After a while, an older worker asked, "Sir, are you our country's army?"

When Zhang Xueliang saw these people, he guessed a thing or two. Since the Russians built the Siberia Railway, many Chinese workers had been introduced.The Chinese are hard-working and seem to never tire. This national nature is exploited by these dirty colonists. Americans build railways in the west and use a large number of Chinese laborers. Russians build railways in the Far East. They also use Chinese laborers, but there is one thing that is the same Yes, these Chinese laborers are not treated as human beings, they are pathetic piggies!

Compatriots and relatives are connected by blood. Looking at the conditions of these people, one can tell that they must be living a life that is not as good as pigs and dogs. Zhang Xueliang also felt a burst of sadness.

"That's right, we are Fengjun, and now Shuangchengzi is under our control!"

As soon as these words were uttered, all the workers erupted. They cheered loudly and showed childlike smiles. Zhang Xueliang was also sincerely happy. He asked his soldiers to call all the workers out to help those with torture tools. Workers remove handcuffs and shackles.

These workers also introduced their situation. They all crossed the Guandong at the beginning, and were tricked by the Russians to Siberia, where they engaged in the most difficult jobs, some repairing railways, some digging mines, some cutting wood, and countless others. The Chinese workers were exhausted to death, and some were beaten to death.

They were assigned to the machine repair factory. They had to move rails and build roads every day. They did the hardest work, and their food and accommodation were not as good as pigs and dogs. guards to prevent them from communicating with the outside world.

In the past few days, the Russian army has been defeated, Shuangchengzi is in a mess, and they are ignored. These workers are all hungry, but they dare not go out easily, so they have been suffering for several days. come out.

Listening to the narration of these workers, I felt sour in my heart. The people would suffer inhuman treatment when the country was in decline. He asked the Fengjun soldiers to distribute some military rations to these workers so that they could fill their stomachs.

Fengjun's military rations include steamed buns, fried noodles, and canned meat. After they were placed in front of the workers, their eyes lit up. They hadn't seen such good things for many years, so everyone wolfed down them. Just wipe the food away.

A worker who looked only in his teens asked Zhang Xueliang with tears in his eyes after eating: "Sir, can you let us go home? My mother doesn't know my life or death yet!"

As soon as he said this, it immediately aroused the sadness of the workers present, and everyone cried again. Zhang Xueliang hurriedly said: "Don't worry, everyone, since the Fengjun has taken control of Shuangchengzi, we will take all the workers in the city away. Let everyone go home and reunite with their loved ones."

After the promise was made, all the workers burst into tears, as if it was Chinese New Year. Zhang Xueliang also knew that there would be Chinese workers in other factories, so he hurriedly told the Fengjun soldiers to pay attention and gather all the Chinese workers. , take them home together.

After some searching, a total of more than 500 Chinese laborers were found in the city. According to their introduction, there were about 700 people here before winter. The Russians did not regard them as human beings at all. After one winter, there were more than 200 Chinese laborers. They all died of cold and hunger. Seeing these miserable Chinese workers, the hatred of the Fengjun soldiers towards the Russians reached its peak.

Some recruits still feel guilty for using Russian wounded soldiers to practice bayonets, but now, they have put everything aside. As the saying goes, if you are not benevolent and I am not righteous, how the Russians treat the Chinese, the Chinese will be ten times and a hundred times Also go back.

More than 500 workers have been gathered together, Zhang Xueliang is also quite happy, maybe these people can be of great use in Fengtian, so let the soldiers ask to see what skills they have.

But after asking, Zhang Xueliang was a little disappointed. Most of these workers were coolies, and they had no access to any technical work. Play a role.

Fortunately, they are all young and strong, and they can work as farm workers or even soldiers. In short, the three eastern provinces are short of population.At this time, Zhang Tingshu also rushed over. He was in charge of transporting the ordnance repair shop, and he also found a lot of good things in it.

There are about a thousand Mosin Nagans, many parts of machine guns and rifles, and processing machines. The shells produced in Europe temporarily existed here, so Master Zhang Er would naturally not be relentless, and they all loaded them into cars and took them away.

"Sixth brother, you are smart and confused for a while, do you want to hear my little brother give you some advice?"

"Tingshu, don't be foolish, if you have any ideas, just tell me."

"Sixth brother, these workers don't know anything, but some people know it. Isn't it a great achievement for us to pull all the workers back?"

With a word to wake up the dreamer, Zhang Xueliang's eyes lit up immediately, he slapped his thigh, and said with a smile: "Tingshu, you are still smart, and those Russian workers, let's tie them all back. In the past, they squeezed Chinese laborers. Now It's our turn to squeeze them."

Zhang Xueliang immediately ordered the Fengjun soldiers to search for all the Russian technicians in the city. Don't let any one go, including their family members, all packed and dragged to Fengtian. Soon the Fengjun heard the news, and the two cities were suddenly tossed. .

Those Russian technicians who did not have time to escape were all arrested, stuffed into trains, and transported back to Suifenhe together. The moving operation lasted for more than a day, and five trains were loaded. 200 million rubles and a lot of gold.

According to Zhang Tinglan's previous instructions, Zhang Xueliang allocated 100 million rubles and gave 50 to Ivanov, and the remaining 50 were also distributed to those bureaucrats who helped Fengjun provide information. You want to accuse them of disturbing the situation in the Far East.

Ivanov and the others did live up to expectations. With their containment, none of the Russian reinforcements were sent out. Zhang Xueliang and the others easily moved things and people back as if they were shopping in the market.

"Sixth brother, do you think we should dismantle these rails as well? This is also high-quality steel, and it can be used when we go back to make guns and cannons."

Zhang Xueliang is also a little tempted, but it is best to shake his head: "Have you forgotten the warning of Zhuo Yan, don't destroy the railway, after all, it is not easy to build roads, don't think that this place is owned by the Russians now, maybe it will be in the future." Ours is now in the hands of the Russians for the time being."

They hurried back, and at this time Zhang Tinglan was also receiving an old friend, that is the Tsar's nephew Felis. (To be continued..)
