Chen Hao and Ban Qianqian laughed and arranged the new home before reentering the game and began to arrange the war on the southern route. The Tsarist Russian Yingkou Army was completely wiped out, forcing the high command to slow down the advance. These days, the Tsarist Russian Siberian First Army and 60,000 soldiers
Many foreign troops stayed at Xiong Yue and did not continue to attack, waiting for the latest order from Tsar Nicholas II.
Jinchang used the captured weapons and equipment to add four battalion heads, and the Yuzi Battalion under his command increased to more than 16,000 people. The NPC soldiers of the Green Battalion who retreated from Xiong Yuecheng were also recruited by Jinchang, which expanded his troops to nearly
With 30,000 people, the number of NPC troops is already close to that of the First Siberian Army.
Jinchang led his troops to Gaiping, issuing tasks to recruit players while rectifying Gaiping's defense. Jinchang can recruit players at a ratio of 1:2. Now he can recruit more than 50,000 players to participate in the war, but the players participating in the war on the Russian side
But there are more than 67,000 people.
The Russian side was well-equipped and had an advantage in numbers. This battle was an offensive and defensive battle. Jinchang was not sure whether he could defend Gaiping. He sent people to Yingkou to inform Chen Hao and let Chen Hao complete the reorganization of his troops.
After that, he sent troops to Gaiping as soon as possible, and joined forces with him to fight the decisive battle with the Russian First Siberian Army heading north in Gaiping.
Zalemenko, commander of the First Siberian Army, was also in a dilemma. According to the command plan, the South Route Army needed to capture Fengtian from south to north, and then join several other armies at Tieling. The North Route Army was blocked by the Chinese army at Belogo.
Ersk, it was impossible to completely occupy Heilongjiang Province in a short time. The Southern Route Army, which the Tsar had placed high hopes on, lost the ability to reach Fengtian after the entire landing force led by Lieutenant General Alexeyev was annihilated.
The desperate Tsar Nicholas II gave Zalemenko the order to continue marching north. Zalemenko used the excuse of insufficient troops to station himself in Xiongyue City and had no intention of going north. He did not dare to openly disobey the Tsar's order.
, Zalemenko did not dare to withdraw his troops and return to Luda, so he could only temporarily station himself in Xiongyue City.
When the high command persuaded Nicholas II and agreed to Zalemenko leading his troops to withdraw south, Zalemenko did not dare to withdraw. More and more Chinese troops were concentrated in Geping. If Zalemenko retreated,
Huaxia is likely to follow the attack, and may even capture Luda in one go.
Luda was a base that Tsarist Russia finally obtained in the Northeast and could not be lost no matter what. Zalemenko understood this. When Jinchang was arranging Gaiping defense, Zalemenko also ordered his men to defend Xiongyue City.
I believe that China's national strength will never be able to resist the coalition forces. As long as we can protect Luda, we will still have a chance.
After receiving the letter from Jinchang, Chen Hao immediately began to reorganize the troops. In the Battle of Dongchang Fort, his battalions suffered little loss. Since there were a large number of horse bandits waiting to recruit and replenish troops, it was easier. In addition to the previous seven battalions,
In addition to replenishing all the troops, Chen Hao added two new cavalry battalions. These two cavalry battalions are mainly composed of NPC horse bandits.
There was nothing he could do about it. Chen Hao wanted all the troops to be equipped with Mosingana rifles. After the Black Dragon Battalion changed their equipment, he only had one thousand Mosingana rifles left. These one thousand Mosingana rifles were Chen Hao's
Hao used previously captured rifles in exchange for firearms that were not officially allocated, and he wanted to keep them to equip his own private army.
He did not have rifles to arm the two new camps. Many horse bandits who had not yet joined the patrol camp got Mosingana when they went north. When recruiting NPC horse bandits, they were required to bring their own firearms and horses. All Chen Hao had to pay was to add new ones.
Official positions at the two battalions and monthly military pay.
Except for the Black Dragon Camp, the military salaries of the other battalions were allocated by the imperial court, so Chen Hao did not need to worry about it at all. The two new battalions were quickly filled up, and were named the seventh and eighth battalions by Chen Hao, plus the previous five
Battalion and Sixth Battalion, the number of cavalry battalions under his command reached four.
Chen Hao's nine battalions totaled 9,000 men, but 4,000 were cavalry. The horses of these 4,000 men were selected from more than 10,000 horses, and they were considered formal cavalry. Almost half of the 9,000-man troops were cavalry.
This ratio is very abnormal, but the horse bandits already have horses. Chen Hao cannot give up and turn the cavalry into infantry.
There are a large number of horse bandits in Chen Hao's nine battalions. After many battles, the level of these horse bandits has been improved and their combat effectiveness has been greatly enhanced. Of course, recruiting horse bandits is not without its drawbacks. The condition for the leader of the horse bandits to lead his men to join is that he does not give up the command of the troops.
Right, the horse bandits under them are still under their own command.
Chen Hao is using the horse bandits to quickly increase his strength, so why aren't these horse bandit leaders using him? After joining the officialdom, these horse bandit leaders have legal identities, and their subordinates can receive regular military pay every month, and they can also wear military uniforms if they have the right opportunity.
Why not do the things of the horse bandits who are following the army?
Chen Hao knew that there were great hidden dangers in recruiting horse bandits, which might lead to the horse bandits in Fengtian becoming more rampant than in history, but he did not take it seriously. After adding a large number of battalions under his command, he could let Yang Du choose from nearly 10,000 people.
Excellent NPCs form a private army, and since they have to earn a living under them, the bandit leader will probably not refuse for the sake of his official position.
As long as he is still serving as the magistrate of the Yingkou Zhili Department, assisted by Yang Du and Wu Peifu, and coupled with the prestige accumulated in the two wars, these horse bandit leaders will not be able to overturn the world. His development of the base in Yingkou is only temporary. If he leaves
In Yingkou, these horse bandit leaders are committing mischief under the guise of the government. It is the government that is causing trouble and it has nothing to do with him.
When Chen Hao served as the magistrate of the Yingkou Zhili Department, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. However, after he left office, everything fell into chaos. Didn't this just highlight his ability? At that time, the horse bandits were doing whatever they wanted. His reputation would not be reduced, but would be improved.
Moreover, because of his prominence in the Northeast, these horse bandit leaders could still remember him as a favor.
After the news about Chen Hao's addition of two battalions spread, in addition to the horse bandits, local militiamen came to join him. Feng Delin and Zhang Zuolin heard that they could retain their own troops by joining the Yingkou Patrol Battalion, so they also brought militiamen to join them.
.
Chen Hao, the head of the Eighth and Ninth Battalions, appointed his official positions entirely based on the troops he brought, so their official positions were not high. Feng Delin served as a garrison in the Eighth Battalion, and Zhang Zuolin served as a hundred households in the Ninth Battalion. Although
Although their official positions are not high, Chen Hao believes that they will be able to stand out quickly with their abilities.
These two historical celebrities have the guidance of system masters, coupled with powerful data attributes, their development trajectories will be different from those in history, but they will eventually become the masters of the Northeast.
After the troops were reorganized, Chen Hao called all the Tsarist Russian prisoners together and said coldly: "I have not treated you badly during this period. Now I need you to do something. I will arrange for you to serve as military instructors in each battalion, and you will perform well."
Officers are highly rewarded. If you perform particularly well, I will let you go back."
After the translator translated Chen Hao's words into Russian, a major came out and said: "General, we are prisoners now. I hope you will abide by international treaties and treat us well. Our country will soon negotiate with your army to redeem us."
.If you ask us to train soldiers for you, this is related to our secrets, and we will not agree to it."
Chen Hao said to the major expressionlessly: "What's your name?"
"Fladimir Mskov Petrovich."
Chen Hao said coldly: "Major Petrovich, this is the land of China. I am the highest commander of the Yingkou Zhili Department. I make the decision here. Don't talk about international conventions in front of me. You have only two choices, either follow the
My demands are to train my soldiers or die."
"Major, since you are openly questioning my decision, I will give you twenty military sticks to wake you up. If you are still unwilling, you will appear on your army's death list."
The two soldiers quickly rushed over and knocked down Major Petrovich, swung their military sticks and started beating him. Chen Hao wondered with some evil humor whether Petrovich was the first Tsarist Russian officer to enjoy the Chinese military stick.
Petrovich screamed twice and shouted: "You violated international conventions and abused prisoners of war. You will not end well..."
"Fuck you **International Convention." Chen Hao spat in Petrovich's face, took out a Colt pistol, pointed it at Petrovich's head and pulled the trigger. Petrovich had just been beaten with a military stick.
Qi twitched twice and then lay on the ground motionless.
"Player Chen Baxian, because you violated the spirit of humanity and shot prisoners of war, you have been warned by the system. If you do similar behavior again, you will be punished."
Chen Hao smiled when he received the system prompt. He originally thought that killing Petrovich would reduce his reputation by 1 point. It seemed that because he killed too few prisoners, the system did not deduct his reputation points, but only gave him a symbolic warning.
.Petrovich's special skill is just a queue. There are many such prisoners, and there will be no loss in killing him.
These old men are used to being cruel. When they were captured, they thought they were the masters. They had to kill the chickens to scare the monkeys first to make them realize.
Chen Ha put the gun in his waist and said calmly to a group of Tsarist Russian prisoners: "Is there anyone else who wants to discuss international conventions with me? If you are willing to talk, you can come forward. If you don't want to talk to me, you all agree to train for me."
Soldier."
After the translator translated Chen Hao's words again, these Russian prisoners of war remained silent. If they were not afraid of death at all, they would not surrender. After a moment of silence, the inventor of the mortar, Nikolayevich Gobiato, left.
He came out and said: "Sir, we can agree to your terms and train soldiers for you, but you must promise to let us return home after three months."
Chen Hao showed a smile on his face and said: "Yes! If the military skills you have taught me in the past three months satisfy me, I can let you leave. But Captain Gobbiato, I admire your ability very much, and I don't need you."
Train soldiers for me. I know you are good at improving light artillery. If one day you can make artillery that satisfies me, I will not only let you return home but also give you a large fortune." (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature,
