Chapter 253 Northern Dragon's Tooth (Part 2)
Chapter 253 North Korea Dragon Teeth (Central)
A lot of thick smoke rose over Harbin city in the early morning. Harbin occupied by Tsarist Russia used the Middle East Railway to build many sweat-sweat colonial factories, most of which were institutions serving Tsarist Russia's Far East.//.com//
The Central East Railway General Factory (Harbin Vehicle Factory) is one of the largest factories in Harbin. Four trains can be inspected and maintained at the same time. In the past, this kind of work was placed in Vladivostok. With the opening of the Middle East Railway, especially after the failure of the Russo-Japanese War, Russia strengthened the construction here, and had more than 2,000 Chinese workers and technical workers sent from all over Russia.
The reason why it is expanded rather than built in Vladivostok is that in addition to strengthening control over Harbin and Northeast China is that Chinese workers are cheap. They can have a large number of coolies who can work for more than ten hours a day with some bread and sauerkraut and rifles. Is there any better way to buy and sell than this?
In terms of exploitation, Tsarist Russia and Japan are undoubtedly the most cruel. In the Japanese and Russian factories in the northeast, Chinese workers must work for up to 16 hours a day. If they are slack, they will be punched and kicked, and they will even be executed. On the contrary, factories such as Britain, France and Germany in Shanhaiguan are slightly better. At least workers can get wages equivalent to local living standards every month.
Qin Jian, 27, wrapped his cotton jacket tightly and walked towards the main factory. His tall figure and beard all over his face made him look a bit like a Tatar. It was this appearance that made him disguise as a descendant of Tatar who was mingled in Xinjiang. He was an ordinary maintenance worker in his resume, but in fact he was one of the agents of the National Security Administration. He was a displaced Tatar refugee with the task he took half a year ago and arrived in Vladivostok. He then returned to Harbin. Since he received training in the Hanyang factory, he soon got a job here.
The lurking for several months allowed him to see scenes that were not visible in the south. The arrogant Tsarist Russian invaders acted recklessly on this land, oppressing and enslaving the Chinese here, occupying almost all known mines, and also plundered the wealth that belonged to China with machine guns and cannons. It is said that Lieutenant General Horwat, who has become the most powerful Lieutenant General Horwat, who has become Harbin's most powerful wealth in just a few years, embezzled and plundered at least millions of dollars in wealth. The cellar of the official residence is full of gold and jewelry.
This time he accepted the task of "Teaching Teeth". Compared to lurking, Tiething Teeth is more difficult, because this character needs to mix into various industries of society like an orphan who has been scattered, and then work and live like an ordinary person, integrate into the target world, until one day he is activated, and may never be activated.
This is the most difficult and challenging task. At the beginning of the establishment of the Ministry of Security, many people did not like to be "Tibetan". Until a founder of the Security Bureau took the initiative to be "Tibetan", everyone was moved by the passion and loyalty to the country in his body, and began to accept this task.
Qin Jian’s goal is very simple. He tried every means to contact and integrate into the Bolshevik senior management. There were many people who accepted the task with him. Everyone disappeared from the vast northeast and Siberia with various professions. No one knew whether they could get together in the future, and no one knew whether they would lose their faith and loyalty to the country in the process of "hiding teeth".
Compared with other partners who have integrated deeper into it, he was undoubtedly lucky. He not only came to the general factory that was said to be full of Bolshevik ideas, but also met many Bolsheviks, and he also joined the Bolsheviks a month ago. Of course, this was not enough. They were all small fish and shrimps. His dream was to become the person in charge of the Bolshevik Harbin, Liujin and Shumiyasky, who trusted the most.
However, it is very difficult to achieve this. Although the Bolsheviks have all kinds of ideas, the organizational structure is very strict. Few people know who the top leaders are. Moreover, the Russian authorities suppress them very strictly, and people are often taken away and disappear from then on. (Baidu search, watch the latest update of this book)
He was a little anxious at first. It was too difficult to rely on the power of a person, but at this moment he received news that someone would cover him.
With the cooperation of partners, the future will be different!
Qin Jian quickly walked into the main factory, and several Tsarist Russian soldiers stopped him lazily, with Russian language and documents in a strong Tatar accent, which prevented him from being searched.
Several Russian trains waiting for maintenance were parked side by side on the rails, and many workers like him were busy up and down around them, forging machines, gear machines, crankshaft machines, etc. Hundreds of machines roared constantly. In the semi-enclosed factory shed at the bottom, there were two steaming car heads assembled halfway.
Qin Jian’s job is to assemble and manufacture steamed car heads. In fact, this factory does not have the ability to produce locomotives, the most important thing is that it cannot produce supporting boilers. However, the Lieutenant General Horvat, who was very enthusiastic about the achievements, felt that it was too wasteful to let Chinese workers knock and beat every day. In addition, there were many Russian technicians sent here, so he forced to assemble and build the locomotives. He also said that it was necessary to build a factory in the Far East that could produce fifty locomotives a year for the great Tsar to solve the situation of insufficient transportation capacity in the Far East.
He was boasting that the two locomotives in front of him started to be built after Qin Jian entered the factory. They have not been completed for half a year, so it is just a joke that the annual output of fifty vehicles is just a joke. However, the distant St. Petersburg took it seriously and even transported him more than 200 machine tools, two metallurgical furnaces with a daily output of 10 tons, and a fund worth 300,000 pounds... All of these were poured into his private pocket!
This batch of machinery that was still piled up in the factory and was not opened, which also aroused Qin Jian's jealousy. He also sent a message back to inform him that there were a large number of idle machinery here, so that his partners could find ways to buy and expand their domestic industrial strength.
After the previous mechanical training, coupled with the half-year work and research here, the "work" of the Excellency Halvatt is still very valuable in Qin Jian's eyes. As long as the boiler manufacturing problem can be solved, this factory will definitely have the ability to produce 10 locomotives a year.
"Ivan, don't stand there, be careful to be seen by those supervisors."
Not far away, a Russian holding a drawing in his hand interrupted Qin Jian's thoughts. Mir Ivan was the Russian name he gave him, which sounded like a member of the famous Ivan family of Tatars. Although in fact, he had nothing to do with Tatars, because of his appearance, name and hard work, everyone regarded him as a descendant of Tatar.
The Russian in the distance was a train designer. Such a person was definitely a great talent in Hanyang, but he was slandered as a rebel for his party and exiled here because of a trivial matter with the nobles. As a result, he became a member of the Bolsheviks.
Qin Jian cast a grateful look at Russian partners, saying that the Bolsheviks treated Chinese workers quite well. The things they promoted were also very inflammatory among Chinese workers. Some of the ideas in them were even similar to those of the National Society, but he would not be confused by appearances. As the commander-in-chief said in the training, Russia is the country that has caused the most serious harm to China in hundreds of years, and even no one! The Russians' personalities are barbaric, reckless and betrayal. These things in their bones cannot be changed. The Bolsheviks are simply because they are currently in absolute weakness. They have to rely on the Chinese to hide and survive on this land. Without the support of the Chinese, they will be easily wiped out by the Tsarist Russian army.
If it were normal, Qin Jian would have accepted the advice and worked hard immediately, but today... he lazily picked up the wrench, and slowly tapped the iron wheel and crankshaft to pretend to check. This lazy working attitude was soon seen by two Russian supervisors holding leather whips, and rushed up with a grin.
"Pan..."
Before Qin Jian could prepare, the tip of the whip hit his back hard, and a blood mark appeared on his clothes: "Damn it! Hurry up, are you looking for death?"
Qin Jian endured the pain, turned his head and pretended to be extremely scared: "Sir, I...I feel a little uncomfortable today, maybe I am sick."
"Is sick? Yes! Haha... I'll check you carefully." His pitiful and helpless expression did not arouse sympathy, but instead made the Russian supervisor even more rampant. It seemed that he had seen the best toy, and the whip fell on him again.
"I'm sick! Smack... that's great! I'm going to slap your hands and feet so that you can stay sick forever!" The supervisor whipped his whip, and each stroke made Qin Jian feel so painful. If it weren't for pretending to be pitiful and attracting the sympathy of the Chinese workers and the Bolsheviks around him, he really wanted to kill these two guys directly.
The intentional screaming was not in vain. The Chinese workers and Bolsheviks who heard the sound around them all picked up the guys and rushed over, shouting: "Stop! Don't beat people randomly!"
"Varick, you butcher! Ivan is a skilled worker!"
"You capitalists' lackeys, butchers!"
The total factory has the largest number of working class in Harbin and is one of the fastest places in the Bolsheviks in the Northeast. Even if it is not for Qin Jian, the Tsarist Russian supervisors representing the evil capitalism will hate them.
Seeing that there were more and more people around, the supervisor was also a little panicked, especially when he saw that there was a guy in his hand. He was so scared that he stopped whipping and pulling out his revolver and shouted: "Damn it, let me go back to work, otherwise all of them will be arrested!"
When it comes to arrest, some workers began to be scared, but when they saw Qin Jian lying on the ground, he gritted his teeth and continued to confront him. Seeing that the pistol could not scare the workers, the supervisor quickly blew a police whistle to greet the soldiers stationed in the factory.
The shrill police whistle made the workers' faces slightly change. The army is not supervisors. The cruelty of Tsarist Russian soldiers is famous in the Northeast. They will even peel off even if they are caught by them! The shouting and running sounds of kicking and stomping began to make everyone nervous. At this moment! Qin Jian, who was lying on the ground, suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the two supervisors while shouting: "Distract quickly! This is my business, don't implicate everyone! I will fight with you!"
Because the supervisor was attracted by the workers, he never expected that Qin Jian, who was beaten to death, would suddenly explode. Before he could pay much attention, his wrist was hit hard by a wrench, and two pistols fell to the ground.
Qin Jianyan quickly grabbed the pistol, yelling and waving everyone to leave, while rushing towards the soldiers.
The Russian soldier running in the front saw Qin Jian having a gun in his hand, and raised the gun without saying a word. The sound of gunfire suddenly made the factory explode. At almost the same time, the workers who heard the gunshot grabbed the tools beside them and rushed out of the factory.
In the Russian camp next to the repair shop, Liu Jinzheng pulled a worker in blue cloth work clothes and whispered: "Comrade Xilin, you must be very careful when you go back. The evil Tsar will definitely not let you go easily."
Xilin is the pseudonym of Shumiyasky. In 1906, he was arrested for organizing and leading the armed uprising of the Krasnoyask workers. After the outbreak of the Russo-Japanese War, Russia urgently needed to expand Harbin's industrial power, so he sent hundreds of technical workers, including him, to this place. He also hid his name Xilin as a driving technician. After arriving, he soon became the leader of the Bolsheviks here and quickly established a complete organizational structure, especially the general factory. With his efforts, he became the base camp of the Bolsheviks in the Far East. But today he was about to say goodbye because his sentence was over and he was allowed to return to Europe.
The man in front of him was Liu Jin. After Shumiyasky left, he would become a continuator and continue to take charge of the Harbin Bolshevik workers' organization.
"Dear Comrade Liujin, thank you for your concern, I will be careful." Shumiyasky shook hands with Liujin and reminded: "Harbin has a good foundation. I hope you will lead your comrades to continue to work hard and pay attention to developing more Chinese people. Only by uniting the Chinese here can we overthrow the tyrant's ruling foundation here."
Liu Jin was a very cautious person. In fact, Shumiyasky felt that he was not suitable to be a leader because he lacked decisiveness. However, the Far East lacked comrades with great gaze compared to Europe, so he could only serve on the part-time role for the time being. After returning to Russia, the comrades on his side would discuss whether to change people.
"Comrade Xilin, please rest assured, I will be careful." Liu Jin did not feel that Shumiyasky actually did not agree with him very much. He understood the importance of developing Chinese people, but one thing he was more worried about: "Although our thoughts have been recognized by many Chinese workers and have a certain foundation here, I am worried about whether China will interfere with our development after the unification of China."
Shumiyasky was also worried about this matter. China's rapidly changing political situation was dazzling. Although the revolution led by the Democratic Party successfully overthrew the corrupt Qing government, it was disrupted by a young man who suddenly emerged and the KMT Party. The not long ago's Northern Expedition laid the foundation for the KMT Party to unify China. Although the news of the peace talks had not yet come, everyone knew that China's unification was inevitable.
What impact will a unified capitalist China have on the development of the Bolsheviks in the Far East?
Shumiyasky was unable to predict and said frankly: "Comrade Liujin, I don't know what to do about this matter, but please believe me. After returning to Europe, I will contact the organization as soon as possible and send people to contact the Chinese government to test their attitude."
Liu Jin knew that there was only this, so he got up and prepared to see Shumiyasky off, but at this moment... there was a sudden fierce gunshot outside! The two of them suddenly changed their faces. What happened?
A moment later, a Bolshevik party member rushed in: "Comrade Xilin, Comrade Liu Jin, something happened in the factory!"
"What happened!"
Shumiyasky looked excited. It was his efforts for many years to develop the headquarters in this way. If it was wiped out by the Tsarist Russian government, it would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the development of the Bolsheviks in the Far East.
The visitor immediately beat Qin Jian to the supervisor, causing the workers to confront each other in anger. When they heard that Qin Jian was beaten to the point of blood, they angrily robbed the gun and opened fire with the soldiers, and killed several people and ran away, their faces suddenly became solemn.
Mir Ivan?
Shumiyatsky frowned: "Is it Tatar Ivan who has been living here from Xinjiang?"
"Yes!" The visitor nodded: "He had joined us last month, Comrade Shumiyasky, we should save him, otherwise he would be beaten to death by those lackeys."
Shumiyasky glanced at Liu Jin, who thought about it and said, "He could not escape from the city after being injured, but we would cause trouble when we go to find him personally. It would be better to find Comrade Ren Fuchen. He has a good relationship with the Chinese police in the police station."
"You can do this and try to rescue Comrade Ivan." Shumiyasky thought about it and said, "I will stabilize the emotions of the comrades in the factory. The armed uprising is not ready yet, and nothing can happen yet."
