Chapter 54 War Fortune

Song Biao often acted based on intuition. He had a premonition that he could no longer gamble wildly in the Russo-Japanese War, so he immediately wanted to leave. The next morning, he contacted Russia again through Major Turgenier Brigadier General Madnidorf of the Far Eastern Army Staff.

Hearing that Song Biao had returned to Yangguantun, Brigadier General Mardenidoff was still very surprised, because this was against military law. However, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that the military law of the Tsarist Empire was not very good at directly controlling Song Biao.

Because Song Biao's sudden return was quite special and strange, Brigadier General Mardenidoff came quietly to meet with Song Biao in the afternoon. When he arrived at Yangguantun, Song Biao was discussing with others the matter of selling grain. This matter was in Turgenye With the secret help of Major Er, all the conditions are now met. Lao Jintou has also reached a sales agreement with several local rice banks. Now he is waiting for the grain to be transported to Shenyang City to sell the rice secretly.

Public sale is almost impossible because the Russian army is very strict in this regard.

When Brigadier General Madnidorf entered the room, Song Biao asked Xue Changqing and others to stay away for the time being. He sat down with Brigadier General Madnidorf alone to talk in detail.

When the tea was served, Brigadier General Madnidorf didn't even take a sip of the tea, so he asked Song Biao: "Why are you back at this time?"

Song Biao sighed: "I have suffered a lot of casualties now, and I don't have enough manpower at all. I have come back to recruit new people in person. I also want to ask the brigadier general when he can transfer me back. I am currently being treated like a fool by you in Yujiayao." It is used by the regular army. As you, Brigadier General, know very well that our men and horses have not received formal training at all. If we really have to fight a tough battle, people like me will have to die on the battlefield, and maybe it will ruin the Russian army's major events."

Brigadier General Madnidoff did not dare to deny that he had indeed lied a little in order to promote this matter. Now that Song Biao's tribe had achieved two great achievements in a row, he himself was confused and did not know what was going on.

After thinking for a moment, Brigadier General Madnidorf and Song Biao said: "I contacted General Mishuchenko some time ago. He praised your Manchurian Infantry Regiment very much, and said that you also intend to continue fighting, and don't want you to Come on, it won't be easy for me to force you to come back to suppress the bandits."

Song Biao said: "You'd better help me and find a way to bring my team back to suppress the bandits. If the fight continues, it will be a large-scale battle. I really can't fight with my small strength and this little combat literacy. I'm not I'm afraid of Little Japan, but I tell the truth, luck can't be eaten for a living. I've had two big lucks in a row, but that doesn't mean I will always be so lucky."

Brigadier General Madnidoff chuckled and said: "It's too late to say this now. Besides, some things are not as simple as luck. In fact, during this period, I happened to deploy some troops to encircle and suppress the bandits in Tonghua and Hunjiang areas. Originally, I intend to transfer you here, and that was the original plan, but according to your current situation, I really can't move you. Even if I open my mouth, the Second Army and General Mishuchenko will definitely not agree."

Song Biao could only give a wry smile and said: "Then I need to ask the brigadier general to think of more ways. If I am transferred back to fight the bandits, don't worry. I dare not say it in other places, at least on the Tonghua line. If something happens, even if the Japanese army sends a regiment over, I can find a suitable place to fight with them."

Brigadier General Madnidov couldn't help but feel a little moved. He thought for a long time before saying: "Well, don't rush back these two days. I will discuss it with Commander-in-Chief Kuropatkin. Your matter will be left to General Mishuchenko alone."

I wrote an official letter to the Commander-in-Chief. I appreciate it very much. I especially speak highly of you personally. The Commander-in-Chief appreciates you very much. I will see if I can arrange for you to meet with the Commander-in-Chief. If you have any ideas, please feel free to contact me directly.

Your Excellency, the Commander-in-Chief, said it face to face. Now that a big battle is imminent, it would be very bad to transfer troops from here, and it is not convenient for me. Therefore, you still have to fight for many things on your own."

Song Biao could only nod his head and said: "Okay, let's do it this way."

He felt a little emotional in his heart. He estimated that he really had to make preparations for this matter. If his troops were really crippled in the Yujiayao area, he would have to find another way to save one.

After seeing Brigadier Madnidorf off, Song Biao thought in his mind that he had to find a way to transport some of the supplies back to Niujiapu so that Yang Tiesheng could continue to recruit a group of brothers there and build a new Hunjiang brigade.

It’s just...you have to think things through.

What if his side is disabled and Yang Tiesheng has a Hunjiang brigade in his hands and starts a new one?

Although Yang Tiesheng doesn't look like that kind of person, many things are really uncertain.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided to trust Yang Tiesheng and send a batch of supplies to Niujiabao, asking Yang Tiesheng to find a way to form another brigade of troops and stabilize the position as much as possible.

After thinking these things through, he secretly called Zhang Yahu and Xue Changqing over and told them to prepare to deploy some personnel from the transportation brigade to transport a thousand 30-year-old rifles and ammunition back to Niujiapu as quickly as possible.

Not only that, Song Biao also planned to transfer a Russian military officer from Kornilov who knew a little bit of Chinese to return to Niujiapu to serve as the chief instructor in Niujiapu to strengthen the formal training of the Hunjiang Brigade.

During the two days when he was waiting to meet with Kuropatkin, the commander-in-chief of the Russian Far Eastern Army, Song Biao was not idle. He had been taking care of these things and also walked around Shenyang to look at the price of food.

Nowadays, everything else in Shenyang City is not expensive, but the price of food is ridiculously expensive. Basically, there is a price but no market. In the past, a load of rice only cost more than ten oceans. If the price of a load of rice is at least 120 yuan,

Yuan, food prices have been soaring, but land prices have been plummeting.

Especially in areas such as Liaozhong, Liaoyang, Shenyang, Fushun and Haicheng, in the past, a piece of land could be sold for 50 dan of rice. Now, no matter how good the land is, it can only be sold for 3 dan of rice. This price is not only the case in Shenyang City, but also in Shenyang City.

It's the same everywhere. Every family, big and small, is eager to sell their land to escape famine. Who knows how long this war will last. Some people say that after this war is over, the land will belong to the Japanese and Russians.

Song Biao walked around the city of Shenyang and discovered a very outrageous business opportunity. If he could transport grain to Shenyang and surrounding areas and sell it at a high price in exchange for land deeds, when the Russo-Japanese War was over, he would have no idea what he was going to do.

I can buy 20,000 acres of land.

When Zhang Zuolin was the most powerful in the Northeast, he only had 60,000 pieces of land in his hands. At that time, he claimed to have a fortune of 60 million silver dollars.

Song Biao thought that if he could get this deal done and sell the 20,000 acres of land after the war, he would immediately be able to get 12 million silver dollars. Where could he find such a good deal?

Thinking of the huge profits involved, he had already made up his mind to earn a lot of money.

In addition to making huge profits from food and land prices, there are also many benefits in other areas. The Russians confiscated a lot of things in the Shenyang area. These things will have no use later. He wants to eat them at a low price.

You can also make a lot of money.

He could even bribe the Russians and ask the Russian army to grab a note for him, and then he could later sell it in ruble notes at a low price.

These days, whoever does good will suffer the consequences. Song Biao just wants to strengthen his own strength. After the end of the Russo-Japanese War, the Northeast is in chaos. Whoever has strength will be the king of the Northeast. Song Biao doesn't want to miss such a good opportunity.

After thinking about it clearly, Song Biao took advantage of the opportunity of staying in Shenyang for the past two days to have dinner with Major Turgenier several times, and then gave him a sum of rubles, asking him to help and introduce more Russian military friends to make a fortune together.

.

Major Turgenier was in charge of logistics at the Commander-in-Chief's Staff Department and knew the most people. He quickly introduced a group of friends to Song Biao. Song Biao was also generous and spread out more than half of the rubles in his hand.

While dealing with these Russian military friends, Song Biao unexpectedly heard two more interesting pieces of news.

One theory is that the former commander of Lushun, Stessel, who served as the commander-in-chief of the Russian army when the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded Beijing, robbed a large amount of jewelry, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings from the Forbidden City, which was said to be worth 800,000 taels of silver. This person took this batch of materials

He took it as his own, but he didn't dare to transport it back to China, so he kept it in a private residence in Harbin.

After Stessel led his army to surrender to the Japanese army, the Czar said that he would be tried for death. His wife was eager to sell these supplies in Harbin and wanted to exchange money to lobby other bureaucrats.

Another theory is that the Russian infantry regiment stationed at the palace in Shengjing was stealing things from the palace and kept selling things in the palace. Many of the buyers were even Japanese, because this matter is very ironic. There are rumors within the Russian army.

Extremely broad.

Therefore, it is a good thing to have many friends, as you can hear all kinds of secret news.

These two ridiculous things were very special. The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Song Biao kept these two things in mind and pondered them. He always felt that they were profitable. He always felt that his intuition was very sharp.

, I also like to follow my feelings.
