Khabarovsk is located in Dong'an, the intersection of Heilongjiang and Wusuli River. It was originally China's sacred territory, but Tsarist Russia passed the Beijing Treaty in 1860 and forcibly occupied more than 40 square kilometers of land in Dong'an, Ussuri River. Khabarov also fell to Russia. hands, and changed to Khabarovsk.

Due to its important geographical location, it quickly became an important node on the Trans-Siberian Railway. At the same time, it also functions as a river port, and its economy and trade are also very developed. It has become the capital of the Russian Far East.

Standing on the side of China, looking at Khabarovsk shrouded in mist, Zhang Tinglan felt a pain like a knife in his heart. It is a shame for the country and the nation that a pearl of China falls into the hands of the Russians. !

"Mr. Zhang, aren't you thinking about bringing Boli back now?" Xiong Mengyuan said with a smile from the side, "That would be great, what a beautiful place, how can I leave it to the Russians to spoil it!"

"Of course we can't move the land back, but we can grab it." Zhang Tinglan showed a firm look in his eyes, and his fists were already clenched.

"That's right, given the rot and absurdity of Russia right now, they won't be able to last long. As long as we develop, we will still have a chance. As the saying goes, in 30 years in Hedong, in 30 years in Hexi, the general trend will turn to us sooner or later!"

Chen Qiming also said angrily that he and Xiong Mengyuan were originally in charge of the arsenal in Jilin, but there was a big gap in the machinery and equipment, and the production work was not going well. , and everything that Fengjun needs can be transported in a steady stream, and quickly enriched into the factory.

But when they actually got here, they didn't think about those machines, but walked to the riverside, and there was ice a few meters behind their feet.If you walk through here, you will be able to reach Khabarovsk. The two places are so close, yet so close to each other. The pain is hard to describe, just like claws scratching one's heart.

"Don't think too much, keep an eye on the deal in front of you, don't let the Russians really deceive us with some scraps of iron, as for other things, we will talk about it later!"

Zhang Tinglan has already noticed a sled team appearing on the opposite side.The Russians have already come to trade, and they have to be prepared on their own side.This is the first time for the ice transportation line. Both Zhang Tinglan and Russia attach great importance to it. The Governor of the Far East even personally intervened.The smuggling network in Russia is also fully operational to ensure that the most needed things in the Northeast are delivered.Get the most valuable things from the Far East.

And the opening of the ice transportation line.It means that Zhang Tinglan directly deals with the dignitaries in Russia, and can bypass Horvath and avoid the Middle East Road.In addition, they can avoid that Jew Fred. Although they have already cooperated with each other tacitly, Zhang Tinglan will not fully trust them.After all, it is not my race, so its heart must be different!

It can be said that this is a painstaking transaction. The preparations began a month or two ago, and now it is finally officially opened.Zhang Tinglan couldn't help feeling a little nervous.The soldiers and technicians present, as well as the porters, were all ready.

The Russians finally rushed over, and the two sides struck up a conversation. The person in charge of Tsarist Russia was a colonel named Krychkov. This guy was no smaller than Horvath, and he walked around like a big bear. In front of Zhang Tinglan.

"Chinese, we have shipped everything over, and our business has begun!"

"Don't worry, the Chinese are always warm and hospitable. It's such a cold weather and it's late at night. Everyone has worked hard. Let's have a glass of wine!"

As soon as he heard the word wine, Krychkov's eyes lit up. As a Russian, there is no such thing as a bad wine, especially since this period of time, Russia has become more and more difficult, and the supply is seriously insufficient If you want to drink, you can only go to the black market to buy some low-quality goods that have been blended. Krychkov, a big bear, suffers from the torture of alcohol bugs every day, so when he hears that there is wine to drink, he will order it without hesitation. nodded.

Zhang Tinglan took him to a small stove with a hot water pot on it. In addition to the boiling hot water, there were several wine bottles in the pot.Krychkov's eyes immediately lit up. Just looking at the bottle is enough to prove that this is a very good wine.

Before Zhang Tinglan could make a move, he stretched out his big furry paws, picked up a bottle of vodka, uncorked the bottle, and a strong aroma of wine wafted out.Krychkov just smelled the wine, as if he was about to get drunk, he opened his mouth wide, and poured wine into it frantically, half of the bottle had already entered his stomach in a blink of an eye.

Zhang Tinglan and the others were all dumbfounded by this way of drinking. This is strong vodka, not cola. He let out a loud belch, and a bewildered look appeared on his face.

"Good wine, really good wine, so happy!"

Zhang Tinglan also smiled secretly at the side, as the saying goes, as long as you like it, Zhang Tinglan said with a smile: "Mr. Colonel, I also prepared some shochu, and let your soldiers drink a couple of sips to warm up. Let's go immediately Just trade!"

"No problem!" Krychkov's temper was surprisingly good with good wine to open the way. Zhang Tinglan asked his men to send a bottle of soju to each sled. Grab it.

After they enjoyed the wine, the transaction between the two sides also started. This time Krychkov mainly shipped rifles, all of which were about [-]% new Mosin Nagan rifles. This kind of gun is already the main equipment of the Feng army. Yes, he brought a total of [-] rods.

According to the agreement between the two parties, the trading method was mainly barter. Zhang Tinglan and the others prepared a large amount of food, wine, cotton clothes, riding boots and other things, all of which were most urgently needed in Russia.

The Russians brought the rifles over, and Fengjun handed over the food to them. Although Krychkov was dazed by alcohol, he was still very conscientious. He checked the food carefully and opened a can of meat himself. After reading it, he was very satisfied and gave Zhang Tinglan a thumbs up.

"Chinese, you are very honest. I am very satisfied with the quality of the goods. Compared with those black market merchants who have no conscience, it is much better. I will report to the Governor. There should be more direct transactions between us, so that those Merchants are going to die!"

Zhang Tinglan also sneered in his heart, this big Russian guy probably didn't know that most of the low-quality goods in the Russian black market flowed out of Zhang Tinglan's hands.

Of course, Zhang Tinglan was also happy to create such an impression for them, so she said with a smile: "You are soldiers, and we are soldiers too. What soldiers pay attention to is real, there is nothing false, and things must be genuine!"

Listening to Zhang Tinglan's words, Xiong Mengyuan and Chen Qiming on the side even laughed out loud. This guy felt that his skin was thick enough to be able to speak the truth.The price of the Russians' [-]% new rifles has been reduced to the level of [-] oceans. As for the price of food, it has been tripled based on the market price in the three northeastern provinces, and the price of wine has been raised by as much as five times. class, the price is even higher.

If this can be regarded as genuine, then the black market merchants really don't know how much they will earn.

"To reward your sincerity, I want you to see something new."

The Krychkov guy showed a smug smile. He let some sleds drive over, then lifted a wooden box from above, and opened it.

"Chinese, are you interested in this weapon?"

Zhang Tinglan glanced at it, and saw something like a gun barrel inside, but it was much smaller than a cannon. A quick thought flashed in Zhang Tinglan's head, and he knew what it was, it should be a mortar.

Krychkov took the mortar out of the box with ease, assembled it, and placed it in front of Zhang Tinglan. He said with a smile: "This is a 91mm projectile mortar. It weighs only It weighs 48 kilograms and can fire a projectile of 500 kilograms. The maximum range is [-] meters. It is a pretty good weapon. It has been verified on the European battlefield. Many Germans died in the hands of this weapon! "

The big bear kept bragging about his own things, of course Zhang Tinglan would not be fooled by him, the mortar is indeed a very useful weapon, and it is cheap, easy to manufacture, dexterous and light.Zhang Tinglan also had plans for a long time ago, and Fengjun also wanted to produce a large number of weapons, but Zhang Tinglan didn't know much about weapons, and didn't know the specific size, so he couldn't let the arsenal produce finished products immediately, he had to let them explore slowly.

Now that the finished product is available, it seems to be much easier, so Zhang Tinglan is also very satisfied with these mortars. Xiong Mengyuan is far more familiar with weapons than Zhang Tinglan. Immediately, his eyes lighted up, and he already had plans to imitate and improve.

In addition to the mortar, Krychkov brought four 09mm mountain guns of the 76 model. The maximum range of this kind of mountain guns has reached more than 500 meters, and it is also a very good one in the Russian Army. artillery.

Zhang Tinglan has been worrying about the artillery of the Fengjun. The Japanese [-]-type mountain artillery is too powerful. After several battles, the Krupp artillery purchased before World War I has problems to varying degrees. The current situation is that the artillery appears. A serious gap was opened, and the combat effectiveness of Fengjun's artillery was worrying.

Cannon is the god of war. Without powerful artillery, how can the Feng army compete with the Japanese? Therefore, the active equipment that Zhang Tinglan most wants to get from Russia is artillery. Now Krychkov sent two kinds at once. Zhang Tinglan How can we not be ecstatic.

"Mr. Colonel, I am very satisfied with the equipment you sent, but there is only such a small amount, but it is far from enough!"

"This is just the beginning. As long as we cooperate happily, weapons will continue to flow." (To be continued...)
