In later Chinese literature or street rumors, the Russians were dubbed as fighting nations, but at the beginning of the twentieth century, the Belarusian refugees who lived here to make a living were poor people who could trample on bullying by any force. Of course, the poor people must also have their hateful things. These Russians dare to do almost anything to make money. They not only involve the traditional crimes such as theft, drug trafficking, fraud, robbery, but also open underground casinos and brothels in the concession. The Belarussian nobles who colluded with the upper levels of the world even engaged in the trade of arms and arms. With a Caucasian face, Russian refugees quickly became a special one among the many cancers on the beach.

In order to maintain a decent life, the fallen Russian and Russian aristocrats did not hesitate to sell the last ancestral treasure, but when the money was exhausted, these former heavenly nobles fell faster than meteors. Especially those women with noble identities, many of whom have become communicative flowers on the beach. They shuttle between many politicians and businessmen day and night to maintain their extravagant life by selling their hue.

The Makarenko family is lucky. Colonel Normanrov has accumulated a lot of wealth, enough to allow them to continue to live a leisurely life of the superior in Shanghai, a place where material desires flow.

Norman Rove relied on the introduction of "friends". Of course, the introduction fee was indispensable. On the four roads (Fuzhou Road) in the public concession, Donghuali, close to the Maijiayuan, a twenty-two gold roof was used to build a single building. Shikumen house.

At that time, this area was the place with the strongest cultural atmosphere in Shanghai. When it came out of Nongtang, it went north along Shandong Road. It was the media newspapers such as "Shenzhen", "New Declaration", "Current News", and "East Asian News". Go east to Henan intersection and then turn south, is the famous Chinese Commercial Press, and diagonally opposite the Henan intersection is the General Patrol House of the Ministry of Industry, security is absolutely safe.

Twenty-two golds were actually higher according to the market price of Shanghai at that time, but the old colonel had real gold and silver in his pocket, and he didn't care about this little money at all.

However, Colonel Normanrov was old after all. His previous defeat and exile life severely damaged his self-confidence. This once savage Russian soldier has completely lost the courage and motivation to continue his struggle. But because of this, he didn't fall into the trap of professional scam gangs like his rich compatriots. At the time on the beach, I didn't know how many prominent Russian aristocrats were able to participate in speculative trading. In the end, he was deceived into bed and sleep on the streets, and his wife, son and daughter became prostitutes and thieves.

Colonel Normanrov was not interested in all business and financial investments, and he often took out some money to help these poor Belarusian friends. After one or two visits, the colonel was established in the Belarusian immigrant group on the beach. Has a pretty good reputation. So when the Ministry of Industry and Engineering was preparing to recruit soldiers from the Belarusian immigrants, they immediately saw Normanrov's military background and influence.

The representative of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce visited the gate and hoped that the colonel would come out again to help the Ministry of Industry and Recruitment recruit and form this Russian army. After thinking about it repeatedly, Colonel Normanrov was forced to live on the other’s site, and it was necessary to pinch his tail, so he reluctantly agreed to the request made by the Ministry of Industry, but he was unwilling to serve as the commander of this unit. Instead, he recommended Cossack Lieutenant General Greboff to serve as the first commander. He is willing to participate in the formation of this team as a military consultant.

At that time, the most powerful fighting force among the Belarusian refugees belonged to the group of Cossacks. These people were fierce in the civil war and owed a lot of blood to the red military and civilians. So unless the Soviet government was overthrown, these people might not be able to return for a lifetime. It's hometown Ukraine.

The Ministry of Industry and Engineering recruited the first 300 soldiers in the Belarusian ethnic group, all of whom were Cossack soldiers who fled along with the fleet from the Far East. They all received rigorous military training and possessed quite powerful individual combat capabilities. In this huge Far East city, the British taught them how to become a qualified soldier.

Forced to leave the country and come to this foreign country with very different language habits, the Cossacks gave up their tradition of free indulgence and began to bow their heads and learn how to obey. The Russian team has always been the most combative and obedient force in the IWC. They never hesitated to execute orders. Even if their superiors let them shoot at their compatriots, they would never wrinkle when they pulled the trigger. brow.

Because of this high degree of obedience, they also owed a lot of blood debt to the Chinese people. The most recent one was two years ago, when the Russian team was responsible for guarding the famous national army "Lonely Barracks", because the concession authorities were worried about these national soldiers. The daily flag-raising ceremony will give the Japanese army a chance to enter the public concession, so it ordered the Russian team to stop the flag-raising activities of the lone army barracks. The lone army barracks will of course not easily retreat, resulting in a fierce conflict between the two sides, resulting in 41 Four Chinese soldiers were injured and four people were unfortunately killed in the conflict.

Although this incident eventually caused an uproar, the Russian team's firm attitude in the incident has increased the appreciation and trust of the concession authorities.

After graduating from high school in Makarenko, through the relationship of the old Normanrov, he entered the Russian team of the World Business Group. At the beginning, he was only a military officer trainee. The head supervisor took care of this rich and back-office young man. Makalenko grew up in a military camp. With the usual teachings of old Norman Rove, he had internal rules for the army. Very familiar with the affairs, and soon established his own authority in the company where he was.

Slav is a nation that highly admires authority. The army is more strict with ranks. Officers are like parents, and they control all the activities of soldiers. Even the Soviet Russian Red Army at this time still retains this tradition of the Russian era (history The above situation will not be broken until the middle and late World War II, mainly because the old army of officers lost their lives in the war. Many of the commanders promoted on the fire line are from lower-level officers and even soldiers, and do not understand these so-called "traditions.") .

A year after enlisting in the army, Makalenko became a second lieutenant platoon leader, and since then began his long and legendary military career.

"After Jing'an Temple, check the equipment for the last time." Makarenko shouted loudly.

"Yes, Mr. Ensign." The soldiers responded in unison, and then began to bow their heads to sort out their equipment and weapons.

After years of painstaking operation, the IWC is very close to the regular army at this time, especially the standing Russian troops. Since the establishment of the army, they have never stopped their military training, although when they expanded their troops two years ago A batch of new blood has been collected, but the backbone of the Belarusian veterans is still there. Makarenko asked if the Russian company would not lose to the military of any Asian country, even those powerful Japanese troops, as long as they were prepared enough.

Emperor-Russian immigrants like him have quite the same views on the Japanese. First of all, as loyal subjects of His Majesty the Russian Tsar, they should be full of hatred against the Japanese Empire. These shameless dwarf monkeys took the Korean peninsula and Eastern three provinces (Tsarist Russia really thought this way, so the logic of the robbers is not understandable by people.).

After experiencing the Russian Civil War, they once fought side by side with the Japanese Intervention Army and jointly fought against the red regime. The two sides should seem to be an ally relationship, but no Russians would see it like this. Belarusian officers knew these Japanese very well. The attempt of this group of dwarves is purely to want to robbery, because they will do it in the same way. The encounter of Russian refugees in Wonsan Port, North Korea, has completely exposed the hypocrisy of the Japanese government.

After arriving in Shanghai after thousands of hardships, the Belarusian refugees have not escaped their misery. The immigrants and businessmen are definitely indispensable to the crowds. It should be said that these Belarussians are the most hated Japanese group among Shanghai foreign immigrants, second only to the group of Koreans in exile in Shanghai.

"I didn't expect the morale of these Belarusian soldiers to be high." Lieutenant Fox von Help turned his head and said to the radio operator.

"Sir, if the black shark calls, the fish is on the way." The radio operator apparently did not hear the captain's ridicule. He covered the radio headset on his head and reported to the sir.

"Understood, it's time to pass on the order." Help turned from the commander's machine gun tower and looked at the armored team behind him with pride.
