There were other powerful people who ran over with Lao Shentou, but after hearing Mr. Long's arrogant words, several of them felt a little unconvinced.
Why are you still unwilling when we are rushing to give our children to you? Are you looking down on our men outside the customs by being pretentious? Are your soldiers the only ones that are awesome...
Of course, we admit that your soldiers are powerful, but we are not inferior either. Isn’t it because we are not as well equipped as you? As for being so arrogant?
The old ginseng head is a mature man. He has already guessed the thoughts of those people with weird faces. He couldn't help but sneered in his heart, "These two hundred and fifty people, you don't have such a small mind and you still want to hang out? You will be eliminated sooner or later..."
Age in life is a fortune. No one will tell you many experiences in vain, you can only understand them yourself.
If Mr. Long smiles brightly and makes various promises to Lao Shentou today, then Lao Shentou will not dare to bring out the elites, because there is nothing free in the world, and there are many traps behind the smiling face.
I never expected that General Xiang actually said that he wanted to train his troops, and even trained his troops to death! This time Lao Shentou made the right bet.
It takes a lot of manpower and material resources to train troops, select excellent officers to teach them, and spend money to buy equipment and arm these people. Not to mention that the money for bullets alone is not a small amount.
Since people are willing to put in the effort to train you, they are not using you as cannon fodder. This is the same as doing business. The bigger the investment, the more hope that the return will be bigger and longer.
You can't just invest a lot of money into a one-time deal, right? Therefore, General Xiang's attitude is truly cooperative. It's a pity that many short-sighted people have not figured it out until now.
Forget it, Lao Shentou has no obligation to explain. Now the eastern sky has turned white, the battlefield is being cleaned faster and faster, breakfast has been prepared, many soldiers and civilians have begun to collect wood, and bonfires have been lit in the wilderness.
Although the battle is over, there is still a lot of follow-up work. Statistics of casualties on both sides on the battlefield, identity verification of the dead, treatment of the injured, detention of prisoners, and burial of corpses are all very important tasks.
After preliminary statistics, the total strength of the Russian army in this battle was 1,200, not the 1,500 described in the previous intelligence. Among them, 400 were killed, 600 were captured, and another 200 were not found. It should be a successful breakout.
In comparison, the volunteer army's casualty rate was smaller, with 300 killed and 200 seriously injured. In addition, more than 100 people in Sandaogou were affected and lost their lives.
Mr. Long was pacing beside the campfire with a livid face, surrounded by mid-level commanders such as Ye Qiu. "There is something wrong with this battle. It is too problematic! The casualties should not be so large. We have the advantage in weapons and the number of soldiers." , and it was a sneak attack, and three hundred people died in battle? A piece of tooth was chipped in the first battle, how can we fight in the future? "
"Hold a summary meeting, and immediately hold a summary meeting with the squad, platoon, and company as a unit. Everyone has to speak to summarize experiences and lessons. The class meeting minutes are sent to the platoon leader for summary, and the platoon leader's records are sent to the company commander for summary, and finally they are handed over to me. On my hands..."
"Everyone must remember that our ultimate goal is very clear to establish an independent country in the Far East. The war will last for a very long time. It may be three years, five years, or ten years..."
"For such a long time, every soldier has been our treasure. We must not die in vain...Three hundred people! Three hundred lives were lost here. It's hateful! Damn it!"
Rather than reprimanding his subordinates, Master Long was reprimanding himself. The Battle of Sandaogou actually completely deviated from Xiao Letian's plan.
In the Prime Minister's plan, the volunteers should be broken into pieces as soon as possible after landing, and they should move in company and platoon units among the white mountains and black waters. The battle should be based on sneak attacks, ambushes, and cold shots. One shot will change the place, and small victories will be accumulated. This is the way to win.
Use continuous small victories to win over the people, and finally gain the support of the majority of indigenous people, and then launch a large-scale campaign when the time is right.
Long Ye can understand the prime minister's thinking, but when it comes to the actual implementation process, he will subconsciously bring in some of his own emotions, and this self-emotion is also catered to by many mid-level officers.
Especially the Japanese samurai, they urgently need a brilliant victory. Their national instinct is to seek quick success and instant benefit, and to be quick and violent.
Long Ye felt the emotions of the Japanese. He knew that the Japanese would not give up until there was a real bloody battle, so the Battle of Sandaogou broke out under the combined effect of various factors.
A bonfire was lit in the wilderness, and a class of ten people sat around the bonfire to begin the post-war summary meeting. Japan in this era still admires Chinese culture, so Chinese characters and Chinese are the most important foreign languages for Japanese people.
Sixty percent of the warriors in the volunteer army can speak some simple Chinese. As for communicating in Chinese characters, there is no problem. Even the wild warriors can write some basic Chinese characters.
The aboriginal people in the Far East really couldn't understand why these soldiers were so strange. They didn't rest or eat quickly after the bloody battle, but they actually held a meeting as soon as possible.
"What kind of army is this? Everyone takes out a small notebook to write and draw. Are they all literate?"
"This is impossible! I have never heard of a soldier who can read. Aren't all those who can read and digit become officials?"
What made them even more confused was that although it was a victory, everyone in the meeting looked as if they were disappointed and their expressions were unusually solemn.
The reason is simple. This bloody battle completely shocked the hearts of the warriors. The Russian soldiers who were as violent as war bears last night taught them a very important lesson.
All the previous arrogance was dispelled, and they finally knew that they were not invincible, and that there really was a more fanatical fighting spirit in this world than Bushido.
Even though he was stabbed several times, he could still fight hard. He could grasp the blade with his bare hands and not feel the pain. His strong physique could blow the head of a weakling with one punch. What was even more terrifying was the smell of blood that erupted in their war.
Ye Qiu walked up to a bonfire and looked at the silent crowd and said coldly, "We actually won very reluctantly last night, because the real elite of the Russian army only has more than 200 people, and the rest are natives of the Tunguska area and are Cossacks." Servant Army!"
"We have just interrogated. Vladivostok dispatched three hundred Cossacks here to attack the Qingdao gold mine. If those three hundred people were still there, even if we won last night, how much blood would be shed? Have you ever thought about..."
"Now, open your hearts, tell your true thoughts, and abandon everything in the past! The war in the future will be so complicated that you can hardly imagine..."
