Chapter 462 New Order


Chapter 462 New Order

In addition to the sailors of the Siberian Fleet, the garrison at Nagasaki mainly came from the Sakhalin Division.

George originally planned to eliminate the Sakhalin Division. Unexpectedly, this decision was opposed by almost everyone. Even Mikhail, who never cared about military affairs, believed that the Sakhalin Division was the most important. Reserved troops.

Compared with the Cossacks, Japanese soldiers fought with the same fearlessness of death. During the Battle of Goryeo, the Sakhalin Division was almost canceled several times. After replenishing its troops, it could regain its combat effectiveness in a short time. Even the Goryeo army could not do it.

Compared with the Cossacks, the cost of Japanese soldiers is very low. They can save a lot of fabric when making clothes. No one can cut off the Sakhalin division.

During the Goryeo Campaign, Japanese soldiers received almost no pay.

If the Sakhalin Division is retained, the salary must be paid, but even so, the salary of Japanese soldiers is much lower than that of the Cossacks.

Then keep it.

Not only stay, but also send the Sakhalin Division to garrison in Japan to let the Japanese know that those who follow the Russians will have meat to eat.

Following the British can only sell meat.

There is no harm without comparison. After the Russo-Japanese War, George became a royal general, all thanks to his colleagues in St. Petersburg.

The person responsible for building the wall next to Nagasaki happened to be the Southern Sakhalin Rifle Regiment led by Jin Ya.

For his outstanding performance in the Battle of Goryeo, Jinya was awarded the third-level Yuriev Medal.

The Yuriev Medal is divided into four levels. The first-level medal has a large ribbon and a badge on the right chest. It is only awarded to senior officers who have made major and outstanding contributions. After the war, only Peter and Brusinov were awarded This honor.

The second-level medal is a collar badge, the third-level medal is a chest badge, and the fourth-level medal can only be hung on the hilt of a saber.

Jin Ya was the only Japanese to receive a third-class medal during the Russo-Japanese War.

George fulfilled his promise. After the war, all Japanese soldiers of the Sakhalin Division transferred to Russian citizenship.

So Jin Ya always said to the Japanese soldiers who joined the Sakhalin Division in the later period: You have caught up with the good times, and you must cherish this status.

Without the reminder of gold teeth, Japanese soldiers will cherish their identity.

The current situation in Japan is so bad. Although winter has passed, people are starving to death every day. After the news that Nagasaki was going to build a wall, thousands of victims flocked to Nagasaki, hoping to Get a job.

The reward given by the Siberian Fleet was just to take care of the food, and not to mention the food.

This is not Peter's fault. There is plenty of food in Amur, and there is a bumper harvest this year.

Not letting workers eat enough was Gold Tooth’s suggestion.

If workers are not fed enough, they can maintain their enthusiasm for work and not think about what they have and what they don’t have.

Once full, the workers may demand wages. In order to prevent this from happening, Jinya suggested to Colin: Even if the Nagasaki warehouse is full of grain, he must still save money.

The people who understand the Japanese best are the Japanese.

It is said to be a wall, but in fact it is just a fence. The purpose of building this wall is not to prevent the Japanese from entering Nagasaki, but to test the obedience of the Japanese.

The Japanese workers who build the wall with the best performance will be given the opportunity to work in Nagasaki or even overseas.

Nagasaki is okay.

Working overseas is very attractive to Japanese people.

After the Meiji Restoration, Japan began to clamor to leave Asia and join Europe. After decades of clamoring, the concept of leaving Asia and joining Europe has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

For ordinary Japanese, it doesn’t matter whether they leave Japan or not, as long as they can leave Japan.

For ordinary Japanese, Japan, where people starve to death, is hell.

The Siberian Fleet employed approximately 5,000 Japanese workers.

5,000 people worked together, and the eight-kilometer fence was completed in just a few days.

Japanese workers were originally worried that they would lose their jobs after the project was completed, but they did not expect that as soon as this job ended, the next job would follow.

Nagasaki was bombarded by the Siberian fleet many times during the war, and all the outer forts were destroyed.

Peter did not plan to rebuild the fort, but the ruins had to be cleared.

Like Vladivostok, Nagasaki's urban planning is very chaotic. Next to the concession are shacks built by poor people, which is unsightly. Many areas need to be renovated, which also requires a lot of manpower.

The roads in Nagasaki also need to be re-paved. In the next few decades, the Siberian Fleet will use Nagasaki as its main base, at least one of them. Peter has high requirements for Nagasaki.

To transform Nagasaki, the cooperation of the Shiga family cannot be avoided.

The Shiga family is a large landowner in Nagasaki, and the land that the Siberian Fleet originally rented belonged to the Shiga family.

In order to win the cooperation of the Shiga family, Kassaf brought Ichiro Shiga into the Port Administration Department and made him the deputy director of the Port Administration Department to fully promote the transformation of Nagasaki.

Shiga Ichiro is a smart man.

Although Ichiro Shiga was reluctant to the fact that the Japanese government leased Nagasaki to the Siberian Fleet, no one cared about his feelings.

The deputy assigned by Kassav to Ichiro Shiga was Ryo Takayama, who retired after the war.

For his outstanding performance in the Battle of Goryeo, Gao Shanliang received the Yuriev Medal, Level 4.

Takayama Ryo has also become a Russian citizen, so although Takayama Ryo has retired, he always wears a sword with a medal hanging on it.

This sword is not a traditional Japanese sword; The iconic Chasik saber of the Cossacks.

When Shiga Ichiro was working, Takayama Ryo often stroked his saber and looked at Shiga Ichiro with a sinister look.

Shiga Ichiro was careful not to make any mistakes.

Otherwise Takayama Ryo would use this knife to chop off Shiga Ichiro’s head.

Compared with before, the military camp of the Siberian Fleet is now nearly ten times larger, and these lands all belong to the Shiga family.

Shiga Ichiro has been very agitated these days because some people in the Shiga family are not cooperating with the work of the Siberian Fleet. When Ichiro Shiga first became deputy director, the Shiga family still felt that they had support and could still dominate Nagasaki.

The Siberian Fleet can expropriate land, but the compensation should not be less. Since Ichiro Shiga serves in the port office, the standard should be higher.

Peter and Kasav were not going to pay.

The entire Nagasaki is already a concession of the Siberian Fleet. Do you still have to pay to build military camps for the officers and soldiers of the Siberian Fleet?

What an international joke!

Shiga Ichiro had to hold a family meeting to unify his thoughts.

"Even if the king wants to expropriate land, compensation must be given. The Russians will always be reasonable!"

Shiga Tomima, Shiga's uncle, was filled with indignation.

“Yes, yes, Russians also have to follow rules——”

“This is Nagasaki, the Shiga family’s Nagasaki——”

“ Ichiro, don’t forget that you are from the Shiga family!”

Shiga Ichiro's uncles and brothers all echoed.

"If you want to reason with the Russians, then go ahead!"

Ichiro Shiga was exhausted mentally and physically.

The whole world knows that Grand Duke Yuriev is a barbarian, and he can lead what kind of soldiers he wants. Uncles and brothers like Ichiro Shiga probably thought that Ichiro Shiga, the deputy director, was in charge Qi is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.

Yesterday Ichiro Shiga went to the Fleet Headquarters to do something. Because the registration took too long, he was reprimanded by the guards.

Shiga Ichiro is very innocent, is it wrong to have neat fonts?

Yes.

Because we didn’t win on the battlefield, as a Japanese, living is wrong.

The guards at the headquarters will not look at Ichiro Shiga differently just because he is the deputy director of the Port Affairs Department.

“You are the deputy director, you should go!”

Tomima Shiga doesn't seem to care about his nephew's situation.

Shiga Ichiro did remember that a few days ago, Kanega's adjutant led people to break into Shiga Tomima's house and evacuated almost all of Shiga Tomima's house for 100 yen. Even Shiga Tomima was hanging in the study. All the calligraphy and paintings that he regarded as treasures were taken away. Shiga Tomima didn't dare to fart at that time.

In other words, Jinya's adjutant was a Cossack, and he didn't like the big face of Shiga Tomima's daughter. Otherwise, the Shiga family's bloodline could probably be improved.

"Because I am the deputy director, we can be notified in advance, giving us time to prepare, otherwise our family will end up like the Heyuan family."

Shiga Ichiro The words are serious and the heart is deep.

In addition to the Shiga family, there are many large families in Nagasaki.

A few days ago, the Heyuan family was ransacked by the Siberian fleet for hiding criminals, and all their property was confiscated. The men went to work on the construction site, and the women worked as waitresses in clubs.

The so-called hiding criminals is just an excuse.

The real reason why the Heyuan family was confiscated was because they refused to sell the family collection to the Siberian Fleet.

Although 100 yen is not much, it is like this when the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed.

Either cooperate or die.

“Nagasaki is so big, why is it the Shiga family?”

Shiga Ichiro’s younger brother Shiga Jiro is full of grief and indignation.

Shiga Ichiro was silent for a long time and said sadly: "Because our family owns the best land in Nagasaki, and the land with the best location should belong to the most powerful person——"

Kassaf didn't care about the expansion of the military camp. He didn't like the British concession no matter what, and he hoped to drive the British away.

At the very least, the British Concession must be abolished. The British can do business in Nagasaki, but the management rights must be taken back.

The British definitely disagree.

Kasav Heart, so the refugees and beggars in Nagasaki were all driven to the British Concession, causing the British Concession to be overcrowded and overwhelmed.

This made Blake Beatty, the British Minister in Nagasaki, very dissatisfied, so the British Concession also began to expel refugees and beggars.

Kasav went to Black in person and asked Black to take care of his people and not cause trouble to the port authority.

"These people are your responsibility, don't force them on me."

Blake disagreed. People are brought here by others, and I don't want them.

"Blake, you represented the British Empire in Nagasaki, so you must always be careful about the image of the British Empire."

Kasav not only asked Blake to be responsible for the refugees and beggars, but also demanded that the British Concession Be careful of the impact and don't damage the reputation of the great powers in Nagasaki.

“Mind your own business!”

Blake is tough and it is not your Russians' turn to defend the reputation of the great powers.

Kasav is not angry.

That night, a group of robbers broke into the British Concession, robbed it in the street and then set it on fire.

Subsequently, a firefight broke out between the robbers and the British Concession police.

What Blake never expected was that the British Concession Police never beat up the robbers.
