Preparing to Dig for Oil in the Black Province!
After receiving Yan Laoxi's 4 million yuan advance payment, Zhang Xuemin flew back to Shanhaiguan happily and ordered Wang Yizhe to transport the firearms to Shanxi. At the same time, he told Wang Yizhe that if Yan Laoxi didn't pay the rest of the money, he would pull the troops to Shanxi to scare him!
If scaring him didn't work, he would just f * ck him!
In short, he had to pay!
……
"Commander-in-chief, why are we going to the Black Province?”
After returning to Fengtian, Zhang Xuemin immediately called Wang Shuhan over and took the special train to the Black Province without stopping. The train whizzed past the tracks, making a clanging sound!
"Dig for oil!"
Wang Shuhan scratched his head and whispered,""What is oil?"
"The gasoline you used in those cars and the diesel used by the machines in the factory are all refined from oil!”Xuemin said helplessly.
During the period of the Republic of China, in order to earn huge profits from the Dragon Country, the three oil companies, Asia, Mobil, and Texco, only provided finished gasoline and diesel. They blocked and monopolized the refining of their raw oil and various refining technologies!
The earliest oil field developed in the country was the Yumen oil field in the northwest. It was not until 1939 that it was officially mined for the development of light and heavy industries, textile, construction, and other industries!
So it was normal for Wang Shuhan to not know!
Zhang Xuemin had rushed to the Black Province this time to extract oil fields. The Daqing oil field was located on the Songluo Plain. It was the largest oil field in the Dragon Country and one of the top ten oil fields in the world. The oil area was more than 6000 square kilometers!
As long as the Daqing oil field could be successfully exploited, the northeast's industry would definitely enter a stage of rapid development!
As such, Zhang Xuemin couldn't wait to rush to the Black Province. The system had given him a huge gift bag that included a large drilling machine, a large oil pump, a large crude oil splitter, and a complete set of refining equipment. The size of the equipment was too big, so it couldn't even be transported by train. He could only wait until he reached the Songluo Plains to exchange for it!
Through the window of the train, he could clearly see the scenery outside!
According to the agreement with the Dongyang Kingdom's Guandong Army, as long as the Northeast did not follow the Jinling City government, they could get control of the Fengtian to Xinjing section of the railway. Therefore, all the troops stationed along the railway were the Northeast Army!
For this reason, Zhang Xuemin had even specially established a railway garrison, which belonged to He Zhuguo's 4th army!
To exploit the Daqing oil field, there was currently no condition to lay an oil pipeline in the northeast. The transportation of crude oil or refined gasoline and diesel had to be carried out by train. The crucial railway had to be in his hands!
" The South Manchurian Railroad and the Middle East Road…I'll take care of them all…" Zhang Xuemin narrowed his eyes and muttered. At the same time, he had made up his mind that he had to take back control of all the railroads in the northeast!
At the end of the 19th century, in order to invade the northeast region and dominate the Far East, Russia used cheap labor and various equipment along the way to build the main line of the Middle East railway from Manchuria to Suifenhe in the northeast according to the 1896 "Russia-China Secret Agreement". At the same time, it was connected to the Siberian railway in Bear Country!
Later, according to the 1898 Luda Land Leasing Convention, the Middle East railway branch line from Hacheng to Liancheng through Chuncheng was built, forming a 2800-kilometer "T" shaped Middle East railway consisting of the main line and branch lines!
After the Russo-Japanese War of 1904, Mao Xiong was defeated. The Russians signed the "Port Myers Convention" with Dongyang, transferring most of the benefits and privileges they had gained in China to Dongyang. This included the control of the railway from Xinjing (Spring City) to Liancheng Port, which was renamed the South Manchurian Railroad!
Later, the people of Dongyang gradually built the Anfeng (Andong to Fengtian), Fushun (Fengtian to Fushun), and Niuzhuang (Dashiqiao to Yingkou) railroads!
Therefore, the northeast's railway, north of Spring City, was in the hands of the Bear Country's people, and the railway from Spring City was in the hands of the Dongyang Country's people!
Only the section from Fengtian to Spring City (New Capital) had just been handed over to the Northeast Army by the Guandong Army of Dongyang!
……
After the train arrived at New Capital, Zhang Xuemin immediately gathered the military governor Zhang Zuoxiang and the deputy general He Zhuguo. They held a military meeting to gather the troops!
"Commander-in-chief, aren't we going to the Black Province to dig for oil? Why did you stop at New Capital?"
Wang Shuhan asked in puzzlement!
"The railway ahead can't move…isn't it in the hands of our own people in the northeast?”Zhang Xuemin narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly. He wanted to make the first move on the Russians 'Zhongdong Road!
Zhang Zuoxiang and He Zhuguo also rushed over quickly!
He didn't even go to the provincial government. Zhang Xuemin immediately ordered the two men to bring him to the 4th division's base to observe the training and tactical coordination. At the same time, he ordered the troops to gather quickly!
"Commander-in-chief, why are you in such a hurry to gather the troops?”
Zhang Zuoxiang asked breathlessly as he rushed over. Since the last military and political meeting, he had been in a semi-retired state. He basically did not care about the matters of the provincial government or the 4th army!
However, according to the report, He Zhuguo had trained the 4th army well. Their combat strength had greatly increased, and they were completely different from the troops that had been idling around in the past!
Zhang Xuemin looked around, his eyes flashing with a cold light."The purpose of gathering troops is to recover Zhongdong Road with the fastest speed!”
