Section 6 The Battle of Hyland Bubbles

However, at this time, the Pingkou Army had already crossed Heilongjiang, and the Xiaoqi Camp took the lead and took the lead in breaking into Hailanpao.

The Russian army was not prepared at all. Most of them were burning, killing, plundering, stuffing gold and silver all over their skin, and they were unable to resist the oncoming cavalry camp. Of course, whether they were prepared or not, the result was the same. These bandits could not escape the annihilation.

Occasionally, I escaped outside with some luck, but was used as a target by the Third Regiment of Waiting Rabbits and died of dozens of bullets. In less than ten minutes, the battle ended. 198 Russian bandits were killed and 66 were captured. The captured people were tied up in a row and placed on the ground by the river. Behind them were tall and strong soldiers of the Pingkou Army. The 3,000 soldiers of the Knights, riding tall horses, were even more majestic than the Russians kneeling on the ground.

The people of Hailanpao were rescued, and more than 4,000 people were locked in a large grain drying farm. They didn't eat any food for a few days. Many people fell ill and fell ill. But I heard that they wanted to deal with the Russians, and all Hailanpao people insisted on coming to see what happened to the Russians killed these days.

Seeing the Russian devils killed in the sky, Hailan Pao's eyes turned red and they rushed forward. The troops responsible for maintaining order in the Third Regiment could not bear it and slowly retreated. Some ordinary people looked at it and took stones and soil and threw them over. They smashed them on the Russians. The troops maintaining order did not strictly carry out the task of maintaining order. Soon the people broke through the soldiers who maintained order, rushed forward, and smashed these Russian robbers to pieces.

After destroying the enemy invaded by Hailanpao, Zhao Gang worked tirelessly and led the cavalry camp to a rapid journey, breaking seven Russian military villages, Ust-Jiaskoi, Ignashino, Skibneva, Albazinskoi, Beydonnavskoi, Tolbzinno, and Orzinskoi. They were razed to the ground, with 6,000 tons of food, and 2,000 people disappeared without a trace. They fought until the city of Boli. The Russians barely blocked the cavalry camp's offensive with their not-so-firm fortress. They could not attack and the weather turned colder. Then Zhao Gang ordered the troops to return to the camp.

The Battle of Hailanpao is generally believed to be a big victory and Russia suffered a crushing defeat, but Zhao Gang, who participated in the whole process, does not think so.

In later memoirs, Zhao Gang wrote: "The "Sea" war is over. In this war, we started a small-scale encounter with our old neighbors. The ending is always there. The war needs to distinguish the relationship between victory and loss."

"In the face of endless debates among many people, we are called the winners of that war. This is wrong, but it also contains the right factors. It is undoubtedly wrong to call Russia the biggest loser. It also has the right meaning."

"My personal view of the victory or defeat of the war should be considered from his two perspectives. First, it is strategic attempts and plans. Secondly, it is the ability and manifestation of tactical combat. Here we will first refute the so-called "decision of casualties and victory or defeat" naval battles. The power we possessed in the Russian army could not resist at the time. However, in actual combat, we did not get the corresponding results.
