CHAPTER XXXVI THE BATTLE OF SANDEPU The Russian position in the third week of January this year presented a very long front. On the east it extended for many miles along the Sha-ho, so as to protect Fushun from flank attack. Going west it followed practically the river as far as the railway, which cut the centre of the Russian lines. A little west of the railway, at Lin-shin-pu, the Sha-ho, which is a small stream, takes a decided bend south-west, eventually joining the Tai-tze-ho. Leaving the Sha-ho at this bend the Russian lines struck across country to the Hun-ho, the large affluent of the Liao-ho, which after passing Mukden flows south and west. Crossing the Hun-ho the Russians had a position at Zifonti, their outposts extending north and west to the Liao-ho at Sinminting. Thus the Russian lines were in the shape of a bow, with Mukden behind and equidistant from the two ends. On the right or western flank were Mischenko and Kosagovsky with their cavalry. Between them and the railway was Grippenberg's Second Manchurian Army, with its headquarters at Zifonti; Kaulbars held the centre, and Linievitch the east. From Linievitch's or the First Manchurian Army the well-tried 1st Siberian Army Corps under Baron Stackelberg had been sent to strengthen Grippenberg's army, which consisted largely of European corps. At this period the force under General Kuropatkin's command was some 400,000 strong, and had about 2000 guns. All stores had been amply replenished, and the branch railway lines from Mukden to the Sha-ho were finished. In short, the Russian preparations for battle were complete, and the only deterrent to fighting was the hard weather. On the other hand, the position of the Japanese was extremely strong. They held no fewer than three...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Eye-Witness in Manchuria A few words by way of preface may possibly save the readers from misconception regarding the scope and nature of the following narrative. In the first place, I would say that the book is in no wise concerned either with the causes or with the possible consequences of the war between the empires of Russia and Japan. In it, so far as was possible, political questions of every kind have been left untouched. I have made no attempt to write a complete history of this great and as yet unfinished war, being of opinion that the time for any such attempt to be made, with any reasonable hope of success, is still distant. What I have endeavoured to set forth here is a simple record of personal experience gained during nine months spent with the Russian Army in Manchuria. Having followed and studied the campaign as a soldier, I have striven to give here a straightforward account of the many stirring events which came within my own actual experience; this without extenuation or disguise, and, assuredly, without malice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of In Patagonia and Great Plains, Michael Meyer's In Manchuria is a scintillating combination of memoir, contemporary reporting, and historical research, presenting a unique profile of China's legendary northeast territory. For three years, Meyer rented a home in the rice-farming community of Wasteland, hometown to his wife's family. Their personal saga mirrors the tremendous change most of rural China is undergoing, in the form of a privately held rice company that has built new roads, introduced organic farming, and constructed high-rise apartments into which farmers can move in exchange for their land rights. Once a commune, Wasteland is now a company town, a phenomenon happening across China that Meyer documents for the first time; indeed, not since Pearl Buck wrote The Good Earth has anyone brought rural China to life as Meyer has here. Amplifying the story of family and Wasteland, Meyer takes us on a journey across Manchuria's past, a history that explains much about contemporary China--from the fall of the last emperor to Japanese occupation and Communist victory. Through vivid local characters, Meyer illuminates the remnants of the imperial Willow Palisade, Russian and Japanese colonial cities and railways, and the POW camp into which a young American sergeant parachuted to free survivors of the Bataan Death March. In Manchuria is a rich and original chronicle of contemporary China and its people.
