Chapter 20 Cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party (1)

The plane slowly stopped on the runway, Zhou Enlai hurried up to meet it, only to see the hatch wide open, and the first to come out was not a member of the delegation, but a middle-aged man with a strong figure. Glancing at the middle-aged man who was walking down the gangway first, Bao Man and the others standing behind Zhuo Fei unconsciously put their index fingers on the trigger of the assault rifle, and Bao Man stepped forward and whispered to Zhuo Fei's ear, "Boss, this is a soldier, I can smell him." ”

Zhuo Fei shook his head indifferently, "It's okay, these people are here to talk in Chongqing, and they will inevitably bring their guards with them." We are neutral parties, and no matter what happens to this meeting, neither side of them will do anything to us. Zhuo Fei spoke so hard, the members of the delegation in the cabin had already walked out of the cabin along the gangway, and Zhuo Fei saw the ** two people walking in the middle at a glance.

Zhou Enlai was talking to ** and others in a low voice, and Zhuo Fei also knew that it was obviously not appropriate for him to lean on at this time, so he stood patiently in place. "Chairman, let me introduce to you, this is Zhuo Fei, the boss of the umbrella company, and he facilitated this meeting between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party." After a brief conversation, Zhou Enlai took the delegation members away from the runway and introduced them to Zhuo Fei, who had been standing quietly outside the runway.

In order to welcome the arrival of the CCP delegation, Chiang Kai-shek specially sent his secretary Chen Bui to the airport on his behalf, but he didn't want Zhou Enlai to take the lead in introducing ** and others to a strange young man, and Chen Bui was also very cooperative to move his body to the side, deliberately highlighting Zhuo Fei in the sight of ** and others. Chen Bui is known as a man of courage in the national government, ** and others thought that Zhou Enlai would introduce Chen Bui to himself first, but no one thought that Zhou Enlai introduced a young man first, which had to make ** and others begin to face up to the resolute young man in front of them.

"Hello chiefs, welcome to Chongqing, I'm Zhuo Fei." According to the habit of being received by the chief in later generations, Zhuo Fei saluted ** and others one by one, and reported his name loudly. "Welcome all the leaders to Chongqing, entrusted by the chairman, our umbrella company will be responsible for the security affairs of the leaders during the talks between the two sides." As soon as Zhuo Fei's words fell, Bowman gestured into the shadows in the distance, and when the motor roared, more than a dozen cars painted black sped away.

After the members of the delegation briefly greeted Chen Bui, they left the airport in a car according to Zhuo Fei's arrangement and arrangement. "Enlai, who is this Zhuo Fei? Why did Chen Bui, the courage of the Kuomintang, let him just now? Mao Zedong, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, was very puzzled and asked Zhou Enlai, who was in the same car with him. In fact, what Mao Zedong wanted to ask most was those fully armed and masked guards, looking at the figures and movements of those guards, they were definitely the elite of the elite.

"Chairman, in fact, I have only met Zhuo Fei a few times, and according to the information I have, this Zhuo Fei is very trusted by the chairman. But the strange thing is that Zhuo Fei is not from the Nationalist Government, and he has his own guards, which are the same people who are protecting us now. In the course of our talks, they will be responsible not only for our security, but also for the security of the entire chairman's residence. ”

Zhou Enlai's answer made Mao Zedong even more puzzled, looking at the age and accent of this Zhuo Fei, it is impossible for him to be Chiang Kai-shek's relatives, and it is even more impossible for him to be Chiang Kai-shek's illegitimate son or something, but why does Chiang Kai-shek trust a hairy boy so much? In order to facilitate the talks, Chiang Kai-shek specially put the place of the meeting in his official residence, and the residence arranged for ** and others was another villa not far from the official residence of the chairman of the National People's Committee.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the chairman of the committee will have something to do with this, please rest for the time being, and the talks will start tomorrow." ** When people got off the bus, there were already service personnel wearing the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army who came to help with luggage and items, in order not to arouse the suspicion of the CCP delegation, all the service personnel here are the staff of the Eighth Route Army communication station in Chongqing. Knowing that this was Zhuo Fei's special arrangement, Mao Zedong said with a smile, "It seems that this little friend of ours still sympathizes with and even supports our party, which is fine, and it can save a lot of trouble." ”

In front of the staff, Zhou Enlai had no way to tell the members of the delegation what he had mastered, so he could only wait for everyone to settle down according to the arrangement, and then Zhou Enlai gathered all the members of the delegation together. "I'll give you some information about the content of this meeting first, so that you can have a bottom in your heart." Zhou Enlai took out a stack of documents and sent them to everyone, which was the ultimate plan he sketched out according to his own memories.

"This so-called ultimate plan is the main content of this meeting, and the chairman of the committee is determined to cooperate with our CCP this time, so I hope that everyone had better understand this ultimate plan before the meeting so that they can have a bottom in their hearts." The room was filled with the sound of flipping papers, and no one spoke, for everyone was caught in all their minds and attention by the so-called ultimate plan.

"God, this plan is too bold, not only to completely drive the Japanese army out of China, but also to occupy the whole of South Asia and even expand its power to Australia." The first to speak was Zhu De, as the commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, the pressure on Zhu De's shoulders was obviously the biggest in this room. After carefully reading the plan that Zhou Enlai came up with, Zhu De's first impression was that he was bold, and the second impression was that it was impossible to realize, because the Japanese army was not so easy to drive out of China.

"Don't jump to conclusions first, listen to what Enlai has to say, look at the meaning, Lao Jiang must have organized people to discuss this plan." Few of those who did it had hope for the ultimate plan, but Mao Zedong had to listen to Zhou Enlai's explanation first.

"When I first saw this plan, I couldn't believe it like everyone else, not to mention that the maker of this plan was that Zhuo Fei. However, after I participated in the discussion of this plan twice in a row, I realized that the plan had already reached the actual stage. Zhuo Fei's Umbrella Company has opened up rail traffic between Burma and the southwestern border, more than 100 tons of supplies are being sent into the country every day at the port of Yangon, and without our knowledge, the Umbrella Company is building a Jewish force of more than 5,000 men. ”

The Jews were not accepted by Europe, and Zhuo Fei seized this opportunity to lobby the German government to open the door for him, and up to now, more than 170,000 Jews have been transported to China by umbrella companies. The Nationalist government designated the Ruili area near the border as a temporary residence for Jews, and once the Japanese army attacked Burma and tried to attack the southwest through Burma, the Jewish troops formed by the Umbrella Company would actively resist and enter Burma to engage the Japanese army in a full-scale battle. ”

"But even so, this umbrella company can only protect the southwest from being invaded by the Japanese army, and it doesn't do much help to other battlefields in China?" Jude continued to ask his own questions, and the questions he was asking now were exactly what he cared about.

Of course, it helps, because the Jews who moved from Europe from the Umbrella Company are not all old and weak, women and children, and at least half of the hundreds of thousands of Jews are skilled workers and technicians, as well as some scientists and engineers. At present, the umbrella company is using the Ruili River to build a hydropower station, as long as the problem of electricity is solved, the umbrella company will immediately set up a large military factory in the southwest region, and then provide a steady stream of weapons and ammunition for the front-line troops. ”

"Millions of troops on the front line, can he do it with a military factory? I've seen enough. "Like Zhu De, there are many people who are not optimistic about the plan, and the *** who was temporarily added to the delegation is also suspicious, there is more than one arsenal in the Kuomintang-controlled area, but the troops of the national army are not the same and lack ammunition.

"I had this kind of question at the time, but you don't know that the Umbrella Company has signed a secret contract with the Germans, and the Umbrella Company can buy more than 50,000 Mauser rifles and matching ammunition from the Germans every month. Moreover, once the Germans provoked a war in Europe, among all the trophies of the German exchange of fire, the umbrella company had the right of first refusal to purchase all types of arms. That is to say, whenever the German army captures arms or military equipment from other countries, as long as the umbrella company gives money, it can be immediately brought back for us to use. ”

"The self-built arsenal and the munitions imported from Europe, we have carefully calculated, these together are completely enough for our troops on the front line, and besides, we can still capture weapons from the Japanese army." In response to Zhu De's questions and suspicions, Zhou Enlai easily answered, and his answers were also the answers that Zhuo Fei gave him that day.

"From this point of view, Lao Jiang's move is very big, this is to restore the era of the Tang Dynasty and the Qiang Song Dynasty. Okay, as long as he Lao Chiang has this heart and is really thinking about the country, we revolutionaries will accompany him for a while, even if he fails, there is nothing, at least he will drive the Japanese out of China, right? Mao Zedong had already seen from the situation introduced by Zhou Enlai and the plan in his hand that Chiang Kai-shek may really be determined to cooperate with the CCP this time.

Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night, and the members of the delegation had already gathered in groups and threes to discuss the plan. The plan that Zhou Enlai showed to everyone was too shocking, and after reading this plan and listening to Zhou Enlai's explanation, the members of the delegation who were hot in their chests had become sleepless.
