Chapter 22 Cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party (3)
Although Zhuo Fei had anticipated various scenes in advance, he did not expect that when Mao Zedong and Chiang Kai-shek met the next day, both of them maintained relative restraint, and there was nothing between words that could make people think about it. In contrast to the lackluster performances of Chiang Kai-shek and Mao Zedong, the other participants on both sides of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, many of whom had been opponents on the battlefield, were secretly competing with each other.
The meeting took place in Chiang Kai-shek's official residence, and the meeting hall was arranged according to Zhuo Fei's proposal, with a long table arranged in the center of the hall that served as the meeting place, and the participants of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party were seated on either side. "That's good, no matter the guest of honor, everyone is equal." When he took his seat, the smiling Zhu De didn't forget to make a few jokes, but after everyone took their seats, they found that Zhuo Fei, who was wearing casual clothes, had quietly stood at the end of the long table near the large map.
"Everyone, please be silent." After receiving Chiang Kai-shek's signal, Zhuo Fei commanded his guards to close all the curtains in the living room, and just when the participants were suspicious, a movie projector that had been placed in the living room had been quietly working. "This film was shot by a Jewish film director at Umbrella Company, and what you are looking at now is the Jewish settlement of Ruili, where there are now nearly 200,000 Jews, and at least a third of these Jews are skilled workers, as well as some scientists and engineers."
As the film played, Zhuo Fei's voice appeared in the living room, and while most of the participants had not yet come to their senses, Mao Zedong was engrossed in watching the scenes in the film. "This is a big project of our umbrella company this year, using the Ruili River to build a hydropower station. As soon as the hydropower station is completed, the Ruili area will say goodbye to the era of no electricity, and the Umbrella Company will immediately start construction of a military factory in the Jewish settlement of Ruili, which according to our plan should be the largest in Asia. ”
The arsenal mentioned in Zhuo Fei's words aroused the interest of the generals of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and the largest military factory in Asia would make people feel inexplicably excited just thinking about it. "Once this military factory is operational, 30,000 new assault rifles a month is just the minimum production, and if we can ship more production lines from the United States, maybe that number will exceed 50,000 a month." The content of the film suddenly changes at this point, and a Jewish soldier armed with an AK assault rifle appears on the screen, accompanied by fierce gunfire, and the participants see first-hand the power of the new assault rifle.
"This new assault rifle has become a regular configuration of the German army, and among all the countries in the world at present, only Germany and we are secretly producing this assault rifle, and after September next year, this new assault rifle will no longer be a secret." Along with Zhuo Fei's explanation, assault rifles, large-caliber heavy machine guns, armored vehicles equipped with heavy machine guns and light tanks appeared in the film, and these contents had already made the participants' blood boil.
The last thing that appeared in the film was a printing factory, and the products of this printing factory made some of the participants finally cry out uncontrollably, yes, the printing factory that appeared in the film was Zhuo Fei's counterfeit banknote factory. Facing everyone's inquiring eyes, Zhuo Fei said calmly, "This is a counterfeit banknote factory located in Germany, and all the people who work in the printing house are Jews, at their current speed. Every month, the counterfeit factory prints nearly $30 million in hard-to-identify counterfeit notes for the Umbrella Company, and this money is the source of the Umbrella Company's ultimate plan. ”
"For the rejuvenation of the country and the continuation of the nation, I don't care that I will be called a scumbag, a liar or a butcher by future generations, and I am willing to give everything for the dream in my heart." In front of many participants of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, Zhuo Fei, who is the explainer of the ultimate plan, showed perseverance and courage in the face of doubts. Like everyone who knew about this ultimate plan at the beginning, when the high-level leaders of the two parties who participated in the talks listened to Zhuo Fei's explanation of this plan, some people still couldn't control themselves and exclaimed again and again.
They also came from young people, and they used to be full of enthusiasm, but when they saw Zhuo Fei's ultimate plan, the pride that had been hidden in their bones was instantly triggered, especially some military generals even rolled up their sleeves.
"The first step of the plan is the sincere cooperation of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and only by working together can we make rational use of all the war materials at hand and turn the tide of the war in the shortest possible time. As the boss of the umbrella company, I will first come up with an agenda item here: I need the Kuomintang and the Communist Party to each hand over 5,000 soldiers to the umbrella company, and the umbrella company will conduct targeted training for these soldiers by the selected training instructors, and in three months, these 10,000 soldiers will be the main force in carrying out guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines. ”
Zhuo Fei paused slightly, he was waiting for the participants to ask their questions, but unfortunately, everyone stared at him without blinking, but no one expressed doubts. "Guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines is the most crucial part of this ultimate plan, attacking the Japanese army's logistical supply lines, destroying all military buildings built by the Japanese army in enemy-occupied areas, and killing the Japanese army's living forces in a planned and purposeful manner. To a certain extent, this will make the Japanese army have to deploy heavy troops to strengthen the defense of the occupied areas, and in a sense, it is also a means of quickly depleting the logistics supply of the Japanese army. ”
"The CCP is good at mobilizing the people, which is also a help to our plan, what we need to do is not only secretly mobilize the people against the Japanese army, but also in some militarily sensitive areas, artificially create no man's land, has reached the idea of cutting off the Japanese army to replenish supplies on the spot. As we all know, Japan is only an island country, and due to population limitations, the number of soldiers of appropriate age in Japan will not exceed 3 million. 3 million people may not sound like much, but the daily supply consumption is an astronomical amount, and our first step is to make up our minds about the supply lines of the Japanese army. ”
"Using the existing defense line to confront and fight with the Japanese army, and then using the guerrillas behind enemy lines to constantly attack and harass the supply lines and important facilities of the Japanese army, all this is to gain time. Once the Kuomintang and the Communist Party cooperate, the newly formed unit will be renamed the National Defense Force, and the Umbrella Company will do its best to provide the newly formed National Defense Force with the latest weapons and equipment. The Air Force, the Armored Corps, the Artillery, these strategic arms, will be formed one by one in the Wehrmacht, but before that, we need time. ”
"The Umbrella company will bring back 50,000 Mauser rifles and a large quantity of ammunition from Europe every month, as well as 5,000 of the latest assault rifles and 1,000 large-caliber heavy machine guns from underground factories in the United States. In this way, we will be able to assemble three integrated divisions of Wehrmacht units in a month, together with the artillery, armored vehicles, and other heavy equipment produced and modified by the Jewish Arsenal, and I estimate that from January to September next year, we will be able to form a total of 130,000 Wehrmacht troops in nine infantry divisions of more than three armies. ”
"According to the intelligence gathered by the Umbrella Company's intelligence network in Germany, the Germans will provoke a European war in September next year at the latest, and this European war will be an opportunity for us to replace our heavy equipment. According to the secret agreement between our Umbrella Company and the German government, the Umbrella Company has the right of first refusal to purchase all arms and equipment of the hostile countries captured by the German army during the fighting. As long as the war broke out in Europe, our Wehrmacht would continue to obtain heavy weapons and equipment from the European theater that made the Japanese army fearful. ”
Zhuo Fei said a lot, but at this time someone questioned it in a timely manner, this time it was Zhu De who was wearing an old military uniform, in the early days of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the equipment allocated by the Kuomintang to the Eighth Route Army was not enough, not to mention, most of them were broken old weapons, Zhu De's questioning this time was focused on this. "I can now make a guarantee that as long as the Kuomintang and the Communist Party begin to cooperate in the joint formation of the National Defense Force, all strategic materials and weapons and equipment will be treated equally." Without waiting for Zhuo Fei to answer, he was preempted by Chiang Kai-shek, and Chiang Kai-shek's assurance made Zhu De's questioning not continue.
After receiving Chiang Kai-shek's signal, Zhuo Fei coughed lightly a few times, and then continued, "Actually, Mr. Zhu's doubts are also reasonable, and I may have this question, but I want to say, you don't have to be like this." Because there is no distinction between the Nationalist Army and the Eighth Route Army in the newly formed Wehrmacht units, the commander of the Wehrmacht must be reviewed and inspected by the Kuomintang and Communist Joint Staff before he can be appointed as the commander of the Wehrmacht. ”
"Military personnel do not interfere in politics, and the National Defense Force is even more so, in an army where there is no distinction between parties and status, its role is only to protect the country, defend the country, and stabilize the country. Since it is cooperation, it is necessary to show basic trust and sincerity, so the same is true for the Defence Force. Zhuo Fei's narration instantly detonated the venue, this is not a trivial matter, the troops of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are mixed up, so who will command whom in the future, the participants turned their heads to look at Chiang Kai-shek and Mao Zedong, but the two of them only cared about drinking water but did not say a word.
"The 5,000 members of the national army are already being selected, and Geyue Mountain on the outskirts of Chongqing can be used as a training base, and the cost will be borne by the national government." Putting down the water cup in his hand, Chiang Kai-shek finally came up with a sentence, and Mao Zedong also put down the teacup at this time and said an answer with almost the same content as Chiang Kai-shek, except that Mao Zedong agreed to send 5,000 soldiers of the Eighth Route Army to Geyue Mountain for training.
