For the Northeast Autonomous Government, which is in the early stage of large-scale economic construction, such a huge fortune is enough to lay the foundation for economic take-off. At that time, one gram of gold was worth about 5 US dollars or 7 yen or 9 silver dollars, which was enough to exchange for more than 5 billion yuan of spot money, which was about 30 times the total fiscal revenue of the three northeastern provinces in 1919!

Note that this refers to net income! According to the current scale, 300 Shenyang Arsenal, 1,000 Fushun Coal Mines and other large mines can be built, and more than 100 Guards Divisions can be armed!

Ji Yiqiao also fully understood why the young marshal had been emphasizing the need for the special operations brigade to adapt to the cold climate of Siberia and to go to the extremely cold areas of Hei Province for adaptive training many times at this moment when everything was in ruins.

What he didn't know was that Gao Jiyi had already sent a large number of intelligence personnel to learn more about the transportation and human geography of Siberia, and the garrison of the Soviet Russian army and the White Bandit Army, and brought back a large number of maps.

It turned out that the young marshal had already sharpened his knife and stared at this piece.

Although he was puzzled at the time, he faithfully fulfilled his mission. Now it's time for the special operations brigade to conduct a special operation, just waiting for Gao Jiyi's last news.

Less than two months after the capture of Omsk by the Russian army, Kolchak sensed a hint of danger. The war on the front was getting worse and worse, and even Kolchak, the self-proclaimed "supreme ruler of Russia" and commander-in-chief of the army and navy, and boasted by all the Entente media as the "Washington of Russia", had to admit that his army had indeed been defeated.

In a good situation, how could it be defeated so quickly? Not long ago, when Winston Churchill had pledged to "strangle the Bolsheviks in the cradle," he realized, with the sensitivity of a soldier, that Soviet Russia would inevitably face a tough adversary. Sure enough, shortly thereafter, 14 countries, including Britain, France, Poland, the United States, and Japan, sent troops to engage in a series of battles with the Soviet Russian Red Army.

In the middle of spring, more than 30,000 members of the Menshevik and Socialist-Revolutionaries supported the Czech Corps, which was mainly composed of former Russian Czech and Austro-Hungarian prisoners of war, mutinied;

In July, the Trans-Siberian Railway from Baikal to the Ural Mountains was controlled;

On November 18, the government of the Mensheviks and the Socialist-Revolutionaries was overthrown by a coup d'état by the former Russian admiral Kolchak, who also proclaimed himself "the supreme commander of all Russia" and commanded a huge army of no less than 100,000 people.

Initially determined to win the war with the support of foreign intervention forces, he soon found that the tide of the war was tilting against him, and their successive victories came to an abrupt end in early 1919.

However, the good times did not last long. After Trotsky, the founder of the Russian Red Army, went to the front line on an armored train to supervise the battles and sent guards into the battlefield many times, the morale of the Red Army was greatly boosted. On the Belaya River, several officer corps, which could be called the elite division of Kolchak, were annihilated by the Red Army under the command of Tukhachevsky; The left flank of the front was counterattacked by the Red Army on the Southern Front under the command of Frunze, and it was impossible to get through the front with Denikin. Since then, the White Army has been in a slump and has been defeated and retreated. He, a naval commander who had repeatedly performed in war, could no longer reverse the decline on land.

Until the defeat and death of the army, Kolchak could not save the defeat. The ensuing period was a process in which the Soviet Red Army cleared out the remnants of the intervening armies (mainly the Japanese army) and the white bandit army (bandits if defeated), which is what the Soviet Union calls "the civil war and armed intervention from 1917 to 1922" in history.

If you want to say whether Kolchak is still unwilling, it is of course: the sudden defeat of the army in a good situation is something that no one expected at the beginning. He had the pride of the Russian Navy, and surrender was impossible; With the Soviet government's treatment of the rebels, he will definitely not end well. And he still has a glimmer of hope, that is, to use the gold in his hand to wait for the opportunity to make a comeback.

However, if he holds on to his crimes, he may be killed if he doesn't get this pile of gold!

Within the coalition forces, the British and French, as well as the Czech general Zha Geeda and the Cossack leader Semyonov, who were with him against the Russians, saw him as an obstacle and wanted to take possession of the supposedly rich gold, regardless of the life or death of the supreme consul. In the first two months, when the situation was critical, they even had to hand him over to the Bolshevik Party as a safe exit from Russia. Under the nest, Ann has finished eggs? No matter how dull a soldier is, he has to think of a way out in the future.

According to intelligence, Kolchak had placed all the gold on both sides of the railway, which was closely guarded by his cronies. As soon as the situation changes, he can immediately take a car to the east---- far east, there are cities such as Novosibirsk, Tomsk, Irkutsk, etc., and there is a vast world for him to do a lot. Although to the east, it is the point of no return that has long been designed for him by entering history.

Zhang Hanqing didn't care about Kolchak's life or death, but I heard that the Japanese were also very interested in this gold, and the Japanese Intervention Army Command also sent a large number of spies to watch this wealth! According to the historical rehearsal, once the sphere of influence of the Japanese intervention army east of Lake Baikal is reached, with the greed of the Japanese, it would be strange if the Feng army could still get a piece of the pie.

At this time, Gao Jiyi personally stepped out. This yellow-skinned, black-eyed Chinese walked thousands of miles into Kolchak's sight.

Unlike the pretenders around him, whose desires are buried deep in their hearts but bloom inadvertently from time to time, this Chinese nakedly put forward the conditions of asylum: give half of the gold, and the government of Northeast China will guarantee the safety of his person and remaining personal property.

When will it be the turn of the Chinese, who have always been bullied, to speak so loudly and protect him, the "hero" of all Russia? As far as he knew, in addition to the Japanese controlling the whole of Eastern Siberia and the Far East, the three eastern provinces had always been their confiner. How can a local government, which cannot even guarantee its own sovereignty and dare not raise its voice properly, guarantee the safety of a foreigner who "cherishes his guilt"?

Kolchak said to Gao Jiyi with irony in fluent Chinese (he not only knew Chinese, which is obscure for foreigners, but he also knew three other foreign languages): "It is rumored that the Chinese military government and the Red Bandit government have planned to sign a cooperation agreement, and when the time comes, will you be able to resist the pressure of the Soviet Russian government and not hand me over?" Or is it the pressure of the Japanese when they find out? ”

He was talking about the so-called "military mutual assistance" agreement signed between the Duan Qirui government and the Japanese military, in which China was not only tied to Japan's chariot, but also had the idea of letting Japan rightfully get involved in the Middle East. Zhang Zuolin had long opposed this agreement in the name of the Northeast Autonomous Government, and resisted the Japanese infiltration in Hei Province on various occasions.

Gao Jiyi has long planned for this. He said in a calm tone: "General Kolchak, what you said is already history. Now it is Marshal Zhang Zuolin who controls the Northeast, and the Northeast Autonomous Government headed by him did not approve of the agreement.

The Northeast Autonomous Government and the Soviet Russian Government are two different sovereign bodies, and there is no such thing as who threatens whom. Some time ago, our army was still fighting with the Russian army in Hulunbuir, and won the battle, and took the whole of Hulunbuir, which you Russians call 'Manchuria'. ”

Kolchak was surprised by this news, he really did not know. Cornered by the Red Army on all fronts, he had no leisure to care about China, which was still far away. However, it is surprising that the army of Gao Ji Yizheng dared to fight and win against the Russians.

Of course, this Russian army is similar to itself, it is loyal to the old Russia of the tsar, and it may not be as equipped as the Japanese, and its fighting spirit is not as good as that of the Red Bandit Army (the Red Bandit Army in their mouth, that is, the Soviet Red Army, also calls itself the White Bandit Army), and the defeat is understandable. But even so, it should not be lost to the weak Chinese army.

I have the impression that the Chinese army and government have always been at the mercy of others, but judging by the other party's expressions, it does not seem to be cheating, and it is difficult to cheat on such a major matter. Well, it's necessary to send someone to find out about the situation, and it's an option, isn't it?

Gao Jiyi saw the other party's expression and knew that he had some ideas, so he took advantage of the victory to pursue and said: "Regardless of the recent actions of our army in Hulunbuir, I believe you can also see that at present, in Northeast Asia, only the Feng army is the only force that can guarantee your safety. Our commander now has more than 10 full-fledged divisions, and the equipment is far stronger than the Russian army in Hulunbuir! ”

This Gao Jiyi is a little bragging, he can fight like the Guards Division and the 29th Division and is a well-equipped army, only the 1st, 27th, and 28th divisions in the Northeast can be compared, and the others are hahaha, not to mention the two divisions that are still being reorganized. However, negotiations are also a balance of military power, and it is understandable that appropriate adjustments should be made in order to increase the weight.

"It is true that if Soviet Russia learns of this news, it will put a lot of pressure on us, so I am on the orders of the young marshal to negotiate with you and make a decision quickly when the situation is still supportable. I think the huge Northeast or China is enough for you to stay. As for the agreement with the government of Soviet Russia," Gao Jiyi smiled and said: "As long as you live your rich life incognito and no longer continue to choose to be the enemy of Soviet Russia, I think the two sides should not violate this agreement." ”

He used a confident tone to directly dissect the current situation one by one: "General Kolchak, with the current situation, I believe that you are powerless to return to the sky, and now you should be thinking about how to deal with the aftermath." You are the worst enemy of Soviet Russia, everyone else can surrender, you can't. Someone else will also borrow your head as an advanced bargaining chip!

If things don't go your way, there's no way out but to the east or south. To the east, you will soon reach the territory of the Japanese, and they don't seem to be very interested in you, but the old man in the east is what they like. Even if you pass the Japanese pass and come to Semenov's territory in the east, he is your old adversary, are you willing to be subservient? ”

As the saying goes, "where there are people, there are rivers and lakes", Grandpa Mao also said that "where there are crowds, there are left, center and right", and the "intervention army" is not monolithic: Britain and the United States supported Kolchak to establish an independent military regime, while Japan supported Semenov as his agent in the Far East, and the contradictions between the two sides have always been fierce.

Even at a time when the Red and White armies were at their most fierce and needed the most unification of military orders, Japan was forced to turn to Kolchak under pressure and on the other hand was unwilling to leave Semyonov behind.
