Chapter 256: Four Horses Divide Fat

Liu Yun was also dumbfounded, Zhang Shaoshuai is not stupid, but when he is doing things, he is too easy to get hot, is the Soviet Union very rich? Having money is the hell of a life, not to mention that this guy still wants to get the allowance from the Soviet Union, isn't he afraid of being poked in the back.

It seems that there will be less mouth cannon in the future, Commander Liu does regret it a little, when he meets a romantic like Zhang Shaoshuai, anyone has a headache, and in desperation, he had to remind him euphemistically, "Brother Han Qing, I don't know if you are clear about the recent situation in the Soviet Union, or what do you think?" ”

"What's going on in the Soviet Union?"

Zhang Shaoshuai really doesn't know, he only knows that the Soviet Union is very strong, after several "five-year plans", the establishment of a red empire that shocked the world, but also created a lot of industrial miracles, it is said that even the European and American powers are ashamed of themselves, by the way, recently is calling on everyone to go to Spain to participate in the war.

Liu Yun's eyes rolled when he heard this, the Spanish Civil War was in charge of China's, it was a special session of the European and American powers.

Didn't the Soviets want to enter the Spanish Civil War in order to gain passage through the Strait of Gibraltar? The strait is strategically equivalent to the Suez Canal, just located at the throat of the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean, and has always been a symbol of the maritime hegemony of the Western European powers.

Taking the Battle of Tsushima in 1905 as an example, the combined fleet of Heihachiro and the Japanese army adopted the correct tactic of "waiting for work at ease" and defeated the Russian expeditionary fleet from afar at the cost of losing three torpedo boats.

However, if the British Empire had not deliberately miserrated and forbade the Tsarist fleet to freely pass through the Strait of Gibraltar and the Suez Canal, this powerful European fleet would not have had to go around the Cape of Good Hope in Africa, and it would have taken more than 8,000 nautical miles in a total of more than eight months, so that the overall combat effectiveness of the fleet would have been lost.

Therefore, it is understandable that the Soviet Union wanted to seek special rights and interests in these strategic locations.

The British Empire controlled the Strait of Gibraltar, built a large number of large-caliber turret groups, and established a "never-falling" Gibraltar war barrier, which seemed to be holy and invincible, but the premise was that the Spaniards could only do it if they did not cooperate with the outside world, so the Spaniards enjoyed the "special right of way", and the Soviets naturally wanted to secretly share some benefits from it.

What kind of international columns, it's all about deceiving young people, okay? For Soviet Russia, the interests of the red fruit are real.

Since the Soviet Union itself was embarrassed to openly send troops, it had no choice but to take a detour and enter the war in a different situation, and called on enthusiastic young people from all over the world to voluntarily participate in the Spanish Civil War, so that Britain, France, Germany, the United States and other powerful countries could not find their sore feet to intervene in the Spanish Civil War.

Then again, the side supported by the Soviet Union was not a leftist force or a red force such as the Spanish Labor Party, but the most conservative and stubborn vested interests, and the most aptly called the "Spanish government army", but who knew that this was a decadent and decadent government that was about to be overthrown.

While secretly sneering, Commander Liu expressed deep sympathy for Zhang Shaoshuai's romance and ignorance, of course, he did not slap people in the face, but adopted a roundabout attack routine, "As far as I know, the Soviet Union has more than 10 republics and tens of millions of troops, where is the money to support Huaxia."

For the little bit of in the Soviet Russian republics, Zhang Shaoshuai still knows, because these are the great achievements of the Soviet Union, and they will not deliberately conceal or implicitly, but no one usually investigates it deeply, and now I think about it There are really some problems, the young marshal himself is the one who leads the troops, when the number of troops goes up every level, all kinds of military expenditures will increase geometrically, and no matter how strong the Soviet Union is, it has to become poor.

However, the strength of the Red Empire, Zhang Shaoshuai has personally experienced it.

In 1929, due to the dispute between the Eastern Railway (Northeast Railway), under the bombardment of Soviet artillery and aircraft, the well-known strong brigade of the Northeast Army was defeated and annihilated, so that the elite of the old Zhang family was lost, which is also the root cause of hundreds of thousands of Northeast Army who would rather enter the customs to participate in the warlord melee than face the provocation and attack of the Soviet and Japanese armies.

Looking at Zhang Shaoshuai's silence, Liu Yun sent out the final blow in a timely manner, "In 1934, Minister Kong went to the United States to buy bankrupt industrial equipment, but saw some interesting things, well, we Huaxia are taking silver dollars to buy equipment, but some people are using grain to buy machinery, guess who they are?" ”

Do you still need to guess this, Zhang Shaoshuai asked a little dryly, "Could it be that he is a Soviet?" ”

"Was the USSR an agrarian power?" Liu Yun sneered a little and quietly asked again.

"Well, the territory of the Soviet Union is so big, probably, probably."

Zhang Shaoshuai himself was unconfident, the world knows that the Soviet Union is an industrial power, and when it comes to agriculture, it really can't be ranked.

"So, where did the food needed to buy so much industrial equipment come from, did it fall from the sky?" Commander Liu exaggeratedly slanted his mouth, revealing Bai Sensen's teeth, which made the young marshal cold, and involuntarily remembered a terrifying rumor.

"For example, the Great Famine in Ukraine", Liu Yun hit mercilessly to the end.

Ukraine is located in the European part of the Soviet Union, the land is relatively gentle and fertile, very suitable for the development of agriculture, has always been a famous granary in the Soviet Union, after the outbreak of the world economic crisis in 1929, the Soviet Union's industrial construction is developing rapidly, but Ukraine is suffering from famine every year, and even a piece of starvation death.

After Liu Yun's scrupulous scrutiny, Zhang Shaoshuai immediately understood how poor the Soviet Union was, it was true that it was an industrial power, but it was exchanged for meager rations, and the machinery and equipment were all eliminated by the United States.

After Zhang Shaoshuai pondered for a moment, he had to think about the feasibility of the other two suggestions.

The best policy, he will not consider it at all, because this means that hundreds of thousands of Northeast Army will collapse and disappear from now on, and even from then on, there will be no Northeast Army, "Brother, how difficult do you see the middle policy, and can it be successfully implemented?" ”

"Yes, but Brother Han Qing, you can't do it with your own efforts", seeing that the relatives and friends who participated in the wedding have a tendency to gradually disperse, Liu Yun doesn't want to waste his lips and tongue anymore, in a word.

To give a simple example, when it comes to the "non-resistance order" of the September 18 Incident, many people say that Lao Jiang did it.

Did he really do it? What a joke.

Before 1931, the Northeast Army was a semi-independent warlord, second only to the Central Army in terms of strength, why should they listen to Lao Chiang, "order" them not to resist, they will not resist, they are so obedient, do they all become Lao Chiang's godson, it is really a fantasy.

Let's talk about Zhang Shaoshuai himself. Was this "order of non-resistance" given by him?

It is related to the foundation of hundreds of thousands of Northeast Army, how can he give up if he says that he can give up, he is considered an elder, and everyone praises him as a young marshal, and if it is difficult to hear, he is the younger generation of the Northeast generals, such as Zhang Zuoxiang, Zhang Zongchang, Tang Yulin and other famous veterans, who has always listened to the tune and not listened to the announcement, once it does not suit their appetite, who will listen to him, the junior.

Turning over the entire process of the fall of the three northeastern provinces, from the September 18 Incident, to the later Jinzhou Defense Battle, Rehe Defense Battle, Jilin Defense Battle, Heilongjiang Defense Battle, and later the Battle of the Great Wall, etc., all prove that these Northeast Army from top to bottom are all fierce, and they are sparse in battle.

Among the generals of the Northeast Army, Tang Yulin, who was stationed in Rehe, was the most bizarre, and he expropriated the common people in the area under his jurisdiction, saying that it was "in dire straits, and the ground was sinking into three feet", but when it came to leading troops to fight, he was a layman, and Chengde, the provincial governor of Rehe, did not fire a shot, and was easily occupied by a cavalry squad of the Japanese army, which is really jaw-dropping, and I don't know if this guy has already joined the Japanese to become a Han girl.

Therefore, if you want to rectify hundreds of thousands of Northeast Army, Zhang Shaomarshal alone is really not enough, no matter Yinyang's qualifications, or ability and skill, can not subdue these proud soldiers, the Northeast Army in 1936 is already a veritable bandit team, if you want to rejuvenate yourself, you have to undergo a major operation.

There are not many forces that can really suppress hundreds of thousands of Northeast Army troops and carry out major surgery.

At present, the Soviets are busy with the Spanish Civil War, and they are engaged in internal rebellion, and they are really powerless to look eastward, so only the Nanjing Nationalist Government led by Lao Chiang can barely do it, then again, if Lao Chiang really has this ability, I am afraid that he will start to do it in 1931, and how can it be delayed until today, for a while, Zhang Shaoshuai and Commander Liu looked at each other and were helpless.

At this time, Miss Kong came over and invited everyone to dinner one by one, Liu Sanye suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and his thoughts suddenly became clear.

"Four horses divide the fat", Liu Yun whispered to Zhang Shaoshuai.

The young marshal understood the literal meaning of this sentence, but what it meant, he seemed to understand it.

Commander Liu had no choice but to explain slightly, the three or four hundred thousand Northeast Army, the hedgehogs are gathered together, and it is very troublesome to want to undergo major surgery, but if it is divided into four, it will be much easier, in addition to the young marshal's pro-army, the others can be thrown into Yan'an, Nanjing and other large and small warlords in various places, isn't it the "four-horse carriage".

This is really a good idea, and Zhang Shaoshuai is also a little moved, but he is also a little worried, worried about the thousands of family members of the army, as well as the settlement of the old, weak, sick and disabled.

Liu Yun had no choice but to sneer and immediately recommend the "relatively mature" model of western Sichuan, taking the development of railways and highways as an opportunity to develop industry, mining and light industry, so as to solve the problems of veterans and their families.

Because Shaanxi is rich in minerals, and the road traffic is relatively developed, it is still the famous place of Guanzhong in ancient times, and it is also the earliest country of abundance, although it has gradually declined in recent hundreds of years, but there are still 3,000 nails in the ship, which is much stronger than the border of West Sichuan County or the closed Chuankang and other places.

To be honest, Zhang Shaoshuai really doesn't understand much, and one of the important factors why he admires the Soviet Union is that he wants to learn from the Soviet Union's heavy industry development model and find a way to survive for the Northeast Army, but it is also very good if he can learn from the western Sichuan model.

Zhang Shaoshuai is not an ordinary person, but a big man who has gone through countless ups and downs, Liu Yun's suggestion is good, but he also has his own arrangements, so he agreed with Commander Liu that he will visit western Sichuan within half a month, if the results of the investigation are feasible, it is not ruled out that the "western Sichuan model" will really be introduced.

The huge land of China, how can it be changed by a mere Liu Yun, so let 40,000 compatriots take action to engage in construction and development together, in order to truly change this special time and space of the Republic of China, Zhang Shaoshuai is willing to learn from the model of western Sichuan, and Commander Liu is naturally upside down, because development is the last word.

In the following days, the Kong family was busy, but the marriage between Liu Yun and Kong Yuling was also considered to be a stage, and Commander Liu also had to consider the small family, and the all-out war of resistance was imminent.

Kong Yuling is a career-oriented strong woman, and she does have a genetic talent in business, as for whether to move to the city, she has a different opinion, that is, maybe there will be a war next year, but it will not affect the pharmaceutical industry, and on the contrary, all parties involved in the war will consciously protect the United Pharmaceutical Factory.

In addition, the United Pharmaceutical Factory has opened a branch in the United States, and has also concluded a humanitarian agreement with the Vatican, and every year it will provide a large number of medicines free of charge, specifically for humanitarian relief around the world.

Of course, the cunning rabbit still has three caves, and Kong Yuling has no objection to the establishment of a branch in the city, and as early as a year ago, she built a branch (new factory) in the city, but in order to avoid repeated construction, and the fluctuation of people's hearts in the pharmaceutical factory, it was not really put into production, but she believes that this matter should be carried out secretly.
