Chapter 289: Continuing to flicker
Zyuganov was shocked by Zhang Cheng's strong self-confidence for a while, and among the Chinese he came into contact with, none of them had the same strong confidence as Zhang Cheng to defeat the Japanese, and although the other Chinese shouted slogans, they were actually quite apprehensive about whether they could drive the Japanese out of China.

However, Zyuganov is an experienced person, so naturally he will not be persuaded by Zhang Cheng's words so easily, and he retorted: "General Zhang Cheng, to be honest, just like you said, the hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army stationed in the northeast do pose a great threat to the security of our country's Far East, but that is because we pay more attention to Europe, and if we in the Soviet Union put more emphasis on the Far East, the Japanese will not be our opponent at all." ”
Zhang Cheng also agrees with Zyuganov's opinion in his heart, in August 1945, a few days after the Soviet Union declared war on Japan, it defeated the seemingly powerful Kwantung Army, although the defeat of the Kwantung Army in this battle has such and such reasons, but the strength of the Soviet Army is beyond doubt.
However, at that time, the Soviet army was already the elite of a hundred battles after a hard confrontation with Germany, and it was completely different from the current Soviet army.
Zhang Cheng continued to flicker: "Comrade Zyuganov, your view is wrong, your country is a beacon and model of a socialist country, and the Western countries have always lost the heart of your country, if you do not go through a bloody battle in Europe and completely defeat the covetousness of the Western forces for you, you will not be able to take care of the East."
On the other hand, our Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Party and the Communist Party of your country are both socialist political parties, and they are natural allies, and they can trust each other. You have no time to take care of the East, and you can completely support and strengthen our Workers' and Peasants' Party, so as to contain the Japanese army, so that you can concentrate on dealing with the Western forces without any worries. Therefore, it is very beneficial for your country that you have helped us defeat the Japanese. ”
After hearing this, Zyuganov thought for a long time, and finally he nodded and said: "To be honest, General Zhang Cheng, you are very different from the other leaders of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Party, they think that our country is your big brother, and they should naturally help you deal with the Japanese, and they are ashamed to talk about the exchange of interests with us, so the assistance that our country has provided to you before is something that we don't look down on, in your words, it is called Hanako."
However, I have to look at General Zhang Cheng differently, because I think that Your Excellency is a rare person in your party who understands and understands the reason that you have to pay if you want to get it, so I am willing to give Your Excellency's troops a chance, and I will try to persuade the superior leaders to give your troops more military assistance.
However, in the next sweeping war launched by the Japanese army against you, if your troops are unable to defeat the Japanese after using the weapons we have provided, then you will lose the trust of our country, and your assistance to you will end here. ”
"Comrade Zyuganov, I assure you that my instructor and I will not disappoint you." Zhang Cheng said with an oath.
"General Zhang Cheng, I want to believe you and hope you don't let me down. Your Excellency, what kind of support do you need from us to give your department? Zyuganov asked solemnly.
"Well, since Comrade Zyuganov is so cheerful, then I won't hide it, this is the list of assistance I have drawn up according to the current situation of the troops to ensure that the Japanese firepower can be suppressed in the plain area." Zhang Cheng had been prepared for a long time, and drew up a series of weapons lists based on the heavy weapons that the Soviet Union was currently equipping.
Zyuganov took the list and looked at it, and couldn't help but have a headache, it was obvious that Zhang Cheng regarded the Soviet Union as the wronged leader, and this list included the most powerful heavy weapons of the Soviet Union so far, and there were quite a few of them.
In the list of assistance mentioned by Zhang Cheng, the Soviet Union was asked to equip the instructor with a fully equipped armored brigade, a heavy artillery brigade, an air defense regiment, and an air force.
The list of armored brigades required the Soviet side to supply 80 T-35 heavy tanks, 120 BT7 fast tanks, 150 BA armored vehicles, 200 heavy trucks; The Heavy Artillery Brigade requested 36 M1910/34 152mm howitzers and 36 A-19 122mm cannons for assistance. The air defense regiment demanded that the Soviet Union provide 36 anti-aircraft guns of 37mm and 85mm calibers, 54 heavy anti-aircraft machine guns; The Air Force asked the Soviet Union for its assistance in teaching 36 I-16 fighters, 24 SB-2M-100 bombers, and 12 light trainers.
Zyuganov shook his head and said: "I have to say that Your Excellency has studied my country's weapons very thoroughly, and these weapons on the list are all very advanced heavy weapons in our country at present, but your requirements are too high, and I do not have the confidence to persuade the superior leaders to accept your request for assistance in full." ”
"Comrade Zyuganov, as long as you do your best, even if you don't meet my request for assistance, I won't blame you, after all, we're already friends, aren't we?" Zhang Cheng smiled sincerely.
Zyuganov also smiled when he heard this, and he said with the same sincerity: "Yes, my friend, I will definitely try my best to persuade my superiors to approve your request for assistance, because we are good friends!" ”
After saying that, the hands of the two men clasped tightly together, and as for the sincerity of their friendship, only God knows.
As long as the Soviet Union brought the weapons assistance he requested, plus the 37 bars and 37 types developed by themselves, as well as the cloth tearing machine and Czech type that could be produced soon, even if the Japanese army launched two complete divisions to sweep the base area, Zhang Cheng was confident that they would not return.
In his joy, Zhang Cheng shared the good news that the Soviet Union was about to assist the instructor with a batch of heavy weapons, but the political commissar said: "Division commander, did the Soviet Union really give us so many advanced weapons?" Such large assistance is unprecedented, and I fear that the Soviet side will not agree. ”
Zhang Cheng scoffed at the political commissar's worries, and said: "The Soviet Union's assistance to us this time is different from the previous one, because we did not promise to the Soviet Union to contain the Japanese army, so their assistance to us is only used to send flowers."
This time the assistance to our instructor made clear the obligations and responsibilities between the two sides, that is, the Soviet Union was responsible for providing weapons to our instructor, and our instructor was responsible for containing the Japanese forces, so that they would not have time to attack the Soviet Far Eastern Army in the north. So the Soviet Union will definitely accede to my request for assistance. ”
The political commissar nodded when he heard this, and seemed to understand a little, he concluded: "No wonder Elder Shi said that there are no eternal friends between countries, only eternal interests, it turns out that what you talked about before was not free aid, but an exchange of interests!" ”
