As soon as Martov entered the door, he greeted Gusev and Vera, "Hello, Comrade Director. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Hello, Vicha. ”

Both greeted him at the same time, "Hello, Alexander Ivanovich. "Hello, Yajia. ”

Gusev handed the letter and the photograph to Martov, "Could you please see what this letter and photograph are all about?" ”

Martov sat down on the couch in front of his desk with the letter and the photograph and looked down, and Vera sat down in front of him.

After a while, Martov got up and walked up to Gusev, smiled and said: "This General Hu is true when he talks about studying in our country, I have seen all the files of Chinese cadets who came to study at the Kiev Military Academy in Moscow. ”

He pointed to the photo and said: "In addition to General Hu, the four Chinese in the photo stand on the right side of Marshal Vasilevsky Chinese one is named Liu Ruizhen, who defected to Chiang Kai-shek soon after returning to China, and is now a commander of Chiang Kai-shek's army, and the other is Tian Xiude, whose Russian name is Tikhonov. He joined the Chinese Communist Party in 1927 and married a Russian girl in Moscow, having a daughter. In 1932, Tian Xiude left the Soviet Union and returned to China, where he now works in the Chinese Communist army in Manchuria. The Chinese next to General Hu, surnamed Zhao, was missing after returning to China. ”

Gusev held his chin and thought about it: "It seems that this General Hu did not lie, he did not think that he had left the Soviet Union for twenty years, and his Russian foundation had not been lost. So, how do we reply to General Hu now? Did you report it to Marshal Vasilevsky first? ”

Martov returned to the sofa, waved his hand and said: "Pavel Mikhailovich, I regret to tell you that, according to the latest report of the CCP's radio station, General Hu was killed by the CCP troops in a battle last night. In other words, the only way to contact General Hu now is through God's help. ”

Vera blinked her blue eyes, "But General Hu's representative, General Wei Youzhai, is still in Nanjing, and General Hu's letter also provides a way to contact General Wei, and General Wei is still waiting for our reply." Also, although General Hu is dead, his troops will not all be destroyed, right? ”

Martov smiled, "According to the latest information provided by my Chinese intelligence officer, about 7,000 people from General Hu's 1st and 3rd Divisions fled to the area occupied by the *** army in the early hours of this morning. China's warlord forces have always been subordinate only to their own commanders or their chief's cronies, and the officers of the Central Army could not completely control them at all, and the two divisions of General Hu could only be handed over to General Wei in the future. From this point of view, we can contact General Wei, but please note that General Wei has never been to our country and does not speak Russian at all. So how deep will he feel for the USSR? ”

Speaking of this, Martov's expression became solemn again, "Not only General Wei, but also General Hu, who can speak fluent Russian, as far as I can see, his feelings for the Soviet Union are actually very cold, and his current request for help from our country is just a survival tactic of his warlord." In the words of the Chinese, this kind of person is a mother when he has milk, and whoever gives him benefits, or whose benefits he needs, he goes to. Today, he needs the benefits of our Soviet Union, so he has come to our Soviet Union. But tomorrow, if the Americans win him over, he will unceremoniously kick us away and go to the United States again. In view of the fact that we have learned in the past that we came to the aid of the warlord Sheng Shicai in Xinjiang, but in the end we were kicked out by Sheng Shicai, I think that even if General Hu comes to ask for help in person now, we should ignore him. ”

Vera lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her face and nodded, shaking her slender neck, "What Yajia said makes sense, you can imagine that we have helped General Hu, and General Hu can establish a Bolshevik regime in Huanghuaihai that is separated from China?" ”

At this point, her crystal clear blue eyes shone with a jewel-like glow. "It should be noted that Huanghuaihai is different from Mongolia, where there are very few Han Chinese, and unlike Xinjiang, where the Han population does not account for the majority of the total population, it is feasible for us to help these two places to break away from China's people's revolution. However, Huang Huaihai is almost all Han Chinese, and now he is the main battlefield for the key competition between the CCP and the CCP. General Hu's army of 20,000 men at most, he had few supporters here, and it was an unrealistic fantasy that he would establish a new regime out of China here. ”

Gusev lowered his head and thought for a long time, then raised his head and said with a smile: "Then, it is so decided, ignore General Hu's representatives, and do not report General Hu's letter to Marshal Vasilevsky." ”

After Martov and Vera in an overcoat walked out of Gusev's office, they nodded to the guards at the door, and walked arm in arm towards the stairs, and when they reached the staircase, they met a Chinese wearing a white shirt and black pants with a vertical collar. He is about thirty, not tall, with small eyes, dark skin, holding a tray in both hands, and there is an aluminum coffee pot with a handle and a mouth and four white porcelain coffee cups on the plate. Wang Er nodded to Martov and Vera, then walked up to the guard standing guard, nodded to the guard and said, "This is the coffee that the director wanted." ”

The guard didn't speak, just rang the doorbell, heard the sound of "please come in" from the house, and opened the door.

Wang Er walked into the room with a tray, and said to Gusev, who was sitting behind the desk, with a smile on his face: "Director, the coffee you asked for is ready." Seeing that Gusev nodded to him, he walked to the writing desk, put the tray on the table, took the coffee pot and poured a steaming cup of coffee and handed it to Gusev.

Wang Er turned around to leave with the tray, when he heard Gusev shouting behind him: "Wang, you wait a minute." ”

Wang Er turned around and saw Gusev holding a cup and drinking coffee slowly, while looking at the house, he slowly spoke non-standard Chinese: "Wang, take off the curtains on the two windows and wash them, and at the same time replace them with new curtains, the glass on the windows, the wall skirts, and the portrait of Comrade Stalin on the wall should be scrubbed, water these pots of flowers, and feed some fish feed to the goldfish bowl." Oh, this wastebasket is full of clutter, you can take it and throw it away. As he spoke, Gusev gestured to the wastebasket in front of his desk.

Wang Er bent down and replied respectfully, "Yes." ”

Gusev took a few more sips of coffee, then got up and said: "I have something to go out and come back in two hours, and when I come back, I hope you will do everything I have told you to do." ”

Wang Er replied respectfully again, "Director, please rest assured." He then removed the black tweed coat and hat, and white woolen scarf from the hanger in the corner, and handed them to Gusev with both hands. Gusev drank the coffee in the cup, dressed himself, and went out.

Wang Er walked to the window and began to remove the curtains.

All drawers and doors of the desk have been locked, and on the smooth desktop, in addition to the coffee pot and coffee cup that Wang Er put just now, there are three telephones in red, white and black, some pens, pencils, ink, and other office stationery, as well as several neatly stacked Chinese editions of the Soviet foreign propaganda magazine "Soviet Pictorial", and the Chinese version of "A Concise Course on the History of the Communist Party," "Stalin on the Great Patriotic War of the Soviet Union," and "The Soviet Army" published by the Soviet Foreign Books Publishing Bureau (Author's note: This was the case with the cover of the Chinese edition of the book published in 1943, when there was no distinction between "the bottom" and "bottom" of the articles written by Chinese, and foreign-published Chinese books were also affected by this.) Next to the book is a photo album with a dark gray cardboard cover.
