Chapter 790: Order

At first office, the deputy head of the Military Intelligence Bureau's intelligence substation in Nanyang, and the head of An Chun Taibi, Huang Bang Mus, rushed to Penang, and immediately after arriving at his destination, he began to prepare for the local intelligence substation.

In fact, Penang has long had an intelligence liaison station, which was set up by Gong Chuntai's predecessor himself, although there are not many personnel, but they are all capable forces, so what Gong Chuntai needs to do now is to use these capable forces to expand the scale of the intelligence liaison station to replace the role of the Singapore sub-station.

After two days of preparation, the intelligence substation has now set up a shelf and has begun to carry out its mission.

However, without waiting for Gong Chuntai to make specific work arrangements, Huang Chengshan had already come over and issued an order to him as Gong Chuntai's top boss.

The order was simple: find a way to deal with the forces of the League in the Pinang and maintain the unity and interests of the small United Front in Nanyang.

Although the order is simple, it is not an easy thing to complete smoothly, which involves the interests of all aspects, and it is not something that a stunned young man can handle.

Fortunately, Huang Chengshan did not faint, and when this order was issued, he did not set a specific time for Gong Chuntai to complete the task, which somewhat relieved Gong Chuntai, and immediately sent a telegram to the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Bureau, informing him of the incident, and threw this hot potato directly to Tian Jinfu.

This is indeed a hot potato, Gong Chuntai must be cautious, he is very aware of the influence of the Alliance, when he planned the anti-Qing uprising in Hunan, the Alliance was an ally, if there was no alliance to contact and respond, I am afraid that Gong Chuntai would not escape from Hunan alive.

Although the League failed to gain real power from the central government of China, and the "Guangdong Incident" of that year also caused the League to lose many of its original allies, this does not change the basic fact that the leader of the League, Mr. Sun, is still a talented orator and demagogue, and the League has deep roots in the Nanyang region, it is indeed not easy to eradicate this organization, which requires the cooperation of many parties, and requires the nod of the center, after all, the League still has considerable influence overseas, and " Those who slipped through the net in the "Guangdong Incident" have long been familiar with the local people's conditions, and they can use their familiarity with the people's conditions to further confuse the Chinese and overseas Chinese.

Gong Chuntai is a person who values righteousness, when he joined forces with the League to fight against the Qing uprising, in that uprising, Gong Chuntai had contacts with some of the veterans in the League, although most of those elders have now joined the United Front, but as long as a few people are still outside this political system, Gong Chuntai must talk to them about righteousness, and this is one of the reasons why he sent a telegram directly to the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Bureau, he did not want to directly decide what strategy.

But after all, Gong Chuntai is the deputy head of the intelligence substation, and he must carry out the task assigned by his superiors, and if the task conflicts with righteousness, then Gong Chuntai will not hesitate to choose the task, but only he knows how much torture he will suffer in his conscience.

Due to the chaotic situation in Malaya, the cable telegraph was still under the strict control of the colonial authorities, and it was not possible to communicate with each other in ciphers, but only to use clear code telegrams to return to China, which carried very limited information. Gong Chuntai could only simply send the news of Penang back to China in the form of a newsletter. This telegram taken from Penang was sent back to the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Bureau at noon on the same day, and at that time, Tian Jinfu was working at the headquarters, so he immediately sent a copy of this telegram to the Presidential Office Commander's Hall for President Zhao Bei to see.

Zhao Bei saw this telegram in the afternoon. While he was a little wary of the Alliance's move to establish a refugee shelter, he did not believe that the League would be able to take the opportunity to revive its former power. The reason is simple: the current central government of China has shown itself strong enough in the face of foreign powers, and the consulate in Penang is also involved in the registration and reception of refugees.

In the final analysis, buying people's hearts depends on strength, not performance, especially when the united front occupies the name of the center, the most important thing in politics for the Chinese is the name of righteousness, without this name of righteousness, that is, the left side of the door, can not become the climate.

However, Zhao Bei did not dare to be too careless, at this time, it was indeed necessary for the central government to directly negotiate with the British, so that the Chinese and overseas Chinese all over the world could take a look, and the motherland had not forgotten

Therefore, the first thing Zhao Bei did after going to work in the afternoon was to go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to ask the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to arrange that the president would summon the British Minister to China.

The British Minister to China, Zhu Erdian, waited for an hour before arriving at the presidential palace to accept the verbal protest from Mr. President.

In fact, before he came, Zhu Erdian had already guessed why the president had urgently summoned him, and just this morning, the British Foreign Secretary sent a telegram to the Legation in China, telling Zhu Erdian that the British Government had decided to take "tough action" in the Malayan region to "deter international conspirators." For this reason, the British Government had even had to revise its military offensive plan and adjust the deployment of the British Army troops fighting on the European continent. Of course, this telegram was not just for Zhu Erdian. British diplomats in Japan, the United States, France, Shanluo, and other countries also received orders with similar contents, and the British government took into account the countries with interests in the Nanyang region.

To tell the truth, Zhu Erdian also had some doubts that the current chaos in the Nanyang region might be inseparable from the "Far Eastern madman" in front of him, because he was the one who put forward the proposal to place the anti-Japanese militants in the Nanyang region in the first place. Although the original version of this proposal was proposed by the U.S. Minister to China, Stade, Stade wanted to place the Koreans in the Mongol region, not in the South Seas. The placement of North Koreans in the South Seas region is the whims of this "mad president". However, at that time, the British government was anxious to stabilize the situation in the Far East, so it actually accepted this proposal. Disarmed Korean anti-Japanese elements were immigrated to the Nanyang region through labor importation.

In other words. The British government is self-inflicted, and Zhu Erdian has no sympathy for the bureaucrats in Britain, who have no foresight. The British alliance with Japan was based on this mentality, and now, the chaos in the South Seas is directly related to the British government's way of thinking.

The British Empire, which was thriving in the past, has disappeared, and is replaced by a declining British Empire, the so-called "prosperity and decline" This is a social law, not manpower can be changed, and with the decline of British national strength will inevitably be the rigidity and lack of progress of the entire bureaucratic system, for which Zhu Erdian has no choice. The politicians in Britain are helpless.

After the verbal protest is handed over by Mr. President. Zhu Erdian suddenly asked a somewhat intriguing question.

"Mr. President, about your verbal protest. I can convey this to the British Government on my behalf. But before I convey your verbal protest, I would like to ask, when do you intend to conclude the Manila talks? According to the information received by the British Government, your country's diplomatic mission has been resorting to delaying tactics, and the Japanese peace talks are very annoyed by this. He has repeatedly threatened to withdraw from the peace talks and restart the war. ”

Zhao Bei was stunned for a moment, and then said with a straight face: "Your government seems to be a little too biased in favor of Japan, in my opinion, it is Japan that adopts delaying tactics, not our country." In addition, if the Japanese Government really intends to withdraw from the Manila peace talks, I would welcome it, because in that case my army would be able to attack the Japanese Army on the Korean Peninsula for a long time, and I cannot guarantee what will happen on the battlefield at that time. ”

These words are also hidden needles, and there is a trap in the words, it is impossible for Zhu Erdian not to hear it. However, he was not fooled, and immediately raised another topic.

"As far as I know, the press in your country has been building up public opinion lately in preparation for a presidential policy, but not all of them are in favor of the presidential policy, especially those with a League background, who are strongly opposed to the monopoly of presidential power, and who demand the immediate introduction of a real constitutional government rather than a presidential system in which the head of a sheep sells dog meat. The British government is now worried. If your country is in turmoil because of this presidential affair, I am afraid that the situation in the Far East will become even more chaotic. ”

Zhu Erdian is a threat to beat around the bush, and if these few words are placed before the war between China and Japan, they may still have some weight. But now that Japan has been defeated in the war, there is no need for Zhao Bei to change his strategy for these few bluffs, so after Zhu Erdian finished these words, all he got was a few sneers from Mr. President.

"Mr. Minister, you can tell the British government that the situation in our country is stable, and there can be no chaos, and if there is chaos, it will definitely be the result of manipulation by foreign forces, if that is the case, I will unceremoniously fight back with all my might, and this counterattack will also be thunderous."

When Zhao Bei said this, he changed his words and said: "The US government has officially sent a diplomatic note to the Japanese government, urging the Japanese government to face up to reality. The U.S. minister has confirmed to me that it may not be long before the Japanese government signs the peace talks, and then the war will be over, and after that, I hope that the whole of Asia will be peaceful, because I am a pacifist. ”

In the face of such a "mad president" Zhu Erdian, there is nothing he can do, the only thing he can do is to leave President Chiang as soon as possible and report Zhao Bei's performance to the British government word for word.

As for Zhao Bei, he quickly issued an order after Zhu Erdian left, according to the president's order. All the Chinese army units in the Yalu River theater have been regrouped and completed their strategic mobilization, and as long as the president gives the order, these troops can cross the Yalu River at any time and advance deep into the Korean Peninsula.

At the same time, Zhao Bei also issued another order to the Military Intelligence Bureau, ordering the intelligence agencies in various parts of the South Seas to cooperate closely and completely solve the problem of the League in the short term, so as to prevent that organization from being used by the British government.
