Chapter 337: Nomenkan truces, Zhou Gong goes to the Soviet Union
September 16, 1939. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Nomenkan.
In accordance with the armistice, the parties agreed to set up a mixed commission, composed of two representatives of the Soviet Union, Mongolia, Japan, and "Manchukuo," to determine the border between the Mongolian People's Republic and "Manchukuo."
Today, the meeting was held at the front command of the Soviet army on the territory of Outer Mongolia.
The negotiating table consisted of a dozen shell boxes, with four representatives of the Soviet Union and Mongolia sitting on one side and four representatives of Japan and Manchukuo on the other. Behind the representatives of Japan and Manchukuo were interpreters, and the meeting was conducted in Russian. At either end of the table were the staff officers of both sides, who were responsible for recording and preparing documents.
The representative of Japan took the floor and said: "We propose that the main discussion today be the exchange of prisoners of war. There are also several officers of our army who have been captured by you, the division commanders of the four divisions, the wing commanders. We want to exchange. ”
Representative of the Soviet Army: "However, your officers are not our prisoners. ”
Japan said, "Yes." You have taken them captive. ”
Representative of the Soviet Army: "I can tell you that your officers are not prisoners of ours, but of the partisans." ”
Japan said: "I know that the Northeast Coalition Army did it. However, the Northeast Coalition is your subordinate, please command them and participate in the exchange of prisoners. ”
In fact, the Japanese army knew that Xiaolu participated in the war, and some guerrillas participated in the war, probably because they captured these people.
Representative of the Soviet Army: "It is a pity that we are ready to make efforts for this for the sake of the signing of the agreement." However, the Northeast Coalition Army is not our subordinate. We can never command them. There's nothing we can do about it. ”
The Japanese army, now in soft stature, continued to negotiate with the Soviet Union. After talking for a long time, they realized that the Soviet Union was indeed incapable of commanding the Northeast Coalition Army, so they continued negotiations with the Soviet Union on the exchange of prisoners.
Is the exchange of prisoners an exchange of all employees, or an equal number of exchanges? Is it an immediate exchange, or is it a batch exchange? After talking for a long time, the four parties all felt that there was another party at the negotiating table, and that was the Northeast Coalition Army.
Except for the Soviet army's request for some skilled Japanese prisoners of war, Koji did not participate in their negotiations.
Before the armistice between the Soviet Union and Japan, Zhukov had informed General Lu Xiaoming and demanded that the Northeast Coalition immediately stop fighting.
Koji obeyed this decision, but his subordinates, from the officers and soldiers, did not obey and dragged their feet in carrying out the order. Zhukov didn't like to press him with a big hat because he owed Xiaolu a favor, so he talked to Xiaolu again.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Lu's request was very simple, as long as I was given some Japanese prisoners, all the weapons of the Japanese prisoners, and the Soviet side informed the Japanese side not to prevent us from collecting war trophies, I would actively cooperate with the armistice and severely punish the generals who broke the armistice.
In fact, Xiaolu had already discussed all this with Yan'an in advance.
Xiaolu knows that there is a lot at stake, first, it is impossible to prevent an armistice, and second, it is impossible to participate in negotiations. He sent a telegram to northern Shaanxi, made a detailed report on the results of the entire campaign, and expressed his own opinions.
In the telegram, Koji also said that it was impossible for us to participate in the negotiations: we would continue to fight, and we would destroy the Japanese on Chinese soil. But now, we need to cooperate with the USSR and stop fighting on the Nomenkan front.
Northern Shaanxi was busy dealing with two things, one was dealing with the hostile behavior of the Kuomintang, and the other was to rectify the internal situation. Northern Shaanxi was very appreciative of Xiaolu's victory, especially knowing that he had obtained 20,000 or 30,000 Japanese equipment, and was very pleased, hoping that he would fight steadily and steadily expand his army. Northern Shaanxi also praised the cooperation with the Soviet Union.
There are some things that Xiaolu didn't say, such as setting up a situation to harm the Soviet Union, causing the Soviet army to lose troops and annihilate more Japanese troops.
The establishment of Xiaolu this time greatly increased the casualties of the Japanese and Soviet troops. Such casualties hurt the USSR greatly. If there were no casualties, then these officers and soldiers who had experienced three-dimensional warfare would have become the backbone and brought out many extremely powerful troops in a very short time. If the troops were not strong enough, Stalin's war against Germany would have been much more difficult.
If Stalin had to concentrate on dealing with Germany, Japan might be like a devil who had been put out of a bottle, causing trouble behind the Soviet Union. If Japan were to attack the Soviet Union by some coincidence, Germany would have more forces to deal with the United States, and it would be the Soviet Union, Germany, Japan, and the United States.
Then China's living space will increase, and if it is done well, China will become a great power in the world. This is on the plus side.
Of course, there is also a downside to this situation, and Japan will not have enough strength to deal with the United States when it competes with the Soviet Union. If it is not done well, there will be a situation in which the United States is the dominant power after the war.
However, there are some new techniques that can be used to influence the situation.
This round is just the beginning. In the future, there will be many historical turns, and there will still be opportunities to make a game.
Taking advantage of their negotiations, Xiaolu commanded the troops to make a fortune, and after taking the Bai'a line again, he used the captured trains to transport the captured materials one by one.
The remaining Japanese forces were concentrated in Hailar, and the southern part of the battlefield was very empty, and the small road occupied the area again near the end of the battle in order to carry away the captured supplies. The Northeast Democratic Alliance Army pressed the border and captured the cities along the Bai'a Line again, all the way to Wangye Temple. The defenders of the Hung Yen Tunnel Fort no longer have the will to fight. As soon as the army arrived, the Japanese puppet army immediately ran away.
The defenders of Baichengzi only had a few devils, and they were always listening to the movements of the army, and they were very flustered.
This time, the gains of the Democratic Alliance are still huge.
Luo Cequn felt early on that the results of this operation would be very great, and he personally led the equipment troops to come, followed by a thousand of the most capable men and the best weapon repair technicians. Today, his men and horses are divided into two parts, one is organizing the transportation of war booty in Outer Mongolia and the Soviet Union, and the other is already in Wuchagou to start the construction and sorting of weapons.
This time, more than 20,000 intact rifles, 1 million rounds of ammunition, and more than 50,000 rifles that could be repaired were captured; More than fifty cannons available, thousands of shells, more than a hundred cannons that can be repaired; There are more than two dozen tanks available, two hundred dozens of tons of oil, thousands of tank shells, and more than a hundred tanks that can be repaired; 200 mortars, thousands**; more than 500 grenadiers, more than 5,000 grenades; 40,000 steel helmets, 40,000 water bottles, 30,000 sets of luggage, 2,000 horses, more than 20 radio stations; dozens of aircraft wreckage, dozens of tons of aviation fuel; Thirty cars, more than a hundred carriages, and an endless number of shells, an endless number of bullet shells.
Later, according to the statistics and analysis of the equipment department, the materials seized this time were worth hundreds of millions of yen, and tens of thousands of people transported them for a month, almost all the coal stored on the railway line was used up, and half of the seized oil was consumed. The Northeast Coalition Army made a fortune this time.
The transportation is divided into three routes, one is in the outer gate and the territory of the Soviet Union, many large items are stored in Outer Mongolia, transported to the railway side of the Soviet Union, and then transported back to Yichun.
The second route was small weapons, which were transported to the mountains of the Great Khing'an Mountains through the Arshan-Bai'an Railway, and then gradually transported back to the various units. These weapons and ammunition can be used as is.
The third road is dozens of tanks, fuel, cars. The Northeast Coalition Army transported large wooden platoons from the Haraha River to Heilongjiang, and transported them back to Yichun before the river was closed.
The only regret is that there are only a few dozen tons of grain, which is quickly eaten. Now, the troops are eating Lin Meng's family money.
The Soviet army also wanted to seize supplies, but unfortunately, the Soviet Union liked good equipment, not tattered, plus the Northeast Coalition Army came to save lives at a critical moment, plus the other party also provided precious medicines, saving countless people, and the voice of calculating gains and losses was much weaker.
At the same time as the negotiations, Xiaolu got the news that Zhou Gong had set off for the Soviet Union.
September 16, 1939. Yan'an Airport.
Zhou Gong went to the Soviet Union today. Since Xiaolu played a role in Nomenkan and came up with pharmaceutical technology, negotiating with the Soviet Union was not something that people of Xiaolu's level could do, and the Soviet Union began to attach importance to the role of Yan'an in the Far Eastern battlefield, and repeatedly urged Zhou Gong to come to Moscow.
Yan'an formed a delegation to Moscow, and the trip finally took place today. The head of the delegation was Zhou Gong, and the deputy head was Commander Lin and Yichun's Xiaolu, who were recuperating in the Soviet Union. However, Xiaolu did not go to the Soviet Union with them, and was only responsible for some transactional work of Yan'an and the Soviet authorities in the Far East.
Sun Weishi said goodbye to Zhou's father and Deng's mother's dormitory last night. She wanted to go along, but didn't dare to tell them. I heard that other people's children flew to the Soviet Union with Zhou's father, but they couldn't go, so I was very upset and didn't have a good night's rest.
When she got up this morning, she didn't want to go to the airport to see her off, so she put on straw sandals and went to harvest the crops. When everyone saw her, they all asked why they didn't go to see her off? The team leader is the instructor of the school, and said: Give you a holiday, go to the airport to send you Zhou Dad and Deng Mom.
Sun Weishi wore straw sandals, ran for a long time, and came to the airport.
Sun Weishi is smart by nature, and people say that she is "full of wisdom". In the past few years, I came to Yan'an, although I didn't eat well, my life was stable, and I was no longer displaced. Zhou Gong and Sister Deng both liked her very much and regarded her as their goddaughter.
Among the many children raised by Zhou Deng, they are all called "Uncle Zhou" and "Mother Deng", and only Sun Weishi calls them "Dad" and "Mom". Although Sun Weishi's biological mother is also in Yan'an, and Zhou Deng is mostly in Chongqing, it has not affected her relationship with Zhou and others.
When Sun Weishi arrived at the airport, he saw that the plane had not yet started, and everyone was gossiping with Zhou Gong next to the plane, as if they were waiting for the plane to start.
The first to see her was Zhou Gong's guard Liu Jiuzhou. Liu Jiuzhou is the same age as Sun Weishi, and he was only 18 years old at the time. Although he is old, he is not as tall as Sun Weishi, so Sun Weishi calls him his younger brother.
At this time, it happened that Chen Boda's son and Chen Changhao's son were about to get on the plane and were crying.
The luggage is ready to come to the airport to make trouble, this is obvious, and the family also supports them to go to the Soviet Union, whether they approve it or not. If you don't approve it, you will make trouble.
There was no way, several leaders agreed that they got on the plane.
Sun Weishi was very unconvinced, pulled Liu Jiuzhou, who was standing next to Zhou Gong, and whispered: "Brother, you tell me and my father, I will also go to the Soviet Union with you." Liu Jiuzhou was not easy to refuse, and he was a little unhappy, so he said to Zhou Gong: "Vice chairman, Weishi also wants to go to the Soviet Union with us." ”
When Zhou Gong heard this, his eyebrows straightened and he said: "I went to the Soviet Union for treatment, it was decided by the Party Central Committee and approved by Chairman Mao, how can you say that you will go?" ”
Sun Weishi originally knew that this was the result, but when he really heard it, he didn't even have the last hope, and he was very disappointed.
Deng Fa, the principal of the Central Higher Party School, heard it and felt that she shouldn't be so harsh on a child, and if everyone else's family went, she could also go. His mind was extremely flexible, and he said: "Weishi, if you really want to go to the Soviet Union with your parents, then you can ride my horse to find Chairman Mao now, I'm afraid it's still too late." ”
What is a group of action, now you can see. Sun Weishi didn't say a word, pulled the reins from Deng Fa's guards, flew on his horse, and went straight to Maogong's cave.
At this time, the plane is about to start.
Quickly whipped up to Mao Gong's residence. The Mao guards knew her, and when they saw that she was in a hurry, they let her go straight in.
Seeing that she was in such a hurry, Mao Gong roughly knew her intention. Zhou Gong went to the Soviet Union, and many children were going to go, he knew this.
Sun Weishi said his intention. She also has a lot of dealings with Mao Gong, and Mao Gong also likes this child. After listening, he didn't speak.
Sun Weishi was a little anxious, and wanted to say, but I saw Mao Gong pick up the brush with a smile, take a page of paper, and write the words "Agree with Sun Weishi to go to the Soviet Union", then took a puff of cigarette and muttered in his mouth: "What do you agree to do in the Soviet Union?" ”
Sun Weishi was overjoyed and said, "Study, go to the Soviet Union to study." You're not saying that you want to lay out a hundred years. The hundred-year plan lies in the cultivation of people. ”
Mao Gong laughed again, added the word "study" after the word "Soviet Union", and signed his name.
Sun Weishi was overjoyed, grabbed the note, didn't even have time to say "thank you", rushed out of the cave, and flew on the horse.
Run back to Yan'an Airport. In the distance, you can hear a roar, and it is the engine of the plane that has started. The high-speed rotation of the propeller blew dust on the airfield. The people who saw them off all stepped back, and Deng Fa was shaking hands with Zhou Gong.
Sun Weishi jumped off his horse, threw away the reins with his right hand, and held the note in his left hand, shouting, "The chairman has agreed to let me go to the Soviet Union."
At this time, Zhou Gong had already boarded the plane, and the cabin door was about to close. When Deng Fa saw him, he motioned not to close the door yet. After reading the note, he motioned for her to get on the plane, quick!
Sun Weishi boarded the plane. Zhou Gong on the plane saw the note and didn't say anything. Later, Sun Weishi speculated that judging from Zhou's father's attitude towards himself in the Soviet Union, he also hoped that he would go to the Soviet Union to study, but he was strict with himself and it was difficult to say it.
Mother Deng said, "Why are you still wearing straw sandals?" ”
The plane took off, and the plane was sent by Chongqing. They first went to Lanzhou, and then went to the Soviet Union through Dihua, Xinjiang.
This is the first time Sun Weishi has taken a plane and it is also the first time to go abroad. She didn't even have time to say goodbye to her biological mother and sisters, and she set off. Unexpectedly, this time there was no farewell itinerary, which made her life have so many wonderful changes.
Historically, her life, like a new star, exploded and produced a beautiful halo, and then quickly disappeared. I don't know if history has changed, will her life follow the same trajectory?
Deng's mother asked her to sit beside her. She walked with Sun Weishi, and she didn't know how happy she was. It's time to find her a pair of shoes and change them out. When I arrived in Lanzhou, I finished her luggage.
