[Anti-Japanese Iron and Blood King] Chapter 957: Southern Anhui, the New Fourth Army! (Ask for a subscription!) , ask for a monthly pass, ask for everything! ）

In recent years, due to the threat of the Japanese army, the Soviet Union has greatly strengthened its military power in the Far East, and its all-encompassing secret service organization has penetrated deeply into the northeast region. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIn addition, the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation relies on the Soviets to a certain extent, and will also help the Soviets in terms of intelligence, so it is not difficult for the Soviets to inquire about some things from the Northeast.

What's more, this time the Soviets inquired about it was not a secret in the Northeast, and soon a telegram from the Soviet Far Eastern Military District was sent to Zhukov and others.

After reading the telegram, Zhukov was taken aback, and combined with what he had seen in the Suicha Military Region these days, he was deeply shocked by the strength of Ma Zheng's department. Able to develop and grow in the gap between the Kwantung Army and the North China Front, the Eighth Route Army did have some strength and was qualified to become an ally of the great Soviet Union.

With this understanding, Zhukov once again requested a meeting with Ma Zheng and reached an intention to cooperate as soon as possible.

Ma Zheng did not refuse, but summoned Zhukov in his office.

After a full day of negotiations, the two sides finally reached a cooperation agreement. According to the agreement, the Soviet Union no longer required the Chinese communists to hand over the production technology of penicillin drugs, but Huaxia Company must resume trading with the Soviet side, and the share of goods should be increased to three times as before.

Secondly, with regard to new weapons, according to the agreement, Ma Zheng's department will give the production technology of bazooka to the Soviet side free of charge, and guide the Soviet arsenal to mass-produce this portable anti-tank equipment.

According to the regulations, as long as the Japanese army launches an attack on the Far East of the Soviet Union, as an ally of the Soviet Union, the Eighth Route Army must immediately launch a diversionary operation against the Kwantung Army in the northeast.

In return, the Soviet side will provide economic assistance to the Suicha Military Region, help Ma Zheng's unit build a factory that can produce tanks in the Suicha area, and hand over the production technology of the T26 light tank developed by the Soviet Union to the Eighth Route Army free of charge. In addition, they will secretly provide oil and other special materials for Ma Zheng's department, such as some special metals.

Of course, in order not to provoke the Japanese, the Soviet side demanded that the agreement between the two sides be carried out secretly and not publicly.

Ma Zheng naturally had no right to call the shots in this regard, and even if the matter was reported to Yan'an, after some deliberation by the chairman and others, it was decided to agree to the request of the Soviet side, and authorized Ma Zheng to handle this matter with full authority.

On February 14, Valentine's Day in the West, Ma Zheng and Zhukov signed an agreement in Datong, a famous city in northern Shanxi Province, to officially form an alliance.

Ma Zheng was naturally pleased with this alliance, Ma Zheng was very aware of the intentions of the Soviets, and the reason why they did this was entirely because they were worried that the Japanese army would cooperate with the German Army to launch an attack on the Soviet Union. But Ma Zheng knew that until the end of World War II, the Japanese had not sent troops to the Far East, let alone cooperated with Germany in attacking the Soviet Far East, so this alliance was a sure win for Ma Zheng.

The most important thing is that since the two sides stopped trade some time ago, the oil stocks of Ma Zheng's department have fallen sharply, which has had many adverse effects on the next battle of Ma Zheng's department, and this problem will naturally be solved after the alliance.

It's just that Ma Zheng wouldn't have thought that because of this alliance, they could be regarded as irritating the cautious Chairman Jiang.

Chongqing. Zeng Jiayan official residence.

In Chairman Chiang's office, several major leaders of the Nationalist Government were present, and in addition to Lao Chiang, Minister of Military Affairs He Yingqin, Minister of National Defense Chen Cheng, Chief of Staff Bai Chongxi, and Director of the Military Command Bureau Dai Li sat opposite Lao Chiang in turn.

"Yu Nong, what you said is all the truth?" Old Jiang asked with a frown.

"Back to the commission, it is true, it has been confirmed by our senior intelligence officers lurking in Yan'an that some time ago there were indeed high-level Soviet figures who went to Yan'an for a secret visit, and it seems that the leader of the team is the famous Soviet general Zhukov!" Dai replied.

"Zhukov? Could it be Zhukov who defeated the Japanese army in the Battle of Nomenkan? Lao Jiang asked in surprise.

"Yes, that's him!"

Lao Jiang said with admiration: "This person is amazing, during the Battle of Nomenkan, this person served as the commander of the 1st Group Army of the Soviet Army in Mongolia, responsible for commanding the war against Japan. In a short period of time, he successfully organized and carried out the Battle of the Harleha River, and won the victory of annihilating more than 50,000 enemies at a small cost of 9,000 dead and missing. In this battle, Zhukov showed his first edge, showing his superb command and organizational skills. ”

"Zhukov's command level is indeed remarkable, I didn't expect this person to secretly visit Yan'an, it's really unexpected!" Dai Li said in a deep voice.

"Has your intelligence department figured out the purpose of Zhukov's visit to Yan'an?" Lao Jiang asked again.

"No, such a confidential issue is not accessible to our intelligence officers, but combined with other information some time ago, we deduce that the Soviet side should have reached some kind of agreement with Yan'an, but it is not clear whether this agreement is aimed at the Japanese or against... Against..."

Lao Jiang gritted his teeth and said: "Niang Xipi, no matter who it is aimed at, such a thing is always contempt for the party-state. Moreover, in recent years, the Turkish Communist Party has become more and more presumptuous, and most of North China has become their world, so we must take precautions! ”

"Commission, now we should still take the Japanese as the first opponent, as for Yan'an, we only need to warn, and we must not use force lightly!" Chen Cheng immediately persuaded.

"Excuse me, this matter has reached the point where it is necessary to use force, Zhu Mao has reached the point of openly colluding with the Soviets, if the Soviet side vigorously supports them and the party-state to seize power, the consequences are unimaginable." Lao Jiang said loudly.

"Bench, now the situation in Europe is turbulent, Germany has given up the attack on the British Isles, and the main forces have begun to withdraw troops from Western Europe, if nothing else, the Germans are about to make a move against the Soviet Union, and it is impossible for them to support Yan'an and us to seize power at this time. I think the Soviets hoped that the Eighth Route Army would contain the Japanese army in the northeast for them, and that's it. Chen Cheng argued.

"The committee is reasonable, not to mention whether Zhu Mao and others really have the intention of seizing power, just their hundreds of thousands of troops have exceeded the limit of the party-state's tolerance. Now that the energy of the party-state is all used against the Japanese, the Eighth Route Army has the opportunity to develop rapidly. If you look at the situation in North China, you can see how strong the Eighth Route Army is, and when we defeat the Japanese one day, perhaps Yan'an's strength will already surpass ours. Bai Chongxi immediately said.

Lao Jiang said: "That's exactly the reason, you look at how many people Zhu Mao and others were in the 26th year of the Republic of China, and there were more than 40,000 people who were fully counted, and then look at the present, there are no less than 300,000 troops in Ma Zheng's department alone. 300,000! We only have a number of people in one theater, only 150,000 in the First War Zone, and only 200,000 in the Second War Zone excluding the Eighth Route Army. That is to say, the combined strength of our two theaters is only more than 300,000 people, which is only the same as Ma Zheng's department, and the Eighth Route Army still has Liu, He, Peng and other departments, and it will inevitably be a big tail in the future! ”

Chen Cheng saw that he couldn't persuade Lao Jiang to return like this, so he said: "Commission, you know the strength of the Eighth Route Army, and because of this, it is not recommended that you use force against them, after all, the outcome is unpredictable!" If the Eighth Route Army is provoked to fight back strongly, the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

Hearing this, Lao Jiang was stunned for a moment, yes, the strength of the Eighth Route Army has indeed exceeded his tolerance limit, but is it really appropriate to use force against the Eighth Route Army at this time? If the Eighth Route Army counterattacked, would they be able to defeat the other party in a short period of time?

The answer is obviously impossible, just one Ma Zheng is enough to give everyone a headache, that is a figure that even Okamura Ningji and others have a headache, and it is impossible for those generals under his command to defeat Ma Zheng in a short time, and for a while Lao Jiang fell into a dilemma.

But at this moment, Bai Chongxi pointed to a point on the map and said: "Commission, we really can't do anything about the Eighth Route Army in North China, but we can use the troops here to beat the Yan'an side." ”

Lao Jiang Ding looked at it and spit out a few words for a long time: "Southern Anhui, the New Fourth Army!" (To be continued.) )
