At noon that day, Ouyang Jian was invited to a famous hotel in Ruijin. Those present were Runzhi, Enlai, Zhu De, Chen Yi, Xiang Ying, Bogu, Wang Jiaxiang, Liu Shaoqi, etc. Li De was not present, and he was in a very low mood during this period of time, and often used alcohol to kill his sorrows. Ouyang Jian did what he liked and sent someone to get him a lot of Moutai, and Li De quickly became addicted and became attached to Moutai. Due to the linguistic "barrier" and being marginalized, he basically does not participate in any meetings and activities. This military adviser, appointed by the Comintern, became indifferent.

After all, Bogu is young and doesn't have any city government, especially under Ouyang Jian's "strength", with the help of Enlai's step-by-step persuasion, his thinking has changed greatly, and he began to have a clear understanding of the current situation, and at the same time, Bogu became happy about the superposition of information from the Jiujiang base area, as well as Ouyang Jian's "brazenness" frequent harassment. Lin and Peng Dehuai were not present, and the two returned to the army and began to integrate the regularization of the army. In accordance with Ouyang Jian's suggestion, the Central Military Commission issued a complete outline for the building of new-type troops, requiring all Red Army units to resolutely implement it.

After the wine and food were placed on the table, Ouyang Jian said wittily: "Comrades, I want to make it clear that this is not public money, I paid out of my own pocket. All of you have families, and I feed the whole family and don't go hungry, so I have saved up my monthly salary, and I am a veritable rich man compared to you! I'm a local tyrant who deserves to be slaughtered! Runzhi smiled: "So we can only eat you, don't be polite, since you are fighting a local tyrant, throw off your cheeks and eat it!" "Everyone unceremoniously moved chopsticks one after another, and the wine was over three rounds and the dishes were five flavors. Runzhi seemed to remember something confused and asked, "Brother Ouyang, where did you get the information about Soviet Russia?" ”

Regarding this issue, Ouyang Jian knew that sooner or later he would have to have a reasonable explanation, otherwise Li De's testimony alone would not be convincing. Ouyang Jian was obviously prepared and said without thinking: "Dark Arrow has a special organization in Shanghai to collect economic intelligence. The source of this information is the Japanese Extra-High School. Japan has been collecting intelligence on the Soviet Union and Russia for a long time, and it has been extremely efficient. Experts from the Japanese intelligence agencies learned through the Soviet and Russian media that there were natural disasters in some parts of Soviet Russia, and they began to pay close attention. ”

Ouyang Jian continued: "In fact, natural disasters only break out in local areas, and will not cause large-scale famine. Soviet Russia has a vast land, so it is unlikely that local natural disasters will produce such a bad situation. Through various means, Japan searched for economic intelligence on the Soviet Union and Russia, and through repeated analysis by experts, they came to the conclusion that the outbreak of the Great Famine in Soviet Russia was not a natural disaster but a man-made disaster. The reason was that the Soviet government blindly promoted collective farms, which in turn caused extreme dissatisfaction and even revolt among the peasants. The peasants were forcibly incorporated into collective farms, which was the main reason for the poor grain harvest in Soviet Russia, and the region that suffered the most from famine was Ukraine. ”

"According to the information provided by the Japanese Tegaoke, we have information about the outbreak of the Great Famine in Soviet Russia. So far, the whole of Ukraine has fallen into widespread famine, and a conservative estimate is that 5 million people have now starved to death, which is still a conservative estimate. According to the analysis of the Japanese government, this is a genocidal policy adopted by the Soviet and Russian governments, and the political situation has been unstable since Ukraine joined the Soviet Union. However, Japan's analysis is not necessarily accurate, but there is no doubt that a large-scale famine broke out in Soviet Russia. Comrade Li De went all the way to the Far East via the Trans-Siberian Railway, and the scenes he saw along the way were by no means groundless! ”

"Why didn't Japan expose that? Isn't this an opportunity to strike at Soviet Russia? "Runzhi is confused. Ouyang Jian said: "The annexation of the three eastern provinces by the Japanese army directly threatens the interests of Soviet Russia in the Far East, but the attitude of non-interference adopted by Soviet Russia is actually acquiescing in the military action of the Japanese army. The Japanese government's silence was also due to the fact that it did not want to provoke Soviet Russia, and each sought what it needed to reach some tacit understanding. In fact, in the eyes of Soviet Russia, we are small chess pieces that will be abandoned at any time. This is the game between the great powers, and I am not polite to say that even if our red regime is established in the whole country in the future, Soviet Russia, out of its own interests, will check and balance us, and this is the relationship between the great powers. ”

"Brother Ouyang said it very well, a strong China is not in the interests of Soviet Russia, and we should be soberly aware of this. In 29, a conflict broke out between Soviet Russia and the Northeast Army, and the Black Blind Island on the main channel of the Ussuri River and the Heilongjiang River was forcibly occupied, and I am talking about military occupation, which has not been returned so far. Is this something that a socialist country should do? Comrades, Commander Ouyang is clearer than us, so we can no longer distinguish between right and wrong and be at the mercy of others! In the future, we must establish a relationship of mutual trust and equality with the Comintern and Soviet Russia, and explore a revolutionary road suitable for China's development! Runyuki's expression was very firm.

Chen Yi said: "Comrade Runzhi summed it up very well, independence, self-reliance, and taking China's own revolutionary road is the right path of vicissitudes. Xiang Ying said: "We can no longer be confused, our fate must be in our own hands, we must learn from the Soviet model instead of copying it, and we must conform to China's national conditions." Comrade Ouyang Jian said well: Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. At present, the great debate of the whole party on the criterion of truth has become clear. Zhu De said: "If Brother Ouyang doesn't tell the ins and outs of Comrade Li De, we will still be kept in the dark, and a little captain who has just graduated is terrible to think about." ”

Enlai said happily: "The cruel struggle makes us smart, we can't always be immature, everyone forms a consensus to form a united whole, unity is strength, our future must be bright." "When it was Bogu's turn, everyone's expectant eyes revealed encouragement. Bogu was a little embarrassed and said: "The speeches of the comrades once again woke me up, and I want to dig deep into my own ideological roots and strive to keep up with everyone's footsteps as soon as possible." I will firmly support your decision, and I will be responsible for how to explain to the Comintern, even if I make a modest contribution to the cause of the Party! Everyone applauded enthusiastically, and their hearts were intertwined.

Soon the topic turned to the current situation, and everyone rushed to discuss it enthusiastically. Runzhi analyzed the Kuomintang's countermeasures. Although the Nanjing side only announced a ceasefire, it did not release any news of peace talks. Runzhi believes that it is only a matter of time before the overall situation of the peace talks has been decided. Runzhi's analysis is that at present, the two camps of the left and the right within the Kuomintang are in fierce confrontation, as evidenced by the announcement of Lao Chiang's resignation. Runyi hit the nail on the head and pointed out that Chiang Kai-shek's announcement of the lower field was to retreat and wait and see what happened. In conclusion, Runzhi pointed out that the rightist clique headed by Chiang Kai-shek certainly opposes peace talks, but peace talks are the trend of the times, and no one should try to stop them. At the same time, he also pointed out that there will be many difficulties in the next step of the peace talks, and Runzhi solemnly stated that in order to realize the anti-Japanese united front of the whole nation at an early date, he must promote the success of the peace talks even if he makes major concessions.

Runzhi's analysis is very incisive and accurate, especially at the political level, his unique insights make Ouyang Jian, who knows the direction of history, deeply admire, and invisibly Runzhi has become the core of the conversation, and it is a foregone conclusion that Ouyang Jian's desired result will be realized ahead of schedule. Then everyone spoke enthusiastically, and the more they spoke, the more excited they became, and the scene was warm and warm. Enlai seemed to remember something: "Brother Ouyang, I heard that the trip to Quanzhou was quite fruitful, and the trade you negotiated with the German arms dealers was wonderful, and Comrade Shaoqi, Comrade Chen Yun, and others thought it was a stroke of genius, and they all said that your economic acumen was a masterpiece. ”

Shaoqi said happily: "Brother Ouyang, when you talk about the treasure, is it fooling the German arms dealer." The goal is to make him work harder. "The Germans are not fools, if I fool him, how will I make money in the future?" Ouyang Jian said in an octave lower: "I can tell you responsibly that this place does exist, the location is in the Arabian Peninsula, it is a barren land, and no one pays attention to that land at present. "How did you know the secret?" Enlai is confused.

Ouyang Jian smiled: "Let me reiterate, the topic of oil is highly confidential and cannot be disclosed to anyone. This secret was accidentally obtained by me when I was at the Huangpu Military Academy in Guangzhou. Once, when the road was uneven, he rescued a businessman, and later we became friends. Soon the merchant became seriously ill and showed me a picture as he lay dying. This man traveled frequently to and from the Arabian Peninsula for business, and accidentally obtained a treasure map in the hands of an Arab. The Arabs say that the place indicated on the map, there is black oil. ”

"And the black oil often comes out on its own, so it's very convenient to heat the fire. The businessman thanked me for telling me the secret. And made me memorize the map backwards, and then burned the treasure map, saying it was for my safety. In recent years, with the widespread use of oil, I began to pay attention to foreign oil information, and at the same time began to study the treasure map, if only one or two points of oil are nothing, but the entire area of hundreds of kilometers is distributed with a large number of oil points, it is very illustrative. Ouyang Jian had to make up an absurd story to prevaricate the past.

"Later, as I accumulated my knowledge of oil, I concluded that there must be a large amount of oil stored in that area, and according to the principle of marine oil generation, the Persian Gulf coast of the Arabian Peninsula is fully equipped to produce large oil fields, and the burial is shallow and easy to exploit. Today's world is changing with each passing day, with the progress of science and technology, the future oil will replace coal one after another, become the blood of industry, in other words, oil is black gold, the future world will change because of oil, perhaps because of oil resources, the world war broke out between the powers again. ”

"Brother Ouyang, how can you get the benefits of giving the treasure to the German arms dealers?" Enlai asked. Ouyang Jian said: "I plan to tell Herman the secret in two years, and I will test him further in these two years." Most businessmen are profit-seeking, and I have done business with Herman a few times, and this person can basically be trusted. At present, the lands of the Arabian Peninsula are under the jurisdiction of sheikhs and belong to private domains. Large tracts of barren land are very inhospitable, and the purchase of land is basically the price of cabbage. At that time, Herman and we will each pay half of the money to buy the land. Fifty-fifty percent of future profits. ”

"My plan is this, after buying a lot of land, let Herman leak the news of the oil to the American company Mobil Oil. Americans have money, and if the results of exploration prove that oil reserves are abundant, the land there will be at a premium. Taking a step back, even if the oil reserves are not as abundant as we imagined, we will not be able to make a profit. The use of American oil companies is not only their deep pockets, but also the convenience of large imports of strategic materials from the United States. Kill two birds with one stone! ”

In fact, Ouyang Jian also has a long-term plan, so that the US oil company will set foot in the Arabian Peninsula in advance, and the huge oil treasure will trap the United States. In particular, the strategic plan of the Japanese army and the German army to converge in the Middle East will prompt the Japanese army to launch a more fierce attack on India, and the United States will pay more attention to the Chinese battlefield, which is another attempt of Ouyang Jian. If Jiangxi becomes a solid battlefield in the future, the military aid from the Americans will give the Red Army a boost. Not only that, but with the strong support of the Americans, the dividends of the War of Resistance Against Japan will be astronomical.

Everyone seemed to be listening to the book from heaven, "Haha, Brother Ouyang, peerless shrewdness, this plan is completely feasible." In fact, the reason for making money is very simple, I'm afraid I can't think of it! Runzhi was sincerely amazed. Everyone was even more overjoyed and expressed their feelings one after another. The feast lasted until late at night.
