Spain's civil war is still scorching and tangled, with the two sides fighting on two fronts, the north and the south, and Madrid and the Basque Country are almost in the paste. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

This is not a quick battle, neither side has that kind of organizational ability, and loose armies can only fight tangled wars.

Under the guidance of the big brother of Soviet Russia, the Spanish Bushviks purged many oppositionists, not limited to the old bureaucracy, the old aristocracy and church forces in the past, and even a comrade-in-arms in the trenches were also purged, what socialist parties, trade unions organized, and the organizations that formed the popular front together in the past were either swallowed by the Bushviks or disbanded, and the top brass was arrested and shot.

But after such a thorough purge, they still can't cohesive internally, because there are still local separatism, Catalonia where Barcelona is located, the Basque country where Bilbao is located, these industrially developed regions have always wanted to be separated, and this is still the case until the 21st century, Real Madrid and Barcelona play football, fans are like wars, people will be killed at every turn, if Spain dares to vote like the United Kingdom allowed Scotland, these areas will be ironclad.

Now these local forces are on the side of the government of the republic, and they have no organization, they have only established some militias, and the republic is not easy to find targets even if it is purged, but these militias are very loose, and they have no interest in fighting, the front line is very fierce, but they have nothing to do in the rear, what they want is only to stand up, not to sell their lives to either side, neither to sell their lives to Franco, nor to sell their lives to the government, just because Franco is on the side of the king and the great nobles, That's why they had to oppose Franco, and to oppose Franco they had to side with Franco's opponents, the government of the Republic.

Separatism is serious in these localities, they are industrially developed, have a large population, and do not obey the government's orders very much, so it is very difficult for the government to mobilize resources, at least it is difficult to produce weapons and equipment, and it is difficult to guarantee even food, so it has to become more and more international columns.

But the internal struggle of the international column is still fierce, and the Chinese forces are becoming more and more confident in speaking with Yang Yuting's achievements, and they are no longer very obedient to the forces of Soviet Russia, when Vladimir forcibly dissolved the Second International founded by Engels and forcibly formed the Third International in Moscow, isn't it just to let Soviet Russia lead and control the world GC movement, but their Third International is not recognized by many countries, and the French are more willing to accept the Second International in Paris that year, Sweden and other Nordic people gradually developed their own workers' parties because of the Second International, with the result that Vladimir dissolved the Second International, and the workers' international movement was dissolved with it.

Participation in political power by legal and peaceful means, fighting for the interests of the workers, turning it into illegal and violent means to seize power and make the workers the masters, but the latter was reduced to only slogans in the end, and the workers of Soviet Russia only saw from the newspapers that they were masters, but in fact they had become industrial slaves, and under Stalin's notice, they would face prison if they were more than three minutes late, and they might be sent to concentration camps for reform.

If it weren't for the fact that Soviet Russia had done so and made a stink of workers' organizations, perhaps within 30 years, workers all over the world would have won a relatively equal position.

It can only be said that history is so magical, sometimes it seems to have taken a big step, only to look back and realize that it has gone in the wrong direction.

The Spaniards are now striding in this direction, fortunately they have billions of dollars in counterfeit banknotes in their hands, much stronger than in history, at the end of last year, before the Chinese ended to use aircraft carriers to cover the delivery of goods, they received a large number of weapons from Mexico, Soviet Russia, although tanks, planes and other equipment are insufficient, but they have a reserve of 3 million rifles and more than 5,000 cannons of various types, as well as enough ammunition to fight for a year.

Yang Yuting's hands also have sufficient weapons and equipment, although the bigger the less, but he also learned to be thrifty, plus began to pay attention to the capture of Franco's army weapons and equipment, he was ready to fight for another two years, Franco's camp mercenaries are not easy to deal with, the Germans are not easy to deal with, but the Italian army, and Franco's rebels, are not difficult to deal with, a large number of surrenders at every turn, the Italians have a lot of good goods in their hands.

At this time, Yang Yuting received a secret telegram from Zhang Zuolin, conveying Yang Chao's meaning, hoping that he could accept the appointment of the commander-in-chief of the Tsar Knights.

This appointment made Yang Yuting's heart pound, as a Japanese general who was not valued by the high-level, he had been wronged for many years. Yang Chao's appointment is not just an appointment, it is a recognition.

But he is also hesitant, should he give up everything now and go back to China?

He called Zhang Zuolin again and asked him if he wanted to return to China immediately, and Zhang Zuolin told him to let him fight for a while and wait for orders. At the same time, he told him that he should pay attention to preserving his strength, and that as many people he brought back in the future, he would join the Tsar Knights, and told Yang Yuting meaningfully that no matter when, there should be some old brothers of his own.

Zhang Zuolin's words are very heartwarming, he has always regarded Zhang Zuolin as a big brother, the senior, from where he learned a lot, yes, you have to have your own brother, this is the capital of a man's life, not a person who is really good to you, will not tell you this.

After that, Yang Yuting suddenly became passive in the war.

Previously, he led the Chinese and Jewish brigades, fought jointly, and repeatedly formed a total annihilation of Franco's army, the most brilliant was the total annihilation of three Italian integrated divisions in Bilbao in the second half of last year, he was already a world-class famous general, at least in the Soviet Russian camp, and was famous in the world workers' organizations.

But his relationship with the Russians was really not good, through the prestige established by successive victories, through the international brigades that had been captured and distributed to some other countries, and now the eleventh and twelfth brigades composed of French and Belgians had also formed an alliance with him, and the number of troops that could be mobilized in his hands had reached four brigades, accounting for half of the eight international brigades, and the general level of equipment was relatively good, and the number of veterans was large.

These brigades are willing to listen to Yang Yuting's command, that is because Yang Yuting does not command indiscriminately, and the promotion of officers does not look at the political background, but only on experience and ability; with his help, these international brigades are relatively professional and have been fighting for more than a year, and the brigades led by the leaders of Soviet Russia are still in a mess, and the internal struggle for power and profit is fierce.

Yang Yuting never sought to seize all the power in his own hands, but made people willing to accept his leadership, but in the end, the name was not right, he could not win a legal appointment for himself, and at present, he is only leading these four seriously overnumbered brigades as a division commander given by the Spanish Republic government, with a total number of nearly 30,000 people, and it is almost the same to expand into four divisions.

Since the passive war, the leaders of GC International have been caught, and they have brought the lawsuit to Moscow, asking where the Chinese representative to give an explanation, and at the same time putting pressure on the Spanish prime minister to show that Yang Yuting is avoiding the war, which is a passive and war-fearing attitude, if it is in the Soviet Russian army, it will be caught and shot.

The Spanish government has become more and more impatient with the advisers of Soviet Russia, and to put it bluntly, it still has less dependence on Soviet Russia, and there is no longer a time to ask for them, so naturally there is no need to give them a good look.

Soviet Russia took away more than 500 tons of gold, which their ancestors did not know how many years they had robbed to leave this bit of family wealth, but Soviet Russia did not give them enough arms and weapons to support their class brothers, and Soviet Russia actually made money, which has seriously hurt the hearts of the Spanish comrades.

Compared with Yang Yuting, it is much more reassuring, in addition to fighting, people have never pointed fingers at the Spanish government, and they used to point where to fight, and they are easy to use, where there is danger, just look for Yang Yuting, you can't be wrong.

Despite his impatience, the Russian adviser still had to give face, and in front of the Russian adviser, he called Yang Yuting and asked why he did not actively attack, causing a regiment of Franco's Foreign Legion to escape from the encirclement.

Yang Yuting explained that their supplies were exhausted, and without the cover of tanks, he was worried that there was an ambush on Franco's side, and the other party's regiment was just a decoy, and from a purely military point of view, he assured with his professional vision that Franco must have set up an ambush at that time.

The Russian advisers scolded the 'nonsense' and left angrily.

Spanish Prime Minister José Hilal believes more in the words of the Chinese, he likes the professional military demeanor of others, where are these advisers like Soviet Russia, who regard themselves as the president of Spain? To himself, the prime minister, he is drinking back and forth.

José is a staunch pro-belligerent, and his predecessor was ousted because he wanted to negotiate with Franco, and he will never negotiate. But the current development of the war situation made him feel less confident.

After the arms from China were cut off, their supplies became more and more problematic, and now they rely on smuggling, and they get arms from various countries in a scattered manner, including France, Britain, the United States, Mexico, and Belgium.

The war lasted for more than a year, and domestic grain production was greatly affected, according to the Soviet Russian advisers, it was the stubborn Spanish big landowners and rich peasants, who hid their grain and plotted to starve the great republic, and they got the news that there were a large number of Franco supporters in Madrid and other places, plotting to rebel.

Soviet Russian advisers have already purged the conspirators, many of whom are internationalist fighters with guns and wounded many times, who have been arrested and executed simply because their identity background is somewhat suspicious and they cannot prove their relationship with certain relatives, such as Churchill's nephew, who died in this way.

"Let them go to the countryside to collect grain, they have experience."

After thinking deeply, José thought that he could not let the Russians continue to stay on the front line, otherwise his army would not be killed by Franco, and it would be killed by these people, no wonder the Chinese resisted them, and it was impossible for him to let the loyal fighters who shared the hardships and hardships be investigated by these people.
