Chapter 304: Three or Four Years of Trouble
Three or four years is a year of development of Huaxing company, and it is also a relatively stable year for the Republic of China.
This year, God also took care of the Chinese people, not to mention that the wind and rain were smooth, at least there was no catastrophe like in previous years.
In April of that year, with the strong support of the Chinese Soviets, patriots gathered in Shanghai to issue the "Basic Program for the Chinese People's War against Japan," calling on the Chinese nation to defend itself with arms and expel Japanese imperialism from China.
It was at the time of the release of this program that the Japanese Kwantung Army, after a year of preparation, finally began to attack the last formed resistance army in the northeast, Ma Zhanshanbu.
In other words, the suppression of bandits in Liaoning and Jilin had been basically completed, and after the regime of the puppet state of Manchukuo had been basically stabilized, the Kwantung Army finally aimed its fangs at the Ma Zhanshan Division.
The Japanese army sent a regular division, with the assistance of 20,000 puppet troops and 60,000 armed expatriates, to first attack the bandits from all walks of life in Heilongjiang, and then began to gradually drive the bandits in the area to the Heihe area, the base camp of Ma Zhanshan, by expelling one area and occupying one area.
In just three months, all the bandits from all over Heilongjiang were driven to the boundary of Ma Zhanshan, and as a result, the number of men and horses in Ma Zhanshan was greatly increased.
When the Japanese army attacked the Zhihei River area, although the Mazhan Mountain Department already had nearly 60,000 bandit troops, because of the mixed personnel and poor military training of the soldiers, they were repeatedly defeated in the face of the Kwantung Army, which had superior troops.
Although Ma Zhanshan received a lot of military assistance from Li Tie, these bandits with strong individual combat ability were okay to fight a tailwind battle, allowing them to fight against the Japanese army, and they were really not the opponents of the Japanese army.
However, Ma Zhanshan relied on his familiarity with the terrain and was always able to lead the crowd to break through. However, with the successive victories of the Japanese army, Ma Zhanshan could only slowly retreat towards his base camp, Heihe County.
From the beginning of the Japanese army's attack on Ma Zhanshan, in just two weeks, the Ma Zhanshan Division, which had been entrenched in the Heilongjiang region for many years, was defeated by the Kwantung Army, and Ma Zhanshan could only lead tens of thousands of defeated troops to retreat to the Heihe area on the Sino-Russian border.
Ma Zhanshan hoped to use the iron bucket that Heihe County had already let himself operate, and at the same time, the city walls were also heightened and reinforced, so Ma Zhanshan led these tens of thousands of bandits to fight a bloody battle with the Japanese army in Heihe County.
Although Ma Zhanshan occupied the time, heaven, and people this time, under the bombardment of the Kwantung Army's aircraft and artillery, Ma Zhanshan was defeated again.
Fortunately, although the 60,000 bandits could not fight a tough battle, they were indeed unmatched when they escaped, so although the tens of thousands of bandits were defeated repeatedly, the loss of personnel was not great.
In the end, Ma Zhanshan also felt that he could not resist the frontal attack of the Japanese army, and finally had to retreat to the Huaxing Special Economic Zone on the Russian side of Heilongjiang that Governor Popov had assigned to him to recuperate.
And Ma Zhanshan's retreat into Russia does not matter, but the Japanese Kwantung Army, which is now finished, will not be able to advance or retreat.
Offense, right? That's the territory of the Russians, it will cause disputes between the two countries, don't attack, right? As long as Ma Zhanshan rests for a while, he can lead his troops to fight again and retreat, right? The bandits in Heilongjiang will resurge, will they not retreat, right? A division was stationed in the small Heihe area, which was really a bit crowded.
Moreover, the transportation of supplies on the labor expedition was also a big problem. In the absence of any choice, the Kwantung Army had no choice but to report the situation to Japan.
Ask the country to communicate with Russia to see if the Japanese army can be allowed to pursue across the border, or bother the Russians to drive these tens of thousands of bandits back to Heilongjiang so as to facilitate the encirclement and suppression of the Kwantung Army.
When the Japanese ambassador submitted this opinion to the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union, which had already begun to be busy with internal purges, simply did not have time to pay attention to the Japanese ambassador.
However, there are still opinions, first of all, they will not allow the Japanese army to cross the border to pursue. In addition, they in the Soviet Union are in the process of a nationwide rectification, where do they have extra energy to help you suppress bandits.
As for the Japanese ambassador's statement that tens of thousands of bandits entered the Russian side of Heilongjiang, it is even more nonsense, because judging by the information sent back by the Governor-General of Popov in the Far East.
It's just that they have just recruited tens of thousands of loggers from China. Because everyone knows that there are very few Russians in the Far East, and if you want to develop the Heilongjiang Special Economic Zone, it is far from enough to rely on the few Russian people there.
It is even more impossible for the Japanese ambassador to prove that these people are the bandits they are pursuing, because Governor Popov has said that when they came to Russia, they were all law-abiding citizens.
These people not only helped the local people to build bridges and pave roads, but also helped the local Russians build many sturdy and durable houses. Have you ever seen such a hard-working and law-abiding bandit?
The most satisfying thing for the Soviets was that they had done so much and that these people did not pay for it, which is simply something that only selfless Soviet people can do.
Therefore, the Soviet Union was very satisfied with the situation in the Far East, and asked the Japanese ambassador not to mention such unwarranted matters, let alone to interfere in Russia's internal affairs on the grounds of bandits' entry.
Hearing the final reply of the Soviet Union, the Japanese government was also very helpless, so it could only hoard heavy troops in the border area of Heilongjiang and always guard against Ma Zhanshan's return.
For a while, a situation of confrontation between Ma Zhanshan and the Japanese Kwantung Army across the river was formed on both sides of the Heilongjiang River, which greatly involved the energy of the Japanese Kwantung Army. It also slowed down the pace of the Kwantung Army's preparation to march into North China from the side.
On June 30 of that year, Li Tie's good friend, Hitler, launched the long-planned Night of the Long Knife, which almost wiped out the leaders of the German conservatives.
However, in the end, Hindenburg's warning was not fully accomplished. Seeing that Hindenburg, who is already old and suffering from Alzheimer's disease, has a good IQ and bad times, this physical and mental head can last for another two years.
With Hindenburg controlling the government at home, when did Hitler really take charge? Seeing that the world situation is becoming more and more chaotic, the domestic situation is also becoming more and more tense.
So Hitler couldn't wait, and it was at this time that Hitler asked Li Tie again to assassinate Hindenburg. Because he knew that only Li Tie had the ability to kill Hinden silently.
At this time, Li Tie's second daughter had just reached the full moon and received an encrypted telegram from Hitler, he recalled the specific situation in Germany at this time, and Li Tie knew that his opportunity to blackmail Hitler had come.
So this time Li Tie did not refuse, he introduced Hitler to an old Chinese medicine doctor, and went to Berlin for the reason of Hindenburg's physical examination.
In the end, the old Chinese medicine doctor was introduced by Hitler to personally examine Hindenburg's body, but because Hindenburg was too old, he could only say that he could not do anything.
Hitler, who was not without regrets, could only pretend to be sorry to send away the old Chinese medicine doctor arranged by Li Tie. When he was parting with Hitler, the old Chinese medicine doctor told Hitler that he had finished the matter, and that he only needed to go back and listen to Li Tie's good news.
Just when Hitler was puzzled, a telegram from Li Tie was photographed from Shanghai. There is a sentence in the content: "Please prepare to ascend the throne before August 2." ”
Looking at such an accurate date, Hitler was shocked, could it be that the old Chinese medicine doctor could kill Hindenburg by simply touching his wrist and stroking his whole body a few times?
And in front of a group of medical and surgical doctors. Secretly completed the assassination in front of a group of ministers? Then this old Chinese medicine doctor is too experienced, right?
But what happened was so incomprehensible that on August 1, Hindenburg, which had been inspecting East Ruz, suddenly developed symptoms of heart failure.
Fortunately, Hitler was by his side at that time, and Hindenburg only had time to tell Hitler to reorganize the cabinet and lead the German people to prosperity and strength before he died, and he left.
For a moment, there was great joy in his heart, and Hitler, who was extremely grief-stricken on the surface, shed crocodile tears and shouted in his heart:
"Li Tie's old Chinese medicine doctor is too experienced, this Hindenburg said that he would die if he died, haha! I've made it through. German people, just wait for me to lead you to world domination. ”
On 2 August, Mr. Hitler finally got his wish and became the supreme leader of Germany, and announced to the outside world that the supreme leader of Germany would no longer be called president or chancellor, but would use the title of head of state proposed by Li Tie.
On the very day of his puff of state, Hitler secretly sent a diplomatic mission to Shanghai, China, where his mission was to sign a land sale agreement with Li Tie in his own name.
As for the content of the agreement, the representatives of the mission seemed to be very child's play, but the head of state and Li Tie were very serious, and their mission was also given a gag order, and if it was leaked, it would be immediately executed.
A month after Hitler was elected head of Germany, the Soviet Union was finally recognized by the majority of the international community, and in late September of the same year, they officially joined the League of Nations, the predecessor of the United Nations.
In October, after a year of bitter fighting, the Chinese Soviets failed in their counter-encirclement campaign under the blind command of the Soviet dogmatic leaders, and the Red Army commanders and fighters in the entire Soviet area began an all-out long march on 10 October. In order to break through the encirclement of the national army.
In November of this year, the 80,000 soldiers of the Red Army had broken through the three lines of defense of the Nationalist Army in succession and reached the south bank of the Xiangjiang River. After a detour through Tibet, Qinghai finally reached Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia, where the strategic goal of building a base area in Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia was established.
However, the people of the Nationalist Army were not all fools, and in addition to the confusion of the leadership of the Red Army at this time, on the south bank of the Xiangjiang River, 80,000 Red Army soldiers were blocked by hundreds of thousands of troops.
More than 80,000 Red Army soldiers finally succeeded in forcibly crossing the Xiangjiang River after several hard battles, leaving the pursuers behind for the time being, but the 80,000 soldiers had been sharply reduced to more than 30,000.
It was at this time that Liu Xiang, who had just successfully fought with his uncle Liu Wenhui for control of Sichuan in September and became the new king of Sichuan, was invited by Commander Chiang to lead troops out of Sichuan to block the exhausted Red Army that had just passed the Xiangjiang River on the north bank of the Xiangjiang River again.
