The common people in the occupied areas have been bored this year, and Ma Zheng is also very troubled, no, just after Chinese New Year's Eve, Yan'an sent an urgent telegram, asking him to immediately return from Shandong to Guisui, saying that there was an urgent matter that he needed to deal with.

Fortunately, Ma Zheng is now in Liaocheng, not far from Shimen, where the Suicha Military Region is stationed. Therefore, after receiving the telegram from Yan'an, Ma Zheng immediately rushed to Shimen with the guards non-stop, and then went north to Datong from there.

Now the headquarters of the Suicha Military Region has been moved from Guisui to Datong, and as for the reason, it is mainly to cooperate with Ma Zheng, the commander of the Military Region. Otherwise, every time there is something, Ma Zheng has to return to Sui from Shandong, the road is too far, not to mention that it is not safe to delay the time.

It was already the sixth day of the Lunar New Year when he returned to Datong, and when he returned to Datong, Ma Zheng learned the reason why the party Central Committee wanted him to come back urgently -- trouble came.

This trouble did not come from within, but from abroad, specifically from the Soviet Union.

Ever since Ma Zheng asked Yan'an to refuse the Comintern's rude demands, Ma Zheng knew that this matter would not end so easily, but Ma Zheng did not expect that trouble would come so quickly.

According to Xu Yinghui's report, the Soviet side called the Yan'an side as early as a month ago and demanded that the Yan'an side give a reasonable explanation, otherwise they would not mind teaching the Yan'an side a lesson. In desperation, the chairman and others had no choice but to reply to the Soviet side, saying that the reason why Huaxia Company treated the Eighth Route Army with special courtesy was mainly because of their personal relationship with Ma Zheng, commander of the Suicha Military Region, and that Yan'an could not order Huaxia Company to do anything.

But the Soviet Union obviously didn't buy this explanation, but they also knew that they couldn't force Yan'an too much, after all, the power of the CCP is not in the hands of the Moscow faction, but in the hands of the localists, and if it is forced excessively, it is likely to have unpredictable results.

Therefore, after thinking about it, the Soviet side decided to send a delegation to Yan'an for a secret visit.

In mid-January, the delegation came to Yan'an via Xinjiang, and after staying in Yan'an for a few days, they learned that Yan'an really could not intervene in Huaxia Company, so the delegation proposed to go to the Suicha Military Region, and their head bluntly said that he wanted to talk to Ma Zheng.

For such a request from the Soviet side, Yan'an naturally could not refuse, so it had to let Ma Zheng urgently return to the Suicha Military Region from the Shandong front.

After learning the reason, Ma Zheng's whole person fell into deep thought. He was well aware of the status of the Soviet Union in the hearts of all party members at this time, and it was not only a comrade, but also an example. It was precisely because of the existence of the Soviet Union that many party members and cadres saw the hope of the victory of the revolution, and they also hoped that China could become the second red Soviet Union.

Therefore, many people have blind trust in the Soviet Union, and they dig out their hearts! Because of this, even with Ma Zheng's current position, he cannot easily say no to the Soviet representatives, so the arrival of the Soviet representatives this time is indeed a difficult thing to do!

However, Ma Zheng was not too worried, although it was indeed difficult to send these people from the Soviet Union, he would not accommodate them on issues of principle, even if he turned against these Soviet representatives.

Although the consequences were serious, Ma Zheng did not care, because he knew very well that the current situation of the Soviet Union did not seem to be much better than that of China.

From the desert steppe in northern China to the vast forests and seas in northeast China, from the loess plateau with ravines and ravines to the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River with a network of water, the flames of war have ruthlessly devoured people's lives.

But the situation in the Soviet Union was not so good, and although the Soviet Union and Japan had signed a non-aggression pact, Stalin was well aware that this treaty was not necessarily binding on the Soviet Union and Japan.

You must know that just a year ago, the Soviet Union and Japan were still exchanging fire in the disputed area, and the conflict continued to escalate, especially after the outbreak of the Battle of Nomenkan, the two sides even mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops at one time.

The Soviet Union was worried.

Although Japan is a small country, the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army should not be underestimated. During the Russo-Japanese War, Tsarist Russia suffered a heavy loss at the hands of this little friend, lost part of its rights and interests in the Northeast, ceded South Sakhalin Island, lost the only ice-free port in the Pacific Ocean that it had painstakingly operated for a long time, and almost spit out the interests that Tsarist Russia had sought in the Far East for hundreds of years.

Today's Japan is far from being comparable to the Japan of the Meiji period, and if you look at the Japanese who can fight on the battlefield in China, and the sword is invincible, you can know that the Japanese are no longer what they used to be, and Stalin has no bottom in his heart when fighting against such a strong enemy.

More importantly, there was still a fierce enemy in the west eyeing the Soviet Union, and Hitler immediately abrogated the Versailles Treaty, rearmament, and regained lost territory after coming to power, and the German army, navy, and air force were quickly restored and rebuilt.

At the end of World War I, the army of the German Empire was almost completely disbanded. The Treaty of Versailles imposed clear limits on Germany's military power. Within 50 kilometers of the east and west banks of the Rhine, the German army was not allowed to fortify, the army was limited to less than 100,000, and it was not allowed to possess offensive weapons such as tanks or heavy artillery, and the German General Staff was abolished.

In addition, it is not allowed to have a navy, only 6 battleships with a displacement of 10,000 tons can be on the ship side, and submarines are not allowed. The Air Force shall not be organized, weapons shall not be imported or exported, an additional 26% fee shall be levied on exported goods, and chemical weapons shall not be produced or stockpiled.

In order to limit the number of people receiving military training, compulsory military service was abolished, and the length of service for non-commissioned officers and soldiers was extended to 12 years and 25 years for officers.

However, according to information collected by Soviet intelligence officers, as early as 1933-1934, then German Chancellor Adolf Murphy Adolf. Hitler secretly began the expansion of the German Wehrmacht, and the expansion was considerable. And on October 15, 1935, Germany officially changed the name of the Wehrmacht to the Wehrmacht.

After that, the Wehrmacht marched into the demilitarized zone of the Rhine and at the same time sent men to participate in the Spanish Civil War. Last year, the Wehrmacht occupied Austria strongly. Then the Wehrmacht occupied Czechoslovakia, and in the years that followed, Germany conquered Poland, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Finland, Sweden and other countries, and now the Germans were attacking the British Empire across the English Channel at all costs, and once Britain was finished, the next goal for the Germans was obvious.

Germany, so to speak, has bared its sharp teeth and claws, and has aimed itself at the USSR.

If it was against one side alone, the Soviet Union had nothing to worry about. After all, the Soviet Red Army was not vegetarian, and millions of troops could strike at an invading enemy at any time. But if there were two fronts, the Soviet Union would be in danger.

Moreover, what worried the Soviet side the most was the attitude of Britain, France, the United States, and other countries, and the rise of the people's revolutions of various countries after World War I and the emergence of a socialist Soviet Union, which aroused fear and hatred among imperialism. In the struggle for world hegemony, they want to weaken and defeat their competitors, oppose socialism, and suppress the people's revolution.

Because of the shadow brought by the First World War to the people of Western European countries, war-phobia prevailed in most countries, including Britain and France. Therefore, for a long time before the outbreak of World War II, Britain and France were both worried and fearful of Germany, an old rival who had been completely emasculated in World War I, fearing that this strong neighbor would rise strongly again, bringing irreparable heavy losses to Britain and France, and even more worried about its repeat of the mistakes of World War I.

Thus they resorted to a disgusting policy of appeasement, because they feared more that sanctions against Germany would immediately trigger war, which they did not want to see. Coupled with the fear and hatred of the Red Soviet Union, with the covert connivance and support of Britain, France, the United States and other countries, the defeated Germany and the strong rise of Japan became the bulwark against the Soviet Union and the thugs who suppressed the people's revolution.

Because of this, although the current Soviet Union has not yet been drawn into the war, the situation is getting worse and worse, and perhaps the next moment the war will burn to the Soviet Union itself. Therefore, Ma Zheng was not afraid of offending the Soviet Union, and if they still wanted to unconditionally seize the production technology of penicillin, Ma Zheng did not mind giving them a step down.
