"Chairman Zhou, Vice Chairman Zhang is in an emergency!"

Li Shuoxun, secretary general of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission, hurriedly knocked on the door of Zhou Elai's office. Zhou Elai's slightly melancholy voice came from the office: "Shuoxun, come in." ”

During this period, the pressure on Zhou Elai was no less than that of Luo Yaoguo, and the Central Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China held successive enlarged meetings of the Politburo to discuss the current international and domestic situation, in fact, it was to betray the Soviet Union. However, the outcome of the meeting was disappointing. Most of the comrades at the top of the Central G have special feelings for the Soviet Union, and it is difficult to accept such an obvious reality as "the possibility of the Soviet Union's demise"!

What made Zhou Elai even more worried was that the Central Revolutionary Military Commission had also received letters of war from border guards one after another during this period, all of which demanded the defense of the Soviet Union! Of course, not all border guards have such a high level of consciousness. Those border guard officers of the former Northeast Army and the National Army system were either gloating or waiting there to invade the Soviet Union, so as to take revenge! If this continues, the border guards will have to be divided.

What Li Shuoxun is now holding in his hand is a secret telegram from Zhang Xueliang, the head of the party's "anti-Soviet faction" and chief of the general staff of the border defense army.

When Li Shuoxun walked into Zhou Elai's office, he saw the leader of the Central Committee of the Central Committee of China and G standing in front of a huge military map in a daze. This is a map of the Primorsky region of the Soviet Far East, the Far Eastern part south of the Amur River, which is the essence of the entire Soviet Union in Eastern Siberia and the Far East. It is now controlled by the Kuomintang, the White Russians, and the Japanese. However, Luo Yaoguo had already promised to facilitate the seizure of the territory that should be divided to Japan according to the treaty. But the Japanese there still have to find a way to clean it up themselves! It's a bit of a prickly thought about it......

Li Shuoxun frowned, handed the telegram to Zhou Elai, and stood aside and took out a notebook and pen, ready to record Chairman Zhou's supreme instructions. Zhou Elai took the sealed telegram and opened it to read. I've only read a few lines. He slammed the table, and all the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone jumped up, and the ink splashed all over the table.

"This Zhang Xueliang! How can you be confused like this! ”

"Chairman, what do you mean by Vice Chairman Zhang?"

Zhou Elai shook his hand and handed the telegram to Li Shuoxun. In a low voice, "See for yourself." See for yourself...... Zhang Hanqing agreed to send 200,000 troops to help the Kuomintang invade the Soviet Union! What else do you say that Chinese GCD people are Chinese first, and then GCD people...... This is a war of aggression! We have already committed a big taboo by borrowing the way to the Kuomintang, so how can we still join in by ourselves? This kind of unjust war can be won even for a while. In the long run, it will fail...... Confused, confused. The Kuomintang advocated aggression, and our party opposed the war, and it was originally clear that there was a clear distinction between the two sides, but now he wants us to join the war. Even if we win, the credit belongs to the Kuomintang, and if we lose, we will be buried by the Kuomintang reactionaries! And how do we explain it to the millions of party members? ”

Lee Seok-hoon is careful. After reading the telegram carefully, he said in a low voice: "Vice Chairman Zhang's telegram also said that the Soviet Union may launch a war against Bolan at the end of this year...... The Kuomintang did not have the means to attack the USSR in the winter in order to relieve the pressure on Bolan. Their preparations for war will also be completed by the end of the year at the earliest. Moreover, the Kuomintang also planned to attack the Trans-Siberian Railway of the Soviet Union with 500,000 troops through foreign méng...... If you succeed along the way. I'm afraid that half of the USSR will be gone! Vice Chairman Zhang also asked us to do a good job of confidentiality. ”

When it came to confidential work, Zhou Elai let out a wry smile. After being silent for a while, he said softly: "We have reached an agreement with the Kuomintang, so naturally we will not tell the Soviet Union the news that they used Méng Gu, but I don't know if Wang Ming and Bogu will say it!" And there is no way to take them. Speaking of which, he raised his eyes and looked at Li Shuoxun. Please come over to Vice Chairman Mao and Chairman Xiang. ”

East Prussia, Port of Königsberg.

The German naval fleet awaited the arrival of the Chinese fleet at sea level. Led by a Königsberg-class light cruiser, they formed a formation to greet them. The warships are covered with colorful flags, which is quite a high-standard way to greet them. No matter how much these German Navy soldiers had a sense of psychological superiority over their students, the Chinese Navy, as long as they thought of the two 40,000-ton Zhenyuan-class battleships escorting the Chinese Navy transport fleet this time, they couldn't help but be in awe of this navy that came from afar! Not to mention the few German naval top brass who knew the inside story. They knew that the two most powerful battleships in the world would be sold to the German Navy after the end of the war between the Soviet Union! These two battleships are now on the German Navy's roster as "Bismarck" and "Tirpitz", while two other battleships of the "Zhenyuan" class are under construction under the Anglo-German Naval Agreement...... Although the current situation in the world in which aircraft carriers replace battleships as the main force in naval warfare has become increasingly clear, the role of battleships cannot be ignored in the North Atlantic, where the climate is harsh, and in the narrow waters of the Boluo Sea, the North Sea, and the English Channel!

The telegram had already been received from China, and the Chinese fleet would arrive off the coast of Königsberg at 5:00 p.m. next day. The winter sun shines through the clouds in the west, a pale golden glow, and the sea is full of light. Everyone was on the deck looking northwest. German sailors in sea hun shirts lined up neatly above the deck. Everyone is extremely curious about the expeditionary force from the revived old empire in the East, and they still have a little bit of a good impression. I heard that the Wehrmacht in this country was trained by the military advisers of the German Empire! With such a large country with a population of 600 million to help fight the war, World War II seems to be a sure victory, right?

Admiral Raeder, commander-in-chief of the German Navy, stood on the bridge and tapped lightly on the railing. He whispered and laughed at the chief of staff next to him, Lysteyan: "This is all the foresight of President Hindenburg!" Chinese there were four Zhenyuan-class, and by 1938 we would have two...... In this way, there are a total of six 40,000-ton large warships, although the total tonnage is only half of the tonnage of the main ships of the Navy, but it should have the strength to fight with the British Navy! ”

"Your Excellency Admiral, do you think the Chinese will agree to send their only two super-battleships to Europe?" Lieutenant General Lysteyan raised his binoculars to look at the sea level in the distance, and at this time dozens of columns of smoke could already be seen floating in the sky. The whistle could already be faintly heard.

Raeder also raised his binoculars to look at the particularly thick pillars of smoke, and laughed loudly: "Yes, the Führer promised me!" He said: The Chinese will definitely send the battleships Zhenyuan and Dingyuan to Europe. I also believe that the Führer must have a way. And if the Chinese want to be the king and hegemon in Asia, they must defeat the British Empire! And the place to defeat the British Empire can only be in Europe! As he spoke, he waved his hand vigorously, "Pass the order, let our officers and soldiers stand on the slope to greet these friends from the east, everyone should be polite, and the defeat of the British in the future will not be possible without the help of these Chinese...... As long as the British are defeated. Germany is the ruler of the world! ”

He smiled reservedly as he continued to look at the naval fleet that would help Germany defeat Britain in the future. First, two huge masts appeared in the telescope's line of sight, and then there was a forest of masts. The giant mast in front of it was hung with the flag of the army general, and then the wide bridge jumped out of the sea, it was the flagship of the Chinese Expeditionary Fleet, the battleship Ningyuan! The muzzles of the six 380mm guns on the two giant turrets in the bow point to the already dim sky to the east. exudes a murderous aura of yinsen. Then another battleship identical to the Ningyuan, the Jingyuan, was followed by a huge sea steel jungle composed of various ships. The transport fleet of an armored division of 20,000 men at a time was of course spectacular, and the Chinese Navy also sent a number of cruisers and destroyers to protect the ship regiments. Admiral Raeder knew that the Führer would have a way to keep all the Chinese naval ships here in Europe for the future world war!

……

Mao Zd, vice chairman of the Central Military Commission of the Chinese Revolution, walked quickly into the office of Zhou Elai, chairman of the Central Committee of the Central Committee of the Chinese Revolution. This time to come. He, Zhou Elai, and Xiang Ying were also busy preparing for a war. But they were not going to war with the Soviet Union, nor were they preparing for war with the Kuomintang, and the imaginary enemy of these GCDs was the Japanese Army in the Far East - at least that's what all the political cadres are saying for now! The enemy of Chinese imperialism is the Soviet Union, the enemy of the Soviet Union is Chinese imperialism, and the enemy of Japan may be China or the Soviet Union. And the CG now does not dare to openly raise the banner of opposition to the Kuomintang. We can't regard the Soviet Union, the big brother of socialism, as a mortal enemy, so we can only let the Great Japanese Empire, which everyone doesn't like, act as the enemy's horn! Moreover, China and G also regard the Far Eastern Republic as its next development direction. Then a war with Japan is probably inevitable?

Zhou Elai was looking at a report on aircraft production sent by the Air Force Bureau of the Border Guards, when he heard Mao ZD's Hunan accent shouting at the door: "E. come." The Kuomintang has already set up a wartime base camp! Zhou Elai shook his head and stood up with a wry smile, and greeted Mao ZD into the door. His face was a little solemn, and he nodded slightly at Mao Zd: "Well, they are ready to fully transfer the country to wartime!" This was all expected, they had set a rough timetable a few years ago, and the time for the attack on the Soviet Union was almost certain, about April next year. Runzhi, this is what Zhang Hanqing heard when he attended the high-level military meeting of the National Defense Forces, this is the secret telegram he sent, you can take a look first. ”

Mao ZD took the copy of the telegram on Zhou Elai's desk, glanced at it slightly, and smiled: "This Zhang Hanqing is in his thirties, how can he still be a hot-blooded young man?" Actually asked us GCD to attack the Soviet Union...... Isn't this messy? Can the comrades below understand? He placed the copy of the telegram lightly on the table. I estimate that the time for the start of the war is about the same, the Kuomintang is not yet ready, most of the troops are not yet full, the new recruits are still stepping up training, and the troops sent to Europe have just begun to be transported. By the time all this is in sight, it will be October or November this year, and the harsh winter in Siberia will not be far away. As long as Luo Yaoguo is not crazy, he will definitely not choose to fight Siberia in winter. In this way, the time for the attack will be April and May next year. ”

Zhou Elai only nodded at Mao ZD's words. Although the vice chairman of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission is the lowest status in the highest three-person group, his analytical ability and ability to grasp the overall situation are definitely the most outstanding in the three-person group.

"Runzhi, then do you say that it is possible for the Soviet Union to defeat Bolan?" Zhou E asked again. Information about the preparation of the USSR for the attack on Bolan, although it was not confirmed. But it's already spreading. After all, the mobilization, training, preparation, and assembly of millions of troops cannot be completely concealed. The CG International Mission to GC has also obtained relevant information for a long time and transmitted it back. Of course, the specific battle plan, the launch time of the offensive and other top-secret information, China G is also unknown. All Mao ZD can only be analyzed in general terms.

"Then it depends on the attitude of Germany." Mao ZD sat on the chair, took out a paper cigarette, and lit the fire. Slowly pumped up. "Bolan has been divided by Russia, Prussia and Austria three times in history, and it has only been 20 years since the restoration of the country, so naturally it cannot be compared with old powers such as Germany and the Soviet Union. If Germany and the Soviet Union reached an agreement to divide the Bolan again, then the Bolan would inevitably perish quickly! Then there could be a war between the Soviet Union and China, and a war between Germany and Britain and France...... This situation is more favorable to us.

Another scenario was that Germany did not divide the Bolan with the Soviet Union. Instead, he didn't save himself when he saw death, and let Bolan and the Soviet Union lose both, and I think this situation is more likely to occur. In this case, it will depend on who is better prepared and whose strategy and tactics are more correct, Bolan or the USSR! I expect the Kuomintang to launch an offensive in the Far East in April 1938. And the USSR had a winter to defeat Boran! After the defeat of Boran. Germany would also enter the war, so that the USSR would be locked in a two-front war after the spring of 1938! Then the situation will be dangerous. If such a situation arises, our party must prepare for the worst......"

At this moment, the loud command of the guards at the door of the office and the sound of standing up and saluting came. Both of them looked towards the door and saw Xiang Ying walking in with a heavy face. The chairman of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission looked as if he was worried about something. The gas sè is not good-looking. As soon as he entered the room, he frowned and said, "E, you should take care of the people below!" Wang Ming, Hu and the others spent all day with Soviet adviser Li De. Tell all the secrets of our party to the Soviet Union! And Jiang Dengxuan and Yu Xuezhong had a close relationship with Wu Chong, a representative of the Kuomintang...... If this continues, what secrets do we have in GCD? ”

Mao Zd smiled indifferently: "Wouldn't it be better if there were no secrets?" It's not that we don't want to keep it a secret. It's that we simply don't have the ability to keep secrets......"

……

At this time, Wang Mingzheng, together with the Soviet military adviser Li De, drove into a small airport on the outskirts of Baotou in a narrow car. The car was filled with the smell of low-quality Russian gasoline. The winter sky in Baotou is exceptionally bright and far-reaching, and there is not a trace of clouds in the blue sky, which is obviously a good day to travel by plane. In the bright sunlight, a dozen stubby I-16 fighters lulled out of the scattered underground bunkers, the red stars painted on them glowing faintly. In the middle of the runway was parked a transport plane converted from a four-engine TB-3 bomber, the gangway on one side of the fuselage had been lowered, and several Soviet pilots were smoking cigarettes in the open space next to the plane, and when they saw Lid's car coming, they all walked up the ramp to the plane.

"Comrade Wang Ming, the information you provided is very important to the World Anti-Fascist War!" "On behalf of the Soviet Union, I thank you for your help. ”

At this time, Wang Ming looked like a flattered child, and smiled happily and shyly. Two rows of white teeth are out. "Look at what you said, the USSR is the motherland of the proletariat of the whole world, and of course my motherland! It was only natural for me to do something for my country. ”

Li De sighed: "That is what I said, but in the current China, how many proletariats regard the Soviet Union as the motherland?" The anti-war movement in the southern national control area is getting lower and lower, and the national anti-war general strike cannot be launched for several months...... On the contrary, quite a few cadres of the Red Sè trade union were beaten to death by the proletarian workers of China! It's so sad. ”

Wang Ming also sighed: "It's really sad, but those workers who beat people must be pretended to be Kuomintang spies, and this blood debt can only be recorded on their heads!" By next year...... Can the soldiers of the Red Army avenge the comrades of our party? Speaking of this, Wang Ming's eyes were full of worry, and he stared at Li De tightly. Li De smiled: "Comrade Wang Ming, don't worry!" The great Soviet Red Army, even if it did not have as much intelligence as the Kuomintang reactionaries, would have been able to defeat these invaders! And now...... We already know when the enemy will attack and where they will attack from! How could this war be lost? If you can't win the war, it doesn't conform to the basic principles of military science. ”

"Yes, Comrade Adviser is right," Wang Ming echoed: "This is the simplest and most basic principle of military science. ”

At this time, the car had stopped, Wang Ming and Li De got out of the car and walked to the plane together. Li De said: "Comrade Wang Ming, when I arrive in Moscow, I will definitely report your merits to Comrade Berzin. And I promise you that as long as the USSR defeats the invasion of the fascist enemy, you will also be able to return to the Politburo of the Central Committee of the Central Committee! ”！。
