As soon as Xiang Ying's words fell, there was a buzzing sound of discussion below, and the generals below couldn't hide the surprise on their faces. Now it is only ten days before the defeat of the "Battle of Lindian Zhaodong", and the Central Revolutionary Military Commission is actually ready to launch a second offensive! What caught everyone off guard was that there were rumors that the Central Committee was preparing to hold peace talks with the Trotskyists and that they would unite with them to oppose the Kuomintang...... I didn't expect that in the end, I would have to fight the Trotskyists.

At this time, Zhu D's face was also hesitant, his two thick eyebrows were tightly twisted, and he pointed to the location of Liaoning Province on the map and said: "According to this plan, eleven of the twelve corps of our Red Army will participate in the attack or encirclement of the Trotskyist bandits, and only one corps will be left to deal with unexpected situations that may occur at any time, such as the offensive of the Kuomintang. Isn't such a deployment too risky? At the moment the Kuomintang has six divisions deployed in Liaoning Province, at least five more divisions in Hebei Province, three in Shanxi, and three in Shaanxi, for a total of seventeen divisions to be used against us. Even according to the full manning rate of sixty percent, there were large armies, and this figure did not include the local troops and air forces of the Kuomintang, as well as independent technical arms. How can we completely ignore it and have only the bandits in our eyes? "We don't have to consider the threat of the Kuomintang for the time being." Zhou Elai took over the question and said lightly: "The Central Committee is ready to start negotiations with the Kuomintang, and we can negotiate to stabilize them." ”

"Negotiate to stabilize them? Is this possible? Zhu D was a little surprised, although he was a military general, but he was not ignorant of politics, and now that the GCD and the Trotskyists are inseparable, the Kuomintang will of course stand by and wait to be a fisherman. But if the Central Government had gone all out against the Trotskyists, and there was a possibility of eliminating the Trotskyists, would the Kuomintang still be on the sidelines? Aren't they afraid of a unified GCD that threatens their rule?

"Yes, it's through negotiation." Zhou Elai frowned deeply, Stalin's hand of "United Nations Suppression" put great pressure on the Central G, if the Central G could not complete the task of the Suppression, Zhou Elai had no doubt that Stalin would really compromise with the Kuomintang and betray the Central G!

Even the imminent negotiations would certainly be extremely unfavorable to the CG, which would inevitably have to pretend to accept many extremely harsh conditions in order to stabilize the KMT, and if the CG broke the treaty after defeating the Trotskyists...... In front of the people of the whole country, they will have to play the role of the sinner who provoked the civil war, and when the time comes, the Kuomintang will coerce the will of the people of the country and attack the exhausted division of the Trotskyists after the bitter war between the Chinese and Trotskyists, and the future of the Chinese and the Chinese will still be worrisome!

"This is the instruction of the GC Guji, and we can only abide by it now, unless we ......," Zhou sighed, and his unlessness was almost impossible, that is, the Kuomintang rejected the "United Nations Suppression" proposed by the Soviet Union and insisted on supporting the Trotskyists in their confrontation with the Soviet Union to the end. If this happens, the Chinese and the G will be able to win space for survival and development in the confrontation between the Soviet Union and the Kuomintang.

"This Bukharin, how could it be him?"

In the study, Luo Yaoguo pushed open the window, and a cool breeze immediately floated on the East Lake outside, dispelling the stuffiness in the room, but it couldn't dispel the irritability in his heart. The war between the Trotskyists and the Trotskyists did not go as smoothly as expected, and the G-Tsangs seemed to be well aware of the importance of Chahar and had been holding on to the southward movement of the Trotskyists with heavy troops. The Trotskyist coalition army, which won the "Battle of Lindian Zhaodong", did not seize the rare opportunity to seize Harbin and bring Heilongjiang under its rule, but chose to return to Qiqihar to recuperate. It seems that Lin Yurong's use of troops is still a little conservative1

But it's no wonder that they are fighting alone after all, and they lack smooth logistics and supplies, so they have to deal with it carefully.

However, what made Luo Yaoguo feel even more troublesome was the attitude of the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union's attitude towards China during this period suddenly made a 180-degree turn, frequently showing goodwill to the national "government" through various channels, and even hinting that they could stop military and economic assistance to GCD, and could urge them to abandon the line of armed secession, military confrontation against the national "government", and participate in the "people" constitutional process of "China"!

As for the conditions...... Didn't he send a man named Bukharin, to China, to negotiate the salvage and repair of the three warships that sank at the mouth of Dagu in Tianjin? He also asked Chiang Kai-shek or Luo Yaoguo by name to negotiate business with Bukharin, which was obviously a bit big, but it was not just the salvage and maintenance of the three warships.

At present, the Nationalist "government" and the Soviet Union have not yet established diplomatic relations, and there are few channels of contact between the two sides, and the relationship is cold and tight, so it is reasonable to use this "business" to conduct some diplomatic negotiations under such circumstances, but this special envoy sent by Stalin is somewhat unusual.

This Nikolai Bukharin is a classic among traitors in another time and space! Well, because the film "Lenin in 1918" is for the traitor horn that the masses of the people in the whole socialist camp like to see. Even a certain spirit from the capitalist camp knows that there is such a person. Moreover, in this time and space, Luo Yaoguo also saw the living Bukharin, and knew that he was the big leader of GC International, but he was defeated by Stalin last year because of his opposition to agricultural collectivization.

But now that Stalin has reactivated him, is it to forgive him? This Stalin doesn't seem to like to forgive people very much, does he?

Natalie, who came to report the news to him, also frowned and reminded: "Fuwen, it is estimated that Si~."

Dalin is using a delaying tactic to buy time for the Central G to destroy the Brippai army.

"I know." Luo Yaoguo nodded: "But the problem is that the Kuomintang is not up to me alone, and the partners issued by the Soviet Union are indeed yours, and the other bigwigs in the main group are afraid that it will be difficult to refuse." ”

"In fact, Stalin's conditions show that our support for Trotsky is to find the death of the Soviet Union and Stalin. We can't be mihuo by the petty profits in front of us, and with Stalin's character, we will definitely regret it afterwards. Who are we going to reason with then? Natalie thought for a moment and said.

Luo Yaoguo was silent, Stalin was indeed discreditless, the Kuomintang had suffered enough in history, and the mistakes of the past could not be repeated in this time and space. But because of this, I have to control this negotiation even more. Thinking of this, he sneered: "Natalie, hang up the phone to Chiang Kai-kong's office, and say that I hope to be able to take charge of the negotiations with Bukharin, and the armistice agreement with Japan himself will be signed by Chiang Kai-kong." …，

"Hehe, this is a big advantage for Chiang Kai-shek, and the armistice agreement to open up the territory is so colorful!" Natalie sighed faintly, muttered a few words, and turned around to hang up the phone in Chiang Kai-shek's office.

After more than a month of negotiations, an agreement was finally reached, and there were only two conditions, one was that the two sides would achieve an armistice on the basis of the existing areas of control, and the other was the release of prisoners of war. Issues such as Taiwan's Penghu sovereignty, the ownership of Kwantung Prefecture, war reparations, and the repatriation of war criminals (Han jiān) were all avoided. However, since all the disputed territories such as Taiwan, Penghu, and Kwantung Prefecture are controlled by China, this armistice agreement can still be regarded as a major diplomatic victory for China. Originally, this honor belonged to Luo Yaoguo, but now he gave this honor to Chiang Kai-shek in order to obtain the opportunity to preside over secret negotiations with Soviet Russia.

Because of the use of warship salvage and repair transactions as a cover, the place of negotiation with Bukharin was placed in the huge Zhanjiang naval base, and Bukharin was laughing and talking with Luo Yaoguo while looking at this huge military port, which has far exceeded the Kronstadt port in size, and his heart was extremely shocked.

Although he heard about the rise of Chinese imperialism, although China defeated Japan in two ways, recovered Taiwan, and almost annihilated the Japanese navy, which once dominated the East, it was not until he saw this huge military port with his own eyes and saw the Nanyang Fleet of China anchored in the military port that he really realized that the backyard of the Soviet Union was no longer safe.

The 32-year-old marshal of the Chinese country in front of him was a poor Oriental revolutionary who ran to Moscow to beg for aid less than ten years ago, and now he is the chief of the general staff of the world's third-largest army and the world's third-largest navy! According to the assessment report published by the British War Office and the Admiralty, the Chinese imperialist army ranks behind France and Italy, while their navy ranks behind Britain and the United States. Whether these two reports are credible or not, the military power of this country is probably higher than that of the Soviet Union!

At this moment, he couldn't help but worry about the comrades of the Chinese G, with their small Red Army, would they be able to defeat the third most powerful army and navy in the world? The answer is obvious, unless there is an imperialist war for hegemony like a world war, and China is precisely the losing side, just like Tsarist Russia and Germany at that time, due to the unfavorable situation on the battlefield and the collapse of the economy, which triggered a domestic revolution. It's just that Comrade Stalin thought that the next world war would most likely be a joint attack on the USSR by Chinese imperialism, Polish imperialism, and some other imperialist!

It is a pity that although he Bukharin, he did not agree with most of Stalin's views, but he and Stalin were completely in agreement with Stalin on the idea that the next world war would break out between imperialism and the Soviet Union! That's why he agreed to come here to buy more time for the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union needs time to be secure and strong, and the Trotskyites can't be allowed to stir things up!

Nikolai Ivanovich Bukharin straightened his waist again, and returned to the demeanor of the world's first person in the revolution (the leading brother of GC International), and suddenly asked: "Your Excellency, Marshal, I wonder what you think about the civil war between the Chinese and Trotskyists in the north of your country?" Unexpectedly, this bald-minded, seemingly very learned former GC international boss did not discuss the three battleships that sank outside the mouth of Tianjin Dagu, but jumped directly to the matter of the Trotskyists and the Chinese G, obviously the Soviet Union is now really concerned about these armed Trotskyists in China, so Luo Yaoguo hurriedly said: "Dear Comrade Bukharin, for this civil war that happened on the territory of our country,

I will lodge the strongest protest to the Soviet "government"! and demanded that the Soviet "government" immediately stop dealing with China

military assistance in order to prompt an early end to the policy of civil war and return to the right path of peaceful reunification! Luo Yaoguo smiled coldly and looked at Bukharin's furrowed brows: "In addition, I would like to remind the Soviet Union that your country's support for and interference in other countries' civil wars can be regarded as an act of war!"

This is a war against the third military power in the world! "For this reason, of course, we [China] can reserve the right to take corresponding retaliatory actions!" When Luo Yaoguo said the last sentence, Bukharin already felt how tricky the task was this time! China is already the main empire. What's even more tricky is that their military strength is very strong! And their bayonets were still facing the soft underbelly of the USSR. Anyone with a modicum of military knowledge knows that it is impossible for the Soviet Union to defend against the main threat from the West while deploying a large army on the Sino-Soviet border, which is thousands of kilometers long enough to resist the invasion of the world's third military power!

Therefore, in fact, it is impossible for the Soviet Union to give up its support for China and G, and only they can contain the energy and military strength of this new hegemon in East Asia and win precious time for the development and construction of the Soviet Union.

But the problem is that the Soviet Union will now face the same troubles, and once Trotsky arrives in Méng and begins to support and direct his supporters in an armed uprising or terrorist activity in the Soviet Union, then the Soviet Union will have to devote her main energies to internal stability, fearing that it will no longer have the strength to carry out the Second Five-Year Plan!

And if China wants to give up its support for the Trotskyists, at least the Soviet Union must also give up its support for China,........., but Bukharin knows very well in his heart that this is impossible! Because there was no mutual trust between China and the Soviet Union, although Menzhinsky did not make it clear to him, Bukharin's "true" intention from the very beginning was that he came to "China" only to deceive Chinese imperialism, first of all, to deceive the world's number one liar in front of him!

Thinking of this, Bukharin hurriedly smiled and said: "Your Excellency Marshal, your request to the Soviet 'government' is completely understandable, and this is also my main task in China, our Soviet Union has had the most friendly attitude towards China since the time of Lenin, and we sincerely want to help China, and our help to China's GCD is also for this purpose. But we also hope that our kindness will be reciprocated, and that China should not support the Trotskyites' conspiracy against the Soviet Union. ”

"Hehe, this Bukharin began to deceive! Look at his honest appearance, with a sincere expression, if he hadn't known in advance through "Lenin in 1918" that you are always an untrustworthy traitor, maybe Lao Tzu would have really fallen into the trap of a traitor......" Luo Yaoguo sarcastically mocked the Bukharins in front of him in his heart, but he still had the most sincere smile of a diplomat on his face, after all, Bukharin's suggestions were not very attractive to most people in the Kuomintang, this group of short-sighted, Xiong's unambitious guy has no ambition for the territory of the Soviet Union, and he just wants to hold on to his own one-third of an acre of land, which is at most satisfying, that is, drooling over the rich South Sea. This is also an important reason why Luo Yaoguo decided to support Trotsky, he needs a tool that constantly destroys Sino-Soviet relations and constantly beats Stalin's anger, only in this way can the Sino-Soviet Union completely break with each other and move towards war! However, at the moment, the "goodwill" thrown at the Soviet Union is still small

The heart copes with it.

Therefore, Luo Yaoguo immediately said: "Comrade Bukharin, our national 'government' has never supported Trotsky, and we do not know what conspiracy is against the Soviet Union. I guess you should know where these Trotskyists in China come from, right? They split from the GCD, not from our Kuomintang. It is your country that is now responsible for the ongoing civil war in our Manchurian region, and as long as your country no longer provides military assistance to China and G, our national "government" will be able to resolve the issue of national reunification through peaceful negotiations, and then there will be no Trotskyist armed forces on our territory. ”

Bukharin was stunned, and from Luo Yaoguo's answer, he found that the Kuomintang did not solve the idea of peaceful reunification by force, and it seemed that it was their first choice. Moreover, the Kuomintang also placed the Trotskyists on the same footing as the Central Committee, and this should also be resolved through peaceful reunification.

If the other party's idea is really like this, then he may have some hope to achieve some results in this trip to China, and Bukharin's mood suddenly became apprehensive.

"Your Excellency, I have heard the news that the intelligence services of your national 'government' are preparing to send Trotsky to Ménggu, and will also finance his activities!" Speaking of this, he glanced at Natalie, who was burying her head in the content of the meeting, intentionally or unintentionally. Bukharin knew this woman, and such a beautiful woman always made a great impression. He also knew that this woman had been a member of Dzerzhinsky's "Bolan Gang" and at the same time a dangerous Trotskyist! And now this woman has become the most influential person for Luo Yaoguo.

His own set of tricks to dismantle lies and deceive people is only afraid of being ...... in front of this Dzerzhinsky's proud protégé

"Comrade Bukharin." Luo Yaoguo couldn't hear the voice of joy and anger and pulled Bukharin out of his thoughts, and he said lightly: "We have no intention of participating in the disputes of your GCD people, nor do we intend to interfere in the internal affairs of your Soviet Union...... But there is a premise for this, that is, we do not want this absurd civil war to continue on our territory, and the differences between you Stalin and Trotsky should not be settled with the blood of the Chinese. We demand that the Chinese and the G immediately stop their military offensive against the Trotskyist forces, lift the military blockade of Ménggu, and then resolve the issue of national reunification through negotiations. After the reunification of the country, our national "government" will naturally not allow the existence of any military belonging to SI people or parties other than the national army in its jurisdiction. ”！。
