Volume 2 Chapter 071 Entering the Jin Sui I
The fall of 731 shook the entire Kwantung Army and the headquarters of the city, in addition to the loss of 731 that made the top brass angry, more people were afraid, after all, biological weapons are a kind of invisible thing, especially the experimental process.
So after the incident broke out, he was very worried that his biochemical experiments would be exposed, but in the end, there was no news at all, which really made them wonder.
According to the report of the Harbin military police, it is likely that the attack on Unit 731 was the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, because before the accident of Unit 731, the Anti-Japanese Federation had dispatched a large force to attract the main force of the Harbin Military Police, which caused Unit 731 to be empty and was attacked by people.
Moreover, in the process of rescuing Unit 731, the Harbin Military Police Unit was also blocked by the Anti-United Nations, which made them more sure that the attack on Unit 731 was done by the Anti-United Nations.
It's just that what makes them wonder is that Unit 731 has always been very secretive, how could it be attacked by the Anti-United Nations, and a large number of main forces were mobilized for this purpose, and they showed unprecedented combat effectiveness during the operation, directly eliminating the well-defended Unit 731 completely.
Unit 731 is just an ordinary anti-epidemic water supply unit on the surface, and it should not become the main target of the Anti-Japanese Federation, but it was eliminated by the Anti-Japanese Federation once, which can explain the reason why the Anti-United Nations spent so much effort to deal with Unit 731, only the true situation of Unit 731 has been exposed.
Thinking of this, the army was even more puzzled, with the strict organization of Unit 731, where was there a mistake. Now that Unit 731 has been completely wiped out, and all the clues are basically broken, it will be even more difficult to find the real cause.
For the time being, I can't find the reason for Unit 731**, but the army is very resentful of this loss, and decides to intensify the suppression of bandits, and must pay double the price of the anti-Japanese alliance in the northeast.
After the army's retaliatory action began, the Anti-Japanese Federation suddenly fell into a relatively critical state, but fortunately, the Party Central Committee had anticipated this situation before, put more aid materials for the Anti-Japanese Federation, and formulated many strategies and tactics for their next guerrilla warfare operations.
When the cat-and-mouse game between the Anti-Japanese Union and the Kwantung Army was in full swing, Li Keji had already returned to the Northwest Soviet Region and devoted himself to the establishment of radar stations and the reorganization of the Northeast Army.
When the Northeast Army was reorganized, the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army was also reorganized again, and finally the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, the Northeast Army, and the Northwest Army were united to form the new Chinese Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army, with a total of nine field armies, 27 field divisions and nine reading cavalry brigades, in addition to the Military Commission column directly under the Central Committee.
After absorbing the Northeast Army and the Northwest Army, the Northwest Soviet Region expanded again, completely occupied the four provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia and Qingdao, and became an immeasurable force in the world.
After the merger of the three armed forces, the "Declaration to the Compatriots of the Whole Country" was immediately sent to the whole country, in which the state was at a critical juncture of survival, it called on the forces of the whole country to "stop the civil war and unite with the outside world," and expounded the policy of the Datong Party's "United Front of Resistance against Resistance," hoping that the people of the whole country would unite to resist the aggressors.
At the end of the statement, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng, on behalf of the Northeast Army and the Northwest Army, respectively expressed their willingness to accept the Datong Party's policy of "Anti-Japanese United Front" and merged with the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army to form the Chinese Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army, and issued a war letter to the invaders.
As soon as the "Statement to the Compatriots of the Whole Country to Resist the Resistance" of the Northwest Soviet Region came out, not only the whole country was shocked, but even the Western world was very shocked; why was it that last year it was still driven away by the political axe army like a lost dog, and now it actually occupied the northwest of China in the Far East, first defeated the Central Army, and then merged with the Northeast Army, becoming a force to be reckoned with in the Far Eastern battlefield.
At this time, the red revolutionary movement around the world was showing a thriving trend because of the rise of Soviet Russia, and many red political parties wanted to know how the Datong Party was reborn in a desperate situation, and sent reporters to Far East China to see this Far Eastern miracle.
Long before the arrival of reporters from other countries, Edgar ** of the United States had already traveled to the Northwest Soviet Region through special channels in early 36 years, and met Lee Shengshi, chairman of the Datong Party, and immediately became a confidant in his life.
After receiving the news, the Central Army and the Gui faction, which were still in a hot war in the south, both temporarily chose to strike the war. The Gui faction had reached the point where the oil had run out and could not continue fighting, but the Central Army saw that the Datong Party had defeated the Central Army and incorporated the Northwest Three Horses and then incorporated the Northeast Army, and deeply felt that the Datong Party was getting stronger and stronger, so it had to temporarily stop fighting with the Gui faction and turn the spearhead to the Datong Party.
It's just that after the fiasco of the previous encirclement and suppression in the northwest, the pain on the body of the Central Army is still alive, and it is said that it wants to turn the spearhead to the Datong Party, but when it is really implemented, no one is willing to be the ghost who substitutes for the dead.
Especially after the re-establishment of the Jiangxi Soviet District, the Central Army's contact with several encirclements and suppressions have been smashed, and now no one dares to brush the tiger whiskers of the Datong Party, and Chang Kaishen himself also does not dare to act rashly, you must know that his confidant Hu Zongnan is still in the hands of the Datong Party, and there has been little progress in the negotiations on redemption.
The only thing that made Chang Kaishen more pleased was that the First Army went down from Hu Zongnan to the Datong Party, and almost none of them threw themselves into the Datong Party, and they were still waging a "desperate struggle" with the Datong Party, unlike Mao Bingwen and Wang Jun, who chose to surrender to the Datong Party not long after the end of the encirclement and suppression campaign, and accepted the "anti-Japanese united front" in Datong.
It is said that Mao Bingwen was not caught in the final battle, but chose a small path to escape, although he escaped for a while, he was finally caught by the search team of the Datong Party, and it did not take long for him to surrender to the Datong Party.
In the face of the increasingly powerful Datong Party, Chang Kaishen hated it so much, why did he let them run away from Jiangxi in the first place, in the thousands of miles of encirclement and interception, if he could completely eliminate the Datong Party, how could the Datong Party develop now.
When the time comes, if you unify China, you will only have the choice of overseas organizations, and when the time comes, you will have to stand aside, and the world will be China's.
It's a pity that if something never happens, Chang Kaishen can only write his thoughts into his personal notes, and then sigh helplessly in the face of reality.
Unlike Chang Kaishen, after the establishment of the Chinese Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army, in the face of such a huge force, Yan Xishan, who lived next to the Northwest Soviet Region, was the real anxious.
Not to mention that there is such a tiger squatting at the door of the house, which is enough to make people tremble, and I am afraid that when he is hungry one day, he will suddenly break into the door and eat himself.
As early as the Northwest Encirclement and Suppression Campaign, although Yan Xishan also knew that the Datong Party was a dangerous tiger, he only regarded him as a sick tiger, so he agreed to Chang Kaishen's request and besieged the Datong Party with Chang Kaishen.
However, in actual action, Yan Xishan still played a little bit of heart, after all, a sick tiger is still a tiger after all, and he can kill people when he fights back when he is dying, and he Yan Xishan doesn't want to make a loss-making deal.
So in the siege campaign, he instructed his subordinates to besiege but not attack, and to see the situation first. Unexpectedly, at a glance, almost scared half of his life away, the Datong Party actually relied on its own strength to devour alive the three main forces of the Northwest Three Horses and the Central Army, among which even the southern part of Hu Zong, which is known as the first in the world, could not be spared.
Seeing such a situation, Yan Xishan couldn't help but be relieved that he had foresight, otherwise he wouldn't know how he would have died.
After discovering that the strength of the Datong Party was far beyond his imagination, Yan Xishan took back the troops and expressed his goodwill to the Datong Party.
For this reason, he also gave an example of the 412 Qing Party, and he did not wantonly kill the Datong Party like Chang Kaishen, but just sent the Datong Party gifts out of the country.
The Datong Party has become accustomed to Yan Xishan's shameless behavior, and this kind of turning face faster than turning a book is very common among domestic warlords. Now that the Datong Party is waving the banner of resistance, it is naturally difficult to settle old scores with them, but it still takes the opportunity to propose to Yan Xishan to cooperate in the resistance and establish a united front against Japan.
Although Yan Xishan was somewhat afraid of the combat effectiveness displayed by the Datong Party in the northwest encirclement and suppression campaign, and on the surface he showed a humble attitude, it did not mean that he would do whatever the Datong Party wanted him to do; he politely rejected the Datong Party's proposal at the moment; under the leadership of Chang Kaishen, he could not make open cooperation with the Datong Party without authorization, but in private he would still take care of the Datong Party, never send troops to the Datong Party, and we Chinese would not fight the Chinese.
Yan Xishan's choice is also in the consideration of the Datong Party, knowing that he will not easily establish any alliance with the Datong Party, so it is not surprising at all, but he still finds a way to extend the tentacles of the Datong Party to Yan Xishan's territory, after all, this will be the only way for the Datong Party to resist in the future.
Historically, the Datong Party chose the method of warfare in the base areas behind enemy lines, and basically did not consider any logistical problems, but only needed to bring the troops to the hinterland of the Japanese army. Now that the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army has been reequipped with the 56 series, its reliance on logistics is no longer comparable to that of the previous situation, and the Party Central Committee must take into account the logistical support after the War of Resistance Against Japan.
In order to ensure the smooth flow of logistics, there can be no rupture between the rear and the front line, and the relationship with the Jin Sui Army is on the agenda, because the current territory of the Jin Sui Army will be the only way for the logistics system of the Datong Party in the future.
The establishment of the logistics system includes all aspects, in order to achieve the maximum effect, the Jin Sui army or Shanxi this place must be completely in the hands of the Datong Party, the most convenient is to directly eliminate the Jin Sui army, and then occupy the whole of Shanxi.
However, the Datong Party is now holding high the banner of resistance, and starting a civil war is to slap itself in the face, this road is no longer feasible, and in the end, under Li Keji's reminder, the Party Central Committee decided to take a financial war against the Jin Suijun, and after taking off Yan Xishan's money bag, he did not worry about him not throwing himself into the Datong Party.
For this war without gunpowder, the central government sent several economic powers, including Cheng Yun and Xi Zhongxun, Cheng Yun is the economic expert of the central government, and Xi Zhongxun is a local, who knows the Jin Sui army very well, can dredge many joints, and has strong personal ability, and is one of the main founders and leaders of the northwest base area.
When Yan Xishan received from his subordinates that the Datong Party had come to contact him again, he was very nervous, and he didn't know what the Datong Party was doing with him this time.
Yan Xishan naturally likes business very much, he has built a lot of factories in Shanxi, has a fairly good industrial foundation, and can barely maintain his own weapons supply.
Since Kuching businessmen are very famous, Yan Xishan is also a rich man, although he is a warlord, but he has a strong merchant taste, he likes to care about the gains and losses in everything, although there is no big result, but he also stands tall in the stormy warlord melee, relying on his merchant taste.
At this time, the Datong Party was obviously stronger than him, and if the whole army came to attack, let alone his Jin Sui Army, even the main force of the Central Army could not stop it here, so after the end of the Northwest Encirclement and Suppression Campaign, he had been looking for a way out for himself.
The best way out is to switch to the Datong Party, but that is tantamount to making wedding dresses for others, and Yan Xishan, an old pick, will definitely not do it. But if you want to resist hard, you can't stop the Datong Party with the strength in your hands, so you can only ask for help from outside, one is the Central Army, and the other is the Northeast Army.
The Northeast Army is internally unstable, and he is too busy to take care of himself, Yan Xishan naturally can't rely on it, so he can only put his abacus on the Central Army.
It's a pity that after the Central Army failed in the Northwest Encirclement and Suppression Campaign, there were also many contradictions within itself, and the Gui and Cantonese departments of Liangguang were dragging back, and Chang Kaishen didn't have time to pay attention to him, so he could only ask for more blessings.
Unable to seek foreign aid, Yan Xishan was even more afraid that the Datong Party would turn against himself after stabilizing the northwest, but what reassured him a little was that the Datong Party shouted every day to "stop the civil war and unite with the outside world" and should not start a civil war without authorization.
After all, shouting one thing and doing another is already a norm in China, who can guarantee that the Datong Party is not shouting slogans for fun, after all, the Northwest Encirclement and Suppression Campaign that has just ended, the Datong Party is not soft on the Northwest Three Horses and the Central Army at all, and directly wiped out the southern part of Hu Zong, which is known as the first in the world.
Therefore, when he received the telegram that the Datong Party wanted to do business with him, Yan Xishan was very puzzled, he couldn't understand how the Datong Party remembered to do business with him at this time, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was ready to dispose of the equipment seized in the Northwest Encirclement and Suppression Campaign to him at a low price, which made him very reluctant to refuse.
