In March, spring is already blooming in the south, while in the north Moscow is still freezing and snowy.

Red Square is unusually empty in the snow, with the Kremlin to the west and the frozen Moskva River not far away.

Stalin stood in the newly built Kremlin and looked at Red Square, and his eyes fell on Lenin's tomb on Red Square. Lenin was the founder of Soviet Russia, and Stalin was his successor, becoming the leader of the world's largest country.

Yagoda looked at Stalin standing in the wind and snow, straightened his clothes, and quickly stepped forward and whispered: "Comrade Stalin, there is the latest information. ”

"Say!" Stalin did not look back, and his answer was concise and competent.

Yagoda responded: "According to the latest information, the Chinese have moved their troops to the south on a large scale, and they have formed a confrontation with the British and French colonies in the South China Sea and the southwest border, and the situation is about to break out. The diplomatic embassies of Britain, France and other imperialist countries have expressed strong protests to the Chinese Foreign Ministry, but China's response has also been extremely tough. ”

Stalin categorically said: "These are superficial phenomena, and we cannot be fooled by them. Are the Chinese still expanding their arsenal in Mukden? ”

"Yes." Yagoda was awe-struck, and continued, "It is very strange, according to the information sent back by our intelligence officers who fled into China in White Russia, it seems that during this period, the Chinese were still secretly transporting strategic materials to the north. ”

Stalin sneered: "That's right. The real purpose of the Chinese is the Far Eastern Republic, and their southward movement is nothing more than a bluff to force the British, French, and German imperialists to abolish the unequal treaties, and the Chinese do not want a large-scale war with them, because the Chinese navy is still too weak. ”

The Far Eastern Republic is a republic controlled by Russia in the Russian Far East and the region east of Lake Baikal in Siberia. The republic was established on April 6, 1920, and although nominally readable, it was mainly controlled by Soviet Russia, mainly to create a buffer zone between Soviet Russia and the occupied Vladivostok (Vladivostok). This republic was a temporary expedient measure taken by the Central Committee of the CPSU headed by Lenin to avoid direct negotiations with the CPSU. On November 5, 1922, after the retreat from Vladivostok, the republic was merged into the Soviet Socialist Republic of the Russian Federation. However, in fact, it was in a state of relative reading power until the thirties.

In order to give Soviet Russia a chance to recuperate and ease Sino-Soviet relations, Lenin even issued a declaration agreeing to abolish the unequal treaties and return the Chinese territories occupied during the imperial Russian era. However, the Chinese side has been in a state of division and civil war, and there is no formal and unique political axe to negotiate. Of course, after Li Bufan unified the whole country and defeated Yueben, he announced the strong rise of China, but it was still a temporary political axe, although he sent people to negotiate with the Soviet and Russian sides, but the Soviet Russia also had a lot of prevarication, and it was not until the official election of Duan Qirui that China and the Soviet Union formally negotiated, but the Far Eastern Republic denied it, pointing out that the so-called abrogation of the treaty was a treaty after 1893, and only a small amount of territory such as Jiangdong Shiliutun could be returned.

The Sino-Soviet negotiations aroused Li Bufan's great dissatisfaction and anger, and he decided to use troops against Soviet Russia. Because of the presence of Wu Di, a traverser, and knowing that Lenin had died in January 1924, the timetable for the offensive was set for the spring and summer of 1924, and he took the lead in arranging it, in order to strike a thunderous blow.

The Red Revolution in Soviet Russia caused a large number of White Russians to flee to the northeast and even northwest China, and Soviet Russia naturally sent spies to infiltrate it. There were many talented people among these fleeing people in Soviet Russia, but China, which lacked talent, had to hire these talents in order to develop rapidly. For this reason, the secret arrangement to the north was also discovered by Soviet and Russian spies. When Soviet Russia received such information, it naturally paid close attention to China's movements, knowing that China now has an incomparably huge military force, and even the words that have defeated Russia in the past are vulnerable to China.

Yagoda hesitated, "What do you mean?" ”

Stalin sighed and said: "At present, the Chinese are very strong, and fighting a large-scale war with millions of Chinese troops in the Far East is a huge disaster for any country." According to the information transmitted by our friends of the Comintern in Europe and the United States, the powerful countries in Europe and the United States are ready to compromise with the Chinese in order to 'lead the water to the north' and let the Chinese and us fight a defeat for both sides. We cannot allow their plot to succeed. ”

After Yagoda responded, he said hesitantly: "Although China's military young Zhuang faction headed by Li Bufan is interested in going south, China's president is Duan Qirui after all, as a representative of the old Beiyang, they are full of fear of Britain and France and other powers, and they also support fighting north, so the Chinese will have a secret layout to the north." ”

Stalin laughed and said: "Does the Chinese Young Zhuang faction really want to go south?" I don't think so. Li Bufan could have sat on the throne of the president, but he gave it to Duan Qirui, which is enough to show that Duan Qirui must conform to and cooperate with Li Bufan's strategic arrangement, and the so-called dispute between China's south and north is actually a political game. The purpose of the Chinese in doing this is to force Britain, France, the United States and other powers to abolish unequal treaties and give up their interests in China. The great powers have experienced a world war, and absolutely do not want to fight another war in the Far East at this time and millions of Chinese troops, so as long as there is a little guidance, the plan of "leading the water to the north" will naturally come to fruition, and the Chinese who have achieved their goal will naturally be able to push the boat down the river and regain their lost territory. ”

As the director of the National Political Security Bureau (that is, the boss of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in later generations), he never expected that there would be so much deceit in the international competition. He immediately said: "Comrade Stalin, we must not allow the machinations of the imperialists to succeed. What should we do now, please instruct! ”

Stalin gave a grim smile, and at the sight of this smile, Yakoda shuddered.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

All kinds of radio and telephone sounds in China's Ministry of Defense in Nanjing, China, have become busy and even tense since the drastic changes in the situation in the South China Sea, the southwest's entry into a state of combat readiness, and the southward movement of large armies for exercises.

"Our ship was ordered to ram your ship! Tsk tsk. Wu Di looked at the telegram that had just been sent from the South China Sea Fleet, and kept exclaiming, "Amazing! Sa Zhenbing deserves to be the treasure of my Chinese navy. If you are in danger, you have to do it in a hurry! As he spoke, he whispered close to Li Bufan's ear and said, "Boss, during the Cold War in later generations, this kind of thing happened. In particular, the air force of our republic used this method to ram enemy fighters that intruded into our airspace and defended our national sovereignty. ”

Li Bufan nodded heavily and said, "It's really good." As long as there is no fire, there is room for relaxation. We are not afraid of war, but we hope that it will break out when we are well prepared and in line with our overall strategic arrangements as much as possible. ”

Wu Di sighed and said: "It's just such an impact, I'm afraid that many of our naval officers and men will die in the line of duty." ”

Li Bufan snorted coldly and said, "Some sacrifices are necessary. If war breaks out now, we are likely to sacrifice hundreds of thousands, if not millions, more in the war. ”

Wu Di smiled bitterly in his heart, he didn't know whether to say that Li Bufan was cold-blooded, cold-blooded, or something else. He only thinks that this kind of behavior is remarkable from the evaluation of such events by later generations, and he cannot understand its strategic effect and purpose, especially during the nuclear Cold War period in later generations, if war or even a nuclear war breaks out, the consequences are really terrible.

Wu Di picked up another telegram and changed the subject: "Look at this telegram from Hekou, one of our lieutenant colonels, the commander of the Tiger Ben soldiers, actually punched a French lieutenant colonel who came to negotiate the de-escalation of the situation at this juncture. ”

Li Bufan said lightly: "This is what I meant." We don't need negotiations on the front, otherwise the pressure will not begin. ”

Wu Di said in surprise: "But boss, that's the border, guns on both sides are pointed, a little careless, it is very likely to cause a local war." ”

Li Bufan sneered: "Then let's concentrate on fighting a dozen Frenchmen, so what?" ”

Wu Di was stunned, and then suddenly realized. To put it bluntly, due to geopolitical relations, Britain and France could not afford the financial and logistical pressure of deploying heavy troops in the Far East and confronting China, and with their strength in the Far East, they were not China's opponents. Nor could Britain and other countries break out into a full-scale war with China for France to suffer a loss, and the result would undoubtedly be the end of mediation. You know, this is the era when there are no nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction. This is an era in which conventional weapons and troop strength have the final say, and the Chinese National Defense Forces have been equipped with advanced equipment for one or two million troops, and the five million army is ready for battle.

Wu Di smiled and said, "I like this era!" ”

At this moment, his heart was really relaxed and let go. The era without nuclear weapons is good. Compared with later generations, some small countries are desperately trying to make a nuclear bomb, and even the superpowers dare not do anything to them. In fact, nuclear bombs are not only terrifying, but also infinitely poisonous.

"Smack" the crunch of a fist hitting the face.

Lieutenant Colonel Ellison's feeling was that his face seemed to have been run over by an elephant, his cheekbones "clicked", shattered into several pieces, and the whole person flew out with blood.

Five hundred pounds!

This is the fist power of every clone warrior, and this is the pinnacle of normal human power. You must know that this is seventy or eighty kilograms of strength, but it is not the level of boxing champion Tyson, even if it is Tyson's punch, it is at this level, which is completely beyond the scope that normal people can bear.

With the power of one punch, the entire front line was silent.

Ellison had actually been knocked unconscious by the punch, and as a result, he fell to the ground, and then slid out several meters on the ground, abrasion in large areas, and the severe pain woke him up in pain, and let out a terrible wail like killing a pig
