"Our Japanese Empire has always had good intentions towards the Republic of China, and in order to further express our country's determination to put an end to the China Incident, our country is willing to hand over all Bayannur and Baotou in the Shaanba region to the Chongqing government and dissolve our instructors' corps in the Mongolian and Xinjiang United Autonomous Government. Our army will peacefully retreat to Manchukuo, and our country will be guided by non-interference in China's internal affairs and hand over the Suiyuan Mongolian issue to the Chongqing government for resolution. It is hoped that the Chongqing government headed by Mr. Chiang Kai-shek will reply to our army's goodwill as soon as possible and lay a good foundation for a thorough settlement of the Chinese incident. ”

"Click" Jiang turned off the radio, sat down, looked at everyone and said, "Let's discuss, how to solve this matter?" ”

Bai Chongxi immediately said, "Obviously, this is a conspiracy of the Japanese, according to the Xinhua Daily of the Red Party, the 83rd Army has completely blocked the counterattack of the Japanese army, Baotou has been surrounded by the Eighth Route Army, Fu Zuoyi is attacking Shaanba, and the defeat of the Japanese is only a matter of time." At this time, the Japanese offered to return it, hehe, when did China's territory become his, and return it? ”

He Yingqin disagreed and said, "But because of this, we can be sure that this time Japan really intends to give up these two cities to us, and if we can take these two cities, and then award Wuhai to Ningma, half of Suiyuan will return to the hands of the party-state." ”

Jiang Zhong nodded with a smile, this is also the best state he thinks.

"But will the Red Party agree? We are thousands of miles apart, it is impossible to send a large army north, the Red Party has tried their best to defeat Suiyuan, I am afraid it will not be so easy to return to the government. Chen Cheng said.

At this time, Zhang Qun walked in and said to Jiang Zhong, "Chairman of the Committee, the Soviet Union has just called, hoping that we will not accept Japan's suggestion to prevent the destruction of the anti-Japanese united front, and further urge our army to carry out a counteroffensive as soon as possible. ”

Jiang Zhong sneered and said, "The Soviet Union has always been very interested in our China's internal affairs. Saying that, Jiang Intermediary stood up and said, "The affairs of our Chinese, the Chinese solve them themselves, neither the Soviets nor the Japanese have the right to interfere!" Immediately send a telegram, asking the 18th Route Army to stop attacking for a day, contact the Japanese, don't they want to return Baotou and Bayannur to us, then immediately order all the Japanese troops to withdraw from the two places, and the local puppet army will immediately go on the spot anyway, and finally use the airplane to parachute the commander and the administrative officer to take over the two places! The second Shanxi must not be allowed to appear. ”

After a series of orders, Jiang took a breath and said, "Finally, a commendation order was issued to commend the 18th Route Army, the 83rd Army, and the 35th Army for this battle, and reward the three armies with 200,000 oceans and another 100,000 bullets. ”

Everyone couldn't help but admire Jiang Zhong, this trick was fought and pulled, only a one-day truce, and it was easy to explain to public opinion, if the Japanese army really had a heart, one day was enough, and the puppet army was reorganized on the spot, and the provincial troops were dispatched, and the commendation order was also issued quickly, even if the Red Party wanted to say something, he could use the commendation order to cover his mouth.

Ishihara looked at the telegram forwarded back from Beiping, smiled and said, "Jiang is a cunning politician, just do what he asks, let's wait and watch a good show." ”

Several people sitting next to him nodded their heads, looking extremely satisfied with Jiang Zhong's reply.

——Baotou

In a gloomy room, a group of high-ranking officials of the puppet Mongolian government looked gloomily at a young man with slender eyes sitting on the upper seat, who looked no more than thirty years old, with fair skin and a slightly rich figure, and knew at a glance that he was a pampered person.

"King De, this Japanese is going to sell us, our foundation is in this Suiyuan grassland, and now it is occupied by the Red Party, and it is going to be sent to Chongqing on the other hand, so what should we do?" Li Shouxin, who is in his 40s, is a Mongolian, and as early as 1933, he led his troops to the enemy, and at this time he was the commander-in-chief of the puppet Mongolian army. He asked anxiously, he knew how many people hated him to the bone, and he who had finally escaped from Houhehot trembled at the thought of being captured by Chongqing or Yan'an.

"That's right, let's go, there are still a lot of places in this Mongolian steppe, it is impossible for the Han people to completely grasp it, they just occupy a few cities, what do we Mongolians want the city to do, as long as there is a grassland, where can we not live?" A puppet Mongol army general also said.

For a while, you said a word, I said a word, some said that they would persuade the Japanese to take everyone away, some would negotiate with Chongqing, and some would flee to Outer Mongolia.

Among the crowd, there was only one slightly chubby military general who was about the same age as King De bowed his head and did not speak, and when King De saw him like this, he couldn't help asking, "Darizaya, do you have any ideas?" ”

Dalizaya raised his head, he was the leader of the Alxa Banner, he spent his youth in Beijing, and even married Puyi's cousin, he thought about it and weighed it and said, "I think, we have to talk to Chongqing first, Chongqing is beyond our reach, in order for us to contain the Yan'an Red Party, it will definitely give us a lot of power, as long as we are allowed to govern ourselves, let Chongqing nominally be our master, what can we do?" ”

King De smiled slightly, took out a telegram from his bosom and said, "Everyone, take a look, this is a telegram from Mr. Dai Li, a cadre next to Chairman Chiang, to me, and it has Chongqing's promise written on it. ”

Everyone hurriedly gathered around to take a look, and Darizaya looked at King De and smiled slightly, "King De is really far-sighted and prepared. ”

King De didn't care for a moment, rubbed his hands and said, "This is all for our Mongolian people, you see, Chairman Jiang promised to reorganize our troops on the spot, General Li Shouxin is the deputy commander-in-chief, and the commander-in-chief is the former famous general of the Northern Expedition who is about to come by plane, and now Fang Ce, chairman of Henan Province." And I am the vice chairman of the Suiyuan Provincial Government, and I have the right to act as the chairman, and the conditions are extremely favorable, so everyone doesn't have to worry. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, there was a knock on the door, and everyone was startled, and King De pressed his hands and said, "Don't worry, at this time, the Japanese will know and will not deal with us, don't they want us to surrender to the Chongqing government?" ”

When everyone heard this, they didn't care anymore, Li Shouxin opened the door, but it was a small soldier, and the little soldier saluted Li Shouxin and said, "Commander-in-chief, the enemy is attacking the city, Taijun asked you to hurry up and take a look." ”

Li Shouxin scratched his head and said incredulously, "At this time, the Red Party still dares to attack the city, they are crazy." Let's go! Remember, everyone must hold on to Chongqing to die, and it is better to die in battle than to be red! ”

- Yan'an

** Looking at the telegram, he smiled angrily and said, "Lao Jiang and the Japanese sang a good show, I think they should draw a cartoon, just draw a husband and sing with the wife." ”

Zhou Guansheng said calmly, "Don't be angry, the Chongqing government's move this time is still very lawful, although we all understand that this is a trick to deal with us, but it is difficult to say that it is wrong in legal theory, after all, we are only required to stop fighting for one day, and the Japanese army is still being blocked by our army in the Ulanqab area, not to mention that we are still under the Chongqing government." The key now is how to deal with it. If Chongqing really takes over the two places, it will be regarded as a successful recovery, and they will also have an explanation for the people. ”

** Turned around twice and said, "Suiyuan is an extremely important part of our army's planning, there are a lot of resources that we urgently need, not to mention the territory that our army has spent a lot of manpower and material resources to conquer."

said** thought about it again and said, "However, what you said is also right, we can't lose the political battle, since they want the city, then give the city to them, we want the countryside, anyway, we are originally from the countryside." ”

Ren Bishi walked in at this time and said, "Chairman, Guansheng, Chongqing's actions are so fast, you see, the national government officially announced the pardon of King De, Li Shouxin and others for treason, and at the same time announced that Fang Ce was the commander-in-chief of the Suiyuan Army, and the former puppet Mongolian army was reorganized on the spot. Finally, this is the armistice order of Chongqing! ”

** I took a hard puff of cigarette, gritted my angry teeth, and couldn't speak for a long time.

Zhou Guansheng asked, "What is the situation on the front line now?" ”

Ren Bishi shook his head and said, "We were originally going to take advantage of Chongqing's lack of formal response to take the two places to create a fait accompli, but as of the telegram just sent, the two places have not been taken, and the resistance of the local Japanese puppet army is extremely fierce, they should also know, as long as we hold on for another day, we can't do anything about them." ”

**Squinted his eyes and said, "Xiao Wang, go and ask Dr. Fu how it is." In addition, power generation, it is proposed that General Fu Zuoyi be the chairman of Suiyuan Province, and that Baotou and Bayannur can be given to Chongqing, but the vast area south of the Yellow River cannot be given to Chongqing, this is our bottom line, and Chongqing has used a large number of military and political dignitaries of the puppet government, this is their weakness, Guansheng, you go to Chongqing, you have to sit in Chongqing for this matter. ”

Zhou Guansheng hummed and said, "Okay, if we take the initiative to retreat, I believe that public opinion will stand on our side." ”

Wang Hai secretly stretched out his head and looked at Liu Yalou and others who were in a meeting, Liu Yalou saw Wang Hai and shouted with a straight face, "Wang Hai!" What the hell are you doing? ”

Wang Hai touched his head and walked in and asked, "I'll just inquire, when will we be dispatched, didn't it be said on the radio, the devil is going to give Suiyuan to Chongqing, will we still fight?" ”

Liu Yalou slammed the table and shouted, "Fight!" Why not fight! That's Chongqing, not Yan'an, order the troops. Immediately ready to take off, the route of the Japanese army has been calculated by the radar, we will wait on the Taihang Mountain to give them a ruthless blow! ”

With the sound of woo-wah, more than 50 fighters took off in turn, and Wang Hai's plane was still under maintenance because it was seriously damaged, so he could only watch his comrades-in-arms take off and leave with envy.

Jiang Intermediary slept well last night, he had already received the news that both my Baotou and Bayannur's Red Party troops had stopped attacking, although in order to try their best to seize it, the Red Party troops waited until their airborne officers and administrators arrived before ceasefire, but after all, it was still stopped, and that was enough, Suiyuan was recovered by himself without much effort, and Jiang Intermediary would like to come a few more times for such a deal.

Thinking of this, Jiang Intermediary thought of Wang Jingwei in Nanjing again, he couldn't help but chuckle, and secretly said in his heart, "Wait, when I Jiang Intermediary hits Nanjing, I'm afraid the Japanese will also hand you over to me obediently like King De." ”

"Bench, seat. Take a look at today's Xinhua Daily. Chen Bui walked in anxiously with a newspaper, Jiang Zheng raised his head to look at Chen Bui, and found that Chen Bui's eyes were angry and worried, and he couldn't help but ask in surprise, "What's the matter?" As he spoke, he took the newspaper and read it.

At first glance, the front page headline of the newspaper was not the Suiyuan War that he had been speculating, but the plague in Taihang Mountain - "The Source of the Plague in the Battlefield Behind the Enemy Reveals the Japanese Army's Unit 1855"

Jiang intermediary looked at Chen Bui, and then continued to look down, the first half of the article is talking about the sudden plague in Taihang Mountain in recent times, and there are outbreaks of plague, cholera and other diseases everywhere, and then the topic changed, talking about Japan's 1855 unit in Beiping, and introduced in detail that the 1855 unit was born from the 731 unit in the northeast, and collected mice, studied the plague virus, took the Chinese people and prisoners of war as ** experiments, and dissected living people infected with the virus, the content was bloody and vicious to the extreme, the article pointed out, Today's Unit 1855 is creating a virus that can kill countless people every day, and using fleas to spread it, and also creating flea bombs, and the article also describes the mutated plague virus and the method of flea transmission in extremely technical language. At the end of the article, it was specifically pointed out that in the vast occupied areas of various places, it is not known how many such Japanese bacteriological units there are, and it is not known how many ordinary people are suffering in this way.

"Smack!! Jiang intermediary slammed the cup, his eyes were blood-red, and he gritted his teeth, no matter what, Jiang intermediary is also Chinese, the head of the Chinese government, and now the enemy country is taking his people to do such a vicious experiment, how to make him not angry. But the anger comes and goes quickly, not to mention anything else, what is the purpose of the Red Party by releasing this article now. He didn't believe that the Red Party was for no reason, and at this time, he didn't talk about Suiyuan first, but went to talk about the plague.

Jiang Zhong continued to look down, the second edition of the article is to introduce the Suiyuan War, focusing on the 120th Division, the 35th Army, the 83rd Army of the brutal battle and the life of the people in the recovered area, the end of the article said that when the troops entered Baotou City, about to capture King De and the Japanese invaders alive, the plane of the Chongqing government flew through the sky, an officer with the Chongqing order issued the armistice order to the commander of the 120th Division He Long, He Long knelt on the ground and raised his head and shouted, the Japanese army and the puppet army cheered, and King De knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the southwest, Jiang Intermediary only felt a burst of red and white on his face, especially with photos as evidence, which made him feel embarrassed.

Jiang intermediary continued to flip down, and the next version is to call for Fu Zuoyi to be the chairman of Suiyuan Province, and introduce Fu Zuoyi's loyalty, courage and good fighting from all aspects, and compared with the modern chairman of Suiyuan Province, King De, people have the illusion that Yue Fei and Qin Hui are opposite.

Jiang Intermediary threw away the newspaper and scolded hatefully, "Niang Xipi, these red parties"

Before he could speak, Wang Chonghui walked in and said, "Chairman, U.S. Ambassador Nelson Jensen asks to see you." ”

Jiang was stunned for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll be here right away!" ”
