"Welcome, Your Excellency. This journey has made you hard...... I know the state of transportation in Mongolia, and it is really not a convenient place for large armies to enter and exit, but we will soon build a railway from Zhangjiakou to Chatuk, which will be much more convenient when you want to bring your troops back. ”

It was Chang Ruiqing who spoke in English, and it was Kolchak, the consul of the Russian government-in-exile, who listened to him. The Russian admiral looked a little emaciated, his hair was already a little gray, and his face had a viscerally tired expression. It seems that losing the civil war is still a very big blow to him. And Chang Ruiqing leaned on a sofa, looking also very bad, and Wang Ruonan was also sitting beside him, holding a cup of hot coffee and listening to the two 262nd dead people, isn't it time to have a monthly pass? Her English was not very good, and she basically couldn't understand it, but she still sat there with a smile.

Kolchak came to visit Chang Ruiqing this morning, saying that he was apologizing to Chang Ruiqing for yesterday's assassination...... After all, the assassin was Russian, and his public identity was Kolchak's deployment. He, of course, the head of the government-in-exile cannot be said to be without a little responsibility.

But Chang Ruiqing is not a fool, of course he knows that apologizing or something is just an excuse. I am afraid that there are only two things that this White Russian leader really cares about, the first is naturally the matter of returning to Russia; And secondly, of course, there is a series of disputes that are about to start around the Far Eastern Republic or the Republic of Simberia!

As for these White Russians, Chang Ruiqing understands from the historical materials of later generations that most of them are patriots, and they all regard Russia's interests as more important than their own lives! These White Russians after leaving Russia. Most of them also regarded the USSR as their homeland! Even members of the Romanov family were no exception. And this Kolchak, most likely, is also such a character. Although he is anti-Soviet, on the question of the ownership of the Far Eastern Republics, I am afraid that he is resolutely standing on the 262nd death of Soviet Russia, is it really not time to have a monthly pass? Side! Let his White Russian army go and collude with the Japanese. I am afraid that there is no possibility of helping the Japanese to seize the Far East. And today's visit to Kolchak is probably also to understand his attitude towards the possible Second Russo-Japanese War...... Will they be on the side of Japan because of last night's assassination?

Chang Ruiqing looked at Kolchak's dignified look, sat on the sofa and laughed silently. He shook a cup of coffee in his hand and said lightly: "The situation of Soviet Russia is quite bad now, Poland in the west is sharpening its knives and wants to invade Belarus and Ukraine...... Behind them was the support of Britain and France. Pilsudski was also a great leader, and during the Great War in Europe, his Polish legions were torn between the various powers!

As for Japan, which controls the Far Eastern Republic to the east, I don't know much about it. The Japanese are a hungry wolf that bites its prey and refuses to let go! Now the Far Eastern Republic is in their hands. It is estimated that they will not give up until they fight a battle. I suspect that Japan and Poland are likely to fight together.

However, as the largest neighbor of Soviet Russia, China will not play a role in this upcoming war. Of the three major territories bordering Soviet Russia, except for Manchuria, there are good transportation facilities. It allows the army to enter and exit the outside. Mongolia and Xinjiang are extremely inconvenient in transportation, and it is already the limit to be able to maintain tens of thousands of troops, and it is difficult for this force to protect itself, and I want to help your army's army fight back. I'm afraid it's not realistic.

Moreover, we do not want your armies to take part in this war of aggression against Soviet Russia between Japan and Poland. ”

Kolchak quietly listened to Chang Ruiqing's very straightforward words, it seems that the other party is not a politician who likes to talk around the bush. It's a military politician who likes to go straight, which is very much to his taste. So he also decided to get straight to the point.

“…… Mr. Admiral. I think you should also be able to know that opposition to the Bolsheviks and opposition to the Russian state are two completely different concepts. The Bolsheviks will always be our enemy, but Russia is not, and Poland and Japan are against the Russian state, not the Bolsheviks who rule her. So in this war, it is quite possible that we will be on the side of the Russian Motherland! Of course, we also know that our status in China is a guest, and we will respect China's sovereignty and will not attack the Japanese army from Chinese territory without your permission! But in case the Bolsheviks could not survive this crisis, we hope that the Chinese government will join forces with us against Japan, and I don't think you want to see an overly powerful Japanese empire, right? ”

It seems that the supreme consul of the Russian Provisional Government is quite fond of wishful thinking! Chang Ruiqing smiled secretly in his heart. The military system of GC doctrine now practiced in Soviet Russia cannot be carried out in economic construction, nor does it have any effect on promoting the productive forces. But if it is used to fight wars, it can bring out the full potential of the Russian nation! It would be good if the two self-righteous powers, Great ** and Japan, could draw with them, how could they beat the Bolsheviks to the ground and give you the opportunity to return to power?

However, Chang Ruiqing didn't plan to pour cold water on Kolchak, after all, he had a huge number of White Russian troops in his hands! If he can become an ally with himself, it will be a powerful help to deal with Japan or Jiang Jishi in the future.

So he smiled and nodded at Kolchak, and reassured: "Your Excellency, I have this intention! As Your Excellency said, an excessively strong Japan poses a serious threat to our national security! It would be undesirable for us to have allies such as the consul and the government-in-exile to join us in confronting Japan. Please rest assured, if Japan wins a big victory in the Russo-Japanese War, we will definitely fight side by side with you! ”

Just when Chang Ruiqing and Kolchak were talking happily, the door of the living room of Sizhaotang was suddenly pushed open. It was Zhao Xiang'er who came in, she was also the captain of Chang Ruiqing's guard, and she was Chang Ruiqing's aunt's wife, so she could naturally come in without knocking. She bowed slightly to Kolchak before turning to Chang Ruiqing and said, "Jurentang called over there." Please come and visit immediately. ”

Chang Ruiqing sighed and asked rhetorically, "Who called?" Any idea what's going on? ”

"It was Mrs. Sun who called, and she didn't say anything, but she was very anxious when she heard the tone."

"Really?" Chang Ruiqing nodded. Kolchak smiled apologetically: "Your Excellency, it seems that today's talks can only end here. Let's talk more about how we can fight Japan together another day. ”

……

When Chang Ruiqing and Zhao Xiang'er walked quickly to the gate of Juren Hall. I saw Sun Yat-sen's secretary general Wang Jingwei standing at the gate waiting, this beautiful man who has always been known for his graceful and elegant bearing, but now he is anxious, almost crying and mourning, and sighing incessantly, as if the sky is about to fall. Seeing Chang Ruiqing coming, he hurriedly took a few steps forward. Pulling Chang Ruiqing's arm, he said, "Oh no! Oh no! Something big is wrong! Something big is wrong......"

Chang Ruiqing was stunned, frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" Could it be the Japanese...... Wang Jingwei stomped his foot: "It's not Japan, it would be nice if Japan was looking for trouble!" Yes sir, I don't know what's going on. Mr. ...... suddenly Suddenly it fell! ”

"Down? Sick? ”

"Not sick." Wang Jingwei leaned into Chang Ruiqing's ear and whispered: "Poisoned!" Probably poisoned......"

"What? Who did it? Chang Ruiqing gasped, and hurriedly asked, "How is Mr. now?" Are there any dangers? ”

Wang Jingwei shook his head, didn't say anything, pulled Chang Ruiqing and ran towards Juren Hall. At this time, the atmosphere in the Juren Hall had been depressed to the extreme, and the attendants and servants who were walking back and forth did not dare to make a sound. Just keep your head down and do what you're doing. Deng Tianyi, the captain of Sun Yat-sen's guard, stood in the hall with a dark face, staring at everyone who passed in front of him with a gloomy gaze, as if he wanted to find out the murderer who poisoned him from among them! There were also a few foreign doctors in white coats gathered in a corner of the hall and whispered something, but look at the expressions on their faces. This time, I am afraid that Sun Da Revolutionary is more than lucky!

Chang Ruiqing and Wang Jingwei didn't have the heart to say hello to Deng Tianyi, and the two of them went straight to the second floor of Jurentang as if they were trotting all the way. Sun Yat-sen's bedroom is here. When they reached the bedroom door, a foreign doctor was coming out of it. Wang Jingwei grabbed Dr. Yang and asked in English, "Dr. Smith, how is Mr. Sun's condition?" ”

The foreign doctor named Smith shook his head slightly: "It's very dangerous, I can't find out what kind of poisoning it is, so I can't prepare an antidote...... And the poison has penetrated into the lungs, and gastric lavage will not help. Mr. Wang, I'm afraid you have to prepare for the worst! ”

Hearing this, Wang Jingwei's face was already crying, he suddenly turned his head to look at Chang Ruiqing, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, but sighed, pulled Chang Ruiqing and walked to the room.

And Chang Ruiqing's mood at the moment is also extremely heavy. Of course, he doesn't want Sun Yat-sen to live a long life, so when will he have to wait until he becomes the first person in the world? But it's too early for Sun Yat-sen to hang up now! At present, the country is only nominally unified, and there are still many private or semi-private armies in various places that need to be sorted out, and if Sun Yat-sen is still there, the difficulty of reorganizing the army will be much reduced, after all, most of those warlords are from the Kuomintang system, and they still admit to him as a leader. But once Sun Yat-sen is no longer alive, it may be difficult to say whether he, the Standing Chairman, will have any way to convince the public! I don't know if the whole country is going to fall into civil war again! What worries Chang Ruiqing even more is whether the more than 600,000 central troops now under the direct jurisdiction of the Military Commission can unite around him? There is a large share of Sun Yat-sen's Cantonese system there! If those Cantonese Yankees join forces with Jiang Jshi in the Northeast, they will be attacked on their backs!

However, Sun Yat-sen's death at this time was not without any benefit to himself. He and Sun Yat-sen's are allies of cooperation, but after all, they are in the name of monarchs and ministers. Sun Yat-sen has always been careful about himself, and he also supported Jiang Jshi, the king of the Northeast, to contain himself...... The reason why I didn't tear my face with myself is probably not sure that I will eat myself in one bite, right? Besides, isn't there an old saying: "Isn't it like accompanying a tiger to accompany you?" "It's enough to be scared to be with Sun Yat-sen's tiger all day long, and now that this Sun Tiger has passed, why don't you go to the most dangerous and powerful opponent!

With such a complicated idea, Chang Ruiqing saw Sun Yat-sen who was dying. The old man's face was blue-black. At first glance, it was poisonous, and his mouth and eyes were tightly closed, except for a slight breath, he was probably no different from a dead person. His wife, Song Qingling, accompanied him by the bedside. But I didn't see the shadow of the little Lori Sun Yuexun. Mrs. Sun's face was full of tears, she and Chang Ruiqing were both born in 1893, only a few months older than Chang Ruiqing, only 26 or 7 years old this year, it was the best time in a woman's life, and she married the first person in this country...... In the original history, she could still follow Sun Yat-sen's scenery for a few years, and then go to Jiang Jshi's trouble and dismantle the Kuomintang's platform. The old Jiang in history did not suffer less from her. It seems that he still holds this Mrs. Sun high.

Thinking of this, Chang Ruiqing hurriedly walked up to Song Qingling, gave her a military salute respectfully, and said in a low voice: "Madam." Please cheer up, Mr. Sun will definitely get better. ”

Song Qingling raised her head slowly, a pair of beautiful eyes revealed a gloomy gaze, and she looked at Chang Ruiqing fixedly for a while. Only then did he say slowly: "...... The doctor said that Mr. has reached the last moment of his life! As soon as he left, my heart went with it, what else did I cheer up? Yaoru. As soon as the gentleman goes, the burden of this China will fall on your shoulders alone. You're the one who wants to cheer up. ”

She said this very sincerely, as if it were true! I don't know if I have ever talked to Jiang Jshi in history? But Chang Ruiqing didn't believe a word. He hurriedly put on a sincere expression on his face. looked at Song Qingling and said: "Mrs. Sun, if there is really anything in case, the future country cannot only look at me to support it, madam, you should still continue Mr. Sun's unfinished business and work together with comrades!" ”

As soon as he said this, Song Qingling and Wang Jingwei, who was standing in front of Sun Yat-sen's bed and shedding tears, were stunned. The four eyes immediately focused on Chang Ruiqing.

Chang Ruiqing sighed lightly: "I think Mrs. Sun also knows a little idea of the future of the country." If China wants to develop and grow, it can only be built on the basis of the common struggle of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party and different classes. Of course, struggles and differences are inevitable, but the main thing should be cooperation, and the form and intensity of struggle must also be controlled within the scope of not affecting the overall situation of the country...... This is also the tacit understanding reached since the cooperation between Mr. and Mr. Sun, and I hope that if Mr. Sun fails to survive this hurdle, Mrs. can continue to walk along the path pioneered by Mr. Sun together with the comrades of the Kuomintang. ”

Song Qingling just nodded silently and did not speak. Wang Jingwei also walked to Chang Ruiqing's side from Sun Yat-sen's bedside at this time, he exchanged glances with Song Qingling, and then sighed and said: "Our Kuomintang has always been based on Mr. Sun's horse, Mr. is here, the Kuomintang can still be united, and Mr. is gone...... I'm afraid that no one can have the prestige to unite the Kuomintang, and the prestige of Madame may not be able to convince the public. ”

Of course, he said this on behalf of Soong Ching-ling, and Wang Ching-wei's prestige at present is much lower than in 1925 in history, and it is impossible for him to run for the position of leader of the Kuomintang.

Chang Ruiqing also nodded slightly, and seemed to agree with Wang Jingwei's opinion, but he also knew that he had to support Sun Yat-sen's family and cronies now. Because in the eyes of the world, he is the biggest beneficiary of Sun Yat-sen's death! At the same time, there is no way to clear the suspicion of murdering Sun Yat-sen! If Song Qingling and Wang Jingwei stand up and accuse themselves of killing Sun Yat-sen, they will not be able to wash themselves away even if they jump into the Yellow River, their glorious image as a revolutionary leader will also be tarnished, and the Cantonese officers in the army who worship Sun Yat-sen will also regard themselves as enemies! Therefore, he must get the support of Song Qingling and Wang Jingwei......

As for the problem of their lack of prestige, Chang Ruiqing is not very worried, the so-called sedan chair carries people, how many great leaders in history did not come out by packaging and praise? Besides, if the two of them are really respectable, they will be a threat to themselves.

Thinking of this, he lowered his head again, and said in a firm tone: "Zai Xia is actually a member of the Kuomintang, so he can also express some views on the internal affairs of the Kuomintang. When Mr. Sun was there, the Kuomintang only had to listen to Mr. Sun's words, but if Mr. Sun was gone, could the Kuomintang refer to the leadership system of the Central G and implement collective leadership? For example, let Hu Zhantang, Chen Jingcun, Xie Huisheng, Jiang Jishi, Xu Ruwei, as well as Mrs. Sun and Sun Gongzi form a supreme leadership organ similar to the Central Government Bureau? In addition, in the "National Founding Strategy" proposed by Mr. Sun and the next one, the Nationalist Government should also carry out a major reorganization, and an independent legislative and judicial organ should be established, and it would be more than enough for Mrs. Sun to serve as the president of the Legislative Yuan or the Senate with the prestige of Mrs. Sun. And Brother Zhaoming's big material has long been heard of below, and it should not be a problem to lead a ministry or a province. ”

Song Qingling and Wang Jingwei glanced at each other, and both showed satisfied expressions. The price given by Chang Ruiqing is indeed high enough, at least Hu Hanmin and Chen Jiongming will not give better conditions.

Song Qingling nodded slightly, her face suddenly became a little gloomy, she looked at Chang Ruiqing and said, "The suspects suspected of murdering Mr. have now been circled!" It's all been charged, but the identity of one of them is very special, and it's not easy to deal with! So I'd like to ask for your opinion. ”！！！
