Wang Junhao walked briskly into the corridor in front of Chang Ruiqing's office in the Tangshan Military Commission Building. He and Bai Chongxi, Wu Shi, Zhao Zhen and other four people are known as Chang Ruiqing's four King Kongs, and they belong to the descendants of the lineage. This time, Chang Ruiqing is leaving China to visit Wèn in Europe, and passenger planes are a very unsafe thing in this era, and taking a boat is still the best choice. However, the time to come and go is a little longer, and the visit is expected to take nearly six months. Therefore, Nanjing, the first good place, must have henchmen and generals in charge. Wang Junhao was recalled from the position of commander-in-chief of the Northeast Security Department because of this.

Zheng Zhongyuan stood at the door of Chang Ruiqing's office, saw Wang Junhao coming, immediately stood up and saluted, and then said in a low voice: "Provincial Princess, the commission seat is now in the small garden, and Yougong (Zhao Zhen) is talking about things, please come with me." ”

Wang Junhao nodded, and said in his heart: "Zhao Youlin has also returned to Nanjing, it seems that he is going to sit with himself and Wu Yuxun (Wu Shi)." The three brothers are estimated to be able to cover the three commanders of the army, so they don't know who will be the secretary of the army and who will be the chief of staff? ”

At this time, Chang Ruiqing was chatting with Zhao Zhenzai, who was respectful, while walking. At this time, Chang Ruiqing was still calm, and there was no expression of joy and anger on his face. As soon as the news of the visit to Germany and Italy was announced, it immediately caused some waves at home and abroad. Even if you go to Italy, Germany is still at war with the Soviet Union! The fact that the chairman of China's Military Commission visited Germany at the invitation of the German defense minister seems to indicate a subtle change in Sino-Soviet relations! Is China ready to abandon its "non-alignment policy" for the past two years and turn to Germany?

Although the Nationalist Government has repeatedly declared to the outside world that Chang Ruiqing's visit to Germany is to mediate the contradictions between the Soviet Union and Germany, it is by no means for the purpose of uniting with Germany against the Soviet Union. But it still provoked strong protests from the USSR and the GC International! Even within China and G, there are many voices calling on Chang Ruiqing to abandon his visit to Germany, or to visit the Soviet Union and Germany at the same time, in order to show balance. However, Chang Ruiqing ignored these protests and proposals, and continued to prepare for his visit to Germany. In his view, the Soviet Union was already extremely isolated in the international community, and it would not tear its face with China again under any circumstances. Germany, on the other hand, was occupied by the Soviet Union because of East Prussia and Poland, and became the only country in the world that could really help China develop heavy industry. Because a strong China is certainly a threat to the Soviet Union, it can always relieve some of the pressure on Germany.

“…… This time, I will take Bai Jiansheng and Lu Zixiu to visit Europe together. Lan Jihao, chief of staff, and Yang Xianyi, director of the Air Force General Bureau, will also go with them. The domestic military affairs are called to you, Yu Xun and introspection are responsible. I will appoint you as acting chief of staff, acting minister of the army, and Yan Hao, commander of the Nanjing garrison, as well as myself. When Chang Ruiqing said this, he saw Wang Junhao and Zheng Zhongyuan striding over. He beckoned towards Wang Junhao. smiled: "Introspection is also coming." It's been a long time since I've seen it, and I've really thought about it. ”

Wang Junhao smiled, saluted Chang Ruiqing, and said, "Yaoru big brother." It's not easy to see your brother every day? I've been an officer in the Military Commission from now on, isn't it? ”

Chang Ruiqing patted Wang Junhao's shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't say it, I really mean this." Yu Xun kept shouting in front of me, saying that he wanted to go out and lead the troops, or the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Security would give him two years. Come back and be the Director of Education. ”

"Good! I'm in charge of the military academy, and I'm better than Wu Yuxun. Wang Junhao said with a smile. The current Republic of China is not what it is in history, the central authority is very great, the so-called generals who lead troops abroad are empty commanders in peacetime, and they do not have much real power, and the dignified commander-in-chief of the Northeast Security is really not as majestic as the director of education of the National Defense Forces.

Listening to Wang Junhao's statement, Chang Ruiqing also nodded with satisfaction. Wang Junhao has been in the Northeast long enough, and it's time to move. Although he is his own descendant, he should still be on guard.

He smiled and added, "Introspection." But this time you'll be acting Secretary of War first, and when Kensheng and I come back from Europe, you'll be the Director of Education. When I am not there, you, Youlin, and Yu Xun must watch the army. This is our lifeline! ”

"Got it!" Wang Junhao and Zhao Zhen said in unison. At this time, Wang Junhao said again: "Brother Yaoru, this time are we going to join forces with Germany to deal with Lao Maozi?" This is not very consistent with our foreign policy all along. ”

Chang Ruiqing waved his hand. With a wry smile: "Where is the foreign policy that has always been there?" It's all a guess in the newspapers. Wang Junhao smiled slightly: "Brother Yaoru, to be honest, your diplomatic line is very incomprehensible." Many people have called on us to join forces with the United States and Germany to restrain Russia and Japan, but you are close to Russia and Japan. I don't care much about virtue. At the moment, the Soviet Union has a good relationship with us, and you suddenly play the card of the United Germany. What the hell is going on? ”

Zhao Zhen also echoed and said: "Yes, the staff officers of the Mongolian Front are also talking about it, and they feel that our joint Germany is very likely to cause the deterioration of the border defense of Mongolia and Xinjiang......

Chang Ruiqing listened to the discussion of the two generals under him, and just said lightly: "Diplomatic matters cannot be wishful thinking, and must be constantly adjusted according to the changes in the international situation. Although Soviet Russia defeated Poland in the Soviet-Polish War, it did not really show any threat, and Anglo-American-French certainly had the idea of containing Soviet Russia, but it was not urgent. Even if we act as a pawn for them to contain the Soviet Union, we will not have much benefit, and we will add a big enemy out of thin air...... Maybe this time the Soviet invasion of Poland and East Prussia will turn to us! Who can we count on then? Anglo-American? They will only symbolically give a little material and hang our lives in order to contain the Soviet Union. As for Japan, it is already our luck to be able to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and maybe it will join forces with the Soviet Union to invade us! As for Germany, hehe, what can Albert do? What can their 100,000 army do? Therefore, in the past, we needed to maintain friendly relations with the Soviet Union, and at the same time put on a posture of Sino-Japanese alliance, so that the Soviet Union felt that there was no opportunity in the East, so that it could turn the direction of expansion to the West. ”

"Then ...... now" Zhao Zhen analyzed along Chang Ruiqing's train of thought: "Now that the Soviet Union has frightened the Western world, they must now want to promote our alliance with Germany, and Germany has also gotten rid of the "Versailles Treaty" and formed an army of 1 million, which is enough to contain the main force of the Soviet Red Army, so that they dare not act rashly in the East." Therefore, we now have only interests and no risks! ”

"Brother Yaoru, this is probably raising Kou's self-respect, right?" Wang Junhao said. "Now that the Soviet Union has become stronger, our chess piece to contain the Soviet Union is worth a lot of money. But...... Why did you trade grain with the Soviet Union? ”

Zhao Zhen replied with a smile: "Then you still need to ask?" Of course, in order to continue to raise the Kou, if Britain, France and the United States want us to cut off trade with the Soviet Union, they will have to give us more benefits! ”

Chang Ruiqing smiled and nodded. It seems to affirm Zhao Zhen's explanation. He beckoned the two of them and said, "Introspection, Youlin, accompany me for a walk." The two generals of the National Defense Force followed behind him, and Chang Ruiqing seemed to be very emotional: "Don't look at our China seems to be quite beautiful in the international community in the past two years, in fact, it is all superficial, in fact, China is still a big and weak country." Being the leader of a big and weak country is the hardest...... Sometimes it's even harder than being a small and weak leader of a country. A small and weak country is nothing more than a choice of holding a thick leg or dying in the country. Historically, Japan hugged the thick legs of Britain. It became a small but strong country, and North Korea hugged the thin legs of the Qing Dynasty by mistake, and as a result, the country perished. But our situation in China is much more complicated, and we are a big country. Any great power must be on guard when dealing with each other. Great Britain, the United States, France, the Soviet Union, Japan, and Germany are all the same. The difference is only that the one of vigilance and common interests is greater, and the leaders of these powers are all human beings, and the abacus beads are no worse than ours......" He sighed, and then said: "Britain, France, the Soviet Union, and Japan are all more defensive than common interests for us, so they will not really help us under any circumstances." The United States is in a slightly better position with us. But the leaders of this country are very scheming, they are actually competing with Britain for hegemony, and on the surface they are isolationist and have no desire for anything, and at the same time the whole world supports countries that may shake the hegemony of the British Empire to be cannon fodder! China, Germany, Japan, and even the Soviet Union are all objects of support from the United States, but the United States will not form an alliance with any of us and then focus on supporting it. Because they don't want any country to really rise to the point where it can dominate the world in the process of overthrowing Britain, what the Americans want is for a country like ours to die with the two old empires of Britain and France! If a few emerging countries are too strong, it is not excluded that the United States will support Britain and France! In a word. When dealing with the United States, we don't need to stick it up, and people won't give us any more benefits if we stick it up, so it's lukewarm, and investment, loans, and second- and third-rate technology will still be used to support us. And now Germany is the country that really has more interests than defense with us, at least until they defeat the Soviet Union......"

His voice was infinitely emotional. It seems that some warning has been thought of that person has now mysteriously disappeared, maybe he has found his way back, maybe he just came to warn himself, right? History now seems to be following that man's warning...... I thought about it for a moment. Chang Ruiqing still gritted his teeth and said loudly: "No matter what." Now Nazi Germany (not quite, in fact) will be our friend! And we must also make this friend, because the support of the United States will not make us a real first-class power! And we have so many people that we have to be a first-class power to live a dignified life! We need more living space, and this cannot be obtained through the cooperation between Guò and the United States, but only through the cooperation between Guò and Germany! ”

His tone was resolute, and he seemed to have made a lot of determination. Wang Junhao and Zhao Zhen stood behind him, looking at his tall figure, and unconsciously stood in awe. It seems that his boss's ambition is not only to rule the country......

……

At this time, in the conference room of the China GCD headquarters in Nanjing, there was a chaotic scene. Party Chairman Mao Zd sat at the top of the conference table and didn't say anything, just coldly watched the two groups of people below arguing loudly. One of them is the right-leaning elements in the GCD, who support Chang Ruiqing. The other group was the GC International delegation to China, led by the new head of the delegation, Borodin, the Soviet ambassador to China, and Natalie. Leshinskaya also came over, and several young members of the Chinese Communist Party were also coaxing with the Soviets -- they were all students of the preparatory school for studying in the Soviet Union run by the Chinese Communist Party, led by an 18-year-old young man named Chen Shaoyu, who was banging on the table and loudly questioning Chairman Mao with a few classmates.

"You traitor, traitor, thief! And the face dictates to us? What did you do when the great Soviet Red Army liberated Poland and East Prussia? You are busy on the capitalist road! We Chinese GCD people don't need a party chairman like you! ”

"Now that the members of the Political Bureau of the Chinese GCD are going to visit Germany, the enemy of the working class in the world, this is simply a shame in the history of the international communist movement. Didn't it become the National Socialist Workers' Party of China? ”

"There should be an immediate purge of the party, the expulsion of all non-Bolshevik elements from the party, and we would rather have no ruling position, but a genuine Bolshevik party!"

Those rightist members of the Central Committee of the Central Committee are speaking for Chairman Mao ZD. It's a very rare scene......

"You are splitting the party! It's anti-party! If in the USSR, people like you would have to go to labor camps! Don't even want to come out alive! ”

"What do you babies know? Whoever dares to say that Lenin is not Lenin in the Soviet Union is viciously attacking the great leader! You can't escape from being shot, and you have to make your parents pay for bullets! ”

"If you like the Soviet Union, go to the Soviet Union and never come back. See if you end up rotting in the concentration camps or working as slaves to Lenin and Trotsky. ”

Some of the members who claimed to be leftists looked embarrassed. I don't know how to be good. No one helped Mao Zd maintain order, but got together to talk about something, presumably speculating about whether Chang Ruiqing's diplomatic line had undergone a fundamental change. Is it really to abandon the Soviet Union and unite with Germany? In any case, the honeymoon period in Sino-Soviet relations is over! This is certainly not a good thing for those of them on the left, who have always presented themselves as pro-Soviet.

The door to the conference room was suddenly pushed open. I saw a group of people hugging Chen Duxiu, who was frowning, walking in. Although he is no longer prime minister, he is in control of the General Fisheries and Peasants' Association, which is very important for future elections, so his prestige within the party has risen instead of declining -- of course, the work of the Fisheries and Peasants' General Assembly is also extremely heavy, and he has just hurried to the meeting of a joint-stock farm pilot when he heard that someone was making a big fuss about the Central Headquarters.

See former Chairman Chen. Mao ZD breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, finally someone came to be a target with him! He knocked on the table vigorously and said loudly in a loud voice: "Now welcome President Chen to speak, everyone be quiet and listen to President Chen's speech!" ”

Chen Duxiu also nodded at Mao ZD, walked to the seat in the middle of the conference table, and said loudly: "Students! You have all misunderstood the Central Committee and the foreign policy of the Nationalist Government. After the 'Collectivized Farm Pilot Work Conference' just ended, I had a telephone conversation with the Standing Committee Chairman and Premier Pan. I asked them a little bit about it. Completely different from what you think, the friendship between China and the Soviet Union will not change because of the visit of the Standing Chairman to Germany! The chairman's visit to Germany is completely in line with China's national interests and will not fundamentally harm the Soviet Union...... And our Republic of China is an independent and free republic! Our China GCD is also an independent GCD, not a branch of GC International! We have the right to follow our own path and safeguard the interests of our country. Now that China's development needs Germany as a friend, we will make friends. This does not mean that we should abandon the old friend of the Soviet Union, because the Soviet Union has no right to prevent us from making friends with Germany, and the same Germany has no right to turn us against the Soviet Union! ”

Chen Shaoyu and several young GCDers looked at each other. Several of them are historical bulls - both left and right. But now they are still big boys, and they don't have many opinions. was fooled by their GC international teacher and ran away from the Central Headquarters of China G to ask for the guilt. Now listening to Chen Duxiu say this, although he also knew that it was wrong, he couldn't say anything to refute it, so he set his eyes on Miv and Lesinskaya. And Natalie is translating Chen Duxiu's words into Russian and reporting them to Miff. The fact that they instigated these young GCDers to make trouble at the headquarters of the Chinese G was enough for them to show their credit to Moscow, and now they have found out the "true intentions" of the Chinese side by the way. Well, it can also be interpreted as the fact that the revisionist party did not dare to openly betray the Soviet Union "under pressure from the workers and students...... The credit of both of them is huge! It may not be beneficial to continue to make trouble, so let's step down quickly!

Miff thought for a moment and spoke a long paragraph of Russian with a stern face, and Natalie translated: "**, President Chen, we will relay your words to Moscow, but as a Bolshevik, I still hope that you can realize that the world revolution is the trend of the times, and the victory in the Polish-East Prussian Liberation War has shown this!" I hope that China G can return to the right path in time and work together with the proletarians all over the world! With that, both of them took the lead and turned away.
