488 A blow to the head

Li Xiaofeng's other chess piece is naturally the Kurds. Speaking of this nation, it is also a strange thing, its suffering is not much better than that of the Jews, and it has been the object of oppression and hanging for thousands of years. Not even as good as the Jews, at least after the victory in World War II, the Jews were founded, and the Kurds were still tragically divided into several countries, as before. For example, in Turkey, when Kemal came to power, he pursued a "Greater Turkey" approach, calling the Kurds "Mountain Turks".

Li Xiaofeng has been concerned about the Kurdish problem for a long time, in the early thirties, when Turkey was frantically persecuting the Kurds, the KGB operated on the territory of the Kurds, secretly supporting the Kurdish resistance, anyway, causing Turkey a lot of trouble.

Of course, here we want to talk about the Kurdish problem in Iran, and I have to say that this is really a joke played by God on the Kurds. In Turkey, the Kurds are brutally suppressed because they are a minority and do not conform to Kemal's Greater Turkish principles, and in Iran, the Kurds are not tragic because they are a minority, but they are also involved in religious contradictions. Iran is the world of Shiites, and the Kurds believe in Sunnis, Nima, what do you call this?

Can Sunnis and Shiites pee together? Definitely not, naturally, as a minority of Sunnis, the Kurds will definitely have a hard time. For example, the aforementioned Khomeini has waged a holy war against the Kurds. All in all, the Kurds in the Middle East are a tragedy, and they have been brutally suppressed every time.

But now the situation is different, and after the Soviet ****** made a long-term plan to destabilize the Middle East, the Kurds have the possibility of becoming the second largest-stirring stick in the hands of the Soviets after the Jews. Anyway, whether in Turkey, Iran, Syria or Iraq, the Kurds can't get along with the establishment, and it's a shame not to take advantage of it.

Therefore, since the thirties, Li Xiaofeng has secretly funded the Kurds to make trouble, especially after the outbreak of World War II, the scale of this funding has expanded dramatically. In Turkey and Iran, the Kurdish partisans have become not ordinarily tough!

And now, in Li Xiaofeng's view, the time is basically ripe, and it is time for the Kurds to make it bigger. On July 15, 1944, without warning, the Kurds suddenly announced the establishment of the Republic of Mahabat in northwestern Iran. This sudden situation immediately caught the British off guard, and the Kurds rebelled, how can this be endured, if it is according to the temper of the British Empire in the past, it will be suppressed immediately, but what makes the British depressed is that this time it really can't be done.

The Pahlavi army did try to suppress it, but it was embarrassing that the government forces were beaten by the Kurdish partisans, and not only failed to suppress the rebellion, but instead boosted the confidence and courage of the Kurds to become independent.

Under such circumstances, the Pahlavi dynasty could only ask Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union for help, after all, these three masters had to help do some work in their own homes, right? The British and Americans were quick to speak out, condemning the Kurdish separatist behavior and demanding that they immediately pull back from the brink. However, the attitude of the Soviet Union was very ambiguous, saying that it would not interfere in Iran's internal affairs, saying that Iran's affairs should be settled by the Iranians!

And that's not all, just as the Kurds were making trouble, there was another incident within the Pahlavi dynasty, and Mossadegh was elected to parliament and soon threw out a proposal to nationalize the oil industry. Although the proposal was quickly rejected by the British and American puppets, Mossadegh did not stop there, but began a series of high-profile propaganda to win the support of a group of Iranian domestic elites. In any case, the spearhead was aimed at the British Empire.

This made the British quite annoyed and helpless, the rebellion had not yet been pacified, and there was an accident within the puppet dynasty, which was completely a posture of imminent rain. Especially when MI6 reconnaissance found out that the mastermind behind all this had the shadow of the Soviet Union, the old smoker was furious.

He strongly condemned the Soviet Union's-stirring behavior in disrupting Iran, and demanded that the Soviet Union immediately pull back from the precipice. However, the old smoker's statement was bitterly rebuked by Trotsky: "I do not understand whether the British Government and Mr. Churchill have taken the wrong medicine, for the attitude of the Soviet Government on the Iranian question has been consistent, that is, non-interference." All the events in Iran have nothing to do with the Soviet Government, and if the British Government and Mr. Churchill are ready to throw dirty water on them, the Soviet Government and people will never agree to it. The Soviet government did not cause trouble, but it was by no means afraid of it! ”

Churchill had the intention of continuing to fight, but what made him depressed was that he had no evidence at hand, and the Soviet Union did support a lot of weapons and ammunition to the Kurds, but they were basically trophies on the Soviet-German battlefield and had nothing to do with the Soviet Union. Even the Soviet government seized on the fact that the Kurds were equipped with a large number of British-made weapons (captured) and made a big fuss, accusing the British government of being the culprit behind the connivance of the Kurds, and demanding that Britain immediately stop interfering in Iran's internal affairs. Anyway, isn't it just a war of words and nonsense, do you think it's just you?

All in all, Britain has been anxious about the Iranian issue during this period of time, and the European battlefield has involved too much of its energy, and it is really more than enough to do what is happening in Iran.

More fun is yet to come! A week later, Muhammad. Reza. Pahlavi was assassinated in the palace, stabbed by the Assassins more than a dozen times, and soon died of blood loss. The death of Pahlavi led to a very serious consequence, that is, the absence of a successor to the Pahlavi dynasty came to an end.

The British, who were still having a headache for the Kurds and the Mossadegh, were completely dumbfounded this time, and the Pahlavi dynasty hung up, which inevitably caused violent turmoil in Iran, and this turmoil was completely unprepared for by the British, and it was caught off guard for a while.

The British did not react in time, but Li Xiaofeng, who single-handedly led all this, was well prepared, and the Kurds not only gained a firm foothold in northern Iran, but also began a great split in southern Iran, and various political factions sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, smashing the domestic political order in Iran that the British had laid before!

Well, the British are starting to feel anxious, but this is only the beginning, because just as the British are busy going to Iran to put out the fires, the Soviets are launching a new political offensive in China. After another request for political reform by the People's Party was rejected, the T Communist Party delegation categorically announced the suspension of the negotiations, saying: "There is no point in continuing such talks. The Lord is not willing to give to other people. The main party still tries to rule China with dictatorship...... This is unacceptable, and if the KMP remains unrepentant, then we can only force it to change in the most compelling and drastic way! ”

The T Communist Party directly announced that it would not play, and the Scraping Kuomintang and its secret service tried to detain the delegation and Taizu by tricks, but Li Xiaofeng directly took the T Communist Party delegation and Taizu to the Soviet Embassy in the name of mediation, which made the Scraping Kuomintang have nothing to do at all.

At the same time, the Soviet Union did not sit idle, and immediately opened fire on Britain: "Some imperialist countries are still vainly trying to grossly interfere in China's internal affairs and safeguard their colonial interests, which is absolutely unacceptable in the eyes of the Soviet government and people. Respect for the territorial and sovereign integrity of every country is the most basic norm of international relations, and the British Government has been grossly trampling on these basic principles that are common to all civilized mankind. The Soviet government entered into an alliance with Great Britain because of its commitment to stand up to the evil and brutal Axis powers and to uphold the above basic principles of international relations. And now, the Soviet government can no longer see such a performance from the British government. The Soviet Government had to wonder if the British Government was the next Nazi, and the Soviet Government would never help the worse and would never allow imperialism to run rampant. Here the Soviet government warned the British government for the last time to hurry up and rein in the precipice, otherwise you will bear the consequences! ”

This warning is quite severe, although this is only a unilateral warning from the Soviet government, and the Americans have not yet spoken out, but it is this warning that makes Qiu Fatzi have to weigh it more. Although he thought that the Soviet Union's warning was just that, and that there might be eight achievements that were lip service, he really didn't dare to gamble. So immediately, the old smoker wrote a letter to Roosevelt, asking Roosevelt to administer justice and teach the Russians who didn't know what to do.

However, what is more interesting is that Roosevelt once again chose to remain silent, only saying that he wanted Britain and the Soviet Union to exercise restraint, but in fact he did not mean to interfere at all, as if he was preparing to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

Now Churchill is in trouble, is it the Soviet Union? Or do you admit it? Either way, he didn't like it. In desperation, he could only order Aiden to contact Li Xiaofeng again, hoping to probe the tone of the Soviet Union. It's just that Li Xiaofeng categorically refused to meet with Aiden, Roosevelt played silence is golden, he can naturally play too, British, you can guess for yourself!

The United States remained silent, the Soviet Union refused to engage, and in desperation, Qiu Fat Man could only choose to procrastinate. In his opinion, it's a big deal to drag it out, and see who can't stand it in the end! It's just that what Churchill didn't expect was that just as he was about to drag, the T Communist Party was on the North China side, and the Central Committee of the T Communist Party officially sent a message to all the people in the country. The main party issued a proposal to convene a political consultative conference in Baoding, Hebei Province, in October this year to discuss the establishment of a multi-party coalition government in the future and to discuss the formulation of a constitution in the true sense of the word in China.

Not to mention the British, even Lao Chiang couldn't sit still, he felt deeply offended, and really wanted to rush into the Soviet embassy to arrest the T Communist delegation and Taizu for trial. But Lao Jiang really didn't have the guts, so he could only cry to the American godfather again.

However, the American godfather immediately gave Chiang a blow in the face, and Secretary of State Hull said: "The US government supports the convening of the Political Consultative Conference and any attempt to resolve the Chinese issue by peaceful means!" ”

Why do Americans express their support for the CPPCC? The reason is very simple, they have already reached a general agreement with the Soviet Union before, and they have divided their spheres of influence, and as long as the Soviet side does not exceed this limit, they will not oppose it. The proposal to convene a political consultative conference this time is a good idea in the eyes of the United States, and they don't like Chiang's People's Party, but they can't find a replacement for it for the time being. And in the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, the people. The main liberal faction is very much in line with the taste of Americans, maybe it will be able to find a new spokesperson to replace Chiang?

Of course, the most important thing is that the Americans feel that the T Communist Party does not have an absolute advantage in the CPPCC, and this meeting will not hinder the fundamental interests of the United States. And you can also use this to beat Jiang someone, this thing dares to go behind his godfather's back and look at the British, you want to rebel!

You must know that it was not a matter of a day or two for Roosevelt to see that Jiang was not pleasing to the eye, and there were not many ways to put eye medicine on this product before, but only the Soviet Union began to meddle in the affairs of China, especially after it vigorously supported the rise of the T Communist Party. The Americans felt that Jiang was a lot more obedient. Since there is pressure to be motivated, the Americans will naturally think that it is a good way to use the T Republic and the Soviet Union to put pressure on Chiang and force Chiang to submit.

Naturally, this time Jiang wants to learn from Sun Monkey to rebel, and the United States naturally wants to give him a little hardship, at least let him touch a soft nail. Therefore, the United States openly applauded the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and it almost didn't say that I would like to praise it.

The Americans' current move really made Jiang feel the pressure, even the United States supports the CPPCC, can he not support it? But can Lao Jiang really support this meeting to divide his rights? Naturally, it is impossible, but what makes Lao Jiang depressed is that it is the T Communist Party that takes the lead, and even if he agrees to convene the Political Consultative Conference at this time, it can be regarded as picking up people's teeth. What's more, Lao Jiang will never allow this CPPCC to get out of his control and let him go to the territory of the T Communist Party to participate in the CPPCC, so it is better to kill him directly.

Therefore, Lao Jiang quickly proposed: "The political consultative conference called for by the T Communist Party is illegal, and the government has decided to invite all social leaders and gentry to come to Chongqing to discuss the national plan, and the Constituent Assembly is imperative!" ”

Obviously, Lao Chiang's method is to replace the Political Consultative Conference with the Constituent Assembly, and see how tall the Constituent Assembly is, as long as a constitution favorable to the Kuomintang is introduced under his control, see how you still bounce on the Communist Party!

However, what made Lao Jiang depressed was that the response to the Constituent Assembly he called for was not strong. The interest of the main party is not very great, and the small means of saying one thing and doing one thing in the past have hurt the people. The heart of the main party, how could it be evil again this time.

As a last resort, the veteran can only find out his heart and use all means to "invite" people, such as the Central Command and the Military Commander, who are engaged in large-scale activities, or threatened, or coerced, or simply kidnapped, but such a request method naturally makes Lao Jiang's reputation even more stinky. What's more, this is such a reckless means that it did not "invite" a few people. Why? KGB and T worked together, and before Lao Jiang's spies were ready to hire someone, that person had already avoided him.

This naturally made Lao Jiang angry half to death, but there was no way, originally he sent the spies of the military command and the central command to invite people to play hooliganism, which is a serious behavior of pressing the line, which can only be done secretly and cannot be said openly, once you can't catch someone, then there is really nothing you can do.

"Niang Xipi, it's all rice buckets, and I can't even invite a few people, what's the use of asking you!"

Needless to say, Dai Li was beaten by Lao Jiang again, to be honest, he was also very depressed, when will it be unsuccessful to invite a few people in the local military command of the party-state, and when will the T Communist Party be so powerful?

Dai Li knew that this must be an internal ghost within the military command, otherwise how could the news leak out? So after he went back this time, he was going to beat up the group of uncompetitive subordinates, and then investigate the problem of the ghosts.

However, for Lao Chiang, the most important question is not what is inside, but how the Constituent Assembly will end. At this time, there are not many people who respond to him, at least compared with the high-profile propaganda of the T Communist Party, the Political Consultative Conference is far behind, according to this trend, he will be completely exploded by the T Communist Party again!

The most important thing is that the United States has a great interest in the CPPCC, from the previous concealment and seemingly fair to the current completely inclined to the plan of the T Communist Party, which makes Lao Jiang have a chilling feeling, he really can't imagine, if the godfather abandons it, then how can he mix?

So why did the attitude of Americans suddenly change? As early as February 1944, Roosevelt hoped to send a military observation mission to Yan'an to gain a deep understanding of the actual state of the Communist Party and the anti-Japanese situation in North China. However, because of Chiang's obstruction, it was not until July 1944 that the Disick mission was able to make the trip.

After arriving in Yan'an, the mission made in-depth contact with the T Communist Party, and entered the front line of the Anti-Japanese War in North China to understand the actual situation, and finally came up with a report that was quite unfavorable to Chiang someone, or that Chiang was very unwilling to see.

Among these reports, the "1945 Policy Recommendations" are the most important and notable, including "The Military Weakness of U.S. Far East Policy," co-authored by Ludden and Hsieve, and "The Situation in China," drafted by Hsieh.

The report pointed out that the T Communist Party collected intelligence through various channels, and they mainly relied on the people, and most of the people were in the rear of the Japanese army, and they would act as intelligence officers with little to no pay; The morale of the communist army was high. Morale was low within the KMT, and most KMT officials were of low quality and usually used political pressure to complete their tasks; The Kuomintang government was very corrupt, and in the areas under its control, most of the Lend-Lease materials were bought and sold. The report also said that people hated serving as Kuomintang soldiers, and in order to prevent soldiers from escaping, they were often tied up and imprisoned; In the areas controlled by the T Communist Party, no one refused to perform military service, and no officers were seen abusing soldiers. The sharp contrast between the KMT and the CCP left a deep impression on US military observers such as Xie Weisi and Lu Deng. They suggested that the US Government adopt a realistic China policy. That is, whether we consider the current US war against Japan or from the perspective of maintaining the long-term interests of the United States in the Far East after the war, we should abandon the erroneous policy of simply supporting ****** and avoid tying US interests to the fate of the ****** bloc.
