Chapter 406: Air Disaster

Although everyone knows that Gu Zhutong's dismissal is only temporary, how many of the generals of the national army have a more intimate relationship than Gu Zhutong and Lao Jiang? If Lao Jiang took the blame for those miscellaneous generals who had been excluded, would he still be so polite? This kind of thinking soon became popular in the miscellaneous army and even the non-descendant line (Huangpu Sheng and the people of Jiangsu and Zhejiang are the most trusted and reused by Lao Jiang, and they are the real descendants, and even if the other people from other backgrounds have the ability, their status and treatment will be a lot worse. Among the generals of the Central Army, it spread

After some bargaining, the two parties soon reached the most basic agreement: the Red Party first made concessions on the issue of Jiangnan and southern Shaanxi, voluntarily gave up some of the newly occupied counties, and restored the territory division to the situation before the outbreak of the "Gannan Incident", while the Chongqing government agreed that the residents of those counties could move to the Fujian-Jiangxi border area and the northwest border region without hindrance if they wished, and Lao Chiang must also release Ye Ting and all other arrested persons within a month; Then, due to financial constraints, the Chongqing government would no longer pay military salaries to several regular armed forces of the Red Party, and in exchange, Lao Chiang had to agree to the establishment of the Northwest, Central Plains, North China, and Northeast four major theaters (called military regions within the Red Party), each theater had the right to organize its own army, without the permission of the Military Commission (it was useless if it was not permitted), but in principle, a military region could only have one field corps of a group army; The armed forces of the two parties retreated 10 kilometers each in the adjacent area as a military buffer zone, so as not to accidentally misfire and worsen the situation again, while Lao Chiang promised not to restrict the entry of personnel and materials into the major border areas, unlike when the Red Army was reorganized, the current Red Party is more confident, and after listening to Lao Chiang's promise, Zhou Gong immediately said that if there is another similar behavior, the Red Party will regard it as a declaration of war. Instead of just making a limited counterattack like before, Lao Jiang's face suddenly darkened

Lao Chiang was so angry that the spies of the military command (Note 1) naturally would not let go of this "good opportunity" to make meritorious contributions and invite favor. Secretly sent people to do tricks on the plane, and Ye Ting logically thought that Lao Jiang had paid such a big price to win the truce, and there was no possibility of turning his face now, and he was very excited after obtaining the Red Party Central Committee's promise to restore his party membership. I was anxious to rush to Lanzhou to report to the central government, but the security inspection of the plane was inevitably a little negligent, and unfortunately there was a plane crash on the way to Lanzhou. The crew on the plane, Ye Ting and more than a dozen other senior cadres of the Red Party, did not survive. They never thought that Lao Jiang really didn't dare to do it, but most of the villains below him "forgot their lives when they saw small profits", only thinking about how much credit they could make after killing these red party bosses, but they didn't know that the current Lao Jiang didn't dare to turn the red party at all, and as a result, both sides were pitted at once

But for Hu Weidong, a traverser who had just been appointed commander of the Central Plains Military Region a few days ago, after learning about this, he was surprised again by the coercive force of history. I can't help but sigh at the good fortune of the Red Party, although it is indeed a great loss that more than a dozen high-ranking cadres died at once, but coincidentally, the vast majority of these dozen people were actually the backbone of the international faction at the beginning, so after this air crash, the thinking within the Red Party became more unified. On the contrary, the cohesion has been greatly enhanced, which cannot but be said to be "Seon's lost horse". Thinking about the "Gannan Incident" in which the Red Party seemed to have suffered losses but actually gained the same benefits, Hu Weidong, who had experienced an inexplicable crossing incident, was even somewhat shaken by the atheist views he had always adhered to, "It is almost like providence for the chairman and the Red Party to lead China to stand up again"

However, as a brilliant technologist, even a devout religious believer would unconsciously adhere to a materialist stance in his work, not to mention that Hu Weidong had long been a staunch atheist, so this confusion was quickly and decisively rejected by himself. In addition, Hu Weidong, who is a traverser, is also the first senior cadre of the Red Party to guess that this matter may not be instructed by Lao Chiang, but purely by the people below who did it without authorization, because in history, even after Lao Chiang fled to Taiwan, he was not only cheated by the people below once or twice

But even so, Lao Jiang still has to bear the black cauldron, because if he admits that he did not manage his subordinates well, it will undoubtedly deal a greater blow to his prestige in the party and the army. On the other hand, it is also impossible for the Red Party to give up, regardless of whether the benefits objectively outweigh the damages, and if so many high-ranking cadres are assassinated but do not seek justice for them, they will also lose the hearts of the people, and besides, this is also a God-given opportunity, and on the premise of taking advantage of morality, whether the Red Party chooses to restart the war to expand the results of the war, or to force Lao Chiang to make more concessions, it does not have to worry too much about the pressure of domestic public opinion

However, an unexpected incident caused the Central Committee of the Red Party to change its attitude and decide to put aside the contradictions between the two parties first, so as to concentrate on Liliang to deal with the devils. Speaking of which, this is also a trapping incident, except that it was the Japanese Navy that cheated people, and it was the Japanese Army that was trapped

In March 1939, when the weather was getting warmer, the Pacific Fleet Command of the Soviet Red Navy was worried about thinking of a new excuse to continue to stay in Weihaiwei Port, but it was unexpectedly attacked by the Japanese army

In order to wash away the great shame of selling their battleships to the Soviets after being captured by the Chinese, and to prevent the rise of the Soviet Red Navy from posing a fatal threat to the Japanese mainland, the Japanese Combined Fleet sent almost all the large warships that can be used at present, and with the addition of auxiliary ships, there are no less than 30 medium-sized combat ships or above. In addition, the Japanese Navy's Military Command Department also sent thousands of land-based naval aviation planes from the many airfields and field airfields repaired and newly built in Luda, North Korea and other places to help in the war, and it is worth mentioning that although these thousands of planes were not dispatched at one time, the first batch still had a huge scale of more than 300 planes.

Note 1: It is true that Dai Li's ability is very strong, but the organizational structure of the military command is far less strict than that of the intelligence organs of the Red Party or the great powers, which on the one hand leads to full of loopholes in the secrecy work, and on the other hand, the big spies below often have the embarrassment of acting without his own permission, and as a result, he and Lao Chiang are in trouble (to be continued). )
