Chapter 179: Resources

"What did Qin Wei leave behind?"

Zheng Jiemin was 'subdued' by Qin Wei. And the reason why he, the secretary general of the military command, was subdued was because of the guarantee of the Yankees of later generations to pass through the whole world: carrots and sticks. It's a pity that he doesn't know that Qin Wei's so-called big stick is just a phantom and can't hurt people, otherwise I'm afraid he would have thrown people into the dungeon and squeezed all the value alive.

However, as a veteran spy, because of a momentary trance, he didn't notice Qin Wei's small movements when he left, which was his mistake.

But again, no one will trouble him for this mistake, on the contrary, some people may even thank him.

For example: the prime minister of the future republic who watched him and Qin Wei leave in the back.

"See for yourself."

Pulling Bogu into the car, Zhou Enlai handed the note he was holding tightly in his hand to the other party.

"What, this ......" Before he finished reading the content of the note, Bogu had already raised his head in horror: "Chiang Kai-shek, he is so bold!" ”

"It's not so daring, he has long wanted to wipe out our Communist Party. It was just his wish all along. Zhou Enlai sighed lightly and took the note back from Bogu's hand: "But it's a pity." He was destined to be unpopular. You see, he hides people so tightly, but they are still trying to help us. This note, apparently, has been prepared for a long time. It's just that I haven't had a chance to give it away. ”

"No wonder this Qin Wei always acts as if I'm particularly offended, he wants to hide his true will?" Bogu became excited.

"It cannot be said that, judging from the current situation, he should have only had a good impression of us, or rather, he was dissatisfied with Chiang Kai-shek's behavior of provoking infighting without such a foreign enemy being driven. So. They are going to leak their secret plans to us, and express their support for us in fighting all invading enemies. Zhou Enlai said solemnly: "I can feel that he still has a certain sense of estrangement." ”

"Estranged? It has already reached this point, if Chiang Kai-shek is allowed to know, will his life on the side of the Kuomintang still be as free as it is now? Bogu dissatisfied.

"That's his choice. All we can do is fight for it. Zhou Enlai smiled again, "Moreover, do you think what he said today will make Chiang Kai-shek know the truth?" ”

"Zheng Jiemin is a close confidant of Chiang Kai-shek." Bogu Road.

"But he has a good relationship with Qin Wei." Zhou Enlai said with a smile: "Moreover, according to the previous intelligence, after Qin Wei arrived in Chongqing, the first senior military official to contact was Zheng Jiemin. The two have maintained a pretty good relationship until now. Zheng Jiemin's wife Ke Shufang even helped Qin Wei find a woman...... This is not an ordinary relationship. Zheng Jiemin is cursing Qin Wei. ”

"It looks like that, too. But Zheng Jiemin is the director of the secretariat of the military command after all, with a high position of power, and he has always been very trusted by Chiang Kai-shek, in case he ......"

"Hehe, since Qin Wei dared to say something like that in front of us. That shows that he is sure to restrain Zheng Jiemin. Otherwise, don't say it's him. It is He Yingqin and Bai Zhengxi. I don't necessarily have the courage to say those things in such a situation. Zhou Enlai said.

"Yes, I'm too careful. But if that's the case, how can we continue to fight for this Qin Wei? Bogu asked again: "He was tightly hidden by Lao Jiang, but it is not easy to touch." ”

"Yes," Zhou Enlai sighed, "and that's where we're the most tricky." Around Qin Wei. Either the military commander or the central commander, occasionally going out, the contact with some high-ranking officials and generals of the Kuomintang......"

"He also has a good relationship with major universities...... Bogu said suddenly.

"Don't hit that idea." Zhou Enlai shook his head directly, "I have studied what Qin Wei did in Chongqing. He's been looking for things to do for those experts and professors, and he's even made some people far away. I think he probably doesn't like to let these scholars get involved in politics. ”

"But didn't he bring these people to Kong Xiangxi some time ago?" Bogu Road.

"That's different." Zhou Enlai shook his head again, "Kong Xiangxi is guilty of public anger, everyone has long had grievances, and someone took the lead, so naturally they all have to scold one by one." But if these scholars are simply pushed out for the sake of having a relationship with him, the nature will be different. ”

"So what do we do? Just watching such a person who may have a good impression of us and is willing to help us is far away from us, and can't even say a few words? Bogu frowned and said: "You must know that Qin Wei's status on Chiang Kai-shek's side is very high. Even He Yingqin and Bai Zhengxi were willing to sell his account, which was something that even Chiang Kai-shek couldn't do. ”

"And he also has access to the top secrets of the Kuomintang, which is something that so many of our intelligence officers can't do with all their efforts." Zhou Enlai said with a smile.

"You're still smiling...... It's a big gold mine. If we can pull it over, how much effort can we save for our development? And how many dangers can we avoid? Bogu shouted.

"Speaking of gold mines, do you have any thoughts on anything on it?" Zhou Enlai suddenly took out the note and spread it out, "There are so many good things." ”

"What's that?" Bogu didn't look closely just now, he only saw the intelligence that Chiang Kai-shek, He Yingqin, and Bai Zhengxi planned to plot to drive the New Fourth Army to Jiangbei and set up an ambush on the road in an attempt to annihilate the main force of the New Fourth Army. Before he even finished reading this information, he was so anxious that he almost jumped up, and naturally he didn't look at it carefully.

"There are five big gold mines, five big copper mines, three big coal mines, and two big oil fields in Outer Mongolia." Zhou Enlai sighed, "It seems that the thing he sold to Kong Xiangxi and the British two big oil fields is true, and the oil fields are not fake as they are said outside, they should be true." Unfortunately, it's all out of our control. ”

"Outer Mongolia...... What does he mean? Do you want us to ask the Soviet Union for it? Bogu asked.

"Maybe that's what it means." Zhou Enlai tapped his fingers lightly on his knees and fell into deep thought. It is impossible for Qin Wei not to know that Outer Mongolia is now under the control of the Soviets, and that Choibalshan has declared independence in more than 20 years with the Soviet thighs in his arms...... Although in 1924, in the Sino-Soviet Agreement signed between the Beiyang government and the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union had recognized Outer Mongolia as Chinese territory and recognized China's complete and permanent sovereignty in Outer Mongolia. But in 1927, when Chiang Kai-shek was in power, the Soviet Union turned its face and asked Chiang Kai-shek more than once to recognize the independence of Outer Mongolia. In 1928, there was a large-scale reunification and progress movement in Outer Mongolia that opposed independence and demanded the return of the motherland, as a result, the Soviet Union marched into Outer Mongolia for bloody suppression on the grounds of "counterinsurgency", and the whole of Outer Mongolia was bloody. Since then, however, the Chinese army has not entered Outer Mongolia again. After that, Chiang Kai-shek's government was busy suppressing the Communists and the righteous forces in the south, and then the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and the Nanjing government became increasingly unable to anticipate the affairs of Outer Mongolia. The pro-Soviet Choibalshan took advantage of the opportunity to develop again, and in addition, Japan also created an incident of Manchurian independence, and Outer Mongolia even signed a "border" agreement with the puppet state of Manchukuo to engage in the act of splitting the country. At this point, Outer Mongolia formed a de facto separation during the Chinese Civil War...... But Qin Wei has now handed over the addresses of more than a dozen large mines in Outer Mongolia, and even the addresses of large oil fields, what does he mean?

"It's still Qin Wei who is right: if you fall behind, you will be beaten! …… You deserve to be beaten! ”

's own things were forcibly snatched by others, and the person who snatched them was still a "comrade". Unconsciously, Zhou Enlai's fists were clenched tightly.

"I'll send a telegram to the central government when I go back, and I'll go back to Yan'an."

"Back to Yan'an?"

"That's right." With a light fist, Zhou Enlai spread the note back on his lap, "Do you remember how much money Zhaoyuan provided to the central government last year?" ”

"Last year, when the war started, the gold from Zhaoyuan could not be shipped. This year...... Even Zhaoyuan City was occupied by the Japanese. Bogu said in a muffled voice.

"But our comrades are still trying. One by two, one by one, or even one centimeter by one, and even sacrificed one's life for a little bit of gold. The Japanese 'Kinugawa Mining Company' was also prevented from operating normally. Comrades are actually protecting our precious resources with their lives. Zhou Enlai sighed.

"What does this have to do with you going back to Yan'an? Do you really want to reach out to the Soviet Union......" Bogu said.

"Why can't you?" Zhou Enlai said indifferently: "They are all comrades." They are here to help us get rid of the oppression of imperialism, capitalism, and feudalism, and we can also help them to exploit mineral resources. Moreover, the Soviet Union also recognized China's sovereignty over Outer Mongolia, and it was only natural for it to open mines on its own land. No one can say anything. ”

"Yes...... But that would have angered the Soviet Union. It's not that you don't know how to tell them, ......" Bogu was shocked by Zhou Enlai's words. Who doesn't know what the situation is in Outer Mongolia? Chiang Kai-shek did not say anything about the current occupation of the central part of the country, and the fact that they were able to come forward in such a powerful place would probably only anger the Soviet Union even more. The Chinese Communist Party is already in a difficult situation, and Chiang Kai-shek is now sharpening his knives against them, regardless of foreign enemies, if he pushes the Soviet Union to the opposite side again......

"Don't be in a hurry. Although the minerals recorded in this book did make me very excited, and even made me greedy, I was not so impulsive. Zhou Enlai looked at Bogu with a smile: "I'm just going to discuss it with my comrades and think of a way." In the short term, I think we'll just think we'll see if we can get a little help from it, and the rest, that's a long-term thing, and it will take more effort ......" (To be continued......
