114 Meeting with representatives of the Soviet Union
Although the intervention of the Soviets was expected, Han Guang was still surprised when he heard the news. He hurriedly stood up and asked, "From which direction?" ”
Chief of Staff Yan Su pointed to the direction on the map, "The Soviet Red Army and the Mongolian People's Army formed the 57th Army of the Soviet-Mongolian Alliance, and now it has been stationed in Kulen, and the vanguard has also begun to move towards our side. ”
Han Guang frowned, this matter is not trivial, it means that the Soviet Union has directly intervened by force, this is not a simple matter of recovering Mongolia, but also related to the future and fate of the two countries.
After thinking for a moment, he said to Wu Biao, the chief of the guard: "Report these situations to the Expeditionary Force Headquarters immediately, and I will personally report to General Batu in a while." ”
"Yes!" Wu Biao was Han Guang's old subordinate for many years, and after hearing this order, he leaned on his heels and went to run errands.
Before the phone could be answered, the staff officer on duty walked in again and said, "Sir, there are diplomatic envoys from outside who claim to be Soviet and Mongolian diplomats, saying that they want to see the supreme commander. ”
"Diplomatic envoys?" Han Guang and Yan Su glanced at each other, and said, "Let him wait in the living room first, and say that I will be there in a while." ”
"It seems that they are planning to salute first and then soldiers, Commander Han, be careful." Yan Su said slowly.
"Don't worry, take a sip of tea first. The climate in Mongolia is too dry, let them wait for a while. As he spoke, Han Guang waved his hand and motioned for someone to serve tea.
From boiling the water, then brewing the tea, washing the tea, and finally serving the two of them a delicious tasting, it has been more than half an hour.
After tasting and playing, Han Guang stood up and put on the military hat on the table and straightened it, "It doesn't matter if he salutes first and then the soldiers or the soldiers first salute, in short, we are soldiers who will block the water and cover the earth." Say no more, let's go! Go, go, go. ”
Han Guang met with visitors at the temporary headquarters of the Chechen Khan. Although Chechen Khan is a steppe city, the city's infrastructure is not very good, and the whole city is only a few roads, around which many modern houses are built. The windows of the houses are small and the walls are thick, which has a lot to do with the local environment.
Han Guang's headquarters was located in the former city government building. Originally, he didn't intend to disturb the people, but these Mongolian revolutionary parties openly confronted, and Han Guang had to make an example of the monkeys, so he simply sent troops to occupy the government building directly, and then hung the national flag at the door of the building.
There were two people in the delegation, a blonde and blue-eyed foreigner wearing a heavy tweed coat, and a small Mongolian wearing an oil-stained robe. These two people don't look very well dressed, but they are very lofty, and when they walk in, their heads are raised like a rooster.
But no matter how big the arrogance is, after being hung for dozens of minutes, I can't help but be a little disheartened. The two of them have been sitting in the living room since they came in, and they didn't even serve tea alone, which is a very bad feeling of being left out.
It wasn't until the two of them reached the extreme of patience that Han Guang walked in with a military coat, Yan Su, the chief of staff, and two Mongolian and Russian interpreters.
After Han Guang walked in, he sat down on the chair in the middle, this chair was newly added, and the furnishings here used to be only low tables and cushions, and there were no chairs. Han Guang felt very inconvenient, so he asked people to bring a few chairs.
After sitting down, before the two of them could speak, Han Guang asked, "Do you represent the Soviet government and the Mongolian puppet government?" ”
After the two looked at each other, the representative of the Soviet Union stood up and said, "Then may I ask, can you represent the Nanjing government?" ”
This is a typical Georgian man, not tall, with a thick beard, a pipe in his hand, and a spitting smoke from time to time, and his figure seems to be stronger than the Mongolian representative next to him.
Han Guang lowered his head and took out a military dagger, which frightened the two of them for a moment, but he didn't make any outrageous moves, but turned the blade of the knife to pick the ash in his fingernails, "It's all nonsense!" Of course, I can't represent the Nanjing government. If I can represent the Nanjing government, still eat sand here? I can represent myself, would you like to talk to a bad bastard? ”
This is a scoundrel, and the representative of the Soviet Union is also a soldier, so naturally he will not be frightened by his words, so he simply said directly: "Your Excellency, you can't represent the Nanjing government, so you should notify the person who can represent it." ”
"Who can represent the Nanjing government, tell me? I don't even know who you're asking me to inform? Han Guang also followed with a rhetorical question.
"Since Your Excellency cannot represent the Nanjing government, then why did you send troops here, don't you know ......" The Mongolian representative couldn't help but speak.
But before he finished speaking, Han Guang, who was the real-time translator here, scolded angrily when he heard it: "Shut up! What kind of thing are you? The old man next to you is a foreign representative. What about you? What kind of bullshit are you, come talk to me! ”
These two sentences angered the Mongolian representative who was considered to be somewhat cultivated, and when he was about to talk about the Mongolian he represented, Han Guang waved his hand and said: "No matter what the purpose of you two is here, you can't fight Lao Tzu." I'll tell you one thing, I'm sorry! I don't listen to anything, to be honest, I'm not a senior officer of the Wehrmacht, I'm just a gangster who broke into the dock on the beach, and I don't have any elite and mighty divisions of the Wehrmacht under me, they are all a bunch of miscellaneous people. ”
"I can't represent the Nanjing government, I just know that after I lead someone to kill the rebels in Kulun, I will be able to get promoted and make a fortune, and I will be able to make a wife and a son! Don't tell me anything else the fuck. ”
After speaking, he raised the teacup in front of him and lifted it, seeing that the two were still talking, Han Guang frowned and said, "The two stupid big men at the door, why are you still waiting for Lao Tzu to call you?" Don't I know if I lift the teacup to send off a guest? ”
Wu Biao, who was standing guard at the door, was happy in his heart, but he immediately stood up and said: "Yes, commander-in-chief!" ”
As he spoke, Wu Biao, who was neatly draped, walked in with two guards wearing steel helmets and carrying *, and he stretched out his big hand and said, "Two, please!" ”
The two deputies knew that they had met a scoundrel today, and they didn't let go of any cruel words, but they humiliated this person, and walked out with indignation in their hearts.
When they walked through the atrium, they saw a group of officers and soldiers smoking cigarettes and carrying guns like barbarians, all staring at them with their eyes, and such murderous eyes made the two representatives who had been on the battlefield feel a little uncomfortable, and they simply quickened their pace and walked outside.
When they reached the door, the Soviet representative said to the Mongol: "What an unreasonable bunch of barbarians, but they will definitely pay for their rampantness." Comrade Borkin, get ready to fight when you get back! ”
……
After the two deputies left, Yan Su came over and said, "Just send them away?" ”
Han Guang sighed and said, "Otherwise, what else can I do?" The Soviets dared to send troops to Cullen at this time, and they sent representatives to negotiate directly with the front-line troops, which already showed their attitude. In my opinion, I came here to scare and scare me, to see if I can achieve the goal of surrendering without a fight. What are you talking nonsense with them? ”
Yan Su sighed, "I didn't expect Moscow to be so ruthless this time. They still helped us in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, but I didn't expect that it has only been a few years now. ”
"This time and that time. When I was in Northeast China, I came into contact with these guys, and they were as insatiable as the Japanese, and now they are counterattacking on the battlefield against Germany, and Japan is being held back by us, and the implementation of the southward strategy will no longer pose a threat to the Soviet Union, so naturally there is no basis for cooperation between us. ”
Han Guang also said, "The importance of Mongolia's strategic location is self-evident, for the Soviet Union, maintaining the best way is the best way, starting from the strategy for many years to come, it is natural that it will not hesitate to tear our face with us for these reasons." I think we still have to prepare for war. ”
Yan Su nodded and said, "Yes, the purpose of our entry here is not to put on a show, I think we should prepare for battle as soon as possible." The Soviet-Mongolian coalition army is no better than the previous Mongolian puppet army, well-equipped, baptized by war, and very strong in combat. ”
"Notice, all personnel are on duty 24 hours a day, and no one is allowed to ask for leave to go out. By the way, the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the Punishment Battalion were transferred to the northeast of Chechen Khan, and if the Soviet-Mongolian coalition forces dared to move, they would fight a war of movement. Han Guang said firmly.
……
The humiliation of the Soviet-Mongolian negotiators sent by the Soviet-Mongolian forces brought back that the de facto Mongol leader Choibalsan and his comrade-in-arms, General Kiamilev of the Soviet Red Army, had to rethink the course of their response.
Qiao Bashan clasped his hands behind his back and paced back and forth with his fat belly, "General, I think the meaning of Nanjing is very clear, and only force can solve it." ”
Kiamilev took off the fat military hat on his head, scratched his scalp that had no hair, and said: "Sir, as you know, we and China are still nominally allies of the anti-fascists, and we can't handle some issues so obviously. ”
"And you mean to let them kill them?" Choibalsan was a little puzzled and a little excited.
"No, no, no, you misunderstood me. I mean that at this stage, we can only form a Soviet-Mongolian alliance and maintain the form of autonomy. Now let's look at the course of events and Moscow's attitude. I don't think we're going to let it go, don't worry! The Soviet people would not abandon their old friends who fought with them. ”
Choibalshan looked relieved, "I think I will send an infantry division to Chechen Khan to confront them, and if there is a real fight, the large army will be able to arrive later." ”
"It's the right move. In addition, Moscow will soon send its air force here. ”
When Choibalsan heard this, his mouth opened and his joy overflowed.
