Hearing that Chang Ruiqing had made up his mind to investigate Soviet spies, Zhang Guotao and Ren Yijiang, the two spy leaders, no longer persuaded each other. Anyway, no matter how much this Soviet spy was caught, he couldn't catch the two of them, because Zhang Guotao was probably one of the few people Trotsky hated in the world, and he couldn't have been a Trotskyist. And Ren Yijiang is the first batch of followers of Chang Ruiqing, although the ability to engage in spy activities is not strong, but there is no problem with loyalty, and he is in charge of the secret bureau in charge of domestic counter-espionage, only he arrests others, and no one will arrest him as a Soviet spy!

However, the two spies had no intention of getting up and leaving, because the two of them were here to report to Chang Ruiqing. This work is to support some Muslim extremists who have been exiled to China to form groups to go to the Soviet Union and Central Asia to find trouble.

"Chairman, this is a report submitted by General Zhong Zhijie of the Central Asia Branch of our National Intelligence Service on the suppression of Islamic forces by the Soviet authorities in Central Asia." Zhang Guotao first took out a stack of articles and photos from a bag and handed them to Chang Ruiqing: "Chairman, the Soviet GCD is now implementing a policy of eliminating a Qiē religious force in China, and after completely suppressing the Christian forces, since the end of last year, Muslim sects in Central Asia and Transcaucasia have also become the target of the NKVD of the Soviet Union. A large number of sect leaders and imams were sentenced to death, and some believers were arrested or exiled. However, many people escaped the pursuit of Soviet internal affairs personnel and fled into the territory of China's outer provinces. And under the high pressure of the Soviet GCD, the originally moderate sects were either eliminated or dissolved on their own. The rest of the people who still insist on religious practice are radical fanatics. Many of these fanatics fled to our territory, the most influential of whom was a man named Muhammad. Yusuf's Shiite imam, who is 38 years old. Before the World War, he studied at a seminary in Arak, Persia, and received the Persian ayatollah (title, meaning sign of Allah) Abdullah. Karim. Haeri. Yazdi's guidance.

Chairman, you see, this is Muhammad. Yusuf's photo with a headscarf and a beard is. By his side are his wife and children, this guy has four wives and a dozen dolls. Now it's all under our control.

This picture is of Muhammad. Yusuf's disciple Abu. Qasim. Kasney. His father was a tribal leader in Kazakhstan, and he himself served in the tsarist army and attended a regular military school. When the Red Army first arrived in Central Asia, it raised a team to fight against the Red Army. After the defeat, he went into hiding in Tibet and later fled to Afghanistan, where he was said to have good relations with local sect leaders. Entered the territory of our country at the beginning of this year and is now with his teacher Muhammad. Yusuf together in our control zhì......

Other than that. Chang Erye, who had just arrived in Kuwait, also said in the telegram. Now Reza. Khan's 'secularization' in Persia led to the exile of many respected Muslim religious figures in Iraq, gathering in places like Baghdad and Najaf. Second Master Chang has established contacts with some of them and is ready to recommend some people to participate in the Allah Party ......"

Zhang Guotao explained very carefully, telling the personal experiences of several Muslim religious leaders who were preparing to become the leaders of Allah. Chang Ruiqing nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, just use these people." But you can't be suspicious. By the way, the outer frontier is now dominated by Han Chinese, right? You should also pay attention to the religious situation there and see if you want to sponsor some temples and Taoist temples from the mainland to develop there. All right. That's it for now. ”

Zhang Guotao and Ren Yijiang were able to get Chang Ruiqing's instructions, and nodded with a smile. Then he took his leave. When he walked out of the door, he saw Chang Ruiqing's chief guard Chen Cheng trotting in all the way, and greeted them with a smile on the way. When Chen Cheng ran into Chang Ruiqing's office, he first calmed his breath, and then shouted respectfully: "Report!" ”

Chang Ruiqing was sitting at the table reviewing the official documents, and when he saw Chen Cheng coming in, he smiled and said, "It's rhetoric, is there anything important?" Chen Cheng took a step forward and said in a low voice: "The Northwest Military and Political Commission of Lanzhou has sent an urgent telegram, the county seat of Jinta has been recovered, and the air force reconnaissance has found that a large group of bandit troops are retreating north along the Heishui River and will soon enter the territory of Mongolian Province. ”

"How many are there?"

"About 15,000 people! It seems that their backbone has been gathered! ”

……

At this time, it was already the early winter season when the north wind was howling, and the vast Badain Jaran Desert was full of slaughter. Although the cold wind is like a blade, the march is quite smooth. On this desolate land on the edge of the Badain Jaran Desert, a marching force of 15,000 men marched north in a haphazard formation. Most of the people in the team did not wear military uniforms, but wore old cotton jackets and military hats, and at first glance they knew that they were new recruits who had just joined the army. There were no artillery or cavalry, but most of them carried a rifle or a submachine gun, dozens of machine guns were carried by some soldiers in gray-blue old uniforms, and there were about 5,000 people who did not carry weapons, but carried two large baskets with large bags of grain.

Just after eleven o'clock in the morning, the troops stopped their advance and began to rest and prepare lunch. The officers and men of each company formed a catering unit and sat around the field stove waiting for the meal to be served. The company commander, deputy company commander, instructor, and three platoon commanders seized the time to do ideological and political work for the soldiers. At present, almost all the soldiers of the People's Revolutionary Army are new recruits, but these cadres are all experienced internationalist fighters, including cadres who had "aided the hungry Red Army", Mongols or Koreans in the Soviet Union, and revolutionaries from Japan. Moreover, these people can speak relatively fluent Chinese, although there is an accent barrier, but it is not difficult to communicate with these Gansu recruits.

Ren Fucheng circled the troops with his hands behind his back, he served as a senior commander in the Soviet Russian Red Army, and he also experienced the whole process of the Red Army's transformation from a rabble to the elite of a hundred battles, and knew how to transform the more than 10,000 recruits in front of him into a revolutionary army armed with Trotskyist ideas. And he is not alone, with nearly 1,500 BJP's own or GC International-supported experienced cadres at his disposal. And the huge backer of the Soviet Union, as long as there is a winter time, wait until next spring. There is already a revolutionary force in the Kobdo steppe that can make the reactionaries in Nanking unable to eat and sleep!

He was accompanied by the Chief of the General Staff of the People's Revolutionary Army, the German internationalist fighter Otto. Braun. The two of them turned around, watching the recruits in the army who had just joined the army eating with relish around the pots of budding rice, but their expressions were full of panic that they couldn't hide. Ren Fucheng said to Braun with his hands behind his back: "This time it's really thanks to the ** of Zhong G!" Our team has just opened, and although there are quite a few of them, they are mostly a rabble. Only more than 1,000 cadres have really been tested, and without months of beating, they will not be able to train an iron army! Comrade Braun. Let's see if there's a plan to have the troops do some combat training on the march. At least let the troops master marching columns and shooting, right? ”

It was the first time Braun had led such a large army, and it was made up of recruits with no military training, and it was not easy to march as hard as he did now. There was nothing he could do to train him while marching. Just when he was about to open his mouth to persuade Ren Fucheng to dispel this idea. Suddenly, I heard someone shouting in Russian: "Enemy situation! Enemy situation found in the northwest! ”

Enemy? What's going on?

Ren Fucheng and Braun glanced at each other, and they both saw panicked expressions in each other's expressions. The two then looked northwest, and saw smoke and dust rising in the distance. Ren Fucheng hurriedly asked people to lead the war horse, jumped up by himself, and then stood upright on the horse's back, raised the telescope hanging on his chest to look at the place where the smoke and dust were rising in the northwest.

Under the sun, at least thousands of Wehrmacht cavalry in yellow-colored uniforms were slowly attacking in formation on the sand about 6 kilometers away! Not much. Another sentry in charge of reconnaissance shouted in Russian: "The enemy has been discovered due north!" Enemy situation detected in the northeast ......"

Ren Fucheng looked in the direction pointed out by the shout, and saw that about the same number of Wehrmacht cavalry were forming in formation on the sand due north and northeast! The officers of the People's Revolutionary Army, who had already gathered around Ren Fucheng, all involuntarily let out a strange inhalation sound. Ren Fucheng put down the binoculars and looked left and right. The cadres of the People's Revolutionary Party next to them had frightened expressions on their faces.

Braun stared into the distance, and he said: "I'm afraid it's the regular army of the reactionaries, with 12,000 cavalry, and it seems that there are two cavalry divisions!" Comrade President, what should we do? ”

Ren Fucheng gritted his teeth and scolded: "Damn it! The surname Mao has given us a damn! Saying that, he sneered again: "Isn't it just ten thousand cavalry!" Today, I want to let Chang Ruiqing's lackeys smash a few front teeth and let them know that our People's Revolutionary Army is not easy to mess with! ”

He shouted the order: "Arming, ring defense!" The 1st Regiment is responsible for the north, the 2nd Regiment is responsible for the northwest, the 3rd Regiment is responsible for the northeast, the 4th and 5th regiments are responsible for the east and west, the 6th Regiment is responsible for the south, and the regiment directly under the army is the reserve! ”

Immediately, several heralds around him ran in all directions. As he ran, he shouted: "Arm, ring defense, ring defense!" The army that was having lunch was suddenly in disarray, and the soldiers had already seen that something was wrong from the smoke and dust approaching on three sides, and when they heard someone shouting for arming and defending, they knew that there was going to be a war, and immediately a few quick reactions wanted to flee. As a result, the sound of pistol firing rang out one after another for a while......

The headquarters of the People's Revolutionary Army is located on the west bank of the Heishui River, flat on all sides, and there is no terrain at all to rely on for defense, and the so-called Heishui River is just the scale of a small river, and it is the middle of winter, the weather is dry and rainless, and it has already become a small stream that cannot be smaller, and it cannot play any defensive role at all. Moreover, the People's Revolutionary Army did not have any horses, deer, barbed wire, mines, etc. There is no way to effectively defend this wilderness. The highly mobile Wehrmacht cavalry, on the other hand, was able to attack from any direction at will.

What's worse is that these People's Revolutionary Army are nothing more than 10,000 temporarily recruited peasants plus more than 1,000 backbones, and the recruited peasants have no training and rely on the backbone to fight reluctantly, and no one knows how many waves of attacks the enemy can withstand.

However, the Wehrmacht side did not seem to be in a hurry to attack, and when it advanced to a distance of three kilometers, it held still, but coldly watched the People's Revolutionary Army hurriedly deploy its formation in the wilderness, which was very much Song Xiangzhiren's meaning. Seeing that his subordinates had finally set up defenses, dozens of machine guns were erected. Bags of bud rice were also stacked to look like fortifications.

Ren Fucheng let out a long breath, jumped off the horse, and squinted at the sun in the sky. At this time, the sun is at its most intense, estimated to be around 12 noon. It seems that this afternoon, there will be a bloody decisive battle on the banks of the Heishui River. It's the last battle of the People's Revolutionary Army!

"Chairman, what are they waiting for?" Chen Shaoyu's trembling voice rang in Ren Fucheng's ears.

"Cannon, they're waiting for cannon!" Ren Fucheng replied coldly.

"So, what are we going to do?"

Ren Fucheng shook his head and did not answer. I don't know how to answer. Chen Shaoyu looked around, then approached him, and said in a low voice: "Chairman Ren." Saying that the enemy is not attacking, it is better to organize forces to break through! ”

"Breakout?" Ren Fucheng glared at Chen Shaoyu and said sullenly: "What are you doing?" Just these recruit eggs? ”

"As chairman, the key now is to preserve the backbone ......" Chen Shaoyu stomped his feet. Gritted his teeth and said: "What matters now is to keep the party's leadership core!" ”

Ren Fucheng looked at Chen Shaoyu coldly. After being silent for a long time, a desperate wry smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Luqing, forget it, we can't run away...... They don't do anything in Jinta, they send guns and ammunition and food, and they let us expand the team, they are waiting for today's opportunity! Therefore, they must have dispatched more than 10,000 cavalry, no matter where we break through. There must be ambushes waiting for us......"

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The conversation between the two was not over, and the shelling of the Wehrmacht really began! The intensity of the shelling was not great. However, the shells hit very accurately, blowing up craters one after another on the positions of the People's Revolutionary Army, and from time to time broken limbs were blown open and flew in all directions. The recruits, who had only been in the army for a short time, were in an uproar, and the voices of the BJP backbone were immediately resounding. The whole line of defense was disturbed for a while, but the Wehrmacht cavalry on the opposite side still did not take the opportunity to attack, but extended their line to both sides. Soon, the cavalry of the Wehrmacht, which had been divided into three units, was united, and the battle line was extended to the east and west sides of the People's Revolutionary Army, forming a semi-encirclement formation surrounded by three and one. And in the distance to the south, there is also a faint sky of smoke and dust.

"Chairman Ren, it seems that the enemy wants to surround us and destroy us all!" Braun had already seen the other man's intentions, and his two large hands clenched the binoculars tightly, looking motionless ahead.

Hearing this, Chen Shaoyu suddenly threw away the binoculars, sat on the sand, and cried: "It's over, it's over, the backbone of our People's Revolutionary Party is here!" It's all over now......"

The other senior cadres of the People's Revolutionary Army present all looked at each other, although they were still tense and did not cry, but their facial expressions were all the same full of despair!

At this moment, the sound of artillery bombardment suddenly intensified, and shells rained down on the perimeter of the position of the People's Revolutionary Army. It looks like the Wehrmacht offensive is about to begin......

……

"Runshuai, Runshuai! Xia Xucang sent a telegram from Jiayuguan, and the 4th Infantry Division and the 3rd Cavalry Division surrounded the bandit brigade on the side of the Heishui River! Xuanxia's father excitedly rushed into Mao Zd's study, and his white and clean skin exuded an excited red light, and the shouting voice could be heard from afar.

Mao ZD was looking down and Cai Hesen were studying the reports on the inventory of Soviet spies sent from all over the northwest, and watched Xuanxia's father come in, just glanced at him lightly. He said, "Got it." "Just look at the report.

Cai Hesen smiled and said, "Runzhi, our affairs can be studied slowly, you better arrange the battle on the front line first...... Now that the main force of the trotten bandits is surrounded, do you want to annihilate them immediately, or do you want to send people to persuade them to surrender? ”

Mao ZD snorted: "I'm afraid it's not easy to persuade him to surrender, even if Ren Fucheng still wants to stay useful, he has to think about his family!" Trotsky sent internationalist fighters who did not have family in the USSR? ”

He thought for a moment, then turned his head to Xuanxia's father and said, "Sue Xia Xucang, take your time and don't worry, they have fallen into the trap and will definitely not be able to escape." I still mean to catch as many people as alive as possible, among those people are the internationalist fighters sent by Trotsky, this is ironclad evidence of the Soviet Union's aggression against China, we had better catch a few. Otherwise, cut off the Heishui River, cut off their water supply, and besiege them for a few more days, when they are thirsty, and maybe it will be easier for them to surrender. ”

Looking at the back of Xuanxia's father who turned to leave, Cai Hesen smiled slightly: "Runzhi, this time the bandit is a big injury, I wonder if Trotsky will send someone to us?" ”

Mao ZD snorted heavily: "Then do you still need to ask?" The core of Trotskyism is the export revolution, the world revolution, and in essence it is to carry out aggression and expansion in the name of the export revolution, and we are the largest neighbor of the Soviet Union, a poor and backward agricultural country, and the most ideal object of aggression for Trotsky, how can he let us go? ”

"So what are we going to do?" Cai Hesen's expression became solemn. "China is now a thousand-day thief-proof, how can it develop with peace of mind?"

Mao ZD sneered: "That's why I asked Xia Xucang to find a way to catch him alive." The living internationalist fighters are ironclad evidence, and with this living evidence, we will be able to expose the true face of the Soviet aggressors in front of the people of the whole country! As long as everyone recognizes this, we will not be afraid of Trotsky's export revolution! (To be continued.) )
