"Smack...... A bang. In a fit of rage, Stalin smashed the clip in his hand on the forehead of Szyvoshilov, the head of the Military Council of the Revolution, who was standing across from his desk.

"Voroshilov! The Politburo of the Central Committee has entrusted you with the glorious task of exterminating the Trotsky bandits, and has high hopes for you and the commander of the Far Eastern Front, Budyonny, but how did you do it! I told you to cross the Amur before Trotsky's bandit army grows stronger, to recover the Vla's unit Stoke, and to drive all Trotsky's rebels into the icy Sea to feed the fish! But what about you? You are afraid of sacrifices, you are afraid of losing troops, you have to prepare, you have to wait until the Amur freezes ... Well, now it is ready, the Amur River is frozen, but the enemy is also ready, there is a strong defensive line, and there are aircraft and artillery aided by the imperialists of China and Japan! As a result, the Politburo of the Central Committee and I only received casualties reports! In just one month, 150,000 people were killed and wounded, but even Khabarovsk was not beaten and humiliated! What a shame!! ”

Stalin roared loudly in his Georgian Russian, causing everyone in the office to shudder. Voroshilov was even more trembling, not daring to distinguish a word, only daring to listen respectfully to Stalin's reprimand.

Stalin's anger was actually somewhat justified, and the performance of the Soviet Red Army in this war with the Trotskyists was indeed unsatisfactory. In the face of the Trotskyist Red Army's already impenetrable defensive line, it was just fighting to the death. Gnaw at the openings with artillery fire and soldiers' lives. Although the plans for the preparation of artillery fire ... It's so detailed that it can't be more detailed. The daily delivery of shells to the front line can be described as astronomical even compared to the First World War. But the Trotskyist Red Army also had no less troops and firepower than theirs! As Stalin said, China and Japan are also using every minute to send supplies to the Far East. And the Japanese sent a huge military advisory group, including heavy artillery and aviation, almost directly involved in the war! It greatly offset the firepower and air superiority of the Soviet Red Army, turning the original sea of fire tactics into a sea of blood tactics.

The speed with which he turned his face and did not recognize people, as well as his determination and strength to intervene in the war, shocked and helpless the top brass of the Soviet Red Army, including Stalin and Voroshilov!

If China is still afraid of the Soviet Union's direct attack on Xinjiang or the instruction of China to launch a "suicidal" attack...... The Soviet Union had no way to deal with Japan at all, and the two countries basically did not share a border on land. At sea, although the Japanese Navy was broken, it still took no effort to clean up the Gangut-class ships of the Soviet Navy. In fact, half of Stalin's anger today is due to Japan, a treacherous former ally.

Voroshilov saw that after Stalin fired a fire, he had gradually calmed down, and he was young

"Comrade Stalin, now Trotsky has taken refuge in both Japanese and Chinese imperialism, and has acquired their heavy artillery, aircraft, and mercenaries (referring to Wang Zhongyi)."

In particular, the heavy artillery and aircraft of the Japanese themselves pose a great threat to the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, if this threat is not eliminated......"

"Wait a minute." Stalin seemed to have noticed something wrong, and suddenly interrupted Voroshilov's complaint with a wave of his hand, picked up the carved pipe in his hand, and took a gentle puff: "You just said that Trotsky had taken refuge in both China and Japan, but what did he have to sell to these two imperialist countries?" As he spoke, he pointed with his pipe to the People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs, who was standing in the corner and sighing: "Comrade Chicherin, tell me what the Japanese could get from the war to aid Trotsky." ”

"Far East. Chicherin pondered for a moment and replied: "It should be the Far East, and Trotsky must have given the Far East to Japanese imperialism!" ”

"What about China? What can China get? Stalin asked rhetorically.

"It should be the Far East, too, right?" Chicherin saw that Stalin was trying to drive a wedge between China and Japan, and that the current war in the Far East was fought by Stalin's Soviet Union on one side, and Trotsky, China, and Japan on the other.

If there is any further unhappiness between China and Japan, their struggle will surely reach the point that Trotsky and even Stalin can fight the other two by co-opting one side.

"Comrade Molotov, I remember that two days ago you mentioned to me that a representative of the Workers' Party of Korea came to Moscow and wanted to join the GC International, right? Where are they now? ”

Stalin ignored Chicherin and turned to Molotov.

"Yes, there are two of them." Molotov furrowed his eyebrows and hesitated: "They're gone now...... Solovesky. "Solovesky!? Already arrested? Stalin was stunned for a moment, turned his head and glanced at Menzhinsky, who was doing his work with quick hands and feet: "What's the matter?" ”

Menzhinsky smiled awkwardly: "Comrade Stalin, we only started the investigation after you rejected their request, and it was soon discovered that these two people were actually spies of the Chinese people!" There is a connection with the Kuomintang Military Intelligence Bureau, and it has been ...... all these years"

"Let it go, restore your reputation." Stalin waved his hand impatiently, put an end to Menzhinsky's nonsense, and said to Molotov: "Go and tell these two people that the GC International cannot accept their membership for the time being, because their place of activity is in China. In accordance with the GC International's one-country-one-party principle, they should now accept the leadership of the Central G, until they are given a consolidated base in North Korea. However, the GC country will still provide them with assistance through China and G."

"By the way, I would like to instruct them to help these Korean revolutionaries set up secret camps in the northeastern part of the country bordering Korea, and at the same time provide them with weapons and guidance, and ask them to do everything possible to help the Workers' Party of Korea to establish a base in Korea. In the future, the cause of the liberation of the Korean people will be supported by the comrades of the Central G. ”

Molotov nodded, and he asked again: "Does Comrade Stalin want to ask the comrades of China to send military advisers or armed men to intervene directly?" ”

"You said to let the army of the Chinese G infiltrate North Korea directly." Stalin's demeanor was extremely strange, and he played with the pipe in his hand: "Isn't their army now the border guards of Chinese imperialism?" If they enter Korea, won't it be an attack on Japanese imperialism by Chinese imperialism? In this way, when the two imperialists fight, we, the Soviet Union, will be able to take a breather. ”

Zhou Elai gently put down the telegram copy in his hand and unconsciously tapped his fingers on the table.

His expression was a little strange now, a little gloomy, and a little indignant. But more often than not, it's a god who feels like he's in the future.

During this time, G and the Kuomintang reached an agreement on peaceful reunification, and the two sides could be regarded as "people of one country". The red flag of the Soviets has also been replaced by an ugly blue sky and white sun flag, and the majestic international anthem every morning has also become the national anthem of the "Three People's Doctrines, the Sect of Our Party."

However, the influence of "peaceful reunification" is by no means more than that, during this period of time, a lot of changes have quietly taken place in the jurisdiction of the Central G, the landlords are no longer criticizing, the poor peasants are no longer glorious, they are no longer engaged in the suppression of rebellion and rebellion, no one cares about the intellectuals, and no one cares about the strange words, and all kinds of businessmen have begun to appear in the market, and even the textbooks of primary and secondary school students no longer scold Chiang Kai-shek and Luo Yaoguo as Han Jiān...... Eight million fiat dollars a year! Moreover, the members of the two houses of the six provinces sent out by the Central Government can still get a large amount of allowances, and there are always some so-called capitalists who do not know that these members will give money, and in addition, the property of generals and cadres at all levels in the national control area is also returned, including the houses they once lived in Beiping and Tianjin, and they do not know how to belong to their names! All the cadres who went to Peking and Tianjin for official business were always received by the Kuomintang with a very high standard, and they were always satisfied with what they ate.

In just two months, none of the people below did not say that the Kuomintang was good! Originally, there was no deep hatred between the two parties, only a little friction. As for fighting for the world or something, it is actually a matter at the level of Zhou Elai, "Mao" ZD, Chiang Kai-shek, and Luo Yaoguo, and it has little to do with the comrades below. Moreover, there have been credible rumours in the past two days that the Military Council of the National 'Government' is considering giving officers of the Youth Army and the Border Guards the treatment of reserve officers of the National Revolutionary Army.

That is to say, comrades can directly receive a monthly salary equivalent to 30% of the military salaries of officers on active duty from the Finance Bureau of the Ministry of War of the National Government! And this money is issued to individuals according to the regulations! Organizationally, if it is withheld, it is "deducting military salaries".

Chiluoluo's is corroding people's hearts! Zhou Elai secretly cursed, it turned out that this Luo Yaoguo was very sinister and cunning! Where is his peaceful reunification? It's obviously a peaceful evolution! Now their Kuomintang is the "Central Committee", and it is still the "Central Government" that has overwhelming the military and financial superiority of the "Central Committee...... Qian Duo took sugar-coated shells and bombarded the position of the center G day and night, except for the truly determined comrades, how many people can withstand it?! Moreover, in order to paralyze the Kuomintang reactionaries, the leading comrades of the Central Committee had accepted all kinds of gifts from them a few years earlier, so could they not let the comrades below take them now? Besides, there are many cadres and ............... from the original "National Army" and "Northeast Army" systems, not to mention that it is easy to resist sugar-coated shells for a day or two, and it is too difficult to resist this kind of people for ten or eight years to maintain the nature of GCD members, especially in this kind of peaceful era when there is no war, and they are also facing such a broad enemy who really doesn't want the life of the big guys, but just wants to buy off the comrades.

The door to the office was pushed open with a bang, and "Mao" ZD stood in the door with a grin, he still maintained the original sè of a GCD person, wearing a crumpled military uniform, with a hard and simple look, except for the high-end cigarette between his fingers. Zhou Elai frowned slightly. He raised his hand and said, "Deputy Mao, please take a seat." ”

"Mao" sat down with a golden sword, frowning and looking at the copy newspaper on the table, it seemed to be an instruction issued by GC International. When I picked it up, it turned out to be instructions from the Workers' Party of Korea and the People's Army. GC International handed over this force to the CG to be in charge of management, and also asked the CG to help them establish an anti-Japanese base in Korea.

"Comrade E, what do you think?" "Mao" ZD asked in a deep voice as he put down the document in his hand.

"It is still necessary to strengthen ideological education, and let the majority of cadres and party members strengthen their confidence that GCISM will win and capitalism will fail! We must maintain the spirit of hard struggle, we must insist on self-reliance, and we must not be blinded by the Kuomintang's sugar-coated shells," Zhou Elai replied with a frown.

"E, I mean North Korea, what do you think about North Korea? ..., looking at Zhou Elai, who was immersed in his thoughts, "Mao" ZD shook his head slightly and reminded: "GC International instructed us to take responsibility for leading the cause of the Workers' Party of Korea to liberate the Korean people. We are asked to provide military and financial support to the Workers' Party of Korea. …

"What?" Zhou Elai was stunned when he heard this, and muttered: "Is there such a thing?" When did it happen? How did I not know? "Mao" ZD smiled bitterly and handed over the instruction message from GC International: "My deputy [Lord] Zhou, this telegram is on your desk, haven't you read it?" ”

Zhou Elai also smiled bitterly, reached out and took the newspaper and looked at it hastily: "What kind of 'medicine' did this GC International take wrong?" Actually instructed us to liberate North Korea? This "China" country has not been liberated, when will it be the turn of North Korea? As he spoke, he gasped heavily, vigorously "crumpled" the copied newspaper into a ball, and threw it into the corner: "Runzhi, this matter has nothing to do with us, that Jin Jiu is simply being supported by the Kuomintang." And Wang Zhongyi is all the way goods sè! We don't support it, and presumably the Kuomintang will support it. ”

"Mao" Zd smiled deeply, and said lightly: "Deputy Zhou, have you forgotten who caused the assassination incident outside Sakurada in the first place?" That was the trigger for the Second Russo-Japanese War! It was also this assassination that allowed Luo Yaoguo to win the honor of defeating the Soviet Union, and also allowed the Kuomintang to get rid of the joint oppression of Japan and the Soviet Union and get a respite! I didn't expect that this matter was actually Luo Yaoguo playing tricks, this guy's mind is calm! Zhou Elai snorted coldly: "Isn't it, the sugar-coated shells of the Kuomintang in the past two months have been smashed in bursts!" Many of the following comrades who are not determined have been mihuo by them!

What's wrong with this? Our confrontation with the Kuomintang was not a day or two, but a decade or eight years! They won't have to fight then......"

"Mao" zd smiled indifferently and waved his hand: "If the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if people are observed, there will be no fugitives." Come, there are some things that can't be taken too seriously. Some of our comrades are not afraid of the rain of bullets, but when they encounter this kind of material life, they will inevitably be shaken. As he spoke, he shook his head again: "However, it is normal for them to have this kind of thinking, and our revolutionary cause also needs this kind of ability, but ideologically he is not a comrade of a real Marxist!"

We are not trying to prevent them from receiving reasonable and legal material treatment from the Kuomintang...... Instead, we must create conditions for building up our own territory and create good working and living conditions for our comrades! After all, the confrontation in the future may last for 10 or even 20 years! We can't make those comrades suffer and suffer for the rest of their lives, right? ”

After being persuaded by "Mao" 2D, Zhou Elai nodded slowly: "Runzhi, what you said makes sense, in the final analysis, it is necessary to speed up economic construction, so that the superiority of socialism can be fully reflected, so that the team can be stable." However, his eyebrows were a little tighter at this time. In terms of economic construction, the Kuomintang was already one step ahead, and they occupied the richest territory in China, but the land left to China and G was poor and remote.

"E, I am afraid that it is impossible to catch up with economic construction alone, and their economic foundation is far from being comparable to ours. However, we are not without a little opportunity, because the Kuomintang reactionaries do not want to develop the economy steadily, but want to become fat in one bite! Want to quickly accumulate wealth by plundering. So, we still have a chance, as long as they suffer setbacks in foreign wars, like Tsarist Russia in the world war, and their economy collapses, don't we have a chance? ”

Zhou Elai quietly looked at "Mao" ZD and shook his head a little suspiciously: "Isn't the target of their aggression the Soviet Union?" However, the current civil war in the Soviet Union is getting bigger and bigger, and the national strength is naturally constantly being consumed, while the heavy industry of the Kuomintang is developing at a high speed, and by the time the Kuomintang really wants to start, their strength may have far surpassed that of the Soviet Union, right? It looks like we're going to have to take advantage of the situation..............."

"Didn't Stalin now come up with a way to deal with the Trotskyists?" "Mao" ZD pointed to the telegram in the corner and sneered: "Stalin wanted Jin Jiu to be the fuse of the war for a while, but this time he wanted to ignite the conflict between China and Japan. Trotsky was supported by the Kuomintang and the Japanese Benth, and if there was another conflict between the Kuomintang and the Japanese Benth, I am afraid that there would be no time to take care of the Trotskyists, without whose support, Stalin would have won the war! In the future, it will naturally be able to lose both sides with the Kuomintang. "But the card of Jin Jiu was played by Luo Yaoguo himself." Zhou Elai shook his head slightly.

"He was worried about Stalin's compromise with Japan." "Mao" said quietly: "Luo Yaoguo has exhausted all the calculations, and he has taken all kinds of possibilities into account, but sometimes he thinks too much. He was worried that Stalin would cede peace with Japan from the Far East, and even let Japan help the Soviet Union fight, so he wanted Jin Jiu to go out and hang the signboard of Moscow...... However, Stalin gave him a plan, and he asked Jin Jiu to hang up our signboard to cause "chaos" for the "Japan", so that the "Japan" and the national "government" were in a state of hostility. ”

"Is it possible? He and the Kuomintang are not fools......"

"Mao" zd smiled slightly: "But the people of Japan and China don't know that in fact, their upper echelons have colluded together."

China and Japan are now both claimed to be constitutional states. Besides, we are now border guards under the leadership of the national "government". (To be continued!)
