Chelyabinsk.

There are not many citizens in the once prosperous city, and all you can see in the whole city are the White Guard soldiers with confused and numb faces. They smoked Chinese-made Phoenix cigarettes, drank low-quality Chinese sorghum wine, ate luncheon meat, which was called a Chinese specialty, and even ordered their clothes from a factory on China's coast.

Don't think it's all free, except for a small part of the free support, most of it has to be purchased with money.

No one wants to spend this unjustly money, but now the roads from the outside in the direction of the Urals are completely cut off. Originally, there was a supply line between Persia and the Caspian Sea, but with the signing of the Treaty of Riga, Europe and the United States knew that they could no longer contain Moscow from the inside to achieve national reunification, so this supply line has been basically abolished. But the damned Chinese have also learned well, and both the government and the military no longer interfere in such purchases, but send a few businessmen from nowhere to take charge of the transaction.

These black-hearted businessmen-capitalists!

Even the most hated White Guard soldiers of the poor party used the words of Moscow, and the greedy Chinese merchants showed their knack for scraping the floor, exchanging cheap cotton clothes, smelly luncheon meat, and rotten potatoes for large quantities of what they had looted from all over the country. Machines, equipment, diamonds, gold, silver, paintings, silver, even bronze, tin, etc., they all needed as long as they could, like beggars picking up rags, and in the end they simply emptied all the rails that had been reserved for maintenance along the railroad line. If it weren't for machismo. It is estimated that a string of Russian women has been seen being sold to China in exchange for necessities.

Xu Shuzheng was bored on the platform, and now his most important job every day was to lead the officers and guards like misers to inspect the loot that was about to be shipped back to China. Due to the delay in Kolchak's attack on Ufa Kazan last year, he simply retreated to winter after learning that Moscow and Poland had started negotiations, which made him helpless when he wanted to fight a war to prove himself. Fortunately, this winter was not idle, as large as a machine stolen from Kazan, as small as a silver coin, all of which needed to be sent home. After the Great Sweep three years ago. It was looted for two more years in a row, and the entire east of the Urals was as clean as a dog licked.

If there is anything important east of the Urals, I am afraid that it is the great railway that runs through Europe and Asia at your feet.

This railway is definitely going to be demolished. It has also been included in the plan to return to the east, but this matter must be cooperated by Kolchak, otherwise he will definitely not be able to rely on the more than 2,000 people on his hands. Fortunately. The situation is no longer the same, and with Russia and Poland at peace, Moscow, determined to unify the country as soon as possible, will certainly launch a new offensive in the near future. Relying on these White Guards, who have long been numb and tired of the surroundings, it is completely impossible to stop the million Red Army, so hum!

Xu Shuzheng sneered a few times, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw the adjutant running in a hurry: "Report, the information just came from the headquarters, let's return to the east immediately!" ”

"Let's go!"

After putting the horsewhip on his hand, Xu Shuzheng walked towards Kolchak's headquarters without stopping. The Russian officers at the headquarters all know this liaison officer of the Chinese Defense Forces, and they also know that the railway heavy artillery regiment in his hands is the only reliable and effective deterrent force at present. If it weren't for the existence of this Chinese Railway Heavy Artillery Regiment, perhaps the defense line would have been breached several times, so it was easy to knock directly on the door of the military conference room.

"General Xu."

Facing Xu Shuzheng, who suddenly broke in, Kolchak was a little surprised. The Russian general, hailed by the West as the most patriotic, has lost his former composure and his cheeks are thin. The eye sockets are sunken inward, the hair is messy, and the official uniform is crumpled like a ball of sour pickles.

"General." Xu Shuzheng saluted, swept over Dutov and other senior White Guard generals who were in a meeting, and said very seriously: "I'm very sorry to interrupt your council, there are some things that you need to decide!" ”

Wait for the translator to repeat. Kolchak, Dutov and others were secretly surprised, and they didn't know what could make the Chinese general so serious. He thought about it and looked around again, stretched out his hand and said, "Is there anything General Xu needs my help with?" ”

His hands were still white, and his nails were neatly trimmed, but they could not hide the weakening posture of the White Guards. Xu Shuzheng originally wanted to talk to him alone, but since everyone was relieved of the officers around him, he had nothing to hide, so he glanced at the adjutant and handed over the sorted information.

said: "General Kolchak, this is the information we just got. Moscow has already decided that it will launch a full-scale offensive on the Crimean peninsula, the Ural Mountains and Kazakhstan in half a month, trying to end the war by the end of the year! The enemy is coming here from the southwest and southeast, and we judge that they will attack your army on the Crimean peninsula in a few days at the earliest. It is true that the Isthmus of Perekop is difficult and impregnable, but the number of enemies is too large to hold it for a long time, so you must order a retreat as soon as possible! ”

"Retreat?"

"Nope. The Perekop Isthmus is Verdun in the Caucasus and cannot be breached! ”

"Yes, as long as they are dragged on the isthmus for a few months, we will be able to storm Ufa and Tsaritsyn and encircle them."

After the translator finished repeating Xu Shuzheng's words, the Russian officials present shouted one after another. Most people think that the Perekop Isthmus on the Crimean Peninsula is the most difficult natural barrier in the world to be breached, so they feel that they can use the geographical advantage to allow Denikin's troops to drag the enemy and launch a counteroffensive after learning from Verdun and other enemy forces after being consumed. These ridiculous remarks made Xu Shuzheng secretly sneer, and he didn't look at what the situation of his troops was, if it wasn't for the support of the commander-in-chief, it would have been broken by the poor party from the inside! When a soldier has no intention of fighting, it is simply a big mistake to think about counterattacking!

Fortunately, Kolchak finally had some insight and understood that it was impossible for the isthmus to hold off the Moscow government, which had gotten rid of the troubles of the Western Front, for a long time, but he was not willing to retreat like this and look at the information in his hands. After a while, he asked: "General Xu, is this information reliable?" ”

"If you believe it, then this intelligence is effective." Xu Shuzheng very skillfully avoided the topic of intelligence, and raised his voice after glancing at everyone: "Moscow's total strength has reached a terrifying 5 million, and they have already stockpiled enough supplies and ammunition by collecting and showcasing grain from the rich peasants. If you continue to hold here, you will be attacked by at least 800,000 enemy troops! I believe that the current atmosphere in the military is clearer than me, an outsider. The likelihood of holding the Ural Mountains is low. If there is no immediate retreat, the enemy can attack Omsk or even Tomsk and Barnaul by a detour from Western Kazakhstan as long as he opens a gap. Cut off your back and kill hundreds of thousands of freedom fighters! ”

Kolchak and other officers felt that these words were exaggerated, not to mention how difficult it was to attack Tomsk by a detour of more than 1,000 kilometers from Kazakhstan, and Barnaul, which was temporarily under the control of the Wehrmacht, would not be so easy to capture. But they are also very worried about the situation in the troops. The idea of the poor party is spreading rapidly, and a large number of soldiers who have no intention of fighting have become agitated and radicalized, and if this situation is allowed to develop, a large number of defections may occur when the enemy army attacks. The only way is to withdraw from the Urals front, to distance themselves from the poor parties, and to gradually disintegrate the unstable elements within the army.

But how long does this distance really take? Omsk or Tomsk? Or simply retreat across the Yenisei River into Chinese territory, sheltered by the Wehrmacht? The last thought means that these people have become vassals of China completely! Who is willing to give up their rights and go into exile in another country?

Xu Shuzheng, who is known as Little Zhuge , didn't know what these people thought, strode to the map, and slowly moved his finger to Krasnoyarsk next to the Yenisei River: "Krasnoyarsk is the territorial dividing line between our country and your country. It is also one of the most important strategic passages of the Trans-Siberian Railway! I'm sure you're well aware of the importance here. My suggestion is to start a retreat at once, to dismantle and destroy the railroad to prevent it from being used by the enemy to carry out a rapid pursuit, not to make any more stops in Omsk and other places, and to cross the Yenisei River directly. There is such a natural dividing line. Our army will be able to protect you to go to the northern territory of your country to recuperate, and the enemy will not want to threaten your safety for three or five years after losing the railway, and during this time it is completely possible to solve internal problems first, and then wait for the opportunity to counterattack and return to St. Petersburg.

Returning to St. Petersburg is easier said than done! In fact, even Kolchak has given up on this thought, and has been prepared for failure since sending the millions of refugees who followed him to China. But in order to protect the hundreds of thousands of horses under his command, retreat is inevitable. It's just that he looked at Xu Shuzheng. Looking at the Siberian artery connecting Eurasia on the map, it is really a little reluctant. You must know that in order to build this railway, the whole of Russia was mobilized, and it took nearly ten years to barely open it, and it also spent a lot of money to hire a large number of British and French engineering experts to solve the problems of permafrost and severe cold and heat, it can be said that this railway condensed the efforts of the entire Slavic nation!

Now he wants to destroy it with his own hands, and he is really reluctant. And he also knew that Xu Shuzheng's suggestion was not good at all, that is, he was preparing to sabotage the railway to prevent it from being used by Moscow to threaten the security of the East. Because as long as the railroad is destroyed, Russia's domestic situation, which has been greatly damaged after the civil war, may not be able to return to the East for ten years.

Seeing that he was still hesitating, Xu Shuzheng snorted coldly in his heart: "General, my suggestion is here, and it is up to you to decide whether to retreat or not." But I would like to remind you that our country has just survived the silver crisis, and the losses are very serious! There are also many natural disasters in the country, and it is no longer possible to cross the Yenisei River to support your army, I hope you will think about those soldiers who follow you, temporary defeat is not important, it is terrible to lose people's hearts! ”

A few words shocked Kolchak, Dutov and others, and their eyes gradually moved slowly eastward along the railway.

When Xu Shuzheng tried to convince Kolchak to sabotage, most of the country also ushered in spring ploughing.

No matter how industry and commerce develop, spring ploughing is one of the most important events in China. In the past, during the Manchu Qing Dynasty, officials had to go into battle in person at this time, not to mention the current Republic of China. So almost everyone from the president down to the local officials went out to meet the needs of agriculture, and the army stopped most of its training to free up fuel for more and more tractors.

Hubei is the birthplace of the National Defense Forces and the birthplace of the revolutionary flame. Huguangdi, which was the first to benefit from the policy of supporting the people, is one of the fastest-growing regions in China. Not only has it established a huge industrial system with Hanyang Group and Hubei Iron and Steel Plant as the core, but it is also not willing to lag behind in agriculture. The battlefield of the former fighting. Welcoming back the leaders who fought here at the beginning, Yang Qiu and many officials returned to Xiaogan, standing on the ridge and pointing at several walk-behind tractors in the distance.

The walk-behind diesel tractor is Chapter 574 Yanchimion oil field is said to be able to expand to an annual output of 50,000 tons, but that is for the northwest. Karamay has not yet been positioned, and the largest North Sea (Irkutsk) oil field is very likely to produce 5 million tons per year, but it will not be put into production in five years. As for the Sakhalin oil field, China and Japan are still bargaining, Saudi Arabia's world's largest oil field is still very small in production, and there has been no breakthrough in oil tanker manufacturing technology, and the issue of expanding production is basically not considered until the Sanduao oil refinery is built.

At present, the country's oil consumption has reached 1.5 million tons, of which one-third is kerosene for civilian lighting, and the rest is gasoline, diesel and oil reserves needed by the navy. According to the eight-year growth rate, by 1930 the country's annual oil consumption should be at least 10 million tons, so while speeding up the construction of oil fields and refineries, it is also time to look for new oil fields.

You can't watch the country's development be choked by oil, right? So Borneo can't be avoided!

"I will ask the Ministry of Commerce to appropriately increase the amount of imported diesel." Yang Qiu didn't want to disturb everyone's good mood at this time, so he climbed on the tractor and said with a smile: "Zhong Quan, even if you let it go, don't cover the patent, this is a big thing for the benefit of the country and the people." Sending people to teach several other factories is urgently needed by immigrants from the northwest and northeast, but 200 is still a bit expensive for ordinary people. I don't think it's as good as this, Jue Dun, your Ministry of Agriculture has tried to join hands with the agricultural cooperatives, find bank loans to purchase a batch, and use the method of cooperative leasing to first carry out tractor farming pilot projects throughout the country, so that more people can benefit, and those landlords and gentry will be driven, they all have money in their hands, as long as they buy first, slowly the whole country will follow suit. ”

Tang Jueton nodded. With the introduction of the Chengcheng Act across the country, agricultural cooperatives have been established in all provinces and counties, and now the peasant cooperatives have become the largest peasant organizations in the country. What other use can it be than mutual help and love? Until this moment, Yang Qiu proposed to take the lead of the agricultural cooperatives and the Ministry of Agriculture, and the bank would provide guaranteed loans for tractor leasing, which suddenly opened his mind!

Isn't it a shortcut to the take-off of agriculture by using agricultural cooperatives to promote advanced planting methods and gradually change the traditional slash-and-burn farming model? Thinking of this, Tang Juedun also secretly admired Yang Qiu, and even felt that he was afraid that he had thought of such a day when he formed the peasant association.

"All in the car! We also enjoyed enjoying the taste of a new tractor. Yang Qiu smiled and beckoned everyone to get in the car, ready to experience the feeling of being bumped up and down as a child, but when the tractor started driving, he remembered a question: "By the way, is there a name?" ”

Name? That's right, it seems that I forgot to give the tractor a resounding name while patronizing research and having fun.

"Let's call it a good harvest!" Tang Jue thought about it and blurted out.

"A good harvest for the whole country. Well, it's a good harvest! ”…… (Site. Your support is my biggest motivation. ).
