122. China Eastern Railway
Yang Guihua handed the telegram to Bai Shujie: "Report to the captain: The young marshal of Xiao Liuzi issued a general order to work with Changmaozi on the Middle Eastern Railway!" ”
"What?" Bai Shujie was shocked: "Is there really a fight?" Oh, I'm such a big bastard that he forgot such an important thing! ”
It turned out that Bai Shujie suddenly remembered that according to the trend of history, in order to show his ability, this young marshal made frequent moves at the beginning of his power, as if he wanted to throw off his arms and do a great job. In his imagination, since the new official has to burn three fires when he takes office, he will have to do a few major things that will go down in history! His first move was to expand his territory!
The object of the "sacrifice flag" selected by this ambitious young marshal is the Soviet Federation, known as the polar bear! This knife is cut on the "Eastern Railway"!
In April 1929, the young marshal of Xiaoliuzi and the young marshal of Xiaoliuzi summoned Zhang Zuoxiang, Zhang Jinghui, Lu Ronghuan and others to discuss the issue of the Eastern Railway. The first "stone for directions" was thrown at the Soviet Federation: a request to increase the proportion of Chinese employees on the jointly managed China Eastern Railway.
Because of the outbreak of the global economic crisis, the fragile regime of the Red Soviet Union was dealt a huge blow. In order to save the national economy, Stalin decided to further lower the purchase price of grain, which caused the peasants to be reluctant to sell their grain, causing a grain panic in the cities of the country.
For this reason, Stalin believed that the present enemy of the Red Soviet Union had been transformed into the kulak class, and therefore imposed a collective farm system, depriving the kulaks of their land and family wealth. Because of the haste of the incident, and the people below were ultra-leftists, as a result, many poor peasants and middle peasants were also severely punished.
Because this policy is unpopular, it has been opposed by the vast majority of people in China. Later, there was a huge peasant armed **, and it was out of control. Although Stalin took iron-blooded measures and Zuihou suppressed the peasant uprising, the remaining contradictions were not resolved.
The formation of collective farms, which did not increase grain production, led to the growing domestic contradictions of the Red Soviet Union. Therefore, the Red Soviet Union was not willing to start a foreign war in this situation.
Therefore, as soon as the negotiations between the two sides began, Soviet Russia retreated step by step, allowing the Chinese to serve as the directors of six divisions, including commerce, aircraft maintenance, vehicle affairs, general affairs, accounting, and receipts. The little six-son young marshal who tasted the sweetness did not accept it when he saw it, but had to make inches. Soon after, the Harbin Meteorological Observation Station of the Eastern Railway was withdrawn, and the Soviet Union and Russia also acquiesced.
Although Soviet Russia did not want to go to war, it was by no means a sheep to be slaughtered. Obviously, he wanted to capture the old man, mainly to win international sympathy, and then strike back, but he was considered by the young marshal of the sixth son to be weak in Soviet Russia. At this point, in his mind, he no longer took the possible fierce counterattack of Soviet Russia to heart.
Looking at his children and nephews who are arrogant and empty-eyed, Zhang Zuoxiang, who is old and serious, is an "auxiliary commander", so he naturally can't sit idly by. So he earnestly advised: "It is a good thing to take back the Middle East Road, but this is not a trivial matter. In my opinion, using the whole country to deal with Soviet Russia may not be able to win, can it only rely on the Northeast Army to fight Soviet Russia? I am afraid that I will not be able to recover the Middle East Road, but will cause trouble, and I must also prevent the Japanese from taking the opportunity to make trouble. ”
It's a pity that the advice is contrary to the ear and has no effect. By the end of May, things were out of control.
For the Soviet army's attack on the front line of Manchuria, although Bai Shujie has the heart to contribute, on the one hand, his own strength is too weak, and on the other hand, he is indeed a little beyond the reach of the whip. Crouching Tiger Villa is a thousand kilometers away from Manchuria in a straight line, and you can't go there, so you can only do it in a hurry.
Since it can't be managed, it is necessary to prevent other accidents from happening. For this reason, Bai Shujie found Sheng Zhiguo and asked those who arranged to enter the arsenal what the current situation was.
Sheng Zhiguo hurriedly said: "Report to the detachment leader, those people have successfully completed their apprenticeships and have now been converted into regular workers. At present, he works in a gun factory, a gunpowder factory, and a bullet factory. Because they are preparing to go to war with Longhair, they are now working overtime. ”
"You make them make friends with the workers and instill some little Japanese threats. In addition, it is necessary to find out the situation of various warehouses and prepare for timely response in the future. Bai Shujie said with a gloomy face: "As soon as the young marshal came up, he first fought with the Russians, which is very unwise. ”
"My father has just died, little Japan is eyeing the tiger, and the undercurrent in the army is turbulent. If he doesn't smooth people out first, he will act in a hurry and commit a taboo! Typical ignorance of the other and not knowing oneself, every battle must be lost! Once the Northeast Army is damaged and the morale of the army is weakened, the little devils will definitely take advantage of the weakness! So, your line, now you have to hurry up and gather all kinds of intelligence. ”
Tan Mingliang came in and reported: "Detachment leader, there are a hundred and dozens of people looking for you outside the mountain, saying that they are your old acquaintances!" ”
"Take me out and see!" Bai Shujie came out of the headquarters, rode a war horse with Tan Mingliang and walked out of the villa to the village office. Before he could get off the horse, he was surrounded by a large crowd.
"I didn't expect you to be the captain of the detachment!" An older girl stood up and said, "Detachment leader, we meet again!" Do you still know me? ”
Bai Shujie tilted his head and looked at it for a long time, but he didn't remember who this person was. Zuihou could only shake his head apologetically: "I'm very sorry! Miss, I really can't remember where I've seen you! ”
"Humph! You've been living in my house for a few days, and I was going to go with you, and you said I was too young, so let me study! The eldest girl pouted and said, "It seems that you are really a noble person who forgets things!" ”
"Oh - I remember! You're the shopkeeper's daughter! Bai Shujie said self-deprecatingly: "I said that there is no strange feeling in the look, it turns out to be you!" How's it going, you're done reading the book? Is Father okay? ”
Then, without waiting for her answer, he said to the more than 100 people: "Don't stand outside, let's sit inside!" Mingliang, prepare boiling water! ”
Bai Shujie took the lead in entering the village office and sat down in the first place. Then he asked the girl, "Excuse me, what's your name?" ”
"My name is Liu Wanruo! I couldn't read anymore, so I ran out to find you! Liu Wanruo said with a smile: "I've been looking for you for more than half a year, but I can't find you." Later, Uncle Wang came to drink with us, and then secretly told me that he had met you in this area! Hee-hee-hee! ”
Bai Shujie looked at everyone: "Are these your friends?" Are you traveling? I'm in the countryside here, so there's nothing to entertain! ”
"It's not that I'm looking for you, it's my teacher who wants you!" Liu Wanruo stretched out her finger and pointed at a young man who looked to be in his twenties and said, "This is our nature teacher, Teacher Cai!" ”
"Oh? Looking for me? I'm a horseman, a reckless man in the mountains and grasses, what are you looking for me? Bai Shujie heard that strangers were looking for him, and he was very dissatisfied with Old Man Wang's rash disclosure of his whereabouts!
"You're the captain of Bai Shujie's detachment, right?" "Teacher Cai" stood up and hugged his fists and said: "I have heard the name early, like thunder!" ”
"Don't dare to be!" Bai Shujie waved his hand indifferently and said, "I don't know what Your Excellency is doing here?" ”
"These students of mine have heard about your department's achievements and admired them in their hearts, so they came to study and learn!" "Teacher Cai" smiled and said, "I don't think it's a bad thing to let the students go out for a walk, so I just brought them over to have a look." ”
Bai Shujie smiled: "Hehe." I see! Now everyone has seen it? Our villagers are busy with the farms, and the militia are also participating in the labor. That's where we are here, and you're all gone. I still have to patrol the fields, I don't have time to accompany you, please! ”
"Teacher Cai" disagreed with Bai Shujie's eviction order, and then asked: "Detachment leader, the land here is all yours, right?" ”
"The land of China is all Chinese!" Bai Shujie stood up and walked out, while saying coldly: "I am Chinese, and the land here naturally has my share." ”
"Teacher Yan" chased after the butt and asked, "Then the detachment leader, what do you think of the current situation in China?" ”
Bai Shujie took the reins handed over by Tan Mingliang, and said before getting on the horse: "China is in a mess, the party cannot become a party, and the country cannot become a country. The battle of Yuegui and the battle of Jiang Feng, *** behind the scenes**. It's a pity that the foreign powers are eyeing each other, and the selfless heart does not die! All patriots have relatives in their hearts. In front of everyone's eyes, do you still need to ask? ”
"Teacher Yan" stared at Bai Shujie and asked, "Excuse me, what do you think about Zhang Xueliang provoking trouble for no reason, maliciously attacking the Soviet Union, and disrupting the order in the Northeast?" ”
As soon as Bai Shujie heard the tone of that "Teacher Cai", he knew what kind of person he was! Nine times out of ten, it was sent by the South Manchurian branch of the Communist Party of China, and it was from Wang Ming's faction!
For such a person, he is not willing to provoke, at least not yet. Now Zhang Xueliang is constantly exerting pressure on the Soviet and Russian sides, and the Soviet Russian side is ready to send troops on a large scale.
Because it was worried that the government of the Republic of China would go all out to contend with itself, Soviet Russia issued instructions to the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China through the Comintern, asking them to organize more general strikes and big ** to support the revolution in Soviet Russia! The leaders of the Chinese Communist Party, including the later great man Zhou Gong, even openly shouted the slogan of "armed defense of the Soviet Union"!
For people from later generations, when Soviet Russia sent troops to attack our territory and slaughter our soldiers and civilians, our countrymen actually shouted the slogan "armed defense of Soviet Russia", which is simply a great rebellion, and can be treated as traitorous remarks! It was precisely because of this psychological trick that when he heard "Teacher Cai" accuse Zhang Xueliang, he was immediately indignant!
"That's nonsense! What does it mean to provoke trouble without a cause? What is a malicious attack on Soviet Russia? A faction of traitor remarks! Bai Shujie was about to get on the horse, but as soon as he heard this, he was zhanzhu. also stared at this "Teacher Yan" and said: "Polar bears occupy my territory and dominate my railway; Bombing my town and killing my people is a crime that cannot be punished! ”
"If it weren't for the distance and the whip could not reach me, I would have waved my army away and killed the Russian devil and shed a river of blood! There are dwarfs in the south and polar bears in the north. They are all my mortal enemies, and I don't share them with me! If I have the slightest chance, I will kill them all! ”
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
