Chapter 209: Excitement and Waiting
When receiving the long-awaited telegram, Yang Zhen said that it was fake if he was not excited. When the telegram arrived, Yang Zhen did not fake anyone, and he translated it with a codebook. After the content was translated, looking at the content on the telegram, although Yang Zhen frowned slightly, he didn't care.
If the other party came up and put on a look of trusting himself, Yang Zhen didn't believe it. In Yang Zhen's original plan, Ji Qing could arrive safely in the Jizhong Military Region, which is subordinate to the Jinchaji Military Region, and it would be very good to gain the trust there. But the telegram clearly stated that Yang Zhen was sent by the central government, which made Yang Zhen feel a little uneasy.
After hesitating for a long time, out of steady, Yang Zhen still drafted a telegram himself. If the central government wants to test itself, it also has to test whether the other party is the central government? After all, the shape shì was cruel, and he didn't dare to guarantee that the telegram was really the center. I dare not guarantee whether Ji Qing really arrived in Yan'an.
Once Ji Qing was arrested on the road, could not withstand the severe torture of the Japanese army, and confessed to the mission of this trip, then I am afraid that the Kwantung Army, which has now regarded itself as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh, will not let go of this opportunity. Although the commander-in-chief has repeatedly assured that Ji Qing is not that kind of soft bone, but the shape is cruel, who can guarantee that Ji Qing can withstand the torture that ordinary people can't bear?
The kind of torture used by devils, even if an iron man can't withstand the vicious methods, Yang Zhen has already had a deep understanding from the information of later generations and what happened to Peng Dingjie. In such a major matter, we must be prudent and absolutely not jump to conclusions. Therefore, the necessary temptation is still necessary.
Yang Zhen knew that the central government's secrecy methods had always been known for being extremely rigorous, not to mention the Japanese who had no roots in the northwest. Even the Kuomintang, which had dealt with it for decades and tried every means to cut it down and eradicate it, failed to penetrate the top level of the central government after eight years of exhaustive efforts.
Most of the spies who were lucky enough to enter Yan'an could only live in some inconspicuous departments that had no access to the top at all. Not to mention the high-level, even some departments that are not too confidential are not accessible to them.
Those who have gone through the five anti-encirclement and suppression campaigns and the Long March in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Border Region have developed a pair of fiery eyes under the grim situation, although they do not have the so-called experts and advanced equipment of the West. Under their strict precautions, it is difficult to carry out ordinary spy activities. Even if you get some information occasionally, it's hard to send it out.
Therefore, after pondering for a long time, for the sake of safety, Yang Zhen wrote some things in the telegram that were announced several decades after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Even some of the things in the leader's family life serve as a strategy for him to tempt. If Ji Qing was really arrested and betrayed, and this central reply was really concocted by the Kwantung Army, then it would be impossible for them to answer these things at all.
Moreover, this tentative telegram is also another means of revealing one's identity to the central authorities in disguise. After proving that he was not captured, he defected and acted as a spy of the Japanese army. Because of the leader's family affairs, even if he lived and worked in Yan'an for a period of time, it would be impossible to understand it.
Moreover, when the leader married the later standard-bearer, he had already been transferred to work in the 129th Division, and it was impossible to understand at all. If even the leader's private affairs can be spread all over the world in China at a time when the means of communication are still extremely backward, even a small company commander knows about it.
Then it is impossible for the CCP to survive under the harshness of the form. The leader has already let people serve it in a pot, so can it still develop and grow? Moreover, the Japanese military intelligence department was not so powerful, and could extend its tentacles to the leader under such strict precautions, and when the available resources were less than that of the national government.
Yang Zhen believed that the central authorities would naturally distinguish between the priorities and give himself a relatively satisfactory answer to the confidential matters involved in this telegram. As for those Yang Zhen on the telegram, who were far from having enough access to secrets, why he would be so clear, Yang Zhen would naturally explain it clearly in the future.
Therefore, after careful consideration, the telegram that made the head of the communications department of the Central Military Commission want to laugh but dare not laugh was released. Of course, in order to maintain the dignity of the leader, although the standard-bearer at this time was far from being as publicized as he was later, for the sake of prudence, this telegram was still translated into a cipher by Yang Zhen himself.
After receiving another call from the central government, seeing the content of the telegram, Yang Zhen's heart that had been hanging was really put down. Ji Qing arrived in Yan'an and was personally received by the leader and the commander-in-chief, this thing that was almost impossible to do in Yang Zhen's opinion, actually succeeded, Yang Zhen was a little incredible.
It wasn't until he received Ji Qing's handwritten telegram that Yang Zhen knew what happened. However, when he knew that the deviation in his memory was almost harmless, he was executed by his own people, even if his face had been exercised very thickly, Yang Zhen felt a little guilty.
If it weren't for the good fortune that Li Jingpu was working in the 120th Division, he would have arrived in the Jizhong Military Region with the same 20th Division. was anxious to inquire about the news of the Anti-Japanese Federation, and rushed in time to save Ji Qing from the execution ground, I am afraid that Ji Qing will really be killed by himself. It was this guilt that made Yang Zhen agree without thinking about it after the central government put forward the request to keep Jiqing to work in the Northeast Working Committee of the Central Committee.
Moreover, after the Central Committee proposed to keep Ji Qing to work in the Central Committee, he repeatedly stated to the Central Committee that Ji Qing's performance in the Fifth Army, coupled with Ji Qing's outstanding ability, made Ji Qing extremely highly valued by the leader.
Despite repeated blows from the former deputy to the Comintern, he remained in a position under the protection of the leadership. Several times during the rectification, the leaders personally guaranteed that they were able to pass the test.
even squeezed out the social minister who was known for his rectification of people and who held the power of life and death in the central government during the rectification movement. In this way, Yang Zhen avoided the tragic fate of being in prison for half his life in China and the Soviet Union in history, which Yang Zhen knew. Of course, that's another story.
After receiving the second telegram from the Central Committee, after confirming that Ji Qing had indeed arrived in Yan'an and restoring the direct line of contact between the Anti-Japanese Federation and the Central Committee, which had been isolated in the northeast, Yang Zhen immediately telegraphed the news to the commander-in-chief of the negotiations in Jiangbei.
Yang Zhen forwarded the rest of the decisions in the second reply from the Central Committee to the commander-in-chief, except for special replies on certain matters. He also told the central side that it had begun to communicate with the Soviet side and strive to establish a land communication line that could connect the Soviet side with the Anti-Japanese Union.
It has already decided to contact the Soviet side and prepare to send a group of cadres who have studied and cultivated in the Soviet Union to come to the Anti-Japanese Federation for on-the-spot inspection. It is hoped that he will be able to negotiate with the Soviet side in a two-pronged manner and cooperate with the central government's actions.
After receiving the news that Ji Qing had arrived in Yan'an and that the Second Route Army and the Central Committee had finally resumed radio contact, although he was already quite tired because he had been grinding his teeth with the Soviet side all day and showing the other party the power of the weapons designed by Yang Zhen, the commander-in-chief, who had just rested but was aroused, immediately shed tears of excitement.
The commander-in-chief, who had lost contact with the Central Committee since the Comintern delegation withdrew to the country, asked the Soviet side for assistance in communication on several occasions, but never received a reply. After experiencing countless disappointments, although the land lines of communication have not been restored, the radio contact has finally communicated, how can the commander-in-chief not be excited?
Looking at the love that has always been steady, but it is rare today, even if the husband who is nervous has never had such a gaffe, the commander-in-chief's wife, who knows what her husband is thinking in his heart, can't help but admire Yang Zhen even more while being happy for her husband.
The reason why the commander-in-chief crossed the river several times is naturally clear to his wife, who has been working at the headquarters of the Second Route Army since joining the Anti-Japanese Federation. For her husband to hit the wall again and again, she has been very clear since she got married. It is indeed admirable that the young man can do what his husband has always wanted to do, but has never been able to do, in such a short period of time.
The commander-in-chief, who was picked up from sleep by Yang Zhen's telegram, was still half sleepy at this time. Hurriedly put on his clothes, he had to call the guards to prepare to go out to find the representative of the Soviet side, the major general whose Chinese name is Wang Xinlin.
But I didn't want to be stopped by my wife when I was about to go out. Seeing her husband's impatient look, Mrs. smiled and pointed to the wall clock on the wall and said, "You don't want to see what time it is." Where are you looking for someone at this time? ”
Seeing that Madame pointed to the time displayed on the clock at twelve o'clock in the night, the commander-in-chief patted his head with some annoyance and smiled: "I'm so happy that I even forgot the time." Okay, let's rest and continue grinding with those Soviets tomorrow. ”
said that he continued to rest, but the commander-in-chief who was slightly excited was still asleep? Tossing and turning on the bed, and not closing his eyes until dawn. And the lady who knows his mind well, although she is very sleepy because she is pregnant, she also rests by herself, but quietly snuggles up to her husband's side, and accompanies him all night until dawn.
Finally, when the sky dawned, the commander-in-chief, who was anxious to get an answer from the Soviet side, rushed to the Soviet Far Eastern Military District again. However, he did not expect to receive a reply that the commander of the Far Eastern Military District, General Abanashenk, the political commissar and first secretary of the Party Committee of the Far Eastern Territory, Ivanov, and the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Wang Xinlin, had gone to Moscow to report to the Central Committee of the CPSU.
The receptionist, who wore the rank of lieutenant general, also made a point of emphasizing that the content of their report was mainly about the Soviet side's assistance to the United Nations. After all, there are some things that the Far Eastern Military District can not decide, especially those materials that the commander-in-chief has named and wanted, many of which have to be transferred from the interior of the Soviet Union. Therefore, the Soviet side hoped that the commander-in-chief would be able to wait patiently for Moscow's reply.
Hearing this reply from the Far Eastern Military District, the commander-in-chief couldn't help but feel half cold. Even if he returned to Moscow to report to work, he did not have to go with him as the three top leaders of the Soviet Far East. At this moment, the war in the Normenhan region is in full swing, and the three people in charge of the Far Eastern Military District and the Far Eastern Territory, which are the most important defense of the Soviet Union against Japan today, were recalled to Moscow together.
Reminds me of the disappearance of the former commander of the Far Eastern Military District after he was recalled to Moscow. Knowing that the commander-in-chief of the Soviet Union is now in the climax of the Soviet Union, he is very worried about whether the old things will be repeated?
As soon as he crossed the river this time, the commander-in-chief felt that the treatment he received this time was different from the past, not to mention that the standard of the person who came forward from the other party was high, and the treatment he gave himself was simply heaven and earth compared with the past.
The two top leaders of the Far Eastern Military District, General Abanashenk, commander of the Soviet Far Eastern Military District, and Ivanov, political commissar, not only personally appeared, but also arranged for Major General Wang Xinlin, head of the District Affairs Department of the Soviet Far East Military District, to negotiate with the commander-in-chief and send a colonel to take care of the commander-in-chief's daily life.
An exception was made to return the weapons that had been seized by Soviet border guards when the guard platoon had crossed the river. Although only the fast and slow machines and Type 44 rifles were returned, and those submachine guns were privately seized by the Soviet border guards and not returned, there was a small regret, but a car and a truck were allocated to the commander-in-chief to use in the Soviet Union as compensation.
The reasons for the drastic change in the attitude of the Soviet side were well known to the commander-in-chief. It's definitely not just because of the Normenheim incident, this one thing. In the final analysis, the Second Route Army suffered several heavy setbacks to the Japanese army's encirclement and suppression, not only killed a large number of Japanese puppet troops, but also pinned down the two elite divisions of the Japanese army in the Xiajiang area, not to mention the inability to move westward, and even laid a base area.
As Yang Zhen said, no matter what kind of negotiation needs strength as a foundation. If you don't have the strength, even if you go to the door to ask for food, no one will take care of you. Because if you give something, the other party will not get any benefit.
This attitude of the Soviet side gave the commander-in-chief hope for the success of the negotiations, but now that the object of the negotiations has been recalled to Moscow, the rest of the people are unable to be the masters, which makes the commander-in-chief's heart suddenly empty. I'm worried about what will happen. Although the treatment is not treated, the commander-in-chief does not care. However, the commander-in-chief is still very worried about whether the negotiations can achieve the desired results.
After receiving the discussion telegram from the commander-in-chief, for the commander-in-chief's worries, later generations only replied to Yang Zhen, who had already experienced the Abanashenk general, with a short message: "The sky falls, wait with peace of mind." Take advantage of this rare opportunity to accompany your sister-in-law. ”
After receiving Yang Zhen's telegram, the Soviet side did not change its attitude. Although the supreme person in charge was not there, a major general from the political department was sent to solve the problem for the commander-in-chief. Even if the commander-in-chief was a little anxious, he could only wait for Moscow's reply in Boli with peace of mind.
