Chapter 310: Two Sides of a Coin
However, despite his love for these two small and practical radio stations, Abanashenk still did not spit on Yang Zhen's request. No matter how Yang Zhen asked, he just didn't nod his head at their request to purchase American-made fighters. It's just that although Abanaschchenk's refusal was simple, it vaguely always made Yang Zhen feel that this matter was not hopeless.
Yang Zhen, who returned to the conference room, knocked on the table with some irritability, frowned and said, "Comrade Abanashenk, I know that you have a way to help us deal with this batch of fighters." All I have to ask now is, what exactly are you asking for? I hope that the Soviet comrades will not let me have the feeling that those synthetic penicillin technologies are sold too cheaply. β
"Comrade Abanashenk, we have always admired your strategic vision, and for us, who are now de facto allies, I hope that there will be no more secrecy between the two sides, and that if there is anything to be said directly. Let's put forward your terms. β
After saying this, Yang Zhen suddenly felt that he was impatient from the cunning gaze that flashed in Abanashenk's eyes, and almost all the bottom lines were put together. They have almost no chips in their hands now, and once they want to hold themselves hostage with demands that they can't accept, they don't even have the power to backhand.
Thinking of this, Yang Zhen couldn't help but scold these old foxes in his heart while biting off his tongue that was too fast. , I will definitely have a past answer to myself that I should have said, but I just don't express my position for a long time.
Abanashenk looked at Yang Zhen with a look of remorse on his face, but instead of smiling, he pondered for a while and said: "Comrade Yang Zhen, although the Americans said that they could not sell the P-40 fighters you wanted, they said that they could provide a batch of P-39 fighters according to the required quantity, and even add a hundred of them, and give an additional batch of spare parts for free. Moscow also provided you with this loan in the amount of up to 13 million dollars. β
"But there's no such thing as a free lunch. Moscow means that it is possible to provide a loan at your request to import this batch of fighters in our name. However, you must hand over to us all the intelligence networks that have been established within the Japanese army, and we will provide us with the information you need. In addition, because this batch of equipment is not a product of our country, it cannot be provided in accordance with the previous interest-free model. β
"We have to charge a portion of the interest in accordance with international practice. But considering your ability to repay, we can set the interest rate on this loan at six percent. Although it cannot be regarded as interest-free, this interest rate is considered low in the international community as a whole. β
Regarding General Abanashenk's request, Yang Zhen refused without thinking: "We can accept the loan request." But the intelligence network is handed over to you, and this is impossible. Intelligence work is the lifeblood of our army's war against the Japanese army. Submit it to you, and we will be completely deaf and blind. If we ask your intelligence network in Japan to pass it on to us, why don't you do it? At this time, it is safer to hold the knife handle in your own hands. β
"Comrade Abanashenk, even if you can't get a plane, it is impossible for our intelligence network to hand it over to you. We will not accept this request under any circumstances. If Jiangbei is really unwilling to provide help in this regard, we can only find another way. β
"But there is one thing, I can tell Comrade SΓΉ that I have only brought half of the information on the synthetic penicillin. It is only the requirements of the process and equipment, as for the formulation of the raw materials and the extraction method, it is not in it. Since the Soviet comrades are so insincere, I'm sorry that we will not pass on a word about the remaining half of the information. β
"Comrade Abanashenk, my bottom line is clear. We can accept the terms of the loan, and we can also establish intelligence sharing with you with Japan, but the intelligence network will be transferred to you, and that will not be possible under any circumstances. Comrade Abanashenk, you are the commander of the Far Eastern Military District, and you should be clear about this reason. β
Yang Zhen's words were like a thunderbolt, blowing up the previous harmonious atmosphere. Hearing this, Abanashenk stood up suddenly: "Comrade Yang Zhen, you have violated the agreement we reached before. When you do this, you have to consider whether the consequences are something you can afford to bear. β
"If you violate the agreement, as a sanction. We can cut off your air routes at any time, and we can not hand over any of the planes and combat vehicles that are still stranded in Jiangbei for training. We can stop supplying your raw materials at any time. We can also freeze all the military equipment that we promised to transfer before, but which has not yet been transferred. β
Regarding Abanashenk's threat, Yang Zhen shook his shoulders and said indifferently: "Comrade General, don't forget that we won the battle without tanks and planes before. When we didn't get a single bullet before, we didn't defeat it either. So Comrade General, this threat of yours is useless against a self-made man. β
"We are not afraid of any threat, and we will not bow our heads under any threat. Comrade General, if there is a breach of contract, it is also you who are ahead. We have passed on to you all the information that is vital to your survival, but you have been slow to take a stand. Even if we do, we have to open our mouths and say the price that we simply can't afford. β
"Comrade Abanashenk, you are taking advantage of the fire to rob. What is the difference between this approach of yours and those greedy imperialists? Do you still talk about internationalism? That's how Comrade Stalin taught you how to fulfill your international obligations? Is the union of the proletarians of the whole world a joke made by the Soviet Party in order to coax the proletarians of other countries? β
Yang Zhen buttoned up one high hat after another, and quoted the classics to oppress people with the slogans that the Soviets shouted all day long. It also brought Stalin and the proletarians of the whole world together. Except for a few people who are extremely lacking in heart, the people on this earth understand that sentence is nothing more than a slogan put forward by the Soviets to fool the *** people in other countries to work for them.
As for Comrade Stalin, fools know whether this request has anything to do with him, and it is even impossible to figure out that this demand was not made by the General Staff of the Soviet Army, but was simply an order from Stalin. For the loving and father-like leader of the Soviet people, Yang Zhen has long been famous in later generations for his extremely selfish and selfish character.
It's just that Yang Zhen said this, even if everyone knew that he intended to scare people, they had nothing to do with him. General Abanashenk can't slap himself in the face, let alone give him eighteen guts, he won't dare to involve Comrade Stalin. You know, just like the joke in the Soviet Union later, he still has his family.
Abanashenk was dumbfounded by Yang Zhenzuo's internationalist spirit and Comrade Stalin's words, and his face turned pale, but he could not find any reason to defend it.
Looking at the angry Abanashenk, Yang Zhen smiled slightly in his heart, he suddenly understood why the Soviet Union was in a hurry to obtain the intelligence network that had just been established at hand, in fact, except for this anti-intrigue plan, it had not played much role at all. I'm afraid that another aspect of my serial plan this time has succeeded.
The best Soviet spy in Japan, the famous red spy master, has probably been arrested by the Japanese National Police Agency, and his intelligence network established on the Japanese mainland should have been destroyed by Japan. In addition, after the defection of Lysyukov, the Comintern's spy network in Manchuria was cracked by the Kwantung Army, and the current Soviet Union has almost lost a source of intelligence against Japan.
Although this was rather unorthodox, Yang Zhen had to ensure that all the Japanese intelligence sources needed by the Soviets were in his own hands. Taking the Soviet Union's intelligence work against Japan under his own control was also a helpless and even somewhat indiscriminate self-protection method adopted by Yang Zhen when he was forced to go to Liangshan.
His own blood vessels and lifelines were in the hands of the Soviets, and the Soviets, especially Stalin's character, which turned his face faster than a book, he knew better. Once the Soviets decided that they were no longer useful and kicked themselves out, then all their material channels would be cut off.
Once the lifeline is completely cut off, there will be no source of raw materials, especially high-quality military steel, gasoline, and military raw materials, and their weapons and equipment will become a pile of scrap iron. Could it be that he really wants to go back to the deep mountains and old forests to fight guerrillas.
In order to ensure that after the outbreak of the Soviet-German war, the lines of communication with the outside world would not be cut off, Yang Zhen, who had a very good idea of the development of the world in the future, could only adopt this tactic to cut off all the sources of the Soviet Union's intelligence work against Japan and control all the sources of intelligence in his own hands. This may be two sides of the same coin, the demon is the demon, and the fairy is the immortal.
Of course, this matter is top secret, even within Yang Zhen, only himself, and the actual operator, Minister of Intelligence Chen Long, and the highest-ranking guy Yang Zhen has installed in the Kwantung Army so far. Even Li Yanping and Guo Bingxun, who was most trusted by him, didn't know.
And it was not until more than 60 years later, when several of the main parties were no longer alive, and even after the collapse of the Soviet Union, which was still a behemoth, that several historians who specialized in the study of Yang Zhen found his secret words from the vast original archives of the Jidong Military Region, the predecessor of the former Northeast Military Region, which had just been unsealed.
In order to decipher these written materials, which are like heavenly books, they are written in cipherland. When the General Staff of the People's Liberation Army at that time refused to provide information on how to decipher the code, these more honest historians used the most advanced computers in China and the most advanced deciphering software, and it took them a full decade to figure out the ins and outs of this matter, and it was published on the Internet as soon as possible.
Although the historians were immediately arrested by the state for endangering national security, the top-secret matter published on the Internet caused a huge sensation in China and even internationally. It has become an after-dinner topic for more than ten years.
You know, at that time, not only allies, but even both sides kept calling each other brotherly parties, and even affectionately called them big brother, but there were such turbulent waves under the water, suspicion and even mutual plotting, and there was no interest there?
If it weren't for the fact that these historians had brought this matter to light, who would have thought that the exposure of the most successful spy network established by the Soviet Union in Japan during World War II would come from the eyes of outsiders, and even a large part of the Chinese party held the same thought, holding the hand of this ally?
I'm afraid that Sorge, who is absolutely blind to death, doesn't know that his exposure is not his own reason, but someone consciously calculates him. Although the announcement of this incident caused great damage to the subsequent Sino-Russian relations, the information released together with it also made the people of later generations understand that some things are not as simple as they imagined.
Although the Soviet Union played a major role in the Northeast War of Resistance, its assistance to the Anti-Japanese Federation of even the same ancestor was not gratuitous. Every kopeck, every bullet, even every liter of gasoline, was exchanged for something. The hardships of the struggle are beyond the imagination of the common people of later generations.
Despite the government's repeated emphasis on fiction, both international research institutions and ordinary people are clearly more willing to believe that these things are true. And Nomura Iwa, the only reincarnation of all the people in the world and the former three-time president of Japan, defected to China with his family as soon as possible, regardless of his nearly 90 years of age, which seems to confirm the authenticity of this matter from another aspect.
Not only did the common people believe it, but the directors of later generations who had a keen sense of smell filmed a TV series with this theme, and it became a hit TV series for a long time, and even rarely reached the point of being empty of thousands of people. And with Yang Zhen as the first male protagonist, there are countless crossings, overheads, and even romance novels.
In fact, long before this article was published, for later generations of research institutions in various countries or ordinary people, Yang Zhen, the founding general, was a mystery that people could not see. His precise strategic vision and unconventional scientific knowledge in the Anti-Japanese War and World War II have been the subject of many people's research for many years.
It is not surprising that all kinds of rumors are flying all over the world when the main people in the world are no longer there, and some cadres from the Anti-Japanese Federation of Resistance against Japan have remained silent about this matter, and the state has always refused to disclose the details of this mysterious figure who has served as commander of the Tibet and Xinjiang Military Regions, vice minister of national defense, and director of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and who has refused to be appointed minister of defense and chief of general staff three times, but has taken the initiative to assume the heavy burden of managing national defense science and technology.
In those years, the famous army, which eventually grew to more than 2 million troops, accounted for half of the total number of troops in the whole army, and its weaponry and combat effectiveness were the highest in the whole army, and the Northeast Field Army, which fought from the small Xing'an Mountains in the northeast to Hainan Island, and liberated most of China from under the iron hooves of the Japanese invaders, like their commanders, also contains countless mysteries.
You must know that the sentence of the arrogant commander-in-chief of the Chinese theater in China in the United States is that one division of the Anti-United Nations is not a factor of equipment and support, and it is on top of three American divisions. Even compared with a division of the Japanese army in its heyday, it is not inferior to the comments, but it is not a simple talk.
However, Yang Zhen at this time did not have the scenery of later generations. Although I was extremely annoyed because I exposed my hole cards in advance, I was slightly relieved that I had figured out the bottom line of Jiangbei. But in this matter, Yang Zhen has already made up his mind, no matter how much the Soviet Union talks about the lotus, his bottom line must not back down. Yang Zhen didn't want to be the cat who taught the tiger how to climb trees.
In view of the characteristics of the Japanese nation and the strict household registration management system, Yang Zhen knew that this spy network had been destroyed, and it would probably be quite difficult for the Soviet Union to establish a new one. This is also why the Soviet side made this peache-picking move. Giving them the intelligence network in their hands is really thanks to their imagination.
