For the Soviets at this time, one side could only be regarded as harassment and robbery, and the other side had reached the point of national subjugation and genocide. The Soviet leader was still aware of the greater threat on that side. Of course, small actions in private, like today
Refusing the passage of anti-Union supplies will still happen.
But the current means of retaliation by the Soviets are actually this at most. If they want to send troops to retaliate, at least for the time being, they don’t have the capital. Otherwise, given the character of the Soviet people, would things be so peaceful there? I’m afraid they won’t even tell you the truth and just send troops to retaliate.
.
The Soviets, who have always believed that the truth is within the range of cannons, don't know what it means to persuade people with virtue. They emphasize that whoever has the biggest fist is the most reasonable. If you pluck the hair from his butt, he will not reason with you.
. The fist will hit you directly and give you an impressive lesson.
Whenever you see him in the future, you will take the initiative to hide away. Of course, when they peel off a layer of your skin, they will also take away two of your ribs to let you know that they are never good.
Yes. And these two ribs are the land on which you live.
They have been like this since their name was Tsarist Russia. Although they have changed their name to the Soviet Union now, the things inside will never change. Although Li Yanping has the experience of staying in the Soviet Union, but after so many years of dealing with each other,
After fighting, especially in the past year or two, he no longer had any good impression of this holy place in his heart.
The Soviets used their actual actions to shatter Li Yanping's dream bit by bit. The sense of intimacy that Big Brother had at the time had long since disappeared. Now for Li Yanping, for the northern country that once dreamed
The big brother and the powerful neighbor now are more wary.
The Soviets are currently locked in a war with Germany and have no time to worry about the Eastern Front. The Eastern Front has long lost its previous sharpness. According to the report from the Soviet observation post on the Chinese side of Heilongjiang, the military ranks of the Soviet Far East Military Region are all
It was sent to the west, and there were almost no military columns coming from the east.
The military trains heading west were filled with tanks, artillery, ammunition, fighter jets, troops, and even food. The very few trains heading east, except for some machinery and equipment, were evacuated to the Far East.
The old, weak, women and children, and the Soviets who had too much time to take care of themselves no longer had much energy to deal with the Anti-Japanese Alliance. For Li Yanping, the person in charge of the work with the Soviet Union, this meant that the pressure on him was reduced a lot.
I am afraid that the young partner in front of him saw this and firmly opposed any punishment for Wang Guangyu. Except that Wang Guangyu was his number one favorite, he would definitely not agree to a heavy punishment.
Foreign. At the moment, the Soviets cannot distract themselves, which is also the reason for him to do so.
Although Li Yanping did not agree with Wang Guangyu's heavy punishment, he also did not agree with Yang Zhen's punishment that was not even an understatement. But Yang Zhen had already made up his mind. As a political commissar, he had to help the commander smooth this situation.
.It’s not his job to make a fuss, so of course he won’t care too much.
For Li Yanping, the thought of dealing with the difficult Soviets is a bit of a headache. The Soviets have no time to go back and look around, but they still have the necessary skills. Li Yanping is not afraid of big moves. What he is most worried about is the Soviet Union.
Those small moves that people make in private are like cutting off American supplies from entering the Northeast.
What Li Yanping is even more worried about is that the Soviets may not only be doing this for Outer Mongolia, but may also include other demands, even demands that the Anti-Japanese Alliance cannot accept at all. What the Soviets do is no longer a problem.
Once or twice. Taking the opportunity to extort benefits from others is what Li Yanping is most worried about.
Yang Zhen obviously didn't notice these thoughts of Li Yanping. Or if he did, he didn't care too much. He didn't stop talking because of some of Li Yanping's thoughts: "If it weren't for the matter of Outer Mongolia, you would first
Let’s hear what medicines those people sell in their gourds.”
"No matter what thoughts and intentions they have, don't agree to them first. Now we are nothing more than a word slip to them. I guess that apart from Wang Guangyu's affairs in Outer Mongolia, they are eager to find me, and I am afraid that they will be transported to Vladivostok with the Americans.
Those materials are quite related.”
"Maybe it has something to do with the current war situation and some supplies they need. The Soviets have always been greedy, especially now that they are in crisis. As long as it is good, there is nothing they don't want. Even if they ask for it
When it comes to people, it’s the same as wanting to take advantage of them.”
"I don't want to see them for the time being, especially Kovalev. As for the British guy, don't arrange for him to see me first after he comes back. I'm not in a hurry to see him before Pearson returns to China. Let Pearson talk to them first
After that, it would be better for us to talk again. As well as all the contents of our conversation with the Americans today, as well as our ideas and response methods, you form a material. Make two copies and submit them to the Central Committee and the Northeast Bureau respectively."
"For the things discussed today, especially certain things, we have to make our intentions clear to the central government. I am worried that the United States and Britain will not be able to open a gap from me and will join forces with Chongqing to put pressure on the central government. Especially at this time, it is very easy to
It is easy to create a basis for public opinion in Chongqing."
"Everything obeys the unified military orders and everything obeys the government. How many years has Chongqing been asking for a government, a political party, and a leader? Whether or not we obey their orders has always been a weapon for them to put pressure on us in terms of public opinion. We cannot
Let them take advantage of this matter. If the United States and Britain cannot do our job, they will definitely find other places to start."
"Although Chongqing will never allow us to enter their back garden and put the lifeline in our hands. But they are in urgent need of US aid now. Once the United States and Britain really use US aid to block them, there is still a high possibility that they will bow their heads.
. Especially since Chongqing’s emphasis on Myanmar is far higher than ours. And weakening our strength may not be a bad thing in some aspects.”
"Rabbits will bite when they are in a hurry, not to mention the Nationalist Government, which still holds millions of troops in its hands? The reason why I advocate for them hard is that they are also persisting in the war of resistance. With good equipment, the Chinese nation will have less
We have lost some vitality. We really don’t want to go to the quagmire in Southeast Asia. We have told the central government our thoughts and opinions in advance, and the central government is also mentally prepared.”
Just when Li Yanping was about to say something, Yang Zhen sat back on the sofa, tapped the armrest with his fingers, and changed the subject: "Old Li, the Americans will transfer the aid they give us to the Soviets.
Although we can avoid the Nationalist Government's line, it is not good news for us."
"Chongqing will definitely object to giving us aid. This incident is what I expected, and there is nothing surprising. They represent the whole of China right now, so they naturally think that all foreign aid should go to them. Even a drop of gasoline
, every bullet belongs to them. They can give it to whoever they want to give it to, and they can’t give it to anyone they don’t want to give it to.”
"If the United States hands over all the aid it provides us to the Nationalist Government for unified deployment, I'm afraid we will only be able to get at most a few rifles that are of no use to us under the pressure of the United States, and a small amount of cotton or grain.
There will be nothing but one type of assistance, or nothing at all."
"The Nationalist Government is not a fool. They will not arm us, who are now seemingly distant friends, and will definitely be our opponents in the future. There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and there is no room for others to sleep beside the bed. This is the true idea of the Nationalist Government. Once the U.S. aid comes in force
Once we arrive, the Nationalist Government, which considers itself to be strong and strong, might not be able to take the lead in taking action regardless of the Japanese army's renewed siding."
"No one is a fool. As soon as the Americans join the war, the Japanese will definitely lose the war based on their strong industrial and economic strength. The only difference can only be the length of time or the amount of benefits gained.
That’s all. Given this premise, it’s also what they hope to do before our wings grow hard enough to nip us in the bud.”
"What's more, they are now seriously lacking weapons and equipment. Especially heavy equipment above mortars, they are even more seriously lacking. Their poor military production capacity, even the most basic rifle production cannot meet the needs.
What’s more, artillery and other heavy weapons?”
"Even the Central Army, except for a few ace troops, does not even have a few artillery. When it comes to the miscellaneous troops, they don't even have rifles. Their pitiful amount of equipment production per year,
At most, it can barely be called maintenance. Its equipment production capacity is not as good as ours now."
"The current situation in Chongqing is that the Central Army raised by Big Mom lacks heavy equipment and barely has enough light equipment. The miscellaneous army raised by Little Mom lacks almost everything. The supplements they have received are just that they can barely maintain it and will not collapse.
That’s it. And as stepmothers like us, even the most basic funding has been stopped, and we don’t even think about weapons and equipment.”
"In this situation where they can't even have enough to eat, it's a big joke that the American aid materials can give us, a thorn in their eyes and future opponents. This is very important to China.
The Americans, who have a relatively accurate grasp of the situation, know it very well. But if we cannot obtain more assistance, we will not be able to pose a fatal threat to the Japanese army. This is also clear to the Americans."
"If we cannot pose a fatal threat to the Japanese army, we will not be able to contain too many Japanese troops. This is not in the interest of the United States. If we let go again and let the Japanese army transfer some troops from the Kwantung Army to strengthen the Southern Army, they may not even be able to connect Australia and India."
I can’t even keep it.”
"It doesn't take much. If the Japanese army can ensure supplies, if it deploys three to four more divisions from the Kwantung Army to Southeast Asia or the Pacific battlefield, it will be worse for the United States and Britain. At that time, the British army will protect India.
, it is necessary to mobilize more troops from North Africa or other theaters. As for the Americans, the cost of counterattack will be greater."
"For the United States and Britain, in fact, even if the entire Southeast Asia is lost, they will not care too much. But if Australia and India are lost, I am afraid that these two countries will feel the thorn in their backs and be completely blind. If the Japanese army captures
India, then the Japanese army, which received food support from India, continues to advance westward and merges with the German army that has entered North Africa at this time or may enter the Caucasus of the Soviet Union in the future. This is definitely a complete failure for the United States and Britain."
"At that time, the current world rules dictated by the United States and Britain will be decided by the Germans and Japanese. This is why the Americans are eager to strengthen us. Use us to delay the Japanese offensive as much as possible and weaken the Japanese military investment.
Send troops to Southeast Asia to slow down the Japanese offensive."
"Although we cannot completely cut off the threat of the Japanese army to Southeast Asia, we can reduce the momentum of the Japanese army's attack and form a whole in the Northeastern battlefield and the entire Pacific and Southeast Asian battlefields. While protecting Australia and India as the bottom line, and striving to ensure that Southeast Asia is not lost, it is better to
