Although he was touched by Yang Zhen's generosity, Vice Chairman Zhou did not take it seriously. In his opinion, Yang Zhen's idea of making money in the United States was somewhat unreasonable and unrealistic, even with the information.
It can really be sold at the price Yang Zhen wants, but this money is not easy to use. [.Com text]
Vice Chairman Zhou, who did not want to get entangled in this topic, pondered for a moment and said: "It's just that you decide how to deal with the current situation. This matter cannot be delayed indefinitely. You have proposed to return to the country, but they have not sent you."
Plane, from the looks of it, they have already made up their mind that if you don’t agree, they will drag you here!”
"As a military commander, if you stay here for a long time, you will be very irresponsible to your troops. Once the domestic war situation changes, I'm afraid there will be problems if you don't go back. Even if we can't reach an agreement, we must find a way to go back as soon as possible, and
You must also be careful in certain aspects, the central government absolutely does not want to let what happened before happen again!"
Vice Chairman Zhou didn't say anything about those aspects that need to be careful, but Yang Zhen knew it, but Yang Zhen didn't care much. He thought that at least for now, they would not attack him, and it would be more beneficial to them if he lived.
No, besides, with their own abilities, as long as they are more careful, even if they want to get rid of themselves, they probably won't be that capable.
In later generations, in addition to physical and technical tactics, what matters is the mind. After all, in special operations, as a mid-level commander, the brain is often more important than the physical strength. Fighting alone, even if the leader is a small
Negligence will result in the destruction of the entire army.
In response to Vice Chairman Zhou's question, Yang Zhen had only one word "drag". Looking at Vice Chairman Zhou's slightly frowned brow, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "Vice Chairman Zhou, don't worry, as long as the Kwantung Army does not give up its march northward for one day,
As long as they maintain a heavy military group in the Northeast, they will never do anything to me, and I also have the strength to prevent them from attacking without any scruples!"
Looking at Yang Zhen's confident face, Vice Chairman Zhou, who was very familiar with the current world situation, was still worried about Yang Zhen's safety, but he believed that Yang Zhen should be able to handle these things well.
It's just that Yang Zhen, who was quite confident at this time, didn't know that he was really wandering around the gate of hell. He still underestimated the other party's determination to take the initiative in this matter.
Yang Zhen's estimate was correct. The Soviet Union, whose painstakingly managed intelligence network was almost completely destroyed, was indeed more anxious than him. It was obvious that General Abanashank, who had made no progress in the past few days, had lost his patience. He was not one of those
He is a diplomat who is arrogant and his job is to talk nonsense. He is a soldier and prefers to go straight.
After Kovalev sent Vice Chairman Zhou to Yang Zhen's station and returned, he was found in his office by General Abanashank, who had received the latest instructions from Moscow. He was an old intelligence agent until his death. General Abanashank found him
Kovalev himself had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
Looking at Kovalev who seemed to have guessed what he meant, General Abanashank went straight to the point: "Comrade Kovalev, I want to ask you a question. I hope you can answer me truthfully. Remember,
This is me asking you a question on behalf of Moscow!”
"If this Yang Zhen disappears completely, is there anyone in their army who can replace him? This matter cannot be delayed indefinitely. This time our intelligence organizations in Japan and Manchuria have suffered a devastating blow.
Moscow is very anxious. If we can't get a satisfactory answer to Moscow, then we can only replace him with someone who is obedient and can be used by us!"
"You have worked for them for a short time, but you are already the person who knows them best among us. I hope you can give me an answer today. Please remember that this matter is related to the eastern border of the Soviet Union.
Safety, so you have to answer me truthfully, to get rid of this Yang Zhen, can we find a replacement among them, like a figure like Sheng Shicai from Xinjiang!"
Abanashenk's words clearly told Kovalev that Moscow has lost patience and is preparing to change horses, kill Yang Zhen, and support an obedient person from among them who can obey Moscow's command. The most important thing is
Replace them with someone who is a certain distance away from the center in the northwest.
Kovalev, who did not think that killing Yang Zhen now was a good decision, was silent for a moment and then said: "Comrade Abanaschenko, if Moscow wants to ask for my opinion, I can only say that this decision is terrible, at least for now.
There is no one who can replace him in the Northern Manchuria region!"
"The leader of their Third Route Army is more suitable for political work, and military work is not his specialty. As for the First Route Army, I don't know much about it, but one thing I know very well is that he cannot replace Yang's work. Comrade Commander, they are all here now.
Only by relying on Yang's help can we survive the harsh situation!"
"Although this person has a strong national concept, his military talent is what we urgently need at the moment. Although this so-called Jidong Military Region army is based on a part of the Anti-Alliance Second Route Army, most of the people are
He brought it out single-handedly. He is like Comrade Stalin to the Soviet Red Army in the past. He has a very high prestige in this army. It would be difficult for another person to command it!"
"And even if we kill him, Northern Shaanxi will not agree to their own selection of a replacement. The first of their three disciplines and eight points of attention is to follow the command in all actions. Without the approval of their central government, no one can
Might take over this position!"
"Although I don't know much about the leaders of the Chinese Party, from what we know so far, they are very sensitive to factions within the party. If we get rid of this person, they will definitely replace him with someone else.
"Comrade Commander, rather than switching to a stranger and having to get familiar with each other all over again, I would rather continue to deal with this guy. Although he is difficult to deal with, it is much better than someone we are not familiar with at all!"
"How to put it, Comrade Commander, I think we must change our perspective to consider the problem. Manchuria is different from Xinjiang, and the current situation is also different from that of the past. In the past, the representatives of the Chinese Party in the Comintern in Moscow valued the interests of the Soviet Union, but
Now that they have made direct contact with northern Shaanxi, it is no longer possible for us to control them as we did before!"
"Moreover, Manchuria is the main area where we confront the Japanese army. It is now controlled by the Japanese army. It is completely different from the situation in Xinjiang. It is vast and sparsely populated, and most of them are ethnic minorities. It lacks an effective force of Shengshicai. Without our
The support has long been defeated by the rebels!”
"But this place is managed by them as a monolith. Not only does it have a very powerful and well-equipped army, but they also have strict discipline. They are not warlords like Sheng Shicai who first preserve their own existence, but an army.
A team with strict discipline, clear goals and a well-organized team!”
"Comrade Commander, if I were given a choice, I would choose to cooperate with Comrade Yang Zhen. Even if I make some concessions, I must maintain cooperation with him, because we need a stable Eastern Front in future wars, at least for now.
Others cannot replace him in this aspect, especially in terms of military talent, and if the Soviet Union needs a stable Eastern Front in future wars, it cannot do without this person!"
"But Commander, we don't have much hope for their Vice Chairman of the Military Commission to come this time. This person is very determined and cannot be influenced by others. Even their superiors are the same. He will not be willing to become
A puppet on a string, this person has his own opinions and will never waver for external reasons once he makes up his mind!"
After saying this, Kovalev carefully observed the gloomy and uncertain expression of General Abana Shenk, and closed his eyes knowingly. What he said did not mean that he was on Yang Zhen's side, but as an intelligence officer, he analyzed
It is his job to solve the problem and come to the conclusion that is most beneficial to him, but as a sober-minded man who has some personal friendship with Yang Zhen, he does not want anything to happen to Yang Zhen, either publicly or privately.
After listening to Kovalev's analysis, General Abanashenk did not answer him, but fell into deep thought. After the sensible Kovalev exited, he hesitated briefly and picked up his own
The red confidential phone on his desk is connected to the military district switchboard: "Get me to Moscow, Kremlin, switchboard number 1!"
What does the switchboard No. 1 of the Moscow Kremlin mean? Even in the Far East Military Region, only a few people know it, and no one knows it. General Abana Shenk, who always likes a concise and lively military style, has played a full role this time.
What was the content of the phone call that lasted nearly an hour?
After General Abanashenk put down the phone, he thought about it for a while and called in Kovalev, who had just left. "Comrade Kovalev, Moscow has agreed with them, but we still have to wait for him to communicate with them," he said.
After the meeting with Comrade Vice Chairman, don’t rush to play our last trump card!”
Having said this, General Abanashenk paused and said: "Comrade Kovalev, your father is my old comrade-in-arms. I have always treated you as my nephew. I think it is necessary for me to do something with you."
A necessary reminder, you should pay attention to your words and deeds, and don’t give the impression that you are too close to them!”
"Although the results of this winter operation have slowed down the purge operations within the army, you must also be careful not to give people any clues. Although we brought down that guy this time, we went to the Chief of General Staff Bosny
General Meretskov, the newly appointed commander of the Leningrad Military District, General Meretskov!"
"I had contact with him when he was the deputy commander of the Belarusian Military District. This person is a general, but not a commander. When he is responsible for fighting in a certain direction, he is a trustworthy person, but as the general staff commanding the entire army
Compared with General Shaposhnikov, although he served as deputy chief of general staff before becoming commander of the Volga Military District, his ability to command the overall situation is still far behind!"
"I don't understand why General Shaposhnikov, such an outstanding commander-in-chief, should be dismissed from his post and go to the People's Commissariat of Defense to become a deputy people's commissar of defense in name only. General Shaposhnikov's dismissal from his post will affect our future work.
I am afraid that there will be some constraints, and at least the support of the General Staff will be weakened.
"The only good news for us now is that Marshal Timoshenko is still in his position, and Comrade Stalin attaches great importance to the situation in the Far East Military Region. From now on, our work will be reported directly to Marshal Timoshenko without going through the General Staff.
, Otherwise, I don’t know what kind of trouble will happen!”
When he heard that General Shaposhnikov had been dismissed, Kovalev was surprised. He thought that this respected veteran would be like the countless veterans who mysteriously disappeared during the Great Purge. When he heard that the general had only been transferred to deputy
The People's Commissar of National Defense breathed a sigh of relief: "Comrade Commander, thank you for your reminder, please rest assured that I will pay attention to it!"
"But Comrade Commander, I must remind you that we have not found anything during this period of surveillance on him. Although the military intelligence department instigated one of the two communications staff officers he brought with him, they obtained all his domestic contacts.
Passwords, including the password for direct contact with the Central Committee of the Chinese Party, but so far, all we have obtained is some irrelevant information!"
"I think he has either discovered our actions or guessed our intentions, so he is very cautious and never communicates his ideas with the country, or even reports to their central government. He communicates through the radio every day
It’s just trivial things that are of no use to our negotiations with him!”
"If my guess is correct, then this person is very difficult to deal with and very shrewd. Comrade Commander, I suggest that we go straight. If we go in circles, it will be difficult. If we don't do it, we will be deceived by this guy again.
When you go in, this person may look unremarkable on the outside, but he is actually very scheming!"
General Abanaschenko did not answer Kovalev's words, but said: "Comrade Kovalev, you are the representative appointed by Moscow to him. Do you think they can really do the intelligence work against Japan?"
It’s important for us to share it, you know that!”
In response to Abanashenk's still somewhat uneasy rhetorical question, Kovalev said without hesitation: "Comrade Commander, I think he will, because this man is very smart and he understands what is best for him now.
Now he cannot do without our support for them. Once we cut off all assistance, he will soon be in a situation where he will run out of ammunition and food. He understands this very clearly!"
"This place is different from their mainland. Here they have no logistical support, no friendly forces to cooperate, and they don't even have a safe and reliable transportation line. Without us, they have nothing. Moreover, this person has a very firm attitude towards Japan and will never
Will compromise!"
"As long as Japan currently has a hostile attitude towards the Soviet Union, we will be allies. Providing us with strategic intelligence is a matter that is in their own interests. We have no reason to doubt this. Although our cooperation with them cannot be with
Compared with Shengshicai, it is undoubtedly our best choice now!"
"Comrade Commander, I know that when you were the commander of the Central Asian Military Region, you had contact with that Shengshicai for a period of time, but you should understand that that person is a complete speculator. He took refuge with us in order to keep his life.
status, rather than sincerely serving the Soviet Union.
"But this person is different. Although he cooperates with us, he is also forced by reality, but their starting point is different. One is an out-and-out warlord, and the other is to fight the Japanese army. This person is determined to resist Japan.
, can completely serve as a reassuring ally.
"As for Sheng Shicai, who is both a man and a woman, in order to maintain his own power, no matter who supports him, he will always join him. I don't think his character will be more reassuring than that of the current Emperor of Manchuria, Comrade Commander.
,Compared with two people, I would rather deal with this person!"
"If he is a cunning wolf in his prime, then this man is an eagle. Yes, it gives me the feeling that he is like an eagle king overlooking everything, shrewd yet brave, cunning but also cunning.
If you are dishonest, you can treat him as an ally, but not as a friend."
