Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 840 Kurdish Gift

The Kurdish Democratic Party is a right-wing organization of the Kurdish National Forces. It is an extreme terrorist organization established by the militant faction of the Kurdish National Movement after the Iraqi Dynasty banned the party in the early 20th century.Their headquarters is in Istanbul, Turkey. Their political goal is to separate the Kurdish areas from Iraq. Their leader, Masood Barzani, has close ties to the Soviet Union and receives subsidies from the Soviet Union.However, because the French army retreated from Iran to Iraq and reached a joint defense agreement with the Republic, Stalin had to withdraw support for Iraq and the Kurdish Democratic Party, making this political entity suddenly fall into an unprecedented state of isolation.

Of course, at this time the person who sent charcoal in the snow came.The charcoal sender is Feng Yuxiang, commander-in-chief of the Imperial Western Expeditionary Army.After Barzani sent a sincere greeting telegram to the Chinese general in the name of the Kurdish Democratic Party, he went all the way from Istanbul to Mosul. This is why Feng Yuxiang confidently said that Erbil would not The reason for self-defeating.

As soon as we met, Barzani felt the cold eyes of this world military man inadvertently. He would look at himself with that strange look, but he instinctively felt that this was not a good omen.But for all the Kurds in Iraq, visiting Feng Yuxiang is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to revitalize the nation, so he curled up his bent back even lower, and put on a servile look.

However, he didn't know that this action of his had strengthened Feng Yuxiang's resentment.I saw Feng Yuxiang knocking a folder on the desktop heavily, and then said unhurriedly: "Mr. Barzani, please allow me to call you by this name for the time being." After a pause, he then asked knowingly: "I don't know why sir came to see me?"

"This!" Barzani took off his hat, wiped his shiny forehead, and said, "General Feng, I heard that you are now in charge of commanding the Western Expeditionary Army?"

"Yes!" Feng Yuxiang nodded slightly, but he still didn't look up at the other party. "General Jiang Baili was ill and returned to China to recuperate, so I acted as his deputy. What's wrong? Do you want to be this commander?"

"No! No! No!" At this moment, Barzani could not hear that the other party was deliberately sarcastic. He waved his hands and said, "Your Excellency, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean that." After a pause, he continued: "The main purpose of my visit this time is to hope that your Excellency can enter the central region as soon as possible, occupy Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, overthrow the reactionary Iraq, and rescue us from the brutal rule of Shia Islamists." .”

"Well, I see, I agreed to your request. However, it will take time. We are not ready at the moment. You know, many troops are still in the border area. It will take time for them to mobilize. If there is nothing , I think we'll stop here." As he spoke, Feng Yuxiang waved his hand impatiently, as if to see off the guests.

"Your Excellency, if your Excellency is willing, our Kurdish Democratic Party will fully cooperate with your army's actions." Seeing that the other party seemed not interested in his proposal, Barzani was a little anxious, so he had to be the first to state his conditions.

"Okay!" Feng Yuxiang still didn't look up, he took a folder, and quickly signed his name on it, saying: "I don't know how much assistance you Kurds can provide? It's the Imperial Dragon Coin, US dollars , pounds, Iraqi dinars, food, or volunteers?"

"We will hand over Erbil to ensure that the imperial army can take over this fourth largest city in Iraq completely without bloodshed!"

"Oh?" Hearing this, Feng Yuxiang sneered secretly, and said calmly on the surface, "How do I know if your promise is true?"

"The Iraqi Fourth Army stationed in the Erbil area, although their commander is a Shiite terrorist, most of the rest are Kurds, so I am sure to persuade them to revolt, to the Long Army Hand over your weapons." Seeing that Feng Yuxiang's attitude seemed to have changed, Barzani immediately struck while the iron was hot and put out his bargaining chips.

"Hehe, it's interesting." Hearing this, Feng Yuxiang finally raised his head, stared at the other party for a long time, and then said: "Since you have such great sincerity, it means that the conditions behind it must be very high. Tell me, you What exactly is the request?"

Barzani felt a bit of ecstasy in his heart, and quickly said: "I hope Your Excellency will allow us to establish an independent country, Kurdistan."

"No!" Before the other party finished speaking, Feng Yuxiang waved his hands heavily, pouring a basin of cold water on the other party's head.

"Ah? No? Why?" Barzani thought that the other party would readily agree, but he didn't expect the other party to flatly refuse. If he hadn't been sitting face to face, he really thought he had heard it wrong just now, which really made him feel unbelievable.

"There is no reason." Feng Yuxiang's answer was still so cold that Barzani, a political veteran, felt a little bit cold. After a slight pause, Feng Yuxiang said: "Because you did not control the northern part of Iraq." Therefore, I disagree, even if you can persuade the Fourth Army to revolt, I still have to seriously consider it." After finishing speaking, Feng Yuxiang waved his hand heavily.

Seeing that the situation took a turn for the worse, Barzani was really anxious. He didn't know what he had done wrong to be treated like this by the other party. The most important thing for him now was to understand why Feng Yuxiang had such an attitude.To be honest, he did a detailed investigation of Feng Yuxiang before coming here.He found that this young general likes to use various tactics, and the most powerful thing is to win over all kinds of people.For example, he won over Prince Mahmud in Afghanistan, and Jinnah, the leader of the Pakistani freedom movement in India. The heads of several Asian countries have more or less received his support, and once they establish a cooperative relationship with this person, they will Not just a puppet in the general sense, but a dictator who can really give orders.

The main reason why Barzani thought of meeting Feng Yuxiang was because of secret hints from agents of the Imperial Security Bureau.Generally speaking, no matter which country's intelligence officials try their best to collect opponents of each country and give them funding, and the more powerful the country, the more such funds, and the funding organizations are also varied, both powerful and powerful. The opposition or armed groups, there are also cults or just one person pulling up the banner.As long as it is considered useful, funds will be issued.Therefore, as the most powerful intelligence agency in the world, the Imperial Security Bureau has also adopted this approach.

After following the advice of the Chinese intelligence personnel, Barzani immediately approached the deputy commander of the Fourth Iraqi Army and persuaded him to take control of Erbil by means of a mutiny. Tail, hoping to get the appreciation of his boss, hoping to get a promise from the other party.However, now it seems that Feng Yuxiang is not prepared to give him not only a piece of meat, but even a bone, so he feels a little disappointed.

On the other side, Feng Yuxiang also began to examine the old guy in front of him.When Feng Yuxiang was ordered to invade Iraq, he had already heard about Barzani. Although he was more interested in this Kurdish leader at first, after reading his information, he found that it was not the same thing at all. .

Barzani's background is not good, and many of his bad deeds are recorded in the files, such as fighting, killing, killing and so on.In addition, he is not good at agitation, nor does he have any combat experience or any brave performance. He is best at tactics.What's more, he is not very loyal to the Kurdish Democratic Party.This organization originally had two leaders, Barzani and Ovira. Just in March last year, the number one leader of this organization, Ovira, was suddenly assassinated inexplicably. According to the investigation, it was this Barzani who assassinated him.Although in politics, killing one's companions or even brothers who disagree with one's political views is commonplace.However, this kind of situation usually occurs when the power is in hand, such as the case when Hitler, the **** madman, killed Rohm and Strasser.But the Kurdish Democratic Party didn't even have a place the size of a palm, so it started internal strife.Although this seems normal to others, it is a taboo for those who play politics.People who can even do this kind of thing generally have relatively low loyalty.Therefore, Feng Yuxiang planned to completely exclude Barzani from the Kurdish Democratic Party from the very beginning. Of course, he can't say that now. On the contrary, he now wants to use the other side.

Seeing the other party's desperate expression, Feng Yuxiang suddenly burst out laughing.Barzani was taken aback by the other party's laughter.Feng Yuxiang stopped laughing, stood up slowly and left the desk, handed the other party a cigarette, squinted and said: "Mr. Barzani, please forgive my words just now, because I deliberately tested you just now, you know I must be careful in the current situation, because you are an Iraqi after all. But just now I read the information sent by the Imperial Security Bureau, which proves that you are loyal to the Chinese Empire."

Only then did Barzani heave a sigh of relief, and kept nodding his head: "Yes, yes, yes, I will be loyal to the empire, to His Majesty the Emperor, and to you."

"Okay, very good." Feng Yuxiang patted the other party's shoulder heavily, and said, "I'm going to see the imperial flag planted over Erbil tomorrow, do you understand what I mean?"

"understand!"
