From to 1935 2020

After Dong Zhentang's troops received the equipment, Boss Zhu came over and said to Dong Zhentang with an unusually serious expression:

"Comrade Dong Zhentang, here is a very important

The task needs you and Comrade Lin Husan to undertake it together! "

** **

at the same time

Chen Changhao: "Has Comrade Katyusha not rested yet?"

The soldier who reported said excitedly: "No, she is still treating the wounded and sick! And she gave up all the meals we gave her to the wounded and sick, and only ate the meals of ordinary soldiers. It's really amazing!"

"This is a real Bolshevik! I heard that after Li De came to the Central Soviet Area, he put on airs and pretended to be a young master. He is completely an overlord. This is what a real Bolshevik should be like!"

Zhang Guotao continued to challenge bitterly. During this period of time, he had conflicts with the top leaders of the Central Red Army, and it was not that he had not met "Li De", one of the former three-member regiment.

"However, that Bogu was just a young man in his 20s who was being played around with, and Li De was just a scapegoat. The Central Red Army lost so much, the person who should really take responsibility should be..."

"Stop talking about it, we all know it well."

Chen Changhao interrupted him, and he is also worried now.

Just a few hours ago, together with Zhang Guotao, he and Zhang Guotao jointly sued Moscow for a bunch of black cases in the Central Soviet Area.

The reason is that the long hours of telegram communication in the early morning really frightened the two of them.Especially Zhang Guotao, he could imagine that the person he feared the most must have sued him a lot.

Zhang Guotao has the military power in his hands, but he is not afraid of what the opponent can do.He is not afraid even if people from the Communist International want him to step down—after all, he has been in business for so long, and the influence of the Communist International in the Red Fourth has been suppressed to a minimum.However, confrontation is also not advisable, because the invisible loss is very large.

The best result, of course, is that Moscow changes its attitude and views after hearing his lawsuit.After all, before this, the instructions sent by Moscow were to support the Central Red Army's opinion of going north instead of going south. (This is also the case in history. The specific communication method should be sent by the Central Red Army to the domestic radio station, and then the mainland will be transferred to the Soviet Union through other channels. There will be a lot of time interval in between)

Chen Changhao and Zhang Guotao sent telegrams all night. In addition to complaining to foreigners, the other thing was to explain to Moscow the "necessity of going south", hoping to get support from there.

What the two of them didn't know was that when Comrade Stalin took time out of his "busy schedule" to read the telegram they sent about going south, he just glanced at it, and then threw it aside with disdain.

"You're greedy for profit, you just take it for granted!"

After posting this comment, he took another look at the pile of Russian translations of Chinese materials sent by Huang Ketuofuhua.

In the tens of thousands of words of Chinese materials, some of them described in great detail the products, population, ethnic groups, climate and other information of Sichuan and the surrounding areas of Tibet. Attitude, analysis of the political situation in front of the entire Sichuan, and the infiltration of Chang Kaishen's forces.I was even worried that Stalin could not understand it, so I attached a topographic map of Sichuan (Republic of China version).

After Stalin looked at this document for a while, he threw it to the experts of the GBU (Soviet Military Intelligence Bureau) to interpret. In addition to evaluating the feasibility of the "success" of the two Red Army going south, he also had to evaluate the quality of the intelligence. .

Those military experts all agreed that going south will inevitably fail, and it is very likely that they will be surrounded and wiped out by the enemy.And he was full of praise for the "quality" of the information submitted by Huang Ke, saying that it was analyzed in great detail.

At that time, Stalin slammed the translation of the document onto the table, and said bitterly to the people around him:

"In the past ten years, if those bastards handed over one-tenth of the quality of this document, the Chinese revolution would not be in a mess like it is now!"

That night, after learning that "Comrade Stalin was in a very bad mood," the comrades of the Internal People's Commissariat also made Mif and Wang Ming, who were being interrogated, "be in a very bad mood."

While Stalin "praises" the quality of the documents sent by Huang Ke, he picked up Zhang Guotao's "complaint to foreigners" telegram in front of him and read it carefully in his hand, sneering in his heart from time to time.

Before Huang Ke sent the materials over, he knew that the top leaders of the Central Red Army and the Fourth Red Army were now engaged in fierce political conflicts.

In his view, it is a waste of time to look at Zhang Guotao's southward proposal telegram.On the contrary, this complaint telegram is of great value.

"There are objections, great!"

"Many lies can be judged true and false by comparison!"

"Let me see, in the past ten years, under my banner, what kind of bad things have you done!"

In the document that Huang Ke sent him, the most lethal part was the nasty things done by the domestic Soviet faction, wearing the tiger skin of the Communist International, and falsely preaching the imperial decree, and they had to throw all the scapegoat afterward. On Stalin's head.

This is the black material that will really kill Wang Ming!

The more serious crime than incompetence is deceit and concealment, and the more deadly crime is slandering Comrade Stalin.

For Stalin, China at this time was nothing more than a "sub-base of the revolution" in his mind, and the best way to get him to focus on this place was to "humiliate him"!

Stalin paid so much attention to China's affairs for two consecutive days because he just learned that he was "deceived, slandered, and blamed" time and time again for a long time...

Wang Ming and Mi Fu are completely dead this time!

****

morning of July 7

Zhang Guotao, who was eagerly looking forward to it, received a special call back from Moscow after dawn.

The telegram stated that the call had been received and that Comrade Stalin was considering it.

Although it is only a short one, the feeling of loose tone in Moscow is already very obvious.

"Great, that big radio station came just in time!"

Zhang Guotao was ecstatic when he got the news.In his opinion, last night's telegram of "revealing crimes" must have played a role.

"Fortunately, the radio station was escorted by the special correspondent of the Communist International, otherwise those people would definitely seize the radio station."

He thought happily in his heart.

What he didn't know was that when the telegram was sent, an expert on China from the NKVD was standing next to the telegraph operator, and the content of the telegram was sent under his instructions.

7/24

More telegrams that satisfied Zhang Guotao were sent from Moscow. This telegram was sent to Zhang Guotao and the Central Red Army at the same time.

In the content of the telegram, the Moscow side no longer insisted that the Red Army go north, but instead asked the Central Red Army to "discuss well" with the comrades of the Red Fourth Front Army based on the actual situation.At the end of the telegram, a very tactful addition was added: We must respect the opinions of the comrades of the Red Fourth Front Army who have been fighting in the Sichuan-Hubei region for a long time. After all, they are more familiar with the situation in Sichuan.

After receiving this telegram, Zhang Guotao was ecstatic.

Then, he decided to completely overthrow the original plan to go north. In fact, he never planned to go north.

After another big quarrel with Li Runshi of the Central Red Army, Comrade Wu Hao, who came out to fight with the mud, proposed to hold an enlarged meeting of the entire Red Army, so that all cadres above the Red Army regiment level of the Central and Red Fourth Legions could participate. .

"Democratic centralism!"

Wu Hao said at the time: "Everyone came to the stage to give speeches and express different views on the northward and southward advances, so that the senior cadres of the Red Army can make a judgment together!"

Zhang Guotao agreed. In his opinion, this was just the last struggle of "the nerds who stayed in the Soviet Union of the Central Red Army".

The time was set to be held two days later, on July 7, at the headquarters of the Fourth Red Army in Shawo.

Then as he expected, Wu Hao, who was unwilling, spent the next two days doing a lot of activities at the Red Fourth Army, constantly looking for Xu Shuai, Yu Tianyun, He Wei and a bunch of Red Fourth Army members. Cadres talk, even many regiment-level cadres are not spared.It was obvious that they wanted to persuade them, and the generals of the Fourth Red Army who had been talked to quickly fed back the content of the conversation to him-they all vowed that they would definitely support the opinions of "Commissioner Zhang".

Everything is under control!

However, what Zhang Guotao didn’t know was that at nine o’clock in the morning on July 7, a policeman on duty in a reference room in a certain police station in Beiping quietly found a document that had been sealed for more than ten years from the database. He went to a certain street corner outside, and then sold it to the agents of the Soviet Embassy in Beiping at a "high price" of 23 oceans.

The information bag was opened, and after briefly reading the contents of the information, the Soviet intelligence personnel stationed in Peiping, after asking Moscow for instructions, sent it back to the Soviet Union through the fastest channel-arriving in Moscow 48 hours later, Then several Soviet handwriting experts who had been prepared for a long time took out Zhang Guotao's transcripts when he was at Sun Yat-sen University in the Soviet Union, and began to identify...

An hour later, Comrade Stalin, who received the appraisal report, roared angrily: "Traitor!"

-------------------- Chapter 66 Sniff out and root out traitors --------------------

On the morning of July 7, Songpan. Maoergai. Shawo Village in Xiabazhai Township

Since yesterday, soldiers of the Fourth Red Army have been busy in the center of the village, mainly building a simple wooden platform with a table on it and dozens of benches under the platform.After the reunion, the enlarged meeting of the middle and high-level cadres of the two Red Army groups will be held here.

Standing on the wooden platform, Zhang Guotao sneered in his heart as he looked in the direction of the Central Red Army station in the southeast.

"In terms of guns, people, and the number of party members, I am more than you! Even the Communist International and Moscow have changed their positions and become neutral and no longer support you! Wu Hao, why do you fight me?"

Elena walked over, and said to Zhang Guotao with a straight face: "It's also a strategic shift. The Red Fourth Army has done very well in the past six months. After the hard battle, the strength of the main force has not only not been reduced, but has actually increased. After the Soviet Union, I will report to Comrade Stalin in detail."

The "Katyusha" who appeared in front of Zhang Guotao and Chen Changhao changed into a Soviet military uniform at this time - the military uniform was made by a tailor before leaving Shanghai, and it was an imitation.However, after being away from the Soviet Union for many years, Zhang Guotao couldn't tell it was fake for a while.Today's meeting is very important. As a "special correspondent" of the Comintern, it is only natural for me to attend the scene wearing a formal Soviet military uniform.

Zhang Guotao was even more delighted by the praise of Comrade "Katyusha".Although the other party did not clearly express their position, the meaning behind it was that they recognized the Red Fourth Front Army very much and believed that he "commanded well".such a commissioner

After returning home, as long as she said a few "good words" in front of Stalin, Zhang Guotao could fully imagine that in the future, "entering the Central Committee with dignity" was just around the corner.

"At that time, I will hold you responsible for the loss of the Central Soviet Area. There are a few guys, and I will wipe out all of you!"

Elena said: "Last night, I had a telegram with Moscow. Comrade Stalin was very concerned about today's meeting and asked me to report the results to him in detail as soon as possible. The conflict between the leaders of the Fourth Front Army and the Central Red Army, during this period I have also heard about it. I am worried that there will be an accident today. I hope to move the radio station to the scene. On the one hand, I can report to Comrade Stalin in a timely manner. Necessary conflict."

Zhang Guotao nodded, expressing his great agreement.Elena telegraphed with Moscow last night, which was carried out through the radio station of the Red Fourth Front Army, and he knew the relevant content without mentioning it.

The right time, place and people are all on me!

Of course he felt that he had the upper hand, and he really couldn't think of any way for his opponent to come back.

On the side of the Central Red Army, from top to bottom, there were heavy losses in personnel, a lot of equipment was lost, the clothes were tattered, and the ammunition was insufficient. The whole team was like a beggar.

In contrast, the Fourth Red Army has a completely different military look.Anyone with long eyes who saw it must have recognized him more than the beggars of the Central Red Army.

After getting Zhang Guotao's consent, Elena immediately directed the radio team of the Fourth Red Army to set up an antenna in a corner of the conference platform and set up a large radio station.In the past few days, she has been involved in the grassroots activities of the Fourth Red Army. Compared with the Central Red Army, when Zhang Guotao left the base area, he moved completely, and even took away all the personnel and family members of the local government units.Its strength is claimed to be [-], but it is actually [-]. However, due to the large number of non-combatants from family members and agencies, the actual combat strength is only about [-]. (Note: The Fourth Red Army at this time also included non-combat units such as women's divisions, Red Army schools, and military hospitals)

Chen Changhao walked by and whispered to Zhang Guotao: "They are here."

"How many people did you bring?"

"The total number is more than 600 people. One of the strengthened guard battalions has about 400 people. The equipment is very good."

"It's just a battalion. But we can't take it lightly. We are the home field here, and ask the guards to strengthen their vigilance."

Zhang Guotao also came from the bloody storm, and was once a member of the Liusu faction, so he was very aware of the tricks of the Liusu faction.Beforehand, they also considered whether the people in the Central Red Army would take this opportunity to learn from the ancients and play "beheading the generals before the battle, and mutiny seizes the army", and they are very defensive about this.

Zhang Guotao tried his best to think about it again, and felt that he had no flaws, so he and Chen Changhao nodded each other, and together with the senior officers of the Fourth Red Army who had arrived, they went to Zhaikou to meet the comrades of the Central Red Army.

As a special correspondent of the Communist International, Elena also mixed with people from the Red Fourth Army.After getting along with each other in the past few days, all members of the Red Fourth Front Army in this area have known this special commissioner from the Soviet Union from top to bottom.She is kind and skilled in medicine, and the special medicine she brought has saved countless seriously wounded people who were hovering on the death line.Antibiotics are the magic medicine in this period. After one injection, the wound will no longer suppurate the next day, and the condition of almost all the wounded is improving rapidly.As for other diseases, she also brought a large number of targeted drugs.What moved the grassroots staff of the Fourth Red Army even more was that the milk powder and foreign candies she brought brought many people a taste of "the sweetest food in the world" for the first time.

In short, everyone in the Fourth Red Army here in Shawozhai knew this special envoy of the Communist International, and everyone agreed that she came here on behalf of Stalin, and that she was a real "Bolshevik".

When the two high-level Red Army teams met, Elena was the most prominent core figure, attracting more people's attention.

As for Huang Ke, after sending the equipment and materials to the Red Army, he kept a low profile - the reason was quite normal: he was performing secret work, so he couldn't expose too much, and only a few senior officials of the Red Army had met him. Face to face, shake hands and say thanks.There is nothing doubtful about this.So at this time, Huang Ke was dressed as an orderly and miscellaneous soldier, standing in an inconspicuous corner to watch the excitement.

After pretending to be polite and chatting with the group of people in the center who were clapping tables and spraying each other a few days ago, the legions of the two Red Army teams joined the group one after another.In order to appeal to the aura and "canvassing" needs, a total of 200 officers from the Fourth Red Army came here, while only more than [-] officers from the Central Red Army came here, with a ratio of two to one.

Those who Zhang Guotao had observed in the Central Red Army were indeed mid-to-high-ranking military officers. Except for those who had to stay behind just in case, all who could come came.

Due to insufficient seats, many Red Army officers lacked seats and could only stand around or scattered.In order to prevent the Red Ones from "suddenly attacking", under Zhang Guotao's prior instruction, the Red Fourth Army officers at the home court gave up a large number of seats, and then separated the Central Red Army's officers in a two-to-one manner.

"Maybe I'm overthinking, but there's nothing wrong with being careful."

Before the meeting started, Zhang Guotao noticed that the participating officers of the Central Red Army voluntarily left their guns outside and did not bring them into the scene, assuming a very calm attitude.However, just in case, Zhang Guotao ordered people to arrange the guard camp brought by the other party outside the village, and then pretended to be warm to receive him.

Before the meeting started, people from the Central Red Army brought advanced microphones and speakers—they were all "future equipment" brought by Huang Ke. After some tuning and testing, the loud speaker could be heard throughout Shawo Village decibels of sound.

After completing all the preparations in the early stage, Wu Hao took the stage to speak first, and after politely expressing his gratitude to comrades of the Red Quartet Army for their various support for Hong Yi, Wu Hao's words changed, and the support of the Communist International was involved.

The support of the Communist International has been felt by the entire Red Fourth Front Army in the past few days. A large number of people have eaten the candies brought by the two of them—the quantity is limited, one for each person.Therefore, the officers of the Red Fourth Front Army at the scene were very grateful to Elena.

After the words of thanks, the officers of Red Fourth enthusiastically applauded Elena who was standing in a corner of the stage.

After the applause stopped, Comrade Wu Hao suddenly changed his tone.
