Chapter 512 China, the Soviet Union, island countries...

In June 28, the "Xu case" occurred in Chongqing, the temporary accompaniment.

The so-called "Xu case" refers to the case of Xu Enzeng, deputy director of the Statistical Investigation Bureau of the Central Party Committee of the Kuomintang!

Xu Enzeng, deputy director of the Statistical Investigation Bureau of the Central Party Committee of the Kuomintang, was named Kejun, from Wuxing, Zhejiang Province. He was born in a large landlord family. Xu Xinliu, a famous Zhejiang chaebol, was his close relative.

Xu Enzeng's father died early, with three brothers, and Xu Enzeng ranked second. Brother Xu died before the war against the enemy, and had several children. His second sons, Xu Shanqing and Xu Shanxiang.

In 1927, he joined Chen Guofu and the central club organized by Chen Lifu. In 1931, he served as the head of the Party Affairs Investigation Section of the Central Organization Department of the Kuomintang Central Organization Department, expanded the institutions and trained spies. In 11935, he was promoted to director. Later, after the founding of the Investigation and Statistics Bureau of the Central Executive Committee of the Kuomintang, he served as deputy director.

As for the investigation and trial of the "Xu case", it has always been carried out in a secret state. Only a few people knew that they had passed by.

Corruption and smuggling, corruption in life, abuse of power... He was charged nine charges in total, but there was no proof of assassination of soldiers, especially the ambush of Zheng Yong halfway, which was not mentioned at all.

Maybe it was to give face to the Chen brothers, maybe it was to see Xu Enzeng’s past achievements...

"Hengyuan, you are wronged." This is the first sentence the chairman said to Zheng Yong: "I know you feel bad, but as the leader of a country, I must consider all aspects and balance the forces of all parties, but I can promise you that when the time is ripe, I, Chiang Kai-shek, will definitely give you an explanation..."

"The CEO is so serious!" Zheng Yong said loudly.

"Everything that Zheng Yong is given by the president. Zheng Yong will do whatever the president asks Zheng Yong to do. There is no grievance. Even if there is really grievance, Zheng Yong must put the interests of the party and the country first!"

"Hengyuan, Hengyuan..." The Chairman seemed to be really moved, and he was choked when he heard his voice: "Why don't you think about yourself, sometimes people are too honest and easily suffer losses..."

Zheng Yong really wants to tell the president that it is precisely because of his "honestness" that he has made himself rise to the top and gained huge power, so that he can always be able to do things easily no matter when he starts.

In fact, everyone has two masks, one in front of others and the other behind them. The only thing you have to do is to choose the mask that suits you the most at the right time and at the right place...

"Sit down, sit down and talk." The chairman waved his hand and let Zheng Yong sit down.

"You can't let honest people suffer losses, otherwise who will be honest in the future? Let's do this. The 25 million US dollars loan from the United States has been in place. Kong Xiangxi has also told me that your third war zone is indeed difficult, and you have to use money everywhere. I thought about it carefully. This time you can take three million US dollars away..."

Zheng Yong almost jumped up. Three million US dollars, this was simply an astronomical figure.

I exchanged one of my adjutants and the things I encountered to get the funds worth it no matter what, although it has not reached the psychological price I want.

He now wishes that Xu Enzeng is still in his position and will kill himself again...

"There are also a batch of newly arrived weapons from the Soviet Union. I have already sent you one of my friends. There are only so many things I can do for you. The rest depends on you. I hope you don't let me down..."

The chairman said with a smile.

"President, Zheng Yong has never disappointed you." Zheng Yong said heavily.

"Okay, your problem has been solved barely. Let's talk about something internationally. This document was sent to me. Please take a closer look..."

After taking the document handed over by the president, it was the latest progress in the battle between Japan and Sunomenkan.

After the outbreak of the Nomenkan war, the Soviet commander of the 57th Special Army, Fukrenko, was ineffective in command, which led to the Soviet army being defeated in the early stage of the battle. The Soviet Union finally decided that Zhukov would take over as the commander of the 57th Special Army.

After Zhukov took over as commander of the army, he believed that it would be difficult to stop the island army's actions with his existing forces alone, so he proposed to the People's Committee of National Defense to increase its forces.

He asked the additional troops to be dispatched were aviation units, more than three infantry divisions, a tank brigade and artillery units. The General Staff of the Red Army accepted this request and immediately took necessary measures.

Since then, the number of military transport on the Siberian Railway increased. In the early days, several military trains were in batches and continued to advance eastward at a certain time. But later, the time intervals of each batch of military trains became shorter and shorter. Sometimes they were even weaved into batches of thirty military trains. All this shows that the Soviet army was gathering a large number of troops.

The aftermath of the first Nomenkan incident had not been completed, and the Kwantung Army received another telegram from Komatsuhara. The content of the telegram was that the Soviet army continued to increase troops in Nomenkan and was preparing to expel the "Manchukuo" army; Soviet aircraft bombed the hot spring area and the Ganguer Temple, causing losses. Moreover, the division commander suggested taking the initiative to punish the Soviet Union in terms of defense responsibilities.

After receiving the telegram, the Kwantung Army Command immediately convened a combat meeting and ordered the mobilization of troops towards Nomenkan. The mobilized forces included all the 23rd Division after the supplementary registrar, the Yasuka Detachment consisting of the First Tank Regiment and the Seventh Division, and the Second Flight Regiment.

This is a large-scale mobilization of troops without any precedent in border disputes. The policy is to have a head-on conflict with the Soviet army and have a very tough attitude.

The second Nomenkan incident developed into a large-scale war. In order to ensure air supremacy, the island army dispatched 130 aircraft to carry out air strikes on the Su-Meng Air Force Base.

This large bombing of Tamsk made the Soviet Union know that the island states were determined to launch a large-scale attack, and the Soviet Union continued to increase troops around Nomonkan. This worsened the relationship between the island states' staff headquarters and the Kwantung Army, which was originally hostile to each other.

It is said that after receiving a call from the Kwantung Army to report the results, the combat section chief of Inada Masaku actually cursed.

"Bastard, what's the result!"

He ordered the commander of the Kwantung Army to engage in caution, which was carefully considered. However, the Kwantung Army Command strongly opposed this attitude of the Army Headquarters and argued that bombing was a retaliation measure. At the same time, it still insisted on the tough theory and attempted to force the attack.

As a result, the island army dispatched tens of thousands of troops to engage in a real local war. This war was carried out by the Kwantung Army without the support of the Army Headquarters, and the Soviet side also made large-scale mobilizations.

On the night of June 2, the main force of the 23rd Division arrived at the left bank of the Halaha River as planned.

In response, the Soviet Union's resistance was very fierce and hundreds of tanks were dispatched to fight back.

In this battle, the island country's anti-tank guns and the tactics of using moor bottles to destroy marching tanks were exerted. By the afternoon of the 3rd, the battle situation began to turn into a disadvantage to the island country. The 23rd Division retreated to the right bank of the Halaha River to meet with the Yasuka Detachment.

In addition, the left and right banks launched an attack on the enemy's positions, and the Yasuoka Detachment also lost forty tanks and retreated.

The next day, the island country launched another attack, but was not successful due to fire interception from tanks and heavy artillery.

After the 10th, the front line was in a stalemate. Seeing this situation, the General Staff knew that it would be difficult to win in Nomenkan in the short term and was ready to make concessions by the island country, specifically, recognize the border line advocated by Outer Mongolia and the Soviet Union to end the battle. However, the Kwantung Army repeatedly insisted that the Soviet Union suffered great losses and advocated another large-scale attack...

Zheng Yong put down the documents in his hand and said lightly.

"The island nation will lose, and the Soviet Union will win."

The chairman seemed to know that he would say so, and he nodded slowly.

"The island countries completely underestimated the Soviet Union's combat courage and their military strength." Zheng Yong sneered: "The island countries completely regard themselves as a real military power, but in fact they are nothing, at best they are just a second-rate level.

In fact, before China suffered a crushing defeat, the island countries did not regard us as real opponents. Defeating the Soviet Union was the traditional mission of the island country's army. The annual annual plan was mainly formulated based on the Soviet Union as the hypothetical enemy.

Its main force is of course the Kwantung Army that "treats the weak enemy". This war is not only for the Kwantung Army, but also for the entire island army, it is also the first battle to the army armed with modern equipment as its opponent.

The Kwantung Army's estimate of the Soviet army's strength is too naive. Take this point. The Soviet army can use many new tactics in tank battles alone. I personally think that the island army cannot resist and have no choice but to do anything. The Kwantung Army is no match for the Soviet Union at all.

I remember Mr. Jiang Baili once told me that the tactical ideas of the island country are actually very backward.

Although they emphasized mechanization, the idea of ​​relying on hand-to-hand combat in the island army is still deeply rooted. This idea of ​​"spirit first" will become more and more emphasized as the situation deteriorates.

The officers of the island army, especially the assistants and generals, lack training and enthusiasm, and have a dogmatic tendency. Sergeant-level cadres are well trained and fight tenaciously regardless of everything. They never surrender and can commit suicide without hesitation. But in this way, how far is the Kanto Army still set?

That's why I boldly predict that the island country will lose and the Soviet Union will win.

However, this also has a negative side to us, that is, from the perspective of the Soviet Union, they are not only not prepared for a full-scale war, but also have to use a considerable amount of energy to deal with the German threat. So I think the day when the local war between Japan and the Soviet Union ends, that is, the day when the two countries start negotiations, and we will be abandoned again.

The aid that had promised would no longer be available, and the Soviet Union would no longer look at us with a direct look.
Chapter completed!
