Natalie smiled wryly, and nodded slightly at Marshal Schimwig: "Your Excellency, Poland is not Germany's opponent, no matter whether she has become stronger or not. Even if we got Belarus and Ukraine from the war that destroyed the Soviet Union, Poland is nothing but a Second-rate or even third-rate countries are far inferior to Germany and China! And our Poland is so close to Germany... So after we defeated the Soviet Union together with Germany, we must act as followers of Germany for a long time! Only for Germany Patience! Patience! Patience!"
Marshal Himmwig obviously did not agree with Natalie's opinion. He sat there and insisted on his own opinion: "But there are still Britain and France! Poland can join forces with Britain and France to contain Germany's ambitions. Yes If the three of us join hands, Germany must not dare to have any unreasonable ideas. It would be even more ideal if China could also join hands with us."
Piłsudski frowned, and slowly shook his head: "Himmiwig, it is much safer for Poland to join Germany in a war with Britain and France than to join Britain and France in a war with Germany! Britain and France are far away from us, and they are neither threatening nor dangerous. We can't protect us. They will just throw Poland to Germany to buy time for them to fully prepare for war... and Ukrainians and Belarusians will not accept Poland's leadership so easily, let alone fight for Poland, Once the mainland of Poland is ravaged by Germany, the Great Poland that we had so hard to get will collapse in an instant. Besides, even if our sacrifices bought enough preparation time for Britain and France, allowing them to defeat Germany...they will fight Will Great Poland be restored in the future? This is obviously impossible. In this case, why should we sacrifice for Britain and France? It is better to continue to stand on the side of Germany. Of course, if there is a stalemate in the war between Britain, France and Germany , then Poland can consider other options... Shemiwig, do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand." Hemiweg suddenly realized: "Your Excellency, Marshal, should we immediately agree to the German request?"
"No, it's not in a hurry." Piłsudski waved his hand: "Let's tell London what the Germans want...just tell them that Germany wants Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia, as well as foreign countries. Caucasus and Central Asian colonies. Poland can form an alliance with Belarus and Ukraine, and with the help of Germany and China, it can complete the modernization of the army and build the necessary arms industry.”
……
London, No. [-] Downing Street, British Prime Minister Ramsey MacDonald is stroking his two neatly trimmed mustaches, together with Foreign Secretary Sir John Simon, holding a telegram sent by the British ambassador to Poland, smiling with satisfaction : "It seems that this Hitler is not a complete lunatic. He still knows what he is doing and who is the real master of this world."
"Then can the empire immediately agree to lift the restrictions imposed on Germany by the Treaty of Versailles so that they can rearm themselves?" Sir Simon was also very satisfied.After he received a telegram from Sir Lampson, the British ambassador to China, he was immediately deeply moved by the grand plan to restore the Normanov dynasty after the demise of the Soviet Union.
"No, no, John." MacDonald shook his head and said, "It's still too early, we still need to continue to observe the development of the whole incident, and...we also need to test Germany's attitude to see if they really want to reconcile with us. The empire is cooperating, or it is deceiving the empire. You must know that those Germans are very cunning. In addition, the Chinese must continue to test..."
John Simon froze for a moment, then nodded.If Germany and China really succeeded in the war against the Soviet Union, then they might turn their backs and turn their backs on the Soviet Union, dividing the Soviet Union into five. Then China and Germany, which controlled most of the Eurasian continent, would be It's hard to contain.
"And I really want to know how the tyrant Stalin will react when he learns that China and Germany are jointly preparing to overthrow his Soviet regime?" McDonald's mouth reveals a hint of amusement.
Keeping the world balanced under its leadership is the biggest goal that the British Empire has been pursuing tirelessly over the years. Only in this way can Britain maintain its global hegemony with its already declining national power.But right now the balance of the world is being broken. The United States, the Soviet Union, China, and Germany are shaking the world hegemony under the rule of the British Empire from different angles.For Britain, a war with any of these countries will mean the collapse of the world empire!Even if Britain can beat its opponent, it will not be able to continue to fight a second challenger.In MacDonald's view, the best way to maintain the world empire is to exhaust the three challengers, China, Germany, and the Soviet Union, in a protracted war!
"Tell the Japanese that we don't want Japan to be too involved in the Soviet Union's civil war. Their main task now is to restore the fragile domestic economy. To do this, it is best to be a maritime country with peace of mind and stop harboring any suspicions about the mainland. What a fantasy."
"Telephone Sir Lampson and ask him to tell Chairman Chiang Kai-shek that the imperial government is very interested in knowing what China intends to do with the three warships that have just been salvaged? Can the Japanese government redeem them at a reasonable price? I think they should Know the limitations of the Naval Armament Limitation Treaty?"
"Oh, by the way, tell the Soviet side about the ongoing conspiracy of China, Germany, and Poland through secret channels. In addition, I will telegraph Prime Minister Tardieu (French Prime Minister) and ask him to come to London at a convenient time. I want to exchange views with him on the China-Germany-Poland Triple Alliance.”
"One last question to Piłsudski. Does he know a woman named Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova? I've heard people say that she seems to live in America."
Sir Simon smiled very gentlemanly. Although Prime Minister MacDonald was born in the Labor Party, he still seemed to understand the essence of the British Empire's balance technique. While encouraging the three land powers of Germany, China, and the Soviet Union to fight a large-scale war, On the one hand, it uses Japan's sea power, France's land power, and Poland to restrict China and Germany, and finally wants to restrict China and Germany from developing powerful navies.But thinking of the prospect of British maritime hegemony at the moment, John Simon couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart. With the outstanding performance of aircraft carriers in the Sino-Japanese South China Sea War not long ago, the era of battleships seems to have passed.However, Britain does not have enough financial resources to build more aircraft carriers, nor is it determined to eliminate a large number of battleships.To make matters worse, the harsh climate of the North Sea and the North Atlantic makes the British aircraft carrier have to have a stronger hull and better sea trials, so that the construction cost is too high and the number of aircraft on board is too small.So much so that the British aircraft carrier is no match for the Chinese and American aircraft carriers of the same tonnage in the Pacific Ocean.Unless Britain can build more aircraft carriers, it will be difficult to maintain world hegemony for a long time by balancing alone.
Chapter 0652 anti-Comintern agreement (thirteen) boarded the pirate ship!
Warsaw, the capital of Poland, has been covered with greenery that symbolizes spring.The boulevards on both sides of the Vistula River are already lush and full of gorgeous buildings, exquisite sculptures and bustling pedestrians.This city looks so bustling and lively.
Luo Yaoguo was sitting in the car. Today he was wearing a marshal's uniform covered with medals, quietly looking at the spring scenery outside the window.And Natalie sat next to him.Today is the most important day since his visit to Europe.All the hard work, all the behind-the-scenes maneuvers, will come to the final result today.Because today is the day when the "Anti-Comintern Pact" between China, Germany and Poland was signed!
With the nods of approval from Britain and France, Da Bobo finally stopped hesitating and joined the "Anti-Comintern Pact" that destroyed the Soviet Union.It's been more than a month.The negotiations among China, Germany, and Poland are slowly but intensely unfolding in this refreshing spring.
Although the general principles for the three countries to cooperate and establish an anti-Soviet alliance have been finalized, the specific content of this agreement has not yet been finalized.After all, these are three nationalist regimes negotiating, and of course every inch must be fought for the benefit of their respective nations.Poland wants more aid in order to build a stronger army; China wants to obtain more advanced technology through strengthening technical cooperation with Germany; Germany needs China's non-ferrous metals, funds, and secretly provides dozens of ships Submarines, for Big Bobo, want them to provide more grain to fill Germany's granaries-in order to revive the economy, Hitler has decided to follow China's implementation of foreign exchange controls, increase the money supply, and start a large number of infrastructure.In this case, he believes that Germany needs enough cheap food to ease the pressure of inflation.
As for the division of the territory of the Soviet Union, China, Germany, and Poland did not have much difference.With the assistance of Poland and the acquiescence of Britain and France, Germany will annex the three independent countries of Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia.And Poland will get Belarus and Ukraine after defeating the Soviet Union.And China can get the Soviet Far East and a small piece of Central Asia.In addition, the entire Soviet Central Asia and Transcaucasus regions will also be separated from the Soviet Union and become two large colonies of German Central Asia and Chinese Central Asia, which belong to Germany and China respectively.
Of course, this is only an apparent division of the Soviet Union's territory.Because in the remaining part of the Soviet Union, including the European part of Russia and Siberia, which covers more than 600 million square kilometers, according to the secret agreement of the "Anti-Comintern Pact", the Russian Empire will be restored.And under the suggestion of Britain and France, a tsar princess who lives in exile in the United States and does not know the truth, Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova will become the empress of this new Tsarist Russia!But Hitler and Luo Yaoguo obviously didn't really want to liberate the Russian people.After friendly negotiations, the two horned demons proposed the concept of "garrison power".In short, China can station troops throughout Eastern Siberia and half of West Siberia to "protect" the Russian people there from being bullied by evil forces, while the rest of the Soviet Union belongs to Hitler's Nazi German garrison...
Inside and outside the gate of Belvedere Palace, there are already troops all over the place.Wearing a black military uniform and a swastika armband is naturally the famous Nazi SS.Those SS soldiers came to Warsaw with Hitler. They were all blond, blue-eyed, and all over 180 centimeters tall.Standing opposite them were Polish soldiers in khaki military uniforms. They were Piłsudski's guards, and they were all big Poles of the same color.Both sides stood in the most beautiful military posture, their eyes collided, and neither of them wanted to show weakness.
The two sides have been enemies for hundreds of years, and the antagonism will not be eliminated by a treaty.In the car, Luo Yaoguo saw that both sides looked like fighting roosters, and he couldn't help laughing: "We're already allies, why does it still smell like gunpowder when we meet? What's there to fight here?"
Natalie turned her head and glanced at Luo Yaoguo, and said with a faint smile, "Fuwen, we Poles and their Germans are not particularly mature peoples, and we are not used to the alliance between old enemies. If it were Britain, France and Italy This kind of old fried dough stick nation will not be like this.”
Luo Yaoguo couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard the word "Old Youtiao". This Polish woman didn't know where she learned this word, but the word "Old Youtiao" was very suitable to describe herself up.
The convoy stopped in the gardens of Belvedere.Major General Wu Tuohao, military attache of the Chinese embassy in Poland, led a team of embassy guards, accompanied by Polish military officers, and a group of people came over.Wu Tuohao opened the car door for Luo Yaoguo.All the civil and military officials from Poland and Germany turned their eyes in unison, looking at the Chinese marshal who single-handedly promoted the cooperation between China and Germany, and now further united China, Germany and Poland.If the Soviet Union was wiped out in the end, then this Chinese soldier wearing a yellow woolen uniform, with thick black eyebrows, a handsome figure, and piercing eyes is undoubtedly the terminator of the Soviet Union's national destiny!
Wu Tuohao gave a military salute to Luo Yaoguo: "Chancellor Hitler and Marshal Piłsudski have already taken their seats with their chief entourage, and the teacher's chief entourage, Minister Wang, is already waiting in the conference hall. I will lead the way and guide the teacher Go in first with the teacher."
Luo Yaoguo smiled and patted Wu Tuohao on the shoulder: "Mouxian, you have put in a lot of effort to sign the agreement so quickly this time. After signing the agreement, my country and Poland will send military delegations to each other. Military representatives You will be the head of the regiment. Work hard in the future, your work is crucial to our cause." He glanced around again, and the high-level figures in Poland and Germany seemed to be enjoying themselves .
Luo Yaoguo smiled: "If these big shots think the same in their hearts, our big deal will be half done. Let's go! Let's go in!"
Belvedere's spacious hall has been arranged to look like the signing of a treaty.In the center was a long conference table, covered with a black velvet tablecloth, with a row of chairs on one side of the conference table.When Luo Yaoguo and Natalie walked in, Hitler, Piłsudski, Wang Jingwei and others were already sitting in their seats.Hitler and Piłsudski were chatting and laughing, and the two dictators were trying their best to flatter each other.Wang Jingwei still looked elegant, and was talking in a low voice with the German Foreign Minister Konstantin von Neureit beside him.
Seeing Luo Yaoguo walk in, both Hitler and Piłsudski stood up enthusiastically.Hitler greeted warmly and politely first: "Marshal Luo, today we and Marshal Piłsudski are going to make history here! The excellent Aryan nation, Polish nation and Han nation will be here because of today's agreement And towards revival!" Piłsudski also grinned and echoed: "The three great countries of Poland, Germany, and China will also become even greater because of the alliance concluded today!"
Luo Yaoguo smiled, but stood still first, solemnly gave a military salute to the two dictators, and then warmly shook hands with them: "Chancellor Hitler, Field Marshal Piłsudski, the noose has been put around the neck of the Soviet Union, and now Just step by step and slowly tighten the rope, we can win 1000 years of prosperity for the people of our three countries, and it is the greatest honor in my life to participate in such a grand event with the two of you!"
He was very humble in his mouth, but he was praying silently in his heart.There are three people here, and Lao Bi looks so old, so naturally he won't live long.Hitler's end in history was suicide in the bunker.And I mustn't take the place of that stupid old Mo, and be caught and killed in the end, and even drag Natalie down...
……
On May 1932, 5, Luo Yaoguo, Adolf Hitler and Jozef Piłsudski signed the Anti-Comintern Pact at the Belvedere Palace in Warsaw, Poland.This agreement, just like in history, marks the official establishment of the Axis military bloc!Only Italy and Japan were replaced by China and Poland.And behind the signing of this agreement, there is also the support and acquiescence of the United Kingdom, France, and the United States.Luo Yaoguo's hard work in these years has finally achieved almost complete results.With the participation of China, Germany and Poland, the support of the British, American and French powers, and the sympathetic Russian princess Anastasia as the puppet queen, there is an anti-Soviet alliance.In the future world war, China should be able to share a piece of fertile territory, right?
The Anti-Comintern Pact was, of course, divided into public and secret parts.There are only some principled clauses in the public part.China, Germany, and Poland jointly expressed their dislike for the Soviet Union and the Communist International to undermine the stability of other countries in the name of revolution, and indicated that the three countries would work together to contain the Soviet Union's expansionary ambitions.At the same time, it also expressed that the three countries will take a joint action against the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Union's attack on any of the three countries will be regarded as a war against the other two countries!China and Poland also declared their support for Germany to become a normal country, hoping that Germany could take on more obligations to contain the Soviet Union.At the same time, Germany also announced that it will carry out more extensive economic, military, and technological cooperation with Poland and China, and will use Germany's leading industrial technology to help China and Poland build modern armies to resist Soviet aggression.The secret part of the treaty includes a timetable of aggression against the Soviet Union, plans and specific steps to carve up the Soviet Union, as well as the obligations and responsibilities that China, Germany, and Poland will bear in this war...
……
The announcement of the "Anti-Comintern Pact" was already expected.However, it caused the greatest shock in the entire communist camp, especially among the Soviet Bolshevik Party, the Soviet Trotskyites and the Chinese Communist Party.If it was said that the International Communist Movement was on the offensive against the entire capitalist world before, then now, the three imperialist countries of China, Germany and Poland have united to launch a counter-offensive!If it is said that Trotsky raised the flag of rebellion and provoked the Soviet-Russian Civil War, the development of the International Communist Movement was hindered.So now the International Communist Movement feels a serious survival crisis!The cause of communism seems to have reached its most dangerous moment. Only the workers of the world can unite to save the fate of the Soviet Union, which is surrounded by world capitalism.But first of all, it is necessary to stop the two proletarian armies in the Soviet Union from killing each other.
Just a week after the official announcement of the public part of the Anti-Comintern Pact.Trotsky, who was in a weak position in the Soviet Civil War, issued a statement in Vladivostok, expressing his willingness to start negotiations with Moscow in order to restore the unity of the entire international communist movement and unite against the upcoming war of aggression launched by the imperialists!And shouted the slogan "The proletariat does not fight the proletariat".As soon as this statement was released, it immediately caused even greater waves in the entire international communist movement.Even at the top of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, some people believed that Trotsky's proposal should be accepted and negotiations should be carried out with the Trotskyites, and the Trotskyite issue should be resolved through negotiations rather than military attacks.However, Stalin sneered at this. Instead, he issued a strict order to attack the Far East Front. He also ordered the arrest of Tukhachevsky who made this suggestion, and set off a wave of suppression in the Soviet Union's entire party and army.At the same time, Suto's "suggestion" was sent to the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in Baotou Special Zone, Suiyuan Province, China.
To be precise, there is nothing wrong with Stalin's approach of "to fight against the outside world, we must first settle the inside".Although China, Germany and Poland have signed an anti-Soviet agreement, the war will not come yet.Because Germany, the most powerful of the three countries, has not yet gotten rid of the "Treaty of Versailles" and re-armed.Without the participation of Germany, China and Poland would not be able to defeat the Soviet Union in any case.And the revival of Germany, even if everything goes well, will take at least ten years, right?Then Stalin was quicker, quickly eliminated Trotsky to unify the Soviet Union, and then launched two five-year plans. Is there any need to be afraid of China and Germany?And now that Trotsky actually offered to make peace with Stalin, doesn't it just mean that the Trotskyist army in the Far East is almost unable to support it?Perhaps with one last push, the Trotskyite problem could be settled once and for all.
However, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, which received the suggestion of Stalin Suto, was in a dilemma.On the one hand, CCP leaders Zhou Enlai and Mao Zedong disagreed from the bottom of their hearts with Stalin’s idea that they must first secure the country’s internal affairs in order to fight against the outside world. Didn’t the CCP lose Heilongjiang and Jilin last year because of the Sutuo War?On the one hand, the CCP now has a feeling that it is difficult to deal with the most common thing in the international communist movement, the eradication of counter-revolutionaries and trustees... because they now have a generous central government on their heads!But this central government really takes itself seriously!In addition to giving money, they also want to interfere with the justice of the CCP-ruled areas!It's really shameless!
And it's not only the "political crime" of sutuo and anti-rebellion, even for criminal crimes such as corruption, the Ministry of Justice of the Nationalist Government and the Military Law Department of the National Army also unceremoniously interfere!And it's plausible.
"Comrade Baitai, what are you talking about? The Kuomintang sent a lawyer surnamed Zhang...to defend that big embezzler, Zuo Xiangyun!?" Zhou Enlai stared at Liang, the director of the Judicial Bureau of Suiyuan Province, who was looking resentful. Bai Tai: "What the hell is going on? What does it matter to them if we shoot a corrupt criminal?"
Liang Baitai nodded emphatically: "Vice Chairman Zhou, who said otherwise! That man named Zhang Shizhao, I think, is a Kuomintang spy! It's better to let the Political Security Bureau arrest him for trial and shoot him!"
"What's going on? Tell me more clearly. How did that Zhang Shizhao come to Baotou?" Zhou Enlai frowned. Now that the CCP has recognized the KMT as the central government, how can they casually shoot people sent by the central government? Woolen cloth?Do you really think the Kuomintang is so easy to talk about?Moreover, this Zhang Shizhao is a celebrity in the Kuomintang-controlled area, and has provided funding for many CCP leaders to stay in Europe. How could he be shot!
"Ah! It's not that the Kuomintang has changed its ways to deal with us!" Liang Baitai shook his head and sighed: "That Zhang Shizhao who claims to be the chairman of the Bar Association, this time it is Zhang Junmai, the Minister of Justice of the National Government, who came to our site together. Come up to inspect our judiciary!" He gritted his teeth at this point: "Hmph, the Minister of Justice of the Kuomintang actually..."
"Baitai. Get down to business, don't digress." Zhou Enlai interrupted Liang Baitai and asked him to continue talking about Zhang Shizhao.Don't get involved with the relationship with the national government.Regarding the relationship with the Nationalist government, the CCP is now divided into two factions.One group, represented by Zhang Xueliang, Zhang Guotao, and Gu Shunzhang, believed that since the CCP recognized the central position of the national government, it should obey the central government to a certain extent.One group, represented by Wang Ming, Bogu, and Zhang Wentian, believed that the relationship with the Nationalist government should be severed, and that they should return to the camp of the Communist International to launch the Soviet War and defend the Soviet Union.They believe that recognizing the central government of the Nationalist government, accepting military subsidies from the Nationalist government, agreeing that military cadres at all levels receive the reserve ranks and military pay of the Nationalist government, and allowing CCP members to continue to hold property in the areas ruled by the Nationalist government are all The manifestation of "Right capitulationism"!We must resolutely fight against it!
Although Zhou Enlai and Mao Zedong also knew that the views of Wang Ming and others were reasonable, letting the national government use the name of the central government to interfere in the internal affairs of the CCP through the national constitution and laws would indeed cause very adverse effects.But in the current situation, it is even more unfavorable to start a war with the national government, and there is almost no chance of winning.
Seeing Zhou Enlai's attitude, Liang Baitai sighed helplessly: "Vice Chairman Zhou, this time when Zhang Junmai, the Minister of Justice of the Kuomintang, discovered the Zuo Xiangyun corruption case when he inspected our jurisdiction... I thought he found some kind of slander. Opportunity to attack our party. Said that the district court did not impose the death penalty and must be approved by the Supreme Court. We can't shoot people without going through their Supreme Court! And also accused the big corrupt criminal of not participating in the defense lawyer and jury He was convicted under the circumstances, which did not comply with the legal procedures and had to be retried, and Zhang Shizhao was appointed as his defense lawyer."
Chapter 0653 Iron Curtain ([-]) Power of life and death
"Mr. Lizhai, why is this?"
Zhou Enlai looked at Zhang Junmai, the deputy director of the Military Law Department of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government who had just visited, and his expression was a little excited: "The Kuomintang's appointment of Mr. Li Zhai as the Minister of Justice is obviously a conspiracy! They just want to take advantage of Mr. Li Zhai's prestige among democrats. To endorse their dictatorship, and also want to use sir to attack our party’s prestige, in order to achieve the purpose of maintaining their dictatorship, sir, don’t be fooled!”
In the face of the agitated Zhou Enlai, Zhang Junmai always remained calm: "The Chief Political Commissar of Zhou (General Political Commissar of the Frontier Defense Army), the Minister of Justice of the National Government was recommended by Yu Ranweng (Yu Youren), the President of the Overwatch Council, to take up the post. What kind of conspiracy is the KMT."
"...In the national government, there are many people who understand the military and the revolution, but there are very few people who understand the law. Therefore, the level of law enforcement and law-making are relatively low, and the randomness is relatively large. This is what the national government must do during the training period It needs to be perfected. However, the formulation and implementation of laws in your party’s jurisdiction is more imperfect and more arbitrary than that of the national government. Your criminal law and civil law...” Zhang Junmai shook his head at this point, and said with a wry smile: “ Your "Criminal Code" is a reprint of the 1926 "Primary Code" of the Soviet Union, and it has nothing to do with the "Criminal Code of the Republic of China" passed by the Legislative and Supervisory Chambers! Moreover, the executive, legislative, and judiciary are completely confused. It’s not like part of the Republic of China!”
After hearing what Zhang Junmai said, Zhou Enlai immediately felt the seriousness of the matter.Those who are in the top position and control their subordinates rely on strict rewards and punishments and clear orders.To put it bluntly, it means that the rewards and punishments are clear, so that the people below can be obedient.However, the Nationalist Government has used reserve military pay to disrupt the "reward" of the CCP, and now it is going to disrupt the "punishment" by interfering with the CCP's judicial power and depriving the CCP of its legislative power!If the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China loses the power of life and death over its subordinates...
"Mr. Lizhai, when our party was negotiating peaceful reunification with the Kuomintang, the issue of judicial and legislative power was not involved, so they have no right to interfere with our judicial and legislative power now." Zhou Enlai pointed out to Zhang Junmai with a serious expression. His erroneous point of view: "The Kuomintang wants to disrupt the overall situation of peaceful reunification by interfering in our judiciary and legislation, so as to achieve their conspiracy to launch a civil war to eliminate our party."
Zhang Junmai adjusted his rimless glasses and looked at Zhou Enlai with regret in his eyes: "Political Commissar Zhou, if you don't recognize the legislative and supervisory powers of the two houses, why do you still send representatives to the two houses? Are they representatives of public opinion? Didn’t you enact and amend laws on behalf of the people of the six provinces, but just go there to cause trouble for the KMT?”
