Huang Kegong walked up to him, grabbed the scrawny death row prisoner by the collar, picked him up, threw him on the kang, and said coldly: "Look at your bear! If the Kuomintang reactionaries call you, you must be the first to be a traitor!" As he spoke, a hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Listen carefully, the barrister surnamed Zhang will come here to see you later... what What should be said, what should not be said, I will remind you."
"I will definitely cooperate with the organization, and I will make meritorious deeds. I will expose that lawyer as a Kuomintang spy, and he is a great Kuomintang spy..."
With a "snap", Huang Kegong slapped it with a big ear scraper, and snorted coldly through his nasal cavity: "Who wants you to expose him? Do you still think the water is not muddy enough? Are you willing to start a civil war? Let me tell you, The Kuomintang can overturn your death sentence, but it doesn’t mean it can save your life! You must cooperate with the party’s work now, if you dare to do something that is sorry for the party or the people, hehe…”
……
At this time, Zhou Enlai was also having breakfast at the headquarters of the CPC Central Committee in Baotou Special Zone, which consisted of rice porridge and a few side dishes.Although simple, it is also considered nutritious, with an attractive aroma on the table.But Zhou Enlai was not thinking about this at all.There were thick materials and newspapers on his desk, chopsticks in his right hand, and a report on the military exercises held by the Kuomintang Army in Hebei Province in his left hand.Mao Zedong pulled up a chair and sat next to him, watching Zhou Enlai put down the chopsticks in his hand thoughtfully, then picked up a report on personnel changes in the Kuomintang, and flipped through it a few times: "Enlai, this time Hu Hanmin He and Xu Chongzhi can be regarded as proud. Chiang Kai-shek and Luo Yaoguo lost both sides in the fight, and Hu Hanmin took advantage of it and took the Executive Yuan into his pocket. Do you think Luo Yaoguo's power will start to decline from now on? He is now Was sent to Beijing to preside over a military exercise, will others take the opportunity to poach his corner?"
"Probably not." Zhou Enlai shook his head with certainty: "If Luo Yaoguo compromises with Chiang Kai-shek this time, then he will really start to go downhill, but he used the position of executive director to win over Hu Hanmin... Although the price Not low, but in exchange for the opportunity to unite with Hu Hanmin to suppress Chiang Kai-shek. In this way, those young officers of the Whampoa faction will not join the suppressed President Chiang. As for Hu Hanmin and Xu Chongzhi, they are outdated figures after all. , and there are many Cantonese old people around them. As the saying goes, clothes are not as good as new ones, and people are not as good as old ones. Hu Hanmin and Xu Chongzhi are not willing to give up on them..."
"Then will he take his anger out on us because of this incident?" Mao Zedong frowned deeply, and tapped his fingers on the table lightly: "Will the 'Hanguang No. trick?"
His worries were not unreasonable. During this period of time, the Kuomintang army was holding a large-scale military exercise called "Hanguang No. 1000" in Hebei Province.The announced troops include ten infantry divisions, four lightly armed divisions, two aviation divisions, and four heavy artillery brigades, with a total strength of more than 500 troops, more than [-] tanks and armored vehicles, more than [-] aircraft, and artillery More than two thousand doors!Such a large-scale army was assembled in Hebei Province, which is adjacent to the jurisdiction of the six northern provinces of the CCP, and it was at a time when the relationship between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party was deteriorating due to the "judicial and legislative power dispute".Not to mention the top leaders of the Communist Party, even the newspapers in the Kuomintang-controlled areas have published articles one after another, speculating about a surprise attack and unification by force... It doesn't sound like a good thing.
Zhou Enlai smiled bitterly: "So we had to listen to Mr. Zhang's suggestion and retry the Zuo Xiangyun case, hoping to ease the tension. Although we are not afraid of civil war and have the confidence to defeat the enemy, we are still willing to show sincerity to ease the situation !"
To have a hard top at this moment is not a matter of adhering to the principle, but a lack of flexibility.After the news of the "Hanguang Exercise" came out, Zhou Enlai keenly sensed the danger, and decisively ordered a retrial of Zuo's case. He also invited reporters from all over the country to observe the whole process, and also agreed that Zhang Shizhao, a lawyer appointed by the Ministry of Justice of the Nationalist Government, should appear in court. Defend Zuo Xiangyun.But what law will be used to convict and sentence Zuo Xiangyun has not been announced.This issue is directly related to the independence of the CCP, and the best thing to do is to persist... But the question is, can Luo Yaoguo turn a blind eye and let things get mixed up?
But when Zhou Enlai was in a dilemma, Zhang Shizhao, a lawyer sent by the national government to defend Zuo Xiangyun, proposed an unacceptable solution—to reverse the case!Yes, it is to reverse the case, because criminal trials are generally divided into two parts: conviction and sentencing.Before sentencing, it is first necessary to go through a judicial trial to determine whether the suspect is guilty of the crime.Only after confirming that the suspect is guilty, what "Criminal Law" should be considered for sentencing the criminal... And if this Zuo Xiangyun retracts his confession during the trial, overturns all his previous confessions, and other witnesses and physical evidence "disappear" , then naturally there is no way to convict, and there will be no sentencing if there is no conviction... At least in this way, the "legislative power" can be fooled while giving the national government a step down.
……
However, the matter of reversing the case for Zuo Xiangyun was far from smooth as expected, and even encountered unexpected troubles!
"I'm guilty! I'm guilty! I deserve death! I have absolutely no objection to the death penalty from the organization, and I firmly support..."
The one who said this was naturally the great embezzler Zuo Xiangyun.Maybe it was a true conscience discovery, maybe it was a misunderstanding of the meaning of the organization, or maybe it was insanity... In short, after Zuo Xiangyun heard Huang Kegong instigated him to retract his confession in court, he yelled and firmly supported the organization to shoot himself !What made Huang Kegong feel dumbfounded was that the big left-handed embezzler raised his arms and shouted the slogan "Down with Zuo Xiangyun, Zuo Xiangyun deserves to die!" Here comes the slogan!
"Zuo Xiangyun! Are you going to reverse the confession or not!" Huang Kegong raised his hand violently, making the deranged corrupt criminal stagger.
"No! Just don't!" Zuo Da, the embezzler, covered his red and swollen thin face, straightened his neck and said loudly, "I'm not afraid of death, let's see what you can do to me!"
Huang Kegong frowned, and raised his hand to hit him again, but seeing the corrupt official with a bruised nose and swollen face in front of him, he couldn't do it for a while.It's not that he sympathizes with corrupt officials, but that the court will be held in a few days. If these "secret reporters" sent by the Kuomintang take photos of him and publish them in southern newspapers, the impact will be too bad!
"Comrade Xiangyun!" Lieutenant Colonel Huang gritted his teeth and squeezed out a smile: "Now the organization needs you to retract your confession! If you don't retract your confession, the conspiracy of the Kuomintang reactionaries will succeed! You are a sinner of the party and the most powerful member of the revolutionary party." !"
"No! I won't retract the confession!" Zuo Xiangyun shook his head firmly: "Chief, you don't have to test me anymore. At that time, I will definitely not discredit the organization, even if I am shot in court, I will never They will call for injustice! Please rest assured in the organization.”
"This is not a test! It's the organization asking you to cooperate with the KMT's conspiracy! Do you understand?" Huang Kegong's face looked quite painful. Facing such a staunch proletarian embezzler, he really didn't know what to do. alright?
"How is this possible? If I retract the confession...doesn't it mean that the organization has wronged me? How can I do that kind of thing? Everything about me, Zuo Xiangyun, is given by the organization. I myself am greedy, corrupted by bourgeois ideology, pursuing enjoyment, pursuing a bourgeois way of life..."
The left big corrupt official began to criticize himself again with snot and tears.Although his tone was extremely sincere, and his attitude of pleading guilty and obeying the law was exemplary... But Huang Kegong's face became more and more livid. It seemed that there was really no way to complete this task!This guy's brain must have been flooded. He obviously didn't want to have a chance to survive. He wanted to die. Could it be that he was reluctant to waste the ordered 7.62mm bullet?
Looks like this guy is really crazy!How can I explain it to the above?I don't know how the law over there judges a lunatic?
……
"What? The suspect has gone crazy?" Zhang Shizhao came to the headquarters of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China early in the morning and heard this somewhat surprising news from Mao Zedong.
"Since this is the case..." Zhang Shizhao slowly considered his words, he thought for a while and said slowly: "This is a trouble, because according to the criminal law of the Republic of China, a lunatic cannot be held criminally responsible. That is to say, this corrupt criminal can directly Released. Although the "Criminal Code" of your six northern provinces is a reference to the "Primary Code" of the Soviet Union, there are no clear regulations in this regard. However, your party can announce that for humanitarian considerations, Zuo Xiangyun will no longer be prosecuted. Criminal responsibility... In this way, the Kuomintang can explain that you have released the suspect in accordance with the laws of the Republic of China, and everyone will have a step down. Yes! This should be the most appropriate solution at present."
Zhou En took a look at Mao Zedong. He stood there with a confident and calm look, as if he was not worried about the Kuomintang's further attack.
"Well, I think we should follow Zhang Lao's suggestion." Mao Zedong patted his chin lightly, and said loudly: "I think this is fine. The Kuomintang actually doesn't care about Zuo Xiangyun's life or death, nor does it care about being arrested by us." The life and death of other criminals. All they want is this nominal 'power of life and death'. This time Zuo Xiangyun saved his life under their interference, which is enough. Maybe they will also ask us to report the death penalty to the Supreme Court Approved. Then we have a way to deal with it. Our courts will not impose the death penalty in the future. Anyone who commits the crime of beheading will be sentenced to life imprisonment. There is not much difference between life imprisonment and death penalty!" His voice suddenly became cold and harsh: "For those people, wouldn't the death penalty be terrible? And the vast majority of our comrades are good. As long as we strengthen ideological education and guidance, I believe they can still withstand all kinds of temptations. And we can still Use methods other than the judicial and legislative systems to cleanse the team and purify the organization. For example, we can use mass movements to keep party members and cadres clear-headed and vigorous at all times... You can also use mass movements to educate the masses, As long as the masses really mobilize, those hidden villains will soon be invisible!"
"Using mass movements to educate comrades and train comrades is one way." Zhou Enlai also nodded in agreement.After all, judiciary and legislation involve national sovereignty. If the local government advocates having too much judicial and legislative power, it is easy to be misunderstood as a struggle for independence.But the mass movement is different. There are no legal issues involved here, so the central government of the Kuomintang has nothing to do with it!
"Of course, our mass movement still needs the leadership of the Party Central Committee, and the Central Committee must strictly grasp the direction of the movement." Zhou Enlai gave Mao Zedong another meaningful look: "The mass movement can only be carried out under the firm control of the Central Committee." Maximizing its positive effects while minimizing deviations and losses is a big principle that we must keep in mind!"
Mao Zedong looked slightly annoyed, but in the end he still didn't speak.It is not that the CCP did not use the power of mass movements in its past revolutionary activities.However, there are also many side effects, such as easy to lose control, easy to be aggressive, and often have a certain impact on production and life.In the current dangerous situation, if we want to use this double-edged sword to purify the organization and educate the masses, we must be cautious, and there must be no deviation.
"Xing Lao (Zhang Shizhao)." Zhou En saw that Mao Zedong had no further objections, so he turned to Zhang Shizhao: "Please go to Wuhan with Comrade Dong Biwu of our party to explain the situation of Zuo Xiangyun's madness to the Ministry of Justice of the Nationalist Government, and Inform them that all executions in the future will be reported to the Supreme Court for approval before execution."
Chapter 0662 Preparations ([-]) Military Exercises
The sound of the car was rumbling, and it was the sound of a high-horsepower internal combustion engine roaring at the same time. It felt so earth-shattering and unstoppable.Behind the sound is the most powerful armored combat unit in the world right now.They are the First Armored Division of the National Revolutionary Army!Three years after the National Revolutionary Army formed the light armored division, the real armored division finally appeared naturally.When they appear on the future Soviet battlefield, they will completely dominate the entire war!
When Luo Yaoguo stood on a high mound, with a full staff of staff, German military advisers, Polish military representatives, etc., watching the steel tiger under his command show their full power.There is a feeling of difficulty in my heart.A China with such a weak industrial base, a country that should have been in a separatist regime and on the verge of subjugation in history, is now able to produce such powerful modern weapons... Although these tanks are produced by Sino-German or Sino-US joint venture companies from.
Now such a division-level combat force powered entirely by internal combustion engines is on the field extending from the bottom of the mound.The armored units were completely out of formation. The 22-ton No. 350 A tanks formed a conical assault formation in the center of the front. These tanks used the Christie suspension system and had a strong traffic capacity. The 45-horsepower MAN diesel engine allowed them to travel at a distance of 25 kilometers. The speed is driving on the road and the cross-country speed is close to 75 kilometers per hour.The main armament of this new tank is a [-]mm infantry gun.On their two wings are groups of No. [-] light tanks. These small tanks of more than ten tons are currently the main armament of the armored forces of the National Revolutionary Army.After all, the No. [-] tank has just come off the assembly line, and only dozens of them have been trial-produced. Their performance has yet to be tested, and their quality is also very unstable, far from meeting the requirements of a large number of equipped troops.In addition to deterring the six northern provinces, this "Han Guang No. [-]" military exercise is also the main task of testing a batch of new weapons including the No. [-] tank.
Mechanized weapons such as these tanks, armored vehicles, self-propelled artillery, etc. are actually consumables that are vulnerable to damage and consumption.It is simply not feasible to put them into a protracted war without a certain output!Such an armored division of 2 people, 370 old-style No. 220 tanks and the latest No. 1932 tanks, 1000 two GM120 tracked armored vehicles, more than [-] various transportation and reconnaissance vehicles, and [-] six various bicycles. artillery.According to the estimates of the General Staff, in order for them to exert their real power in future wars, at least [-] tanks and armored vehicles of various types must be produced annually to maintain the strong combat effectiveness of armored divisions in the cruel consumption of wars.
In the future, the armored forces of the National Revolutionary Army will include five such armored divisions, which means that the output of tanks and armored vehicles must reach at least [-] units per year!If it is necessary to equip all infantry divisions with a certain number of tanks and armored vehicles, then at least a production capacity of six to seven thousand units can be maintained.In addition, larger truck production and adequate fuel supplies are required.Without the support of a huge automobile industry and petrochemical industry, China would not be able to maintain a strong mechanization force.Although China now has such a powerful armored force, it still doesn't have the industrial foundation for them to truly exert their power!
And now Luo Yaoguo knows that he still has six years at most to make the country's industrial level barely reach the level where it can fight a mechanized war.To prepare for a world war in just six years, there is obviously no time for a civil war, so using military exercises to deter opponents and force them to make concessions is the best option.
……
Although only one armored division participated in today's armored assault live ammunition drill, the momentum of nearly two thousand vehicles of various types launching an assault at the same time still makes people feel that the world is trembling!The front line of their attack is the standard defense-in-depth system of World War I carefully built by engineers.Hundreds of cannons have already fired a barrage of barrage in front of the armored assault troops. More than 200 A2A light dive bombers hung five 25kg high-explosive bombs, and they dived and fired again and again under the guidance of signal flares and radio signals fired by the armored forces.This air-ground joint combat model has been perfected after years of continuous exploration.It will also become the main mode of land warfare in the future.
After shelling and bombing, the tracks of tanks and armored vehicles ran over barbed wire and over trenches. The 75mm infantry gun and the 18mm machine gun were roaring and firing, and the roaring sound between the sky and the earth has become one.Many tanks broke down during this wave of charge, but most of them continued to charge in depth after crushing the first line.Behind them, there are the No.20 Infantry Division and the No.[-] Infantry Division that they jointly trained. Teams of infantry marched in different directions according to the plan that had been drawn up, and soon took over those who had been beaten to pieces. Fallen trenches.As the red flares representing victory kept rising, this textbook-like exercise training seemed to have achieved good results!The armored strength of the National Revolutionary Army seems to have reached another level.
The practice field was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke, and even the hillside where Luo Yaoguo was located could smell the choking smell, which made the Chinese and German military officers watching the battle feel like they were on the front line.The expressions on everyone's faces were extremely excited, and some people were panting heavily, as if they had really boarded a tank and led thousands of troops to Moscow!An Sihua was standing next to Luo Yaoguo, holding the binoculars in his hands and never putting them down. He seemed to have caught every detail of the entire exercise, and he was still muttering to himself: "Not bad, not bad... Number two The tank is quite ideal, and it seems that it can be used in the next war... If there is a bigger, stronger, and more powerful Panzer III to match it. Coupled with more advanced dive bombers and level Bombers...Moreover, the three countries of China, Germany and Poland can still cooperate well, with 800 million troops, [-] tanks, and [-] planes, attacking the Soviet Union from east to west...should be able to completely destroy this country in a short period of time! Then there is Britain and France...there may be the United States behind them! They should all be defeated."
Hearing that An Sihua said that he wanted to fight the United States, Luo Yaoguo glanced at General An beside him with undisguised uneasiness. Of course he knew that General An was his trump card and the only one who could win the war against the Soviet Union in the future. A person who confronted the Soviet Union's Zhukov, Rokossovsky, Vasilevsky and other generation of famous marshals on the front line.However, Cigong's strategic vision seems to be far inferior to his tactical literacy and battlefield feeling.
In Luo Yaoguo's mind, the ideal post-war situation is that China, the United States, and Germany stand side by side, rather than a confrontation between China and Germany or China and the United States.Because with China's strength, there is no way to confront the United States or Germany, which has dominated Europe, after the war.Only when China, the United States, and Germany stage a "Three Kingdoms" can China win a period of stable development.His current thoughts must not only consider how to win the world war and maximize China's interests, but also take into account the post-war world layout, so that China can truly enjoy the fruits of victory with peace of mind after winning the war.Sometimes I feel that I think too much at once, but I have to think about all this.He knew what he wanted, and he had no doubt that he would be able to achieve this goal in the end - to restore China's international status in history, to establish a new order of the Eastern world with China at its core, and to create a world empire belonging to China !
With the end of the armored assault drill, there were buzzing voices of commentary on the hillside.At this time, dozens of Junkers J52/3m transport planes flew slowly from the sky in a neat formation.Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted by these ugly planes with three engines.
At this time, a large number of colorful small flowers suddenly appeared in the blue sky. The small flowers fluttered slowly in the sky, elegant and beautiful. When everyone looked closely, they found a series of figures jumping out from the belly of the aircraft, and then bloomed into these Small flowers, slowly, all kinds of small flowers are densely covering the sky.
The officers on the hillside looked at the little flowers in the sky stupidly. Of course they knew what those were, but they were still stunned at this moment.The parachute drill was kept completely secret before. Even the paratrooper unit was formed and trained in complete secrecy. Except for a few high-level staff of the General Staff and the Ministry of the Army, no one else knew that there was a parachute. Such a troop doesn't know this kind of attack method that descends from the sky.
Luo Yaoguo pointed to the parachutes that were falling slowly on the hillside and said with a smile: "This fell from the sky, you really became a heavenly soldier!" There was a burst of approving laughter from the side.There is also a lot of envy mixed in.Airborne troops are still a brand-new branch at the moment, and only the Soviet Union has secretly established this branch in the world.But the outside world didn't know it, so everyone here, including the German consultants and Polish military representatives who watched the exercise, thought that this paratrooper regiment that fell from the sky was the world's first airborne force.
The colorful little flowers in the sky quickly flew down to the ground, and soon landed on the open space around the hillside.A jeep designed and manufactured by Ford China Co., Ltd. drove towards the paratrooper landing field quickly. Several figures jumped into the car and drove towards the hillside where Luo Yaoguo was located.These people are the three chief officers and several staff members of this airborne force, Lieutenant General Sun Liren, the commander of the airborne force, Major General Huang Hui, the commander of the airborne brigade, and Colonel Ren Tianmin, the chief of staff.
The three chief officers quickly came in front of Luo Yaoguo. It seemed that this airborne operation was very successful, and the three of them couldn't hide their smiles.He immediately saluted Luo Yaoguo, Bai Chongxi An Sihua and other senior officials, "Report to the Assistant Commander Gao! The airborne drill of the first regiment of the First Airborne Brigade has been completed. Please comment and give instructions to the Assistant Commander and everyone!"
Luo Yaoguo beckoned to Sun Liren: "Fumin, you did a great job. In such a short period of time, you pulled up the paratroopers and brought out a paratrooper regiment. But this is far from our final requirement. In future wars, your airborne troops will undertake the most arduous missions. Therefore, the Airborne Forces Command must continue to work hard, not only to expand the size of the airborne troops, strengthen the training of the airborne troops, but also to explore new tactics for the airborne troops. Research and develop new types of lightweight heavy weapons that are suitable for airborne combat... Fumin, your airborne troops may be used in several important combat plans formulated by the General Staff in the future, so you should also participate. Also, if you airborne If soldiers have any special requirements for weapons and equipment, they can submit them to the General Staff, and the Armament Department will fully cooperate."
After hearing these words, a trace of excitement flashed across Sun Liren's face.Of course he knew that the "future war" referred to the war to destroy the Soviet Union!In such an offensive operation that was expected to involve 800 million people, his little paratroopers had to undertake the most difficult mission!Just imagining what this most difficult mission is, it will make people excited... Could it be parachuting into Moscow and capturing Stalin alive! ?
……
Soviet Far East, Vladivostok Fortress.
Although it is already the hottest time of summer, the coastal region of the Far East of the Soviet Union, which is located in high latitudes, has the most pleasant climate of the year.When the fat Aso Taemon got off the boat, even though he had already put on a long woolen coat, he still felt a little cold.On the pier, several Japanese military officers and a good-looking half-race beauty with a gloomy expression were already waiting for him.Those officers are all middle- and lower-level officers of the Japanese Military Advisory Group in Vladivostok. Of course, that beauty is Miss Nagata Isa, and now she is the business representative of Lingnan Porcelain Company in Vladivostok!Specially responsible for cooperating with Japanese businessmen to develop uranium mines in the Kolyma Mountains of the Soviet Union.
And the Japanese businessman who cooperated with her was Taemon Aso, the eldest son of Taiji Aso, the chairman of the Japan Carbon Carbon Iron Industry Federation, and the heir of the wealthy Aso family in Kyushu.By the way, in another time and space, Taro Aso, who once served as the Prime Minister of Japan, is a descendant of this Aso family and is the nephew of Taemon Aso, but he has not yet been born.
The Aso family is a Japanese mining giant with operations in mainland Japan, North Korea, and Northeast China.Of course, all the business in the Northeast has been completely lost at the moment. In the 9.18 war, the Aso family was also one of the Japanese chaebols who suffered the most losses.So now the Aso family had no choice but to do more unreasonable things to make up for the loss!
Just when the Aso father and son were wondering where there was a business that would be harmful to nature, Nagata Tieshan, the deputy chief of the Japanese Army Staff Headquarters, came to the door and introduced to their family a man who ran a uranium mine in the Soviet Union. Chance!After looking through the periodic table of chemical elements several times and finally figuring out what uranium is, Yoshita Aso decisively decided to participate in this big business, and sent his eldest son to the war-torn fortress of Vladivostok.
