Xu Rui went north to Kulun to negotiate with the Soviets about reopening the Baotou Tea Road. Thanks to Chairman Chiang's push, it was already known throughout China, so it was not surprising that the Japanese secret service knew about it. However, the Japanese secret service
It is absolutely impossible for the agency to grasp the details.
Because this time, the only manpower following Xu Rui to go north to Kulun, apart from Ulantoya, the Russian translator of the Yan'an faction, were only eighteen snipers led by Zhuan Shanbao. Under such circumstances, let alone the little Japs, there was no way to get in.
Even Fu Zuoyi and Chairman Chiang Kai-shek could only stare.
Not to mention, both Fu Zuoyi and Chairman Chiang wanted to put spies around Xu Rui.
Although Fu Zuoyi didn't believe that Xu Rui could really succeed in negotiating, he still kept an extra thought, thinking that if Xu Rui could succeed in negotiating, it would definitely be a huge benefit. Of course, such a huge benefit would not
If Xu Rui can be monopolized, their 35th Army must get a share of the pie.
Therefore, Fu Zuoyi proposed that this negotiation must have his representative as the provincial chairman.
Fu Zuoyi's point of view seems quite reasonable. In any case, he is the provincial chairman of Suiyuan Province. As the second largest city in Suiyuan Province, Baotou is theoretically under his control. Now the business community of Baotou has to negotiate with the Soviet Union for important matters.
How could he, the chairman of Suiyuan Province, not get involved in opening a tea road?
But unfortunately, Xu Rui doesn't play according to the routine at all.
Xu Rui pushed Fu Zuoyi back with just one word.
Xu Rui said this to the representative sent by Fu Zuoyi to Baotou: "If Chief Fu thinks he can do it, he can directly negotiate with the Soviets. If he thinks it can't be done, then don't make trouble!"
The representatives sent by Fu Zuoyi could only run back to Sui in despair.
After Fu Zuoyi found out, he had nothing to do with Xu Rui.
After all, they have been in contact with each other for a long time, and Fu Zuoyi already has an understanding of Xu Rui's character.
Compared to Fu Zuoyi, Chairman Chiang did not think about seeking any benefits from the Baotou Tea Road, because he did not think that Xu Rui could really succeed in the negotiation. However, the old man still gave the nanny an order through Boss Dai, instructing her to try her best.
Try to go north with Xu Rui, firstly, to take the opportunity to get close to Xu Rui, and secondly, to understand the contents of Xu Rui's negotiations with the Soviet Union.
Chairman Chiang did not believe that Xu Rui or the CCP would only discuss the Baotou Tea Road with the Soviets.
After Xiang Yingxin received the instructions from Boss Dai, she did fight for it, but it was to no avail.
…
Let’s talk about Xu Rui again. After half a month of long and hard march, Xu Rui finally arrived near Cullen before the second heavy snowfall in November. His luck was pretty good. Xu Rui and his party almost arrived just now.
When we arrived in Kulun, heavy snow fell one after another, and soon it accumulated to a depth of more than half a meter.
Di Gua has been living in Shanghai since she was a child. She has never seen such heavy snow before and exclaimed in amazement: "Oh my god, why is this snow so heavy? Anyone else would be buried under it."
"What kind of snow is this?" Ulantoya, who grew up on the Mongolian grassland, shook her head and said, "The white snow is so powerful. It accumulates as high as a house. The yurts on the grassland are all buried. Remember, when I
When I was nine years old, there was a white snow on the Hulunbuir Prairie, and the snow was really heavy."
"It's snowing as high as a room?" Digua was stunned after hearing this, "How can we go out then?"
"There was no way to go out." Ulantoya shook her head, and the expression on her face suddenly dimmed. "That winter, almost all the cattle and sheep on the grassland froze to death, and many herdsmen also starved to death."
Ulantoya shed tears sadly, and the atmosphere in the entire team began to become solemn.
After half a month of contact, the lively and cheerful Ulantoya quickly won the favor of the Langya team members. Many Langya team members expressed their love to Ulantoya overtly and secretly. Unfortunately, Ulantoya was indifferent to this.
, but the young men of Langya Brigade did not give up easily because of this.
In order to break the dull atmosphere, Zou Chao said: "Toya, can I sing you a song?"
"Okay, okay." Ulantoya immediately turned from sadness to joy, "But I can't sing the army song anymore."
A look of astonishment immediately appeared on Zou Chao's face, because in the past half month, he had been singing the army military song over and over again. Wulan Tuoya's ears felt numb, and he was about to vomit from singing. However, except for this army military song,
, he didn’t know any other songs, and Zou Chao suddenly hated himself. Why didn’t he learn more songs when he was in the Central Military Academy?
Digua immediately lost no time and said: "Sister Toya, can I sing you a night in Shanghai?"
"Okay." Ulantoya immediately turned back from the horse and looked at the sweet potatoes expectantly.
Digua cleared her throat and started humming: "Night Shanghai, Night Shanghai, you are a city that never sleeps; the lights are on, the cars are buzzing, and there is singing and dancing; I see her with a smiling face, but who knows that she is depressed inside..."
Sweet potato has grown up surrounded by feasting and feasting, so don’t be too familiar with these melodious sounds.
Although Ulantoya is a progressive young woman, this does not prevent her from liking music.
Sweet potato sang enthusiastically, and Wulan Tuoya listened with rapt attention. Seeing that Wulan Tuoya's beautiful eyes were all focused on sweet potato, Zou Chao and those Lang Ya who liked her felt very disappointed. Apart from the disappointment, a
He comforted himself in his heart, saying that Sweet Potato is just a little kid, and his hair has not even grown, so he still has a chance.
Leng Tiefeng couldn't listen anymore and scolded: "What the hell are you singing?"
Sweet Potato did not dare to sing any more, and Wulan Tuoya also made a cute face at Sweet Potato.
Leng Tiefeng glanced at everyone and said with a dark face: "Today I will teach you a really good song. There is a reason for the song's title. Now, listen to me sing it again."
In fact, Xu Rui has taught this song a long time ago, and most of the earliest Langya team members can sing it. However, Xu Rui has not taught it again since the Langya team was reorganized, so the team members who joined later can hardly sing it, and now this song
Most of the first batch of team members joined later, so basically they don't know how to do it.
Leng Tiefeng cleared his throat and started singing.
There is a truth that goes without saying,
A warrior should go to the battlefield.
If it is a tiger, it should walk in the mountains.
If it's a dragon, it should make waves in the ocean.
Who doesn’t have a father?
Who doesn’t have a mother?
Who doesn’t care about relatives?
As long as the bugle sounds,
Let's put everything aside.
There is a truth that goes without saying,
A warrior should go to the battlefield.
Good steel should be used to make sharp swords,
A good soldier should fight hard.
who has no love,
Who has no love,
A good man who loves his family and country.
As long as the motherland calls,
Sing a war song and run forward.
At the beginning, only two veteran team members, Zhuan Shan Bao and Han Feng, sang along, but after singing twice, new team members such as Zou Chao and Wang Bin also sang along. In the loud and majestic singing, the team moved all the way.
We moved forward and finally arrived in Cullen before dark.
…
At the same time, Zhukov had already arrived at Cullen first.
However, Zhukov did not plan to show up in person right away, but decided to send his deputy to receive Xu Rui first.
Zhukov did this entirely out of his inner arrogance, and it is not unique to him.
In modern times, especially after the Industrial Revolution, Western civilization quickly replaced the ancient Chinese civilization and became the most powerful civilization in the world. In order to make Western civilization look more glamorous, the Western literary and art circles stole a large number of the achievements of Arab civilization and Chinese civilization.
, repackaged and claimed to be our own work.
Because time was too short and there was no time for perfect packaging, the Western literary and art circles even made big jokes. For example, Aristotle was involved in ethics, metaphysics, psychology, economics, theology, and politics.
Rhetoric, natural science, education, poetry, customs and Athenian law and many other disciplines.
Someone has made precise calculations. Based on the teaching level at that time, it would take at least more than three hundred years for a person to learn all the knowledge in Aristotle from the time he was born. What's more, Aristotle still had to spare time.
Enough time to write a three-million-word masterpiece. This is an academic work that requires repeated research and even repeated arguments. It is not like a novel that can be written instantly. In contrast, Sima Qian wrote a historical record of 400,000 words, but it was enough.
It took eighteen years.
The same example is Shakespeare, another all-rounder who knew many subjects!
In short, the Western literary and artistic circles have gone to great lengths to package up the pale Western civilization, without even showing any shame.
However, the effect is also very significant. Such forgery and packaging have greatly improved the self-confidence of Westerners. In less than three hundred years, Westerners can already look down upon Easterners.
Unlike three hundred years ago, such as the time of Marco Polo, when Westerners came to the East, they brought the mentality of pilgrimage and worship.
Zhukov was deeply influenced by Western civilization and a typical East Slav.
Therefore, from the bottom of his heart, Zhukov also extremely despised Chinese civilization and Chinese people. Of course, out of so-called self-cultivation, he rarely showed it openly in front of others.
However, once the time is right, this deep-seated arrogance will immediately emerge.
For example, now, Zhukov has decided to send his adjutant to contact Xu Rui first. If Xu Rui just wants to gain benefits from the Soviet government, then he will be sent away directly. If Xu Rui can really make a constructive proposal, he can
He would directly come forward to negotiate with the Far Eastern Front Army if he had good suggestions.
After settling in the only foreign-related hotel in Kulon, Zhukov called his adjutant in front of him and said: "Comrade Shakhsky, count the time, our Chinese friends should have arrived. You will greet them on my behalf. By the way,
Find a few families of herdsmen in the suburbs, settle them down, and then make initial contact with them."
Adjutant Shakhsky was also a white man and was very satisfied with Zhukov's arrangement. He nodded and said: "Okay, I will take people to greet him right away."
