Back to the Republic of China as a commander

Chapter 435 Sharpening the Knife

The sensational impeachment case was postponed to October [-], which made Sun Wen and the KMT feel very frustrated. Although they have little experience in political struggle, they know what long nights and dreams are.But Sun Wen didn't know what to do. After all, he was the chairman of the national government without an army.Originally, there was a part-time job as the vice chairman of the military committee, but this position was given a kickback when Wang Longzhong returned it to the chairman of the national government.

As for the representatives of the National Congress, they are also happy to postpone the vote on the impeachment case. In fact, these congressmen understand what democracy is better than the idealists of the Kuomintang.Democracy is the same as democracy in essence, and it is also based on power.It's just that what the democratic system pursues is one-sided absolute power, while democracy pursues the balance of power.The former is simple and efficient, while the latter is troublesome and procrastinating.But anyone with a normal IQ will choose democracy, because only in a society with a balance of power can human beings have the qualifications to talk about dignity and freedom.

So although everyone knows that the current power is not a real balance, it is more like a hypocritical balance that Wang Zhenyu donates according to his personal political will and preferences.But no matter how bad it is, it’s better than nothing. Anyway, the members of the two chambers of the National Congress are now enjoying the days of discussing and voting on each bill. .Many congressmen who have experienced the Yuan Shikai era even said that this is already a real democracy, although Wang Zhenyu believes that this is only the form of democracy rather than the essence.Those who engage in politics are not fools. The Kuomintang’s impeachment case at this time is almost to use the entire national government to fight against the military dictator Wang Zhenyu. No matter how eager the power is, the congressmen will not follow suit. After all, power is the most real. Power, and the others are bullshit no matter how nicely they are said.So as soon as Liang Qichao proposed to follow the normal procedure, these grandsons immediately raised their hands in agreement, and if it can be delayed for a day, even the Kuomintang members are no exception.No wonder the Kuomintang will lose to the mainland in history. It has no organizational discipline at all, and it doesn't take Sun Wen, a great leader, a great helmsman, and a great mentor at all.In addition, there is another factor. According to the original agreement on the establishment of the National Government, next year will be the year of the official general election. At that time, the entire power structure in Nanjing will be reshuffled. It is estimated that Zhang Taiyan will never appear again. official position.It can be said that the future democratically elected government will be a government with clear ruling and opposition parties.

Although everyone thinks that Wang Zhenyu is not a democrat, it is undeniable that this person holds the greatest power and influence of the National Government.He doesn't even need to dispatch the army, just using the China Development Corporation under his control can determine the direction of political support for most companies.After all, those millions of industrial workers were easily fooled by their superiors when they voted.This is not counting the large ticket warehouse of the army, which has expanded to a size of one million people.More importantly, although the county is governed by the people at the local level, the vested interests in almost every county regard Wang Zhenyu as the protector of this system.So those peasants who don’t even know what the provincial capital looks like, let alone Nanjing, go as far as the farthest in their lives, they will know whom to vote for and pat their heads.Why were the farmers in the Huguang area so brave in killing Changmao back then? It is reasonable to say that the Changmao that would be given to them had no conflict with them. They, God!Therefore, Yuan Shikai's statement that the quality of the people is too low is still a bit reasonable, but the second half of the sentence is not suitable for democracy, which is a bit far-fetched. Is there an inevitable connection between the two?Pulling away, I still set my sights on Russia.

In distant Omsk, the capital of Kolchak, the All-Russian commander-in-chief, there is no depression in Moscow and St. Petersburg's wartime riots, and there is no trace of war. The lights are feasting and the atmosphere is peaceful.

In a bar not too far from Kolchak's mansion, two inconspicuous young men with oriental faces were drinking and chatting in a corner of the bar.These two people have a common occupation, they are senior agents of the State Security Bureau of the Nationalist Government: Lieutenant Colonel Dian Ao and Lieutenant Colonel Liu Mohan. They are currently the heads of two spy teams operating in Russia. This is their first Secondary connector.

Lieutenant Colonel Dian Ao, a native of Fuyuan, Yunnan, was born in the military intelligence system. Although he is only 'years old, he is an old spy with six years of experience. He joined the Military Intelligence Bureau in Anjiang in 1913. After training, he was sent to Beijing to carry out a half-year latent mission. During this period, he neither participated in the work of saving the National Assembly with iron and blood, nor participated in the bloodbath of the Law Enforcement Office of Mingdong Jingshi.But he did a very surprising thing. In just half a year, this guy who was lurking as the foreman at the Liuguo Hotel actually learned fluent Russian. Contribution (well, driving Yang Du to meet Xu Shuzheng) was promoted to lieutenant colonel, and this time he was sent to Omsk because he could speak Russian.

Liu Mohan's qualifications are a little worse than Dian Ao's, and his background is not pure, neither from the Party Affairs Investigation Department, nor from the direct line of the military intelligence system.Before he joined Guoan, he was a member of the underworld. This young man from Jinhua, Zhejiang Province was originally a follower of Du Yuesheng's Hengshe sect. He had been in the underworld for ten years since he was 14 years old when he worshiped the old man.At first, because he was not allowed to be with people, and the Russian Concession itself was not very good, it was not comparable to the French Concession, so he was not an ordinary mess. Later, he took refuge in Du Yuesheng, a rogue tycoon in the French Concession who suddenly rose during the Revolution of [-]. It's different.Du Yuesheng also needed someone familiar with the situation in the Russian Concession to expand his business, and Liu Mohan was very lucky to be supported.It's a pity that the blessing of misfortune depends on the blessing of misfortune. Liu Mohan, who wants to be the big boss, has bad luck. His business is very mediocre. The only advantage is that he is very good at dealing with Russians.In the sixth year of the Republic of China, the National Security Bureau was ordered to prepare for the construction of the Far East Station, and needed excellent Russian contacts, so Liu Mohan was chosen out of nowhere.At first Liu Mohan refused to agree, but then he fainted when a major's hat was thrown at him. You must know that his ancestors had never been an official, and they were tenants for generations, so he joined the group without hesitation, and then He was sent to Siberia to blow the cold wind. . .

"Is the work going well?" It was Liu Mohan who had just arrived in Omux who asked the question.

Dian Ao shook his head: "It's still in progress. I haven't been here for long. The previous five groups have not gained trust from Kolchak. This Russian admiral is very cautious and seems to be born with foreign forces. Contradictory. It's your luck, kid, to actually settle that Central Asian country for Yushuai. This time, one of the great achievements cannot be escaped. Tell me, what do you say when the higher-ups sent you to Omx? Is there any task to hand in? give to me?"

Liu Mohan was not in a hurry to answer Dian Ao's question. Instead, he lowered his head and took a sip of coffee, then looked around and said, "It's the Arash Autonomous Republic. It's really easy and easy, but there are still problems in the follow-up. I was ordered to go back to Orenburg to continue my mission. Whether this land can finally be returned to our motherland is still a big question mark. It’s far away, Chief Lian, I want to know about Omsk and Gore How is Chuck doing recently?"

Dian Ao shook his head again, then stuffed a medium-rare steak into his mouth, chewed it for a long time before swallowing it, and then said: "All appearances are false, Kolchak's army After being defeated by the so-called Red Army on the Volga River in April, they have been defeated again and again. Don’t look at this Omks who seems to be feasting and feasting at the moment, but is actually panicked, waiting to see General Kolchak turn the tide of the battle. However, according to From observation and experience, it's very difficult to achieve that."

"No way, I saw it at the train station just now. The supplies aided by the British and French allied countries were pulled over one wagon after another. How could they not win?" Liu Mohan asked with a puzzled brow.

Diao finally swallowed the whole steak, picked up a glass of Volga and took a sip, holding back the bitterness in his throat and said: "No, giving more weapons and ammunition is nonsense, they don't have faith, or they don't want to Sacrifice for your beliefs, even at this time of war, you still fantasize about peace. Those Bolsheviks are different. Just like the Muslims in history, they either believe in me or die. In this case, how can Kolchak and the others be possible? Winning? In addition, I think Yushuai needs to act quickly and prepare for war, otherwise we will probably have nothing to do with us in Central Asia, this is by no means alarmist."

Liu Mohan nodded, took out a cigarette and lit it: "Then your next task is also simple. The higher-ups have no intention of interfering in the Russian Civil War, and only want to seek benefits from the Russian Civil War. Moreover, their focus is the same as that of the Japanese. Not the same. The Japanese are looking at the batch of gold from Kolchak, but the Russians under Kolchak are what they want. According to the survey, there are more than 100 million Russian middle-class people here, and they are educated and educated. Thought has technology, once it is driven out of Russia by the Bolsheviks, it can be used by me in the future. The plan of the Northwest Station is to resettle these people in Xinjiang, so that the future industrialization of the Northwest will be greatly accelerated."

Dian Ao thought for a while: "Understood, but Kolchak is a chauvinist, and we may not be able to do his work well, so we still have to prepare. I will try my best to meet Kolchak. As for the relationship, we’d better put some effort into ordinary Russian people and do some secret propaganda, it’s a dangerous thing to put hope on Kolchak alone.”

Liu Mohan drank the last sip of coffee, nodded, picked up the top hat, put it on his head, and left. . .
