1932: Playing with the Japanese Communist Party with a doll

With that, UMP45 flipped up out of the window and disappeared again.

Xu Xigen didn't dare to look, let alone have any evil thoughts, but he slept soundly that night.

The next morning, despite his injuries, he quickly set out to take action. In just one day, he had accurately deduced Wang Jingwei's temporary residence in Wuhan from the conversations of several spies. Honestly, this guy was quite capable, and his communication skills were so strong that one couldn't help but feel regretful - why did he betray the revolution?

"This place, right? I see."

Just like before, UMP45 climbed in through the window in the dead of night. After obtaining intelligence, he was about to leave. Xu Xigen couldn't help but ask, "Special Envoy Ma... Are you going to kill him?"

"Haha, this is not something you should inquire about. Just stay in the Kuomintang, don't do anything that harms the Communist Party, and don't leak my information. I will come to you again when I have time." After saying that, she climbed out of the window again, and climbed over the eaves and walls between buildings, heading towards Wang Jingwei's temporary residence in Wuhan.

Humanoids are not everything.

Especially when history has been changed.

Wang Jingwei, a former assassin, was extremely secretive about his itinerary and whereabouts. There's no record of them in the archives, so we can only investigate on the spot. As for the fate of the traitor Xu Xigen...

At the moment, he hasn't caused as much damage as he did in history, so let's just keep him as a thorn in the side of the KMT! History is already a mess anyway, so I don't need this little bit of help.

Anyway, the commander authorized me to play around before he left.

Then I'll just play around!

Looking at the small villa in the darkness, scanning the several snoring heat-generating bodies, UMP45's lips curled up slightly. She quietly sneaked in and saw the hot man still sleeping. At this time, the President of the Executive Yuan and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Nationalist Government, the future number one traitor of China...

Tsk, she doesn't look that good actually, much uglier than the Commander.

UMP45 curled her lips and pulled out a small knife, which emitted a faint cold light.

The next morning, Wang Jingwei felt a tingling sensation on his neck. He woke up in a daze and subconsciously touched it, only to feel a few hairs. He immediately sighed in his heart, thinking that he was losing his hair again.

I am really worried about the future of the party and the country, and for the peace between China and Japan.

I hope that the Sino-Japanese Armistice Agreement can be signed smoothly and that the Communist Party can be crushed with all our strength! After thinking for a while, Wang Jingwei touched it again and immediately found something wrong. Why did I lose so much hair today?

This time, he touched his head, a clear doubt flashed in his eyes, and he touched it again; then, a man who was nearly 50 years old suddenly jumped up from the bed!

What about hair?

Where's my hair!!

Damn it, why is my hair gone?! "Come..."

Just as he was about to call the guards, Wang Jingwei quickly shut up, ran to the mirror, and nearly smashed it with one punch! Because, not only was his hair gone, but his eyebrows and beard had also been shaved clean, leaving him with a head even balder than Chiang Kai-shek! Worst of all, someone had even written a line of small words on his forehead, backwards (it would be right side up in the mirror):

Cooperate well with the CCP and meet all their demands, otherwise it will be Kang's infiltration method next time.

Although he did not understand what "Kang's infiltration method" was, Wang Jingwei, who had been unaware of this "head-shaving incident" from beginning to end, felt a huge fear in his heart.

Today they can sneak in and shave my hair, tomorrow they can chop it off...

Soon after, Wang Jingwei appeared in public with a brand new look. When the astonished crowd asked him about his condition, he said passionately: "When I woke up this morning, I felt deeply the hardship of the people and the delay in the arrival of peace. Therefore, I shaved my head to show my determination..."

"As long as the country is not strong and the people are not rich, I will not grow my hair or eyebrows..."

When the news reached Luoyang, Henan, the temporary capital of the Nationalist Government, some people sighed, some praised, and some cursed:

"Damn it!"

Plagiarism, this is plagiarism!

172 The Nationalist Army's Bamboo Scam

UMP45, who had temporarily guest-starred as a hairdresser and eyebrow trimmer, leisurely returned to Xinji, Henan. Li Desheng and others, who had been anxiously waiting for a long time, immediately came to greet him:

"Comrade Ma Shiwu, you..."

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay. How could I be in trouble? Comrade Xiang Qian and the others are all resting. Are you clear about everything?"

"Yes!"

Thinking of the report from Xu Kuang and others, Li Desheng angrily slammed his palm:

"Another traitor!"

Because so many people died at the scene, and because Yu Maohuai had never been seen before and his personal information was not in the database, even UMP45 was unaware that another member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China had been beaten to death.

difficult clam;

But in this day and age, it is actually "understandable";

Few people, including the Communist Party itself, believed that this party could truly conquer the world;

Communist Party members do have stronger faith than the average person, especially Kuomintang members, but no one can deny that there are some opportunists and a speculative mentality among them. "Comrade Li Desheng, I need to report to you about Xu Xigen..."

After hearing UMP45's thoughts, Li Desheng was silent for a moment before confirming, "You want to develop him into a thorn in our side within the Kuomintang? He's a traitor." "As long as it benefits the revolution and doesn't violate principles and bottom lines, even traitors can be used!" "Is this what your commander thinks?"

"Uh... no, it's just my personal opinion... Of course, I'm just making a suggestion. It's up to you whether you want to do it or not."

"..."

After thinking for a while, Li Desheng slowly nodded:

"Okay, I'll leave this person to you to handle. I won't ask about the details."

Unconsciously, he had subconsciously treated UMP45 as one of the CCP's own, and gave orders with complete ease. "Hey? Leave it to me?"

“He’s only afraid of you, right?”

"...Okay... Oh, there's one more thing, about Wang Jingwei..." "...Pfft!!"

After hearing this, Li Desheng almost spit out his tea. What the hell?

They shaved Wang Jingwei's head and threatened him to cooperate with the CCP?? This... this...

Comrades of the World Revolutionary Party, are all your personalities so eccentric?

Li Desheng was a bit amused, but he didn't have any negative thoughts about UMP45. At least she was just playing around and didn't kill Wang Jingwei, right?

"Intelligence work has three tasks and one prohibition";

The regulations regarding "no seduction, no bribery, no assassination" are all good things...

Li Desheng had no idea that UMP45 was simply not interested in killing people, and it was not a matter of principle at all; if the commander had given the order, Wang Jingwei would have been chopped into pieces and made into a sauce.

Of course, Mark wasn't one for assassinations; he preferred open killings. But back to the point.

UMP45's words and her "nonsense" suddenly reminded Li Desheng of someone, and he had an idea: "Comrade Shiwu, what do you say? How about we take this opportunity to get some more benefits from the Kuomintang?" "Hmm?"

Not long after, a prisoner was brought before Li Desheng and others: Yue Weijun, the Kuomintang general who was captured in the "Shuangqiao Town Battle".

That's right, even though the Red Fourth Front Army had obtained a lot of gasoline and silver from this guy, he was still imprisoned in Xinji because Zhang Guotao originally planned to squeeze out all the value of Yue Weijun and then kill him.

However, now that Chairman Zhang is in trouble, it is Chairman Li's turn to exploit him;

Having two successive presidents serve one person, how could this be considered a small blessing?

Commander Yue himself did not think he was lucky. After being brought in, he asked with a bitter face: "Zijing, you have locked me up for a year, right? When will you release me?" He did not know Li Desheng, so he asked Xu Xiangqian.

"This is our Chairman Li Desheng. He's the one who wants to talk to you today." "Chairman Li?"

Yue Weijun was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly realized what was happening and said in disbelief: "Li Desheng? Why are you in Hubei and Henan? Aren't you in Jiangxi?" It turned out that what he heard from a few communists a few days ago was true! Li Desheng actually came to Hubei, Henan and Anhui!

What on earth happened in the Communist army? Why did such a major personnel reshuffle occur? Where was Zhang Guotao?

"Don't ask about these things, Commander Yue." Li Desheng said coldly:

"I'm just asking you, when will the 10 military uniforms you promised be delivered?"

After being captured, Yue Weijun begged for mercy, hoping that the Red Army would spare his life. He agreed to any conditions. How could he let go of this fat sheep that was offered to him?

In addition, Xu Xiangqian was not willing to kill his old superior, so after discussion, the Red Fourth Front Army gave Yue Weijun a long list, requesting Chiang Kai-shek's army to send urgently needed supplies such as military uniforms, ammunition, and medicines.

Because Yue Weijun was considered a "revolutionary predecessor" with great experience and was really good to his subordinates, and because of some political considerations, Chiang Kai-shek's army actually agreed.

As a result, 10 sets of military uniforms, 9 silver dollars, 100 worth of medicine, and nearly 1 million rounds of ammunition were quickly delivered, greatly alleviating the difficulties faced by the Hubei-Henan-Anhui base area and the Red Fourth Front Army. This is also one of the important reasons why the Red Fourth Front Army was much better equipped than the Central Red Army in all aspects.

However, Xu Xiangqian initially requested 20 sets of military uniforms. Aren't there still 10 sets left?

So, Li Desheng took advantage of this excuse to make a fuss.

"Li... Chairman Li, didn't we agree that the remaining 10 sets will be paid to you after I am released?" "After I release you, will you still give us the things?"

Li Desheng shook his head and said:

"I really have nothing to say about the credibility of your Kuomintang."

Yue Weijun was speechless.

This is the point they have argued about the most over the past year or so.

Chiang Kai-shek's army insisted on releasing the prisoners before delivering the remaining 10 sets (in fact, it was probably intended to renege on the debt);

However, the Red Army insisted that the prisoners would not be released until the remaining 10 sets were paid for (actually they wanted a few more).

So the two sides came to a stalemate.

Deep down, Yue Weijun didn't really believe in the integrity of the Nationalist Army, but could a captured Nationalist Army general say that?

Meanwhile, Li, Yue, and Xu, among others, were unaware that, historically, Zhang Guotao ultimately chose to "kill" Yue Weijun after failing to gain further benefits. This incident had a profoundly negative impact, not only undermining the Red Army's tradition of not killing prisoners but also causing more warlords to believe the Red Army was untrustworthy, leading to increased hostility. (The case of Zhang Huizan doesn't count; that bastard had committed so many evil deeds that the people unanimously demanded his death.)

Now that the Hubei-Henan-Anhui base area was under the control of Li Desheng, he would naturally not do such a short-sighted and foolish thing:

"We Communists are determined to keep our word. As long as the remaining 10 sets of military uniforms are delivered, we will release you immediately." At this time, Kuang Jixun interrupted:

"Chairman, I think 100,000 sets alone are not enough. This guy has been imprisoned here for a year and has eaten up so much of our food. We need at least another 100,000 sets." "We agreed on 100,000 sets, so that's 100,000 sets!"

Li Desheng waved his hand:

"We Communists cannot..." "Chairman!"

Zeng Zhongsheng quickly interrupted and followed up with "persuasion"∵:

"I also think that we can't let him go so easily. He's been dragging us down for so long, he's just teasing us!" "That's right! Even if you don't want the uniforms, you have to at least get another division's worth of ammunition! Otherwise, kill him!" "Yes! Kill him! Kill him!"

The room erupted in clamor, with a group of middle and senior military officers shouting in a raucous manner that they wanted Yue Weijun killed. Under this "pressure," Li Desheng seemed extremely embarrassed:

"Commander Yue, you've seen that our cadres are very dissatisfied with the Kuomintang's delay..."

What a delay!

It's because you guys won't let him go!

Yue Weijun grumbled in his heart but didn't dare to say it out loud.

When he was young, he dared to fight, kill and charge, but now he is old, he just wants to live. Xu Xiangqian hesitated for a few seconds and started to persuade:

"Old Commander, Chairman Li is right. How about... you write another letter to urge them?"

"How about this, Commander Yue, we really don't need another 10 sets of military uniforms, but we can exchange them for other things, such as munitions..." Li Desheng blushed slightly and pretended to be nonchalant.

"We can arrange a location. You can bring the things we want over here, and we'll take you there. We'll pay you and we'll deliver the goods. What do you think?"

... "

I'm not a commodity...

Under the guidance of Li Desheng and others and the threats of some "bandit officers", Yue Weijun dazedly exchanged his military uniform for more conditions and wrote a personal letter. Soon, this letter and another letter were sent to Wuhan.

Upon learning the letter was from the Red Army, the Nationalist frontline officer, recently beaten, dared not neglect it and immediately forwarded it. Because the letter was addressed to "Wang Jingwei, President of the Executive Yuan of the Nationalist Government," a certain Lu Dan, who was about to leave Wuhan, quickly learned of it. Upon reading the contents, his eyebrows... oh, no eyebrows for the moment... His expression was filled with rage, and he nearly tore up the letter.

Leaving aside Yue Weijun's letter, the other letter contained only one line of powerful and bold characters:

"Dean Wang, you don't want to be bald again, do you?"

Now, Wang Jingwei was completely certain that the man who came to shave his head that night was not the chivalrous hero Wang Yaqiao he had initially imagined, but someone from the Red Fourth Front Army! He even dared to write a letter threatening me!

Anyway, this handwriting looks a little familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere before... Without time to dwell on these details, Wang Jingwei began to ponder the Red Army's intentions. It was obvious that this was a threat to him, asking him to send supplies.

In addition to what Wuhan had previously promised and Yue Weijun's new request, it also included "filial piety" from President Wang. Although the threatening letter didn't say anything, who was Wang Jingwei? How could he not understand what the other party meant?

Dean Wang, if you don’t understand, next time it won’t just be your hair that’s shaved off.

As a public figure who frequently engages in external activities, how could Wang Jingwei not be afraid?

Even if he is not afraid of death, once the fact that his head was shaved is made public, the reputation of Dean Wang will suffer a huge blow.

Moreover, saving Yue Weijun, this useless person, would help President Wang improve his relationship with the military and make up for his shortcomings in the military system. Therefore, Yue Weijun must be saved.

However, would President Wang easily agree to the Red Army's extortion and sign an agreement to transport supplies over? No way.

It's not that he was reluctant to part with the money and supplies, but in this way, the credit for saving the man went to someone else, but the responsibility that should have belonged to Chiang Kai-shek fell entirely on Wang Jingwei's head! He couldn't just agree to the Red Army's extortion, nor could he refuse their extortion. So what should he do...

The next day, a statement from President Wang suddenly appeared in Wuhan newspapers:

"...I was shocked to hear that Division Commander Yue Weijun had been captured. I was deeply saddened... I would like to personally donate 20,000 silver dollars to rescue him..." "...I also hope that the Military Commission will make a decision soon and not allow the pillars of the Party and the country to fall into the hands of the enemy for too long..."
