1932: Playing with the Japanese Communist Party with a doll

These words left Jiang Jingguo speechless for a moment, but Ulanfu came to his senses and grasped a key point:

"So you think there should be a powerful organization in his army or even in his country responsible for enforcing his will? Just like... just like..."

"Yes! Just like 'establishing the Party branch in the company!' 'The Party commands the gun!' I suspect it's the effect of that 'evangelical religion'..."

"Religion..."

Ulanhu fell into deep thought.

As a native of the grasslands, he certainly knew that incorporating religion into the army was not uncommon, and it could indeed achieve this effect to a certain extent, but did he want to do the same as the Red Army?

Stop dreaming.

Religion is religion, and at most it can help brainwash people. Unless a common ideology, a complete organizational program, and a strict organizational system are established, it is absolutely impossible for it to play the role of a party organization.

But, if a religion reaches that level, can it still be called a religion? I always feel that there is something very strange about it.

After thinking for a while, Ulanfu decided to use his own eyes to verify the truth and provide intelligence support for Chairman Li who would arrive tomorrow. He planned to go to Ulanqab with Xu Shiyou to meet Fujiwara Kanezane, but was desperately stopped by Chiang Ching-kuo:

"Comrade Yunze! You can't go! This might be a trap!" "It's okay, I..."

"He's not a Communist! He's a member of the Japanese royal family! He's a slave owner! He's the one who invaded China and oppressed the Chinese people! He's not a Communist! He can't be trusted!"

Xu Shiyou frowned slightly.

Communist Party member?

It's just a name.

Weren't some of the "Communist Party members" of the former Red Fourth Army even more scoundrels than scoundrels, more bandits than bandits, more warlords than warlords, and more bullies than bullies?

Just because you have the title of "Communist Party member" doesn't mean you can become a communist;

Similarly, it doesn’t mean that if he doesn’t join the “XX Party”, he is not a good person.

It's very simple.

Why does this Mr. Jiang seem so childish... Ulanfu also thought so, but he didn't say it out loud. He shook his head and said:

"That's not the case. Comrade Jingguo, Comrade Xu Shiyou already..."

"Maybe he's already betrayed you! Maybe he's holding back just to catch all of you in one fell swoop!"

Chiang Ching-kuo didn't know why he disliked Fujiwara Kanezane so much.

Maybe it was because the other person was the same age as him, but was able to do something that he couldn't do at all?

Perhaps it was because of the other party's actions that completely ended his father's dream of unifying China?

Perhaps it's because the other party is a member of the royal family, lives freely and does not need to endure grievances?

Maybe it's because...

No matter how many "maybes" there are, it is true that Chiang Ching-kuo hated the "King of the Northeast" whom he had never met, and therefore he also hated everyone who had a good impression of Fujiwara no Kanezane or wanted to defect to him.

From this we can see that Mr. Chiang at this time still had a long way to go before he became the increasingly mature politician Chiang Ching-kuo who later went to Taiwan.

Being accused of being a traitor again and again, even Xu Shiyou, who had been "reborn", could not help but feel a little annoyed:

"Watch your words! What traitor! I'm following the Party Central Committee..." "Enough! I don't want to hear your lies!"

Jiang Jingguo ignored Xu Shiyou, grabbed Ulanhu's sleeve tightly, and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"He's not a Communist! He's a damned Japanese! A hateful invader! We absolutely cannot trust him!"

As soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly became eerily quiet.

A group of Mongolian herders, holding lambs or other supplies they had been allocated, were staring at the person who was speaking out of turn with cold eyes. Some of them had just finished bathing and were still wearing new cotton clothes, but the hostility on their faces was no longer concealed.

Yes, Chiang Ching-kuo's Zhejiang dialect was indeed difficult to understand, but some of them could understand Xu Shiyou's and especially Ulanhu's northern dialect!

A simple conversion formula—since the latter two were clearly desperately defending Prince Kanezane, what was the person arguing with them talking about? Was it that hard to guess?

Now that you have understood and guessed it, it is impossible not to be angry and not spread it, thus triggering greater anger.

Ulanfu was sharp-eyed and immediately noticed that the atmosphere was not right. He quickly whispered, "Comrade Jingguo, don't say anything for now..."

But how could Chiang Ching-kuo listen?

The anger of being ignored, monitored, and exiled in the Soviet Union, as well as the resentment of finding the Nationalist government's decline and imminent loss of everything after returning to China, all erupted at this moment:

"I'm going to say it!"

He pointed at the city of Ulanqab with gnashing teeth and cursed loudly:

"Who the hell is Fujiwara no Kanezane?! How can a Japanese person set up the 129th Division in China, implement land policies, promote people's liberation, and pretend to win over the people? He is just a slave owner and a hypocritical liar! He..."

The more Chiang Ching-kuo cursed, the more angry he became.

Finally, a white-haired old herdsman could no longer bear it. He cursed a few words in Mongolian, suddenly grabbed a piece of half-dried cow dung from the ground, and smashed it into Chiang Ching-kuo's mouth:

"You're talking nonsense, you beast! Shut up!" "Ugh! Cough cough cough! Ugh..."

Chiang Ching-kuo was caught off guard and had his mouth filled with cow dung. He tried desperately to spit it out, but the semi-solidified cow dung was still stuck between his teeth and in his throat like old phlegm, and he couldn't spit it out.

“You…what are you doing!?”

"Fuck you, you little son of a bitch! I'll smash you to death, you blind dog!" The Mongolian herdsmen and farmers' curses were very poor, and they could not even fully and accurately express their gratitude to the 129th Division and Fujiwara Kanezane and their anger towards Chiang Ching-kuo, but it did not affect them from expressing their emotions at the moment in other ways.

Since you can't reason, let's talk about physics.

Then, the furious cow dung and mud were thrown at Chiang Ching-kuo!

"Stop! Don't do it! He's not..."

Xu Shiyou, Ulanhu and others rushed forward to stop them, but the angry herdsmen ignored them and rushed over madly, waving their fists and sticks violently.

"Anyone who helps this bastard is their accomplice!"

Based on the most basic understanding, someone shouted something like this. And then, the situation completely got out of control.

When Fujiwara no Kanezane arrived after receiving the news, Xu Shiyou, Ulanhu, Chiang Ching-kuo and at least 200 Red Army soldiers were forced to kneel on the ground by even more people.

Chiang Ching-kuo, in particular, was beaten until his face was bruised and swollen, tears were streaming down his face, his face was covered in mud, his mouth was stuffed with all kinds of feces, and he was tied to a wooden rack like a New Year pig, which was quite similar to the crucifixion of Jesus.

Well, according to the rules on the grassland, this kind of person will usually be stripped naked and let an eagle peck his penis to death.

With the presence of an agent, Fujiwara no Kanezane certainly knew Ulanhu's location, but no one expected that the tiger-fighting Xiao Jianfeng was also there and actually caused such a mess.

If Xu Shiyou and Ulanhu had not been rational enough and resolutely ordered all Red Army soldiers to lay down their weapons, surrender and absolutely not allow any resistance, if an armed conflict had broken out today, who knows how many people would have died and how much would have been ruined.

Ah Xi, what are you doing?

549 Hello, Comrade

"Everyone, stop it! Let Commander Xu and the others go first! No private possession of guns allowed! Listen to me! Hey! I'm talking to you! Stop it! And you hit the wrong guy!"

Fujiwara no Kanezane issued one order after another, and the crowd, which had been extremely violent before, calmed down in an instant and stopped enthusiastically communicating with the Red Army of Xu Shiyou's unit and Chiang Ching-kuo and others.

Of course, the biggest reason for everyone to calm down was probably the slightly scary scene of the ordinary, frail black and white maid beside His Highness shaking off the big man with sweaty hands as easily as shaking off sweaty hands.

However, no one was willing to approach the "dung bag guy" on the wooden shelf who was cosplaying as Jesus involuntarily, and no one was willing to release him.

Fujiwara no Kanezane had no choice but to appease the people while quickly releasing the innocent Xu Shiyou, Ulanhu and others to prevent the tension from continuing to escalate. Finally, he forced Chiang Ching-kuo to be released and got some water for him to wash.

It was still a little chilly on the grassland in the afternoon. Little Jiang, who had already been beaten and stimulated, shivered suddenly when he was touched by the water. He looked very embarrassed, much like his father when he participated in the pajama mountain climbing competition in Xi'an.

Fujiwara Kanezane stayed at a distance to avoid the stench, looking at another "unlucky guy" whose life trajectory was changed by his "collapse and travel" and some fancy operations.

As for Chiang Ching-kuo, Fujiwara no Kanezane, or in other words, Mark in later generations, could not be said to hate him as much as they hated Chiang Kai-shek, but at least they did not have any good feelings towards him.

In 1937, after being rescued from the Soviet Union by the Chinese Communist Party through arduous negotiations, the first thing this former "communist" did was not to express gratitude, but to immediately declare his separation from all Soviet Communist Party organizations and claim that he had never believed in communism;

Then, like his father, he took anti-communism as his mission, which lasted for his entire life. Later, when he went to Taiwan, he used the banner of "One China" to frantically create divisions until he was angered to death by his American masters.

This is not really a black mark. After all, just like the article ("A Letter to My Mother") that he published in Pravda in January 1936 under Wang Ming's pressure, which severely criticized Chiang Kai-shek, it was probably due to many practical factors.

The failure of the "New Deal in Southern Jiangxi" in Jiangxi and the failure of the "anti-corruption" campaign in Shanghai were nothing. No politician's growth was smooth sailing, and encountering setbacks was common.

In Taiwan, he used various overt and covert, clean and dirty means to deal with political opponents such as Sun Liren, Bai Chongxi, and Li Zongren, which was also beyond reproach. In the political arena, being soft-hearted is the biggest fool;

As for some of his other reactionary policies and decisions, they simply fully demonstrated that Chiang Kai-shek was a staunch counter-revolutionary fighter loyal to his own ass;

Besides, serving a butt is never considered shabby. What is shabby is that you are clearly a slave, but you insist on singing praises for the slave owner.

Some scabs, you say?

There are actually two main things that really brought bad reputation to Chiang Ching-kuo:

1. In his later years, he mentally disordered and chose Iwashiro Masao, a senior spy of the Empire of Japan, as the leader of Taiwan, which dealt a devastating blow to the reunification of the motherland and Taiwan's political, cultural, and public opinion environment.

This goes without saying. Although whether or when Taiwan can return to the motherland has never depended on Taiwan itself or any of its leaders, these flies have no ability to bite people, but they are very good at disgusting people.

2. Taiwan’s 1450 and some brainless idiots have successfully aroused collective disgust among the left and right in China and abroad with their unbridled boasting about Chiang Ching-kuo himself and the entire Chiang dynasty.

For example, on a certain website:

"Since the Opium War, China has had two historical goals: one was to shake off its so-called colonial past, and the other was to complete internal democratization and allow the Chinese people to live like human beings. Chiang Ching-kuo accomplished the latter." (Note the "so-called")

"No matter what bad things he did, he led the entire Chinese nation to complete the transition from a feudal society to a modern civilized and democratic society. Just for this reason (I will always respect him)"

"Chiang was born in mainland China, educated in the Soviet Union, and born into a family of warlords and dictators. He personally implemented high-pressure authoritarian policies, but ultimately chose to lift martial law and support constitutional democracy, achieving not only his own redemption but also the redemption of the people of an entire region."

"He could be a dictator, he was already a dictator, but he gave up being a dictator and ended the dictatorship with dictatorial means. Is there anyone else like him in the world?"

"Whenever some people in mainland China have to kneel before towering buildings and wide gates because of something, I always feel that Mr. Chiang Ching-kuo's contribution to the Chinese nation is unparalleled..."

"When there are always arguments that the Chinese nation is unsuitable for something, the presence of the other side of the strait always silently slaps them in the face..."

(The frogs are actually really pitiful. Given their intelligence, which has been brought up by Taiwan's completely ignorant education for a long time, we still feel that their tone and word choice are not detectable to us.)

These idiots are praising Chiang Ching-kuo as "the greatest man of all time". Even a fool knows what their purpose is. To use the precise answer given by a Zhihu netizen:

"...they actually had no interest in Chiang Ching-kuo as a person or his cause. They simply used him as a pawn, using their claims of respect and admiration for him to attack whoever or whatever they wanted to attack."

But no matter what, Chiang Ching-kuo had no presence in the hearts of the Chinese people. Through the incident of Masao Iwashiro and the boasting of these idiots, he was successfully transformed into "dislike".

Mark is certainly no exception.

After a new life, he became a member of the Japanese royal family, but he still couldn't get rid of the disgusting feeling deep in his memory:

"Oh! Isn't this Mr. Jiang? What a dashing and heroic figure, what a majestic presence!"

Although he had never seen him before, Chiang Ching-kuo could guess who this person was from the attitudes and addresses of the people around him. Seeing the other party mocking him, he gritted his teeth and said:

"you know me?"

"Of course I do."

Fujiwara Kanezane walked forward slowly, looking down at Chiang Ching-kuo, who was sitting on the ground and unable to get up, with a hint of amusement in his eyes:

"A hostage who was tossed around like garbage by Stalin in the Soviet Union, the first thing he did after returning to China wasn't to work hard and do something practical for the people, but instead came here to insult me? What do you mean, by insulting me, your Chiang Kai-shek dynasty will regain its glory?"

"you! !!"

Chiang Ching-kuo was filled with shame and anger, but Fujiwara no Kanezane didn't give him any chance to respond and continued to mock him:

"You spent eight full years in the Soviet Union, using the wealth created by the people, attending top universities that ordinary people couldn't even dream of, and receiving the best education. But what did you learn besides a few empty political slogans?"

(This person is highly praised in his official resume, but privately his classmates (including Ulanhu, Sheng Yue, etc.) generally have a low or even negative opinion of him;)

(A few students, such as Ulanfu, were relatively polite—"Chiang Ching-kuo was always the most active in criticizing Trotsky.") Others' comments were similar to those of the Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs:

"(Chiang's) statement distancing himself from my father may have been a strategic gesture. Although there is no conclusive evidence of reactionary behavior, his political stance has always been performative, and he is good at changing his stance according to the situation and appears radical on the surface."

(The Party Committee of the Lal Machinery Plant even directly gave a devastating assessment: "Comrade Nikolay often used illness as an excuse to evade compulsory labor and was very particular about his salary and benefits.")

"I…"

"As for military command, you've never even been on the battlefield. As for your knowledge level, you're no better than any of my officers. As for governing a country, do you know how to distribute land?"

(Well, Soviet instructor Kaliakin did record in his book "Chinese Cadets": "Chiang performed particularly well in the tank practice class.")

Chiang Ching-kuo was so angry that his face turned blue, but he could not refute it.

At least, he could not refute Fujiwara no Kanezane, who had successfully pacified the Northeast, established a powerful new army, and even "imitated the Chinese Communist Party" very successfully.

If he had been more cautious and conducted a serious investigation after returning to the country to understand Fujiwara no Kanezane's various policies and past instead of speaking without thinking, he might not have been so passive.

However, he didn't, so he could only take the blame:

"As for me? I dare to bring my army here, stand with the people here openly, and tell them that I will distribute land, pastures, cattle and sheep to them. I always keep my promises! What about you? Master Jiang, do you dare? Can you?"

"You...you are the invader!"

"That's all you can say from beginning to end. What a useless fool! Have you read the 'Three Represents'? Even if I admit I'm an invader, I'm still a thousand times better than your inhumane father and your crappy government."

Seeing that Chiang Ching-kuo couldn't even respond, Fujiwara Kanezane completely lost interest and looked at him with contempt:
