Chapter 72 Nanyang Overseas Chinese Leader
It was already afternoon when he flew to Dihua. Sheng Shicai, who had received the news early, led a group of civil and military officials to greet him, giving him enough face.
Sheng Shicai is in a very complicated mood now. As a "promising" warlord who started his business with the coup, he relied on the help of the S1 people to gain a foothold and became the king of Xinjiang. His current status is relatively straight. He neither surrenders to the Kuomintang, but also maintains a friendly but defensive attitude with S1. At the same time, he has a close connection with Yan'an. He himself is also a complex person and a contradiction.
Sheng Shicai was once called the "King of Xinjiang" and ruled Xinjiang for nearly 12 years. Because Xinjiang is close to S1, Sheng Shicai's relationship with S1 was once on a "honeymoon" in order to consolidate his rule. Later, with the change of the situation, Sheng Shicai finally broke with S1.
However, it was precisely because Shengshicai "returned" to the National Government in 1942 that Xinjiang had left the control of S1, and the changes in the world were very impermanent. If Germany did not invade S1, or S1 did not fail in the early stage and made Shengshicai misjudgment, believing that S1 would be eliminated and he would lose his backer, then he would not surrender to the Chiang government. In this way, if there was no change at that time, Xinjiang would be very likely to imitate Outer Mongolia and announce ** at some suitable opportunity and split.
During his tenure in Xinjiang, in order to maintain his dominance, he adopted a counter-independence with the Chiang government's policies, implemented six major policies, namely anti-imperialism, pro-Soviet, national equality, integrity, peace, and construction, driving away the British and Japanese imperialism's forces in Xinjiang, and relying on the power of S1 and ** to build Xinjiang into a strong rear of anti-Japanese resistance. After his wings gradually grew, he claimed that Xinjiang was the third political group except the Kuomintang and the Communist Party to maintain his special status. Finally, due to various complex domestic and international situations, he turned against his past beliefs, embarked on the road of anti-Soviet ** and surrendered to Chiang's dictatorial government.
The predecessor of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, the Northeast Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army, retreated into the Soviet territory in the early anti-Japanese war, about 20,000 people retreated into the Soviet territory through S1. This part of the force was deceived by Shengshicai's conspiracy and became victims of Shengshicai's war. During the more than ten years of Shengshicai's rule in Xinjiang, the Northeast Volunteer Army soldiers who died of his conspiracy and cruel persecution reached a shocking 10,000 people. Later, the remnants of the Volunteer Army, who had a bloody hatred with Shengshicai, chased Shengshicai everywhere. After failing to make many efforts, they turned to Lanzhou to assassinate Shengshicai's father-in-law's family and young family, and wrote on the wall in blood: Ten years of grudges and snow. It can be seen that Shengshicai aroused great public anger in Xinjiang. He was the mortal enemy of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army.
Sheng Shicai rescued the remnants of the Western Route Army of the Red Army that entered Xinjiang and trained a group of military and technical talents for Yan'an, but he also broke up with the ** and killed Mao Zemin and Chen Tanqiu.
Regarding Shengshicai, Deng Fa, the former representative of ** in Xinjiang, once made an incisive comment: "Shengshicai, by his origin, was an ambitious warlord; in terms of his thoughts, was a local emperor; in terms of his behavior, was a wolf-bred pig."
If Ma Qian'an didn't know what kind of person Shengshi was, he would not have any psychological burden. Unfortunately, he knew and knew what this guy would do in the future, which made Ma Qian'an uneasy.
No matter how smiling and humble Sheng Shicai stood in front of Zhou Enlai, all these changed in Ma Qian'an's eyes. Sheng Shicai gradually turned into a hideous evil dog, which was frightening and disgusting.
The path of Shengshicai will inevitably continue. When he saw the s1 defeat in the early stage of the Soviet-German War, he will definitely abandon S1 in his heart, and the anti-imperialist and pro-communist slogans he spoke of, and respond to his feudal local emperor's approach. After weighing the pros and cons, his cunning fence-bearing personality will definitely explode. The reason for the transformation of Shengshicai is that the Soviet Union's miserable defeat before 1942 was unchanged by Ma Qian'an. At this time, Ma Qian'an wanted to change this result, which was undoubtedly a scoundrel who was unable to end.
Seeing Mao Zm who was accompanying Zhou e1, Ma Qian'an began to feel a little restless. How to save these comrades before he surrendered to Chiang Kai-shek became a heart-wrenching problem for Ma Qian'an.
That night, except for Zhou E1 and Ren BS, who went out for social activities, Ma Qian'an accompanied him to protect him, the rest of the people rested in the hotel and no one went out.
On the second day, the special plane that had replenished fuel left Dihua and flew directly to Yan'an. Time was tight, and the plan to go to Xi'an was also abandoned.
At 4 pm on May 31, 194o, amid the rumbling roar, the 1i-2 transport plane, which acted as a special plane, landed smoothly on the Yan'an Airport. The welcome crowd rushed forward without waiting for the plane to stop.
Finally, Ma Qian'an, who walked out of the cabin door, recognized Zhu D who was shaking hands with Zhou e1 at a glance, and heard Zhu D's deep and kind voice.
"E1, are you back, your arms are completely healed?"
Zhou e1 pulled out his arm and waved it vigorously, "How is it? Can you tell if you are injured?"
"Okay, okay, I'm relieved now." Zhu D then quietly attached himself to Zhou e1's ear and said, "E1, I heard you have money? Okay, our army is worried that there is no rice to put it in. You will solve the big problem this time. Hey, Ren Huzi, I haven't seen you for two years, you are much more energetic. Is there anything good?" Zhu D didn't wait to finish his conversation with Zhou e1, and grabbed Ren Bs next to him and patted him intimately twice.
After a warm chaos, the greetings and the greetings finished their talk. Zhou e1 specially introduced several comrades from the Anti-Japanese United Nations League and two international friends to Zhu D. Then some people came forward to arrange for everyone to return.
Ma Qian'an followed Zhu D and Zhou e1 slowly, paying attention to listening to the conversation between them. Ma Qian'an's ears were pointed. Although some whispers were hard to hear clearly, most of the rest were really listened.
"Mao Mao had agreed a few days ago and said he would come to greet you in person. He didn't expect to receive a notice from the Kuomintang Xi'an yesterday, saying that Chen Jiashen, a famous overseas Chinese leader from Nanyang, arrived this afternoon. He went to the south gate to greet you and asked me to tell you." This is Zhu D's words.
"Really? Chen Jiashen is here? What's the purpose?" Zhou e1 was surprised. This overseas Chinese leader, Chen Jiashen, was familiar among the Chinese people at that time, and had a great reputation. The famous patriot raised 1.1 billion yuan of legal tender to support the War of Resistance in 1939 alone. At that time, the military expenditure of the National Government was only 1.8 billion yuan of legal tender. It is conceivable how much Chen Jiashen should attach to Chiang Kai-shek. Why did such a heavyweight overseas Chinese leader come to Yan'an? Chiang Kai-shek would be willing to let his God of Wealth come to Yan'an?
Countless questions arose in Zhou e1's mind.
"Hey, let's not mention that, e1, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?"
"Of course it is a good thing. No matter what purpose Mr. Chen came, or whether he was responsible for Chiang Kai-shek's entrustment, he came to Yan'an is a good thing. As long as he is not deceived, he should be able to see what kind of government we are in Yan'an and what kind of mental state the people living in Yan'an are. We should show our true self and let the old man judge for himself! What he said will have a huge impact on the Chinese living in Nanyang."
"There is still time now. If you don't bother to be tired, we will go to the south gate to greet you. What do you think?"
Zhou e1 looked at Ren BS, looked at Zhu D, then looked at the others, Zhan Yan smiled and asked, "Old Master Zhu said that a famous overseas Chinese leader will come to our Yan'an in a while. I decided to go to greet you. If you have people who are not tired among you, go together, okay?"
What kind of person is needed to welcome the three officials from the Central Committee? The curiosity of the people who followed Zhou e1 from Moscow was aroused. Everyone agreed regardless of the hardships of the boat and the car. Without any surprise, they all went.
Ma Qian'an lags behind a few steps and deliberately goes hand in hand with Deng yc at the end, helping Deng yc with something diligently. When he was on the plane, Ma Qian'an made a statement intentionally or unintentionally and approached Deng yc. Deng yc soon fell in love with this smiling little guy.
Yang Jingyu was amused by the way to listen to the two of them talking about trivial matters in life. This little horse also had a way of chatting with lesbians, but I don’t know where to learn how to fight. Judging from the appearance of the two of them, they were quite right in their conversation.
"Pony, how can you remember so many kinds of flowers? So many kinds of meanings? Like a careful girl, tell me the symbolic meaning of kapok flowers again. I have to remember. There is also the daffodil called 'Lingbo Fairy'? What a nice name."
