Cui Kefu has been in a hurry these days. For diplomats in other countries, especially diplomatic officers, who did not complete the task, it was just a punishment. What's more serious is demotion.

But the Soviet Union was different!

After returning, he was a little lucky and was suspended and sent to the factory to work as a worker. If someone held a grudge and said something slandered by Stalin, then what was waiting for them was the investigation of the special department. In the end, the concentration camp was nothing more than a yellow gun.

Chiang Kai-shek was reluctant to see that he asked Cui Kov to go to Shanxi, but he had to agree to Cui Kov's request.

In East China, those who Cui Kov offended were likely to leave all the military investigation team he led in China.

Officials of the entire Ministry of Military Affairs regarded Cui Kov as a disaster, and the patience of those in power was limited, which undoubtedly brought hidden dangers to Cui Kov's safety. It was a critical period when the Republic of China government purchased arms from the Soviet Union, no one dared to take this risk, but what if these arms arrived in China?

No one dared to give this guarantee. There is still a need for the Soviet military investigation team to exist. After all, according to the agreement, the Soviet Union will send a military advisory team to China before the end of the year. The early differences in cooperation will set up obstacles in future cooperation.

Since Chiang Kai-shek took over the government, he may not be the one who understands politics the most, but he is undoubtedly the one who understands what warlords want the most.

Even if he didn't want to see it, he vaguely discovered that his Huangpu students also had bad signs of transitioning to warlords, but he was powerless to stop them.

Corruption and bribery are rare, but there are frequent cases of cultivating forces and alliances with each other.

This is suspected of being the principal.

When Cui Kefu arrived in Shanxi, Yan Xishan was worried that how to arrange these masters was indeed a headache.

After measuring the gains and losses, Yan Xishan, commander of the Second World War Zone, sent an insignificant official to take Cui Kefu and his group to the Eighth Route Army's headquarters. It is no longer realistic to curb the development of the Northwest ZG. There is a large area in the northwest that borders Mongolia. All signs show that as long as the relationship between the Soviet Union and the Northwest eases, there will naturally be a steady stream of arms transported from the Sino-Mongolia border to Guanzhong.

As an almost-strong military group, Shanxi has a top arms production base and there is no need to buy weapons and ammunition from the Soviet Union at all.

Especially the combat aircraft, the largest arms purchased by the Republic of China from the Soviet Union, Yan Xishan knew that he had no blessing to save it.

Accompanied by a lieutenant colonel staff officer in the Second World War Zone, Cui Kefu and his nine men finally arrived in Huocheng, a small mountain city on the edge of the southern foot of the Taihang Mountains.

When Cui Kefu stepped into this land, he discovered a completely different scene, and the scenes of military-civilian cooperation appeared frequently. The scenes of many soldiers wearing shabby military uniforms and helping the people carry water deeply moved Cui Kefu, a Soviet soldier.

In his images, the army should represent the people, but this kind of military-civilian cooperation scenario is not common even in the Soviet Union.

Cui Koff, who had lived in China for a few years, knows some Chinese language. When he saw the Chinese farmer who walked by from time to time, with a dish on his face, but was still energetic, he could no longer help but stop a farmer who walked by them and observed him with his eyes curiously from time to time.

"Hello, is this the Eighth Route Army's garrison?"

Wearing a homemade cloth, many places where they often rubbed were patched, and they were completely dressed in a copy of the mountain people. The traces of time were clearly visible on his old face. After being stopped by Cui Kefu, the old farmer was startled.

The mountain people rarely go out for almost their entire lives, let alone when they see Europeans with high noses and big eyes, the old farmer nervously glanced at Lieutenant Colonel ** on the side, then bowed slowly, and asked nervously: "Sir, who am I my duty!"

The lieutenant colonel officer interrupted the old farmer's defense impatiently, pointed at Cuikov beside him and said to the old farmer: "This is the chief of the Soviet Union. He is here to learn about the preparations for the war. Tell him everything you know."

The old farmer said with a bitter face and mournful look: "I am just a farmer. This year's scenery is not good, but this year's rain is still timely. The harvest in the field is!..."

The lieutenant colonel officer waved his hand and interrupted the old farmer's nagging, scolding: "Who told you to talk about the crops in the field? The Soviet experts asked you to tell him what army is stationed here, how many people are there, and whether there are any soldiers in your family..."

The lieutenant colonel said a lot, but the old farmer looked at the lieutenant colonel who was almost performing with an innocent look on his face. Finally, he said helplessly: "I am just a farmer, and I don't know about the war!"

ah!--

The lieutenant colonel was so angry that he wanted to slap the old farmer, thinking to himself, I don’t know what you delayed me. The lieutenant colonel was born rich and noble, just like an officer in the army. If he was an ordinary officer and was born poor, even if he went to the military academy, he could only go to the army, starting from the platoon leader and the deputy company.

Only after ten or eight years can you live a little like a person.

However, if there are ways and powerful children join the army, they will not take such a path. Once the military academy comes out, they can gilt the logistics, military supplies, and staff departments. After a few years, they will be sent off the army and start directly from the battalion commander and the deputy regiment. It will be much easier to advance the career of the officialdom.

However, the old farmer obviously did not give the lieutenant colonel face. When the group was feeling a little regretful, a row of cavalry came from a distance.

The same military uniform and the same weapon, but the knights on the horse give people the feeling of being Xiaosha.

Among the cavalry, several people with a cadre-like appearance were chatting and laughing, slowly riding the war horse.

This team of men was obviously here to welcome Cui Kefu and his party. Seeing this scene, the Lieutenant Colonel of the Jin army, who was still angry with the old farmer, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Cui Kefu and his group always asked these questions. Many sensitive questions were secrets in the Jin army, so he naturally didn't dare to say them, but from Cui Kefu's disappointed eyes, he felt a stinging feeling in his heart.

The cavalry team also discovered that these people like Cui Kefu immediately accelerated their speed. A cadre with black frame eyes activated the flattery under him and shouted loudly in Russian: "Is it Vasily? Ivanovic? General Cui Kefu?"

Cui Kefu also walked out of the crowd and knew that he was here to receive him.

When the two of them held each other's hands tightly, their excited expressions made the Jinsui army officers on the side feel helpless.

The person who came was Lieutenant General Liu, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army. Although Cui Kov had been fighting for many years, he was a little lost in his mind. Because there was one of the other's eyes that could not be turned, which was obviously a false eye.

It is rare to survive after being injured so seriously, and it is obvious that it is a miracle that can still return to the battlefield.

The arrogant Cui Kefu gradually put down his identity and no longer showed his uniqueness in an expert manner. After handing over the reins of the horse to the people behind him, the two walked side by side on the dirt road full of gravel.

After talking, Cui Kefu realized that the other party had studied in the Soviet Union and could speak fluent Russian. Coincidentally, Cui Kefu, as a military expert in Eastern affairs, also spoke Chinese. Although he had a strong accent, he could still understand what he was saying.

"General Liu, I have seen many troops from Wuhan to Nanjing. It seems that some troops are indeed excellent and the soldiers have strong fighting spirit, but from your soldiers, I saw a different army." Cui Kefu learned from his mistakes and said compliments in the Eastern Way without understanding it.

"The army is the most powerful time when it represents the people." Deputy Commander-in-Chief Liu smiled calmly. He knew that Cui Kefu came to Shanxi was just a formality, and mainly understood the combat effectiveness of the China National Team in North China.

The first choice is of course the Northeast Army and the Shanxi Sui Army. Although I was curious about why Cui Kefu came to the Eighth Route Army headquarters, the answer can only be known after asking the Central Committee.

The conversation between the two on the road was just about Fengyue and did not talk about war at all. Compared with the caution of the Eighth Route Army reception, when they arrived at the station and did not even eat, Cui Kefu proposed to go to the front line.

This incident suddenly made many people in the Eighth Route Army unable to understand.

Where is the front line?

Now Pingxing Guan Fanzhi is fighting in full swing, and the Eighth Route Army headquarters will take as fast as one week to reach Pingxing Guan. How could Cui Koff be so likely to be far away?

Observing the combat literacy of the Japanese army at close range was a key task for his trip. He was able to provide a comprehensive assessment of the combat capabilities of the Kanto Army through direct observation of the Japanese army and reflect the information.

All signs indicate that the Japanese army's peeping into the Soviet Far East has not been eliminated.

The battle between Su and Japan is bound to break out. But controlling it under a small scale is what Cui Kefu is most concerned about.

Small-scale warfare, regional warfare of tens of thousands of people, the Soviet Union was confident of defeating the Japanese army. The key was to use a big victory to cut off the idea of ​​advancing north. But if it was a large-scale warfare, after Japan controlled the entire Northeast of China, the border lines of the two military powers were more than 2,000 kilometers, such a long front line, and the Far East was a remote area of ​​the Soviet Union, so it was much more difficult to transport materials than the Japanese army.

Therefore, as soon as Cui Koff arrived at the Eighth Route Army's garrison, he urgently hoped to follow the Eighth Route Army's combat troops and go to the front line to take a look.

Just in time, Liu Bc, deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army and commander of the 129th Division, was also going to the front line, so Cui Kov, who had just arrived in Huocheng, rushed to the defense area of ​​the 115th Division without stopping.

With the unfavorable news in the early stage, Cui Kefu is not optimistic about this battle.

On this day, Cui Kefu came to General Lin, the commander of the 115th Division. As soon as he entered General Lin's command center, he asked in a questioning tone: "Why did you not tell me about military operations?"

Mr. Lin has a bad temper and frowned and was about to leave. Cui Kefu represented the Soviet Union and was the eldest brother, but it is not necessarily necessary that the 115th Division's combat operations should be asked for instructions! Mr. Lin, who was not interested in speaking, walked out of the command center and stepped onto the war horse, leaving Cui Kefu with a dull look on his face.

The 115th Division has been exploring the terrain near Pingxingguan for a day or two, and it is very suitable for ambush battles. However, facing the elite brigade of the 5th Division of the Japanese Army, the 115th Division seemed to be somewhat insufficient in heavy equipment, and its cooperation was not enough to annihilate the reorganized Japanese combat troops.

Therefore, the front line command decisively gave up its plan to ambush the Japanese combat troops and instead prepared to ambush its baggage corps.

The advantage of ambushing Japanese baggage troops is that they can seize more supplies and the casualties of the troops will not be too large.

The troops arrived at the ambush site two days ago. According to the Japanese army's habit of transporting supplies every three days, today the Japanese supply troops passed by Pingxingguan. Mr. Lin had no intention of telling Cui Kefu much and went directly to inspect the troops.

Cui Kefu looked at Mr. Lin walking past him in disbelief, as if he didn't exist at all and rode away.
Chapter completed!
