Mao Zedong shook his head, his eyebrows gradually frowned: "Longdong is a piece of chicken ribs, which can be given to Wang Zixing, but northern Shaanxi must be guaranteed! I suggest sending Comrade Peng Dehuai to northern Shaanxi. If he is there, Wang Zixing will attack for a while. It won't succeed in a while. But we must step up our attack on Xinkou."
"Enlai, do you think this arrangement is good?" Mao Zedong smiled faintly at Zhou Enlai: "Our Liu Bei does not want to fight with Sun Quan, but it does not mean that we are afraid of Sun Quan! As long as they dare to come to northern Shaanxi, we must be ruthless." Teach them a lesson!"
Zhou Enlai is well aware of the importance of Shanxi and the difficult situation the CCP is currently facing, and he is also aware of the relationship between Wang Zixing and Luo Yaoguo.This time Wang Zixing jumped out to engage in "armed mediation" and it is very likely that there is Luo Yaoguo's support behind it!Now that Chiang Kai-shek, among the five leaders of the Kuomintang, has clearly stood by Yan Xishan's side, if Luo Yaoguo goes over again, the Kuomintang may directly send troops to intervene in the war in Shanxi!In this way, the CCP is very likely to lose the war, but it seems impossible to give up the attack on Shanxi... After all, it has already reached this point.
"The key now is not the youth army and Wang's self-examination, but the attitude of the Kuomintang rightists and Luo Yaoguo. The youth army's actions are likely to have their support. The banditry in Shanxi is also supported by the Kuomintang rightists." Zhou Enlai said solemnly: "So We must find a way to figure out the bottom line of the KMT rightists and Luo Yaoguo as soon as possible, only in this way can we formulate the most favorable response plan."
Speaking of this, Zhou Enlai turned his attention to Gu Shunzhang, an alternate member of the Politburo and head of the Central Special Section: "Let Qu Ying ask Luo Yaoguo to clarify the matter. I guess they have seen through our dark move long ago. Now There is no need to hide it any longer. Besides, Comrade Luo Fu (Zhang Wentian)... Has there been any change in public opinion in the 'National Controlled Area' during this period?"
Zhang Wentian frowned slightly, and adjusted his glasses: "Prime Minister, at present, newspapers of all sizes in the 'National-controlled Area' are... attacking our party's policies, saying that we are ignoring the once-in-a-century disaster in the Northwest, and only want to provoke civil war and expand the territory... Moreover, the reactionary capitalists and local tyrants and evil gentry who fled to the south from Beijing, Tianjin and other places also published articles in southern newspapers against us. The current public opinion war in the south is very unfavorable to us.”
"Yes, Prime Minister." Gu Shunzhang, who was in charge of intelligence work in the south, also stood up and echoed: "Newspapers in the south say bad things about us every day... What's more, some people took pictures of the displaced people in the northwest to the newspapers and published them. He also insisted that it was caused by our war against Yan Xishan... Now our work in the south is very difficult. Many comrades are confused by them, and people leave every day. There is a whole page in Shanghai and Wuhan newspapers every day To publish...the statement of leaving the party! If the work of public opinion is not stepped up, I am afraid that our intelligence network will also..."
"In addition... we recently got a very bad news... about the Trotskyites." Gu Shunzhang's tone was very slow, and he seemed hesitant to speak.
With a bang, Mif, the advisor to the Communist International, stood up.With a bang, he even brought his own chair down.
Trotskyists are Trotskyites!He is the person whom Stalin, the great leader of communism, hated the most in his life!Right now, the "Gulag" (General Administration of Labor Camps) in the Soviet Union is full of such counter-revolutionaries. Uh, of course, many of them are just filling the quota (every region has quotas for arresting Trotskyists, so it can't be completed.) No way.) That’s all.The Trotskyites or suspected Trotskyites in the Soviet Union are at the discretion of Father Si... But there are also large and small Trotskyite organizations popping up outside the territory of the Soviet Union. The burden of opposing these organizations falls on Mi Comintern consultants like Husband.Of course, the Comintern also set targets for Comrade Miff... It's just that it's a bit difficult to complete!Zhou Enlai of the CCP did not cooperate very much, and those Trotskyites hiding in the southern Kuomintang-controlled areas could not be caught!
Like Mif, the CCP bosses in the room all looked unhappy, especially Wang Ming, whose face was ashen.
Zhou Enlai picked up his teacup calmly and took a sip.He said lightly: "What's the matter with the Troops? If you have something to say, just say it."
"These Trotskyists also formed a faction a few years ago called the 'Chinese Communist Left Opposition', with Chen Duxiu as secretary, and gathered traitors such as Zheng Chaolin, Chen Qichang, Jiang Zhendong, and Zhao Ji to form a central committee. However, there have been no activities in the past two years, and they have been busy unifying internal thinking. At the same time, they have also been suppressed by the leftists of the Kuomintang...but now they have taken advantage of the low tide of our party's activities in the south to enter an active period. Recently, they held a meeting in Shanghai A congress was held...seems to be setting up a formal Trotskyist party, perhaps also called the 'Communist League of China'."
"what!"
Immediately, several different voices sounded, all with angry expressions.
"Zhou! We must wage the most resolute struggle against the Trotskyists! They must not be allowed to form a Trotskyist political party in Shanghai!" Miff probably got confused, but just yelled there, seeming to forget that Shanghai is now Whose territory?How will the CCP stop the law?
Chapter 0492 strange storm (a)
Zhou Enlai frowned slightly, ignored Miff's yelling, and gently turned the teacup in his hand, seemingly lost in thought.The current situation can be described as strange. On the one hand, the battle situation in Shanxi has gradually reached a stalemate, and the youth army in the Northwest has joined the battle group again!He also held up the signboard of "armed mediation" to disrupt the situation.
In the "legal struggle" in the southern Kuomintang-controlled areas, the CCP also seems to have fallen into a passive position.The public opinion in the south seems to be against the civil war, and they seem to be unable to distinguish the difference between the CCP’s revolutionary war and the warlord’s melee, or even confuse the two.It is estimated that the Kuomintang may also support these newspapers behind the scenes to carry out anti-communist propaganda... As for the Trotskyist party, do you know if it has the support of the Kuomintang?If the Kuomintang and the Trotskyites collude together, I'm afraid it will cause immeasurable losses to the party's struggle in the south!Otherwise, it would be difficult for these Trotskyites to succeed in the end.
At this time, everyone's eyes were on Zhou Enlai, with a little bit of expectation, waiting for this resourceful core figure of the CCP to point out the direction of struggle for everyone... In the past two years, it was Zhou Enlai's correct proposition that led the party His career has reached the current height, so naturally, his prestige is also increasing day by day.
Zhou Enlai met everyone's eyes and smiled slightly: "Comrades, our current situation is generally good. It's just that we have encountered a little trouble, which is insignificant at all... Even if Chen Duxiu and others are in the south So what if the Trotskyist political party is established? First, they don’t have territory, second, they don’t have an army, and third, they don’t have banknotes. What can they do? Moreover, the KMT also wants to suppress them, and they won’t give them much room to survive. After all, the Trotskyists Their views are also very radical, and they themselves oppose the establishment of a united front with any bourgeois forces. So we don’t need to worry too much.”
"...The problem now is to resolve the war in Shanxi as soon as possible, whether it is on the battlefield or at the negotiating table. As long as the war in Shanxi stops, our opponents will lose their excuse to attack us. And...the southern people's anti-civil war Emotions are not necessarily bad for us. If we can guide this emotion to oppose the Kuomintang’s Northern Expedition to unify China by force, or oppose the Kuomintang’s interference in the war in Shanxi, wouldn’t it be beneficial to us?”
"Zhou, what about our struggle against the Trotskyists? Shouldn't we start it?" Miff said coldly with a gloomy face.
Zhou Enlai gritted his teeth, took a look at the "Supreme Emperor", and took a deep breath: "Comrade Miff, tell me, how can we fight against the Trotskyists? Shanghai...is not our territory, Our underground party organization in Shanghai is also very weak."
Miff was taken aback when he heard the words, but after thinking about it carefully, he also knew that Zhou Enlai's words were reasonable, but...he represented the position of the Communist International and the Soviet Union.
"We can't catch the Trotskyites in Shanghai, but what about in the north? Are there no people from them in our army or in our territory?" Wang Ming slapped the table and stood up, the muscles on his face twitching slightly. , It seems to be angry with the Trotskyites!
Miff slapped his thigh. Just now, he only thought about how to deal with the Trotskyist Central Committee in Shanghai. He never thought that he would be able to suspend the Trotskyist Party on his own territory in the north!Moreover, through the support in the north, it can also establish prestige for those real Bolsheviks and suppress those disobedient "local revolutions".This Wang Ming is indeed a talent!
He immediately said to Zhou Enlai: "Comrade Zhou Enlai, Comrade Wang Ming's suggestion is very good. We should first clean up the Trotskyists inside. If we don't rectify our internal affairs...there is a high possibility that we will be rejected by the Trotskyists in Shanghai in the future." The central government is infiltrated. I suggest that the CCP set up a special committee to eliminate all class dissidents, including Trotskyites, local tyrants and evil gentry, Kuomintang rightists, imperialist spies, reactionary capitalists, etc. This committee can be called the National Anti-Revolutionary Committee. The person in charge I recommend Comrade Wang Ming!"
"I also agree with Advisor Miff's suggestion. Our current anti-revolutionary work is indeed very unfavorable. Not only have the local tyrants and evil gentry in northern Shanxi and the Taihang Mountains not been completely eliminated, but there are also many old officers in the Third Army who are not of the same mind as us. , and even...in Beijing, there are people who are against us." Zhang Wentian stood up and took over the topic:
"Of course, our anti-revolutionary work must also be carried out prudently. We must conduct careful investigations and pay attention to factual evidence. We will never let the bad guys go, and we must not wrong the good people. And... our anti-revolutionary work is also for' Heal the disease and save the patient', for those comrades who are accidentally deceived by the bad guys, we still have to focus on saving."
Zhang Wentian's words are well-founded. There are indeed many dissidents operating in the northern CCP's jurisdiction... Some places are still very rampant, such as the Tianjin Concession that has not yet been taken back.Moreover, in Beijing, under the watchful eyes of the CCP, many so-called "democrats" are dissatisfied with the CCP's policies.
Seeing that everyone was nodding frequently, they all agreed.Zhou Enlai also smiled slightly: "Okay, let's set up a similar organization, but... don't call it the Anti-Rebellion Committee, let's call it the Ministry of Social Affairs! After all, China is a backward semi-feudal and semi-colonial country, and our society also needs to carry out some reforms. Cleaning and renovation, the Ministry of Social Affairs happens to be responsible for this aspect. However, we must pay attention to grasp the real evidence in terms of methods, and we must not wrong good people!"
"At the same time, we must intensify our struggle against the Kuomintang reactionaries and the bourgeoisie in the south." Zhou Enlai changed the subject and brought the topic back to work in the south:
"My idea is to strengthen the party's leadership over literature and art work. Now with the 'six-year compulsory education' promoted by the Kuomintang reactionaries, the cultural level of the southern people, especially the youth, has been greatly improved. It is we who lead the revolution. It is a good opportunity for literary and art workers to carry out a powerful literary and ideological struggle. I suggest that we follow the example of the Soviet Union's "Rapp" (the full name of the Russian Federation of Proletarian Writers) to establish our own left-wing writers' alliance to compete with the Kuomintang reactionaries and the bourgeoisie for cultural propaganda. An important position."
……
With a bang, a big hand slapped hard on the coffee table.
"I didn't expect you to be a member of the Communist Party. So you lied to me for so long. Fortunately, I have always been sincere to you!"
It was Luo Yaoguo who spoke, he was wearing a homely Tang suit, and he was sitting on a chair puffed up.On a handsome face, there was seven or eight points of anger, and two or three points of surprise.
in front of him.Qu Ying and Qu Xiaomei were sitting neatly.His head was lowered, and his small face was filled with shame and guilt.I was silent and didn't know how to speak. After a long time, I bit my lip and replied in an inaudible voice: "...Brother Fuwen, I know you are good to me, but... I didn't mean to lie to you Yes, actually... I also want to be with you, because... I like you too, otherwise I wouldn't accept such a task. And I haven't done many things to apologize to you these years, only A few..."
A few pieces!There is not enough confidence to say this.After all, this little beauty has not been washed by the big waves, but just followed her brother to participate in the revolution ignorantly, basically a flower in a greenhouse.And after following Luo Yaoguo for a few years, he opened his mouth for food, stretched out his clothes for clothes, had a lot of pocket money and gifts, and lived a happy life with handsome men... This fighting spirit inevitably declined a little.At this moment, the circles of his eyes were red, and his face was covered with tears, as if he had just cried.
"Oh. I really did something that I'm sorry for!" Luo Yaoguo was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and said in his heart: "I and Natalie were on guard against her tightly enough, but I didn't expect that I still didn't guard against her! It seems that this The little girl is not a fuel-efficient lamp."
"Then why did you remember to tell me these things today? Do you know that you are wrong and want to correct it?" Seeing the pitiful appearance of the little beauty, Luo Yaoguo immediately softened his heart, thinking whether to give her A little punishment, and forgive her... er, a whip?Dripping wax?Bundle?I don't know if she can agree?
"No..." The little beauty raised her eyes and looked at Luo Yaoguo eagerly: "The higher-ups asked me to clarify with you."
"What! You little girl doesn't know what's wrong!" Luo Yaoguo almost fell into a state of madness.Just now when Qu Ying confessed to him with tears in her eyes, he was still happy in his heart, thinking that he was amazingly charming and had influenced the little beauty!I didn't expect it to be an order from someone else's organization!Uh, what are they trying to do?
"Your...what does the higher-ups want you to tell me?" Luo Yaoguo's voice had already softened, and his face had truly turned gloomy.
Seeing that Luo Yaoguo was really angry, Qu Ying bit her lip lightly, her eyes frightened: "Yeah, it's nothing... They just want to know about the Kuomintang reactionaries... er, it's the bottom line of the Kuomintang in the Shanxi battle, so as not to Unnecessary misunderstandings occurred between the two parties."
"Unnecessary misunderstanding?" Luo Yaoguo glanced at Qu Ying sullenly, already thinking about how to punish this little beauty who didn't know what to do.Uh, punish her well, let her realize her mistake, and stay by her side wholeheartedly in the future, for her... lustful pleasure.Think of the little beauty's smooth and tender skin, that pretty face with picturesque eyebrows, and her plump and firm breasts.Luo Yaoguo's expression gradually calmed down: "Tell me first what are your plans for the future? Do you want to go back to the north, or cut off contact with the north and stay by my side with peace of mind?"
Still, can you stay?Continue to live a happy life where you open your mouth and clothes, stretch out your hands, are accompanied by handsome men, and have too much money to spend?A gleam of joy flashed across the face of the little beauty, and she secretly glanced at the angry Luo Yaoguo, uh, the angry look is quite handsome.I don't know... Will I punish him later?
"I... I have completed this task and I have an explanation to the higher-ups." Qu Ying gritted her teeth: "I will stay by your side from now on, and I will be your person, and I will never associate with them again. But... ...You have to treat me better." The following words are for the subordinates to be merciful when punishing, and it is enough to show a little bit of meaning... But the little beauty stopped in time and didn't have the nerve to say it.
Luo Yaoguo stood up angrily, and said to Qu Ying, "It's not necessary not to associate with them, but you have to remember who you are! I don't have a channel to talk to the north right now, and many things are inconvenient. Just come and serve as this channel. But...you can't be theirs anymore."
Did not say how to punish.Qu Ying let out a sigh of relief, and there was a smile on her little face, which still looked quite pleasing: "Well, I'll listen to you." The little beauty nodded and agreed to Luo Yaoguo's request.In fact, this result was already expected by Zhou Enlai and Gu Shunzhang.An ignorant "greenhouse flower" like Qu Ying can only do the job of a sounding board.
Luo Yaoguo looked at the lovable appearance of his beloved little beauty, and a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's good if we can do that, now let's talk about the bottom line of our Kuomintang." His tone became serious again: "Our bottom line is that the battle in Shanxi cannot be escalated into a full-scale civil war! Moreover, Shanxi cannot all be given to the CCP. At least the south must be left to Yan Xishan, so that he can continue to act as a buffer between us and the CCP. If the CCP's army enters southern Shanxi area, our air force may be dispatched!"
"Oh, I remember." Qu Ying blinked her eyes, looked at Luo Yaoguo and said with a smile, "Anything else you want me to bring?"
Luo Yaoguo thought for a while, then nodded lightly: "There are some more things to say. The CCP wants to expand its territory, which is understandable. This is true of every family in this world, but we must also consider the ambitions of outsiders, especially Japan! If When we fight the CCP, Japan will definitely take the opportunity to seize Manchuria! By then, we will have a deep hatred with the CCP, and no one will trust the other party, so it will be impossible for us to truly unite with the outside world. Therefore, in this Shanxi campaign During the war, my uncle and I have been suppressing the opinions of the main battle, but our ability is limited, if the CCP cannot show more peace sincerity... I am afraid that the war will break out sooner or later."
"...And this youth army's Eastern Expedition was not instigated by us behind the scenes, and I only learned about it after the fact. However, Wang Junhao's proposal to mediate the CCP should respond positively, and some benefits can be obtained from the negotiating table. There is no need to use force, right?"
Speaking of this, Luo Yaoguo walked around the room with his hands behind his back, and finally heaved a long sigh: "The situation is getting more and more chaotic... If the two of us don't know how to restrain ourselves, maybe we will really fight. "
Chapter 0493 strange storm (b)
Tianjin Concession, Astor Hotel.In the most luxurious hotel in the north, which is about to close down, it actually received a big business in the past two days.The central government of Beijing took over the entire hotel and used it as the venue for the "Six-Party Talks on the Shanxi Issue".The six parties in the "Six-Party Talks" are the CCP, the Kuomintang Right, the Kuomintang Left, the Youth Party, the Jin Army, and the Northeast Army.Around April [-], negotiators from the six parties arrived one after another in the Tianjin Concession, where the market was extremely depressed, and the negotiations began immediately.
"Brother Enlai, our youth army's eastward march this time is definitely not to make things difficult for your party. It is really for the country and the people, and we want to mediate the conflict between your party and General Baichuan's Jin army. This war... said Really, it’s really unpopular. People from all walks of life are calling for a ceasefire every day in newspapers and newspapers in the south! Shouldn’t those of us in power also consider the voice of the people? , the north of Xinkou belongs to the CCP, and the south still belongs to the Jin army. The two families have stopped fighting, and our youth army has also withdrawn from Longdong. In this way, everyone will have face and a way out, don’t you think?”
The one who spoke was the former youth party class, "black-faced scholar" Zeng Qi, a great talent.Now he is unofficial and light-bodied, sitting there in casual clothes, waving a fan, talking eloquently, with the appearance of pointing out the country while laughing.
