On September 19, the "Democratic Political League" was formally reorganized into the "Democratic League", and Huang Yanpei became chairman of the Central Standing Committee of the Voters' League.

At this time, the "Democratic League" was not completely biased towards the Communist Party, and they still had unrealistic illusions about the Nationalist Government. Because Lao Jiang likes acting, he always slaps and gives sweet dates to democrats, which makes people feel that they have not completely lost hope while being angry.

In September last year, at the First Plenary Session of the Fifth Central Committee of the Kuomintang (KMT), Lao Chiang put forward the slogan of "implementing constitutional government and returning government to the people." This has given many democrats, including Huang Yanpei, a glimpse of the light of day, and Huang Yanpei has even been appointed as a member of the Standing Committee of the Supreme Council for the Implementation of Constitutional Affairs, and it seems that the old Chiang really intends to ****** gradually.

However, Huang Yanpei soon found out that he had been deceived, and Lao Chiang's so-called constitutionalism was another fake trick. At the same time as Taizu put forward the proposal to "form a coalition government", Huang Yanpei and his democratic partners immediately responded, and the United Communist Party and other democratic parties put pressure on Lao Chiang.

Even so, Huang Yanpei still believes that the Nationalist Government is the orthodox. He hoped that Chang Kaishen would be the leader and form a coalition government ruled by various parties, but he did not believe that the Communist Party would be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility of leading China.

Until 1945, Huang Yanpei could not see the slightest hope for democracy, and was invited to Yan'an for a visit. After witnessing the completely different spiritual outlook between the liberated areas and the nationalized areas, Huang Yanpei was immediately impressed by them and became a loyal supporter of the Communist Party.

On the eve of the defeat of the Kuomintang, Huang Yanpei's second son Huang Jingwu was captured by spies, and Taizu ordered to rescue him at all costs. It's a pity that he was one step slower, Huang Jingwu was tortured and did not expose his secrets, and was buried alive with a broken leg by the spies.

Zhou Hexuan still did not join the "Democratic League" after all, and the reason is very simple-

The "Democratic League" wanted Zhou Hexuan to be a member and vice chairman of the Central Committee (the number of vice chairmen of the Democratic League varied, but at most there were more than a dozen), but Zhou Hexuan insisted on being an ordinary member of the league. This is purely not giving face to the "Democratic League", what does it mean that you Zhou Hexuan has so much influence and is only an ordinary member of the League?

It doesn't matter, anyway, Zhou Hexuan still has a layer identity as a member of the Zhi Gong Party, and they all belong to democratic parties.

Going back to the war situation, when the Nationalist army suffered a tragic defeat in Henan, Hunan and Guizhou, the communist army launched a local counteroffensive against the trend.

Luo Shuai's troops in Shandong regained a total of 118,000 square miles of land from March to September; Nie Shuai's troops in Shanxi captured more than 30 county seats, recaptured more than 5,000 villages, and destroyed all the front-line pillboxes of the Japanese puppet army in the Beiyue Mountains from January to October; Liu Shuai's troops in the Hebei-Shandong-Henan region recovered more than 60,000 square miles of land from March to December; and General Lu's troops in the Jinsui region regained a total of 97,000 square miles of land from April to October.

The New Fourth Army took the initiative to launch an offensive in March, recovering a large amount of lost territory, and at the same time marched to the Central Plains with the strength of five regiments in mid-August.

The reasons for the success of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army in 1944 were none other than the following two points: first, the Japanese army dispatched a large number of elites to fight the national army head-on, and the puppet army filled the military void; Second, the large-scale production campaign carried out by the Communist Party in the base areas was very effective, and at this time it already had a relatively deep logistical self-sufficiency capability.

In any case, this counterattack left the Japanese army anxious, and the logistics and supply lines were paralyzed. Even if they caused the defeat of the national army in Yuxianggui, they would not be able to continue to advance, and they would have to spend energy to mobilize troops and rectify the rear.

The successive victories of the communist army also made Lao Jiang panic, so the national army in the battlefield behind the enemy once again set off an upsurge of "surrendering to the enemy under orders". In the battles of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army in 1944, many of them were fought against the puppet army that "surrendered to the enemy on order", while the puppet army that was unwilling to help the Japanese fight the civil war often surrendered as a formation. For example, when Luo Shuai seized the Julin Highway, there were 30 squadrons of puppet troops collectively anyway.

Let's look at the international battlefield -

In January, the Soviets completely lifted the German threat to Leningrad and inflicted heavy losses on the German Army Group North.

In June, the allied forces of the United States, Britain, Canada and other countries began the Normandy landing, officially opening up the second battlefield in Europe in World War II.

At the end of June, the Soviets completely routed the German Army Group Center, liberated the entire territory of Belarus and entered Poland.

In August, the U.S. Army captured Guam, the Japanese attack on Imphal failed, and the Japanese 15th Army Corps was completely annihilated.

In October, the U.S. troops landed in the Philippines, the Soviet army liberated the Yugoslav capital, and the Japanese army suffered a crushing defeat in the Battle of Leyte Gulf, and the Japanese navy basically lost its combat capability.

The international anti-*** situation is very good, except for China......

Zhou Hexuan felt the most distressed that after the defeat of Yuxianggui, Lao Jiang shouted the slogan of "100,000 youths and 100,000 troops". Teachers and students from many colleges and universities, including Central University, Southwest Associated University, Jinling University, and Tongji University, have signed up to join the army, and countless young intellectuals are buried in the front line of resistance against Japan.

Happily, the big traitor Wang Zhaoming is dead.

Wang Yaqiao sent someone to assassinate Chang Kaishen, but Chang Kaishen did not show up, and the assassin fired three shots at Wang Zhaoming. A bullet hit the left arm and was easily removed; A bullet hit the lower cheekbone, and it took three surgeries to get it out; The last bullet injured the spine, and the doctor did not dare to take it at all, and it remained in Wang Zhaoming's body for nearly ten years.

This is a lead bullet, lead poison spread to the spinal nerves, tormenting Wang Zhaoming all the time, and finally the main cause of Wang Zhaoming's death is also the spread of lead poison.

In fact, it is better for Wang Zhaoming not to die, and after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, he will be punished for treason, thrown into prison and continue to enjoy the torture of lead poison, it is too cheap for him to die now. Four months before this bastard's death, his puppet government forcibly conscripted Chinese women to serve as comfort women!

In general, although China experienced a major rout on the frontal battlefield in 1944, everyone knew that the victory of the War of Resistance was imminent, because the allies in the European theater were too powerful, and the Japanese army in the Pacific theater was already a grasshopper after autumn.

Therefore, people of insight urgently thought about the issue of post-war nation-building, and tried to avoid a civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and no one wanted to fight again!

The economic situation in the rear is miserable, not to mention the people at the bottom, and even many businessmen are shouting that they can't get enough to eat. There are only more than 500 factories left in the entire rear area, which has been halved compared with last year, and many big capitalists have declared bankruptcy.

Zhou Hexuan's factory in Sichuan has only one pharmaceutical factory, one acid and alkali factory and three daily necessities factories still operating, and they continue to lose money with the depreciation of the fiat currency.

Zhou Weilie kept coming back from Kunming to make telegrams, hoping that his parents could donate more materials to the school. At present, the students of Southwest Associated University often cannot guarantee two meals a day, and the students are starving as a whole, and sometimes they even faint suddenly during class.

Zhou Hexuan also wanted to donate, but unfortunately he couldn't buy a large amount of grain even if he had money, and the grain from various provinces had already been requisitioned to serve as military rations. He had previously purchased a large amount of wasteland in Sichuan and built a number of mutual aid farms, which had been gradually transferred to tenant households.

However, the tenants who had obtained the land asked Zhou Hexuan to take the land back. They are willing to rent land and divide two or three percent of the grain every year, because the national government's requisition policy is too terrifying, and it is better to honestly distribute some rations to Zhou Hexuan as a tenant to live.

In desperation, Zhou Hexuan could only become a big landlord again......
