It was a winter afternoon, and in the conference room of the Shandong Bureau of Dadian ** and the Shandong Military Region Headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, the cadres held notebooks and carefully recorded every word Liu Yimin said.

Ye Ting admired the knowledge of the chairman and Vice Chairman Zhou very much, and he himself was guided by Vice Chairman Zhou to participate in the revolution early. He knows that there are many talents in the country, including the early leaders Li Dazhao, Chen Duxiu, Qu Qiubai and Wang Ming, who is now losing the upper hand in the intra-party struggle, are all talented people who have made a chapter. However, Ye Ting never dreamed that Liu Yimin would be such a character. This young general, who looks so handsome that he is almost demonic, is full of wits and scheming, and bravely crowns the three armies, and he can't imagine that he can talk, talk about the past and the present, and quote from the side, and listening to him is simply a beautiful enjoyment. Looking at the silent appearance in the entire conference room, Ye Ting knew how much the backbone cadres of the Shandong army respected and cared for Liu Yimin. Don't say that Liu Yimin is mobilizing to march into the Northeast, even if he is now mobilizing to march into Tokyo, Japan, it is estimated that the cadres will respond to every call and will immediately follow him to Tokyo.

Ye Ting has a lot of ideas, and Xiang Ying, who is sitting on the side, has more ideas!

During this time, Xiang Ying's work in Shandong was very fruitful. Mainly because he's in a good mood. However, when she is free, Xiang Ying still thinks about many questions. One was when he was in the Soviet area, he once gave Bogu an idea not to let the chairman accompany the army on the Long March; The second is the issue of Wang Ming acting in accordance with Wang Ming's instructions when he presided over the Southern Bureau; The third is the problem of the New Fourth Army in southern Anhui being transferred too late and suffering undue losses; The fourth is the rectification problem that has just kicked off in Xi'an.

Xiang Ying is an old revolutionary and is very familiar with the struggle within the party. Knowing that at the beginning of the rectification movement, I am afraid that these things will have to be shaken out and talked about again. For example, the question of why he did not obey the order of the central authorities to transfer the military headquarters of the New Fourth Army to Jiangbei in advance is that no matter how good his reasons were at that time, I am afraid that others may not believe it. Moreover, when the wind is rectified, it is not a few leaders who sit together and calmly discuss the gains and losses of the strategy. That is a reckoning, a mass reckoning, and only talking about mistakes and not achievements. These things. Xiang Ying could think of it when he broke his toes. Because he went through the anti-AB regiment in the Soviet zone and knew how terrible it was. In the dead of night, Xiang Ying couldn't sleep as long as she thought of these questions.

It is said that Xiang Ying is a veteran member of the Politburo. He should return to Xi'an to work and participate in the decision-making of the central government. However, after being transferred from the New Fourth Army to Shandong, Xiang Ying felt that Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan were very broad-minded and easy to cooperate with the work. I asked to stay and work in Shandong. You must know that after the New Fourth Army military headquarters broke through and crossed the river, the central government's adjustment of Ye and Xiang's work was actually a kind of criticism and punishment for the two of them. It is conceivable that after Ye and Xiang return to Xi'an, they will inevitably conscientiously report their work to the central authorities. We should conduct an in-depth review of the mistakes that caused the military headquarters of the New Fourth Army to passively break through the encirclement.

Xiang Ying is not afraid to do a review. What I am afraid of is that the old accounts will be turned up endlessly, and unnecessary waves will be set off in the party, which will affect the party's cause.

Before today's meeting, Xiang Ying's heart finally landed. Because the order of the Central Committee to march into the Northeast is very clear, he is one of the deputy secretaries of the Northeast Bureau. He also served as the third political commissar of the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Allied Army. This means that he doesn't have to go back to Xi'an to participate in the rectification. Directly follow the main force of Shandong to the north.

Thinking of this, Xiang Ying felt that Liu Yimin was broad-minded. The human touch is also relatively strong, and he is a rare and remarkable character. Liu Yimin must know his thoughts, and letting him work in the northeast region with the army must have been requested by Liu Yimin to the central authorities. Otherwise, if you leave him in Shandong and team up with the ** who is about to go east to Shandong, it will be troublesome. **This person doesn't like to talk, no one knows what he thinks in his heart, and he is not as amiable as Liu Yimin.

When Xiang Ying's mind was turning over the river and the sea, Liu Yimin had basically finished explaining the meaning of China and the Chinese nation.

Xiang Ying heard it clearly, and what Liu Yimin finally said was that the Chinese nation is a nation with strong integration, and in history, the Xiongnu, Turkic, Xianbei, Mongolian, and Manchu people in Beidi have all entered the Central Plains and integrated into the Chinese nation. At present, the people of Outer Mongolia and the Far East are all part of the Chinese nation in Outer Mongolia, and we have the responsibility and obligation to liberate them from the iron heel of the Japanese invaders and reintegrate them into the big Chinese family.

This is the first point of Liu Yimin's why he wants to enter the Northeast.

Next, Liu Yimin talked about the important strategic position of the Northeast in the entire War of Resistance Against Japan. Liu Yimin divided this point into several parts, one is the military status of the Northeast, the other is the economic status of the Northeast, and the other is the political status of the Northeast. According to Liu Yimin, the economy of Northeast China has now surpassed that of Japan and has become an important support for the Japanese army to launch a war of aggression against China. The Kwantung Army was the largest strategic reserve group of the Japanese army. Occupying the Northeast and completely destroying the Kwantung Army and the puppet Manchurian Army is tantamount to pulling out the tires of the Japanese invaders, and the little devils can't surrender if they don't want to.

The third reason why Liu Yimin mentioned the reason for entering the northeast is to cooperate with the international anti-fascist battlefield.

Liu Yimin said: Now that the battle to defend Moscow has reached a critical moment, if Japan suddenly tears up the agreement with the Soviet Union and re-attacks the Urals region, not only will the situation on the battlefield in Moscow be reversed, but the Soviet Union may really face the danger of annihilation. In the direction of Southeast Asia, the Japanese army is attacking rapidly, and it will not be long before the Japanese army can completely crush the British, American, and Dutch armies in Southeast Asia and occupy Southeast Asia. After the Japanese army occupies Southeast Asia, it will be able to obtain the important resources such as oil and rubber that they urgently need, and the arrogance of aggression will become even more arrogant.

Summarizing the above three points, Liu Yimin waved his hand and said: "In order to defeat the fascists and respond to the Soviet Red Army and the British and American armies, our army must march to the northeast, take the northeast, Outer Mongolia, and the Far East, eliminate the Kwantung Army and the puppet Manchurian army, recover the lost territory, cut off the back road of the Japanese invaders, and make due contributions to the world anti-fascist war!" ”

After talking about the significance of marching into the Northeast, Liu Yimin began to talk about how to enter the Northeast.

According to Liu Yimin's thinking, before marching into the northeast, he must first beat the devils in Shandong, beating them all over the ground to find teeth, and had to retreat into Xuzhou, Jinan, and Qingdao. In this way, we can kill three birds with one stone, the passage for our army to advance north has been opened, and the 115th Division can also have a good situation after advancing eastward, and it can also mobilize the Kwantung Army to go south for reinforcements and reduce the pressure on our army to go north. To this end, all units must be mobilized quickly and prepare to launch a winter offensive to give a resounding slap in the face to the demons of the arrogant Japanese base camp!

Then Liu Yimin said: "After completing the winter offensive, our army marched into the northeast by two routes. All the way from Luxi, Qinghe to Hebei and Lubian, and go east of Hebei into Liaoning; All the way by boat, cross the sea from Rizhao's Shijiusuo and Jiaozhou Bay to the Dalian area. In the first battle, Dalian was to be taken, Dalian, the Japanese army's industrial production base in the northeast, and Dalian, the Japanese army's industrial production base in the northeast, should be quickly started to produce munitions to ensure the needs of the operation. After occupying Dalian, our army did not stop for a moment, using railway lines and highway lines to attack Huanglong, march to Shenyang and Changchun, destroy the headquarters of the Kwantung Army and the organs of the head of the puppet Manchukuo, and completely paralyze the command system of the Kwantung Army and the puppet Manchukuo Army. As long as the command system of the Japanese puppet army in the northeast is defeated, the campaign can be calmly designed, and the Ka Kwantung Army and the puppet Manchu army can be gradually divided and eliminated. ”

When he said this, Liu Yimin's eyes radiated a scorching light, and he said in high spirits: "When we destroy the Kwantung Army and the puppet Manchu army, take the northeast, and sweep through Korea along the way, then among all of you here, we will have secretaries and governors of the provincial party committees of Far Eastern Province, Outer Mongolia Province, Inner Mongolia Province, Heilongjiang Province, Jilin Province, Liaoning Province, Chahar Province, and Rehe Province, as well as the governors of the North and South Korean garrisons. Think about it, by that time, our army will expand to at least 2 million, wave the division into the customs, and all the North China Front, Central China and South China Japanese troops will have to tremble under our feet! You can imagine what it would be like to go to the Japanese archipelago and put Emperor Hirohito, who had launched a war of aggression, to trial. ”

It sounds like a psychopath in a dream, but the cadres love to hear it. The cadres who participated in the meeting didn't know who took the lead, so they all stood up from their seats and applauded warmly, which lasted for a long time!

Ni Hua and Zhao Xiaoman also attended the meeting, and their eyes that were fooled by Liu Yimin were about to drip water, and they looked at Liu Yimin stupidly, and stupidly applauded their comrades desperately, clapping their tender little hands red.

Liu Yimin has depicted the prospect of victory for the cadres, and provided the struggle goals and motivation for struggle, so it would be strange if the cadres were not excited!

Next, Liu Yimin asked Ye Ting to lead the General Staff Office to quickly formulate a winter offensive operational plan, asked Cai Zhong to lead the Political Office to immediately compile and print propaganda materials for the north's march into the northeast, asked Qian Zhuangfei to increase radio detection and listening, and collected the latest intelligence of the North China Front Army and the Kwantung Army, asked Xiang Ying and Li Yu to make overall arrangements for the winter offensive operations and the logistics preparations for advancing into the northeast, and asked Wu Zheng and Yang Zhicheng to command the logistics headquarters to pay close attention to the training of technical personnel and make preliminary preparations for accepting the Dalian Arsenal and the Shenyang Arsenal. We aim to be able to put it into mass production as soon as it is accepted. In general, the division of labor was that Liu Yimin, Luo Ronghuan, and Ye Ting were responsible for directing the campaign operations, and Xiang Ying and Cai Zhong were responsible for logistics support.

This is a big operation, and it is much more difficult than the potential leap to occupy Tianjin. Therefore, Liu Yimin's request should also be extraordinarily detailed. A department by department detailed arrangement, a link by link carefully explained. It wasn't until 11 o'clock at night that the cadres' stomachs were rumbling with hunger, and the meeting was over.

The demons in the Japanese army base camp in Tokyo probably never dreamed that when they were intoxicated with the joy of victory in the early days of the Pacific War, in the ordinary town of Dadian, Shandong, China, Liu Yimin had already raised his war knife and was about to cut down to the northeast, which they regarded as their lifeline!
