Chapter 1293: The Great Uprising

Chen Yun, Li Fuchun, and other high- and middle-level leaders flew to the northeast, and the cadre brigades drawn from Shaanxi, Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei, Jinsui, Taihang, and other base areas were still rushing to the northeast in the form of a foot army, and it was the cadres who rushed to the northeast by boat from Shandong that really played a role, but they could only temporarily meet some of the needs of the Liaoning region.

In view of this situation, Chen Yun went to discuss with Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan, and demanded that 1,500 old Red Army cadres from various units be transferred to other jobs, and together with cadres from Shandong, they would form a task force to go to Liaoning to form political power at all levels and take over factories and mines.

The war is imminent, and it is taboo to transfer the backbone of the main force. However, in order to stabilize the situation in Liaoning as soon as possible and make it a powerful support base for a decisive battle against the Kwantung Army, Liu and Luo did not say a word, but immediately agreed with Chen Yun's opinion, and added 500 people, and transferred a total of 2,000 old Red Army cadres who were older to work in the localities.

One order after another was issued from the Political Department of the General Headquarters of the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Democratic Alliance. Many cadres who were on the way to the army immediately bid farewell to the troops after receiving the order. Go to the designated area to carry out the work. Even Luo Ronghuan's wife, Lin Yueqin, and Cai Zhong's wife, Ren Ying, were transferred to work in the local government and took up posts in the newly established Shenyang Municipal Government.

Among them, many people could not figure it out, and they sent telegrams to their brigade commanders, political commissars, column commanders, and even the political commissars, asking what mistakes they had made and why the troops did not want to do it themselves.

Liu Yimin asked Tan Zheng and Cai Zhong to draft a telegram of instructions on the transfer of backbone Red Army cadres to strengthen local work, explaining to the cadres the importance of strengthening local work.

When drafting the telegram, Cai Zhong specifically stated: "Comrade Liu Yimin pointed out as early as when he inspected the 1st Regiment of the 11th Red Division stationed in Weinan in Xi'an: Our army is not only a combat team, but also a work team and a production team. Those who do local work are honest and honest local cadres. Since our army entered Shaanxi, cadres have been transferred on many occasions to strengthen local work. The cadres transferred this time are only the first batch of cadres transferred by our army after it marched into the northeast, and with the acceleration of the process of passing through the northeast in the future, our army will also transfer the second, third, fourth, fifth, and even more cadres to strengthen local work. The Northeast is the home of our army. Our army should take root here and merge into the people of Northeast China. In the future, when we defeat the Japanese devils and establish New China, our armed forces will enter a period of regularization and construction, and the demobilization of cadres and soldiers will become a normal system, and we will concentrate our efforts on economic development and construction. Therefore, no matter which comrade is transferred, it is supreme honor, and he should take up a new post with a happy mood and full of pride. At the same time, Mr. Liu and Political Commissar Luo asked comrades who were transferred to work in the local area. We must always bear in mind that we are the old Red Army that has gone through the Long March and the old Eighth Route that fought bloody battles against the Japanese invaders, and we must bring the fine work style of the troops to local work, overcome all difficulties, and contribute to the establishment of the new people's political power in Northeast China and the development of industry, commerce, and agricultural production. ”

Under the orders of the Political Department of the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Democratic Alliance Army, the cadres of various units quickly reported to the designated places, formed work teams, and headed to various parts of Liaoning to begin the vigorous work of organizing local political power and local armed forces.

At this time, Liu Yimin's original strategy of instructing the Anti-Japanese Federation to disperse and conceal and mobilize the masses has worked.

The main force marched north to the northeast. In one fell swoop, important cities in Liaoning were captured, and important communication lines such as the Shenyang-Dalian Railway, the Beining Railway, and the Shenji-Shenyang Railway fell into the hands of our army. At the beginning, due to the need for covert actions of the troops, at this time, the main forces of our army gathered in the land of Liaoning. Sweeping through Liaoning, Zhao Yonggang's northward advance team and the small armed engineering teams of the anti-union troops began to be launched.

The Fushun Coal Mine was first discovered and mined by the Chinese. 1901 year. Wang Chengyao, the prefect of the candidate, and Weng Shou, the candidate of the county governor, had no hope of filling the vacancies, so they respectively set up the Fushun Coal Enterprises -- Huaxingli Company and the Fushun Coal Mining Company -- in the Qianjinzhai area of Fushun, which were the predecessors of the Fushun Coal Mine.

During the Russian invasion of Northeast China, they took a fancy to the Fushun Coal Mine. The Russians were not good at blatantly encroaching on the Fushun coal mine, so they played a conspiracy and hired Ji Fengtai, a Russian-Chinese, to let him first mine Fushun coal with Weng Shou's coal mining company in a joint venture. In this joint venture, the Russians exposed their hideous faces, and Lubinov intervened to control the business of the Fushun Coal Mining Company. In this way, the Russians also thought Weng Shou was in the way, and set up a Far East Forest Company, which annexed Weng Shou's Fushun Coal Mine in March 1903.

The Russians hadn't laughed for two years, but little Japan launched the Russo-Japanese War, defeated the Russians, and naturally accepted the privileges of Tsarist Russia in China and occupied Fushun's coal resources.

The little devils are more ruthless than the Russians, and the Russians have seized the Fushun Coal Mine in Weng Shou and pretended to adopt joint ventures and mergers and acquisitions to cover themselves with a fig leaf. The little devil was different, and directly sent three officers, Koyamada Shusuke, Kato Kisuke Oto, and Oyaki Qiaoduo, to the Huaxingli Company founded by Wang Chengyao to the west of the Yangbai River, to notify the cessation of all business, and to announce that the Huaxingli Company had been taken over by the Japanese army, and even the more than 4,000 tons of coal stored by the Huaxingli Company were confiscated by the Japanese army and transported back to Japan. At this point, the Japanese army occupied the entire Fushun coal mine.

The poor mine owner Wang Chengyao still dreamed that Fushun was the territory of the Qing Dynasty, and there was always a place to reason in the world, so he went to Fengtian to find the theory of the Kwantung Army, complained that the coal mine was invested by himself, and demanded that the coal mine be recovered. In desperation, Wang Chengyao wrote to the Qing government on December 27, 1905, requesting the Qing government to negotiate with the Japanese government through diplomatic channels to recover the mining rights. At this time, the Manchu government was as weak as snot and directly handed over the case to the General Bureau of Mukden Negotiations. This was done for four years, and the result was that the Manchu Qing Dynasty gave the Fushun Coal Mine to Japan on the condition that the Japanese pay taxes, and Wang Chengyao only received 155,000 taels of silver compensation from the Manchurian Railway, and finally died of depression.

The little devils seized the Fushun coal mine, and then set up a carbon mining society, and began to use force to drive out local farmers, seize land, and organize large-scale mining. Since then, a steady stream of high-quality coal has been transported by rail to Dalian and Lushun ports, and then transported back to Japan to meet the needs of Japanese industry.

From 1905 to the present, the Japanese army plundered nearly 200 million tons of high-quality coal from the Fushun coal mine, and grabbed a high profit of 2.628 billion yen. Among them, 233,000 tons of Fushun coal were plundered in 1907, which had risen to 1.311 million tons in 1911, 7.936 million tons in 1930, and 9.421 million tons in 1934, and now has an annual output of tens of millions of tons. However, due to the excessive oppression and exploitation of the miners by the Japanese army, coupled with the brilliant achievements of the Eighth Route Army, the output of the Fushun Coal Mine has declined this year due to the lack of labor, which directly affects the steel output of the Manchurian Showa Steel Plant in Anshan.

If there was no coal in Fushun to support Japan's industrial modernization, it is difficult to say whether the little devils would dare to launch the 918 Incident and the Lugou Bridge Incident. At the very least, they didn't have enough coal to make iron, and so they didn't have steel to build strong ships and cannons.

The Fushun area is the birthplace of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and a brick city built in the Ming Dynasty. After the large-scale mining of Qianjinzhai by the little devil, the center of the county was transferred to Qianjinzhai, and the city was very prosperous. Later, in order to expand the coal plunder, the little devil forced a total of 80,000 merchants and residents of Qianjinzhai to relocate and move to Xinfushun City. At this time, Fushun City had 200,000 residents and was an emerging industrial and commercial city.

Because the Eighth Route Army suddenly landed on the Liaodong Peninsula and killed the little devils by surprise, the Japanese invaders in the Fushun Coal Mine knew nothing about it, and they were still urging the miners to produce normally. Knowing that the Eighth Route Army occupied Shenyang, Liu Yimin issued a telegram, and Baofu of the Fushun Carbon Mine of the Manchurian Railway panicked and hurriedly contacted the Manchurian Railway headquarters. Kubofu was even more alarmed by this contact, because the headquarters of the Manchurian Railway in Dalian could not be contacted. Kubofu immediately knew that the electrification of the Eighth Route Army was real, the Kwantung Prefecture was lost, and the Manchurian Railway headquarters was finished. In desperation, he simply contacted the Fushun garrison directly, and the Fushun garrison replied that Kubaofu did not need to worry, the garrison could ensure the safety of the Fushun coal mine.

In fact, the Japanese troops living in the Fushun area also sent troops to reinforce Liaoyang, and the Japanese troops that were extracted had been wiped out by the Eighth Route Army, and the Japanese puppet army left behind was blowing air for Kubofu with their eyes closed. Whether they can keep Fushun or not, they don't know the bottom in their hearts.

Kubofu is a doctor of engineering, and he has read a belly full of mining knowledge, but he turns out to be an invader who tastes the life of Japanese warlords and chaebols.

Kubofu knew that the imperial army stationed in Fushun was insufficient, and Kwantung Prefecture and Shenyang were occupied by the Eighth Route Army, and it was impossible for the Fushun garrison to hold the Fushun coal mine. This Fushun coal mine is the heart of the Manchurian Iron and the engine of Japanese industry, and it will be troublesome if it falls into the hands of the Chinese army.

Kubofu had no choice but to report to the Kwantung Army Headquarters in Changchun and request the Kwantung Army to send a large force to garrison the Fushun coal mine.

The headquarters of the Kwantung Army was already in chaos, and the little staff officer who answered the phone did not know that the sky was high and the earth was thick, so he actually ordered Kubofu to organize the military police to protect the mines, organize the miners, stick to the Fushun mining area, and wait for reinforcements from the main force of the Kwantung Army.

Kubofu was desperate, but he didn't dare to order the bombing of the mine, because the Fushun coal mine was too important to Japan, and without the Fushun coal mine, the Japanese Empire did not know how many enterprises had to close, and he did not dare to bomb the mine.

As a result, Fushun Coal Mine Chang Baofu decided to carry out the orders of the Kwantung Army Headquarters and organize coal miners to protect the mine.
