Chapter 908: Each with His Own Scheming (continued)

Chapter 908 has its own scheming

Only then did Zhou Fu understand that it was not that Yu Xuezhong didn't want to occupy Linyi, but he didn't dare.

After Yu Xuezhong finished speaking, he stopped talking and looked out the window, as if the night outside the window evoked his memories.

Zhou Fu thought about it, and then said again: "Commander-in-Chief Yu, it's not that we can't wait, but that the strength of the Eighth Route Army is growing too fast. If the method is not adopted, Liu Yimin is afraid that it will not be long before he will raise an army of hundreds of thousands, and he will become a henchman of the party-state. We must take action to pull his back tui, disrupt his growth rhythm, and let them be consumed in the contest with the Japanese army. Otherwise, when the little devil is defeated, Liu Yimin will wave hundreds of thousands of battle-hardened elite soldiers to attack the city, won't the north and south of this great river be completely red? What else does the War of Resistance mean? ”

Yu Xuezhong said everything he should say, and Zhou Fu couldn't help it if he didn't listen to him. He also couldn't command Zhang Liyuan's department and Wuhua's cultural department, so he simply didn't speak. Correct, whatever he said, Zhou Fu had reasons to justify.

Seeing that Yu Xuezhong ignored himself, Zhou Fu had no choice but to recount in a low voice: "Commander-in-Chief Yu, the top priority at the moment is not to investigate whether Zhang Liyuan is right or wrong to occupy Linyi, it is to carry out the order of the Military Commission, but to order the 51st Army and the 57th Army to quickly drive and make operational preparations to block the Eighth Route Army to reinforce Linyi." Is it possible to ask Commander-in-Chief Yu to call Adviser Wang, Commander Mu, and Commander Miao to study it together, quickly mobilize the army, Feiteng Highway and Feiyi Highway, and avoid Liu Yimin from risking to mobilize the main force to attack Wuhua and Zhang Liyuan. ”

Yu Xuezhong ignored him, and his eyes were still looking out the window.

Zhou Fu is in a hurry, Yu Xuezhong has this attitude, wouldn't that provide convenience for the Eighth Route Army to return to Linyi?

Zhou Fu hurriedly saluted Yu Xuezhong and said loudly: "Commander-in-Chief Yu, in order to ensure the establishment of a consolidated Lunan base area, please order the 51st Army and the 57th Army to quickly dispatch to assist Zhang Liyuan and Wu Huawen in consolidating the victory effect!" ”

Yu Xuezhong looked out the window with a hint of ridicule in his eyes, and saw that Zhou Fu's heart was cold, so he had to retreat and send a report to Chongqing.

At this time, Chongqing was staging a good show of verbal warfare.

After receiving the telegram from the chairman, Zhou Enlai immediately drove to Chiang Kai-shek's official residence at No. 101 De'anli and asked Chairman Chiang Kai-shek to meet him urgently.

At this time, Chiang Kai-shek was in a particularly good mood due to the Battle of Changsha and the victory in southern Lunan, and he looked like he had a little red light on his face.

Zhou Enlai got straight to the point: "Chairman Jiang, just around dinner today, Zhang Liyuan, commander of the First Security Division of Shandong Province and commander of the First Guerrilla Column, and Wu Huawen, commander of the New Fourth Division, took advantage of the fierce battle between the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army on the front line and secretly attacked Linyi, the central county seat of the anti-Japanese base in southern Lunan. Our Party regarded this as a living example of the sabotage of unity against Japan, and the Central Committee authorized me to lodge a strong protest with the Central Committee, to the Chinese Civil Committee, and to Chairman Chiang! Ask the Military Commission to immediately order Zhang Liyuan and Wu Huawen to withdraw from Linyi, and apologize to the instructor of the Eighth Route Army! ”

Chiang Kai-shek's eyes were full of smiles: "Enlai, I haven't seen you for a while." How is it, working and living in Chongqing is still smooth, right? I heard that you brought your old father to Chongqing? Okay, Chinese philosophy is the most about filial piety, and it's very good that you do this, and I'm very pleased. ”

Zhou Enlai's righteous and stern protest to Chiang Kai-shek has led to talking about filial piety!

Zhou Enlai interrupted Chiang Kai-shek's tirade that was about to begin, and said: "Chairman Chiang, for the sake of the overall situation of the Anti-Japanese War, please immediately order Zhang Liyuan and Wu Huawen to withdraw from Linyi and apologize to the instructor of the Eighth Route Army!" ”

Chiang Kai-shek's mood did not change because Zhou Enlai interrupted him, and he still said with a pleasant face: "I know this place in Linyi, a county in the mountains of Lunan. When Taierzhuang was victorious, Pang Bingxun led his troops to defend Linyi, delayed the devil's attack method, and ensured the victory of the Battle of Taierzhuang. Well, you probably don't know. In the past, Li Zongren sent reinforcements to Linyi was Zhang Zizhong's department, this Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun had a grudge, Li Delin was so courageous, he actually let Zhang Zizhong lead the troops to reinforce, and the result not only won the battle, but also resolved the enmity between Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun. ”

Zhou Enlai interrupted Chiang Kai-shek's words again: "Chairman Chiang, for the sake of the overall situation of the Anti-Japanese War, please immediately order Zhang Liyuan and Wu Huawen to withdraw from Linyi and apologize to the instructor of the Eighth Route Army!" ”

Chiang Kai-shek was a little unhappy, and the smile in his eyes became thicker and thicker: "Enlai, Zhang Liyuan seems to be the commissioner and security commander of the third prefecture appointed by the Shandong Provincial Government, and Linyi is his district, is there anything wrong with him wanting to enter Linyi?" ”

Chiang Kai-shek's words sound very reasonable, and they are really not easy to refute.

Zhou Enlai asked rhetorically: "Listen to the chairman, Jinan was originally the capital of Shandong, and the Shandong Provincial Government and Security Command should go to Jinan." Isn't it? ”

The smile in Chiang Kai-shek's eyes disappeared suddenly, and he was like cold frost: "The Shandong Provincial Government and the Shandong Provincial Security Command were originally supposed to be located in Jinan, but Han Xiangfang retreated without a fight and was executed by the Military Commission; Later, Liu Yimin did not respect the military order and withdrew to Jinan without authorization. Otherwise, why does the Shandong Provincial Government and the Shandong Security Command need to be stationed in Linyi? ”

Zhou Enlai was tepid: "Does the chairman mean that General Liu Yimin and Han Xiangfang are also generals who fled without a fight?" ”

Chiang Kai-shek's voice was quick and powerful: "Don't mess around. Liu Yimin is a meritorious general in the Anti-Japanese War, how can Han Xiangfang compare with him? However, Liu Yimin disrespected the military orders and acted recklessly, daring to force the chairman of Shandong Province, appointed by the Nationalist Government, to retire and forcibly force the communications and liaison group to withdraw. Sooner or later, it will be disadvantageous for him to do so! Unfavorable! ”

Zhou Enlai looked at Chiang Kai-shek quietly, and waited for Chiang Kai-shek to break out, and then said: "Shen Honglie retired because he was suspected of colluding with the Japanese to ambush our Eighth Route Army's northward return army, and the evacuation of the communication and liaison group of the resident tutor was because Zhang Liyuan attacked Linyi. Chairman Chiang knows these things very well, so why do you have to ask me to repeat them? ”

Chiang Kai-shek was speechless for a while.

Zhou Enlai was speechless when he saw Chiang Kai-shek, and said: "Linyi was captured from the Japanese army by the Eighth Route Army in a bloody battle, and it is the center of the Lunan base area of the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army relied on Linyi to threaten the enemy in Xuzhou. As early as in Jinan, General Liu Yimin proposed to let Shen Honglie's Shandong Provincial Government act with the army and co-locate with the Senate of the Shandong Anti-Japanese Democratic Government established by the Eighth Route Army, but Shen Honglie refused. Later, Shen Honglie took advantage of the fierce battle on Longhai Road when General Liu Yimin led the main force of the Eighth Route Army instructor to fight fiercely on Longhai Road, and even ran to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army instructor and threatened to occupy Dadian. Is it wrong to say that he is suspected of colluding with the Japanese invaders? Now, after General Liu Yimin led the army to achieve a great victory in southern Lunan, first Yu Xuezhong grabbed the merit and reported the victory in advance, which made it impossible for our army's follow-up battle plan to be implemented, and then Zhang Liyuan and Wu Huawen took advantage of the main force of the instructor to go north to pursue the Japanese invaders and attack Linyi. Chairman Jiang, how do you evaluate Shandong's series of moves? Could it be that the futility of beating devils makes sense to poke a knife in the back? ”

Chiang Kai-shek was so anxious that he broke Zhou Enlai's words: "Zhang Liyuan's entry into Linyi was ordered by the Military Commission to strengthen the leadership of the anti-Japanese war behind enemy lines in southern Lunan. The Eighth Route Army must also carry out the orders of the Military Commission, otherwise it will be held responsible! You told Liu Yimin that you must not use force against Zhang Liyuan's troops, which is to attack friendly troops and undermine unity and resistance. The culpability is great! If there is any conflict, let Yu Xuezhong adjust it. He was the commander of the Sulu Theater and was responsible for the division of defense zones among the armies in Shandong. These things are his duties, and you can also fly to Shandong and work with Yu Xuezhong to adjust the relationship between the Eighth Route Army and the Northeast Army and the armed forces in Shandong. ”

Zhou Enlai was unmoved, and said word by word: "As the leader of our country's Anti-Japanese War, you should match the Japanese army with a trace of colleagues, and you must not favor one over the other." The instructor of the Eighth Route Army is the hero army with the most outstanding achievements in our team, and the rear base area will also be attacked by a miscellaneous armed force like Zhang Liyuan, is it tolerable or not? How is the behavior of Zhang Liyuan and his ilk different from Han Jian? What is even more terrifying is that the chairman of the committee did not distinguish between right and wrong and used an order of the Military Commission to favor Zhang Liyuan's sneak attack on friendly troops. General Liu Yimin is a relative of the chairman of the committee, because he is the division commander of the Eighth Route Army, the chairman dares to order Zhang Liyuan to copy his back road, if he is replaced by another general of the Eighth Route Army, won't he have to eat Zhang Liyuan's black gun? Chairman of the Committee, I will not go to Shandong for adjustment, and there is no need for adjustment in this matter. If there is anything to do, please ask the chairman to talk directly to General Liu Yimin. I believe that if the chairman of the National Committee does not give a fair and reasonable explanation to the instructors and officers of the Eighth Route Army, it will not be General Liu Yimin who will be disadvantaged, but Zhang Liyuan, Wu Huawen and others. They're going to shoot themselves in the foot! Leave! ”

After Zhou Enlai finished speaking, he no longer wanted to be verbose with Chiang Kai-shek, turned around and left.

Chiang Kai-shek called out to Zhou Enlai, thought for a while, and said: "If your party agrees to withdraw from northern Sichuan, Longnan, Weinan, and Shangluo, the Military Commission can order Zhang Liyuan to withdraw from Linyi." ”

Zhou Enlai was too lazy to rub his tongue with Chiang Kai-shek anymore, and said "These are two incompatible problems", and then left, so angry that Chiang Kai-shek looked at Zhou Enlai's back, and scolded twice hatefully, "Niang Xipi!" ”

As soon as Zhou Enlai left, Wang Shihe, the chief of the guard, reported that Dai Li was coming.

When Chiang Kai-shek heard that Yu Xuezhong did not cooperate, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and he reached out to pick up the Hotline on the table, and wanted to pass Zhang Xueliang's Hotline, first very politely shush the cold and ask for warmth, and then said that he wanted to invite Zhang Xueliang to Shandong to comfort the brothers of the Northeast Army. However, he had to send a telegram to Yu Xuezhong first, telling him to immediately carry out the telegram order of the Military Commission. Otherwise, it will be punished as disobeying military orders.

After the battle, Chiang Kai-shek called Mo Iruo, the leader of the guards and a group, and immediately dictated a telegram ordering Yu Xuezhong to immediately come forward to coordinate the division of the defense area between the Eighth Route Army and the Shandong Provincial Security Command, and resolutely stop the armed conflict between the two departments.
