Chapter 606 Report (continued)

After the morning report, because some things still needed to be discussed and studied, the leaders did not give further specific instructions on the work in Shandong, but only discussed it more broadly for a while, and asked Liu Yimin to have lunch with them, and in the afternoon they gave a detailed report on Soong Meiling's two visits to the instructor to express condolences, Liu Yimin's visit to Xuzhou to meet Chiang Kai-shek and Li Zongren, and the details of the meeting with Yan Xishan.

Lunch is Shaanxi's whistle noodles, the leaders who participated in the Sixth Plenary Session of the Central Committee each held a Yaozhou porcelain bowl, lined up to eat, and then a few people in a bunch, began to chat and eat, and the courtyard was full of the sound of eating noodles.

Liu Yimin and the chairman came late and lined up at the back, and by the time they had finished eating, some comrades had already finished the first bowl and began to line up for the second bowl.

After finishing the meal, Liu Yimin glanced at it, He Long was waving to him, and walked over with a big bowl.

He Long was a loud voice, and when he saw Liu Yimin seeing him and walking towards him, he stood up and said, "Senior Commander Liu, Brother Liu, I've been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Liu Yimin grinned, walked over and sat down, and said, "Mr. He, you came early, brother, I'm late." ”

Guan Xiangying on the side said, "Don't talk yet, eat quickly." It's late and it's gone, you're so big, you have to eat two big bowls. ”

Liu Yimin smiled again, ignored He Long, picked up the bowl and snorted and ate.

A big bowl of whistle noodles under the stomach, Liu Yimin's face was sweaty, he reached out to touch his belly, and said to He Long and Guan Xiangying with a smile: "More?" ”

He Long nodded: "If you want it, another bowl"

Two people went to line up again with large bowls.

Standing at the end of the line, He Long asked, "Brother, where is the artillery regiment you gave me now?" I can't open my eyes even when I'm waiting."

Liu Yimin made a silent calculation in his heart and said: "It should be in southern Hebei now, and it is estimated that it will soon converge with the main force of the 129th Division." When the time comes, they will send someone to you. ”

He Long asked again: "What kind of cannons are they?" ”

Liu Yimin said: "The artillery regiments of the four divisions are all equipped with the same equipment, all of which are 24 field guns and 12 mountain guns, which is equivalent to the entire equipment of an artillery wing of a special division of the Japanese army. ”

When He Long heard this, he was anxious: "There are so many cannons, and there are also shells, did you send troops to escort them?" No, I won't eat, go to Political Commissar Deng, I have to ask him to discuss it with Division Commander Liu, and send the main force to meet him. If it falls into the hands of devils, it's over. ”

After speaking, Liu Yimin didn't hold it, He Long took the empty bowl and ran to find Deng Xiao*ping.

Liu Yimin couldn't help muttering: "This Mr. He, it's just that he saw the cannon and didn't die, and he obviously forgot his righteousness for profit?"

I heard the person in front of me say: "If you give me an artillery regiment, I won't eat anymore, and I will have to run to arrange how to receive the artillery." ”

When Liu Yimin saw it, it turned out to be Xiang Ying of the New Fourth Army, who he had just met when he was drinking last night, so he smiled and said, "It turned out to be Secretary Xiang." It doesn't matter, it's relatively easy for us to get in touch and we can support each other in the future. ”

Xiang Ying's qualifications are very old, and his historical status in the party is also high. However, when he was in the Soviet area, he belonged to the Bogu and Li De factions, and I don't know if his thoughts were touched after attending the Sixth Plenary Session of the Central Committee. However, he is indeed an out-and-out **.

Although Liu Yimin made outstanding military achievements, after all, he was young and had little qualifications, and he did not know enough about the complex personnel relations within the party. Therefore, before returning to Shaanxi, he repeatedly thought that after he returned to Shaanxi, he should listen more and speak less at the meeting, so as not to hurt his comrades between words.

Historically, when the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee of the CPC Central Committee was convened, the 115th Division had not yet advanced eastward into Shandong, and Luo Ronghuan spoke at the meeting on behalf of the 115th Division on 7 October. Now, Luo Ronghuan has already been transferred to work in the Red Seventh Army and is in Shandong, and it is impossible to come back to participate in the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee. I don't know what Commander Lin and Nie of the 115th Division said at the meeting.

At dinner last night, Liu Yimin had already taken a general look, except for his own instructor who was too far away and was unable to send more personnel to attend the meeting, the principal leaders of the other units basically rushed back for the meeting. Only the independent division could be in front of the attack of the Japanese army in Shanxi, and the combat mission was heavy, and the division commander Xu Xiangqian could not return, and Yang Shangkun, Deng Ping, and Chen Changhao all returned.

After Liu Yimin and Xiang Ying finished talking, it was also their turn to eat, the two of them cooked one after the other, and Xiang Ying also followed Liu Yimin to the table where Guan Xiangying and them were eating.

Xiang Ying thanked Liu Yimin while eating noodles, saying that he was grateful to the instructor for replenishing weapons, ammunition and medicines for the four detachments, and since Gao Jingting met Liu Yimin, he has become more talkative and disciplined.

Liu Yimin took the opportunity to tell Xiang Ying that he had met Gao Jingting at Luoma Lake, had a deep talk with him, and put forward some suggestions on the work of the four detachments, the central meaning of which was that there was something to be reported to the military department in a timely manner, and to ask for instructions from Commander Ye and Secretary Xiang in a timely manner. If there is anything you can't figure out or understand, you can go directly to Secretary Xiang to report, Secretary Xiang is an old **, an old leader, and there are many ways to solve his doubts and guide the work of the four detachments.

Xiang Ying was very happy about this, and said that Division Commander Liu really not only has a high level of military command, but also has a high level of political consciousness, so it is no wonder that the instructor can achieve such great achievements. I have to thank Liu Yimin again, if it hadn't been for the good fight of the Seventh Army Corps and the early occupation of Shaanxi, Chiang Kai-shek would have sat down to negotiate, and the guerrillas of the Red Army in the south would probably have suffered even greater losses.

Seeing the sincerity of what Xiang Ying said, Liu Yimin had mixed feelings in his heart, thinking about the losses caused by Xiang Ying's reluctance to leave southern Anhui in history, and then thinking about Xiang Ying's huge prestige and personality charm in the New Fourth Army, he felt that it was necessary to ring the alarm bell for him in advance. Of course, now and unlike in history, there are powerful instructors in Shandong, and it is difficult to say whether Chiang Kai-shek dared to launch the Southern Anhui Incident again, but it is not a good thing that the military headquarters of the New Fourth Army has been in southern Anhui for a long time, and a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall

Liu Yimin drank two sips of soup and said to Xiang Ying: "Secretary Xiang, this whistle noodles in Shaanxi are a must, and the most famous one is Qishan whistle noodles. I heard that the local people who live relatively wealthy are all killing pigs during the New Year and making an iron pot whistle, which can be put away for a year. Jiangnan has a humid climate, but you can't eat this delicious food. ”

Xiang Ying looked at Liu Yimin and said, "Senior Liu, you are so young, where do you know so many things?" When you come to the New Fourth Army, I will invite you to eat Hui cuisine in southern Anhui. Like what braised head and tail, braised paddling, pickled fresh osmanthus fish, baogong fish, Cao Cao chicken, braised peach blossom mandarin fish, tiger skin hairy tofu, mushrooms, stone chicken, Huizhou Yuanzi, Li Hongzhang, hodgepodge, Luzhou roast duck, etc., you can't go home. If you want to eat noodles, Tongcheng's mutton noodles are very distinctive. ”

Liu Yimin finished eating the noodles in one breath, then looked at Xiang Ying and said: "Although the famous dishes in southern Anhui are good, they are surrounded by the muzzles of the Japanese army and the Kuomintang army, and I won't go to that place for the time being." Secretary Xiang, the last time I met Gao Jingting, I told him very clearly that the Japanese forces in northern Jiangsu are weak, and it is suitable for our army to let go of development, and the New Fourth Army will be like a fish returning to the sea when it arrives in northern Jiangsu, and it will soon develop and grow. I asked him to report it to you, but I don't know if he did. ”

The tone of his words was wrong, a bit condescending and domineering, Xiang Ying was disgusted at once and said nothing.

Seeing that Xiang Ying's face was wrong, Liu Yimin immediately woke up and realized that there was something wrong with his tone, which made Xiang Ying disgusted. After thinking about it, he still didn't want to give up, so he whispered again: "Secretary Xiang, you are the senior leader of our party and our army, and you are the old leader." I'm young, I can't speak, I'm sorry. I mean, if you put the military headquarters of the New Fourth Army in southern Anhui, too close to Gu Zhu and them, that guy is an old ** element. As the saying goes, you can't have the heart to hurt people, and you can't do without the heart to defend people, you and Ye Jun have to be vigilant, and it's best to lead the military department across the river as soon as possible. In the future, the New Fourth Army and the Eighth Route Army will meet in the Henan-Anhui Soviet region, echo each other, support each other, and fight more big battles and eliminate more devils. Our army in Shandong has captured a large number of troops, and it can also supplement and support the New Fourth Army at any time. ”

Xiang Ying sulked his head and said angrily: "Now is the period of unity and resistance to war, and Chiang Kai-shek does not have the guts"

Liu Yimin was anxious when he heard it, and this attitude will not be able to suffer a big loss in the future

Without waiting for Liu Yimin to speak, Guan Xiangying on the side spoke: "Old Xiang, I wonder if what Master Liu said is right, are we still suffering a small loss in the past?" I don't know about the situation of the New Fourth Army, but the situation in Shanxi is very complicated, and Yan Xishan now does not have the same enthusiasm for our army as he did at the beginning of the war, and he always wants to limit the area of activity of our army. Even when our army went out to raise food, there was Yan Jun behind to supervise. Fortunately, our army is strong in Shanxi, and Yan Xishan can't do anything in a hurry. The New Fourth Army is tantamount to hanging behind the enemy, and it is better to be cautious in everything. ”

Xiang Ying said: "Yes, this problem has to be studied carefully. However, in any case, our army is unwilling to abandon the base area in southern Anhui like this."

Hearing Xiang Ying say this, Liu Yimin stopped talking. He knew that Xiang Ying was the supreme leader who insisted on guerrilla warfare in the south, and he had his own hills and valleys in his belly. As long as he can recognize the danger, he will naturally take countermeasures.

After eating, Liu Yimin continued to report to the chairman.

Liu Yimin first gave a detailed report on Soong Meiling's two visits to the instructor to express his condolences to the troops, then reported on his meeting with Chiang Kai-shek and Li Zongren in Xuzhou, and finally reported on his meeting with Yan Xishan.

The chairman attached great importance to the meeting with Chiang Kai-shek and asked very detailed questions, and Liu Yimin was tantamount to explaining the situation at that time word for word.

At the end, the chairman asked: "Comrade Liu Yimin, the Battle of Wuhan is over, according to your judgment, will Chiang Kai-shek compromise with the Japanese invaders?" ”

Liu Yimin replied: "Chiang Kai-shek will not compromise with the Japanese invaders, this is clear. However, the top level of the Japanese cabinet may review the situation after the Battle of Wuhan, and it is very likely that the strategy will be adjusted, and the focus will be changed from attacking Chiang Kai-shek to luring Chiang Kai-shek to surrender. According to the interrogation of Tani Toshio and Otaka Kamezo, the Japanese base camp set up several working groups specializing in the lure of major Chinese political figures, which were roughly divided into four categories, one was dedicated to luring Chiang Kai-shek, the name was Kiri Gong, and the host was Takeo Imai. One is to lure down the political forces in the Kuomintang who are dissatisfied with Chiang Kai-shek, such as Wang Jingwei is the key target of the Japanese army, and the host is Ying Zuo Zhenzhao. According to Gu Shoufu's confession, the high-ranking Japanese spy has negotiated with Wang Jingwei's representative Mei Siping many times, and the two sides seem to have reached a consensus. The third category is the leading figures who specialize in luring the Manchu imperial family and the remnants of the Beiyang warlords, Tang Shaoyi's assassination by the military commander should be the Japanese army's luring activities discovered by Chiang Kai-shek and ordered Dai Li to carry it out. The fourth category is dedicated to luring warlords and ethnic minority leaders such as Yan Xishan. It's a pity that Gu Shoufu and Ogaka Kamizo are both professional soldiers, and they know very little things, if they can catch an old spy like Tohihara, many things will be clear. ”

After hearing this, Vice Chairman Zhou thought for a while and asked Liu Yimin about the Japanese army's luring of Wang Jingwei, and the ** communication and liaison group of the resident tutor knew about it.

Liu Yimin replied that he did not know, the matter was very important, and the instructor had no right to report to Chiang Kai-shek before reporting to the Central Committee.

Vice Chairman Zhou nodded, and then asked Liu Yimin how many people there were in the communication and liaison group sent by Chiang Kai-shek, and who were the people, and the background was clear.

This question stopped Liu Yimin, his face was flushed, and he was embarrassed to report that he and Luo Ronghuan were too busy, and they hadn't had time to ask about it, and they hadn't seen anyone from the communication team, so I really didn't know how many people came, and who they were. Send a telegram back to ask Qian Zhuangfei and Wu Zheng, they know about this.

Vice Chairman Zhou criticized Liu Yimin for missing a string in his mind, he didn't even care about such a big matter, it was important to fight a war, and these things were even more important. Like the plane attack this time, if Liu and Luo asked casually, there would not be such a big mistake. Wang Shangwu and Wang Laohu have already reported it, and the Tai'an detachment has also monitored it for so long, Cai Zhong, Zeng Zhongsheng, Qian Zhuangfei, and Hu Di all know about it, and the goal is very clear, but there is no evidence, and they are still thinking about digging traps to force the spies to show up, so they did not estimate that the goal of the spies is very clear, and what they are pursuing is to succeed in one blow, where will they be easily fooled. Underestimating the strength and means of the spies, they suffered such a big loss as a result, sacrificing Li Chengyi, Lu Wen, Wu Le, and five pilots, as well as five planes. Fortunately, Liu Yimin was lucky enough to parachute successfully, otherwise, the loss would be immeasurable. Japanese spies are like this, and the people in the ** communication and liaison group are probably all well-trained intelligence officers, which is equivalent to a time bomb placed on the instructor, and no one can say when it will explode. This matter cannot be finished here, and foolproof measures must be taken, otherwise there will be heavy losses.

Chen Yun interjected and said that the Japanese female spy who caused Liu Yimin to be in distress was not caught, since she was so good, she would not give up, and she would look for Liu Yimin again. It's scary to think about it, her target is Liu Yimin, Liu Yimin is good, and it is not easy for Japanese spies to succeed. In case the female spy dog jumps over the wall and attacks other people, the danger will be too great, maybe a dozen will be accurate. This thing can't be a child's play, you must find her and kill her completely, so that it can be over.

said that Liu Yimin kept reviewing, and repeatedly promised that he would personally deploy after he returned, set up a situation to lure the enemy to attack, and definitely eliminate this female spy.

The chairman then asked Yan Xishan's performance and asked Liu Yimin to say in more detail.

Liu Yimin had no choice but to report the situation of seeing Yan Xishan again, including the conversation with Yan Xishan at the Hukou Iron Cable Bridgehead, which was memorized word for word.

The chairman was very satisfied with the work done by Liu Yimin in meeting with Yan Xishan, and praised him a few words. In the end, the chairman still asked Yan Xishan if he would join the enemy.

Liu Yimin replied that it was unlikely that he would openly surrender to the enemy, but once the **** was set off within the Kuomintang and the main force of our army left Shanxi, Yan Xishan would inevitably follow Chiang Kai-shek's blind movement, and after encountering a counterattack by our army, he might also secretly compromise with the Japanese army. But on the whole, Yan Xishan is a talent, and his shortcomings lie in being good at speculation, and he has a sense of anti-communism in his bones. For Yan Xishan, he should still do more work and pull him together to resist Japan. He is a smart man, and after being guided, he will see the anti-Japanese situation clearly. Of course, if he resolutely surrenders to the enemy or openly, it is not a bad thing, and we can completely adopt the method of division and disintegration, pull away the troops and cadres of the Jin Sui Army who insisted on the War of Resistance, and then supplement it with force to solve the problem of Shanxi completely.

Then, the chairman asked Liu Yimin to report on Ni Hua's work in the United States, focusing on the real attitude of the US government towards China's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and whether there was any possibility of participating in the war.

Liu Yimin is not sure about this now. Historically, when the Japanese army launched the Pacific War, the United States naturally wanted to enter the war. Now that the squadron is fighting so well, the Japanese army is incapable of waging the Pacific War, and Liu Yimin honestly doesn't know it. Sometimes he even wonders if he should make a strategic contraction, so that the little devils will have the illusion and continue to act according to their strategy.

One thing is certain, Germany has already sharpened its knives, they will inevitably blitzed Poland and start World War II, according to the mentality of the little devils, they will never be indifferent to the results of the German army, they are thinking day and night about how to express themselves on the world stage and get a piece of the pie.

Liu Yimin reported on Ni Hua's meeting with President Roosevelt in the United States, and then said carefully and carefully: "Chairman, Vice Chairman Zhou, Commander-in-Chief, and Leaders: According to Ni Hua's report, there are now signs of war preparations in the United States, and the US Government's attitude toward Japan has also changed markedly. As for whether the United States will enter the war, it is impossible to draw a clear conclusion at this time. However, one thing can be concluded that the US Government's policy is influenced by US interests, and that after the Japanese occupy Guangzhou, they will certainly occupy Hong Kong in the future, and there will be a conflict of interest with Britain and the United States. I think that this is enough, and the Americans will not suffer such a loss as little Japan. As long as they make a fuss, it will not be far from a direct war between the United States and Japan. ”

The report was all reported, and the chairman explained to Liu Yimin, originally thinking that Liu Yimin had brought Tang Xingying's mother and son back together, and had already notified her parents and asked Liu Yimin to go back to see his father-in-law and mother-in-law. If you want to see Chen Yaoguang's parents, they both live in Xi'an. However, we must hurry up the time, and tomorrow we will arrange for Liu Yimin to speak at the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee, the content of which will be organized by ourselves, and the theme will be the situation of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the principles we should adhere to. The purpose of giving an afternoon of talk is to broaden the horizons of the comrades and further unify their thinking. The Sixth Plenum has been in session for too long, and it is time to end it.

Liu Yimin has been away from Shaanxi for a whole year, and he also wants to go home to see his father-in-law and mother-in-law. Since the chairman had been granted leave, he didn't even eat dinner at the meeting, hurriedly said goodbye to the chairman and the boss, and took Li Hongjun and his special operations team to Xi'an City on horseback.

Tang Xingying's father Tang Haiyan has been working in the Tongguan gold mine since he arrived in Xi'an, and his mother Li Yun was arranged by Liu Yimin to teach English and French at Northwest University.

After receiving the notice that Liu Yimin's family wanted to return to Xi'an, Tang Haiyan rushed back from the Tongguan gold mine, and Li Yun also asked for leave from the school. As a result, waiting and waiting, what came was bad news from the radio, and the two of them were stunned. Fortunately, it didn't take long for the news that Liu Yimin had successfully parachuted, and yesterday he received a notice that Liu Yimin would arrive in Xi'an in the evening.

Li Yun was worried that Liu Yimin would not go home after returning to Xi'an, so he had to let Tang Haiyan think of inquiring about it, see where Liu Yimin lived after he arrived in Xi'an, and tell him to go home and have a look.

Tang Haiyan didn't go, saying that Liu Yimin would definitely come back to take a look, and he would not be a leader of his size, so he would not be polite at all. Besides, he is an orphan in this world, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law are his parents, the closest people, how can he not come back to see it?

Saying this, Li Yun remembered what the newspaper said about Liu Yimin and Ni Hua, and nagged that he didn't know if people still recognized him as his mother-in-law. There are so many excellent girls around him, and his daughter doesn't know how bitter she is, maybe the young couple has already divorced, otherwise why don't you take yourself to Shandong to see her grandson? Nagging, nagging, nagging tears out.

Tang Haiyan was upset when he heard this, so he told Li Yun, don't listen to the nonsense in the newspaper, her daughter is the wife of Liu Yimin Ming Media, and she gave birth to two white and chubby boys, there is no merit and hard work, where can you say divorce if you divorce, don't want to say don't? is really divorced, the two sons are still Liu Yimin's sons, and the daughter is still Liu Yimin's son's mother, and this blood relationship cannot be broken at any time. Besides, ** but advocates monogamy, the son-in-law is a ** official, a famous general with a heavy army and a hundred responses, he will never casually violate the discipline of the ** industry. Even if Ni Hua is very good and has made a great contribution, and his son-in-law has changed his mind, then he has to give an explanation to his daughter, and he will never let the three of them lose their support. Didn't the central government send someone to inform you? The son-in-law is back, and he will definitely come home to visit, so hurry up and prepare, maybe it will be soon.

As he was talking, he heard the neighing of war horses outside the courtyard gate. Tang Haiyan was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth and said: "Look, come back, hurry up and cook, I'll pick it up."
