Chapter 117 Establishment of the Huang-Huai-Hai Liberation Army (Supplemental Version)
In the middle of the night, the sky was overcast, the stars and moon were gone, and the earth was pitch black. The northwest wind www.biquge.info pen ~ fun ~ pavilion is whining, and it looks particularly sharp and harsh in the silent night.
In the compound of the headquarters of Longtou Town, more than a dozen sentries stood solemnly with guns, staring around with blazing eyes. The light of the room shone through the closed windows, shining on the sentry's spears, reflecting a hint of heroism.
In the hall, all the cadres of the Huanghuai and Jianghuai families were present, and it was probably the first time that such a meeting had been held, so everyone was a little restrained. All the Jianghuai cadres sat on one side of the long table, and all the Huanghuai cadres sat on the opposite side.
Ishikawa was the first to stand up and speak, his face flushed with the flames spit out of the brazier in the corner, but his expression was very serious, "Comrades, before the official meeting, first of all, I want to tell you a bad news!" Comrade Jin Kai, a veteran party member of our party during the period of the great revolution, an outstanding political worker and united front worker of our army, and the director of the Liaison Department of the Huanghuai Branch and secretary general of the Political Department of the Huanghuai Military Region, was honorably inaugurated at 7 o'clock this morning! Now, Comrade Luo Zhiping will talk about the sacrifice of Comrade Jin Kai. ”
Luo Zhiping stood up and said with a solemn expression that in January 1946, after Hu Tengxiao led his troops to revolt, the party sent Comrade Jin Kai to work in Hu Tengxiao's troops and serve as the political commissar of the uprising troops. In January 1947, Hu Tengxiao led his troops to defect and shamelessly kidnapped Jin Kai and four other political cadres. Comrade Jin Kai once served as a political instructor at the Whampoa Military Academy and had some personal friendships with Chiang Kai-shek, Chen Mosong, and others. After he was arrested, Chiang Kai-shek personally wrote a letter of persuasion, and Chen Mosong and others personally came forward to persuade him to surrender, and they made a wish that as long as Comrade Jin Kai made a statement that he was willing to cooperate and work with Chiang Kai-shek again, he would be given a high-ranking official and generous honor. However, Comrade Jin Kai sternly refused.
Chiang Kai-shek still did not give up, and asked Chen Mosong to send a plane to escort Jin Kai to Nanjing, and then he personally met Jin Kai twice, saying that he did not want Jin Kai to write a letter of repentance or a notice of leaving the party, as long as he verbally expressed his willingness to cooperate with Chiang Kai-shek again, any conditions and requirements could be put forward, but Comrade Jin Kai still resolutely refused. When the enemy failed to persuade him to surrender, he was killed this morning.
When Luo Zhiping said that Lao Jiang met Jin Kai twice, most of the participating cadres couldn't help but jump their eyelids. Lao Chiang's frame is very large, and under normal circumstances, after a Communist Party cadre is arrested or defected, even if he holds a higher position, Lao Chiang will not easily come out to meet him. In June 1931, after Xiang Zhongfa, then general secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, was arrested, Lao Jiang did not even give a meeting, and directly ordered his execution. Only the Communists who had a deep personal relationship with Lao Chiang would come out to meet Lao Chiang. This Jin Kai was actually met twice by Lao Jiang, which shows that he has a special status in Lao Jiang's heart.
Speaking of this, Luo Zhiping's eyes moistened, "Comrade Jin Kai has the noble character of a true Communist Party member, and he has truly worked hard without seeking fame and fortune. During the Great Revolution, he was a high-ranking cadre of our party. After the defeat of the Great Revolution, for various reasons, some comrades who had previously been of lower status than him later became his superiors. However, Comrade Jin Kai never felt resentment because of this, but devoted himself wholeheartedly, silently dedicated, and conscientiously worked hard to do a good job in every task assigned by the party. After his arrest, he could have easily attained prosperity and wealth. And he knew very well that if he didn't accept the glory and riches, he would lose his life. Despite this, he resolutely rejected the low-hanging riches. Comrades, in order to cherish the memory of this good comrade who did not lose the integrity of a Communist Party until the last moment of his life, I propose that all stand and pay a minute of silence to Comrade Jin Kai! ”
The cadres all stood up, took off their military caps, bowed their heads, and many of them burst into tears. At this time, the house was very quiet, and the wind outside could be heard.
Ishikawa wiped away his tears and continued, "After the silence, please sit down, comrades." ”
After sitting down, several cadres wiped their tears and said indignantly: "Comrade Jin Kai's blood cannot be shed in vain, we must avenge him!" "Political Commissar Jin is my teacher in the New Fourth Army, and I want to pay tribute to him with a battle victory!"
Ishikawa opened a leather bag on the table and took out a telegram, "Comrades, now I read out the central emergency telegram -
Shiliang Valley Luo Ding and comrades:
In view of the changes in the current war, it is very necessary for the two theaters of Huanghuai and Jianghuai to exercise unified leadership. For this reason, it was decided that, starting from now on, after the merger of the first and second theaters, the new theater will be called the Huang-Huai-Hai Theater in accordance with its historical evolution, and the Huang-Huai-Hai People's Liberation Army will be established, and the Huang-Huai People's Liberation Army and the Jianghuai People's Liberation Army will be abolished at the same time. In order to concentrate forces to crush the enemy's offensive, change the situation, recover Jianghuai, and prepare to dispatch to the outer front in the future, it is extremely necessary for the comrades of Huang Huaihai to unite and concord. Under the leadership of Shi, the major policies were jointly decided, and the battle commander Jiaogu was responsible.
Second, the Huanghuaihai People's Liberation Army was divided into military regions and field armies, with Ishikawa as commander of the Huanghuai Naval Region, Liang Pu as political commissar, Gu Yu and Ding Yicheng as deputy commanders, and Luo Zhiping as deputy political commissar. Gu Yu served as the commander of the Huanghuaihai Field Army, and Luo Zhiping served as the political commissar.
Third, Ishikawa was instructed to submit the plan for the reorganization of the troops to the Central Military Commission for examination and approval as soon as possible.
Fourth, according to the changes in the war, it is also necessary to set up the Huang-Huai-Hai Central Bureau, abolish the Huang-Huai Central Bureau and the Jianghuai Bureau, and make other arrangements for the members of the Huang-Huai-Hai Central Bureau.
Central"
Ishikawa finished reading the telegram with a smile on his face, and he then forwarded the telegram to Gu Yu, Luo Zhiping and others.
Gu Yu saw that everyone had read the telegram, so he smiled and said: "Comrades, Comrade Liang Pu is now organizing the rear support in Dongyue Mountain and dealing with the transfer and resettlement of the wounded of the personnel of the northern evacuation organs. Next, I would like to ask Comrade Ishikawa to tell you about the current situation and our plan for the campaign. ”
Ishikawa stood up and said with a serious expression, "Comrades, the current situation is very grim, the enemy on the southern front has deployed eight armies to the front, and a large number of heavy artillery and tanks are also attached, and it is estimated that several more armies will also be sent to the front in the future. On the northern front, the enemy's 73rd, 46th, and 12th armies have occupied the railway line near Dongyue Mountain, cutting off the connection between our Dongyue District and the Jinhaiwan area and Xianshan District. The scope of our Huang-Huai-Hai theater is not small, but due to the enemy's continuous attacks for half a year, many areas have become guerrilla zones. At present, we have several large liberated areas such as Luhe District, Dongyue District, Tianhai District, Xianshan District and Jinhaiwan District, but now only Luhe District, Dongyue District and Tianhai District can be connected. We are faced with the direct threat of being flanked and divided by the enemy from the north and south. We still have a difficulty, that is, our hole cards have been roughly figured out by the enemy. After Hu Tengxiao defected, he told the enemy everything he knew about our army. ”
When the cadres heard this, they all frowned, and their faces became gloomy.
At this time, Gu Yu interjected with a guilty face, "When our department withdrew from Jianghuai, Wang Jingfang, the head of the staff group of our headquarters, shamelessly betrayed the enemy with our confidential documents!" This Wang Jingfang is a red imp who has been tested by the 25,000-mile Long March and the eight-year War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, but he didn't expect to withdraw from Jianghuai this time, but he can't stand the test! ”
"Wang Jingfang is not the only one who can't stand the test this time," Luo Zhiping also said in a heavy tone, "After the main force of our army withdrew from Jianghuai, some cadres, fighters and militiamen who stayed behind enemy lines to fight guerrillas surrendered to the enemy because they were pessimistic and desperate about the future, and the enemy took out a lot of valuable information from the mouths of these traitors. ”
The cadres bowed their heads and remained silent. The brazier was accompanied by pale blue flames, exuding bursts of heat, but many people felt cold.
