Boom, Jiang Jun fired cold artillery again. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoIn this silent cold night, the sound of this explosion will make the hearts of the weak-willed tremble.

Luo Zhiping gasped, his mouth opened wide, but he couldn't speak for a while.

In fact, regarding the issue that the war of self-defense may not be supported by the common people, Luo Zhiping also had a premonition similar to Gu Yu's before. After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Chiang Kai-shek clique insisted on destroying the Communist Party by force, relying on its absolute military strength being absolutely stronger than the Communist Party and the so-called orthodox status of the central government. Although mediated by the U.S. government, which was more inclined to peaceful evolution, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party signed an armistice agreement on January 10, 1946. But since then, Lao Chiang has repeatedly made gains and killed the army, and has rehabilitated, harassed and provoked the liberated areas. At that time, even the embarrassed appearance of the liberated areas could be seen, and a large-scale civil war was already on the verge of breaking out. One day, when Luo Zhiping was chatting with several farmers in the station, they all said worriedly: "Finally, the Anti-Japanese War was won, and I thought that I would be able to live a stable life in the future, but now I have to fight a civil war again." Hey, it's all Chinese, so why call around? In order not to fight a civil war, can't you make concessions to the Kuomintang? ”

Luo Zhiping patiently explained: "We have already made concessions to the Kuomintang. In order to avoid civil war, we ceded the eight liberated areas in the south shortly after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. However, the Kuomintang has gained an inch and now wants to force us to hand over all the liberated areas and the army. ”

The peasants said, "As long as there is no civil war, you will give up all your territory." ”

Luo Zhiping was stunned and didn't speak for a while. Wei Yi, who participated in the chat, couldn't help but shout: "You actually want us to hand over all the liberated areas to the Kuomintang? Is it any good for you that the Kuomintang is coming? Now the Communist Party has implemented rent and interest reductions, so that you can have no worries about food and clothing. If the Kuomintang comes, won't the high land rent and usury crush you? You've all seen the opera "The White-Haired Girl", right? Isn't Yang Bailao in the play a farmer like you? Isn't he just ruined by high land rent and usury? His only daughter was snatched away by the landlord, and he was forced to commit suicide. If the Kuomintang comes, won't the fate of Yang Bailao also happen to you? ”

What made Wei Yi and Luo Zhiping stunned was that the peasants actually pouted and said: "That Yang Bailao's family is ruined because he has no ability, and he is a wreck." The name of the place in the play is Yang Gezhuang, which means that Yang Bailao should be the land-sitting household of Yang Gezhuang, and to put it bluntly, it is the head snake of the land. The proprietor, Huang Shiren, is estimated to be an outsider, and his father or grandfather must have fled the famine to come to Yanggezhuang to ask for food. If the Huang family sits on the ground, then the place is not called Huanggezhuang? Why did outsiders like Huang Shiren finally turn into the big proprietors of Yanggezhuang? And why did a local snake like Yang Bailao suffocate for ten years, and in the end he only relied on the tenant's land to eat? Isn't it because Yang Bailao himself is incompetent? ”

The middle-aged farmer with a mustache squinted his eyes and added: "In the play, it is said that Yang Bailao owed Huang Shiren twenty-five yuan and five cents and a stone and five buckets of rent and was crushed to death?" Before the Anti-Japanese War, there was a year when I owed the owner more money and rent than him, and I was not as miserable as Yang Bailao. Besides, Yang Bailao owes Huang Shiren money and rent, and he can't afford to pay it back, so he won't be ruined? Since Huang Shiren Chinese New Year's Eve forced into debt, why don't you Yang Bailao run out with your daughter to find a way to live? Huang Shiren didn't send a dog leg to watch you like a prisoner? Why don't you run yet? Your broken family has nothing, what are you still nostalgic for? You Yang Bailao dare to drink brine to commit suicide, why don't you dare to run out to find a way to live? He is not afraid of death, is he afraid that he will not be able to find a way to live when he goes out? ”

At this time, several peasants said together: "As long as we can live a stable life, the Kuomintang is coming, and there is nothing to be afraid of renting usury on the high ground." No matter how bad the Kuomintang is, it will not be like the Japanese devils to carry out the Nanjing Massacre and engage in the three-light policy, right? The Japanese devils wish that we Chinese would die so that China could become their Japanese world. Could it be that the Kuomintang will also need the Chinese to die in the world? They are all dead, who will give them public rations? You can't expect the Japanese to pay public grain to the Kuomintang, right? Alas, when the Japanese devils came in, we Chinese didn't have a day of peace. Oh, as long as the world is peaceful, the Kuomintang will let them do it if they want to sit in the world. ”

This chat shocked Luo Zhiping. Subsequently, he urgently met with several responsible cadres of the Jianghuai sub-bureau to analyze and study the current political situation. It was unanimously agreed that without the immediate adoption of a new rural policy, it would be difficult for the Communist Party to gain the support of the majority of the peasants in the event of a war of self-defense. Therefore, in the name of the Jianghuai Branch, they sent a telegram to the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, suggesting that the policy of rent reduction and interest reduction implemented during the Anti-Japanese War be changed to a new policy of confiscating the landlords' land and distributing it to the peasants.

Coincidentally, around the time of the telegram, the responsible persons of the other liberated areas also reported to the Central Committee that land reform should be carried out in order to win the support of the peasants for our party in the impending war of self-defense. Soon after, on May 4, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued instructions to the liberated areas, ordering them to carry out land reform.

After the land reform began, the peasants, who had been indifferent to the arrival of the Kuomintang, also changed their attitude, and they said to the cadres of the land reform: "The New Fourth Army cannot let the Kuomintang come, if they come, won't our land be divided in vain?" "In the early days of the self-defense war, the troops fought and retreated because of operational needs. Whenever they retreated, the masses would reluctantly hold the hands of the soldiers and say, "When will the New Fourth Army come back?" We are all looking forward to your return soon. ”

At the end of last year, after the loss of the Lin River, the main force could no longer gain a foothold in the Jianghuai region. Some cadres suggested that the troops should be dispersed to fight guerrillas, but Gu Yu strongly opposed it. At that time, although Luo Zhiping supported Gu Yu's opinion at the meeting, he did not understand why Gu Yu strongly opposed the scattered guerrilla fight. It was only now, listening to Gu Yu's words, that Luo Zhiping suddenly realized: It turned out that Gu Yu was afraid that after the guerrilla attack was dispersed, the common people would feel that the Communist Party had dispersed. Once the common people have such a sense of disappointment and have no hope in their hearts, a series of unimaginable dangerous consequences will arise.

After being silent for a while, Luo Zhiping opened his mouth and asked Gu Yu, "Old Gu, if you really fail, then, what are you going to do?" ”

Gu Yu leaned back in the chair again, looked up at the beam, and looked very indifferent, "At that time, I will take some people back to my hometown in Hunan to be the king of the Red Mountain." You know, some places in Hunan are famous bandit dens, and changing the dynasty can't change the bandit world. Bandits can be bandits for generations, and I think I should be able to do the same, and save a little bit of fire for the party for a long time in some remote place. Of course, the day when the fire is rekindled will not be seen in our generation! ”

After a pause, he suddenly sat up again, his eyes red, "No matter how bad the situation is in the future, I, Gu Yu, will not surrender to Chiang Kai-shek!" Because the life values I pursued did not allow me to do so, I did not join the Communist Party just to eat. ”
