In the conference room, Lan Yundong was briefing everyone on the current situation of the Japanese drama and the Soviet Far East.

Lan Yundong: "The Japanese army attacked the Soviet Far East on August 31. The offensive was divided into three directions, the first was to the west, the first line in Manchuria. The Japanese army of 100,000 troops made good progress, attacking in two directions, one along the railroad to attack the Soviet Union, and the Japanese began to besiege Chita City yesterday afternoon. At present, the two sides are intensifying their gathering of forces, and the Soviet Union has mobilized its armed forces along the railway to Chita. The second route of attack on Outer Mongolia has advanced several hundred kilometers. At present, the border troops of Outer Mongolia have been completely defeated, and the Soviet army in Outer Mongolia has only one brigade, and it is already a fact that Outer Mongolia has fallen, and it is estimated that the Japanese army may occupy Kulen, that is, Ulaanbaatar, in ten days. ”

Mayor Feng said: "How is the situation in Heihe progressing? ”

Lan Yundong: "Heihe is the second direction of the Japanese attack. In the past six days, the Japanese army and the Soviet army repeatedly attacked and defended, and fought in and out several times, and the casualties on both sides were huge. At present, the Japanese army has successfully landed and has occupied part of the urban area. The USSR was at a disadvantage here, occupying only a few northern regions. The railway and the bridge over the Jieya River were still in the hands of the Soviet troops. The Soviets transported a large number of troops from Burley here. As of today, we estimate that the Soviet casualties were about 20,000, while the Japanese casualties were more than 30,000. This time, the two sides learned the lessons of the Battle of Nomenkan and concentrated about 300,000 people, of which the Japanese pressed 200,000. ”

Peng Zhen said: "Let's talk about the situation on the Eastern Front. ”

Lan Yundong: "The situation on the eastern front is inconsistent. First, the Japanese army had already occupied a section of the Soviet railway, and the troops had advanced 200 kilometers south along the railway, capturing all the small towns along the railway. The Japanese army, which entered the territory of the Soviet Union from Hutou, gradually occupied the railway, along which some troops were deployed, while the rest attacked south. ”

"The Japanese army at Suifenhe broke through the territory of the Soviet Union for more than 100 kilometers, and one has already surrounded the Soviet army opposite Dongning. Most of the Soviets had already been killed and wounded, the Japanese sent 10,000 men to besiege them, and the rest were already closing in on the twin cities. ”

"In the Hunchun direction, the Japanese army has entered the Soviet Union, and the pursuit of the retreating Soviet troops has entered a long distance. In addition, the Japanese army entered the Soviet Union from a mountain pass near Dingzi Mountain in the East Quadrang. This force has already copied the rear route of the Soviet army and cut off more than 20,000 Soviet troops. The rest of the Soviet troops escaped with the support of naval guns from warships at sea. ”

"At present, the Soviet troops on the Eastern Front are massing at Shuangchengzi and Vladivostok, and it seems that they are preparing for a decisive battle with the Japanese army here. We estimate that in a few days, the Japanese army will encircle Shuangchengzi, and the Japanese army coming from the south will cut off the connection between Vladivostok and Shuangchengzi. ”

Peng Zhen said: "At present, the Soviet side requires us to send troops to attack and harass the rear of Japan. Some people suggested that troops should be sent to fight Japan immediately, save the Soviet Union, and contribute to the anti-fascist cause in the whole world. ”

Mayor Feng said: "At present, the Japanese army still retains 300,000 troops in various parts of the northeast, and is also stepping up military mobilization, and soldiers in the townships have joined the troops, and the troops are rapidly expanding. As far as we know, a large number of Japanese in Liaodong, Liaonan and other places joined the army. At the moment we do it, it doesn't seem appropriate. ”

Xiaolu said: "The Northeast will affect the overall situation, and you must report to the central government and get orders." In addition, judging from the current situation of the Japanese fighting in the Soviet theater, our troops need to be better prepared. ”

Xiaolu can't say that he saved the Soviet Union, that is not his wish, and he can't say that he will not save the Soviet Union, that would cause unnecessary contradictions. All he could say was technical. He was reluctant to launch a large-scale campaign in the Northeast at once, because that would mess things up. The Northeast could not be liberated, its own troops were finished, and the Soviet Union stood still.

Peng Zhen said: "It still needs a lot of materials to prepare. ”

Xiaolu said: "How is the contact with Outer Mongolia?" ”

Lan Yundong: "Outer Mongolia's attitude is very negative. The day before yesterday, they were reluctant to contact us, presumably because Soviet advisers would not allow it. Yesterday, they were willing to contact us, but according to the intelligence department of the Mongolian column, a large number of high-ranking Outer Mongolian officials have fled from Outer Mongolia, and most of them have fled to Central Asia, and some have gone to Siberia. At the moment, Ulaanbaatar is chaotic, and although it is not yet anarchy, the Japanese army will easily occupy Ulaanbaatar. ”

Xiaolu: "The Japanese army in Mongolia is nothing more than a few moves, first, to occupy Ulaanbaatar and consolidate its rule. Second, the northward movement echoed the Japanese forces in the Soviet Union. Third, go south and join forces with the Suiyuan army. I suspect that Article 3 may not be able to do so, because they don't have enough military strength and they don't have enough transportation capacity. ”

Lan Yundong: "According to the plan, we can send two columns into Outer Mongolia, and then ask Jining's troops to drive into Outer Mongolia." In this way, we can fight a battle with the Japanese army in Outer Mongolia. At present, the number of Japanese troops in Outer Mongolia is about 50,000. It is estimated that there will be no military strength into Outer Mongolia in the near future, because the Japanese army is insufficient. ”

Xiaolu said: "What is the latest estimate of the casualties of the Japanese army and the Soviet army?" ”

Lan Yundong: "According to the information sent back by several battlefield special combat teams, we estimate that at present, the two sides are fighting fiercely, and the Japanese army has suffered 100,000 casualties, while the Soviet army should have suffered 50,000 to 70,000 casualties. The Japanese numbers are more accurate, because we also intercepted some of their telegrams. ”

Xiaolu said: "Let's discuss the order to send an advance force into Outer Mongolia. ”

September 6, 1941. Yan'an.

Mao Gong drafted a telegram, convened a meeting of several Standing Committee members, and said: "According to the plan discussed in Yan'an last time, the Northeast is ready to send an advance force to secretly enter Outer Mongolia in advance. The Rehe Column went all the way, and Lin Meng went all the way, and Lin Meng was in charge. In addition, it was suggested that Guan Xiangying should also go to Outer Mongolia, and all the troops entering Outer Mongolia from the northeast should obey Guan's leadership. I think we can approve this plan. ”

Mr. Zhu said: "Guan Xiangying's base area has been stabilized, the troops have been equipped with war horses, and the horseback training is almost complete. He also received a telegram suggesting entry into Outer Mongolia. ”

Ren Gongdao: "It is recommended not to send too many troops, otherwise logistics and supply will be a big problem, and it is easy to have conflicts with the local Mongolian people." Sending more than 10,000 people, although not as many as the Japanese, but well-equipped, there is a chance of victory in a sports war. ”

As a result of the discussion, Guan Xiangying, Lin Meng, Du Xigang, and Ulanfu entered Outer Mongolia, and a temporary committee was formed by the above four people to deal with the affairs of Outer Mongolia.

Mao Gongdao: "The Northeast Bureau also called, the Northeast needs a large number of people, I heard that Henan has been dry since the wheat harvest, and the red land is thousands of miles, and it is suggested that we mobilize the people to flee to the Northeast Liberated Area." ”

Mr. Zhu said: "Our base area has accumulated some experience when transporting the victims of the Yellow Flood Area into the Liaorechasui base area. Because of the large number of potatoes and sweet potatoes planted in the base area, there is no big problem. The problem is that you need to contact the local government in Henan. ”

Ren Gongdao: "We can greet the relevant Henan officials and are willing to recruit the victims." Their baggage, we want. In addition, we can greet the reporters of the relevant newspapers and ask them to publicize them openly and secretly. ”

Mao Gongdao: "Henan is going to suffer. We need to think about people's livelihoods. Historically, there have been too many cannibalism among the people of Henan. We've got to do something. We will hold a special conference to study this, and the central government will take charge of it. Thirdly, let's discuss the movement of the North China troops to the north. ”

Mr. Zhu said: "There are going to be great changes in the Northeast, and the Japanese troops in North China are moving northward, and we must also move north as soon as possible." ”

Mao Gongdao: "As long as we have the Northeast, we have the capital." This bureau must be carefully laid out. ”
