Chapter 21 Practice is the Only Criterion for Testing Truth II

In fact, with Liu Yimin's sensitive feeling, he already knew that someone was quietly approaching and listening to him, but he joined the Red Army for too short a time, and many people were not familiar with it. In addition, later generations basically did not retain much picture information about the part of the Red Army that opposed [***], so he couldn't tell who the people who came were.

Considering that it is a time of brutal war, bullets do not have long eyes, although he is a martial artist and has received a super education that is of course in this era, no one can guarantee that he will be alive in the next battle. Therefore, Liu Yimin wanted to communicate more with [***]. After all, although this person is eloquent and has great achievements, he is also very strong in his limited surname, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he also took many detours and made mistakes. If I can help him clarify his thinking and make changes, it will be a blessing for the country and the nation. It's not in vain to cross over once.

Besides, even if you don't say these things yourself, with the wisdom of [***] people, you will also correct these mistakes according to historical habits. However, the detour will be longer, and the sacrifice will be greater. As for whether saying these words will bring any disadvantages to himself and [***], Liu Yimin has not thought about it, but when he thinks of the figures of the Red Army soldiers falling one by one, Liu Yimin can't control himself, after all, he is a young angry young man who is easy to be impulsive. Besides, judging from the situation after the Battle of Xiangjiang, it is estimated that people's minds will not have much bad impact on [***], after all, Li De and others are not fools who are completely ignorant of current affairs.

Hearing someone making insulting remarks and ridiculing him, Liu Yimin turned around and saw six people standing there looking at him.

Liu Yimin saw Vice Chairman Zhou and Commander-in-Chief Zhu at a glance, another foreigner with a high nose must be Li De, he was followed by the translator Wu Xiuquan, and the other one who wore glasses and was polite should be Bogu, and the person who spoke didn't know who it was.

Seeing Zhou Enlai and Zhu De, whom he respected, Liu Yimin stepped forward and saluted: "Report to Vice Chairman Zhou, Commander-in-Chief Zhu, and Acting Commander of the Red 18th Regiment Liu Yimin reports that our regiment occupied the county town of Tongdao in the evening before, with no casualties and rich captures, and is now ordered to carry out a guard task in the county town of Tongdao to meet the central column and the first corps." Please instruct! ”

Without waiting for Zhou Enlai and Zhu De to speak, the person who spoke just now spoke again: "Liu Yimin? Acting head of the 18th regiment? A small acting head of the delegation dared to talk nonsense and criticize the central government's decision-making. I think you've lived enough. ”

"Who are you?" Liu Yimin asked.

Vice Chairman Zhou said: "Comrade Stone (this character name is fictitious, please do not sit in the opposite seat.) Author's words), let Comrade Liu Yimin speak, don't scare people with a big hat. You are Comrade Liu Yimin, our hero, come, shake hands. ”

Seeing Zhou Enlai and Liu Yimin shaking hands, Li De, who listened to the last part of Liu Yimin's speech through the translator, was reluctant. He suddenly took out his revolver, stepped forward and pointed at Liu Yimin's head and roared: "You are a coward, an undetermined element, and a disturber of the army's morale, I will shoot you!" ”

*, Zhang Wentian, Wang Jiaxiang, Zhou Enlai, and Zhu De exclaimed at the same time: "Stop", "Be careful".

Liu Yimin smiled slightly, several people didn't see his movements, Li De fell to the ground with a butt raised on all sides, and the pistol was also in Liu Yimin's hand.

Stone shouted, "Liu Yimin, how dare you do it to Comrade Waffle?" Come on, tie up Liu Yimin! ”

Seeing that the Red Army soldiers around him were motionless, Stone was about to step forward and do it himself.

Liu Yimin waved his hand at him: "You are Comrade Stone, when Li De took a gun to shoot me just now, why didn't you stop it?" Is this how you treated your Red Army cadres? ”

"You are deceiving the people and shaking the morale of the army, you should be shot!" Stone blushed and shouted thickly.

Liu Yimin looked at Stone, who was also a staunch revolutionary, but he was too deeply influenced by dogmatism, and he had to be enlightened and enlightened.

"Comrade Stone, tell me, what I just said is wrong, which point is a lie, which point is to shake the morale of the army. We people believe in Marxism, and one of the basic principles of Marxism is to respect objective facts. ”

"You say that you want * to come out and command the Red Army, this is a denial of the leadership of the Central Committee, this is a conspiracy."

"Really? Isn't it a fact that the Autumn Harvest Uprising was launched, Jinggangshan was launched, the Nanchang Uprising troops were victoriously rendezvous, the Red Army was created, and the Central Soviet Region was created? Isn't it a fact that he commanded the Central Red Army to break the enemy's three encirclements and suppressions and be invincible? The common people of the whole country know the Zhu Mao Red Army, and even Chiang Kai-shek thinks that [***] is the commander of the Red Army, and has never heard of you Stone and Li De as the commander-in-chief of the Red Army. If we do not let comrades with correct strategic thinking come out to lead the Red Army, will we still let Bogu and Li De, who led to the loss of the Soviet area and the crushing defeat of the Xiangjiang River, continue to lead the Red Army? ”

"Comrade Li De is a representative of the Comintern, and Comrade Bogu is the general head of the Provisional Central Committee designated by Comrade Wang Ming, and now he is the general secretary of the party, how can you say that."

"Comrade Stone, as I understand it, Li De was a military adviser sent by the Comintern, not a deputy. You should be clear that the meaning of the consultant is that when someone needs to consult him, the consultant can provide reference opinions, and the consultant cannot express his opinion without others asking. That is to say, the consultant is often referred to, and he asks when he takes care of it, and he doesn't care about it. In China and the Red Army, Li De only had the right to make suggestions, but not to make decisions. If Comrade Stalin could have known for sure what Li De had done and the losses he had inflicted on the Red Army, what awaited Li De would be a trial by a military tribunal and shooting. You studied in the USSR and should know this better than I do. ”

"As for Comrade Wang Ming, I joined the Red Army late and have not met him. But where was he when our Red Army was fighting to the death? Whatever you tell me for what reason and where he is, I will tell you that at the critical moment of the life and death of the Party and the Red Army, a leader who is not with the ranks, no matter how ornate the fig leaf he puts on himself, cannot hide his cowardly nature and the fear of death to flee. Such a leader is not needed by our Red Army soldiers. Besides, although I have just joined the party, I also know that the top leader of any political party must be elected. Not to mention that he has never been the general secretary of the party, and even if he does, he cannot appoint the person in charge of the party Central Committee by himself. We are [***], not feudal gangs. Wang Ming's behavior seriously trampled on the party's organizational principles and was a matter of contempt for the power of all [***] members. Comrade Stone, as an old party member and a senior party leader, why don't you stop him? You open your mouth Wang Ming and close your mouth Wang Ming, don't you know that you are aiding the abuse? Regarding Comrade Bogu, although he is a loyal [***] person, he is just a student baby who has drunk some foreign ink, you ask what else he can do without Wang Ming's remote command and Li De's blind command? Look at the blood of the Red Army soldiers on both sides of the Xiangjiang River, it is all fresh life. Comrade Stone, that's why you're still here to point fingers at me, and that's the result of protecting the lives of many martyrs. If you let Li De and Bogu continue to command like this, we will soon be completely annihilated, and there will be no one to protect you at that time, do you plan to commit suicide or surrender? Comrade Stone, you are sober and sober, you will not let our fighters die blindly, right? ”

Looking at Bogu and Stone's pale faces, Liu Yimin continued: "I know that you and Comrade Bogu both came back from Moscow and learned Marxism-Leninism. However, you have precisely violated the most basic principle of Marxism, that is, theory must be integrated with practice and subject to the test of practice. The most important reason why Lenin was able to lead the Russian revolution to success was that he integrated the principles of Marxism with the specific reality of Russia; if Lenin did not act according to the reality of Russia and copied Marx's statement that the proletarian revolution should first be carried out in the highly developed capitalist countries, where would there be a cannon shot of the October Revolution? Therefore, Marxism is a scientific theory of development, and it needs to be carried forward and innovated by generation after generation in light of the realities of our own country and region. To carry forward innovation is to emancipate the mind and seek truth from facts. By seeking truth from facts, we should test our revolutionary theory with revolutionary practice. If you don't know how to integrate Marxist principles with reality, you are a nerd who only understands book knowledge. This reason is very simple, for example, Comrade Stone, how is your marksmanship? It's not enough to just say good or bad, you have to be shot a few times, and it will be clear after the shot. For example, if you want to know what an apple tastes like, you can taste it for yourself. Therefore, practice is the standard by which all truth is tested. You claim that your strategy and tactics are the most correct, and through the test of practice since the five anti-encirclement and suppression campaigns, your strategic thinking and tactical principles have been proved wrong by the blood of the Red Army soldiers. I think, as a true revolutionary, Comrade Bogu, Comrade Li De, and Comrade Stone would not even have the conscious surname to correct their mistakes, right? Do you have to be a sinner of the Red Army and nailed to the pillar of shame in history? ”

Seeing that several central leaders were pondering their words, Liu Yimin stepped forward and pulled Li De, patted the ash on his body, and then said: "Comrade Li De, your military theory is a theory in German textbooks, don't say that it is not good to command the poorly equipped Red Army, even if it is well-equipped [***]. If you don't want the Red Army soldiers to despise you and spurn you forever, and if you are still willing to help the Red Army achieve victory, it is recommended that you become an artillery commander or an artillery instructor at the Red Army school, and do something in earnest. Otherwise, even if we do not report your situation to Comrade Stalin, and let you escape the purge of the Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs and the trial of the military court, the unjust souls of those who died in battle on both sides of the Xiangjiang River will haunt you for the rest of your life. Do it yourself. ”

Wu Xiuquan looked at Liu Yimin in surprise, and Liu Yimin said, "Please translate my words truthfully." ”

After Wu Xiuquan translated, Li De opened his eyes with fear and exclaimed, "Het, het!"

Liu Yimin turned to Stone again and said: "There is an old Chinese saying that heroes are not judged by success or failure, and that is the words of peacetime scholars who study history and gain or lose. We are now in a bloody battle to the death, and heroes must be judged by success or failure. Whoever can lead the Red Army out of the predicament and achieve victory is a hero. We, the soldiers of the Red Army, need unity of thought, unity and strength at the highest decision-making level to lead us to successive victories. Comrade Stone, if you think about it, now that the Kuomintang newspapers have openly reported the news that they have stationed hundreds of thousands of troops in Xiangxi, we still have the unrealistic idea of going to Xiangxi to join forces with the Second and Sixth Army Corps. This common sense is understood even by a new soldier who has just joined the army, let alone a senior leader like you, who is full of strategy? ”

Stone's face was sweating: "What you said may have a point, I want to think about it seriously." ”

Liu Yimin thought that since he had taken the medicine, it was better to put it in place at one time. He said loudly to Stone: "Comrade Stone, the most important thing in studying Marxism-Leninism is to study the theoretical essence of integrating Marxist-Leninist theory with practice, not to learn violence. I don't know if you know, but on the way to find the Red Army, I heard from the common people that your classmate Xia Xi of Sun Yat-sen University in Moscow was a die-hard supporter of Wang Ming, who carried out a large-scale rebellion with the Red Army in the Honghu area, killing Red Army cadres and soldiers and revolutionary masses, killing only more than 3,000 of the 20,000 Red Army, and I heard that he killed three of his four guards. I'm thinking, Chiang Kai-shek killed [***], and these [***] who specialized in purging rebellion also killed [***]. The only difference is that Chiang Kai-shek is killed by aircraft artillery with open fire, and he may not be able to kill, you are killing [***] in the name of [***], one kill is accurate. When I heard that Xia Xi killed Duan Dechang, Duan Dechang said not to shoot him, so that he would waste bullets and let him cut with a knife. The common people in the Honghu area said that these people who carried out the rebellion were wolves in sheep's clothing who came back from the northern grasslands. ”

With a "bang", Stone sat down on the ground.

Liu Yimin knew that his words were worse than an 8-magnitude earthquake.

Li De felt as if the tendons in his body had been pulled out all of a sudden.

Stone even felt that his idol Wang Ming seemed to have been skinned, so ugly, and even so ugly himself.

Zhou Enlai blamed himself, such a simple truth, why didn't he think seriously in the past? Why did Wang Ming appoint Bo Gu as the head of the Central Committee, but he knew that he was a puppet set up by Wang Ming and did not actively oppose it? Looking back at what the Central Committee did after moving to the Soviet District, it seems that the disasters in the Soviet District were caused by the Central Committee's arrival, which is a crime! This Xia Xi has to be reviewed immediately, and he can't be allowed to do this anymore.

Zhu De was very unhappy in his heart, the Central Red Army was brought out by himself and Lao Mao, why did Bogu and Li De let themselves hand over power as soon as they came? In the past, I just thought that I was a party member, and I would do whatever the party told me to do, why didn't I think that the motives of these young children were pure or not, and they could represent the majority of party members. Think what a fucking bag!

Lao Mao sighed in his heart, and finally someone said something fair. It's amazing, it's really remarkable, an acting regiment commander who has just joined the Red Army can explain the truth of Marxism guiding the Chinese revolution so plainly and thoroughly, expose the essence of Wang Ming's group of students studying in the Soviet Union who are pulling the banner as tiger skins, and also see the problems of the core system of leadership in the period of peaceful construction after the victory. And when I said key things and did key things at a critical time, it was amazing, and I saved myself a lot of things! This person needs to be cultivated well.

Zhang Wentian was thinking, he pays attention to study and research, everyone says that he is a scholar, how to study and study, and he has not even thought clearly about such a major and ordinary truth that practice is the standard for testing truth, is he a member of the Politburo Standing Committee based on his ability level or by his seniority? Can you represent the interests of the Red Army and Party members? I have a guilty conscience. We must do something to contribute to the Party and the Red Army, we must act immediately, demand the convening of a meeting of the Politburo, and remove the command of Li De and Bogu, and we must not be sinners.

Wang Jiaxiang felt that this Liu Yimin and Lao Mao's thoughts were in the same vein, no, it seemed to be more thorough, what he said emancipated the mind, sought truth from facts, and was incisive, it really went to the essence, and he wanted to sort out his words, which in itself was a text to deal with the highest three. And that Xia Xi and Wang Ming, how can they be classmates with these bastards? If the Red Army soldiers knew what they were doing, my God, I can't imagine it.

Bogu thought, it's over, it's completely over. Although he also rebelled and killed a lot of people, he didn't expect Xia Xi to be so bold and sinful! When will we be able to atone for these sins?

Liu Yimin looked at the leaders who bowed their heads and pondered, and knew that they had said what they had to say, and now they needed to let these great men rest a little, after all, they had worked as hard as the Red Army soldiers since the Long March, and even harder than the soldiers. He raised his hand again and saluted: "Vice Chairman Zhou, Commander-in-Chief Zhu, leaders, we have arranged the camping places of the comrades of the Central Column and the First Army Corps, prepared meals, killed 12 fat pigs, prepared wine and cigarettes, boiled the bath water, made some new military uniforms, and invited the leaders and comrades to the residence to take a short rest, take a shower after eating, get a haircut, and change clothes." If there is any need, our cadres and fighters are always on call. ”

[***] said with a smile: "I said Liu Yimin, you little guy is quite sensible, you are so well prepared." ”

Vice Chairman Zhou also smiled and continued: "Comrade Zedong, you also know, Liu Yimin and the others have made great contributions this time, and they have seized 3 million silver dollars and 200 gold bars in the passage, which is the largest seizure since the founding of our Red Army. Comrade Liu Yimin, in a few moments, the Central Column will send someone to handle the handover procedures for the seized funds, and this time I really want to thank you, comrades. ”

Liu Yimin hurriedly said: "Report to Vice Chairman Zhou, these seizures are all people's fat and ointment looted by the enemy, which are used to arm the Red Army to fight for the people's liberation, and they are used to the fullest. If you want to say thank you, can it be understood that you want to criticize us for the fact that there is still a gap in the political and ideological work of the Red 18th Regiment, and the revolutionary consciousness of cadres and fighters needs to be improved! Speaking of this, Liu Yimin himself smiled. Several leaders also laughed, and the atmosphere was finally not as heavy as just now.

Mr. Zhu said with a smile: "Enlai, don't just say thank you, you should report to the whole army for such a heroic team." Liu Yimin, let's say, what difficulties do we need to solve? ”

Liu Yimin hurriedly said: "Report to the commander-in-chief, our regiment has sufficient personnel, and the new recruits recruited by the Red Army can be replenished after training; although the weapons are not enough at present, I believe that they can be replenished and complete in the next battle, but what is lacking now are political workers and staff officers, artillery, engineers, cavalry, communications, and logistics management cadres, and I hope that the leaders will consider transferring some cadres from the Red Army schools or cadre regiments." ”

Mr. Zhu said: "You don't have artillery and cavalry, what do you want artillery and cavalry cadres for?" ”

Liu Yimin replied: "Report to the commander-in-chief, there are many cannons in the Central Army, the Hunan Army, and the Gui Army, and there are also a lot of war horses, so they are waiting for us to get them." I believe that soon we will have artillery and cavalry. ”

Mr. Zhu said again: "Your 18th Regiment has won the battle, but this attack on the channel is a clever battle, and the combat effectiveness of the troops cannot be tested, after all, after the Xiangjiang Campaign, the 18th Regiment suffered heavy losses. ”

Liu Yimin snapped and stood upright: "Report to the commander-in-chief, all the officers and men of the Red Eighteenth Regiment assure you that our regiment is willing to serve as the vanguard or rear guard of the whole army, whether it is the Central Army, the Gui Army, the Hunan Army or the army in the future battlefield of resistance, God blocks and kills God, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha, and resolutely completes all combat tasks assigned by the Central Military Commission." Please rest assured, use me in a tough battle, and I will win! ”

"Good! Good! Good! A good Liu Yimin, a good Red Eighteenth Regiment, a good tough battle with me, with me will win. Heroic. [***] admired in his mouth, and looked at Liu Yimin with a smile in his eyes: "Do a good job, we are waiting for the news of the continuous victory of the Red Eighteenth Regiment." ”

Vice Chairman Zhou said: "Okay, the war is urgent, and the enemy is still biting behind us." After you hand over the funds, you will also hand over the materials you have raised to the central column, and after you have completed the training, you should pay close attention to the reorganization and training of the troops, and there may be a combat mission at any time. You don't have to take care of us, as long as you win the battle, we will be safe. The cadres who need it will then report to your regiment. ”

"Yes, resolutely carry out the order. Please take care, chiefs! Liu Yimin saluted and reluctantly left. * smiled and said, "Guys, let's go, we can go and solve the stomach problem." ”

The group, guided by the Red Army soldiers, walked to the designated accommodations.
