Xue Rui brought the situation of refugees from Henan this time.
All senior cadres in Shenyang participated in the refugee conference. First of all, Xue Rui reported the situation.
Xue Rui said: "I would like to inform the leaders of the situation in the following two aspects, the first is the situation of refugees, and the second is the situation of our work. ”
"The refugees in Henan are very serious. Since last autumn, not a single drop of rain has fallen in northern Henan. Last summer, there was little rain, so the soil in Henan was completely dry. Henan is bound to be a situation of no harvest. Because the Japanese army was approaching, the Guofu army was very nervous in Henan. Because they collect military rations, called soup grains, people say: Henan four famines, water and drought locust soup. water, which is the water of the Yellow Floodplain; The drought is the great drought of the moment; Locusts are locusts. Last year, there was a drought, and there were many locust eggs on the barren beach, but this year, the number of locusts is large, and the leaves and grass in many places have been eaten up; Finally, the soup is Towneberg. Town's collection of grain killed people. ”
"Chairman Li Peiji of the Henan Provincial Government went out to report the disaster, saying that Henan was 'thousands of miles of red land, full of mourning,' 'waiting to be fed,' and so on, Chairman Jiang scolded him for lying and making a false report, and strictly ordered that Henan's grain requisition could not be exempted."
It is said that Tang Enbo also reported the disaster, and after being scolded by Lao Jiang, Tang Enbo stopped talking and continued to collect grain. Tang Enbo's Ministry of the National Government, party affairs, government affairs, military affairs, and people's livelihood are all concentrated in the hands of Tang Enbo, and the Henan Provincial Government has no real name. Tang Enbo is known as the king of the Central Plains. ”
At the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, Tang was the commander of the 20th Army Corps, and participated in battles including the Battle of Nankou, the Battle of Lunan, and the Battle of Taierzhuang. Later, Tang concurrently served as the commander-in-chief of the First Corps of the Ninth Theater and the commander-in-chief of the 31st Group Army. After 1940, Tang Enbo concurrently served as the chief executive of the four war zones of Henan, Anhui, and Sulu provinces. In 1942, Tang concurrently served as the deputy commander of the First Theater of Operations, and stationed troops in Henan and other places with 300,000 or 400,000 troops. After the catastrophe in southern Henan, the Tang Department still expanded the army in a major way, and the quality of the troops was uneven. In order to maintain military spending, the soup department levied major events in the hard-hit areas, and Henan Province levied grain, which was called 'soup grain'. ”
"The people had no food in their hands, so they had to flee the famine."
"The second is our job."
"Since our party noticed the disaster in Henan last year, it has begun to lay out. Except for a group of disaster victims who went to Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningbo to make a living, we mainly arranged for the victims to go to the northeast. Our actions are as follows: First, our Taihang Mountains have opened up a passage from the Taihang Mountains to Suiyuan and all the way to the southwest of Liaoning. Second, we have prepared a large amount of food. We have collected all the surplus grain in the entire northeastern base area. Moreover, we transported grain along this passage to the Taihang Mountains, not only to fund the Eighth Route Army, but also to guide the victims to the northeast. Our aim is to guide the victims to several areas such as Daheunganry, Heungkaihu, Samgang, and North Korea. These areas are currently a lot of wasteland where people can be housed. ”
"The resettlement of the victims is the same as our policy of resettlement of North Korean refugees. Practice has proved that this is very attractive to Henan refugees. ”
"In the spring, the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi and northern Henan went around publicizing and telling the people that a large number of areas in the northeast had been recovered, there was a lot of wasteland, recruiting people to reclaim and settle down, and announcing our land policy."
"In the spring, only tens of thousands of people went to the northeast through this channel, and we arranged for them to go to the Great Khing'an Mountains. There are some intellectuals and prestigious people among the victims, and we ask them to return to Henan. At present, more than one million victims of the disaster have arrived in the Great Khing'an Mountains, and we are moving the rest of the people to Sanjiang. Currently, there are about hundreds of thousands of people on the road. Our trains transport food and victims to the north, and troop munitions to the south. Busy. ”
"Several chiefs of the base area estimate that the Samgang area will soon be saturated, and it will be necessary to arrange for the victims to go to the Heungkaihu area and northern Korea in a timely manner. They are very concerned about the development of our war situation. Opening up access to these two places is fundamental to the resettlement of the victims. If we can open it, we will be able to resettle two million people. ”
"Recently, dozens of people from Henan have followed us, and they expect to be in Shenyang by the time we have a meeting. They went to the Andong area to see the resettlement conditions. I'm done talking. ”
Xiaolu said: "If we can really accommodate four million people, then our strength will be great." The problem at hand is food shortage. ”
Yang Jingyu: "If the arrangement is completed before the end of July, the victims will still be able to plant autumn vegetables, have some harvest, and exchange for some rations." I can also build a house. Otherwise, as soon as the cold winter arrives, it will be troublesome. ”
Master Lin: "The 4 million disaster victims need 1.5 million tons of grain a year, and the pressure is very high. There is only one solution, and that is to defeat the Japanese as soon as possible. ”
Everyone felt the tremendous pressure and discussed all night, and the conclusion was to annihilate the Japanese army as soon as possible and snatch food from the mouths of the Japanese.
Towards the end of the meeting, Xiao Lu said: "I announce a good news, the Central Committee has decided to appoint Liu Yalou as the commander of the Air Force. Division Commander Lin knew that Liu Yalou was originally a senior cadre of the Red Army, and later studied in the Soviet Union, and his combat experience and knowledge were very powerful. Now, he has gone to Yichun to take office. From now on, the Air Force is an independent branch of the armed forces. It is no longer part of the Northeast Democratic Alliance. We must vigorously cooperate and help. We can expect a big development in the Air Force in the next year or two. ”
After hearing this, everyone felt that this was good news, because in this battle, the air force bombing greatly wiped out the Japanese army, and the air force reconnaissance gave the command command a timely grasp of the situation. The Air Force is too important.
After the meeting, Xiaolu went to visit the victims in Henan.
The victim at the head of the disaster was a literate squire, not very old, very shrewd, and his clothes were in tatters.
Xiaolu said: "Fellow with your surname? ”
The man said, "My surname is Liu." The chief is called me Village Chief Liu. ”
Xiaolu said: "Where are you from?" ”
Village Chief Liu: "A native of Huaxian County, Henan. The great drought is miserable. The water and drought locust soup has been encountered by all of us in Henan. ”
Xiaolu said: "Can you eat enough now?" ”
Village Chief Liu: "Thank you to the Eighth Road, along the way, one meal of gruel, two cakes, and a piece of pickle a day." It's not like Tang Enbo's grandson, but it's bad. Natural disasters can be serious, and food is also levied, driving us to a dead end, only to escape the famine. ”
Xiaolu said: "Are there any people who died of hunger in the disaster area?" ”
Village Chief Liu: "Yes." Lots of it. We Henan people are not afraid. We Henan people can be humorous. The two of them are going to die, Lao Zhang said: Let's live one day longer than Lao Li, it's worth it. "Keduo, means quite a lot.
Xiaolu said: "You look around. Now, the situation in our northeast is good. Most places were liberated. The Northeast is vast and sparsely populated, and we have found a few good places that can accommodate millions of fellow villagers. ”
Village Chief Liu: "Thank you, our old Liu saw these good places before the villagers, it's worth it." ”
Xiaolu said: "We have a land policy in the Northeast Liberated Area, as well as a cash-for-work policy, you Lao Liu can get rations, clothes, and work more to earn money, and there will be a piece of land here to live a good life here." ”
Village Chief Liu: "It's worth it." ”
