The third part of the Bloody War of Resistance, Chapter 9, the second section, the battle after the war

"I said Sword Soul, can't you stop it, I don't have time to worry about these things now. "Zhuang Jihua looked at the stubborn Xuanxia father and complained helplessly.

After the establishment of the Henan Disaster Relief Committee, he has been staying in Zhengzhou and directing the whole province to carry out disaster relief. Disaster relief materials continue to be transported from all over the country, fortunately, the traffic in Henan is not bad, although the Longhai Road and the Pinghan Line have been damaged due to the war and have not been restored, but the road traffic situation in Henan is very good.

Henan's highway traffic is the best in the country, more than Sichuan and Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou, the main reason is the war, before the Lugou Bridge Incident, Song Zheyuan ruled North China, governed Hebei Chahar, the central army could not be stationed, in order to quickly reinforce Pingjin after the outbreak of the war, Chiang Kai-shek ordered the construction of tens of thousands of kilometers of highways in Henan; After the fall of Henan, the Japanese army in Henan did not have many troops, in order to cope with the emergency, the Japanese rebuilt the highway network on the original basis, which directly led to the fact that Henan almost realized the highway village to village.

In order to send the disaster relief materials to the disaster area as soon as possible, Zhuang Jihua ordered the suspension of the troops' vehicles, and all the troops rushed to the new defense area on foot, and the cars were all used to transport food.

In a short period of more than 10 days, the Henan National Salvation Committee organized more than 70 disaster relief detachments to go to various parts of the province, and their task was to supervise the distribution of disaster relief materials and at the same time mobilize the masses to produce and save themselves.

The situation in Henan was reported to the rear area through the press, and members of the Henan Committee of the Nationalist Government's Political Participation Committee jointly launched a motion demanding that the Nationalist Government intensify its efforts in disaster relief and demand that Henan's taxes be reduced or reduced.

After the proposal of the Henan political counselor, the article of the American journalist Bai Xiude in the Times was also published, but Bai Xiude's report this time was not a criticism but a praise.

Although it was spring, there was still not a single rain, the fields were parched, some of the rivers had been cut off, the bark had been peeled, only the bare trunks remained, and the dead bodies could be seen on the road at any time.

In order to resist this disaster that has not been encountered in a century, the entire Henan region, no, the entire Jiangbei Theater has been urgently mobilized, and the army has taken out military rations, from General Zhuang Jihua, the commander of the theater, to ordinary soldiers, only 250 grams of food per day, but what bothers General Zhuang is still food.

Yes, it is grain, before the Japanese retreated, they scavenged all the grain in Henan, and there was not a single grain of grain in the entire central and eastern parts of Henan, and millions of people were on the verge of life and death.

The Nationalist Government urgently mobilized tens of thousands of tons of grain and urgently transported it to Henan, but these grains were only a drop in the bucket, but it is fair to say that the Nationalist Government had done its best, and the Nationalist Government had not had much grain in its grain depots due to the perennial war, and not long ago, the Nationalist Government had provided tens of thousands of tons of grain to the Wuhan area that had just been recovered.

………”

After the article was published in the Times, it also caused a huge shock in the United States, first of all, the action of overseas Chinese in the United States, Chinatown was full of donation boxes, which soon raised a million dollars and bought a large amount of food to send to China; The U.S. government announced $5 million in relief supplies to the victims of the disaster in Henan.

The "Central Daily" reprinted the full text of Bai Xiude's article, and at the same time distributed a commentator's article "We Can't Let the Frontline Soldiers Fight the War with Hungry Stomachs", and then the Chongqing news media rushed up and urgently appealed, and the people of all walks of life in the rear took action to support the front line and the disaster-stricken areas in Henan. The citizens of Chongqing donated money and materials en masse, and soon this trend swept through the three southwestern provinces, spreading to Liangguang and Hunan, Jiangxi, and Hu Zongnan donated 100,000 stone of military rations on behalf of the northwest garrison.

Chiang Kai-shek ordered officials at all levels of the Nationalist Government to donate 10% of their salaries to buy 2 million stone of grain from Sichuan, Hunan, and Guangdong, and send it to Henan quickly.

Before the recovery of Henan, the Henan Provincial Government shrank in more than 10 counties in western Henan, with a narrow geographical area, with a theater headquarters on it and a joint defense of 13 counties in western Henan below, and most of the departments of the provincial government overlapped with the departments of the First Theater Command, and Wei Lihuang was too lazy to revise them. However, as soon as the south of the Yellow River is restored, this model cannot be sustained, and all departments of the Henan provincial government immediately become fragrant buns and become a shortage of fat for all parties.

The former director of the Henan Provincial Party Department was the director of the Political Department of the First War Zone and a close confidant of Wei Lihuang, but Wei Lihuang knew very well that once he left, it would be impossible for this party director to be kept, so he told Zhuang Jihua before leaving that as long as the director of the Henan Provincial Party Department had a candidate, this director would follow him to Zhongtiao Mountain and serve as the director of the Political Department of the former enemy command in the Second War Zone.

The provincial party director was preemptively appointed by Zhuang Jihua to his cronies Luo Lintao, and the competition in Chongqing turned to the secretary general of the provincial government and the county mayors below, and the political forces in Chongqing thought that Zhuang Jihua would strike again, but they didn't expect Zhuang Jihua to jump ashore and didn't mention any candidates at all, on the contrary, it was the prince Jiang Jingguo and Chen Lifu who were fiercely contested.

In Chongqing for five years, Chiang Ching-kuo's wings began to harden, and he trained a large number of cadres from the Southwest Development Team and the Three Youth Leagues, but he was very clever not to directly intervene in Sichuan, but gradually sent these cadres to Guizhou, Yunnan, Shaanxi, and Guangdong to serve as low-level magistrates.

In these five years, Chiang Ching-kuo went from being a spectator to a participant in the Chongqing model, and has now become a staunch supporter of it. Chiang Ching-kuo believed that the Chongqing model must be implemented throughout the country in order to unite China and achieve the goal of building a country with one party and one leader.

For Chen Lifu, the party department has always been his territory, but now this territory is not so safe, the original political science department meddled in the party department, and was fiercely counterattacked by him, but now Zhuang Jihua, Chen Cheng, and Jiang Jingguo have intervened in the party department, which makes him a little powerless.

Needless to say, Zhuang Jihua and Chen Cheng are both commanders of the theater of operations, they have military power in their hands, and they are not allowed to speak at all in the theater, and Chen Cheng is still his political ally. But Chiang Ching-kuo is different, in terms of qualifications, Chiang Ching-kuo is still a newcomer, for the sake of Chiang Kai-shek's face, Chen Lifu sometimes gives him three points, but the director of the Wuhan Party Department was robbed, but Chen Lifu was in his throat and angry.

Wuhan is not a small county, the director of the party department gave it, Wuhan was restored, even US President Roosevelt sent a congratulatory message, Zhengzhou was not so repercussive, but the rear celebrated. After losing in Wuhan, Chen Lifu didn't want to lose again in Henan, so he fought with Chiang Ching-kuo in Chongqing.

But what he never expected was that Chiang Ching-kuo bypassed the Central Party Department and directly submitted the list to Zhuang Jihua, and Zhuang Jihua asked Luo Lintao to appoint all the county party directors of more than 40 newly recovered counties according to the list, of course, Zhuang Jihua is not a fuel-efficient lamp, more than a dozen of them use the third party members entrusted by Chen Mingshu, these people are the backbone of the new development of the third party, and Deng Yanda cadre school cultivated, but they are mainly put here to let them accumulate experience.

What made Chen Lifu even more angry was that Zhuang Jihua wiped out the local power by announcing the military management of Henan, and all the county magistrates were replaced by military officers, and the entire CC system almost did not benefit in Henan.

In this way, Zhuang Jihua took the opportunity to squeeze out the CC system, started disaster relief, and promoted the Chongqing model in the province. But at this time, the Jiangbei Theater Liaison Office of the Eighth Route Army Office was established, and Xuan Xia's father served as the director of the liaison office, and the first thing he did when he took office was to deal with the conflict in eastern Henan.

Since the conflict in eastern Henan, Zhou EN came to protest to the Kuomintang in Chongqing, but Chiang Kai-shek did not pay attention to it at all, and did not even see Zhou EN come, but sent He Zhenhan and Zhou EN to make a false grievance, so that Zhou EN came a little helpless, in the mood of the great victory, the repercussions caused by the conflict in eastern Henan in the rear were not large, and the entire rear was immersed in the joy of victory, seeing this situation, Zhou EN decided to hand over the conflict in eastern Henan to the Jiangbei theater to deal with, and let Xuanxia's father negotiate directly with Zhuang Jihua, and Chiang Kai-shek also accepted this suggestion, Of course, Chiang Kai-shek was more confident.

After Xuanxia's father arrived in Henan, he found Zhuang Jihua and put forward three suggestions for dealing with Yudong: 1. Punish the murderer; 2. Return the occupied base areas; 3. The Hebei-Shandong-Henan Border Region was also affected by the disaster, and 100,000 stone of grain was provided to the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Border Region.

Zhuang Jihua just glanced at this condition and handed it over to the palace embroidery painting for archiving, and he still devoted himself to disaster relief. Xuanxia's father came three times in a row, but he didn't see Zhuang Jihua, it was easy to see, and after only talking for five minutes, Zhuang Jihua got up and said goodbye, making him angry.

"This is not a trivial matter, it is a major matter related to the cooperation between the two parties to resist Japan." Xuanxia's father protested expressionlessly, and the guards around him glared at Zhuang Jihua angrily.

"Now there are millions of victims in Henan who are waiting for food, sword souls, and when the disaster is alleviated, let's talk about it, okay?" Zhuang Jihua signed his name on the document as he spoke, and then said to Gong Xiuhua: "You supervise this matter, let them send the grain tomorrow." ”

"The people of Henan were affected by the disaster, and the officers and men of our Eighth Route Army felt the same way, and the head of the Hebei-Shandong-Henan border region was organizing forces to relieve the disaster."

"Hehe, Sword Soul, don't brag, that kid Chen G is here for food disaster relief." Zhuang Jihua couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and took out a note from the document next to him as he spoke: "No, take a look, this is the telegram he gave me." ”

Xuanxia's father took the telegram suspiciously, and the tone of the telegram was indeed Chen G's style, not polite at all: "Zhuang Wenge, you *** still have a meal, Lao Tzu is dying of hunger, hurry up and send 100,000 kilograms of grain to Lao Tzu." Also, the little devil seems to have a little meaning to Lao Tzu, send 500,000 rounds of ammunition to Lao Tzu, 10,000 shells, act quickly, don't let Lao Tzu wait for a long time. ”
