Chapter 538: Negotiations, Preparing for a Great War

June 16, 1942. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info afternoon, Anshan.

Major General Qin Yanzaburo's car arrived at the Anshan headquarters.

Qin Yan Saburo set off from Shenyang in the morning, and the road conditions along the way were very bad, with a pit in the east and a ditch in the west. This was a means for the Northeast Coalition to stop the Japanese reinforcements. However, along the way, the Northeast Democratic Alliance Army allowed all the troops to go, and also helped his car pass the roadblock, otherwise, he would not have been able to arrive the day after tomorrow.

Originally, the Japanese army wanted to carry out it secretly, but after thinking about it, Xiao Lu decided to do it publicly, because after the secret was carried out, it was not clear that he could walk away, and Lao Yang might encounter trouble in the future political struggle. Be above board.

The two sides sat down, and Xiaolu said: "Major General Qin Yan, let me introduce, this is the commander of the First Army of the Northeast Coalition Army, General Yang Jingyu, and this is the commander of our Panshan Column, General Cai Jimin. I myself am Lu Xiaoming, and I am an officer of the Northeast Coalition Army in charge of negotiations. I take full responsibility for the negotiations. The purpose of our negotiations was to get the Japanese army to surrender as soon as possible to prevent the war from spreading. You should know me. ”

Qin Yan Saburo stood up and said, "Several of them are very famous generals, although we haven't seen them, but we have admired the great names for a long time. It's an honor to meet now, and please take care of it. ”

Cai Jimin slapped the table and said, "Of course, take care of it." Some of the bullets and shells of my troops are taken care of by you. I can't kill you. "This little man still has such a hot temper.

Qin Yan Saburo: "You are laughing." I came this time to turn hostility into war and fight for a truce between the two families. "Both sides have stated the purpose of the negotiations.

Cai Jimin slapped the table again and said, "Truce!" We gathered hundreds of thousands of people, truce? You tease me to play that! Lao Tzu will not destroy you this time, and he will not be a teacher. If I want to suspend the army, I won't listen to Chairman Mao's orders. Surrender quickly, everyone will have to save their energy. This is the purpose of Lao Tzu's participation in the negotiations. Otherwise, if you fall into the hands of Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will not accept surrender! I'll kill you cleanly! ”

Qin Yan Saburo: "I came here with great sincerity. I still remember the agreement between the east and the west to divide Manchuria. ”

Xiaolu said: "You occupy Outer Mongolia, and all peace-loving people will not tolerate your behavior." ”

Only the two of them said these two sentences were substance, and what Cai Jimin said was just to create an atmosphere. The two of them passed a round in these two sentences: Qin Yan Saburo blamed his troops for not following the agreement. And Xiaolu said, you occupy Outer Mongolia first, you do the first year of junior high school, and I will only do the fifteenth.

Yang Jingyu said: "What conditions do you have, let's talk about it." Is it relying on negotiations to stall for time? ”

Cai Jimin said: "If you want to delay time, you are wrong." Listen, the guns outside haven't stopped for a moment! ”

June 17, 1942. Morning, Anshan.

Koji put forward three demands during the negotiations: first, the withdrawal of Japanese troops from the northeast. Second, to guarantee China's rights and interests in Korea, and thirdly, to guarantee China's interests in the Soviet Far East.

These three were actually to withdraw the Japanese from the Northeast, partly from Korea, and partly from the Soviet Far East. This is a very enterprising condition.

In the eyes of the Japanese, this is a very outrageous condition. Why do they have such outrageous conditions?

Qin Yanzaburo said that these three are impossible, and I hope that Xiaolu will mention a few realistic. In addition, he also put forward three points: First, he demanded that the Northeast Democratic Alliance withdraw from eastern Manchuria. Second, they demanded the return of the pioneers. Thirdly, it demanded the return of the occupied railways and the guarantee of the rights and interests of the Japanese Far Eastern Railway.

The demands of the Kwantung Army were somewhat excessive, and they demanded that the spheres of influence of both sides not only be restored to the pre-war period, but also to give up some of the pre-war territory.

Xiaolu said, these three of you are far from satisfying our interests, you Japanese invaded first, if you do not retreat and do not meet our conditions, we will fight to the end. That's all for today, we hope that the Japanese Kwantung Army understands its position and understands the reality. We are willing to continue negotiations tomorrow and hope that the Japanese army will have a clearer understanding of the situation.

The two sides are so far apart that there is little chance of negotiation. However, neither side is willing to stop the negotiations.

On the battlefield, today, fierce fighting continued on the outskirts of Anshan City, and the Japanese army relied on factories to counterattack very effectively. The attacking troops, on the other hand, were a little unable to let go and did not dare to use heavy weapons, because they attached too much importance to Angang's equipment.

The Japanese troops from Shenyang had already reached the front line of Liaoyang, and the blocking troops were engaged in fire, and on the first day, the two sides attacked tentatively, and the scale of the operation was not large. However, Yang Jingyu has already felt a huge pressure.

To the north, Wu Fugui's army had reached the outskirts of Changchun. In order to create momentum, under the guidance of the underground party, the vanguard of Lao Wu had not yet gained a firm foothold, so they fired four shots with horse-drawn rocket artillery, one shot hit the puppet palace, one shot entered the Japanese military camp in Xidaying, and two shots hit the Japanese army position on the bank of the Yitong River. Although there were no deaths, it gave a great shock to the Japanese army and the puppet Manchu government.

This was a huge variable, and some of the Japanese troops who left Xinjing to reinforce Anshan returned halfway to strengthen the defense of Xinjing.

In the Jilin direction, the troops of Ma Zhongwu and Li Feng launched an attack on the city of Jilin. Although it was a feint attack according to the plan, the intensity was not small at all, and the construction site of the Fengman Hydropower Station was breached again.

Because of several riots and strikes, the puppet Manchurians had to improve the treatment of workers, increase investment, and purchase more advanced construction equipment. On the contrary, the progress of the hydropower station has accelerated, the dam has been filled, and the first unit is already being installed.

Ma Zhongwu personally sat in charge of the plump and asked all engineering and technical personnel to continue the construction, and the workers to continue the construction. In addition, the troops continued to attack the city of Jilin.

In addition, according to the order, Lu Zhengcao's large army also crossed the Songhua River, and Zhao Shangzhi's troops left and right, killing to Changchun, everywhere they went, invincible, in one morning, had reached Dehui and Nong'an County. The pillboxes on the railway were all broken, the railway was opened, and the train transported the baggage and the large army to the north of Dehui City.

In the Shenyang direction, Li Sen's troops reappeared and carried out artillery shelling of the fortifications on the outskirts of Shenyang. The large army gradually surrounded Shenyang.

In addition, Wan Quance's troops in the west marched overnight, bypassing the city of Shenyang and inserting themselves in the direction of Anshan, with the aim of copying the rear route of the Japanese reinforcements.

The development of the battlefield, both sides are clear, the Japanese army has gathered 300,000 troops on the road to Shenyang, Jilin, Changchun, Anshan, and Shenyang Anshan, and the entire northeast, except for a few border guards, Dalian, Sun Wu's troops, almost all the Japanese troops have been dispatched.

The Eighth Route in the northeast has also gathered more than 200,000 troops on this large battlefield, and other troops are still coming over.

Both sides know that the focus of this battle is Anshan. After this battle, there will be no more major battles in the Northeast.

The situation of the battle was constantly reported to Yan'an, and briefings were also transmitted to the government and even to Stilwell at regular intervals. Guidance telegrams from Yan'an kept coming.

For a time, it became the heart of the Asian theater.
