Chapter 742: Taiwan and Japan, Bold Layout
Mr. Zhu: "The situation in Taiwan is very good. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Since He Wei took charge of Taiwan's work in an all-round way, Taiwan's situation has taken on a completely new look. Taiwan's guerrilla force has grown to more than 20,000 today. This is number one. They opened up a large number of base areas in the mountains and countryside, and the pro-Japanese elements in the villages were punished, and they educated a large number of people, and the mass base was well improved. This is the second. They developed underground parties in the cities and towns, and many people from the puppet government joined the organization. ”
Mao Gong: "It's a lot better than before, it's effective, and it should be affirmed." ”
"Taiwan is different from other provinces, it has a long colonial history, and many people think that they are proud of being Japanese and look down on mainlanders. Anyone who is educated has a Japanese name and knows Japanese. They don't care much about corruption, they don't care much about the identity of the nation-state, they value their wealth, they are afraid of power. Therefore, we develop our strength, at a high cost, and we are given good weapons. On the contrary, the mountain people are more likely to fight for it, and as long as they help them have enough food and clothing, they are willing to work with us. At present, there is no large-scale armed struggle, and it is limited to the stage of cracking down on traitors and ideological education. It is not easy to achieve what we have today. ”
Mao Gong: "I've been a slave for a long time, and those who don't want to be slaves have been killed, and the rest don't resist." This is an objective fact. We have already sent hundreds of cadres to Taiwan, and it doesn't seem like enough. Then send some cadres from Fujian and Taiwan. ”
Xiaolu: "In the early days, the local mountain tribes resisted the Japanese army and were extremely murderous. The Japanese think the other way around. I feel that I can recruit into the army. Therefore, there are many people in Taiwan who joined the Japanese army and did a lot of bad things in the army. ”
Mao Gong: "Regarding the people's thinking, we can organize a group of talented people to write a large number of articles in a short period of time to tell the people in Taiwan the facts. ”
Ren Gong: "Ideological issues are the most difficult to handle, and they are also the best to handle. Taiwan has been colonized for too long, and the people's hearts have to work. We need to take on the work of educating the people. ”
Mao Gong: "Taiwan's policy needs to be formulated more comprehensively and meticulously. What is Taiwan's operational thinking? ”
Mr. Zhu: "The Northeast Bureau has a very good idea. During my time in the Northeast, we had a meeting with the monopoly. Very good. ”
Xiaolu: "We're talking about ideas, not plans. The general idea is this: Before and after the United States fought the Philippines, when the Japanese army moved troops to leave, we launched a battle in Taiwan to cooperate with the American army. It is not enough to rely only on local troops to attack Taiwan, and it is necessary to have troops from other places to participate in the war. At present, the Americans suffered too many losses in the battle of Kuah, and they were unwilling to confront the Japanese Army. There was some hesitation to enter the Philippines. Now that the US military has captured Midway, Guam, and is preparing to march into the Philippines, it will just take some time. Taiwan's actions should be stepped up. ”
Mr. Zhu said: "Taiwan is not easy to handle. The Japanese army stationed the 10th Front Army in Taiwan, 200,000 people. There are units of the army, navy, air force and other branches of the armed forces. In addition, there are 300,000 Japanese expatriates, and 100,000 can be armed. These are not small numbers. Foreign troops participate in the war, how can they come? What to eat when you come? There are many comes, but there are many difficulties. There are fewer comes, and the military is insufficient. These are all questions. ”
Xiao Lu: "We still need to put a lot of effort into formulating a specific battle plan, and in addition, we also need to coordinate with the United States, and we need American troop carriers to transport troops. In this way, we were prevented from making a rash advance, and Taiwan's 200,000 troops concentrated their forces on attacking us; Or, we started late, and Taiwan was occupied by the Americans. ”
Hu Fu, who had not spoken for a long time, said: "No matter what, we must turn Taiwan into a powerful base for us." If we want to grasp it in our hands after the war, we need to do more work now. Taiwan cannot be allowed to become the nest of Chiang's future years. The general direction will take some time to come. It takes a lot of work. ”
Mao Gong: "Taiwan's layout can continue, but the specific strategy still needs to be worked, and today is a beginning." Taiwan is discussing these today. Let's talk about Japan, which is also the general direction and the beginning. ”
Mr. Zhu: "When I was in Northeast China, I focused on analyzing and studying the military of Northeast China, Taiwan, and North Korea. Japan's problems, I didn't listen to them in depth. You might as well go into more detail this time. ”
Xiao Lu: "The situation in Japan, we are also thinking about it. Let's start with the post-war scenario, which can be roughly said to be a strategic goal. We envisage the division of Japan into two, half of which is the country under our control, which is now northern Japan, mainly most of Honshu, plus Hokkaido; The other half was the southern part of what is now Japan, which could be controlled by the United States, mainly a small part of Honshu, plus Shikoku and Kyushu. ”
None of the people in the room spoke. It can be seen that they are thinking fast.
Koji: "The division of Japan in two can effectively limit the future ambitions of the Japanese. Our work is certainly not confined to the northern half, but our forces are mainly distributed in the north. At present, in Japan, we have sent back nearly 2,000 people through various means. The 2,000 people have grown into a party of more than 100,000 people. They wrote a large number of books that had a great influence on the Japanese, especially Japanese women. Because they are all underground parties and are not armed. ”
Hu Fu: "Splitting into two countries means that we have to put in more effort and sacrifice. ”
Ren Gong: "We need more supplies and more equipment. ”
Mr. Zhu said: "If it is divided into two countries, can the Americans agree?" What do you think about Chongqing? What do the people think? For example, what about war reparations? ”
Xiaolu: "We've all quarreled about these questions. If everyone disagrees, then quarrel. For example, logistics, materials, and industries in the Northeast can provide support, but they cannot provide support for the domestic war of resistance. If both are supported, then both will be supported and not hated sufficiently, increasing the difficulty of the army's losses and victories. ”
Mr. Zhu: "We will analyze these problems, and we will quarrel." ”
Xiaolu: "For example, the attitude of the United States, I guess they will agree." They have a request for us because of the bad situation in Europe. Chongqing is the only one who looks forward to the United States, as long as it gives supplies and does not deprive the right of command, it can do anything. As for the opinions of the people at home, they should also be taken into account, and war reparations should be divided into two types: the state and the people. Civil war reparations are correct. We have to abide by the post-war arrangements. If Japan is broken, take human resources to compensate for old equipment. If Japan still has something valuable, such as the gold they collected, etc., they will also have to pay compensation. In short, their technical talents, skilled workers are what we need the most. With tens of thousands of such people, China's development can leap by 30 years. ”
Mr. Zhu: "One more thing. We do our work to win the rights and interests of the Ryukyus. This is the beginning. There is still a lot to do to occupy the Ryukyus. He said to Xiaolu: "You help the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army to train the marines, it is difficult to form combat effectiveness in a short period of time, and you still have to work hard." ”
Everyone was hesitant to attack Taiwan and the Japanese mainland. These two places are very difficult to fight. With an army of more than one million in Japan and 200,000 in Taiwan, the mass base in both places is not good. How can a war be fought without the support of the people?
Even if two super bombs are dropped in southern Japan, they may not wake up more than 100 million crazy people.
The more you think about it, the more things you do, the more difficult it becomes. Several people held a two-day meeting, and although they came up with a strategic direction, there were too many details, and the requirements for national strength were very high, such as people, ships, weapons, medicines, medical resources, and everything.
Japan's direction has been set, but the specific operation seems to be very problematic, and one of the links is the relationship with the United States. The relationship between the United States and Yan'an is still in a state of only doing but not talking. Xiaolu, as the concrete executor, raised his concerns. Zhou Gong, as the operator, introduced the process before and after, and also put forward the idea of raising the level of Yan'an's participation in international conferences.
The upcoming giant meeting, this time to Mao Gong to attend, only in this way can Yan'an's international status be improved, and some major events will be decided.
Although the Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army, and the Northeast Coalition Army exterminated the Japanese in huge numbers, a large number of anti-communists in the United States demanded that the Lend-Lease Act on the local government of Northeast China be stopped, and that a giant and an enemy should be avoided.
At present, the amount of military supplies received from the United States has been halved, of which, the production equipment has been discontinued.
Yan'an is planning for the post-war period, Chongqing is too, and the United States is even more so.
It was a very important meeting, and the approval of the North Korean plan was made, and the impact was difficult to estimate elsewhere.
Zhou Gong also talked about relations with the Soviet Union. Because the Soviet Union has received help from the Northeast Coalition Army, relations with Yan'an are currently very smooth. There was no garrison at all at the junction with the Outer Mongolian forces in the northeast. We also don't have garrisons. The border west of Lake Baikal is peaceful, with the transportation of supplies, the handover of supplies, the reception of convalescent personnel, and the peacefulness.
Because of the difficult situation in the Soviet Union, several large countries, France, the Soviet Union and China are in a state of huddling together to keep warm, helping each other and echoing each other. Because of the unity of the three countries, Britain's influence declined. Because the United States is not fighting well in the Pacific, American influence is also declining. Because the losses in Europe were too great, the United States and Britain were counting on a miracle on the battlefield in the USSR.
There is no one absolute power.
Relations with the Soviet Union were good in Yan'an, not Chongqing. Relations between Chongqing and the Soviet Union continued to deteriorate because of the interruption of aid.
In addition to the operational plans of Korea, Japan, and Taiwan, the content discussed at the meeting also included plans for southern China. At present, the hundreds of thousands of troops in the southwest are basically in a state of dormancy, and the New Fourth Army south of the Yangtze River is also in a state of dormancy; although Shandong has been liberated, the situation is very unstable, and all kinds of forces in northern Jiangsu are intertwined, and none of them can be achieved overnight.
The meeting also discussed another headache, that is, the problem of ****. At the moment, most of the **** factions are preserving their strength. Although the United States is not used to it, it is still arming and training them.
Intensifying the war against Japan will inevitably cause huge casualties, and that will give people an opportunity.
Now, the only places where the war is going on are Hunan and Guangxi. The guerrillas in the two provinces achieved brilliant results and suffered heavy losses. It is okay to fight guerrillas, but it is not possible to organize large-scale battles in the short term. Letting this war bring down the Japanese army in the Central Plains and the Yangtze River valley is the key to unraveling the situation in China.
Participating in this meeting, Xiaolu knew what it means to be a professional politician and what it means to be far-sighted, and they did see the direction of history according to the changes in the current situation. The path was even a little distracted: Am I going too far?
