The historical Yan'an Rectification Movement completely smashed the dogmatism that sanctified the experience of the CPSU and the instructions of the Comintern, initially established the ideological line of seeking truth from facts, promoted the process of Sinicizing Marxism, defined Mao Zedong Thought as the guiding ideology of the party, and laid the ideological and organizational foundation for winning victory. However, there were major mistakes in the rectification movement, such as the movement to rescue those who had lost their footing, and many comrades were injured.

Liu Yimin's views are different from those of most comrades of this era. Because he knew in his heart that the Yan'an Rectification Movement had achieved great results, but the hidden dangers were also very great. Some of the methods of the movement to rescue the stragglers are not only a continuation of some of the methods in the expansion of the anti-rebellion, but also a rehearsal of the Cultural Revolution in later generations. There is also an even greater hidden danger, that is, the Yan'an Rectification Movement is also the beginning of the cult of personality within the party. In fact, the many detours and tragedies taken by our party after the founding of the People's Republic of China can actually be traced from the Yan'an Rectification Movement. It is pitiful to be rectified, and those who are rectified have not fallen into favor.

According to Liu Yimin's proposal, it is necessary to vigorously advocate intra-party democracy, unify the thinking of the whole party on the basis of democracy, and jointly strive for victory. In the midst of this, the most crucial thing is to establish and improve the system of intra-party democracy, ensure and maintain intra-party democracy, and put an end to the tragedy that may arise after victory in which individuals override the whole party. For this reason, he also wrote an article entitled "On Intra-Party Democracy", which caused numerous turmoil.

Luo Ronghuan didn't know what Liu Yimin was thinking, and then said: "Another thing, after the signing of the "Japan-Soviet Treaty of Friendship and Neutrality", the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Nationalist Government issued a statement strongly protesting against the Soviet Union's recognition of the puppet Manchukuo, the betrayal of China's territorial sovereignty, and the assignment of Sakhalin Island to Japan. The newspapers and radio stations in the rear were full of protests, and the crowd was indignant! The Central Committee issued a statement saying that the signing of the "Japan-Soviet Treaty of Friendship and Neutrality" was of great significance to prevent the Soviet Union from fighting on two fronts. In this way, public opinion in the rear area generally opposes our party's statement, which has a great impact! ”

After listening to Luo Ronghuan's words, Liu Yimin pondered for a while and said: "After the delegation is elected this time, we will send a major leader to lead the team back to Shaanxi to participate in the study. It is necessary to systematically sum up our experience in our work in Shandong, including our methods of developing troops, building base areas, developing the economy of base areas, and holding political power elections, and so on, and form written materials for study and exchange. It is necessary to let the comrades know what is the most important method for the rapid development and strength of our army in Shandong. We must not be careless in this matter, and we must make great efforts to carry it out, and we must sum up the essence of our thinking of emancipating our minds and seeking truth from facts and incorporate it into the party's ideological line. ”

Cai Zhong received: "I have to go to a major leader to lead the team, and I have to dare to fight and dare to tell the truth." Otherwise, studying and learning may turn into rebellion. There are many lessons from the past. Especially us, although we have a great record, our comrades are recognized. However, some comrades always like to pick a bone in the egg and sit back and talk about it, saying that we are not resolute enough in the struggle against the Kuomintang, that there are problems with our economic policy, and so on. Don't study to the end, but criticize us again. That's weird! ”

Cai Zhong's words are not nonsense, Liu Yimin caused a storm the last time he returned to Xi'an to attend the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee, and the "On Intra-Party Democracy" written later attracted criticism. Cai Zhong also said one thing less, that is, there are always people staring at Liu Yimin's personal life problems, and as long as there is an opportunity, these problems will become problems. If it weren't for Liu Yimin's great military exploits and contributions, it is likely that he would have been recalled to Xi'an to study at the Central Party School.

Luo Ronghuan disagreed with Cai Zhong's views on this point, saying that the present is different from the past, and the suppression of rebellion has become a historical term, and it is impossible to turn study into a suppression of rebellion, at best, it is only a rectification of the style. However, he agreed with Liu Yimin's proposal to send principal leaders to lead the team, because after all, Shandong is far away from the rear of Shaanxi, and the level of cadres who go there is not enough, and the weight of speech is not enough, so it is impossible to report the work of Shandong to the central authorities.

The sky has already seen the morning light, and the wind is still cold on the face.

Liu Yimin's thoughts drifted into the distance with the cold wind: "Organizing a delegation to study in Xi'an is a big deal, and it must not be sloppy. But we have more important things. I see that the international situation is about to undergo great changes. The original oil reserves of the little devils were only enough to last half a year, and part of them were consumed by the Japanese-Soviet war, and we captured Shanghai and put away the gasoline and diesel reserves of the Japanese 13th Army. The little devils must not be able to sit still, they have to think of finding oil. Otherwise, their planes and cars would have to stop. The collapse of the Konoe cabinet and the rise of Hideki Tojo have something to do with this incident. I am afraid that the Japanese army will soon march into Southeast Asia. With this attack, the United States will have to enter the war. Whether it is the Japanese or the German, they are all small countries lacking resources after all, and they are not opponents compared with the huge resource and industrial advantages of the United States. As long as the United States enters the war, the world anti-fascist battlefield will usher in the dawn of victory."

Luo Ronghuan said: "If it was really the Japanese army that declared war on Britain and the United States, then they were really not far from death." But will there be a possibility that Japan and the United States will not be able to fight? Little devils are not stupid, they are not stupid enough to hit the stone with an egg! ”

When Cai Zhong heard it, he said: "Maybe it's a little devil who is stupid and smart." Like this Japan-Soviet war, the little devils saw it very accurately. In the minds of normal people, the Japanese army could not even end the war in China, and was stuck in a mud pit and could not extricate itself, so how could it attack the Soviet Union again and fight on two fronts? It's a little devil. Yu Lian fought on the front line, taking advantage of the crisis of the Soviet Union, taking advantage of the fire and taking a big advantage in the Far East. Now that the Japanese army is in full swing, I am afraid that it will not see the British and American troops in Southeast Asia. I figured out that eight times out of ten they would do it! ”

What Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong said makes sense, in fact, there are still negotiations between Japan and the United States at this time. This negotiation is not, as some historians and military experts in later generations said, a smokescreen deliberately unleashed by Japan in order to paralyze the United States. On the contrary, the Japanese are sincerely negotiating with the United States and want to get the United States to open up the export of oil and other strategic materials to Japan through negotiations. The United States, on the other hand, wants to negotiate to force Japan to withdraw from the Triple Alliance of Germany, Italy, and Japan to ensure security in the Pacific region. The bargaining chip between the two sides is China, which is full of disasters and difficulties!

Liu Yimin studied military history and knew that Japan and the United States would inevitably go to war. On the surface, Liu Yimin said that Japan had to go to war with the United States for oil, but Liu Yimin knew in his heart that the United States was forcing Japan to go to war. If Japan had not attacked Pearl Harbor and started the Pacific War, the isolationist forces in the United States would not have agreed to the U.S. government's entry into the war. How can the United States become the world hegemon after the war if it does not enter the war? The US strategists are using the embargo against the United States, forcing Japan to withdraw from the Triple Alliance, and forcing the Japanese army to withdraw from China as a rope to tighten Japan's neck step by step and create opportunities for the United States to enter the war.

No matter how sincere the Japanese are in negotiating, they will still be able to escape the war! What's more, the Japanese are impatient when it comes to the end?

Liu Yimin threw away the cigarette butt and said indignantly: "The Nationalist Government is right to protest, the "Japan-Soviet Treaty of Friendship and Neutrality" itself is a treaty that betrays Chinese territory. What right did the Soviets have to give China's sovereignty over Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands to Japan? What right did it have to annex Mongolia to Manchukuo? On what basis should the puppet Manchukuo be recognized? In this matter, the statement of the Central Committee is a failure, and it should protest against the Soviet Union's peace with Japan and the betrayal of Chinese territory! ”

After venting, Liu Yimin's anger became a little smaller, and then he took out another cigarette and lit it, and said slowly: "However, then again, the "Japan-Soviet Treaty of Friendship and Neutrality" is also a good thing and an opportunity for China. The Soviet Union gave up its support for Mongolian independence and handed over the territory occupied by Tsarist Russia to Manchukuo. When we defeat the Kwantung Army, the problem of banning Manchukuo, the Far East, and Mongolia will be completely solved.

Including Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands, we will smoothly recover. If it weren't for the Japanese in the Far East, Stalin would not have returned these territories to us. Then you will have to hate for a thousand years! Do you think that the Soviet Union has a high degree of industrialization and a strong foundation, and relying on Chiang Kai-shek to fight the Soviet Union will scare him to death! I'm afraid it won't work by relying on our party, and the relationship between the two parties is there, so how can they meet each other in arms? Therefore, Little Japan is equivalent to mentioning that the Chinese have been busy for a long time and have worked hard. ”

Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong and Liu Yimin have been together for a long time, and they have already been instilled by his theory of the supremacy of national interests.

Cai Zhong immediately said: "Brother commander, you should go back to Xi'an, meet the chairman and the boss, go to the Central Party School to give a few classes, and tell the comrades about your ideas." I think you'll get the hang of it! ”

Luo Ronghuan's tight thick lips also opened, and his eyes looked at Liu Yimin through the thick lenses, and said: "Summing up our experience, practices and refining issues, I think it is better for the commander to preside over it himself." In the case of me and Lao Cai, the height may not rise to the height you require. There is also a problem, that is, if Japan and the United States go to war, the Japanese army may fight very easily at the beginning as in the Far East, but the United States is not the Soviet Union, their homeland is far away from the war, the industrial base will not be affected, and once it is fully mobilized, the little devils will not be able to bear it. In this way, the Japanese army will inevitably transfer the Kwantung Army and the elite divisions in the Guannai to rush to the Southeast Asian battlefield to participate in the war, and the Japanese army in Shandong may also be greatly adjusted. That's when our fighters appeared. Not only us, but also the fighters of the entire Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army appeared. The commander should go back to Xi'an and report to the chairman and the boss on how to seize the fighter. In this way, does the central government have to adjust the convening time of the Seventh National Congress? You can't concentrate so many cadres in Xi'an to study, right? ”

Liu Yimin almost hugged Luo Ronghuan and hugged him. This old fellow is worthy of being the marshal of our army's political work, and if he draws inferences from one problem to another, he will soon be able to see the deeper level. Yes, it is not in history that our army is much stronger than it was in history. With the chairman's courage and strategic vision, as soon as he reports himself, it is estimated that he will immediately set his sights on the issue of the northeast of Jingluo. It is absolutely impossible for this rectification to last as long as it has been in history. As long as the goal of unifying the mind is achieved!

Liu Yimin nodded and said, "I want to go back to Xi'an, report to the chairman and boss, and adjust the strategic deployment of our army." As long as the Japanese army declares war on Britain and the United States, we will consider marching into the northeast and use this as a basis to demand that the United States and the Soviet Union provide our army with a large amount of equipment. We, ah, are going to compete with the Kwantung Army for the Northeast. As long as the Northeast is recovered, the end of the little devil will come. Relying on the complete industrial system in Northeast China, we will have a decisive battle with the Japanese army and completely defeat the Japanese invaders in one to two years. ”

Originally, I got up early in the morning to collect vegetables, but it turned out to be a discussion of strategic issues, and the discussion was in full swing and quite fruitful.

After returning to the headquarters station, drinking a large bowl of radish and cabbage soup and eating a steamed bun and a wowotou, Liu Yimin drafted a telegram to the Central Committee, saying that after the Shandong Bureau delegation to the Seventh National Congress was elected, he would personally lead the team back to Xi'an, participate in the study, and report to the Central Committee.

The chairman called back and instructed Liu Yimin to return to Xi'an to report on his work recently, but not as the leader of the Shandong delegation, because the study time may be relatively long. In view of the actual situation on the battlefield in Shandong, it was appropriate for Liu Yimin to leave Shandong and return to Xi'an to study. Just send other comrades to lead the team.

The chairman also asked Liu Yimin whether he would consider launching a winter offensive to break the blockade and siege of the Japanese army's base area in central and southern Shandong, and open up the connection with the districts north of Jiaoji Road and the Taixi area west of Jinpu Road.

Liu Yimin called back and reported that he planned to fight a big battle in the winter to consume the strength of the Japanese army in Shandong. The specific ideas will be determined after returning to Xi'an to report.

After another day of busy work in the office, when she came home in the evening and teased Jing'er with Ni Hua, Ni Hua said that she heard something when she was at work today, Jiang Qing and Wang Ying had a conflict. Wang Ying cried and wanted to leave, saying that she was going to Xi'an. °

Liu Yimin has been so busy since his return that he has not bothered to visit cultural celebrities who have been transferred from Hong Kong. Today, Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong also reminded him that Comrade Liao Chengzhi and Comrade Pan Hannian reported several times that they wanted to ask the commander to meet with those celebrities in the cultural circles, and that Mr. He Xiangning, Mr. Liu Yazi, Mr. Zou Taofen, and Mr. Mao Dun all wanted to meet the commander.

In addition to about 1,000 cultural figures, the rescue and transfer of Hong Kong's cultural celebrities was a success, and it also brought back overseas Chinese young people who had returned to the mainland to participate in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. However, since the Japanese army had not yet captured Hong Kong, there was no such thing as the international friend and about 10 important military and political officials of the Nationalist Government who were rescued during the rescue of the Dongjiang Column in history. I am afraid that this part of the people will have to rely on the Dongjiang Column to rescue them in the future.

When Ni Hua said this, Liu Yimin remembered that Hong Shen, Jin Shan, Wang Ying, Butterfly and other filmmakers had all gone to the Shandong base. Jiang Qing was defeated by Wang Ying because of the competition for Jinhua in Shanghai, and now that Wang Ying has arrived in Shandong, Jiang Qing is preparing to build a film factory, and it is likely that there will be conflicts due to work.

Liu Yimin had planned to move this group of cultural celebrities to Xi'an, which is the rear area, after all, it is much safer than Shandong. It's just that there are too many affairs, and I haven't had time to arrange them yet. Ni Hua's words really reminded him that he had to meet these cultural celebrities immediately, they were all national treasures!

After making up his mind, Liu Yimin said that Ni Hua was mature and knew that he could reflect the problem in time. However, Liu Yimin also told Ni Hua not to talk to him about anything at work, and to report to Chen Tong, Wu Zheng and Yang Zhicheng, who were in charge of logistics. It is not allowed to blow the wind on the pillow and interfere with his decision-making. Otherwise, it is a violation of discipline.

Liu Yimin said the righteousness and strictness, but Ni Hua smiled, glanced at Liu Yimin out of the corner of his eyes and said, "I know, you don't allow your wife to interfere in politics." I told you just because I was thinking that this kind of thing is not a big deal, and you may not know. Where is it as serious as you say? ”

Liu Yimin saw the spring in the corner of Ni Hua's eyes, his heart was on fire, and he anxiously hugged Jing'er and coaxed Jing'er to be obedient, wanting his daughter to fall asleep early. Who knew that Jing'er didn't listen to persuasion, Hu Lingling's eyes were rolling, she just didn't sleep, and she kept calling her father with a milky voice, so anxious that Liu Yimin was holding her daughter and turning around in the room.

Ni Hua knew Liu Yimin's virtue, but ignored him, took a small notebook and sat down at the table, writing today's work log one by one.

Liu Yimin was in a hurry and had no choice but to hold his daughter and coax him, and recite nursery rhymes to his daughter. Seeing his big-headed ghost, he doesn't look at how old his baby daughter is, and he can understand it.

finally waited until Jing'er was sleepy and fell asleep, and Liu Yimin gently put his daughter on the small bed. Seeing that Ni Hua was still writing seriously, the evil fire in his stomach disappeared, so he took off his clothes and went to bed.

Before I fell asleep, I felt an itch on my face. When I opened my eyes, Ni Hua's pretty face was right in front of me, gently caressing his cheeks with the tips of his hair.

Liu Yimin let out a low roar in his throat, reached out and hugged Ni Hua's delicate body, dragged him onto the bed with a little force, and kissed his lips.

When the clouds and rain dispersed, Ni Hua lay in Liu Yimin's arm and said softly: "You take He'er and Ping'er back, it's okay to follow Tang Xingying, and it's okay to follow me, I know you miss them." ”

Liu Yimin was satisfied at this time, and when he heard Ni Hua say this, he asked, "Have you figured it out?" ”

Ni Hua whispered: "After I had Jing'er, I knew what a child is a mother's heart." You bring your sons back, not only do you want to, but Tang Xingying also wants to. Being old in Xi'an is also reassuring! ”

Liu Yimin said: "Actually, I didn't send my son to Xi'an because of you. One is that the environment in Xi'an is stable, and He'er and Ping'er can go to school normally. The other is that I am afraid that they will be proud of following me for a long time, and I think that if I am the supreme leader of Shandong, they will be too much. Children's education has to be grasped from an early age, I want my sons and daughters to grow up independently, have an independent and sound personality in the future, and have real skills.

It's Jing'er, when she reaches the age of going to school in the future, she will also be sent to school to live. Let's start with it, you can't pull it back. ”

This Liu Yimin can make a big sense of everything!
