In early August, shortly after Ouyang Jian returned to Ruijin, a delegation of the Central Committee led by Bogu arrived. Previously, according to the requirements of the Central Committee, all the officers and generals of the Red Army at and above the division level were concentrated in Ruijin, and it was obvious that an enlarged meeting of the Central Committee would be convened. The welcoming scene was very lively, Ouyang Jian carefully examined Bogu, and was a little disapprehensive about the enthusiasm from the other party, the general person in charge was young and handsome, high-spirited, but immature and a little arrogant. Infected by the good situation in Jiangxi, Bogu was particularly excited to shake hands with everyone cordially, highlighting the panache of the general leader. Especially when Bo Gu shook hands with Ouyang Jian, he unabashedly praised Ouyang Jian's military talent, obviously revealing his enveloping heart.

Ouyang Jian meditated on Bogu's experience in his heart, and carefully observed Bogu, who was only 25 years old, and a trace of apprehension disappeared. Ouyang Jian didn't say much with a smile, compared to the clear eyes and slightly conceited expression behind a pair of glasses in front of him, Ouyang Jian was obviously mature and free. In a moment, Ouyang Jian had a countermeasure, if he wanted Bo Gu to change his course and fight head-on, the only way was to take Li De. Li De is a Chinese name and he is Austrian. Looking at Li De with a cold eye, he probably thought that he was a representative of the Comintern, who was domineering and praised the arrogance and unruliness of the Germanic people.

Ouyang Jian knew that Li De was born in 1900 in the same year as himself, and he is 33 years old this year. The two sides shook hands politely, Li De used Russian for his brilliant achievements, undisguised praise straightforwardly, Ouyang Jian heard it clearly, but still waited patiently for the interpreter beside him to explain. Frankly speaking, Ouyang Jian has no good impression of Li De as a "prophet", but he must be passable in face. With a lively welcoming scene, everyone walked towards the town.

At the reception banquet in the evening, Ouyang Jian didn't say a word, and his silence was a little abnormal. After the meal, Bogu announced that a meeting of the main military and political leaders would be held tomorrow morning, and Ouyang Jian made a special trip to visit Runzhi that night. As soon as he saw Runzhi, he said with concern: "Comrade Ouyang Jian, you must control your emotions and not be emotional. "Comrade Runzhi, we can now conclude that our analysis is correct. The spirit of the so-called latest instructions of the Comintern is to liberate the whole of China and eliminate all reactionaries, so that such a hard-won excellent situation will be ruined. ”

Runzhi said with a serious face: "We have also thought of the new instructions of the Comintern, but we must pay attention to the tactics of struggle and must not be in a hurry. "I understand!" Then Ouyang Jian talked about his thoughts, and Runzhi agreed. The next day, when the principal military and political leaders gathered, Bogu was particularly excited to preach the current excellent situation at length and without stopping, and then changed the conversation and said: "Comrades, in accordance with the spirit of the new instructions of the Comintern, we already have the conditions for the liberation of the whole country, and in the next step we will continue to take military action and then win victories in several provinces." This time the Comintern sent us military advisers. Li De stood up and appeared, showing his swagger. In accordance with the spirit of the latest instructions of the Comintern, Comrade Li De will be fully responsible for military command! ”

Ouyang Jian couldn't listen anymore. "Wait! Comrade Bogu, if I heard correctly, this Comrade Li De is the supreme commander of the Red Army? "This is the decision of the Comintern, Comrade Ouyang Jian, do you have any objections?" Bogu expressed displeasure. Facing Li De, Ouyang Jian said in fluent Russian: "Li De, Austrian, formerly known as Otto and Braun, pen name Waffle. Born on September 28, 1900 in Munich, Germany. He joined the Communist Party of Germany during the Great War in Europe, participated in the creation of the Bavarian Soviet in 1918, and was arrested and imprisoned by the German government in 1926. He escaped from prison in 1928 and went to Soviet Russia, where he entered the Frunze Military Academy. Comrade Li De, I am not wrong! Li De was obviously unprepared and a little dazed.

"Comrade Li De graduated from the Frunze Military Academy in the spring of this year and then entered the Eastern Headquarters of the Comintern. Originally, the military advisers sent by the Comintern were Manferred and Stenn, but this person was not in place for a long time, and was replaced by you. May I ask Comrade Li De, a military academy graduate who has no combat experience and has not participated in a single battle, is you qualified and capable of commanding hundreds of thousands of Red Army troops in combat? Ouyang Jian's fluent Russian suddenly made Li Dezhen's mouth stammer. After the translation was accurate, Li De's face was red and his ears were red, which roughly meant that he carried out the orders of the Comintern. Ouyang Jian went straight into it with a single sword, leaving Li De's arrogance without anything.

Ouyang Jian said to everyone: "Comrades, I am not prejudiced against Li De himself, but I am very angry at such an irresponsible practice of the Comintern. This is a child's play with our hundreds of thousands of Red Army, and the Chinese revolution as a child's play. Comrades, what are we in the eyes of the Comintern? It is a big joke to let an immature cadet command us to fight, and it can be said that Comrade Li De is not qualified as a military adviser! The following people questioned it, and it was the military generals who expressed the most dissatisfaction. Li De couldn't understand Chinese, but he could see the attitude of the crowd. Li De began to fight back, talking about the war theory he had obtained from the Military Academy, and he was talking about the Tao, and ridiculed Ouyang Jian for being complacent after winning several small-scale battles.

"Comrade Li De, I do not deny that the Frunze Military Academy is very famous, but as far as I know, your academic performance is mediocre. As for the most advanced military theories in the world at present, they are nothing more than war experiences summed up on the basis of predecessors. Since we are talking about the most advanced military theories at present, I will start with the "Theory of War" written by the German military strategist Clausewitz・・・・・・ Ouyang Jian talked about the American Revolutionary War from Napoleon, and from the October Revolution in Soviet Russia to the Great War in Europe. In particular, when comparing the military theories of foreign military strategists with Sun Tzu's Art of War, they profoundly expounded the characteristics of modern warfare.

After the applause stopped. Bogu obviously lacked confidence and said: "Comrade Ouyang Jian, I don't deny that what you said is reasonable, but this is an order of the Comintern, and we must carry it out!" "Comrade Bogu, the Comintern commanded us without analysis, unrealistically, and irresponsibly, and it was difficult for us to blindly obey it. The Comintern was nominally an international organization, but in fact it was controlled by Soviet Russia, and the Japanese army adopted a non-interventionist attitude ・・・・・・ the September 18 Incident. The ruthless implementation once again sobered us that the Comintern was no longer fit to command us. Facts have once again proved that the Chinese Communists have matured in the test of blood and fire, and we already have the ability to dominate the cause of the Chinese revolution. ”

"Comrade Bogu, as the general manager, you can't take it for granted. We can't always be at the mercy of others, it's time to wean. At present, the nation is in danger and the mountains and rivers are broken. Japanese militarism will launch aggression at every moment, and we are blindly dependent on the Comintern, which is simply intolerable. If, now, we continue to fight the civil war in accordance with the so-called grand plan of the Comintern, we will be the sinners of the Chinese nation through the ages. "Ouyang Jian's last sonorous words were very shocking." I support Chief of Staff Ouyang in ending the civil war and uniting with the outside world, and we must get rid of the command of the Comintern. Peng Dehuai was the first to stand up in solidarity. All the military generals present stood up in solidarity and spoke in unison.

It was Bogu's turn to be stunned, and Li De flicked his sleeves and left the venue in anger. Enlai stood up with a serious expression and said: "Comrade Bogu, the stakes are very high, and I propose to convene an enlarged meeting of the Central Committee to discuss the question of the Comintern. "A few days later, an enlarged meeting of the Central Committee was solemnly convened, and there was no doubt that the decision of the Comintern was rejected by an absolute majority. The meeting reached a consensus again on urging the second cooperation between the KMT and the CPC. In view of the current excellent situation, a national united front should be formed as soon as possible. Although Bogu still served as the general leader, the supreme military command remained unchanged as a three-person team, and Li Deming was called a military adviser, but he was excluded from the core of military leadership.

The meeting decided to convene a new party congress at an appropriate time next year to elect a new leader. The invisible CCP International has been marginalized, and independence has become the main theme. The decision of the conference not to be made public for the time being in order to avoid an attack on the Comintern and Soviet Russia also meant that the Comintern could not know the exact information. Bogu came to the base with enthusiasm, and originally wanted to make a big difference, but in the blink of an eye, he was empty, and naturally his mood was very low. On this day, Ouyang Jian walked into Bogu's room with wine in his hand, "Chief of Staff Ouyang, you came to see my joke!" "Bogu's attitude is very unfriendly, and his expression is very indifferent." Comrade Bogu, I'm here to have a heart-to-heart talk with you. ”

In order to convince Bogu to change his preconceived notions, he must be persuaded to dispel his blind worship of Soviet Russia. Ouyang Jian smiled, put the wine and food on the table, and then took out two wine glasses, poured them full of wine, and raised them. Bogu raised his glass a little mechanically, and Ouyang Jian dried Bogu with a mouthful, only sticking his lips. "Comrade Ouyang Jian, now I know that the long-term wanton accusations against the Comintern are completely your masterpieces, and they can be described as well-intentioned." "Yes, I was the first to oppose the Comintern's full command of us. What I am opposed to is unrealistic, blind guidance of the Chinese revolution, and extremely irresponsible command. ”

"How much blood have we paid for it from 27 years to the present, under the command of the Comintern. On the surface, it was the wrong practice within the Party, but the actual root cause was in the Comintern. Comrade Bogu, how much do you really know about Soviet Russia? "It's not a joke! Although I have not been to Soviet Russia, I dare not say that I know it comprehensively, but there is no problem in knowing it. "Then let's talk about Soviet Russia. You don't deny that the Comintern was controlled by Soviet Russia! Bogu nodded. Then let's talk about Stalin himself! Many of the real situations come from foreign intelligence agencies, and there is no doubt about the authenticity. “

Ouyang Jian pondered for a moment and continued: "First of all, let me talk about Stalin's early revolutionary activities・・・・・・. Stalin had a rough and aggressive personality, could not listen to dissenting opinions, and created a cult of personality in the party. In order to deal with the Western camp, Stalin used the Comintern to guide color revolutions around the world, but in fact the purpose was to serve the interests of Soviet Russia. Since the establishment of the Jiangxi Soviet Government, has Soviet Russia openly supported us in the international community? No! Not long ago, our people approached the Soviet Russian diplomats in Nanking through their connections, hoping to provide military assistance by sea, but they were flatly refused. Bogu was shocked when he heard this.

"Beginning in 28 years, Soviet Russia accelerated socialist transformation and implemented collective farm measures regardless of the actual situation, with the result that the peasants and the government were opposed and riots were frequent. According to the statistics of foreign intelligence agencies, as of this year, tens of millions of wealthy peasants have had their property and land confiscated and sent to Siberia for reform. This year, the acceleration of the collective farm process and the failure of the grain harvest have led to a great famine in Soviet Russia, and the most serious of which is in the Ukrainian regions, where millions of people have starved to death so far. It was under such circumstances that Soviet Russia actually exported 40,000 tons of wheat to the United States in exchange for industrial equipment. “

"We do not deny that the motives of Soviet Russia are good, the starting point is good. But what is the difference between this kind of disregard for the lives of the people and tyranny, and is it still worthy of our trust? "Are these things true?" "It was obtained by a secret arrow through a foreign intelligence agency (in fact, it was Ouyang Jian's trick), and its authenticity cannot be doubted. At present, Soviet Russia is in a state of anxiety and is very worried that Japan will launch an attack to the north at this time. Therefore, Soviet Russia resigned itself to Japan's aggression and adopted a non-interventionist attitude. The purpose of this move by Soviet Russia was to worry that Japan would aim at itself. “

"And it is in the interests of Soviet Russia that a civil war continues to break out in China. In this way, you can attract the attention of Japan and relieve your own pressure. Comrade Bogu, do you think that the Comintern was not controlled by Soviet Russia? There is also the anti-rebellion campaign we have launched, and the loss of the base areas in western Hunan and Hubei-Henan-Anhui has direct causes for the suppression of the rebellion. The roots of how many good comrades have been wronged and shot to death are the roots of these shocking bloody lessons in the Comintern. I resisted the anti-rebellion movement in the Jiujiang base area, and facts have proved that the Jiujiang base area has the best development and the greatest achievements. Comrade Bogu, I hope you will go to the Jiujiang base area and let the facts verify it, and I believe that you will come to the correct conclusion. “

The Great Famine in the Soviet Union was not denied by Li De as a witness.
