Chapter 682: Revolution in the Third District, Strangulation
December 3, 1943. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Dihua.
Xiaolu slept for a while and was woken up by Xue Rui.
At noon, Zhou Gong convened a meeting to meet with some people from ethnic minorities in Xinjiang. On the way to the conference room, Xiaolu asked Xue Rui for a list of people who would attend the meeting, and after reading it, he smiled: "These people are all from the third district." ā
Xue Rui said: "The people in Dihua in the third district are here. In the past two days, I checked the materials of the revolution in the three regions and found that this was the spokesman cultivated in Xinjiang after the Soviet Union abandoned Sheng Shicai. The Soviet Union attempted to Asianize Xinjiang and turn it into a Soviet republic. Later history, the evaluation of this revolution was polarized, and most importantly, this was the origin of **. ā
Xiaolu said: "Later, didn't these people cooperate with us?" ā
Xue Rui said: "Not bad. The revolutionary units of the three districts were all integrated into the PLA. The Soviets inside later coerced the people in the sixties and ran back to the Soviet Union. Later, when the Soviet Union collapsed, these people regretted it and wanted to return to China, but they were refused. The reason for the cooperation was the beginning of the Cold War after World War II, and the Soviet Union, in order to cooperate with the Kuomintang government, abandoned these people and only demanded the independence of Outer Mongolia. In this way, in history, the prosperous era fell to Lao Jiang. Later, Yan'an's Lilang was unstoppable, and the Soviet Union had no choice but to give up. ā
Xiaolu said: "I remember that they took a Soviet plane to Beijing in 49 and died on the way through the Soviet Union. Said it was an accident. ā
Xue Rui said: "This is a historical unsolved case. However, the real ** forces were not completely attacked, so that some troubles continued later. ā
Xiao Lu was silent, and said for a while: "Shengmien, fight Mi Qiu." There is a policy in the United States that in the United States, there is only one language, English. ā
Xue Rui said: "It's time for the meeting. ā
In addition to the people on the list, there were also Chen Tanqiu and others in the conference room, He Wei was also there, he sat in the corner, without saying a word.
Xiaolu said: "I'm sorry, it's me who snooze, please forgive me." ā
Zhou Gongdao: "Then let's start now." I'm sure we all know each other already. The one who just came in was our secretary of the Northeast Bureau, Lu Xiaoming. After the meeting, you can communicate with him more. This time, I had talks with Secretary Lu and Stalin, Voroshilov and others. We have always believed that we will cooperate in the fight against the German and Japanese fascists. We decided, firstly, that all the Soviets in Xinjiang, Outer Mongolia, and the Outer Northeast of China were to return to the USSR, join the army, participate in production. Everyone with Soviet citizenship had to go back. Those of you here are no exception. Second, we will wage a series of wars in China to match the war with the Soviet Union. ā
The people in the room began to discuss.
Zhou Gong continued: "I believe you have received a notice from the Soviet Union now, right? ā
A couple of Soviets nodded.
Zhou Gongdao: "At present, the war has reached a critical moment. I hope that everyone will answer the call and join the war. Stalin believed that we needed to mobilize all our forces and throw ourselves into the battle against Germany and Japan. ā
"For the Soviet side, this is an order that must be carried out. ā
A young man stood up and said: "We have received an order to leave soon and take part in the Great Patriotic War of the USSR." ā
Zhou Gongdao: "There may be people who don't know, this is Comrade Zunon Taiyefu. Zunon Tayev was a Soviet national and an international communist fighter. ā
Zunon nodded to everyone.
Xiao Lu looked at this Zu Nong, the two happened to look at each other, Xiao Lu smiled, and the other party also smiled.
Xiaolu knew very well that this Zunon was a Soviet, and the Soviet Union sent him to instigate the national army. Later, because the Soviet Union wanted to form an alliance with the Chinese Communists, it agreed to adopt a policy of cooperation. He and several Soviet military cadres were the founding general of the country for 55 years, with the rank of major general. But in the sixties, they coerced a group of people to defect from China. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, these people again demanded naturalization in China.
Xinjiang policy was a major issue before Xiaolu left China. Mao Zhou and others discussed several times before deciding on the policy. The first of these policies was to send the Soviets away.
Zhou Gong and others discussed for a while, and said, "After the war, everyone is welcome to come back as guests." Next, we will discuss the issue of ethnic policy in Xinjiang. We must admit that in the past, there were many mistakes in the work of Sheng Shicai, a member of the CPSU, in Xinjiang. In previous years, severe punishments were already imposed on the Soviet side. He himself and several of his cronies were held in prison and punished. In the future, in the whole of Xinjiang, we must continue to implement the policy currently implemented by Comrade Chen Tanqiu and correct the mistakes of the policy. ā
The locals in the room started talking again.
Ahmat Jiang said: "Then the revolution in Xinjiang will not be carried out?" Will Soviet aid be interrupted? What about those Han Chinese who committed crimes? ā
Zhou Gongdao: "First, as for the aid of the Soviet Union, all of them were transported back to the Soviet Union with the comrades of the Soviet Union. Thank you for your understanding. The Germans have already hit Central Asia, and we must obey the big picture. ā
Xiao Lu said: "Regarding the person who committed the crime, we will gradually investigate and solve it in accordance with legal procedures." Those who should be killed must be killed. Please remember that this is a class contradiction, not a national contradiction. Sheng Shicai was an opportunist, and he represented the reactionary class in Xinjiang. We represent the oppressed toiling masses of all nationalities. ā
Zhou Gongdao: "At present, Xinjiang should focus on the War of Resistance and not carry out land reform. Yesterday, the central government approved Xinjiang to send hundreds of cadres and young people to Yan'an for training. This is a great opportunity for everyone to come to Yan'an. ā
The reactions of the crowd were mixed, some excited, some serious. Some are even a little depressed.
Chen Tanqiu explained the new policy in detail, and the meeting was discussed again and finally ended.
Xinjiang calls the interior of the country. The people in the mouth called Xinjiang and other places outside the mouth, and went to the northwest corner to take the west exit.
The improvement of the anti-Japanese situation in the mouth and the erosion of the situation of the Great Patriotic War in the Soviet Union have changed the mentality of the people in Xinjiang.
At the meeting, it was decided that Xinjiang would send 300 people to Yan'an in several batches to receive training. This time, a few senior cadres took a plane and left with the delegation, while the others were divided into several teams and arrived one after another within six months.
Immediately after the meeting, the delegates left and prepared to go.
Because the plane had to be overhauled and there were several Xinjiang delegates waiting for it, the delegation had time to stay in Dihua for three days, during which Zhou Gonghe Xiaolu had three secret talks with Tao Zhiyue, and also met with other generals and local high-level people many times.
Zhou Gong treats people kindly, making people feel like a spring breeze. In the past few days, the contradictions between the various forces in Dihua have been greatly eased.
During these three days, several officers from the Soviet Union left Dihua, and the weapons, cars, and even tanks they helped were transported to the Soviet Union from Ili and other places.
There were tens of thousands of Soviet citizens, most of whom were ethnic Russians and Soviet people sent over. Most of the senior cadres live in big cities, and some of them live in some pastoral areas in the three districts. According to intelligence, they are all leaving Xinjiang. It is said that there are some people who are reluctant to go back, but do not know how they are organized, and these people have even moved their homes.
I don't know how they discussed, but some people from the Sanjiang region, who were members of the CPSU, also left.
The Soviets began to leave, and the Han people brought by Sheng Shicai, especially the people from the Northeast, felt better. Some people are starting to inquire about Xinjiang policy. These people are all watching, and many of them are building a good relationship with Tao Zhiyue's subordinates and looking for a way out.
December 9th. Dihua.
The delegation is about to leave Dihua and Xinjiang. The plane will fly to Yan'an first, and Xiaolu and the delegation will break up in Yan'an, and the water is northeast. The rest of the delegation will be in Chongqing.
Before leaving, everyone had a half-day holiday. This is a rare moment of relaxation, Xiaolu and Xue Rui decided to go shopping on Dihua Street, wanting to buy some special products.
The two left the two-story building of the Eighth Route Army's office in Xinjiang and arrived at Yanghang Street.
It was still winter, not muddy, but dusty, and full of frozen horse dung, cow dung, and sheep dung. On both sides of the reception are low-slung bungalows, with shops and restaurants. It's not meal time yet, there are very few people in the restaurant, and there are a few restaurants killing sheep at the door, and the smell is everywhere.
Leaving Yanghang Street, after walking a short distance, you will arrive at the Grand Bazaar.
At this time, wool trucks whirring past on the street. Xiaolu said: "Look, this is a Soviet car, which used to transport mostly wool, so the locals also call it a wool car." ā
Xue Rui: "It looks like they're moving." The car is full of belongings. ā
Xiaolu: "It stands to reason that after the fall of Sheng Shicai, the Soviets should evacuate on a large scale. But we took over Xinjiang, and Chongqing also took over. Because of our relations, the Soviets did not retreat. Now, a lot of Soviets are in Xinjiang. Now, they have received an order, and this time they are really going to evacuate. ā
The two entered the Grand Bazaar. The Grand Bazaar is actually an open-air shopping street where you can buy everything. Xiaolu and Xue Rui had also heard about the Grand Bazaar in Tehran, but they didn't go because of security concerns. Later, his soldiers also fought a battle in the Grand Bazaar.
He couldn't go, so he had to ask a local friend to buy some stamps. At that time, the Soviet Guards and the British Guards gave them some gifts in order to thank Xiaolu and others. I heard that Xiaolu was collecting stamps, so I collected some stamps for him.
Now it's a bazaar again, but unfortunately the commerce here is far less developed than Tehran, and the slightly better ones are foreign companies, which sell Soviet goods. Nowadays, the war is tight, supplies are scarce, and most of the foreign companies here are closed.
As he was walking, he suddenly heard a noise, and a group of people gathered in front of him, and when he got closer, it turned out to be more than a dozen Han soldiers, quarreling with a few locals. The soldiers had guns in their hands. One said: "How! Did You Know? The Soviets retreated! Your dependence is gone. I still want to quarrel with Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu wants you a few oceans, I can afford you! ā
The group of locals, with knives in their hands, were furious and yelled. However, there is no confidence in screaming, after all, there are guns on the other side, and the bullets are loaded.
Xiaolu wanted to step forward, but after thinking about it, he still forgot it.
On the way back, neither of them spoke.
It is said that the revolution in the three districts is the origin of **, but in fact, this uprising is related to the government's ruling methods.
Zhou Gong led the delegation and stayed in Xinjiang for 10 days. During these ten days, Zhou Gong did a lot of work, and in a short period of time, he established the national policy and the principles and policies of ethnic work. He met with many high-level and religious figures in Xinjiang, which changed the face of Xinjiang in a short period of time.
On December 10, 1943, the delegation left Xinjiang and returned to Yan'an. On the same day, the delegation reported to Yan'an on the process of participating in the Cairo and Tehran meetings, and reported on the results of the work in Xinjiang.
Because a big war is going on in North China, the meeting also discussed the next step. Encouraged by the victory in Northeast China, Yan'an intended to make a plan to recover North China.
Later, according to the spirit of this meeting, Yan'an sent more cadres to Xinjiang. These cadres include military cadres whose purpose in going to Xinjiang is to strengthen the building of the armed forces. As a result, Xinjiang has undergone profound changes.
The meeting lasted two days. 12th. Xiaolu led the personnel of the Northeast Bureau to leave Yan'an and returned to the Northeast.
From September to December, Xiaolu stabilized the rule in the northeast, facilitated the participation of senior Yan'an officials in the Cairo and Tehran conferences, and carried out a series of Xinjiang governance work on the way back.
Participated in international summits and achieved great achievements. However, this is not to say that everything is fine. At present, although the Northeast Coalition Army and the Eighth Route Army have won a series of victories in North and East China, the task of Xiaolu is still very heavy.
The next task is North China.
******
1. The essence of the revolution in the three regions of Xinjiang was an important step in the Soviet Union's instigation of Xinjiang's Central Asia after the Soviet Union abandoned Sheng Shicai and the relationship with the Chongqing government deteriorated. Later, around the time of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Soviet Union was forced to form an alliance with China in the Cold War and gave up the Central Asianization of Xinjiang. The establishment of the government of New China and the incorporation of these armies into the People's Liberation Army (PLA) are very beneficial to the founding of China.
2. Some people say that the root of ** is the revolution in the three districts, which makes some sense, but the root is not here. The roots are in the era of Shengshicai, and even longer. The roots are in the USSR.
3. The basic lesson that Stalin and other decision-makers in the Soviet Union drew from Sheng Shicai was: "You can no longer rely on the Han warlords who rule Xinjiang, nor can you count on the national leaders, who are inextricably linked with imperialism; Imperialist money is much more real than Allah. ā
4. The Three-District Revolution took advantage of the warlords and Chongqing's bad rule over Xinjiang. In March 1943, the Kuomintang government issued an order requiring people of all ethnic groups to donate 10,000 military horses, and if they could not hand them over, they would pay cash at double the market price of the horses. In August 1944, the herders of Nilek County first launched an armed uprising against the "horse sacrifice movement". In early 1945, the revolutionary army defeated the Kuomintang. In the same year, the National Army of the Third District was formally established.
5, Sheng Shicai's father-in-law, moved to Lanzhou after Sheng Shicai left Xinjiang. In 1949, 11 members of the Qiu family, Sheng Shicai's father-in-law, were killed. The case caused a sensation throughout the country, and in addition to the dead people, the valuable floating property in the home was looted. Later, the case was solved, and the mastermind turned out to be Sheng Shicai's cadre in Xinjiang.
