Chapter 1288: Northeast Bureau (continued)

After talking about the general military strategy of the northeast, Liu Yimin began to talk about political strategy.

The current Liu Yimin is no longer the Liu Yimin during the Long March. At that time, Liu Yimin only had to think about fighting, killing and decisive, brave and decisive. Since the capture of Xi'an and the end of the Long March, Liu Yimin's role has changed, and he is no longer just a military general, he has more problems to consider and more responsibilities. As he is now, he is not only the commander-in-chief of the Northeast People's Anti-Japanese Democratic Alliance Army, but also the secretary of the Northeast Bureau, and he undertakes the heavy task of leading the party, government, and army in the northeast. This was the first meeting of the Northeast Bureau, and he needed to put forward correct ideas and clear requirements on how to fight the war in the Northeast, how to build the political power, how to develop the economy, and so on. Otherwise. This will lead to a situation in which each party will go its own way, repeating the chaotic mistakes made in history when our army first entered the northeast.

Historically, when our army first entered the Northeast, the troops came from different systems. The connection was not smooth, there was a lack of guns and ammunition, and it was very difficult at the beginning. At that time, Peng Zhen was the secretary of the Northeast Bureau. Since the chairman was bent on completely controlling the Northeast, the Northeast Bureau defended the city in accordance with the instructions of the Central Committee and resisted the Kuomintang army, resulting in an extremely passive situation, and our army could not gain a foothold under the fierce attack of the Kuomintang army and retreated all the way. Other comrades suggested that this method would not work, but Peng Zhen insisted that he was carrying out the chairman's instructions. Until the main force of our army withdrew from Shanhaiguan all the way north to the north of the Songhua River, the Kuomintang army stopped the pursuit. Only then did the chairman adopt the suggestions of ** and others, and decided to get out of the way and occupy both sides, and from then on, our army in the northeast began to gradually seize the initiative strategically. Peng Zhen was also transferred out of the Northeast. ** took over as secretary of the Northeast Bureau.

At this time, Liu Yimin was in charge of the northeast. The vision is naturally better than that of the predecessors in history, which does not mean that Liu Yimin is much smarter and more capable than others. The key is that he is a traverser, and he looks at the problem on the basis of the lessons and lessons of his predecessors, and there is a lot less hardship in groping in darkness and pain.

When Liu Yimin talked about the political strategy of the northeast, he analyzed that there are only two political forces in the northeast, namely, our party, our army, and the Japanese puppet, and the Soviet Union is the one that can influence the political situation in the northeast. Now Chiang Kai-shek has made a public statement and appointed many inexplicable officials, as if to seize control of the northeast with us, but the Kuomintang army has not a single soldier in the northeast, at best there are only some underground workers, and they pose no threat to us and can be ignored. However, Chiang Kai-shek also did a good thing, that is, he publicly announced the recovery of sovereignty over the Far East, the establishment of the Far Eastern Province, the special city of Vladivostok, and the Sakhalin Special Administrative Region, and the restoration of the local administrative divisions of Mongolia. In this way, as long as our army destroys the Kwantung Army, we will be able to recover from the Japanese puppets the territories that have been plundered by Tsarist Russia since the signing of the "Sino-Russian Treaty of Nebuchu," thoroughly restore the lost territory in the Far East that our Chinese nation has passed down from generation to generation, and avoid misunderstanding between our party and our army and the Soviet comrades.

Speaking of this, Liu Yimin once again stressed the question of how to handle the relations between China and the Soviet Union and between the two parties. The content of what he said is exactly the same as what Liu Yimin said to the chairman, that is, China and the Soviet Union should be friendly neighbors for generations, get along with each other on an equal footing, and help each other; ** and the CPSU are both Marxist-Leninist parties, equal fraternal parties, and work together for the realization of **. At the present stage, the common task of the Chinese and Soviet parties is to join hands to organize and lead the Chinese and Soviet peoples to defeat the aggression of the German fascists and the Japanese fascists.

Liu Yimin stressed: The Northeast must adhere to the spirit of the Seventh Plenary Session of the Sixth CPC Central Committee, unswervingly promote the Sinicization of Marxism, unswervingly implement the ideological line of seeking truth from facts, and unswervingly adhere to practice as the only criterion for testing truth. What is the Sinicization of Marxism? That is to say, it is necessary to integrate the principles of Marxism with the concrete practice of the Chinese revolution. When it comes to the northeast region specifically, it is necessary to integrate the general principles of Marxism with the specific reality in the northeast, and we must not rigidly apply them. What is the actual situation of the Northeast? First, the Kwantung Army was powerful, the puppet Manchu army was well-trained, and it had been under occupation for a long time and was completely disguised; Second, Northeast China has a strong industrial foundation, especially the abnormal development of heavy industry and mining industry related to the military industry; Third, Northeast China has a high degree of urbanization, with many citizens, workers, Mongolians, Koreans, Manchus, and Japanese, and the population composition is complex. Fourth, the Northeast has developed transportation, with many airports, railways and highways; Fifth, the Northeast is vast and sparsely populated, and the amount of land owned by farmers is large, which is suitable for mechanized operations, but crops can only be harvested once a year, and the only way to increase yield is to improve seeds, improve fertility, and build water conservancy; Sixth, Northeast China is rich in resources, with broad space for future development, and two excellent ice-free ports, Lushun Port and Vladivostok Port, which can connect all over the world; Seventh, the people of Northeast China suffered the longest period of Japanese and Russian aggression and were the most enslaved. These seven aspects are the current reality of the Northeast. Whether it is political struggle, military struggle, or economic construction, we must not divorce ourselves from this reality, and we must investigate, think, and plan around this reality. For example, if we want to establish political power in the northeast, we must consider the issue of the integration of the northeast, and logically speaking, all the provinces in the northeast should be directly under the leadership of the central government. However, now is the war years, and everything revolves around the center of victory in the war, so we can only set up a Northeast Bureau to lead the party, government, and army in the northeast in a unified struggle against the Japanese puppets. Under such circumstances, we can only prepare for the establishment of the Northeast Political Affairs Committee as the administrative leadership organ of the Northeast region. Each province has a provincial government. Originally, the commissioner's offices in Shandong and Shaanxi did not meet the requirements of the high degree of urbanization in Northeast China, so we needed to learn from the municipal system practiced by the Japanese in Northeast China and set up cities under the provincial level. The administrative level is equivalent to the special office, and the city has district and sub-district offices, and can also be subordinate to counties or county-level cities. Why? I said to my comrades. The reason why the world powers are stronger than China is that they industrialized early, second, they urbanized early, and third, they practiced mercantilism, that is, to protect and develop commerce. In the future, the development direction of our new China will also be industrialization and urbanization, and vigorously develop industry and commerce. The Northeast should take the lead for the whole country and create and accumulate experience. Again, due to the complex population composition of the Northeast. In establishing political power and formulating policies, we must also consider and take into account the interests of the compatriots of minority nationalities, so that they can appreciate the advantages of the Chinese nation being united as one and being masters of the country. Of course. This does not include the Japanese. They are aggressors, and they have to be reformed through labor. When Japan surrendered, we will deport them to their home countries when.

The applause of the cadres rang out at once.

Speaking of the specific economic development of the northeast, Liu Yimin said: There are two most important issues at present, one is to develop the military industry, and the other is to solve the grain problem. In the development of the military industry, the logistics command should immediately take over the Shenyang military factory and the Dalian military factory, quickly install the equipment brought from Shandong, and immediately produce it on a large scale, so as to provide sufficient ammunition for the big war. In particular, rocket artillery, rocket launchers, and rockets should be produced on a large scale, and priority should be given to ensuring the production of rockets. In particular, the Japanese army's Shenyang aircraft manufacturing industry, which was taken over by the Air Force Command, has ready-made design drawings, ready-made technicians, and ready-made equipment for the Japanese army. We must not only produce the Japanese army's aircraft, but also design and produce more advanced aircraft, produce 10,000 of them, and see if the little devil's plane dares to go wild in the Chinese sky! In solving the grain problem, the Japanese army regarded the northeast as a military supply base, and even implemented a rationing system in the northeast; Chinese could not eat rice and white noodles, and eating rice and white noodles was a crime and should be imprisoned. The little devils of Dog Day take food from the mouths of the Chinese and feed their soldiers, so that their soldiers are full to kill the Chinese. Now that our army has arrived in the northeast and will soon take complete control of Liaoning Province, the richest province in the northeast, the grain problem will be put on the table, and it is necessary to ensure that the market is sufficient and the needs of the army must be guaranteed, and it is also necessary to consider the timely resumption and expansion of grain production at the beginning of spring. When there is a shortage of supply in the market, there will be a price hike and refugees will be affected. If the troops were not supplied with food, the soldiers could not march and fight. If you don't grasp the spring planting in the early spring, you will be blind in the autumn. Therefore, we must manage and use the Japanese army's grain stocks well, and use them as a lever to balance the market. We also want to encourage the villagers to sell more grain and support us. As for the issue of spring planting, the old policy remains unchanged, and the troops will be reclaimed during their leisure time from fighting. We will produce tractors and harvesters in the northeast and engage in mechanized farms, and by the autumn we will strive to achieve partial self-sufficiency in the issue of military rations and complete self-sufficiency next year.

In addition to these two key issues, Liu Yimin emphasized the need to make good use of the technical talents brought back by Ni Hua from the United States, the technical personnel brought back from Shanghai, and the Jewish technical personnel, and give full play to their talents. At the same time, recruiting workers and soldiers in various parts of Liaoning is to expand the army to fight wars, and recruiting workers is to train skilled workers. Liu Yimin demanded that preparations be made now to develop drilling equipment and form a geological team to specifically explore and find oil fields. Dalian has a newly built oil refinery built by the Japanese army, and as long as the puppet Manchurians find an oil field, they can immediately produce gasoline and diesel to meet the needs of the troops.

When talking about this, Liu Yimin said with a smile that Mobil once conducted oil drilling in Northeast China and came up with the theory that China is poor in oil. Drilling in the northern Shaanxi oilfield is considered to be unsuitable for large-scale production. The little devil once drilled in the northeast to find oil, but failed to find it. At present, the oil fields in northern Shaanxi are limited in production due to hidden development, but they also light up the kerosene lamps in the whole province of Shaanxi. I think there should also be oil in the Northeast, and it is a much larger oil field than the northern Shaanxi oilfield. The Americans may have been limited by the theoretical level at that time, and really did not find oil in the Northeast. It may also be that they deliberately said that they did not find it, because the situation in the northeast is complicated and is the focus of the competition between Japan and Russia, and the Americans may not be willing to find a big oil field here to cheapen Japan and Russia. The little devils can't find it, maybe they didn't drill deep enough and chose the wrong point. This little devil is just a fool, eager for quick success, they must be drilling everywhere, drilling for a while, and then withdrawing when there is no oil. As everyone knows, the geological structure is diverse, and the petroleum industry is a new industry, the theory is not yet mature, and continuous innovation is needed. The fact that the Yankees and little devils can't find oil in the Northeast doesn't mean that we can't find it. I guess it's our ancestors who blessed our oil fields, and they didn't let them discover them, just waiting for us to discover them. It is for us to drill out the oil, so that the cars, tanks, and airplanes can be drunk to their heart's content, so that we can carry the puppet soldiers to fight devils, to liberate the people who were enslaved by the Japanese puppets, and to recover our lost territory.

The coalfields in northern Shaanxi were found by Liu Yimin, the oil fields in northern Shaanxi were found by Liu Yimin at the decision of Liu Yimin to expand the scale of production, the gold mines in Tongguan were also found by Liu Yimin, and some mines in Yimeng Mountain were also found by Liu Yimin and his technicians. In the minds of the cadres, Liu Yimin said that if there is an oil field in the northeast, there must be an oil field, and it is likely that it will be found soon. Their Mr. Liu always doesn't say things that can't be done or things that can't be done. The cadres listened enthusiastically and applauded over and over again. Even Chen Yun, Li Fuchun, Luo Ronghuan, Xiang Ying, Peng Zhen, Ye Ting, and Cai Zhong applauded over and over again.

The economic issues involved a wide range of issues, and Liu Yimin talked for a long time, and the comrades who were taking notes below were so tired that their wrists were sore.

Liu Yimin also put forward a new viewpoint, that is, although the Japanese are aggressors and are heinous, the Japanese are not doing nothing, especially in the management of enterprises and the technological level of the manufacturing industry. For example, the Japanese department store in Dalian has the best service attitude in the world. After we took over, we had to confiscate Japanese assets while learning from their management experience and retaining the quality of their services. Just because a Japanese-run department store has become ours doesn't mean we can abandon the original first-rate service. In that case, wouldn't we be as good as the Japanese? We must have a broad mind, not only to learn from books, to learn from practice, but also to learn from the enemy, everything we do not understand, do not know, half-understood, although the level is not high, must be learned, through study to improve.

Liu Yimin's speech was very long and covered a wide range of areas, basically covering all aspects of the northeast of Jingluo. Not only politics, military, and economics, but also culture and education will be thorough. It is equivalent to carrying out a general plan for our army to pass through the northeast.
