Chapter 184: The Pros and Cons of the Incident

On the way to the headquarters for a meeting, He Zhengdao thought about the Xi'an Incident if it really broke out, and what position the Red Army should stand on, and the pros and cons of this incident to the Red Army.

From the first Kuomintang-Communist cooperation to Lao Chiang's five anti-encirclement and suppression. This leader of the Republic of China was an object of extreme hatred for countless commanders and fighters of the Red Army. If there is a chance, I am afraid that many people want him to die.

It is difficult to find that now this kind of Japanese invaders are looking at each other, and warlords everywhere have self-respect. If Lao Chiang really died, it might not be of much benefit to the Red Army. For the Republic of China as a whole, the same is not necessarily a good thing.

He Zhengdao, who came from later generations, also heard a lot of comments about Lao Jiang. There are good ones, and naturally there are bad ones. But there is one thing that many people agree on. That is, Lao Chiang was a nationalist.

Although he eventually retreated to the treasure island, Lao Chiang still insisted on the claim that the treasure island was an inalienable territory of China. This point, compared with many later rulers of the treasure island, is undoubtedly still worthy of affirmation.

He Zhengdao, who didn't sleep all night last night, thought more about this. But as the commander of the Red Army's independent column today, He Zhengdao was thinking about what role the Red Army should play after the Xi'an Incident last night.

Compared with the previous life, I have read a lot of information, and some people say that the Xi'an Incident was instigated by the Red Army in order to sabotage the encirclement and suppression plan that was being prepared to be implemented at that time. What the truth is, perhaps only those who have lived through that period of history know.

At least what He Zhengdao has experienced now is that the Red Army really did nothing in this matter. Even today's Red Army has changed a lot compared to history. But everyone knows how risky this kind of military advice is.

Although it is a bit of a big rebellion to kidnap the head of a country. It's shocking and incredible. But He Zhengdao still feels that in such a situation. This seems to be excusable.

If the sixth encirclement and suppression war planned by Lao Chiang starts, whether it is the attacking Central Army. Or the Red Army on the defensive, casualties are inevitable. Even He Zhengdao had thought about it before, and let the saber attack to carry out the decapitation battle.

The generals of the Central Army who were in charge of the encirclement and suppression were all beheaded or kidnapped in order to prevent the continuation of the encirclement and suppression war. But after thinking about it, I am afraid that this method is still unreliable, and the generals are also obedient to orders.

As long as Lao Chiang did not dispel the idea of encircling and suppressing the Red Army, the battle to encircle and suppress the Red Army would not stop. So, in this case. It is very necessary to teach Lao Jiang a profound lesson.

When I came to the war room of the headquarters, there was also a cave with the sign of the headquarters hung, and He Zhengdao just saluted and said hello. Mao Taizu frowned a little and said, "You didn't rest last night, okay?" Why are the two eyes so red? ”

Mr. Zhu and Zhou Enlai, who heard this, were a little surprised. But He Zhengdao quickly smiled bitterly: "Yes, I didn't have much rest last night." It's not that I don't want to rest, but I'm deducing the operational plan of Yulin's defensive counterattack.

Didn't Vice Chairman Zhou say the day before yesterday that it is possible for the Central Army to encircle and suppress us launch an offensive today? I just thought. Before rushing back to command the battle, it is best to deduce the possible situation on the map first.

As several leaders know, I am personally good at fighting offensive battles. This time. The pressure on our independent column is not small, and how to win at the lowest cost is also something I need to think about carefully. Thinking about it. I didn't expect it to be dawn. ”

Such a reason, for the previous speculation He Zhengdao. Mr. Zhu, who did not foresee that something big would happen today, was also slightly relieved. If He Zhengdao could do it today, he would have expected that something big would happen. That would be amazing.

In fact, this is an excuse that He Zhengdao has thought of a long time ago. The purpose is to be afraid that someone will ask him why he hasn't slept all night. Now it seems that he used this excuse really well. Even last night, he did a war game on the map.

This also means that if someone wants to ask him what the result of his deduction looks like, He Zhengdao can still say a series of plans. After all, as the commander of an independent column, this is also He Zhengdao's own job.

Hearing He Zhengdao's explanation, Mao Taizu directly handed the two telegrams to him and said, "Look at these two telegrams and talk about your views on this matter." There was a meeting two days ago, and it seems that you and Mr. He had this kind of speculation.

If you have any ideas, you can also boldly say that there are no outsiders here. Although the current situation is unclear, it can almost be determined that the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army are only afraid of joining forces. Whether Lao Jiang is dead or alive is unknown for the time being. ”

He Zhengdao, who pretended to be surprised, looked at the two telegrams very carefully, and quickly said: "What do the three leaders mean, the Northeast Army and the Northwest Army are opposed?" If this thing is true, I am afraid that it will be a big thing that pierces the sky! ”

We all know this, do we still need to tell you about it?' Now we want your opinion on this matter. Also, what do you think we should do in this matter? Say it boldly, don't rush! ’

One or two boldness in a row is enough to show that Mao Taizu attaches great importance to He Zhengdao's suggestion. At least judging from the current situation, as long as it is the situation speculated by He Zhengdao, most of them have been fulfilled. And its arrangement seems to be very effective.

Over time, Mao Taizu, Mr. Zhu and others were also willing to listen to He Zhengdao's advice. As long as things are good for the Red Army, Mao Taizu and Mr. Zhu will not care who did those things.

After thinking for a while, he said: "If things are really as we guessed, the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army will join forces to do this. So at the moment, the first thing we need to know is whether Lao Jiang is dead or alive in the crossfire in the early morning.

At least judging from the current situation, the chances of him still alive should be relatively high. Although Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng joined forces, they were afraid that they would not dare to shoot Lao Jiang in the matter of Lao Jiang's life and death.

In the final analysis, even if Lao Chiang has many wrongs, he is still the legitimate and internationally recognized leader of the Republic of China. This kind of rebellion-like move is just afraid that it will not be recognized by too many people, even if he has unfortunate intentions.

From the standpoint of the Red Army, I think there must be many people who hope that the old Chiang dies. But put aside the hatred between our two parties and look at this matter, the living old Chiang and the dead Lao Chiang, which is more beneficial to us? ”

In the face of He Zhengdao's inquiry, I remembered the Red Army that died in the five anti-encirclement and suppression, and the things that were wanted by the Central Army in these years. Mao Taizu actually hoped that such an enemy would die sooner rather than later.

But as the leader of the party, Mao Taizu was well aware of the current situation, and it was more beneficial for the whole country for Lao Jiang to live. If Lao Jiang really dies, the southern region controlled by the Central Army will also be completely chaotic.

Once the central army has civil strife, the warlords in various places who have lost their restraint will presumably also start a fierce confrontation again to seize the throne of this leader. If that were to happen, it would be a disaster for the entire nation.

Mao Taizu, who was silent for a moment and lit a cigarette, finally asked: "Then tell me more, if Lao Jiang dies, what should we do?" If Lao Jiang is alive, what should we do? ”

'Commissar Mao, put aside our hatred for him. At least one thing, we still have to admit. Compared with our deterrent effect on local warlords, Lao Chiang's Nationalist Government was more able to suppress the ambitions of those local warlords.

As long as he lives, we will destroy our minds, but I am afraid that we will never be able to dispel them. But again, the other warlords did not dare to do anything too much. At least for now, I still hope he is alive.

But in this matter, if the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army really carry out military advice, then we should avoid suspicion. At least in this situation, it is best for us to pretend that we don't know what to do, and first see the reaction of the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army.

If Lao Jiang is still alive, we should act as a mediator and let Lao Jiang know that we still have the right to speak. If Lao Jiang dies, then what we have to do next is to enter Xi'an and completely take the whole territory of Shaanxi.

At the same time, expand your troops as fast as you can to prepare for the upcoming warlord melee. In addition, it is also necessary to be prepared for the little devils to launch aggression at any time. Only with heavy troops in hand can we ensure our right to speak.

At this moment, we have more than a million troops. Then, even if Lao Jiang is dead, at least we still have to fight with the little devil and take the opportunity to find a way to gain the recognition of the people and the world. ’

After these words were spoken, Zhou Enlai continued: "Xiao He, what do you mean that we have to pretend not to know about this matter at present? Is it? ”

'Yes! In order to avoid speculation from the outside world, we teamed up with the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army to plan this incident. We should wait for the specific news to come out before making the corresponding power-up.

If we can, in the electrification, we can count Lao Jiang's crimes. Finally, we do not agree with this view of military advice. I believe that by doing so, we can also gain recognition from the outside world and clear our suspicions.

If Zhang Shaoshuai invited us to come over, we must also make it clear in advance that we were persuaded to make peace in the past. If he does not invite us, he must also strongly urge all parties to refrain from using force to solve the problem and preserve the vitality of the country's war of resistance.

Judging from the current situation, it is estimated that the Central Army is in a mess. For the rest, there should be someone to fight and someone to fight. And we may be the best candidates to act as a mediator between the two sides.

In the role of this intermediary, strive to get the maximum benefit. At the worst of all, Lao Chiang should agree to stop the military action of encirclement and suppression against us, and openly send a telegram to unite all parties and factions to form an anti-Japanese united front.

I didn't dare to think too deeply about the rest. But I think it's very good for us if this is handled well. It's best to get Lao Jiang to agree and rehabilitate the black hat he put on our heads. ’

Roughly said some of his own opinions, that is, this time you can't take the initiative to come up, you have to ask people to come over. Only in this way can the role of the Red Army be more prominently displayed and more benefits can be obtained! (To be continued.) )
