609 Defending the Emperor!? 2. The Japanese Anti-War League
609 Defending the Emperor!? II. Japanese Anti-War League
Tianjin, Public Concession.
In the midst of an ordinary house, there is a small two-story building that looks a little dilapidated. Downstairs is the office of a trade union organization, and today the union leaders have gone to the city for a meeting, and there is no one in the city. There are no pedestrians on the streets, and it is very deserted. No one knows, in a room on the second floor of this small two-story building. An important meeting has been going on all night.
"Comrade Pan, Comrade Li, the anti-war sentiment in Japan and within the Japanese army has gradually risen, and some high-ranking generals of the Japanese army have realized that this war of aggression against China has no future. At present, a group of very influential officers of the Young Zhuang faction have secretly established a 'Japanese Anti-War League' in the hope of ending this war as soon as possible, which has brought untold disasters to the Chinese and Japanese peoples. Moreover, they also contacted our Japanese GC League through covert channels, and showed enough sincerity that I believe they really wanted to end the war. ”
The one who spoke was a good Japanese man about forty years old, with a pair of goldfish eyes and upside-down eyebrows, uh, Japan also had a good person, this good man named Nosaka Sanzo, had just been released from prison, and then took a special fee from the Military Affairs Bureau of the Japanese Army Ministry, and came to Tianjin, China. I came to meet with the comrades of the Chinese GCD, and as soon as I met, I threw out two alliances -- the Japanese GC Doctrine League and the Japanese Anti-War League, and I don't know if these two alliances together can make up ten people?
"It's time for this war to come to an end, and if it continues to fight, it will definitely cause both China and Japan to lose, and only imperialist countries like Britain and the United States will benefit." As soon as Nosaka's words fell, a young man wearing a Japanese army uniform who was sitting next to him picked up the topic again.
This Shaozo was a military attache of the Japanese Consulate in Tianjin, named Kagezo Frame Zhao. The Japanese Consulate in Tianjin was originally located in the Japanese Concession in Tianjin, but after the official declaration of war between China and Japan, the Japanese Consulate ran into the Tianjin Public Concession.
The two Japanese who were talking to each other were two comrades, Pan Hannian and Li Shiqun, who were sent by the China G Special Branch, and the two of them invariably took a breath, looked at each other, and immediately turned away, and did not speak for a while.
This incident is really a bit sensational, and the two of them know that the Japanese cabinet and the military department have not expressed their willingness to cease war to the central government through their channels. In other words, this Kagesa and those behind him were behind the Japanese 'government' to seek an end to the war...... It seems that there were Japanese "traitors" within Japan, and these Japanese "traitors" wanted to end the "War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression" and compromise with Chinese imperialism, which greatly exceeded the expectations of the central authorities.
After a long time, Nosaka's eyes just smiled at Pan Hannian, Li Shiqun and Ying Zuo. The room was extremely quiet, and at the end, I heard Pan Hannian coughing, nodded at Ying Zuo Frame Zhao, and said with a smile: "Do the people behind Mr. Ying Zuo really have the strength to end this war?" As far as we know, after Taiwan was occupied by the Kuomintang, there was a great deal of indignation in Japan, and officers and men of the army and navy and ordinary citizens marched day and night at the entrance of the Japanese Imperial Palace to ask for war, and Japanese newspapers of all sizes were also shouting and beating them. And your Emperor Showa has been reviewing the newly formed divisions at the Yoyogi training ground for several days, and it doesn't look like a situation that can end the war...... If the condition for this armistice is the return of Taiwan, it seems that you have found the wrong target. ”
Obviously, Pan Hannian expressed doubts about the ability of these two Japanese anti-war figures, after all, the current Japan is like a barrel of fire that has already burned, and it is already a great luck that there will be a few big explosions, how can it be extinguished all at once? After saying that, he smiled reservedly and looked at Shadow Frame Zhao. Ying Zuo just smiled: "Mr. Pan, if there is any hope of winning this war, of course we will fight to the end." However, as long as anyone with a little military knowledge knows the current situation, the victory and defeat of this war have already been decided, and any further fight will only cost the people and money, and exhaust Japan's national strength. So now the top leaders in Japan don't want to fight anymore, but there is no excuse to withdraw the troops from Manchuria, and the mission below is to create such an excuse. His voice suddenly increased: "After the matter is completed, the entire Jilin Province can be delivered to your party, and the materials that the imperial army has not had time to take away will not be destroyed, and will be handed over to your party." ”
That's a very attractive proposition
Ying Zuo's "color" was slightly cold, but he barely managed to squeeze out a few smiles and looked at Pan Hannian quietly. In his opinion, this proposal is simply a pie-in-the-sky thing for Zhong G, just by cooperating with these "Japanese 'traitors'", they can get the territory of a province, why not do it?
A hint of surprise flashed on Pan Hannian's face, and just as he was about to reply, Li Shiqun beside him coughed lightly and asked questions first.
"I wonder what kind of excuse you want to use to retreat from Manchuria? And in what way should our party cooperate? I think Mr. Kagesa also knows that our party's national righteousness is ......"
Ying Zuo Zhao smiled faintly, took out an envelope from his pocket, and handed it to Pan Hannian: "Of course we know the difficulties of your party, so we will not embarrass your party." This is a handwritten letter from Major General Nagata Tetsuyama, director of the Military Affairs Bureau of the Ministry of the Army, to Mr. Zhou, which clearly explains the way to end this war, and I would like to ask Mr. Pan and Mr. Li to pass it on on my behalf. ”
"Remember to hand it over to your party's Zhou Elai."
……
This handwritten letter from the hand of Nagata Tieshan was sent to Zhou Elai's desk that night, and after Zhou Elai read the telegram, he frowned and thought for a long time, and then asked the secretary to invite "Mao" ZD, Zhu D, Liu Sqi, Gu Shunzhang and others to discuss, and the not wide study immediately looked a little crowded after five people came in.
"This is the Japanese ......" Aside from the greetings of meeting, Zhou Elai directly took out Nagata Tieshan's handwritten letter, he frowned and thought for a while: "It should be a secret letter from General Nagata Tieshan, a Japanese anti-war person, to my party, in which he proposed a way to end the war, he asked us to propose together with the Kuomintang to try to threaten Japanese territory, and asked us to send the Red Navy fleet to attack the west coast of Korea, if possible...... We also want to send our army to land on the Korean Peninsula to "riot" and disturb it. He and the anti-war elements in the Japanese army would then use the threat to their homeland as an excuse to withdraw their troops from Manchuria...... And Jilin Province will be handed over to our party. ”
"In addition, General Nagata Tetsuyama also told us that the Soviet Union has always colluded with Japanese militarism and wants to carve up China, so he wants us to keep this matter secret from GC International, otherwise the Japanese militarists will get this news from the Soviet Union."
Zhou E came to talk about the raft and handed it to "Mao" Zd, and after reading it, "Mao" Zd gave it to Zhu D, and when everyone finished reading it, the room suddenly fell into silence.
The collusion between the Soviet Union and the GC International with Japanese imperialism is almost an open secret at the top level of the Central G. But it was surprising enough to really be picked out by Nagata Tetsuyama, and the method proposed by Nagata Tetsuyama to end the war sounded ...... It's a bit unbelievable. It is estimated that this guy will definitely collude with the pro-Japanese faction in the Kuomintang and urge the navy of the Nationalist "government" to attack the coast of Japan, so as to create an excuse for the Japanese anti-war elements to withdraw their troops from Manchuria
It doesn't sound like it's true, and it's likely that the letter was forged, and anyway, none of the leaders of the Central G here have ever seen Nagata Tetsuyama's handwriting.
"What do you think about this?" After a moment of silence, Zhou Elai asked bluntly. Although nominally he is the millennium veteran 2 of China G, it is Li Lsan who is sitting in the position of general secretary at the moment, but Li Lsan has long been no longer trusted by GC International, and there is no support from the local faction, so the real decision is Zhou Elai, the second-in-command. Moreover, Li Lsan, Wang Ming, Zhang Wtian, Bogu, and two other Soviet advisers did not attend today's talks......
"Mao" zd slapped heavily on the table: "The conspiracy is a conspiracy of the Japanese, and the Japanese will never give up their ambitions of aggression and expansion." They just want to take advantage of the attack on their homeland to further incite the war...... This is all a conspiracy concocted by the Japanese secret services."
He stood up and immediately sat down and paced in the room: "Now that the Japanese Navy has been defeated by the Kuomintang Navy and Taiwan has been occupied by the Kuomintang Army, there is already a lot of anger in Japan. If Korea and the mainland are attacked again, the Japanese people's emotions will surely be ignited, and they will completely go down the road of militarism. As for the retreat from Manchuria, it is even more impossible, and it is not possible that there will be a large-scale increase in troops, and judging from the map, the road from the Tsushima Strait to the south of Korea and then attacking the Korean Peninsula into the northeast of our country should be difficult for the Kuomintang Navy to cut off. They can use this line to massively increase their troops in the Northeast, and as long as the Kuomintang army is defeated in the Northeast, it is possible to force the Kuomintang to withdraw its troops from Taiwan and compromise and surrender to Japanese imperialism."
After listening to Mao's words, Zhou Elai also frowned. What "Mao" is talking about now is the analysis of the possible consequences of the Kuomintang's attack on Taiwan by the Central Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. Most of the Chinese and G leaders, including Zhou Elai, believed that if the Japanese were unable to hold Taiwan after losing the naval battle, they would definitely intensify their offensive in Manchuria in order to force the Kuomintang to sue for peace and exchange Manchuria for Taiwan. Therefore, during this time, the Chinese and G were ready to carry out guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines after the fall of Manchuria, and even prepared in case they were attacked by the Japanese army.
As for the Japanese army's compromise and surrender to Chinese imperialism after its defeat in the Taiwan Strait, no one thought about it......
"Japan now has nearly 700,000 troops in Manchuria, but it still can't help the 300,000 Kuomintang troops, and I think they can't win no matter how many troops they increase." Zhu D disagreed with this view: "I think the Japanese really can't fight anymore, and the 700,000 troops in Manchuria alone will be difficult to sustain the war without 40,000 or 50,000 tons of supplies every month. Now that Japan no longer has the right to control the sea, all the supplies have to go through the Korean Peninsula and be transported by land, and you can see how long the transportation line is if you look at it from the map. Moreover, the west coast of the Korean Peninsula was also exposed to the threat of the Kuomintang navy, and if they succeeded in landing there, the 700,000 Japanese troops in Manchuria would be in danger of total annihilation. ”
"Then they can also station a large number of troops on the Korean Peninsula, haven't they already mobilized three million troops now?" Liu Siqi said lightly: "Put 500,000 on the Korean Peninsula, 1.5 million on Manchuria, and 1 million on the mainland, so the Kuomintang won't dare to attack, right?" ”
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Zhou Elai spoke very slowly, and seemed to be thinking as he spoke: "The report given to us by GC International mentioned such a situation as above, when the Kuomintang Navy fought the Japanese Navy in the South China Sea two days ago, it retreated into a sea area called the Sulu Sea, which is close to the American Philippines and is the sphere of influence of the United States. However, when the Japanese navy then pursued into the Sulu Sea, it was blocked by the American navy, so that it lost its fighters and allowed the Kuomintang navy to escape. Such an act is a serious violation of international law, and it is clear that behind the war that broke out between Chinese imperialism and Japanese imperialism, there are two major imperialists, Britain and the United States, wrestling. The United States is the backstage of the Kuomintang, and Britain should be the backstage of Japan; although Britain is now the hegemon of the world, the United States has the strongest national strength in the world, and the United States supports the Kuomintang more than Britain supports Japan, so Japan has no choice but to give in. ”
This is too reasonable, and it is too Chinese "color", whether it is making trouble or rebelling in China, it is inseparable from the backstage, for example, why is Comrade Wang Ming so arrogant? He has been purging and rectifying people all day long, and he has offended all the powerful factions in the party, and no one dares to touch him until now? Isn't it because there is GC International in the background? Otherwise, this one would have fallen long ago
At present, there is not much difference in strength between Chinese imperialism and Japanese imperialism, and Japan is completely capable of holding on. However, as soon as US imperialism, the backstage of Chinese imperialism, "shows its head", it is impossible for tiny Japan not to admit defeat. Although the Japanese have recently worshiped Britain as an old man, this British old man refused to come forward at a critical moment, this time in the South China Sea, the old American man drove out the warship to stand up for the Kuomintang, but Britain behind Japan did not dare to pull out the Far East Fleet to support Japan, so what confidence did the Japanese have to fight?
These words deeply touched the "Mao" zd, who did not have a backstage and relied on his own hard work, he nodded and said: "What E came to make sense, the Kuomintang has found a good backstage, and with the support of the backstage boss of the United States, the Japanese seem to really can't hold on." Speaking of this, he looked at a few people in the room, and when he saw that everyone was happy, he sighed again: "The United States can't even bear Japan's backstage, what should we do when it's our turn in the future?" And we are not united now, and we have to divide ourselves from this faction and that faction to fight with ourselves......"
"Runzhi" Zhou Elai hurriedly interrupted the words of "Mao" ZD, he knew that "Mao" ZD had a different view on the "Suto War", but the Trotskyist matter was Stalin's rebellion, if Zhong G did not align with Stalin on this point...... Daddy Si was angry, and the consequences were very serious
It seems that the Japanese anti-war figures, represented by General Nagata, are indeed sincere. Shunzhang, you go to Tianjin to talk to that Nosaka Sanzo and Kagesa Akira, and tell them that we can cooperate, but they also have to cooperate with our actions. Boss, the Eastern Crusade army must also be ready to dispatch as soon as possible. ”
Shunzhang and Zhu D replied at the same time, and Zhu D said: "Is Zhang Xueliang's matter to send someone to negotiate with the Kuomintang again?" Nagata's letter asked us to dispatch the Red Navy to bombard North Korea, and if it were not for Zhang Xueliang, the Red Navy would only be afraid that it would not be able to take command. ”
Zhou E thought about it and nodded: "Okay, I want to send someone to talk, but who to send?" Runzhi, boss, do you have a suitable candidate to recommend? ”。
"Wang Ming and Wang Ming are the comrades most proficient in Marxism in our party, and if he goes to fight against Luo Yaoguo, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort." Uh, this guy is more annoying, so it's better to send it out for a while......
When Wang Ming was recommended by Zhou Elai, Mao, Zhu D, and other comrades to go deep into the tiger's "den" and fight against the Kuomintang reactionaries at the Politburo meeting the next day, his eyes widened and he couldn't believe his ears.
"Comrade Wang Ming, you are the most outstanding Marxist-Leninist fighter of our party, and it is only fitting that you should undertake such an arduous task as negotiating with the Kuomintang." Zhou Elai looked at Wang Ming calmly: "Although this time we want to hand over the Guanxi territories of Zhili, Lubei, Beijing, Rehe, and Chahar to the national 'government', this does not mean that we have to give up our commitment to the tens of millions of poor middle peasants on those territories, we must ensure the fruits of our land, we must ensure that the peasants who participate in the land, and we must ensure that the peasants who participate in the land will not be counted after the autumn, and we must also ensure the legal status of our party on these lands." And if possible, your negotiations with the Kuomintang should also involve the peaceful reunification of post-war China. ”
"What" Wang Ming looked at Zhou Elai with a look of surprise, Comrade Wang Ming was always a little worried about going deep into the tiger's "den" to fight against the Kuomintang or something, not that he was afraid that the Kuomintang would detain him if something happened again, but that he was worried that the talks would not be good, and that he would not be able to grasp the relationship between adhering to principles and flexible political skills
However, before he could think of the words to shirk, Zhou Elai's slightly serious voice came up again: "On the issue of peaceful reunification after the war, I estimate that we will definitely talk about it if we don't talk about the Kuomintang. However, when we talk about this issue, we must not follow the Kuomintang's line of thought, and the Kuomintang will certainly propose some kind of democratic constitutionalism, which is bourgeois democracy, not the dictatorship of the proletariat that we want, so we cannot be fooled. As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Mifu, and saw that the other party's face was calm, and then said: "Our condition should be that the Kuomintang answer the three major policies of uniting Russia, uniting the Communist Party, and supporting the workers and peasants, and only when the Kuomintang can truly seek benefits for the workers and peasants, who account for the overwhelming majority of the population, can we have the basis for peaceful reunification with them, and you should also take this opportunity to tell the democrats, intellectuals, and proletariat of the Kuomintang about this viewpoint of our party." ”
