China has been a big country since ancient times, from the **** period began to expand its territory, to the Qin and Han dynasties basically occupied all the nearby territories suitable for survival and farming, culturally it is a big cut ahead, thousands of years of pride has long been soaked into the bones, although the servile rule of the Qing Dynasty and a series of defeats in modern times make the Chinese not proud, and even many people began to feel inferior, willing to be slaves, and even some people have no masters do not know how to be good, But the people in this cave are all the top people in China at this time, and everyone has an extremely tough personality, and now they see the opportunity to break away from the Red International and become their own masters, and it is impossible not to be moved. After all, at this time, they were no longer at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, and everything was viewed from the perspective of class struggle, and the interests of the nation and the state made them gradually begin to think about the independence of the Chinese Red Party.

Dong Biwu was one of the founders of the Chinese Red Party, he immediately understood Chairman Mao's thoughts, he closed his eyes and thought for a long time, and finally the first one said, "First of all, we need to re-sort out our relationship with the Red International, is it subordinate or equal?" ”

Hearing Dong Biwu's words, Chairman Mao and Zhou Guansheng glanced at each other, and the stone in their hearts fell to the ground.

Lin Boqu joined the party in 1921, and there were few older than him in the whole Red Party, he nodded on the table and said, "When we founded the Red Party, the Soviet Ge Ming had already won, but everyone should pay attention to the fact that we only applied to join the Red International when we were in the Second National Congress, that is to say, it is not because of the Red International that we have the Chinese Red Party, but because we are immature and need someone to help, we joined the Red International, which is like a child just born." At the beginning, he couldn't even walk, and he had to be supported by Red International to embark on the road of reality. We and Red International should be a teacher-student relationship, or a brotherly relationship, not a father-son relationship! ”

Chairman Mao's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "Lin Lao, this brotherly relationship, teacher-student relationship." I think it's just right, our Red Party has been 19 years now, and as a person is the time to become an adult, I think our party has gradually matured, just like an adult who wants to leave home to go outside, our party should also slowly take charge of itself. ”

Lin Boqu said with a smile, "We are not just established now, I remember that at that time, we couldn't even pay the fare for the event, and many people took out loans to get Geming, I remember 1927." The Red International gave us a million dollars, and without the Red International we would all starve to death, but now we have a vast base area, industry, agriculture, and we can be completely self-sufficient. But I don't think it's appropriate to completely dissociate itself from the Red International at this time. What we should do is to make our voices heard, let Red International know that we also have our own ideas, just like when the younger brother grows up, the elder brother wants the younger brother to do things, and the younger brother thinks it is inappropriate, just say it. ”

Lin Boqu is the chairman of the border region. He has the best understanding of the economic situation in the border areas, and in the past two years, with the efforts of ****, Cao Juru, Ren Chi and others, the economy and industry have achieved gratifying results, and Lin Boqu is not worried that if the Red International does not provide funds, the Red Party will collapse. Therefore, he also has the confidence to say such things.

Chairman Mao took a puff of cigarette and said: "The Red International is an indelible help to our Chinese Red Party. But now he has put forward this request, which I also think is inappropriate, so let's vote, let's vote, not to mention the relationship with the Red International, whether to agree not to act according to the orders of the Red International? ”

After speaking, Chairman Mao was the first to raise his hand, Zhou Guansheng, Dong Biwu, Lin Boqu and others raised their hands one by one, and everyone's hands trembled a little, which was the first step for the Chinese Red Party to make its own path.

Chairman Mao nodded and said, "But I also think that the existence of relations with the Red International is conducive to our future struggle, first, with the Red International, 203 provided us with the materials, although we don't say it, but the outside world will naturally think of the suppliers of these materials as the Red International and the Soviet Union." Second, the Red International is conducive to our continued unity of the cadres in our Party, and there are still some comrades in our Party who have not completely changed their thinking and will take time. Do you have any opinions? ”

Seeing that everyone did not object, Zhou Guansheng said, "Then it is decided, not to hand over the weapons, not to explain the source, the party will reorganize the relationship with the Red International, and the party will continue to communicate with the Red International, requiring it to take into account our special situation." ”

-- Moscow

"Smack" Stalin gloomy, sitting in his seat smoking a pipe.

Dimitrov could not help but feel afraid, everyone knows that it does not matter if Comrade Stalin is angry with you, but if he does not speak to you anymore, it means that the end is coming.

"He thought we wouldn't know if they didn't tell us? Hum! Stalin laughed, "It's just some LT-38, self-righteous!" ”

Dimitrov asked in surprise: "Comrade Stalin, how do you know?" ”

Beria, however, understood that this must have been told to Stalin by Japanese government spies.

Dimitrov asked: "Do we want to express our dissatisfaction with Yan'an?" Or some punishment for it? Or remove the Mao who did not obey the orders of our Red International? ”

Stalin shook his head and said, "No, Mao's prestige in China is very high, he just led the Chinese Red Party to victory, not we can remove it with a telegram, and now there is no role in the Chinese Red Party that can replace him, in addition, the strength of Yan'an is not a completely bad thing for us, you have to look at the problem holistically, the consequence of Yan'an's military strength is that the Japanese army has to focus on Yan'an, and our east will be safe, well, this matter will be put like this first, The Japanese army will soon counterattack them, if Yan'an can't hold on, it will naturally come to us and beg us, don't call back, just act as if this incident never happened, okay, let's talk about the Czech Republic."

-- Ji County

Yan Xishan sat in the first place with his eyes closed, and below him were the various officers of the Jin Sui Army, and in front of them were the return calls from the Eighth Route Army.

"What do you think? Now the Eighth Route Army refused to come to Ji County on the grounds that the war was undecided, and also asked us to go to Luliangshan, saying that it was to discuss post-war matters. Do you say we're going or not going? Yan Xishan opened his eyes and asked.

An officer immediately said, "Of course you can't go, Sir Yan, you are the superior, where is the superior to listen to the affairs of the subordinates, besides, now that the war has just ended, there are still many Japanese troops scattered in all corners of the people." What if the Eighth Route Army disguised itself as a Japanese soldier and carried out an assassination attempt? ”

Yang Aiyuan also said, "That's right, Chief Yan, I don't think we should go, let's send another telegram to the Eighth Route Army, let them come." ”

At this moment, a vast-looking officer stood up and said, "I don't think so, Chief Yan. Although we don't want to admit it, but the Japanese army in Shanxi was indeed defeated by the Eighth Route Army, if we don't even dare to meet them now, I'm afraid the army will be uneasy, and now it is just the Japanese army in Shanxi, the number of Japanese troops is millions, where is this? The Eighth Route Army would never dare to make any unfavorable moves against the commander at this time! ”

As soon as the words were finished. Immediately, someone retorted, "Zhang Guangbei, what you said is good." When something really happens, can you afford to take responsibility? ”

Zhang Guangbei shouted, "We don't even come out of Ji County, how can we go back to Taiyuan?" Aren't you afraid that the Eighth Route Army will occupy Taiyuan under the pretext that we are not going? ”

Hearing Taiyuan City, Yan Xishan immediately made up his mind and said, "Don't make any noise, I have already made a decision!" Send electricity to the Eighth Route Army, and we will arrive in Xiaoyi three days later. But this time we are not going to talk, but to condole! It is in the name of the Second Theater Command to send condolences to the 18th Army! ”

-- Filial piety

The gunfire that had been ringing in the city of Xiaoyi for half a month finally stopped, but this did not mean that it was over, and at this time, in the field of Xiaoyi-Fenyang, there were thousands of sappers who were carrying out a tail-sweeping work -- demining!

Mines are easy to bury. However, it is very difficult to clear mines, not only to test the skills of the engineers, but also to play a great role, because of the difficulty of mine clearance, even in later generations, there are many areas of minefields that cannot be solved, and in the later generations of the Sino-Vietnamese border, until the 21st century, there are often landmines that hurt people.

Although a map of the minefield was drawn before the minefields were laid, the workload for the sappers was still not small.

Yan Xishan and Xu Xiangqian were in a small car, followed by the two troops of the Eighth Route Army and the Jin Sui Army, Yan Xishan saw a team of the Eighth Route Army lined up on the side of the road, and asked, "Are you training?" Why don't you even have weapons? ”

Xu Qian glanced forward and said, "These are our sappers, they have just finished clearing a minefield, and now they are about to walk through the minefield three times hand in hand, this is also to reassure the people here." ”

Yan Xishan felt his legs and feet tingle when he heard this, and couldn't help asking, "Don't they know how dangerous this is?" If there are no mines that haven't been dug up, you'll have to die! ”

Xu Xiangqian smiled: "Those of us who use guns to make pavilions are afraid of danger, so what should the common people do?" Our military salaries and rations are all saved by the common people from between their teeth, Sir Yan, you said that if our people finally escaped from the devil's bayonet, but died at the hands of the mines we planted, then it would be unjust! Moreover, many of our soldiers are from Shanxi, and these are also doing things for their own families. ”

Yan Xishan couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and asked again, "I heard that you have mobilized a lot of ordinary people in this war?" Is there such a thing? ”

Xu Xiangqian nodded and said, "Yes, we have mobilized a large number of people to transport ammunition and supplies the wounded for us, and a large part of our fortifications are also built by the common people for us, of course, we will not let them do things in vain, and all those who do these things will be reduced or exempted in the future taxes." ”

Yan Xishan felt even more panicked when he heard this, how much of the people's hearts in Shanxi were in his Yan person.

At this time, Yan Xishan saw the city gate, because of the fierce battle, the city gate had been turned into ruins, where a group of reporters were waiting with cameras, Zhu Daizhen and Zuo Quan were standing in the middle.

Yan Xishan waited for the car to stop, and hurriedly got out of the car with Xu Xiangqian, Mr. Zhu stepped forward, saluted Yan Xishan and said, "Brother Baichuan, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Yan Xishan also replied, "You guys fought well this time, it's too glorious for our second war zone!" ”

Seeing the two saluting each other, the camera immediately kept shooting, and many reporters wanted to come forward, Zuo Quan hurriedly shouted, "Fellow journalists, our press conference will start soon, let's talk about any questions at that time, please come with me." ”

Yan Xishan asked, "What press conference?" ”

Mr. Zhu said with a smile: "Isn't this the war almost over, from Chongqing to various war zones to various patriotic organizations at home and abroad are constantly calling to inquire about the situation, I think that Brother Baichuan is also here today, so I am going to hold a press conference to announce the results of our battle this time." ”

Yan Xishan couldn't help but be interested when he heard this, and said, "Well, I'm also curious about what your brave and invincible Eighth Route Army has achieved." ”

-- The venue of the press conference

It is said to be a meeting place, but in fact it is just a cleared open space, with a makeshift platform made of ammunition boxes and sandbags, and it is surrounded by ruins.

Mr. Zhu stood on the stage, and the reporter's camera immediately flashed.

Mr. Zhu pressed his hand and said: "Fellow journalists, since January 1, 1939, our 18th Group Army has been the mainstay, supplemented by the Shanxi New Army and local guerrillas and fraternal units in various localities, and has launched a mighty general battle. ”

Everyone listened quietly, except for the rustle of pen and paper.

Yan Xishan also narrowed his eyes, wanting to find out the specific strength of the Eighth Route Army.

Mr. Zhu continued: "In these 48 days, the casualty figures of our army are more than 29,600 killed, more than 21,400 seriously wounded, 15,300 lightly wounded, and more than 300 missing, with a total of more than 66,000 casualties. Please observe a minute of silence for all present for three minutes, in order to pay tribute to the spirit of my soldiers in heaven. ”

After three minutes of silence, Mr. Zhu continued: "Under the heroic struggle of our soldiers, our army has conquered more than 1,900 strongholds and recovered 67 cities above the county level, among which Taiyuan, the capital of Shanxi, has once again returned to our hands, which is the first time since the start of the 77 Incident that we have recaptured the lost provincial capital!" This is the victory of all our fighters and the victory of our Chinese nation! ”

The applause was thunderous, and even Jin Suijun and others, who were reluctant to applaud, had to applaud.

Mr. Zhu continued: "In the 48 days of fighting, our army annihilated more than 87,400 Japanese troops, captured 136 Japanese soldiers, annihilated more than 22,400 puppet troops, captured more than 47,900 puppet soldiers, and annihilated Japanese troops including three major generals, eight Dazuo, 768 officers above the rank of lieutenant, and one Japanese soldier Dazuo was captured alive. ”

Thunderous applause!

Yan Xishan couldn't believe his ears, according to this number, the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army was no longer inferior to the Japanese army, so if he fought with the Eighth Route Army with real swords and guns, what would his ending be? (To be continued.) )
