“…… On October 24, 1935, the earth-shattering news came from the front lines of East Punjab, and the working masses of the world gazed in disbelief and anxiety at the battlefields of the South Asian subcontinent, anxious for the world revolution and for the future of all mankind, and for their own future happiness. It will all depend on whether the young People's Republic of India can survive the frantic assault of the Chinese imperialist army on the front and pounce on Delhi.

These days, the hundreds of thousands of troops of the so-called 'Xue Yue Cluster' of the Chinese army that have broken through from the direction of Kashmir have been rolling in and seem to be unstoppable, and the Guards Army, commanded by General Pavlov, who has high hopes from the Indian party and the whole country, has repeatedly failed to live up to our trust and suffered a complete defeat in the Battle of Amritsar! Blyukher, and now Pavlov, these Soviet revolutionaries who had made a certain contribution to the Indian revolution, began to make mistakes one after another in the second half of 1935. It is clear that the experience of the Soviet revolution in their possession is no longer suitable for the realities of the Indian revolution. If we in India want to defeat the Chinese aggressors and become an important leading force in the world revolution, we must embark on a path that suits India's national conditions, a path of our own, otherwise the fruits of the victory of the Indian revolution will very likely be lost.

Fortunately, at this critical juncture, our great leader, Comrade Lu Yi, once again stepped forward to shoulder the heavy burden of leading the people of India to explore the revolutionary road and expel the Chinese aggressors, combined the universal truth of Marxism with the practice of the Indian revolution, and put forward Lu Yi Thought, which will ultimately lead us to great victory. Such a result is probably unexpected by Chang Ruiqing, Mao ZD, Peng D Huai and others, right? -- The above remarks are excerpted from Comrade Charia's memoirs "Written Before the Second World Revolution" (also known as "The Beginning of the Failed World Revolution").

Delhi. Palace of the Republic.

In just a day or two, Lu Yi's old state was suddenly revealed.

In the past, the great leader of India had a straight body and a loud voice. The conversation and laughter were all great people, even the news of the 'Xue Yue cluster' breaking into the Punjab Plain did not make him lose his leadership demeanor. But with the Battle of Amritsar, after the news of the disastrous defeat of the Indian Army's Guards Cluster, Lu Yi, who had been trying his best to maintain decency, suddenly aged a lot.

The sky of the GCD people in India seems to be about to collapse overnight!

Everyone knows that the Guards Army of the Indian Red Army is the essence of the entire Indian Red Army and is the pro-guard force of the Central Committee of the Indian GCD. It is a symbol of the invincibility of the Indian GCD and the Indian Revolution. Such an elite was actually under a fierce attack by more than 100,000 Chinese troops who penetrated deep into the eastern Punjab state of India and were in the absence of rear operations. The whole line collapsed!

Even from October 23, when the vanguard of the Indian Guards Army engaged in an exchange of fire with the alert units of the Chinese army's "Xue Yue Cluster", the high-profile Battle of Amritsar lasted less than 40 hours. Although Pavlov had done everything he could, urging his subordinates to resist desperately, and even went to the front line. Boost morale in the midst of a hail of bullets. supervised the operation, and sent him to personally pick up his rifle and go up to fight with the Chinese army. However, the result was that the three lines of defense were lost one after another in less than 12 hours, more than 100,000 Red Army officers and soldiers were completely defeated, more than 70,000 casualties were missing, and only half of the remnants of the army retreated to Lahore, where the city was strong.

In Pavlov's urgent telegram to Ruy, the Central Committee of the Indian GCD immediately made a decision to abandon Delhi. Abandon the Northeast Indian War and retreat to the southern part of the Indian Peninsula. The situation of this great war of resistance of the Indian people. It can only be described as rotten......

Where does Lu Yi have any mind to consider now? He has regretted countless times in his heart now that he used a bullshit article to oust the chairman of the revisionist party in the first place. He also wanted to act as cannon fodder for the Soviet Union, and originally hoped to rely on the assistance of the Soviet Union to sit on the top spot of the Asian revolution, so that those Indian cannon fodder could be regarded as well-deserved, but they provoked Chinese imperialism and really sent a large army to conquest, and the Chinese imperialist army was still so capable of fighting, I don't know how much stronger than Britain and the United States! I really don't know how Blyukhel fooled the Chinese expeditionary force away in the first place?

Just when he was infinitely remorseful, he saw his henchman Sun Daraya sweating profusely, striding in, and bowing to Lu Yi with an uneasy expression: "Chairman...... The General Office of the CPC Central Committee has been put in order, and its personnel have been organized into a central column, which can be driven out of the city at any time, and Comrade Carya has already personally led a group army unit to board the train bound for Delhi in Patna, which will reach Delhi in two days at the latest, or it can retreat directly to southern India by Guò railway......"

Lu Yi looked at him: "How is the situation in Delhi City?" Are there any signs that the counter-revolutionaries are going to take advantage of the opportunistic activities? ”

Sundaraya shook his head: "The news of the imperialist invasion of the Kashmir Valley has not yet been made public, and there are rumors in Delhi about this, but the comrades of the Delhi Municipal Party Committee have dealt with it in a timely manner, and anyone who dares to spread the news that the Chinese army has captured Kashmir will be arrested immediately." Therefore, all of them were relatively calm, and there was no sign of rampant activities of the counter-revolutionaries. But...... The Chinese army is approaching Delhi, and now the forward has entered Haryana. ”

Hearing Sun Daraya's words, Lu Yi breathed a sigh of relief, no matter how fast the Chinese army was, it was impossible to hit the city of Delhi in two days. By that time, Chalia had already arrived with an army group, and it would be able to resist it no matter what, enough to cover the transfer of the central organs. Now the biggest concern is precisely that there is a problem in the city of Delhi, if the news of the approaching squadron spreads, who knows how the citizens of Delhi will react? At this critical juncture for the transfer of the central government of India and the central government of India and the central government of India and G, there is a huge amount of supplies, weapons and ammunition reserves in Delhi that need to be transferred. In addition, the Delhi garrison is also limited, except for a central guard division, which is more than 100,000 workers' Red Guards, and those members of the workers' Red Guards are also Delhi citizens, in case of chaos, who knows which side they are on?

Lu Yi nodded with satisfaction, and before he could give new instructions, he saw an old man in a Soviet military uniform rushing in outside the door, it was Borodin, the Soviet general adviser in India. After Pavlov led his troops out on the march. He temporarily assumed the post of Chief of the General Staff of the Red Army.

Borodin's face was full of gloom, and it seemed that there was still no good news from the front. "Comrade Lu Yi, why hasn't the order been given to defend Delhi yet? Why block the news that the enemy is approaching Delhi? And let people all over the city to check what rumors...... The enemy will reach the city of Delhi in three or four days at most. How long can we hide? ”

Yes, the army of Chinese imperialism is marching towards Delhi, all the way unimpeded, and it seems that it is about to enter the city. Not only is the news of the imperialist approach to Delhi not known, but even the news that Kashmir was occupied by the squadron is a rumor, and whoever dares to say it is the current counter-revolution! Moreover, the GCD-led newspapers in Delhi took great pains to inform the Indian people on a daily basis about the fighting on the Kashmir front. It was also the news that the Indian Red Army had inflicted heavy losses on the enemy and annihilated the enemy. Even a GC fighter like Borodin, who is good at telling lies, finds it a little incredible.

Borodin's questioning words were heard. Lu Yi was a little impatient, and wanted to get angry, but in the end he sighed and softened his tone.

"Comrade Borodin. We are also thinking about the overall situation of India's war against China! Then the elite Guards Army retreated after only half a day, what else can the Red Guards and the Central Guard Division in Delhi do? Abandoning the city and preserving strength is already an inevitable choice! And we can't go to the south of India empty-handed...... Delhi is lost. Our ties with the Soviet Union were completely severed. I am afraid that the supply of weapons and ammunition in the future will be very difficult, and the weapons reserves in Delhi, including the guns and ammunition that have been issued to the workers' Red Guards, may be the capital to maintain the anti-war situation after we arrive in the south, and we must all be transported away. In addition, India's production areas have always been in the north, and the Punjab, Bengal and the Ganges Valley are our main food producing areas. There has always been a shortage of grain in the south, and this year's harvest is even worse, so the grain reserves in Delhi must also be transported away...... Comrade Borodin, you said that so many supplies had to be transported. Can there be no good order? ”

Borodin was dumbfounded, his mouth wide open, not knowing what to say. Delhi is very difficult to hold. It is also true that important materials, personnel, and institutions need to be transferred. However, Delhi is approaching the capital of the People's Republic of India, and the symbolism of the city in terms of politics cannot be overstated, and the consequences of its loss are really unimaginable, and it is very likely that some of the Indian people who were in a state of wait-and-see will fall to the side of the counter-revolutionary camp. It will also deal a heavy blow to the morale of the more than 2 million officers and men of India's northeastern and northwestern fronts, which are still holding out resistance. So it's good to delay one more day too! But now that Lu Yi is the boss of the Indian GCD, he has made up his mind to give up Delhi and escape, what else can he, a Soviet adviser, say? Things have come to this point, and in the final analysis, it is still the bad things of Blyukherr and Pavlov, who are also advisers to the Soviet Union? The former suffered three consecutive defeats in the northeast battlefield, losing hundreds of thousands of troops and losing almost the entire state of Bengal, so that the Indian Red Army Command hurriedly transferred troops from the northwest battlefield to reinforce the northeast battlefield. The result gave the Chinese the opportunity to raid Kashmir. The latter, on the other hand, buried the most elite units of the Indian Red Army (not yet wiped out) under the city of Amritsar. Even Lu Yi and the guts of the entire Yin G center were frightened, what else could they say now?

After thinking for a long time, Borodin only sighed and said loudly: "Comrade Lu Yi, just now the General Staff received a request from the Northeast Front Command, asking us if we want to continue the battle in Bengal?" Or give up the battle and withdraw troops to Bihar, Kalkhand, and Uttar Pradesh? ”

Lu Yi's eyebrows tightened: "Can Bihar, Garkhand, and Uttar Pradesh hold on?" Also, will the troops in Kolkata and Dhaka still be able to break through? ”

Borodin looked at Lu Yi's panicked appearance, and knew that the other party was in a mess. He sighed and waved his hand: "My Comrade Lu Yi, the overall situation has not yet deteriorated to the point of being out of control, India is a very large country, with a population of more than 300 million, and it is not something that Chinese can swallow in one bite." In fact, it is likely that they have no plans to occupy the entire territory of India. Because even if they could occupy it, they would not be able to rule -- after 10 years of India's revolutionary war, the Indian people had already woken up to the fact that they would not be willing to let India become a colony again. I reckon. The Chinese' strategic goal in India is likely to be simply to divide India, splitting the India's M-Slings and Sikh settlements into two or three puppet states controlled by China. So the Indian states of Bihar, Karkhand, and Uttar Pradesh are definitely defendable. As for the troops in Kolkata and Dhaka, it may be difficult for them to break out of the encirclement, and they should not choose to break through. Rather, we must fight to the end in Kolkata and Dhaka to contain the main forces of the Chinese and buy time for us to adjust our deployment. ”

Lu Yi nodded, and his face looked slightly better: "Yes, Comrade Borodin, your analysis is very reasonable, the Chinese cannot swallow the whole of India." The people of India will not agree either! He paused, looked at Borodin and said, "Immediately send an order to let the Northeast Front abandon the Battle of Bengal." The whole army was withdrawn to Bihar, Karkhand, and Uttar Pradesh, and the troops were renamed the Northern Front...... The defenders of Kolkata and Dhaka were ordered to hold out until the last man was shot. The Sindh-Beloch Army Group was ordered to move immediately to the territory of Rajasthan, and immediately after the transfer was completed, it was merged with the 19th Army under the command of Comrade Chariya and renamed the Central Front. Responsible for the defense of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat. The commander is Comrade Padmanaban, and the political committee member is Comrade Carya. Also, arrest Jaswant immediately. Singh! ”

"Arrest Jasvent. Singh? Why? ”

"Because he is a traitor and traitor in India, a spy who has been bribed by Chinese imperialism, he is the one who put the Chinese invading army that is now marching towards Delhi!"

"Chairman...... So who should lead the Northwest? ”

"Let Pavlov take over, and tell him to immediately leave Lahore with his troops and go to Kabul to join forces with the North-Western Front."

Borodin nodded, gave Ruy a military salute and walked out, stopping at the door again. Looking back at Lu Yi: "Comrade President, do you really want to give up here in Delhi immediately?" ”

"Give up! Give up after three days. The Central is going to be transferred to Bangalore, and the General Staff is going there. Comrade Borodin, you should also go back and make arrangements. ”

……

Haryana, India, Narwana.

It turned out that the neat and beautiful British-style three-story building where the Narvana County Party Committee was located had already raised the blue sky and white sky and red flags flying high at this time.

This small county town in the plains has only one decent street called Luyi Street. At this time, on this street, named after the great leader of India, only large groups of Chinese troops marched, and 155mm and 105mm howitzers dragged by trucks or mules and horses rumbled through the streets. Due to the capture of a lot of heavy weapons and baggage supplies of the Indian Guards Army in the Battle of Amritsar, and the integration of many red-headed Ah San into the ranks, Xue Yue ordered that all vehicles and horses be used to transport supplies and heavy equipment. All the officers and men marched on foot, and because of the hot weather, everyone from the officers to the soldiers was sweating profusely, but they did not slow down in the slightest. The earthy procession stretched from one end of the city to the other, as if there was no end.

The entire city of Narwana also seems to be left with only Chinese officers and soldiers on the march, and the Indian residents are gone. It has always been a Hindu settlement, and the turned-over Shudras and turned-dartli here are still very supportive of the Indian GCD. Therefore, when the Chinese army came, the militia in the city of Narwana resisted for a while under the leadership of the local GCD committee, and after the city was broken, the Sikh puppet army that followed the Chinese army and the He soldiers in the 10th army relaxed a little...... It was not until the follow-up 1st Airborne Division came in that order was restored. However, the Indian people here also knew that it was powerful, and they all hid in their homes and closed the door and did not dare to come out.

Admiral Xue Yue, who was also wearing a faded camouflage training uniform at this time, stood on a high ground next to the main road outside the city. Holding a telescope and looking to the west, there were several staff officers of the cluster headquarters beside him, and Lieutenant General Chen Changjie was also with him, holding a stack of telegrams in his hand and reporting while reading: "Commander, the situation in Delhi is a little strange. ”

"Oh, what's the strange law?" Xue Yue asked lightly: "Is it that the whole people are mobilized to fight a people's war with us?" ”

Chen Changjie shook his head: "It's not ...... The Front's telegram said that the Indian GCD is still blocking the news of our invasion of the heart of India, and the newspapers in Delhi are still taking the liberty of reporting the situation on the Kashmir front on a daily basis...... Their All-India Anti-Counter-Insurgency Committee is still arresting counter-revolutionary rumor-mongers everywhere, and anyone who dares to say that Kashmir has fallen or that we have invaded the Punjab and Haryana will be severely punished for counter-revolutionary crimes. ”

Xue Yue was stunned and stunned, put down the binoculars, stretched out his hand to take the telegram, read it carefully, shook his head and wondered: "What is this for?" Playing the Empty City Scheme? They don't firmly admit that we have entered India...... And how is the arming of Delhi going? If we don't arm, won't we easily enter Delhi in a few days? What does this Lu Yi want to do? ”

Chen Changjie shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands: "Who knows?" Brother Boling, what should we do? ”

Xue Yue sneered: "What to do?" I'm not Sima Yi, he dares to sing about the empty city plan, I dare to go into the city to arrest him! The order went down and told the brothers to speed up their pace and strive to reach Delhi within 3 days and catch them by surprise! ”
