"It's all like this, the national government only remembered to negotiate, isn't it too late!" Ghost Cannon said lazily. "It's nothing more than buying some time to prepare for the next big war, but in fact, it's all about selling dog meat on the head of a sheep and grinding your mouth!" Wu Fatzi threw a wrench on the leg of the ghost cannon, and the ghost cannon kicked him back as soon as he raised his foot. "Where are we going next?" Ghost Cannon asked. "Nine times out of ten, we are going to cover the troops crossing the river!" Wu Fatzi said. "His grandmother's, his own people and his own people are so energetic, isn't the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party very good? It's a pity that those party-state elites! "The ghost cannon looks worried about the country and the people!" Grass, I don't know, I still think that you kid is a member of the Central Committee, what are you talking about! Fat Wu glanced at the ghost cannon with contempt!

"My dear, do you think this peace talks will be successful? You said you wanted me to be the first batch of brides in New China, and people can't wait! Sima Hong's eyes were like silk, and she was lying on her bangs softly. Hehe" bangs stroked Sima Hong's hair, "I have never seen a Communist Party like you, and you lie on a man whenever you have time!" "What's wrong with the Communist Party? I'm still your wife! What's wrong with my man? Hey, what about you, I ask? Sima Hong said dissatisfiedly. I have seen enough, the People's Liberation Army has just wiped out a large number of elites of the national army at this time, dealt a heavy blow to the strength of the national army, and occupied half of the country. In this case, I am afraid that the conditions we put forward will not be acceptable to the Kuomintang! Bangs said with a frown.

At this time, in the name of the chairman of the CPC Central Committee, he issued a "Statement on the Current Situation", openly stating: "Although the Chinese People's Liberation Army has sufficient strength and sufficient reasons, it is indeed certain that it will completely destroy the remnants of the reactionary government of the Kuomintang in a short period of time; However, in order to end the war quickly, achieve real peace, and reduce the suffering of the people, the Chinese Communist Party is willing to enter into peace negotiations with the reactionary government of the Kuomintang in Nanking and any other local government and military group of the Kuomintang on the basis of the following conditions. These conditions are: first, the punishment of war criminals; second, the abolition of the pseudo-constitution; 3. Abolish the pseudo-legal system; Fourth, the reorganization of all reactionary armies in accordance with democratic principles; Fifth, the confiscation of bureaucratic capital; Sixth, reform the land system; 7. Abolish traitorous treaties; 8. Convene a political consultative conference without the participation of reactionary elements, establish a democratic coalition government, and take over all the powers of the reactionary government of the Kuomintang in Nanking and the governments at all levels under it. Faced with such conditions, the Kuomintang authorities simply had no way to accept them.

Compared with the Communist Party, the situation on the Kuomintang side was more complicated: Chiang Kai-shek also clearly realized the inevitability of his defeat after the three major battles, and at this time the Americans led by Situ Leiden proposed a method of dividing the river and ruling the country, and won the support of the Kuomintang Gui faction, but Chiang Kai-shek resolutely opposed the division of the river and the rule, so that it became a means of peace talks, forcing Chiang Kai-shek was the premise, and the goal of dividing the river and ruling the river. Chiang Kai-shek was forced to announce his resignation, Li Zongren of the Gui department was elected as the new president of the Republic of China, for the so-called division of the river, Li Zongren planned to release Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng, but Zhang Xueliang had been transferred to Taiwan, and Li Zongren did not know where Yang Hucheng was detained, and Chiang Kai-shek, who was in power, did not speak, and Li Zongren's warrant was a piece of waste paper! Soon, the Americans found that the Gui family who supported them could not be the master at all, and gradually lost interest in rowing the river and ruling the river. Li Zongren telegraphed* to agree to the eight conditions of the Communist Party, but all the cabinet members obeyed Chiang Kai-shek's orders, and Li Zongren, who was alone, had no way to negotiate peace.

Under Chiang Kai-shek's control, the negotiators refused to sign the agreement, and then* jointly issued the "Order to March to the Whole Country" under the joint name of Zhu De, chairman of the CPC Central Committee and commander-in-chief of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, ordering the People's Liberation Army to march bravely, resolutely, thoroughly, cleanly, and completely annihilate all Kuomintang reactionaries who dare to resist in China, liberate the people of the whole country, and defend the independence and integrity of China's territorial sovereignty. With the issuance of this order, the failure of the KMT-CCP negotiations was announced!

After the negotiations broke down, he still held the military and political power as the president of the Kuomintang and actively expanded his armaments and warfare. The Beijing-Shanghai Garrison General Headquarters was expanded into the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou Garrison Headquarters, and Tang Enbo was appointed commander-in-chief to take unified command of the military forces in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui provinces and the eastern part of Jiangxi Province. The Kuomintang army deployed a total of 115 divisions of about 700,000 troops along the 1,800-kilometer Yangtze River between Yichang and Shanghai. Among them, about 450,000 people from the 75 divisions of the Tang Enbo Group are deployed on the 800-kilometer section between Hukou and Shanghai in Jiangxi Province; The 40 divisions of the Bai Chongxi Group, with about 250,000 people, were deployed on a nearly 1,000-kilometer stretch between Hukou and Yichang. At the same time, the Second Fleet of the Navy's Coastal Defense and the First Fleet of the Yangtze River Defense have 26 warships and 56 gunboats stationed on the Yangtze River in Anqing, Wuhu, Zhenjiang, and Shanghai, and more than 40 ships of the main force of the Jiangphong Fleet are stationed on the rivers in Yichang, Hankou, Jiujiang, and other places, cruising along the rivers. More than 300 planes from the four air force groups were stationed in Wuhan, Nanjing, Shanghai, and other places to support the army's operations.

"It's fucking falling apart again, it's been like this for four or five years, it's been four or nine years, it's still fucking like this, it's a shit to talk about it, and it's going to start directly!" The ghost cannon grumbled, "Come on, come on, get ready for the guy, let's do it!" "Creation makes people, in the past, the national army was arrogant and condescending! Now it's all upside down, think about it, you heard that we put forward those eight articles, that is, to replace me with Chairman Jiang, I won't do anything! Fat Wu also muttered. Come on, come on, there's still going to be a war, what the fuck is going to be a head! Ghost Cannon said helplessly. What are you talking about, bangs came over at this time. "What else can we talk about, talk about the peace talks between the Kuomintang and the Republic, but now that the talks have collapsed, we have to continue fighting! But it's okay, let's talk about Chairman Jiang! Ghost Cannon said. Negotiations are only a means, for us it is to buy time to recuperate, and for the KMT, it is to achieve their respective goals. In my opinion, Chairman Chiang is still a man, if he really agrees to our conditions and rules by dividing the river, then our China will become the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and by that time, Li Zongren's Gui family will really become national sinners! So, although we don't want to fight a civil war, it's better to fight than not to fight at this time! Bangs clapped his hands and put away the stationing hoe of a cannon. Commander, Mr. Chen asked you to go to a meeting! Sima Hong came over and said. Meeting? I'm afraid I'm going to prepare for war! Liu Hai thought for a while, "Ghost cannon, Wu Fatzi, the whole division is ready for battle, ready to open at any time, and Liu Xiaoshan, set off when I come back!" ”

When Liu Hai arrived at the meeting place, all the senior commanders of the entire Huaye were all there, all of them were at the commander level, and it was really rare to see a division commander like Liu Hai, as before, Liu Hai still found an inconspicuous place to sit down. Mr. Chen stood up and looked at the large group of officers below, "Comrades, our negotiations with the Kuomintang have failed, and the chairman has also issued an order to march to the whole country, launch a battle to cross the river, and liberate the whole of China!" Our East China Field Army is responsible for the task of crossing the river for 300 kilometers. After a few days and nights of planning, now announce the sections of the various units to cross the river, for all kinds of preparations for crossing the river, all units must be fully prepared, okay, now I will announce the areas of each unit to cross the river" After Mr. Chen finished speaking, the staff officer next to him immediately began to read through the battle arrangements, and it took more than half an hour to read the operational arrangements for the river crossing campaign!

After the meeting ended, Mr. Chen met Liu Hai alone. "Division Commander Liu, your old troops, and the old commander have all been solved in the Huaihai Campaign, you should have no worries, shouldn't you put aside your worries and devote yourself wholeheartedly to the battle to liberate the whole of China!" Mr. Chen said happily. "I've also thought about this, I didn't want to fight a civil war, because I was afraid that my shells would hit my former comrades-in-arms, and now all the previous troops have been wiped out, and those who surrendered surrendered, I don't have any scruples! As for those chaotic and miscellaneous Kuomintang troops and those people in the Gui faction, through this peace talks, I am also very disgusted, and those who want to rely on the Americans to divide the river and split China must be cut down and eradicated! Boss, in fact, when I came, I was already ready to ask you for war, and now the situation is different from before, if we fail to cross the river, it is very likely that the Kuomintang separatists will achieve the goal of dividing the river and ruling the country, which is absolutely intolerable. Please ask Mr. Chen to issue a combat mission, and all the officers and men of my Fourth Division will definitely not let you down! ”

"Hahaha!" Mr. Chen patted his bangs happily, "Heroes see the same!" Chairman Mao of the Party Central Committee also saw through this, and ordered to make preparations for the battle of crossing the Yangtze River as quickly as possible, and strive to break through the defense line of the Yangtze River in one go, so that those guys who are bent on rowing the river and ruling the country will die! We've been preparing for this for a long time, and we're ready to do it now. Our plan was to block the Yangtze River shipping route before crossing the Yangtze River, and not only you, but also the artillery regiments of the Special Forces Column of the Third Field Army designated some artillery units to carry out the task of blockading the Yangtze River, and ordered that if a foreign warship was discovered, it would give a warning first, and if it did not heed the warning, it could open fire. We can't let the Kuomintang use the Yangtze River to send troops and generals to oppose us! The task I gave you was to carry out a blockade mission on the Qiwei Port River south of Taixing, Jiangsu, understand? "Ensure the completion of the task, and never let the other party appear on the Yangtze River!" Bangs stand up and salute!

What Liu Hai didn't expect was that he caused a sensation all over the world with a cannonball in Taixing, Jiangsu.
