Two days later, Liu Hanying sent people to the south of Bump Mountain and sent Yang Tinghui a carefully written official letter, accusing Yang of treachery and Li Wenbin of Chenbu County expelling government officials without authorization and setting up an armed force, which was a move to undermine unity and resist Japan. The confiscation of the property of the firm is an illegal act. At the same time, Yao Hulu, a traitor in Luo'an Prefecture who flaunted his might under the wing of the Japanese, also sent someone to send a letter to Yang Tinghui, which was naturally a threat, one was to ask Yang Tinghui to immediately remove and dispose of Li Wenbin and the mud-legged county magistrate surnamed Cui in Chenbu County, immediately welcome County Magistrate You back to power, and immediately return the confiscated property of the Chamber of Commerce - "Otherwise, Hugh blames Commander Yao, and I'm welcome." ”

These two letters caused controversy in the Bump Mountain guerrilla detachment and the special commission. When the meeting was held to study the method, Li Wenbin also participated. When Li Wenbin read the letter from Liu Hanying and Yao Hulu, he was furious, threw the letter on the ground, and stepped on it, saying: "The Kuomintang has deceived people too much, we have defeated the reactionary county magistrate, returned power to the people, and expanded the armed forces just to resist Japan, not to beat him Liu Hanying, what reason does he have to say that we sabotage the anti-Japanese resistance?" Look, he is in the same tone as a traitor, who is sabotaging the anti-Japanese resistance, isn't it obvious? ”

Jiang Gubei said: "I agree with Comrade Li Wenbin's viewpoint that we can ignore this matter. We cannot listen to the command of the Kuomintang and traitors. ”

After saying that, he slapped the table very vigorously.

Yang Tinghui said: "Everyone should be calm. Lao Dou, Lao Wang, Lao Zhang, what are your opinions? ”

Dou Yuquan was not in a hurry to speak, he knew that this issue was rather thorny, although it was only a problem in Chenbu County, but there were many policy issues involved here, and now was a period of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and various relations were relatively delicate. Cooperation is cooperation, but after all, it is not a family, and there is still a problem of proportionality in cooperation. The history of Bump Mountain is special, in the past, it was a family of officials and bandits, a family of soldiers and bandits, and now it is a country, a communist party, a bandit, and a pseudo, which is intricately intertwined. In addition, although he was also a cadre sent from the Jianghuai Military Region, he had reservations about the methods of Jiang Gubei and Li Wenbin, who were too idealistic and too radical, and it was simply whimsical to carry out that kind of vigorous agrarian revolution and to establish some kind of "Paris Commune on a bumpy mountain" under the premise of the unification of the whole nation in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. But what made Dou Yuquan embarrassed was that Yang Tinghui and Wang Lantian were not unaware of Jiang Gubei and Li Wenbin's approach, and not only acquiesced, but also supported it. He was a man who had suffered losses, he was almost killed during the Sichuan-Shaanxi Rebellion, and when he returned to the Jianghuai Military Region, he was in turn censored as a separatist of so-and-so. The ideals and goals of the revolution are lofty, but the process of implementation is treacherous, and on the issue of Chenbu County, it is not necessarily correct to hold an affirmative or negative attitude, and it is not an either/or.

Dou Yuquan thought hard for a long time, but still didn't say a word, and finally only said: "This matter is worth paying attention to, and it needs to be carefully studied." Let's have our opinions. ”

Dou Yuquan can talk about him left and right, but Wang Lantian can't, in such a meeting, if he remains silent, this silence itself is an attitude. Wang Lantian also thought for a while and said: "We can't ignore the attitude of Liu Hanying and Yao Hulu, because ignoring them may intensify the contradictions, especially Yao Hulu, if he focuses on the concave and convex mountains, he may ...... Militarily, probably...... ...... not good for us"

Before Wang Lantian's words were finished, Zhang Pujing immediately interrupted him: "What do you mean, Wang?" We are going to fight the enemy, can we still bow our heads in front of the traitors? ”

Wang Lantian said: "I don't mean that, I mean, we are not very strong now, and we can't provoke fire." ”

Speaking from the bottom of his heart, Dou Yuquan very much agrees with Wang Lantian's opinion; judging from the situation in Bump Mountain, the forces of all sides are accumulating energy to gather their wings and wait for the opportunity, and if because of the problem in Chenbu County, the enemy's attention is concentrated on the south of Bump Mountain, Liu Hanying himself has ill intentions, and once a war starts, he will inevitably stand by and watch, and this point of strength of the guerrilla detachment will be severely damaged, which is indeed not a wise move. But Dou Yuquan won't say this, he knows that Yang Tinghui is not a nerd, Yang Tinghui won't not understand the stakes, as long as he is not forced to a corner, there is no need for him to act as a bird.

Yang Tinghui finally spoke. Yang Tinghui said: "I support the work in Chenbu County, and Comrade Li Wenbin has made considerable efforts, and the situation has been carried out very well, especially in the armed construction, which has made great contributions. But now the situation has changed, some people have been touched, we have to have a strategy, and the hard cap is not good for us. I don't think that's the case, that county magistrate You, or let him be his county magistrate. The property of the Chamber of Commerce is confiscated, and a part of it can be returned to them. In this way, Yao Hulu can be temporarily stabilized. However, the vanguard of the Anti-Japanese War has been established and does not have to be abolished, we do not have to explain this, this is the need of the anti-Japanese resistance, everything is logical under the banner of anti-Japanese resistance, Liu Hanying, as the commissioner of the Special Administrative Office of Bump Mountain, he has no reason to oppose it, even if he has objections, he does not dare to put it on the table and say, I let him have a bitterness and can't say it. ”

Zhang Pujing said: "Why did we make so many concessions, was it because we were frightened by the enemy? We should insist that the water will cover the earth, and the soldiers will block it. We have our principles and cannot be compromised. ”

Yang Tinghui said: "Comrade, struggle is about strategy, and the most important strategy for us at the moment is to develop our armed forces. It is only when our armed forces are quite strong that it is possible to uphold the principle. If we blindly work hard and fight with the enemy to the death, it will destroy our strength. ”

Three decisions were made at this meeting, one was that Chenbu County returned to the team of the old regime You County Magistrate, returned part of the confiscated property of the Chenbu County Chamber of Commerce, and Yang Tinghui personally came forward to appease the You County Magistrate and a group of gentry. Second, the "Soviet" regime in Chenbu County temporarily went underground, and the equipment of the arsenal was sent to the guerrilla detachments. Third, on the basis of the backbone elements of the former vanguard of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Chenbu County Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Squadron was established, and it openly reported to the Kuomintang Bumpshan Administrative Office to apply for weapons, equipment, and military salaries -- as for whether it can be implemented, it is another matter.

Liu Hanying had two things that he didn't expect, the first was that Yang Tinghui and others would make such concessions, seeing that the red movement in Chenbu County, which was already booming, died down in a blink of an eye, according to his experience, the Communist Party is good at sparking the prairie fire, and pouring cold water on itself like this is not the character of the Communist Party - but the Communist Party of Bump Mountain is so unexpected. In this way, it will be difficult to let Yang Tinghui's troops see evil to Yao Hulu, and use Yao Hulu's hand to weaken Yang Tinghui's wishful thinking.

Liu Hanying's second surprise was that Yang Tinghui actually brazenly set up an anti-Japanese guerrilla squadron in Chenbu County, and pretended to rely on the Nationalist Government to report to him in order to fight for legality. Of course, Liu Hanying would not be willing to give this squadron military rations, but he also knew that whether he admitted it or not, the squadron of Tuba Road was irreversibly established, so what could he do if he didn't admit it? The team of the Eighth Route Army said that development would develop, and there was no need to ask for his recognition at all, and the reason why it was reported this time was to give him a face, and if he ignored it seriously, it would be shameless to give him a face.

After thinking about it, Liu Hanying finally decided to ask for this face, and sent a quartermaster to Chenbu County with a broken steel cannon and ten Hanyang Zhuang, and went to Chenbu County to read his edict, commending the anti-Japanese guerrilla squadron in Chenbu County to fight bravely to kill the enemy and serve the party and the state.
