Chapter 246

Two days later, Zhu Lunguo, acting secretary of the Central Plains Bureau of the Communist Party of China, arrived in Yanke.

However, what Zhu Lunguo unexpectedly was that within these two days, the situation in Longkou had undergone earth-shaking changes. First, Gao Shenxing, the brigade commander of the 19th Detachment of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui, beat Liu Chang in the headquarters and put Liu Chang in prison without conclusive evidence.

When the news spread, Yu Bu, a member of the Longkou Anti-Japanese Democratic Government, was immediately infuriated.

Because before, the Intelligence Department had already taken the trial of Communist Party members for no reason. Several CCPs in the democratic government were inexplicably detained for several days. The Longkou County Committee of the Communist Party of China suspected that someone was deliberately attacking the Communist Party, so it decisively mobilized the masses to surround the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army Headquarters in the Southern Anhui Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, and asked Xu Shijiu to give an explanation.

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Shu Tongwen rushed from Yanke to Longkou County, stabilized the party members who were leading the trouble, and repeatedly explained to Xu Shijiu and others, and the situation eased.

However, at this moment, another unexpected thing happened. Li Zihan, the commander of the First Regiment of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui suddenly issued an order to arrest Yu Bu, a member of the Communist Party of China's 1st Regiment. After the news spread, it immediately caused an uproar within the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui.

It is very coincidental that the instructor of the 1st Battalion had a very good relationship with Peng Wu. When he learned that his good brother had been arrested by Li Zihan, Peng Wu did not think too much and decisively took the cavalry battalion to the base of the 1st Battalion, trying to force He Changzhu to release the people. As a result, the confrontation between the 1st Battalion and the cavalry battalion and almost broke the gun.

This confrontation seriously affected the cooperation between the Communist Party and the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui. Although the situation was finally calmed down, Xu Shijiu obviously no longer had the unconditional trust in the Communist Party as before. He dispatched various regiments and various battalions to the headquarters by Xu Shijiu. Peng Wu, the commander of the cavalry battalion, was dismissed from the battalion commander and was directly transferred from the battalion commander to the squad leader.

Almost overnight, the relationship between the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui quickly changed from close to cold, and the situation in southern Anhui suddenly became complicated.

"Comrade Tongwen, what's going on in Longkou's incident?" Zhu Lunguo sat down and asked Shu Tongwen.

"Secretary Zhu, this issue is a bit complicated." Shu Tongwen really didn't know what to say, because this could never be explained clearly in a few words. Fundamentally, this was actually a common outbreak of ideological confrontation between two factions within the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui, and Xu Shijiu's ambiguous political stance was involved.

"Is the problem very complicated?" Zhu Lunguo frowned and said slowly, "Then just peel the cocoon and say it one by one."

Shu Tongwen nodded and started with Xu Shijiu bringing more than 100 disabled soldiers to Shanghai, trying every means to raise funds to treat the injured, and pointed out that Xu Shijiu had an unexpected relationship with the 19th Route Army. For Xu Shijiu, the 19th Route Army was his home.

"I understand." Zhu Lunguo nodded and said, "You mean, Xu Shijiu's position has been shaken?"

"Yes, his position has been obviously shaken." Shu Tongwen said bitterly, "Since Gu Zhutong released the news and threatened to restore the 19th Army, Xu Shijiu's attitude has become ambiguous. Otherwise, Longkou would never have caused the previous uproar."

"I'll just say that with Xu Shijiu's courage, how could such a mess be caused?" Hu Zhijing, secretary of the Anhui Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, was relieved and said, "It turned out that Xu Shijiu was shaken, so he indulged Li Zihan to take action to test our bottom line."

Zhu Lunguo's expression became severe and he said in a deep voice: "In other words, once Gu Zhutong really restores the 19th Army system and appoints Xu Shijiu as the commander of the 19th Army, then Xu Shijiu will really be able to attack Yu's member of the Communist Party of China within the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui. Am I right?"

"That won't be, at most it's expulsion." Shu Tongwen said hurriedly.

"It's not okay to expel it." Zhu Lunguo slapped the table with a slammed palm and said in a deep voice, "Our Communist Party is not a long-term worker of the feudal family. You should use your time to call it, and you will sway it when you don't want it."

Shu Tongwen didn't know what to say. In fact, since he heard from Li Zihan that day that Gu Zhutong was going to restore the 19th bomb system, he knew that the situation would become complicated. But he didn't expect that the situation would take a sharp turn in such a short time, and almost all had to the point of pacifying the party.

Gao Shenxing looked at Xu Shijiu with a complicated expression and asked in a deep voice: "Old Xu, do you also want to follow Wang Jingwei and Chairman Jiang, and also clarify the party movement in the anti-Japanese and national salvation army in southern Anhui?"

Xu Shijiu frowned and said, "Old Gao, what are you talking nonsense? What are you pacifying the party?"

"Okay, since you don't plan to figure out the party, why not let the political commissars of each regiment, instructors of each battalion, and instructors of each company return to the army?" Gao Shenxing said.

"Isn't this let them concentrate on learning the international situation? They are the Ministry of Political Work. If they don't understand the international situation, how can they do a good job in political and ideological work?" Xu Shijiu said, "When they finish learning the international situation, I will naturally let them back to the army. Can I really keep them in lockdown?"

"Don't do this, what a shit international situation, isn't it just a matter of just one sentence? The Americans passed the Concession Act and were about to attack the Japanese. Can there be anything else besides this?" Gao Shenxing said, "Don't be careless with me. Tell me honestly, you really plan to return to the army sequence?"

Xu Shijiu was silent, just looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, without making any noise for a long time.

"Old Xu, you are usually very smart, why did you become so stupid this time?" Gao Shenxing said, "You believe it when Gu Zhutong said he was preparing to restore the 19th Army system? You didn't think that this might be just Gu Zhutong's bait. The purpose is to destroy the cooperative relationship between you and the Communist Party. You didn't think that if you have a quarrel with the Communist Party, he will break his promise and regret it?"

"Old Gao, what if Gu Zhutong's words are true?" Xu Shijiu said quietly without looking back.

Gao Shenxing closed his mouth. He stared at Xu Shijiu a few steps away, and suddenly felt a little unfamiliar with him. In the past, even though Xu Shijiu suddenly turned against the enemy last time, Gao Shenxing had never felt unfamiliar with Xu Shijiu. He felt that Xu Shijiu was Xu Shijiu, the one he knew and familiar with, was not only a traitor, but also the one he knew and familiar with.

But today, Xu Shijiu was standing there with his arms folded, just a few steps away, but Gao Shenxing clearly felt that there seemed to be an insurmountable gap between the two.

Zhu Lunguo asked Shu Tongwen again: "So, what happened to Liu Chang, the initiator of this incident?"

"Secretary Zhu, Liu Chang's problem is also very complicated." Shu Tongwen said, "Liu Chang had a strange performance in the Battle of Hulu Valley last year and this year's Spring Festival offensive. The key is that Liu Chang had been arrested and imprisoned during his time in charge of the underground party work in Qingyang County two years ago."

Zhu Lun National Highway: "So, is there any direct proof that Liu Chang has turned against him?"

"No." Shu Tongwen smiled bitterly and shook his head. If there was conclusive evidence, it would not have caused this incident.

"Since there is no evidence, we cannot randomly suspect our comrades." Zhu Lun's national hand waved his wave and said seriously, "However, given the conflict between Comrade Liu Chang, Comrade Gao Shenxing and Xu Shijiu, he is no longer suitable to stay in Longkou County to work. He should be transferred back to the Southern Anhui Detachment first, which happens to be the organization to make other arrangements for his work."

Shu Tongwen said: "The problem is that Liu Chang is still locked in Longkou prison now."

Zhu Lun National Highway: "I will negotiate with Xu Shijiu for this matter and let him release him."

Hu Zhijing said: "Secretary Zhu, there has been such a big change this time, Xu Shijiu may not be willing to come to Yanke. At least I think it is impossible for him to come here in the near future."

Zhu Lun National Highway: "Then go to the junction of the two counties to discuss, or go directly to Longkou County. Xu Shijiu wouldn't have refused to meet me because of this incident. Or would he lock me up after meeting me?"

"That won't." Shu Tongwen hurriedly said, "Our captain is not like this."

"Then it's decided, so it's up to Comrade Tongwen to arrange this matter."
