In a telegram to Luo Ronghuan, Liu Yimin pointed out that our main force is currently returning to the mountainous areas of southeast Shandong and central Shandong, with the purpose of restoring the Shandong base as soon as possible, and our army also has the strength to achieve this goal. However, if we do not fight a major annihilation war in the near future, we should quickly order each person.
The troops carried out a wide range of cold guns and cold artillery campaigns based on regiments and battalions, forcing the Japanese back to the railway line and completely restored the mountainous base in central and southern Shandong. At the same time, each unit shall not attack Jiaoji Road and Longhai Road, so that the Japanese can concentrate their forces to
The railway is built and opened to traffic. The logistics department can calm down and develop military industry and people's livelihood enterprises. The training headquarters must resume normal training. All types of training classes organized by the Anti-Japanese First Branch and various departments of the Shandong Bureau must resume. In the future, we will
The Japanese army will not be allowed to invade our central base again.
In the telegram to Liu Jianshe, Liu Yimin emphasized that he should seize the opportunity to fight, attract the attention of the Japanese, make the fake play real, and then teach the Second Brigade, the Shandong-Western Security Brigade, and the Shandong-Southwest Security Brigade should quickly return to Shandong-Southwest and Shandong-Southwest.
The Second Education Brigade is responsible for the restoration of the bases in western Shandong and southwestern Shandong. Especially the bases in western Shandong are our army's granaries. They have a good mass base and should be restored first. However, under normal circumstances, they do not fight large-scale annihilation wars, and widely carry out cold guns and cold guns.
The artillery movement trapped the Japanese army in major counties and transportation lines. In the short term, the Japanese could not notice that our main force returned to Shandong, so as to continue to carry out large-scale heavy army encirclement and suppression on Shandong.
Regarding our army in Jiaodong, Liu Yimin said in a telegram to Zeng Zhongsheng that it is not the time to fight a large-scale annihilation war. In addition to leaving a part of our army in Jiaodong to insist on the mountainous areas and attract the Japanese army, the main force should quickly jump out and restore the Jiaolai and Qinghe bases, and teach the
The Third Brigade and the Eighth Brigade will also return to Qinghe and Jiaolai in the near future. In the short term, a situation in which the enemy occupied cities and transportation lines and I occupied the countryside will be formed in Shandong. Wait until the time comes, and the entire Shandong will be recovered in one fell swoop.
As for adhering to the Hebei-Shandong border, Taixi, and Western Shandong troops, Liu Yimin ordered them to actively act, but they should focus on small troops, cold guns and cold artillery, vigorously develop militias and county brigades and district brigades, and use tunnel warfare, mine warfare and
The Japanese fought and continued to confuse the Japanese, making them think that the local armed forces were fighting against them.
After sending the telegram, Liu Yimin thought about it carefully and felt that after the Japanese army was defeated in Central Su, he would probably think that the main force of the instructor had advanced westward to Anhui. According to the normal trajectory, the Japanese army would soon launch the battle of Wuhan. However, Dongjiuer Palace Nian
It is hard to say whether the Japanese army will do other actions when King Yan dies. In this way, the results of killing the Second Army Command have to be concealed. It is best to announce it when the Japanese army launches the Pacific War.
Luoma Lake was gradually formed in the late Ming Dynasty and is one of the four major freshwater lakes in Jiangsu Province. The water body is clear and transparent, and the lake has rich aquatic products. The most famous ones are silverfish, green shrimp, crabs, and lobsters. At this time, it was
In the hot summer, soldiers are shirtless, rowing boats near the lake to catch fish and shrimps. After washing, they can start a fire and improve their lives when it gets dark.
It doesn’t matter if the Japanese are flying, they can row the boat into the thick reed marsh in just a few strokes. The Japanese cannot discover the Eighth Route Army in the reed marsh.
The reason why Liu Yimin rushed from Gaogou Town to Zaohe Town on the shore of Luoma Lake was because he wanted to meet Gao Jingting, commander of the Fourth Detachment of the New Fourth Army, here.
After Hu Laohu led the cavalry brigade westward, he had already met Gao Jingting, and brought four radio stations to the fourth detachment and supplemented a batch of weapons, ammunition and medicines. After Gao Jingting's battle in Taierzhuang, Liu Yimin went to Xuzhou to meet Li Zongren.
, he had already contacted the instructor. Huang Wenhu once took Li Zongren's handwritten letter to Liao Lei, rescued most of the cadres and soldiers of the Guixi Guerrillas of the Red Army, and added to the Fourth Detachment. This time, the strength of the Fourth Detachment increased greatly.
With nearly 4,000 troops in central Anhui, eastern Anhui won a series of victories and gained a firm foothold.
Gao Jingting insisted on the armed struggle in the Dabie Mountains for a long time and lost contact with the party for a long time. After receiving two support from the Eighth Route Army teachers, Gao Jingting wanted to meet Liu Yimin and the supreme leader of our party and army in Shandong. Therefore, he passed the cavalry brigade.
The radio station reported to Liu Yimin and requested to report on his work.
The Fourth Detachment is now active in central Anhui, and going north to northern Anhui and then crossing the railway line to meet Liu Yimin. Liu Yimin originally didn't want Gao Jingting to take such a big risk, but when he thought about Gao Jingting's tragedy in history, he agreed to him.
The meeting place between the two parties is in Zaohe Town.
Liu Yimin waited in Luomahu for two days, and Gao Jingting finally arrived.
When Gao Jingting first entered Zaohe Town, he saw that the Japanese soldiers on the street were all guarding. He was shocked and thought he had touched the wrong place and entered the Japanese barracks. But he quickly eliminated his doubts because he was wearing an Eighth Route Army uniform.
Liu Yimin has come out.
Afar, Liu Yimin shouted: "Comrade Jingting!"
Gao Jingting was completely relieved when he shouted, so he hurriedly got off the saddle and stepped forward to greet Liu Yimin.
After meeting, the two returned to Liu Yimin's temporary residence and ordered the construction of Anlan Longwang Temple, which is what the local people call Qianlong Palace. Here, Liu Yimin used the famous silverfish, green shrimp, crab, lobster and wild ducks from Luoma Lake.
He entertained Gao Jingting and his party.
After dinner, Gao Jingting reported to Liu Yimin about the situation of insisting on the struggle in the Dabie Mountains and the situation of the war of resistance since entering central Anhui.
When Gao Jingting said that he disguised himself as the 25th Route Army of the Kuomintang pursuing and suppressing army, more than 300 people captured a battalion of the 32nd Division Joint Defense Team, and our army had no casualties or disguised the 25th Route Army, intercepted the 11th Route Army from Wuhan
When he received the silver dollars and supplies, Liu Yimin couldn't help laughing. Gao Jingting asked him what he laughed at. Liu Yimin smiled and said, "Starting from the occupation channel, we seized Yibin, occupied Leshan, and entered Chengdu during the Long March. Which time wasn't it a disguise of the national army?
?Heroes have similar views, but heroes have similar views!”
Gao Jingting couldn't help laughing, and wrinkles like knives were wrinkled on his thin face.
Then, Gao Jingting talked about the first battle of Jiangjiahe after entering central Anhui, and annihilated a small team of Japanese devils. He said that at that time, the Fourth Detachment was full of refugees and dispersed national troops. He felt that if he didn't fight a war, he would stop the small.
If the Japanese were in a crazy offensive momentum, the entire central Anhui area would become an occupied area of the Japanese army. So they decided to fight several battles. The first choice was Jiang Jiahe. After the end of this battle, by May and June, a series of battles were carried out, just bombing.
More than 100 Japanese cars were destroyed.
After listening to Gao Jingting's report, Liu Yimin pulled Gao Jingting for a walk and a heart-to-heart talk in the courtyard.
Gao Jingting was an old Red Army during the Huangma Uprising. His will was as strong as steel. His long-term persistence in the Dabie Mountains struggle developed his more arbitrary character. Liu Yimin joined the Red Army when he broke through the Xiangjiang River. His qualifications were much less than Gao Jingting. In theory,
Gao Jingting's personality cannot have such a pleasant conversation with such a young Liu Yimin, but things are so strange, and the two of them are really having a pleasant conversation.
Of course, Liu Yimin was not polite to Gao Jingting, and made severe criticism of his mistake of stimulating anti-counterfeiting in Dabie Mountains and killing comrades by mistake, saying that he did something that Chiang Kai-shek wanted to do but could not do, which hurt the hearts of his comrades.
It killed some comrades. Gao Jingting was so angry that he had no place to get angry, but he actually kicked the trees in the yard.
Liu Yimin asked about Dong Biwu's inspection at the Fourth Detachment, and Gao Jingting reported it carefully.
Liu Yimin lit a cigarette, threw it to Gao Jingting, and asked him to light it, and then he slowly said while walking: "Comrade Jingting, whether it is the Red Army, the Eighth Route Army, or the New Fourth Army, you must take care of every comrade's.
Life. I emphasized during the period of the 18th Red Army that the most precious wealth of our Red Army was not guns, ammunition, gold bars and silver dollars, but the lives of our cadres and soldiers. When the Red Seventh Army arrived, we established it after entering Shaanxi.
In the military court, whether a comrade made a mistake or what kind of punishment should be accepted for a mistake is decided by our military court. If a comrade who makes the mistake is not convinced by the judgment of the military court, he can also appeal to the central and headquarters.
The benefits are one to avoid manslaughter, and the other is to form a military legal system to use systems to restrain and motivate soldiers. The reason why our teachers have such a strong team today is closely related to this. Our army has not become a deserter, so why
What? Because even if he made a serious mistake, he could have the opportunity to appeal and justify. In our teachers, no one could use his power to shoot people at will. Of course, except for those who escaped at the last minute and defected to the enemy. I can tell you
From the 18th Red Regiment to the instructor, I have never shot a cadre and soldier!”
Gao Jingting said bitterly: "Teacher Liu, you don't know that the environment in Dabie Mountains is too harsh, and traitors may appear at any time. The harm of traitors is so great, so there is nothing I can do about it. It's not that I like to kill people.
”
Liu Yimin turned his head suddenly and looked directly at Gao Jingting: "This is not the fundamental reason for the expansion of anti-counterfeiting."
Gao Jingting shook his head: "Teacher Liu, I really have no other ideas. I am just afraid that others will be traitors."
Liu Yimin said: "Comrade Jingting, what you said may be the truth. But those who kill each other are their own comrades. Think about it, these comrades have put life and death aside since the day they became the Red Army, but they did not die.
But he died in his own hands. If you were replaced by you, would you say that death was worth it? Besides, the anti-counterfeiting was expanded and it was easy to kill comrades with different opinions. The Red Twenty-Eighth Army
Wouldn’t it become your boss’s one-man show? This is absolutely undesirable.”
Gao Jingting was speechless, with blue veins on his face jumping.
Liu Yimin lit another cigarette, took a few puffs, and said, "Comrade Jingting, revolution cannot be done by one person, and it requires thousands of people like us to work together. As the commander of the Fourth Detachment, I
I think your main task is just a few points. First, fight war, needless to say. Second, develop and strengthen our army, the faster the better. Third, create base areas and build base areas so that the people can consciously and voluntarily follow the Communist Party and the Eighth Route Army.
This is very important for the New Fourth Army to do it.”
Gao Jingting nodded and asked Liu Yimin to continue speaking.
Liu Yimin was naturally not polite, and then said: "From the situation you reported, the Red 28th Army insisted on the struggle between Hubei, Henan and Anhui and made immortal contributions. After establishing the Fourth Detachment of the New Fourth Army, it started the first anti-Japanese war in the New Fourth Army.
Guns are amazing. I will report these truthfully to the central government. Comrade Jingting, you participated in the revolution earlier than me and have more experience in fighting than me. However, I still have to remind you that you have to be strategies in your work and pay attention to unity.
Only by uniting comrades together can you do it. If you have any questions, you must report to the New Fourth Army Department in a timely manner and listen to the opinions of Secretary Xiang, Chief Ye and Comrade Chen Yi. If you have any differences in your strategic opinions, you must report to the Central Committee in a timely manner.
The Central Committee’s instructions really don’t work. If you can trust me, you can report to me. I will report to the Chairman in time and give you advice. In short, you should communicate more with Commander Ye and Secretary Xiang, and more with other troops.
Connect and learn from each other.”
After hearing this, Gao Jingting was a little moved and followed Liu Yimin to listen to him discussing the military situation.
Liu Yimin told Gao Jingting that the Japanese army is likely to launch a large-scale attack on Wuhan in the next step, which will eventually form a battle in Wuhan. At present, the base in Central Anhui is in good momentum, but in the long run, it will conflict with the Guangxi troops in the future. The fourth detachment should quickly go east with its main force.
Advance and create an eastern Anhui base. In the future, the main force of the entire New Fourth Army will advance eastward. What is the future of staying in southern Anhui?
After talking about it, the two of them simply left the yard and went to Luoma Lake. They set up a small boat and continued to discuss while enjoying the scenery of Luoma Lake.
At this time, it is near evening, and on the endless lake, the birds take off in the sunset and soar; in the clear water, fish play. Reeds and water plants are like the scenery in ink paintings, gently swaying in the evening breeze.
There was a two fishing boats returning home with a full load, and the fishermen's rough fishing songs were remembered on the boat.
Liu Yimin didn't expect that Luomahu would be so beautiful at this time. He was simply the Xizi hiding in the boudoir. He couldn't help but sing the "Qingqing Luomahu" written by Ren Hongju, composed by Yin Qing, and sung by Song Zuying in that era.
:
"The clear Luoma Lake is endless, standing on the shore of the lake, not far from the west to the east. The autumn water raises shrimps and crabs, the green waves embrace the water and lotus roots, and the fisherman's songs of harvest are sung into my heart.
Endless love, my hometown is always so strong, endless waters are connected to the sky, hoping that you will be more prosperous tomorrow.
The clear Luoma Lake is endless, standing on the shore of the lake, looking west and not east. The water flows for generations in the sky, spring brings all sides of the wind, and the joyful laughter floats into my heart.
Endless love, my hometown feelings are always so strong, endless waters are connected to the sky, tomorrow you will be more prosperous. Tomorrow will be more prosperous."
Gao Jingting didn't expect that Liu Yimin would sing in front of him, and he sang so well. I thought it was incredible that this was the most famous anti-Japanese general in China. How could he sing just by rap?
After singing, Liu Yimin said the beautiful Luomahu again, and then said to Gao Jingting: "Comrade Jingting, people come to the world to enjoy life. Unfortunately, Japan insists on invading us, so we have to fight with them.
We will win in the future. We will build water conservancy here to benefit the land of northern Jiangsu. But we must not destroy the environment, and let Luoma Lake be so clear forever."
Gao Jingting could not keep up with Liu Yimin's ideas at all, so he said, "Teacher Liu, I don't know which day and month to fight this anti-Japanese war? Let's not talk about the future, but let's talk about the development of the Fourth Detachment. I'll do it.
I want to hear your opinion again.”
Liu Yimin breathed a sigh and said lightly: "Consolidate central Anhui and develop eastward."
Gao Jingting wanted to say something else, Liu Yimin waved his hand to stop him and told him directly: "I know you can't bear to leave Dabie Mountains, and I can't bear to leave either. There must be a conflict with the Guangxi clique. They are strong, and we four are
The detachment is not their opponent, and it cannot deal with the Guangxi clan like when he was dealing with Wei Lihuang. Now it is the War of Resistance Against Japan, so we must talk about unity. Listen to me, and quickly lead the main force to advance eastward after returning to establish a base in eastern Anhui. In the future, the future
We also need to send troops to establish bases in northern Anhui and bases in the Henan-Anhui-Suzhou border areas. In addition to northern Jiangsu and central Jiangsu bases, we can greatly expand the strategic depth and stab the Japanese army in the back."
In order to enhance Gao Jingting's determination to advance eastward, Liu Yimin said: "Since the Eighth Route Army set out, it has won many great victories. The New Fourth Army must catch up. Our two armies are all deployed behind enemy lines. In cooperation with the front battlefield of the National Army, the Japanese will be attacked from both sides and unable to attack.
, if you can't hold on, you will go back to Japan obediently in the end."
Gao Jingting came to meet Liu Yimin this time, but he didn't expect that Liu Yimin would criticize the mistakes he made in the fight against anti-counterfeiting so severely, and the criticism convinced him, and his psychological side was not at all. When he was happy, Gao Jingting asked whether it was better to do so.
You can report to the Central Committee and organize the Fourth Detachment into the tutor sequence.
Liu Yimin smiled. Whether it is the Eighth Route Army or the New Fourth Army, they are all Red Army. There is no need to adjust the combat sequence of troops casually. This will easily breed corruption, and the other will easily cause soldiers.
Don't worry, the Central Committee will consider drawing troops from the Eighth Route Army to support the New Fourth Army.
Finally, Liu Yimin seriously told Gao Jingting about the Chairman's strategic thinking on protracted war, and conveyed his own learning and understanding to Gao Jingting. He also suggested that if he had the opportunity, he suggested that Gao Jingting go to Xi'an to study for a while, meet the Chairman, and report to him.
Work some time.
In the evening, during dinner, Liu Yimin specially told him to make a bottle of wine and entertain Gao Jingting.
After dinner, Gao Jingting took his guard squad and left. Liu Yimin took his hand and sent it to the outside of the town. Seeing Gao Jingting and the soldiers boarding the boat, Liu Yimin felt a little anxious. He didn't know how Gao Jingting would act.
Will he die at the hands of his own people like in history?
Gao Jingting left, and there was no need for Liu Yimin to stay here, so he packed his luggage and led the guards north to head back to Shandong.
