At this time, Liu Yimin had decided to launch a war.
Before the September meeting of the Shandong Bureau, Liu Yimin had been planning to launch a war to disrupt the deployment of the Japanese army in North China. Liu Yimin had already planned how to fight, where to fight, and to what extent.
Since we are going to fight a big war, we need to plan carefully so that the little devils can find their teeth all over the ground.
On October 2, when the Japanese army attacked the Sixth Division, Nara Detachment, and Shangcun Detachment in Changsha and retreated, Yu Xuezhong, Commander-in-Chief of the Sulu Theater, and Shen Honglie, Chairman of the Shandong Provincial Government, Shandong Provincial Security Commander, and Feng Chen Pu Pu rushed to the store and asked to see the famous Eighth Route Army instructor Liu Yimin.
This time, the instructor leaders Liu Yimin, Luo Ronghuan, Zeng Zhongsheng, Tan Zheng, and Cai Zhong all came out to greet him.
After Tan Zheng attended the Shandong Bureau meeting, he did not return to the Ludong headquarters. He was an instructor and deputy political commissar of the Shandong Military Region. He joined the anti-mopping operations when he arrived in Shandong. He had met Liu Yimin rarely and was not very familiar with each other. The war was about to begin. , it was necessary to enrich the leadership and communicate among the team members, so Liu Yimin asked Tan Zheng to stay at the division headquarters and perform the duties of deputy political commissar.
Both Yu Xuezhong and Shen Honglie came to Dadian for the second time. The last time they came, it was when Liu Yimin broke through Longhai Road and returned north, Luo Ronghuan met them and gave them emergency support with some military rations. This time, the two of them worked together. Come, no matter what, I still want food. However, in name, they both said they came to pay a visit to Master Liu Yimin.
Shen Honglie was an old acquaintance, but this was the first time he met Yu Xuezhong. Unexpectedly, a big joke happened as soon as he arrived at the division headquarters and sat down.
After all, Yu Xuezhong and Shen Honglie were the commander-in-chief of the Sulu Theater and the other the provincial chairman. The Eighth Route Army could not lose the necessary etiquette. Therefore, Cai Zhong specifically asked Zhao Xiaoman, who had been accompanying the division headquarters recently, to receive them and serve them tea and water.
Although Yu Xuezhong knew something about Liu Yimin, he had never met Ni Hua, Tang Xingying, and Zhao Xiaoman, so he couldn't tell who was who. However, he was the commander-in-chief of the Sulu Theater, so Chiang Kai-shek naturally wanted to inform him about Liu Yimin's wife. Therefore, when she saw how beautiful Zhao Xiaoman was when she came in to pour water, she thought it was Tang Xingying and said politely: "I dare not work, Madam, I can't bear it!"
This statement made not only Zhao Xiaoman blush, but also Liu Yimin, Luo Ronghuan, Zeng Zhongsheng, Cai Zhong and Shen Honglie who were present were all shocked and inexplicable. Shen Honglie burst out laughing at that time.
The conflict between Shen Honglie and Yu Xuezhong had already become public, and they kept sending secret telegrams to Chiang Kai-shek to complain. Now that he saw the commander-in-chief Yu Xuezhong making such a joke, he despised Yu Xuezhong more and more in his heart, and naturally he wanted to laugh. Yu Xuezhong was embarrassed.
Zhao Xiaoman quickly poured the water, said "please drink water" and exited with a blushing face.
As soon as Zhao Xiaoman went out, Liu Yimin stopped giving face to Shen Honglie and said coldly: "Why is Chairman Shen laughing? What's so funny? Commander Yu has never met my wife, so what's the big deal if he admits the wrong person? It's worth it to you Is this a joke?"
Shen Honglie quickly stopped laughing and picked up the water glass to drink.
After Liu Yimin was disgusted with Shen Honglie, he said to Xuezhong: "Commander Yu, I didn't introduce it clearly to you. The female comrade just now is not my wife, but Comrade Zhao Xiaoman, the head of the art group of our Eighth Route Army Instructor. My wife is not in Shandong now. "
Yu Xuezhong's face turned purple. Hearing this, he quickly said, "I'm sorry, I was careless."
Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong knew that Yu Xuezhong mistook Zhao Xiaoman for Tang Xingying, so Cai Zhong casually added: "Comrade Tang Xingying is inspecting work and is not at the division headquarters."
After Cai Zhong finished speaking, he suddenly felt Luo Ronghuan's eyes looking at him, and realized that he was talking too much. Some things can only be understood but not expressed in words. Once explained clearly, there is no meaning at all. Ni Hua is now Liu Yimin's serious son. His wife is a real Eighth Route Army cadre, and everyone recognizes her. We can no longer think of her as Soong Meiling's cousin as in the past. When others mention Mrs. Liu Yimin, she will consciously or unconsciously think of her as Tang Xingying, lest others Misunderstood Liu Yimin’s position.
The reason why Liu Yimin didn't give Shen Honglie face just now was mainly because he listened to Luo Ronghuan's introduction after he came back and found out that Shen Honglie actually wanted to open his New Fourth Division to the big store while he was away in Shandong. If this guy didn't do anything, , I still don’t know what trouble will happen! It seems that letting Shen Honglie stay in Shandong will be a disaster after all, so I have to find a way to get rid of him.
Liu Yimin agreed with Luo Ronghuan. Shen Honglie's unreasonable request must have been approved by Chiang Kai-shek. It seemed that he could not wishfully think that solving the Tanggou Incident would stop the climax of the uprising launched by Chiang Kai-shek in history. ** *The Fifth Plenary Session of the 5th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China has already decided the agenda, now it’s just a matter of deciding when to launch it.
Because of this vigilance, Liu Yimin proposed at the Shandong Bureau meeting to increase the anti-rebellion work against the Xuezhong Department. The purpose was to transform the Xuezhong Department into the Xuezhong Department and avoid friction incidents in Shandong. You must know that anti-recalcitrant warfare has historically It was a very important task for the Eighth Route Army during the Anti-Japanese War. I don’t know how many heroes were sacrificed in the friction. Yu Xuezhong’s 57th Army Commander Miao Zhengliu almost surrendered to the enemy and became a traitor. He was killed by Chang Enduo and Wan Wan, the commanders of the 111th Division. After Yi found out, he was expelled from the army, and the designation of the 57th Army was also revoked by Chiang Kai-shek. Now Yu Xuezhong's department was suffered heavy losses by the rebuilt 10th Division of the Japanese army, and they lost the base area assigned to them. Life was very difficult, and Miao Zhengliuzhi It's hard to say whether Liu made any small moves. I'm afraid Yu Xuezhong himself may not know what his subordinates are doing.
The reason why Liu Yimin agreed to meet Yu Xuezhong and Shen Honglie this time was that he wanted to run against Shen Honglie and drive him out of Lu; the second reason was that he wanted Yu Xuezhong's troops to cooperate in the fight.
After Yu Xuezhong finished speaking, Liu Yimin asked diligently whether the journey went well, and then asked about the situation of the troops.
Yu Xuezhong is an old-school soldier, but he sympathizes with the Communists in his heart, and there are always Communists in his army. Moreover, Yu Xuezhong is determined to resist Japan. On these two points, Liu Yimin has no reason not to see him.
Seeing that Liu Yimin had a kind attitude and that several leaders of the instructors were there, Yu Xuezhong said a few polite words and introduced the current defense situation of the 51st Army and the 57th Army.
According to Yu Xuezhong's introduction, after the 51st Army and the 57th Army failed in the anti-mopping operations and lost Cangshan County and Feixian County, with the assistance of the Eighth Route Army's New Eighth Brigade, New Fourth Brigade, and Tai'an Detachment, they have established a military base based on the Qihe River in Fei County. The defense line was set up to confront the Japanese army. The defense line is currently stable. However, the losses of the troops were too great. Both the 51st Army and the 57th Army were reduced by a quarter, and there was a shortage of food. After I went to Dadian to ask Commissar Luo for help last time, the Eighth Route Army supported a batch of military rations. , temporarily overcoming the difficulties. However, now that we are running out of food, we have to ask for help from the Eighth Route Army again.
After Yu Xuezhong's introduction, Liu Yimin turned to Shen Honglie.
Shen Honglie is indeed a talent. What is particularly valuable is that in the corrupt Communist bureaucracy, Shen Honglie is very clean. Moreover, he has not been ambiguous in the fight against Japan. For Shen Honglie, Liu Yimin originally It is true that he sincerely wanted to use his special skills and let him lead the naval academy. Now it seems that Shen Honglie would rather be the chairman of his Shandong Provincial Government than the principal of the Shandong Naval Academy. For him, just Not being able to embarrass himself, Liu Yimin decided to expel him. Otherwise, leaving a *** Shandong Provincial Chairman with no soldiers, no food, no money, and making trouble from time to time was next to him. Liu Yimin felt tired and was not willing to do anything for it. Dealing with him perfunctorily will waste energy and delay the fight against the Japanese.
Liu Yimin turned to ask Chairman Shen if there was anything he needed help from the Eighth Route Army to solve.
Shen Honglie is also a respectable person. He was scolded and ridiculed by Liu Yimin just now, which made his face red. He sat there drinking water quietly without saying a word, because he knew in his heart that Liu Yimin was using the topic to make an attack.
Originally, Shen Honglie came here to borrow food, and the other really wanted to see Liu Yimin. After all, when he left Jinan, Liu Yimin not only gave him kind words and advice, but also gave him weapons and sent troops to escort him. The affection was genuine. Really. Fortunately, I listened to Liu Yimin and didn't go looking for Li Wenli rashly, otherwise he might have become a prisoner of the Japanese army. Now, because of his inappropriate laughter just now, Liu Yimin was disgusted and made everyone give in. It's a joke, but Shen Honglie's words are hard to say.
After muttering for a long time, Shen Honglie said: "Mr. Liu, my problem is also a food problem, and I would like to ask your army to help solve it. Another reason why I came here is to represent the Shandong Provincial Government in dealing with Miss An Jingjing and those who worked on Longhai Road." Salute to the martyrs who died in the war!"
This sounds pretty good, because since the results of the Battle of Longhai Road and the news of Jingjing’s sacrifice were announced, apart from Wenhui Po reprinting the full text of Liu Yimin’s commemorative article and publishing an introduction to his deeds, other newspapers in the rear area have had little response. Especially especially The Nationalist Government and the Shandong Provincial Government have not said a word yet!
Liu Yimin did not say any words of thanks, but said: "Chairman Shen, since our division entered the Shandong Anti-Japanese War, it has fought in Linqing, Liaocheng, Qingdao, Bin County, Luzhong, Jinan, Tai'an, and Southern Shandong. The battles were all over Shandong. Although the results were fruitful and the record was brilliant, there was no battle without death. Could it be that all the little devils were holding were fire sticks? Our sacrifices were very great, including Comrade Huang Su, the main leader of our division. Our division had one division-level leader, three brigade-level leaders, and two main regiment commanders who died for the country. Tens of thousands of people below the battalion commander level died. If calculated according to the establishment of the *** division, it is equivalent to a replacement of the entire division. According to the pension regulations for revolutionary soldiers, these martyrs should be compensated by the National Government. We are compiling and printing a list of martyrs who died in the 18th Army. After the compilation is completed, we will submit it to the Shandong Provincial Government and ask Chairman Shen to allocate pension funds."
Shen Honglie was silent, and Yu Xuezhong was silent.
