The headquarters of the Red Army was located in the former Sichuan Provincial Government.
Liu Yimin arrived at the Red Army headquarters early in the morning. He first went to see Comrade Chen Yun and wanted to ask if there was anything he needed help with logistics.
Chen Yun is in good spirits now. When Liu Yimin went there, he was reading the "Xinxin News" newspaper he had just bought.
Seeing Liu Yimin coming, Comrade Chen Yun asked Liu Yimin to sit down, poured some water, and said: "I was just going to find you. Tell me, why did you say that we can unite with Chiang Kai-shek to resist Japan? Don't you know what we said before?
Opposing Chiang Kai-shek and resisting Japan?”
Liu Yimin thought to himself that this was definitely not the opinion of Comrade Chen Yun alone, but should be the opinion of many comrades. He stood up and saluted, and then said: "Comrade Chen Yun, we should seek truth from facts when looking at the problem. Since our Red Army proposed to go north to fight against Japan, then
The issue of Chiang Kai-shek cannot be avoided. Now, Chiang Kai-shek represents the legitimate government of China, controls most of China's troops, and controls the economy. Without his participation, it would take a long time for us alone to win the Anti-Japanese War.
.Besides, even if the Japanese launch an all-out war of aggression against China, the first target they will target is Chiang Kai-shek and his Central Army, not our Red Army. Therefore, once an all-out anti-Japanese war breaks out, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party must implement a joint war of resistance and unite the whole of China.
Only with the rope can we fight against the Japanese invaders. After all, Japan's economic strength and military strength are really very strong. Not the Red Army, nor Chiang Kai-shek's Central Army, nor any other local strength can compete alone. This is my idea. Please criticize it.
."
Comrade Chen Yun did not answer, but changed the topic and asked: "Why do you say that as long as the Central Committee and the Red Army headquarters give an order, you are absolutely sure to capture Xue Yue alive? Can you do it?"
Liu Yimin smiled confidently: "Capturing Xue Yue alive does not necessarily require a large force. A small and elite force can complete the task. There is no problem with this."
"Then you mean we can also capture Chiang Kai-shek alive?" Comrade Chen Yun was angry and funny, his tone full of ridicule.
Liu Yimin said seriously: "It is not impossible. If Chiang Kai-shek leaves Nanjing and the main force of the Central Army, for example, to inspect somewhere, etc., as long as the intelligence is accurate, it is not impossible. If there are good guns, like the Soviet Union's Mosin-Nagant
With a sniper rifle, a sniper can kill him. However, the problem is that we cannot kill him. If we kill him now, China will immediately fall apart, which is equivalent to helping the Japanese."
Comrade Chen Yun looked at Liu Yimin again: "Are you kidding?"
Liu Yimin took a sip of water and said: "The water in Chengdu is really good, and the tea is better than other places."
Chen Yun finally understood that the young man in front of him was really hiding his secrets. Judging from his appearance, he could do what he said. After thinking about it, he said: "If you can kill Chiang Kai-shek with a sniper rifle, let's stop here.
Don't tell anyone. If the warlords and the Japanese know about it, they might take the risk. That would be troublesome. I remembered, wasn't Austria-Hungary the trigger of World War I?
Was Archduke Ferdinand, the heir to the imperial throne, shot to death by a young Serbian named Princip? You are right. If Chiang Kai-shek dies now, his arrogant and powerful generals will immediately bite each other like mad dogs, without the Japanese
If we come to fight, China will be in chaos."
Liu Yimin asked if there was anything else that needed help with logistics. Comrade Chen Yun shook his head: "You have done a good job. You have made so much money in Chengdu this time, which is equivalent to killing all the warlords in Sichuan. What about our Red Army?"
Have you ever been as wealthy as you are now? If you can't handle logistics with money, then we will all be blushing. Thank you to all the cadres and soldiers of the Seventh Army for me, and say that our logistics comrades will do their best to ensure the supply of our comrades.
, fully support the comrades in winning the war."
Liu Yimin sighed: "Just having money is not enough. It would be great if we could build an advanced arsenal."
Chen Yun thought for a while and said: "With the funds we have now, we can build a very advanced arsenal, and even supporting steel plants, coal mines, and coking plants. The problem is that we don't have a stable base. Where can we build it?"
Liu Yimin said: "I'm going to go to the Chairman and the others right away to ask if the next step is confirmed. Chengdu is not a place for us to stay for a long time. If we stay for a long time, Chiang Kai-shek's deployment will be completed. By then, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave even if we want to.
, we have to fight with blood again.”
Chen Yun looked at Liu Yimin: "Can't we gain a foothold here? The Chengdu Plain is rich in products and human resources. We rely on this place to open up contact with the Fourth Front Army. The two front armies have 1,200,000 troops to fight together, and it is very possible to eliminate them.
Sichuan Army, Reduce all Sichuan. When the Red Army develops and grows, we can enter and exit Sichuan to compete with Chiang Kai-shek for the world, and when we retreat, we can defend ourselves according to the natural dangers. Isn't this great?"
Hearing what Chen Yun said, Liu Yimin knew that he was in trouble. He was afraid that something would come. Maybe the top leaders of the central government had formed the opinion of occupying Sichuan. At least some comrades had this view. If this was true, then history would happen.
Big changes.
Thinking about it, I come from later generations and are very familiar with the direction of history, but these revolutionary predecessors are different. How did they know that the North China Incident would happen soon, that the Japanese would fully invade China in 1937, and that Sichuan would be the beginning of the Chinese nation’s war of resistance?
What about the rear area?
Think again, at this time, in the minds of the vast majority of Red Army cadres and soldiers, the biggest enemy is Chiang Kai-shek and the Central Army. For the time being, the Japanese are not on the list! Although the Red Army plans to go north to fight against Japan, the Japanese are still there.
Far away outside the Great Wall, Chiang Kai-shek's Central Army is chasing after them with guns, and they may fight with the Red Army at any time. This real enemy cannot be solved yet, so how can we talk about fighting an enemy thousands of miles away?
?Now, what the Red Army cadres and soldiers probably want most is for another Central Plains War to break out, and let Chiang Kai-shek and the warlords fight dog-eat-dog, the more chaotic the better, and the harder they fight, the better. In that case, Chiang Kai-shek will no longer have to worry about chasing the Red Army.
Liu Yimin felt very depressed and couldn't help but smile bitterly. To be honest, his ideas were a bit ahead of the current Red Army ranks. Because he came from a later generation, the starting point for considering the war situation was how to fight the Anti-Japanese War. But the Red Army cadres and soldiers now consider
The starting point of the problem is how to survive and how to break Chiang Kai-shek's encirclement and suppression. The number one enemy in his eyes is the Japanese. The number one enemy in the eyes of the Red Army soldiers now is Chiang Kai-shek and his Central Army. Only when the Anti-Japanese War breaks out in an all-round way will the Japanese become Red Army soldiers.
The number one enemy in my mind. Although the Japanese have invaded Northeast China, they are outside the Great Wall and far away from the Red Army. The Red Army soldiers have not yet experienced and felt the threat of the Japanese!
We need to meet the Chairman and the others as soon as possible.
Liu Yimin did not bother to talk to Comrade Chen Yun any more. After saying goodbye, he went to the Red Army General Staff Headquarters. He knew that Chairman Mao, Vice Chairman Zhou, and Commander-in-Chief Zhu should all be there.
When we arrived at the General Staff Headquarters, several leaders were indeed there.
Seeing Liu Yimin, several leaders had smiles on their faces. No wonder, Liu Yimin's appearance brought too many surprises to the Red Army. Not to mention the victory in the battle, the captured weapons and equipment were visible to ordinary soldiers.
The golden gold bars and white silver coins that are tangible but invisible to ordinary soldiers are so intangible that they make people dizzy. When in the history of the Red Army was it as well-funded as it is now?
Zhou Enlai spoke first: "Comrade Liu Yimin, you asked Comrade Hu Di to rescue the comrades of the Sichuan underground party in prison in time. You did a good job and rescued many comrades. Now they are recovering from their injuries and working at the same time. You can arrange a time,
I met with several comrades who have been exposed, and they all asked to work in your Seventh Army Corps!"
Liu Yimin hurriedly said: "Vice Chairman Zhou, welcome comrades to the Seventh Army Corps. Don't worry, I will definitely arrange their work."
Mao Zedong spoke: "Comrade Liu Yimin, what do you think of the current situation? Tell us."
Liu Yimin thought, I'm here to ask your opinion. It's better. I have to express my own opinion first. He said: "Report to the Chairman, I have some immature ideas. Let's put it out for the reference of the leaders. What's wrong?
Please criticize the Chairman, Vice Chairman Zhou, Commander-in-Chief Zhu and Comrade Luo Fu."
Mr. Zhu said: "Don't wear boots and hats, just say it!"
Liu Yimin said: "Let's talk about situation analysis first. First, the situation in Sichuan: After our army occupied Chengdu, five legions were deployed around Chengdu, and the troops were in a state of rest and replenishment. Currently, our seven legions control Guanghan, Shifang, Deyang, and Pixian.
Guanxian, Pengzhou, Chongzhou, and Dayi form Chengdu's arc-shaped defense line from north to west; our 1st and 9th Corps control Leshan, Meishan, Pujiang, Qionglai, and Shuangliu areas, forming the southern and southwest defense lines of Chengdu; our 3rd and 5th Army
The Corps controls Zigong, Ziyang, Suining, Sanjiang, and the Zhongtai line, forming the eastern defense line of Chengdu; our Fourth Front Army is in Bazhong to contain the main force of the Sichuan Army's North Road. As for the enemy Sichuan Army, Liu Wenhui's 24th Army huddled in Ya'an and defended the north.
The main force of the Sichuan Army controls the Jialing River to prevent the Fourth Army from crossing the river south. The South Sichuan Army has assembled in Luzhou, echoing the Chongqing garrison, and confronts our 3rd and 5th Army Corps. As for the enemy's Central Army, Xue Yue's troops are on standby on the east bank of the Chishui River.
It is possible that Tang Enbo and other troops who stayed in Zunyi will rush to Renhuai to join Xue Yue's troops. From the north of Sichuan, the enemy Hu Zong can go south at any time to support the Sichuan Army's North Route troops. Chiang Kai-shek may also mobilize the army to be transported along the Yangtze River to Wanxian or Chongqing.
Go ashore and join the battle."
Liu Yimin paused, glanced at the expressions of several leaders, and continued: "Second, our army's countermeasures. First, negotiate with the Sichuan army, based on the existing line of control, both sides will not invade each other, and then the main force of our army will go north with all its strength.
, occupied Hanzhong, joined forces with the four front armies, and jointly expanded the Sichuan-Shaanxi base area. After that, the main force of our army attacked north and west, captured Hanzhong, Gannan, and southern Qinghai, and established a four-pronged army across Sichuan, Shaanxi, Gansu, and Qinghai.
The base area of the province. Second, the entire army quickly went north to establish a base area in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia region. Then it went all out to operate Gansu, Ningxia, and Qinghai, eliminate the two horses, and establish a stable base area. Then it developed production and strengthened the army. It could attack Shanxi to the east and Shanxi to the south.
Shaanxi can be occupied, and Xinjiang can be occupied to the west. The strategic space is huge. With the current strength of our Red Army, the northwest warlords are not our opponents and cannot stop us. Once the Anti-Japanese War breaks out in an all-round way, we can march eastward to fight the Japanese invaders.
In Shanxi, Hebei, Shandong, and Henan. Third, eliminate the Sichuan army and occupy Sichuan. The advantage is that Sichuan is rich, has a large population, and is easy to replenish. The disadvantage is that Chiang Kai-shek is likely to mobilize a large army to fight with me in Sichuan, resulting in
The military strength of both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party has been greatly reduced, and it is very likely that the Japanese will take advantage of it. By then, the Japanese army will fully invade China, and Chiang Kai-shek will be completely defeated and unable to retreat. It is very likely that he will compromise with the Japanese invaders. In that case, our gains in occupying Sichuan will outweigh the losses."
Mao Zedong asked: "Which one do you prefer?"
Liu Yimin said: "I prefer the second one."
Mr. Zhu said: "Tell me your reasoning."
Liu Yimin said: "This truth was actually stated at the Zunyi Conference. First, our army wants to completely occupy the Chengdu Plain area now controlled. Although it has abundant resources and people, it is also the focus of national attention. The Sichuan Army will not agree. If we
If our army forcibly occupied it, it would be a war, a bloody battle, and the price paid would be extremely high. Second, if our army wants to eliminate the Sichuan Army and control the entire Sichuan, the Sichuan Army will definitely open the door to Sichuan and welcome the Central Army to enter Sichuan. At that time, Chiang Kai-shek will pour all his strength into Sichuan.
To encircle and suppress us with all our strength, it is very likely that we will use all our elite troops to encircle us on all sides. Thirdly, although the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia region is poor and has poor conditions, we are in difficulty and the enemy is equally in difficulty. We have to run on two legs, and the enemy is also on two legs.
Running on two legs. Moreover, Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia is relatively remote and not as eye-catching as the Chengdu Plain. It can be said that if Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia is lost, no one will say that Chiang Kai-shek is incompetent. But if the Chengdu Plain and Sichuan are lost, Chiang Kai-shek's
The Nationalist Government has no place to save its face and has to fight tooth and nail. I estimate that Chiang Kai-shek is mobilizing troops and generals, and his representatives may be in Chongqing now."
Mao Zedong said to himself: "This Sichuan is really a good place!"
Liu Yimin added: "Chairman, Vice Chairman Zhou, and Commander-in-Chief Zhu, there is another concern that I have not mentioned, that is, it will be a matter of time for the Japanese army to fully invade China. Don't say that North China cannot be defended by then. I think Shanghai, Nanjing, and Wuhan
Sichuan is the only place where Chiang Kai-shek and the Nationalist Government can hold on. With the natural barrier as a barrier, Chiang Kai-shek can continue to deal with the Japanese army and persist in the war of resistance to the end. If we occupy Sichuan, Chiang Kai-shek will have no way to retreat and will be forced to
We are anxious, and we cannot rule out the possibility of compromise with the Japanese invaders. At that time, it will be too difficult for our Red Army to fight against the Japanese army independently. Therefore, what I mean is that starting from the overall situation of the national war of resistance, we must give Chiang Kai-shek the support in advance.
Leave a way out with his National Government so that he can join us in resisting Japan. Once the war against Japan is won, our strength will probably be extremely strong. By then it will not be a question of whether Chiang Kai-shek wants to attack us, but that we will liberate all of China.
"
No one spoke, and the room was very quiet for a while.
Liu Yimin thought for a moment and then said: "I also know that Sichuan is a good place. If you occupy Sichuan, you will have the capital to compete for the world. However, if we, the Communist Party, and our Red Army want to win the support and support of the people across the country, we must play our part in the Anti-Japanese War.
The role of leader and mainstay. If we occupy Sichuan just to compete for the world, then in the minds of the people across the country, we will be the same as the warlords in Guangdong, Guangxi, Shanxi, Sichuan, Qinghai, and Ningxia. No matter how we defend ourselves, no matter how we say that we want to
The Chinese people would not believe anyone who went north to fight against Japan."
Mao Zedong waved his hand: "You go, we will think about it again."
After leaving the Red Army headquarters, Liu Yimin was in a very bad mood. It seemed that before he came, the central government had made up his mind to eliminate the Sichuan army and occupy Sichuan. What he just said was not complete. Under the excitement, it was inevitable that there would be
Error. I don’t know if these great men can listen.
In a bad mood, Liu Yimin didn't want to go back to the garrison headquarters, so he just strolled casually on the street. Li Chengyi followed closely behind him with a squad of soldiers.
Before I knew it, I came to Wuhou Temple outside the south gate.
Before time travel, Liu Yimin once visited the Wuhou Temple and wrote an essay "Visiting the Wuhou Temple", in which he expressed his admiration and praise for Zhuge Liang's great achievements and noble character in creating the great cause of the Shu Han Dynasty. It may have been written to compare
Well, several newspapers and periodicals in his hometown reprinted it.
Liu Yimin couldn't help but have mixed feelings when he accidentally broke into Wuhou Temple. He took a look and saw that there were no tourists in Wuhou Temple, only him and his guard soldiers.
Although it is not as grand as the crowds of later generations, it can be seen that the people of Chengdu take good care of the Wuhou Temple. The courtyard is clean, with nanmu and green bamboo, and the buildings are in good condition. Obviously, although Chengdu has also been visited many times
Despite the war, no one dared to act wild here.
Entering the main hall, I stood quietly in front of the statue of Wuhou, thinking that Wuhou led the troops in his later years. Although he gave Liu Chan, the lord of Shu, the eternal masterpiece "Come out of the Army", it still could not eliminate the embarrassing situation of suspicion between the emperor and his ministers. After Liu Chan's death, Liu Chan
Not even a temple was willing to be built for him, so he suddenly felt that life was boring.
When I think about the time when I traveled to Chengdu to visit Wuhou Temple, my parents were with me, and the family of three was enjoying themselves happily, I can’t help but burst into tears. I am so powerful in this era, but I don’t know if my parents can survive in that era.
When the son is gone, there is no hope. There is no greater sadness than the death of a heart! Even if the parents who have lost hope can survive, their hearts will be like dead wood. For them, life is just like the sky in Chengdu today, a gray
.
Li Chengyi stood behind Liu Yimin, but he didn't know why the regiment commander suddenly burst into tears. He was so anxious that he didn't know how to deal with it. He thought that it would be better if Director Cai or Miss Tang and Miss Zhao were here. He was really too stupid.
, can’t even persuade others.
With no other choice, Li Chengyi had no choice but to order the soldiers in the guard squad to turn away and not watch the regiment commander cry.
At this time, Liu Yimin lost his mind and was at his weakest.
Stumbling out of the main hall, not knowing whether to go north or south, Liu Yimin wandered around the courtyard of Wuhou Temple, unaware of the danger that had quietly come.
Ever since Chiang Kai-shek issued a million-dollar reward in anger, Dai Li knew that Liu Yimin's problem must be solved.
Originally, according to what Chiang Kai-shek told Dai Li last time, he wanted Dai Li to try to win over Liu Yimin to rebel. Unfortunately, the Red Army was erratic and Dai Li had no way of making a move.
Liu Yimin finally led his army to occupy Chengdu, and the Red Army expanded its troops in Sichuan. Dai Li felt suspicious and sent people to approach Liu Yimin. Unexpectedly, Liu Yimin's words at the press conference completely angered Chiang Kai-shek, and he offered a reward of one million yuan for Liu Yimin's head.
Dai Li knew that if he could not do this well, his status in the eyes of the leaders would probably decline.
Therefore, Dai Li ordered the members of the Blue Clothes Club who had already been lurking in Chengdu to monitor the movements of the Sichuan Army to act quickly to find out the pattern of Liu Yimin's activities and wait for an opportunity to take action to completely eliminate this red bandit who made the Chairman extremely angry.
This led to the encounter and conversation between the tough man and the tea patron dressed as a rich boy in the Wenyue Lai Teahouse.
The tea guest dressed as a rich kid was the person in charge of the Blue Clothes Club living in Chengdu. When he returned to the hiding place, he found out that the chairman of the committee had offered a reward of one million silver dollars to kill someone. God, this is really a windfall from heaven! Kill someone.
If someone can get one million, then wouldn't it be in vain that he killed so many Communists in the past? Damn it.
After some discussion, several agents realized that they were weak and could not complete the mission on their own. If they had money to spend, they might as well contact the people on the dock.
When I heard that there was a reward of one million oceans, naturally some people were jealous. Soon the spies found helpers. Some people were watching the gate of the garrison headquarters and recording Liu Yimin's travel patterns. There were people who were responsible for liaison and five action teams were formed.
Distributed in several areas in the east, west, north, south and middle of Chengdu, we are ready to take action at any time.
Early this morning, the spies reported that the target had appeared. Now the spies were as nervous as if they had taken stimulants. By the time Liu Yimin entered the Red Army headquarters, he had already been caught by an action team. It was just that the spies entered
We didn't have the guts to attack on the streets surrounded by sentries when we didn't get to the Red Army headquarters.
Look at Liu Yimin leaving the Red Army headquarters, looking melancholy, and walking towards the south gate. The agents in charge of sentry sent out a tracking signal. When Liu Yimin entered the Wuhou Temple, the agents knew that half of the 1 million oceans were almost in hand.
.So, several groups of spies were dispatched and hid around the dilapidated walls of Wuhou Temple, waiting to launch a thunderous strike.
It's not that Hu Di didn't realize that someone was spying on him, but Liu Yimin ordered him to use himself as bait to lure the enemy agents into action and catch them all. Hu Di also made a detailed plan, preparing to choose a suitable place and set up a net to wait. But against all odds, no matter what,
Hu Di is a god and he doesn’t know
Liu Yimin was in a bad mood when he came out of the Red Army Headquarters, and even touched the Wuhou Temple. Hu Di didn't even know that Liu Yimin was a time traveler. Before the time travel, he visited Wuhou Temple with his parents.
You have to wander around the garden like a fool.
Li Chengyi felt that the legion commander was not normal today, and he was very nervous. He sent a soldier immediately back to the south gate and asked for reinforcements to be sent to strengthen the defense force. At the same time, he ordered the soldiers to disperse and form a loose defense circle around the legion commander.
