Republic of China game

Luo Yaoguo's expression suddenly became serious: "Mr. Mao, in addition to this good news, we just received a piece of bad news." He raised his head and looked at Guo Songling: "Our spy network in Japan found out Yes... the Japanese have decided to increase their troops in a big way! It is estimated that they will increase their troops by eight divisions at a time! By mid-November at the latest, the Japanese's total strength in the Northeast will reach 35 divisions and about [-] .”

"35..." Guo Songling took a deep breath, only to feel blackness in front of her eyes.There are now at most 15 Japanese soldiers in Jinzhou, which has already overwhelmed the Northeast Army and the Communist coalition forces.If it comes down to 35 yuan, how can this battle be fought?

"The Japanese are going to do their best!" Luo Yaoguo said coldly, "And we Chinese are still making our own calculations." When he said this, Natalie, who was standing by the side, sighed softly intentionally or unintentionally. .Luo Yaoguo also coughed, and said solemnly: "The Japanese army is coming aggressively, and they may continue to increase their troops in the future. You must know that they invested more than 100 million people in the Russo-Japanese War to compete with Tsarist Russia for the Northeast! What does Japan say now? They are much stronger than they were back then, right? If they also send 100 million troops, can you keep the situation in the Northeast with your Northeast Army, the Communist Party, and the Anti-Japanese Alliance?"

Guo Songling was startled when he heard the words, thought carefully, and nodded again: "I've always known Little Japan's ambitions, alas... it's just that I was careless this time." He thought for a while and said: "Don't say it's 100 million Even if it’s 35, if the Kuomintang doesn’t send troops, we and the Communist Party won’t be able to defeat it... It’s just that the Communist Party has always insisted on the anti-Japanese national united front, and our Northeast Army must also obey the leadership of this front. A lot of ignorant dolls are moving around in our army, saying that they are promoting the anti-Japanese war, but in my opinion, they are all promoting redification! Even Han Qing..."

Luo Yaoguo narrowed his eyes, and looked at Guo Songling carefully.This man seems to really want to join the Kuomintang, but Zhang Xueliang seems to have not made a final decision, but this little Zhang...let him join the Communist Party.

"Mao Gong, the Japanese are about to increase their troops, and the situation in the Northeast is about to take a turn for the worse. If we still can't unite, we can figure out what will happen with our toes." Luo Yaoguo snorted:

"Our 25th and 26th divisions and Wang Zhongyi's army are nothing more than retreating to Mongolia. At most, one part is holding out in Daxing'anling. And we don't border the Japanese, so we can continue to sing high-profile things. The rest is all about the Communist Party and You of the Northeast Army... When you are defeated by the Japanese, we will charge you with the crime of being unfavorable in resisting Japan, losing ground and humiliating the country, and join forces with Wang Zhongyi and Wang Junhao to attack from three sides. I don’t need to say what the consequences are, right?”

Hearing Luo Yaoguo's blatant threats, Guo Songling remained calm, just looked at each other quietly, and smiled slightly after a long time: "Brother Fuwen wants me to convey this to the Communist Party and Zhang Hanqing?"

"Exactly."

"If the Communist Party and Zhang Hanqing don't listen...will you do it?"

Luo Yaoguo said coldly: "For our Kuomintang, the value of defeating Japan is not as valuable as defeating the Communist Party!" He paused and said, "You can also pass on these two sentences to them."

"Then what do you want? United against Japan? Or... a coalition government?"

Luo Yaoguo smiled faintly: "I just want a joint command to command the Northeast Anti-Japanese Army, the Northeast Army, the National Revolutionary Army, the Youth Army, and the Communist Party. Only when everyone unites can the situation in the Northeast be maintained."

Guo Songling frowned: "Just to maintain? Don't you want to defeat the Japanese and regain the Northeast?"

Luo Yaoguo shook his head, with a slightly gloomy look on his face: "To defeat Japan, we must use an army of more than one million! If we don't take Zhili, we can't let our main force take such a risk." His tone suddenly became more serious: "History is written by the victors, so anything can be done for victory! Please pass this on to the Communist Party."

Guo Songling was stunned for a moment, and finally nodded: "I can take all your words with you. It's just... the Communist Party may not accept this kind of trick, right?"

Luo Yaoguo beckoned to Natalie who was on the side, and Natalie walked over with a file bag, and handed it to Guo Songling with both hands.

Luo Yaoguo pointed to the document bag and said with a smile: "This is the draft of the cooperation between the two parties. Please Maogong take the trouble to bring it to Zhou Enlai of the CCP. They should come to negotiate with us."

……

Beijing, Zhongnanhai West Flower Hall.

"Comrades. This is a naked threat of war by the Kuomintang reactionaries! Facts have now proved that defeating the Kuomintang reactionaries is a prerequisite for defeating Japanese imperialism. Only by first defeating the Kuomintang reactionaries and winning the domestic revolutionary war can it be possible to concentrate the country's manpower Material resources and financial resources are needed to fight the Japanese imperialists. Otherwise, there will be traitors and capitulators like the Kuomintang reactionaries behind us, and the Anti-Japanese War in Northeast China will never be victorious!"

It was Comrade Wang Ming who spoke. Today's meeting of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee discussed the "United Anti-Japanese Plan" brought by Guo Songling. Of course, there was also the threat of war from the Kuomintang reactionaries relayed by him!All the comrades present were filled with righteous indignation, but Wang Ming was the most excited, his eyes behind the glasses exuded fanaticism.

Upon hearing this, a flash of disdain flashed across Mao Zedong's face. He took two puffs of his cigarette and put the butt out in the ashtray.Then he stood up and spoke: "I agree with some of Comrade Wang Ming's opinions. This is indeed a threat of war by the Kuomintang reactionaries and a sabotage of the anti-Japanese national united front led by our party." He said in a somewhat solemn tone: "However, whether to Do you regard the defeat of the Kuomintang reactionaries as a prerequisite for defeating Japanese imperialism? I do not agree with this view."

As soon as Mao Zedong said this, Zhou Enlai nodded steadily, but Wang Ming's face was slightly gloomy.

Mao Zedong glanced at the conference room: "On the contrary, defeating Japanese imperialism and regaining the Northeast are the prerequisites for defeating the Kuomintang reactionaries! If there is no base in Northeast China, we will not have enough financial, material and manpower to fight against the Kuomintang. And Just like what Luo Yaoguo said...Wang Zhongyi is in the north, the Kuomintang is in the south, and Wang Zixing is in the west. They are besieged from three sides! And the Japanese in the east may also participate. Can our new people's government handle such a situation? What's more, the Kuomintang may attack us in the name of going north to resist Japan, slandering us for blocking their way of resisting Japan, so that the masses of the people in the south will be deceived by them. And the cause of the party... will be in extreme danger gone!"

The members of the Politburo who participated in the meeting also knew in their hearts that now they cannot leave Japan and fight against the Kuomintang.Because they couldn't fight at all, the result of the Battle of Taiyuan was already obvious... and the indignation just now was just a matter of position.Now that Mao Zedong had pierced this layer of window paper, everyone expressed their approval one after another. Only Wang Ming's face was livid and he didn't look at it.

"I don't think the Kuomintang's request is negotiable." Zhou Enlai calmed down and took up the topic: "They want a joint command to command all the armies in the Northeast. I think this is acceptable. With this Headquarters... Maybe we can find them to supply part of the weapons and ammunition. And they don't want to unify the military and government, reorganize the army, and they don't plan to send the main force to Jinzhou. So I think their sincerity in resisting Japan is quite strong enough."

"How can you look at it this way?" Wang Ming immediately objected: "Prime Minister, who will be the commander of this headquarters they want to set up? Isn't it a member of the Kuomintang? Wouldn't this be handing over the leadership of the Northeast Anti-Japanese War? "

Zhou Enlai shook his head slightly: "Comrade Wang Ming, Japan is about to massively increase its troops to fifteen divisions! The total strength of the Japanese army will be doubled. Without the Kuomintang's participation in this war, can we sustain it? If this war If we can’t sustain it, the Japanese have completely occupied the Northeast... Is there any way for us to expand our territory through guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines?” He shook his head and asked himself: “Since ancient times, guerrilla warfare alone has never been able to win the entire war. Only by combining the frontal battlefield and the enemy's rear battlefield can it be possible to finally win the war. Now the only way to maintain the frontal battlefield is to rely on the strength of the Kuomintang."

"But once the Kuomintang has taken over the leadership of the War of Resistance Against Japan, they will definitely find ways to consume our strength and limit our development." Wang Mingkang said.

"Of course we must insist on independent mountain guerrilla warfare." Mao Zedong stood up again, holding a freshly lit cigarette in his left hand: "Even on the frontal battlefield, we can't listen to the Kuomintang in everything, and we must insist on ourselves." Here, he immediately added a sentence: "Of course, if their proposition is correct, it is beneficial to fight against Japan. It is not intentional to consume our strength. We can still do it!"

As soon as Mao Zedong's words fell, Zhao Shiyan's report came from outside again, and Zhou Enlai waved him in.

"Report to the President, the Prime Minister, Wang Zixing from Xinjiang and Wang Zhongyi from Harbin issued a telegram." Zhao Shiyan's eyebrows were tightly frowned: "They all agree to establish a joint command to command all the coalition forces to fight against Japan. Wang Zixing also agreed to send the Youth Army No. The first division participated in the Battle of Jinzhou, but he asked our central government to provide weapons and equipment and military pay..."

Mao Zedong sneered, he had expected the two Northwest kings to cooperate with the Kuomintang on this issue, these two people are simply two vicious dogs raised by the Kuomintang!Especially that Wang Zhongyi.

Thinking of Wang Zhongyi, Mao Zedong looked back at Zhou Enlai: "Enlai, did Zhang Xueliang agree to go to Harbin to take command of the overall situation?"

Zhou Enlai sighed: "I agree, but now that the Joint Command is established, the overall command of the Northeast Anti-Japanese War will belong to the Kuomintang. How can he be in command?"

Mao Zedong was startled when he heard the words, fell silent for a while, and slowly shook his head: "We still have to let Zhang Xueliang go to Harbin. The situation there cannot be controlled by Wang Zhongyi and the Kuomintang." After thinking for a while, he said slowly: "The negotiation of this joint headquarters ..."

"I'm going to Wuhan in my own name to negotiate with Luo Yaoguo in person." Zhou Enlai said calmly.

……

Zhou Enlai was going to Wuhan, but Luo Yaoguo invited him to Jinan.The venue for the negotiations between the two parties was chosen in Jinan Wanzhu Garden.In the small and exquisite Baiyun Pavilion, Luo Yaoguo, Natalie, Zhou Enlai, and Xuan Xiafu sat down as guests and hosts.The hospitality is nothing more than a few cups of new tea with a strong fragrance of tea.

"Brother Enlai, the Japanese are coming to find us soon." Luo Yaoguo took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "We both have no choice but to unite."

Compared with Luo Yaoguo, who was full of joy, Zhou Enlai looked worried about the country and the people. He shook his head and sighed: "This is the result of your party insisting on going its own way and setting up a separate central government in the south. Now the Japanese have spotted us. Those who brazenly launch a war of aggression without unity, if you want to..."

"Stop, stop!" Luo Yaoguo waved his hands and said with a smile, "Brother Enlai, you and I have known each other for many years, so there is no need to say such things. In fact, our two parties have the same idea."

Zhou Enlai just shook his head and looked at Luo Yaoguo regretfully: "Our party's proposition is peace and democracy, and the realization of democratic nation-building. As long as you agree to implement democratic constitutionalism and end the dictatorship of one-party dictatorship, what can we not talk about? "

Luo Yaoguo frowned, a trace of displeasure flashed across his face, and he whispered a few words: "A drastic change in January."

"You!" Zhou Enlai was about to say something more when he suddenly found that Natalie was smiling and watching the two bickering.Only then did I remember that this woman joined the Russian Bolshevik Party when she was still a loli...the October Revolution, the Constituent Assembly elections, January dramas, and later the Soviet-Russian Civil War.They have all experienced it first-hand, and they may have participated in some shady inside story as a pornographic spy!

"If constitutional government is not implemented, how will the problem of national division be resolved? If the country is not unified, how can we unite in the war of resistance?" Seeing Zhou Enlai's silence, Xuan Xiafu hurriedly asked the question he had prepared long ago.

Luo Yaoguo immediately smiled and said: "National reunification negotiations can be carried out slowly, but resistance to Japan is imminent. Besides, if the country is not unified, can't we unite to resist Japan? China is just one country with two governments. Many countries in the world are If we can fight together, why can’t our two governments unite?”

Zhou Enlai was taken aback for a moment, and immediately asked: "Who do our two governments respect when we unite?"

Luo Yaoguo smiled: "Who did Britain, France and the United States respect during the European War? Now we have two governments uniting to fight against Japan, and we can completely refer to the model of the two countries' joint operations. The armies of both sides belong to their respective governments, and they are only out of war. The need for unity of command. Our relationship between two governments is an alliance, not a unified coalition government!"

Zhou Enlai was stunned again and again, he couldn't understand why the other party always had the intention of "drawing a clear line"?And there is no sincerity in forming a coalition government, but why does the Kuomintang repeatedly call for the initiation of peaceful reunification and the formation of a coalition government?

Chapter 0523 Combat Negotiation

October 28, [-] AD.

Jinan.

At the gate of Wanzhuyuan by Daming Lake, there is now a plaque of the United Command, and several Kuomintang military police stood guard there.This is the newly released joint anti-Japanese command and coordination agency jointly established by the two central governments of the North and the South.And the first commander of this joint command was naturally Marshal Luo Yaoguo, Chief of Staff of the National Revolutionary Army.

At this moment, in the conference room of the headquarters, several well-dressed generals of various factions were sitting on both sides of an oval conference table.All of them were red-faced, with big eyes and small eyes, and they were arguing there, er, no, it was a negotiation!And it's still a war negotiation.

The Joint Commander Luo Yaoguo sat in the front middle seat of the conference table, drinking a bowl of hot tea without raising his head, and did not move a muscle.

The voices of the two votes of people below gradually sounded.

"...Now is the time when the nation is in peril. Why is your Kuomintang still so preoccupied with no sincerity in uniting against Japan?"

"Huh! What does it mean to have no sincerity? Both of us are the central government, and both sides are equal! Why should we ask us to spend money and guns to arm you?"
