"Of course we hope to join forces with you." Shen Honglie, who had not spoken all this time, was ahead of Wang Yizhe and replied unequivocally: "The most important thing now is to rescue Vice Chairman Zhang, and other things should be handled by Vice Chairman Zhang." We will talk about it after we are rescued, and before Vice Chairman Zhang returns, it is very necessary to maintain the stability of the Northeast Army, so we hope that the political work of the Communist Party can be suspended until Vice Chairman Zhang returns."

"Okay, I'll help you bring the news. So what are your specific thoughts on rescuing Vice Chairman Zhang?" Deng Yanda let out a light sigh, and this time the task of stabilizing the Northeast Army was finally completed.

Wang Yizhe and Shen Honglie also breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Yizhe quickly said: "We hope to confirm the safety of Vice Chairman Zhang first, and then carry out rescue negotiations. attach any conditions."

Deng Yanda silently calculated that the decision to temporarily open the Jinpu Line and the Beining Line had already been passed by the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. Confirming Zhang Xueliang's safety and launching rescue negotiations were also what the CCP hoped for.He smiled and nodded: "I can agree to these requests on behalf of the CCP, but... who do you plan to send to Wuhan to meet with Vice Chairman Zhang? I think the KMT may detain Vice Chairman Zhang and prevent you If you see him, you may even detain the people you sent there."

"I'll go!" A somewhat hoarse female voice sounded from outside the room: "The KMT thinks that it has inherited Sun Yat-sen's behest, and is committed to a democratic and constitutional government. Presumably they don't bother to bully me, a weak girl?"

As soon as the words were finished, Deng Yanda saw the door of the living room being pushed open, and an elegant and chrysanthemum-like woman walked in gracefully outside.The hair color is jet-black, the eyebrows are delicate, and there are tear stains in the corners of the eyes, but it makes me even more pitiful.

"Mrs. Zhang." Deng Yanda recognized that the person who came was Zhang Xueliang's wife, Yu Fengzhi, and hurriedly got up to greet him.

Yu Fengzhi nodded slightly at Deng Yanda: "General Zesheng, I plan to take Hanqing's special plane to Wuhan tomorrow, and Hanqing's adviser, Mr. Duan Na, will go with me."

……

Zhongnanhai, West Flower Hall.

After Deng Yanda's telegram from Tianjin arrived, the leaders of the Politburo in the meeting room all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.It is now basically certain that Zhang Xueliang was "kidnapped" by the Kuomintang rather than "betrayed the revolution."However, the attendees were all worried that this Young Master Zhang would not be able to resist the temptation of the KMT and betray him. For a comrade with many "bad habits", the possibility of being tempted seems quite high.

The room fell silent. Zhou Enlai was holding the telegram in his hand, reading it carefully over and over again, while he was nervously calculating in his heart.Of course he knew the true thoughts of most of the generals of the Northeast Army. These people were small warlords attached to Zhang Xueliang, and most of them had a lot of wealth and bought good houses and beautiful fields in the Northeast.If the "Voting to the Communist Party" can keep their military power and let them continue to be warlords, then of course they couldn't be happier.But the CCP has made the party command the guns, and it also wants to eliminate the warlords and reorganize the army!Therefore, in the same situation where military power is to be deprived, the Kuomintang, which protects private property, is still more attractive than the Communist Party, which wants to eliminate private ownership.So to keep the 10,000+ army, Zhang Xueliang must be brought back.

"Comrades." Zhou Enlai put down the telegram in his hand, and looked around the room with piercing eyes: "Comrade Zhang Xueliang's lover Yu Fengzhi will go to Wuhan at the risk of his life tomorrow. And we, Comrade Zhang Xueliang's close comrades-in-arms Of course Ms. Yu Fengzhi can't go deep into the tiger's den alone, right?" He stood up abruptly: "I plan to go to Wuhan with Yu Fengzhi, and I want to see if the capital of the Kuomintang is Longtan and Tiger's Den!"

"No! Comrade Enlai must not take such a risk."

As soon as Zhou Enlai's words came out, Gu Shunzhang immediately jumped up and said loudly: "It's better for me to go. I'm in charge of the United Front and intelligence work in the Kuomintang-controlled area, so it's most appropriate for me to go."

Hearing Gu Shunzhang's words, a trace of disappointment flashed across Wang Ming's face, and he calmed down again in a blink of an eye. He took a sip from his teacup and said, "Let Comrade Bogu from Xi'an also go to Wuhan. He has been negotiating with the Kuomintang all along. The head of the new negotiating delegation will..."

"Comrade Shunzhang will be the head of the delegation." Mao Zedong put down the cigarette in his hand, and interjected expressionlessly: "Shunzhang is an alternate member of the Politburo, and Comrade Bogu is only a member of the Central Committee."

Zhou Enlai had already seen the expressions of Wang Ming and Mao Zedong: "Okay, okay, let Comrade Shunzhang represent our party to negotiate with the Kuomintang." He left his seat and walked slowly around the conference table: " Comrade Zhang Xueliang is very crucial to the success or failure of our party's cause. The Kuomintang should also realize this, otherwise they would not tear themselves apart and do the kidnapping. So I estimate that the Kuomintang will pay a very high price for Zhang Xueliang's release. The price tag is estimated to involve negotiations on the final status of the two parties’ territories and the central governments of the North and the South after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. Do you have any suggestions for this?”

As soon as these words were uttered, there was another silence in the meeting room.The current situation facing the CCP can be said to be a dilemma. After Zhang Xueliang was kidnapped by the Kuomintang, the three regiments brought by the Northeast Army were not reliable and could not be used.After losing these three legions, the CCP's total military strength was only about 20, which was no longer enough to "go north to resist Japan" while defending Zhili, Beijing and Tianjin.The Northeast Anti-Japanese War is about to be decided. If the CCP misses this opportunity, the entire Northeast will be controlled by the Kuomintang!

"Give up Zhili and Beijing. Mongolia and Northeast China are the foundation of our future struggle for hegemony in the Central Plains." Mao Zedong stood up, waved his hand, and said imposingly: "Beijing City, Tianjin City, this fancy world, the KMT wants to give it to them Now, our party only wants the Northeast and Mongolia! I think this condition should be put forward in the negotiations. At the same time, our more than 20 Red Army will also march northward, via Mongolia to fight against Japan. We must take advantage of the favorable opportunity of Japan’s defeat in the Northeast to expand Our party's territory and armed forces strive to redify the entire Northeast!"

When he heard that Zhili and Beijing were about to be abandoned, Wang Ming's face tensed, and he wanted to shake his head subconsciously, but Mao Zedong quickly and hurriedly continued: "...if we don't give up Zhili and Beijing, we must The [-] troops were left behind, and these troops could not resist the attack of the Kuomintang army at all. In fact, they lost their territory and lost their troops! It is absolutely a foolish thing to kill themselves, and our party must never do it! Therefore, I suggest that the main force The Red Army and central authorities immediately leave Zhili Beijing and northern Shandong, and the central government can move to Baotou Special Zone. The defense of Zhili Beijing and northern Shandong is handed over to the local Red Army and Red Guards. At the same time, the underground party work in the above-mentioned areas must be arranged. In addition, it is necessary to mobilize a group of workers, peasants, and young students to settle in Inner Mongolia, where the land is vast and sparsely populated..."

Mifu was surprised when he heard the words, and quickly asked: "Are you going to mobilize workers and peasants from Zhili and northern Shandong to go to Mongolia? Are they Mongolian or Han?"

Mao Zedong was taken aback, and turned his head to look at Mifu: "They are mainly Han people. Now Mongolia has a very small population, less than 100 million, but the land has 150 million square kilometers. It is completely possible..."

"No, this is colonialism! We communists can't do this!" Miff frowned tightly.He knows that there are fewer Mongols and more Han people. Now there are at least 3000 to 200 million people in Zhili and northern Shandong. With the mobilization and organization capabilities of the CCP, it is entirely possible to immigrate millions or even [-] million in a short period of time. By then Mongolia But it is about to become dominated by Han people.

A tinge of lividness flashed across Mao Zedong's face, and he said coldly: "Mongolia has a population of less than 100 million, and all of them believe in Tibetan Buddhism. Their little Jebtsundamba is still being raised in the Luoyao country. If you don't move If the Han people passed by, we won’t be able to gain a foothold even if we conquer Mongolia.”

Mifu was taken aback, completely dumbfounded. It was the established state policy of the Soviet Union to separate Mongolia from China, but the Mongols disagreed. They believed in Jebtsundamba IX, the kid from the Luo Yao country, not Marx. Grandpa.And the small group of Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party who believed in Marx was killed by Wang Zhongyi in the past two years.Originally expecting the CCP to drive away Wang Zhongyi's forces, and then help the Mongolian people achieve independence, but Mao Zedong proposed to immigrate in large numbers...to turn the Han people into a majority on the Mongolian plateau!

……

Wuhan, East Lake.

On the European-style balcony of a two-story building belonging to the Military Intelligence Bureau on the bank of the East Lake, Zhang Xueliang leaned on the railing and made a look of looking fiercely.He was wearing a blue-gray Red Army uniform and an octagonal cap with red five-pointed stars on his head.His eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and his face was pale and gray, as if he was concerned about the country and the people.

On the balcony, there are tea tables and armchairs, and two cups of tea are emitting the fragrance of tea.Around the courtyard, there were rows and groups of gendarmes from the National Revolutionary Army, special agents from the Military Intelligence Bureau, and police from Wuhan City standing and sitting, densely surrounding the place.As for the entourage around Zhang Xueliang, except for Miss Zhao Si who was imprisoned here with him, none of them knew where they were imprisoned.But there is always no danger after all, right?The Kuomintang still seems to have the intention of wooing him, Zhang Xueliang, otherwise that Luo Yaoguo would not ignore the war in the Northeast and come to drink tea with him, right?

Thinking of this, Zhang Xueliang turned his head and glanced at Chief of Staff Luo Yaoguo Luo who was sipping tea with his head bowed.And Luo Yaoguo seemed to be paying attention to Zhang Xueliang's actions from the corner of his eyes. Seeing him turn around, he put down the teacup in his hand and nodded with a smile: "Brother Hanqing, are you still used to living here? East Lake is the best place for vacation in Wuhan." And a place to recuperate. Brother Hanqing will take a good rest here for a few days to recover his health. In the future, he will go to the Northeast to fight devils, and he will not be able to do without a good health."

Zhang Xueliang snorted angrily, turned his head and continued to look at the scenery.The Kuomintang brought Zhang Xueliang to Wuhan this time in the name of "abandoning the dark and turning to the bright", and did not say it was "arrest" or "kidnapping".But this Zhang Xueliang obviously didn't cooperate very much. Ever since he knew that he would not die, he looked ready to die generously all day long, and even found a Red Army uniform from his luggage that he didn't know if he had worn it.It's not appropriate to show this appearance to reporters, right?Therefore, Wu Ziliang of the Military Intelligence Bureau came up with a term of "vacation treatment", saying that this Zhang Xueliang was overworked and sick, so he had to take a vacation while he was on treatment. Delay General Zhang's condition.But looking at Zhang Xueliang's face, it seemed that he was seriously ill and would not live long.

"Brother Fuwen, I know my body." Zhang Xueliang looked in the direction of the northeast, pretended to cough twice, and then sighed: "I'm afraid it won't last long, I just want to go back to the northeast before I die, and see The appearance of my hometown is enough..."

Before he finished speaking, Luo Yaoguo raised his eyebrows, waved his hands and said with a smile: "Brother Hanqing, don't say such a thing, your body is strong, and there is no problem in living to a hundred years old." Standing up, walking to Zhang Xueliang, pointing to Dongbei, he smiled and said, "Now the CCP has agreed to make an excuse. Today, several trains loaded with weapons and equipment will leave for Huludao. And Tianjin will soon Come, it seems to be your wife Yu Fengzhi and Gu Shunzhang, an alternate member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China. Maybe we can reach an agreement with the Communist Party of China tomorrow, and you can return to the front line, command the Northeast Army to counterattack, and regain lost ground.”

Chapter 0577 Enemy, me, friends fight! ([-]) Undetectable traps

On February 25th, Xuangong Hotel in Hankou.

"General Zhang Hanqing proposed to get rid of bad habits after arriving in Wuhan. He is currently receiving treatment and taking a vacation at the place we arranged for him, so it is not convenient to meet with you. Of course, Mrs. Zhang is an exception. We will send a car to send Mrs. Zhang to Donghu immediately Reunited with General Hanqing."

What I was talking about was that after the KMT-CCP ​​talks resumed, the head of the Kuomintang delegation, the protagonist of this book, the Chief of Staff of the National Revolutionary Army, Vice Chairman of the Military Commission, and Marshal Luo Yaoguo, Vice Chairman of the Kuomintang.As in the past, Luo Yaoguo was wearing a neat military uniform, with a harmless smile on his face, sitting in an antique armchair, looking at Erlang's legs, holding a cup of fragrant and delicious coffee in his hand, of course Natalie brewed it herself.This curvaceous beauty, who is over thirty years old but still charming, is now also a member of the Kuomintang delegation. In addition, Zeng Qi, Sheng Shicai, He Zhonghan, and Deng Wenyi also participated in this delegation.

Sitting opposite them were representatives of the CCP (Northeast Army), Gu Shunzhang, Bogu, Duanna, Yu Fengzhi and others.As soon as the two parties met, Gu Shunzhang cut to the chase and asked to meet Zhang Xueliang.

"What kind of behavior are you doing? The two countries are not at war yet! How can you..." Hearing that Luo Yaoguo refused to allow the Communists to meet Zhang Xueliang, Comrade Bogu was immediately annoyed, and slapped the table and yelled loudly.

"We didn't kill Zhang Hanqing, but Zhang Hanqing was dissatisfied with you accepting the command of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, so he used this method to advise your party's central committee. As long as your party's central committee issues a statement to sever all ties with the Communist International and the Soviet Union, Zhang Hanqing The general will return to Beijing soon." Before Bogu could finish his sentence, Zeng Qi started to refute loudly.

"Despicable and shameless!" Bogu curled his mouth, his tone was very disdainful, and he just wanted to continue to refute.However, Luo Yaoguo snorted softly, and said coldly: "Everyone came from Beijing and Tianjin to feel that our Wuhan came, so it must be because of a quarrel with Mr. Zeng Muhan?"

"Of course not." Bogu glared at Zeng Qi fiercely, then stabilized his emotions, and turned his gaze to Luo Yaoguo: "Marshal Luo, our party strongly protests your kidnapping of Comrade Zhang Xueliang, and demands that you release Zhang Xueliang immediately. And solemnly apologize to our party and Comrade Zhang Xueliang."

Facing Bogu's accusation, Luo Yaoguo just sneered indifferently.Isn’t it because Chiang Kai-shek captured Zhang Xueliang from Xi’an? It’s not a big deal except that it’s a bit funny (Luo Yaoguo leaned forward and back with a smile). Anyway, the Kuomintang will not detain Zhang Xueliang for too long. of.

"General Zhang Hanqing has not lost his freedom. He is just undergoing vacation treatment. General Zhang is very ill and has a bad habit of smoking opium. Take advantage of this vacation opportunity to treat him and wait until his body recovers. We will naturally send him back to Tianjin." Luo Yaoguo's secretary-general, Sheng Shicai, saw that the master did not answer Bogu's question, so he took the topic over.Then he said:

"At present, the Jinpu Railway and the Beining Railway have resumed transportation, so the situation in the Northeast battlefield will soon be reversed, so the current top priority is to discuss the situation in post-war China in order to avoid a civil war of fratricide. Our party is concerned about the civil war One is opposed, and I hope that your party can also proceed from the fundamental interests of the Chinese nation to avoid the tragedy of civil war from happening again."

"Marshal Luo." Gu Shunzhang put down the coffee cup in his hand, and a smile appeared on his handsome face: "I don't know how your party wants to prevent China from falling into civil war after the war?"

Luo Yaoguo pondered for a while, Gu Shunzhang just looked at him quietly, and after a while, he heard Luo Yaoguo sigh: "The best way to avoid civil war is naturally a democratic constitutional government, let the ballot box rather than the barrel of a gun decide ownership of the regime."

This is the erroneous view that Luo Yaoguo has always insisted on. He has always believed that the emergence of political power from the barrel of a gun is actually a continuation of China's 2000-year history of dynastic change, and that the entire country and society are just undergoing a periodic cycle of destruction and revival!This process will not change because the ruler replaces the backward knives with modern guns, because advanced guns can only ensure that the regime will not be overthrown by the mob from the bottom, but there is no way for the careerists from the top. any effect.

"However, I also know that your party is not following the path of bourgeois democratization and liberalization. You are a dictatorship of the proletariat. Although you all want to kill me, a bourgeoisie, I still want to avoid civil war between you and me. The party broke out." Luo Yaoguo glanced at Gu Shunzhang and the others, then shook his head with a smile:

"Now all we can do is distribute the post-war benefits as reasonably as possible to delay the outbreak of the civil war. Mr. Gu, please tell us about your request."

"Before discussing the distribution of benefits after the war, shouldn't we first determine the situation before the war, and then discuss the benefits after the war on this basis?" Gu Shunzhang lit a cigarette, looked at Luo Yaoguo, and couldn't see what he had. said, and went on to say:

"Before the Japanese invaded, the Northeast was under the control of General Zhang Xueliang's Northeast Army, but now that General Zhang Xueliang has joined our party, the Northeast Army has also been reorganized into the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, so the Northeast should be counted as our party's sphere of influence; Similarly, Mongolia is also our party’s territory, Comrade Wang Zhongyi is a member of our party’s Politburo, and the Mongolian Front Army and later the Seventh Route Army are our party’s armed forces. I’m right about these two points, right?”

Gu Shunzhang noticed a smile on Luo Yaoguo's mouth, and he frowned slightly. He didn't know what Luo Yaoguo meant, whether it was ridicule or...

"However, considering that your party's National Revolutionary Army also made certain sacrifices in this Northeast War of Resistance and achieved good results, so our party can give up some sites to your party as a reward. These sites include Beijing, Zhili , Lubei. In addition, our party is now preparing to send troops to the Northeast for the second time, and I hope you can provide the necessary weapons and equipment and at least [-] tons of food."

After finishing speaking, Gu Shunzhang looked at Luo Yaoguo with his eyes wide open and his teeth gritted. The meaning was very clear. We have already made a big concession. Even the capital Beijing has been given over to you. Don't make any unreasonable demands.Luo Yaoguo didn't say anything immediately. The Communist Party would give up the three lands in Beijing, Zhili and Lubei in exchange for the Northeast. This had long been expected by him and Chiang Kai-shek.However, the Northeast cannot be completely given to the Communist Party. After all, the Nationalist Government has sent hundreds of thousands of troops and spent hundreds of millions of military expenditures. If even a province is not obtained in the end, Chiang Kai-shek and Luo Yaoguo will have no way to explain it.

"We want to get all the territories south of the Great Wall in the pass, including some territories in Chahar, Rehe, northern Shanxi, and northern Shaanxi." Luo Yaoguo thought about coming, and then slowly said: "In the northeast, we must at least get the two provinces of Liao and Jilin In addition, we can provide the [-] tons of grain your party needs, but we can't provide weapons and equipment. However, we can pay for the shares of your party's Shaanxi North Energy Company, and you can use this money to buy our weapons and equipment. In addition, Your party must give up the plan to establish a Soviet state, nor can it give Mongolia any form of autonomy or independence, nor can it interfere with the religion and living habits of the Mongolian nation, and it must not carry out any socialist transformation in Mongolia.”

Luo Yaoguo’s last mention of Mongolia’s ethnic and religious issues obviously had something to do with it. Gu Shunzhang was also very clear about the central government’s intentions. The request for food is also to resettle these immigrants; on the other hand, it wants to help the Mongolian people get rid of the spiritual control of Tibetan Buddhism, help them develop their own national culture, and establish their national consciousness.Luo Yaoguo obviously expected this, so he made these requests.

"On the Mongolian issue, our party will of course respect the wishes of the Mongolian people. You don't need to worry about this." Gu Shunzhang said coldly: "However, our party absolutely cannot accept the division of the Northeast!"

Luo Yaoguo smiled very coldly: "So far, how many troops does your party have in the Northeast? How many troops does our party have? Who will rely on to defeat the Japanese imperialists and regain the Northeast? Now your party wants the entire Northeast, right? Is your appetite a little too big?"
