Z Dong's words made the Central Committee members attending the meeting look at him. A rare solemnity appeared on Mao Z Dong's face, and a few patched gray military uniforms cage on his burly body reflecting the poverty in Yan'an. Mao Z Dong stood up, his thick palms clenched into fists.

"This is a conspiracy," Mao Zdong repeated, then looked up at his comrade: "If we accept this appointment, the New Fourth Army goes north to Henan, we must give up the bases opened in Jiangnan, and at the same time we must give up northern Jiangsu and northern Jiangsu. This is second, and more importantly, after General Zhu served as the commander of the First World War Zone, if the Japanese army attacked, will the New Fourth Army be used frontally or behind enemy lines? There are less than 20,000 New Fourth Army, and it will be completely destroyed in front of the battle and placed behind enemy lines.

Will other troops agree? And if the First War Zone fails, we will bear the main responsibility, which will seriously damage the people's confidence in our party. And the First War Zone cannot fail? It is entirely possible that the intelligence sent by Comrade Pan Hannian from Shanghai shows that after the Battle of Xuzhou, the Japanese army will launch a large increase in China, with a total force of up to 400,000. The main targets of the next war are likely to be the Fifth War Zone and the First War Zone. This is a conspiracy to push our Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army to fight head-on and destroy our party's prestige."

Mao Zdong said this and picked up a cigarette and lit it, took a sip, and then continued: "The analysis of the Yangtze River Bureau makes some sense. We can get something, but we lose more. The war zone commander can be appointed or revoked. The boss, the war zone commander, can be the last one for a year. What's more dangerous about this conspiracy is that we cannot directly refuse Jieshi to take such an important position. If we refuse directly, it will have a very bad political impact among the centrists. So what we need to do now is to find a suitable reason to take back Chiang Kai-shek himself."

"Are you still asking for our opinions? Can you ask Enn to tell Chen Cheng that I intend to transfer Mr. Zhu back to Yan'an to preside over military work. Is this okay?" Liu Sqi first made a suggestion.

"This is still our polite rejection, Chiang Kai-shek can also use it as an article." Chen Y expressed disagreement: "I think it is necessary to ensure that the weapons, ammunition and military pay of the War Zone will be guaranteed during the period when President Zhu became the commander of the War Zone. Chiang Kai-shek will definitely not want it, so that he will take back the order."

"This is a solution," Zhang Tian nodded: "I think this method is OK. Mao, what do you think?"

Mao Zdong shook his head. Since he saw through Jiang Shi's intentions, he had been thinking about the way to deal with it. He also thought about the way Chen Y said, but he soon found that it was not possible. Jiang Kaishi could agree, but he could also regret it after Zhu D took office. There were many excuses and it was more appropriate.

After hearing Mao Zdong, everyone was silent. The atmosphere in the cave was a little depressed. Zhang Wentian saw that his support was rejected, and he was not unhappy. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone often said that a hero has three helpers, and everyone can always find a solution."

Mao Zdong's eyes lit up and waved his big hand excitedly: "You have a good man and three helpers. We Communists will never be alone. Zhu De, as the commander of the First War Zone, must appoint Deng Yanda as the deputy commander or chief of staff."

The air in the cave immediately came to life, and everyone's faces were filled with smiles.

When Jihua heard this condition from Xuan Xiafu, he knew that it was a waste of time. Chiang Kai-shek could never accept this condition. The Communist Party and the Third Party were the two largest opposition parties. They could not even defend themselves. They dared to cooperate.

"Many local troops and the Central Army in the war zone. General Zhu needs one person to coordinate the relationship with these troops. Director Deng is the best candidate." Xuan Xiafu said seriously.

Zhuang Jihua smiled bitterly: "Sword Soul. You should know that General Zhu De's appointment as commander of the First War Zone is more beneficial than disadvantages. The New Fourth Army can form a horn with the Eighth Route Army in Henan and Shanxi, Hebei. In addition, it can also support the Shandong army in the future. What's wrong with this? Why refuse?"

Xuan Xia's father raised his eyebrows and wanted to refute it. But Zhuang Jihua didn't give him a chance: "The Ming people don't tell lies. Your condition is to refuse. To be honest, you only see the loss, but you don't see the gain. I can convince the Chairman to make this determination. I have spent a lot of effort. Since you don't want to..." Zhuang Jihua paused: "I will report to the Chairman truthfully and say goodbye."

After saying that, Zhuang Jihua turned around and left. Today he came to inform Xuan Xiafu about the investigation results of the incident in Guan Linzheng and Tang Enbo. However, he did not expect to get such a result. This disappointed him.

Guan Lin's annexation of the Communist Party's guerrillas was due to a misunderstanding. Guan Lin's land-selection vanguard troops seized a batch of Japanese helmets. The guerrillas mistakenly thought it was Japanese. These people were very brave and came to steal the camp at night. As a result, most of them were surrounded by Guan Lin. Guan Lin Zheng lost seven or eight people in this accident. This made him very annoyed. He dispersed the group of people into the army. It was considered compensation.

Tang Enbo was much simpler. He encountered a group of bandits led by the Communist Party. When these people saw a group of Japanese troops being pursued by Tang's troops, they fought. After the battle, Tang Enbo was very happy and organized them all into the army.

After the investigation was clear, the theater command asked Tang Enbo and Guan Linzheng to remove these people and return them to the Communist Party. However, the two of them said at the same time that these people lost all the losses in the battle of Mengyin. Guan Linzheng said it very miserably, saying that his vanguard troops were killed and none of them survived.

Xuan Xiafu probably knew that he could not get him back, and he did not force him. He just sneered, and then told Zhuang Jihua the decision he had sent from the central government, which disappointed Zhuang Jihua extremely.

Gong Xiuhua and Wu Ziniu followed Zhuang Jihua. Gong Zhuhua arrived in Xuzhou before Xuan Xiafu and Huang Mincheng. After arriving, she did not leave. She still served as Zhuang Jihua's secretary. Her work in Chongqing was handed over to Pan Huiqin.

After getting on the bus, Lu Ruishan started the car and Gong Xiuhua asked: "Why?"

The question of Gong Xiu painting is very simple, but this simple question contains many questions. Zhuang Jihua didn't say anything, and there was endless regret in his eyes. The car was walking slowly on the streets in Xuzhou City. The number of pedestrians on both sides increased significantly compared to a few months ago. Many shops opened were gradually prospering. The victory allowed Xuzhou to come out of the edge of death.

"They thought this was a conspiracy. If the New Fourth Army moved north, they would give up the base they opened in Jiangnan. In addition, Zhu De served as the commander of the war zone, and the New Fourth Army might be pushed to the frontal battlefield, which was exactly what they had been trying to avoid." Zhuang Jihua said slowly.

Gong Xiuhua's beautiful eyes and curved eyebrows frowned: "If this is the case, it makes sense for them to refuse."

"Anti-Japanese United Front," Zhuang Jihuawei said: "They ignored one problem, which is the principal's attitude. The principal is very afraid of the development of the Communist Party of China. He is already trying to change his mind to weaken them. I would like to make such a suggestion to regain the concerns in the principal's mind. If they accept it, I will have the next move for the principal, such as improving the equipment of the New Fourth Army and adding two divisions to the Eighth Route Army. But now there is no way to talk about this."

Zhuang Jihua sighed: "They only see the losses. In fact, accepting this appointment is not a big step in politics, but they can have a huge impact on the principal. In the long run, it has a huge impact on consolidating the anti-Japanese united front with the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party as the core. Unfortunately, their determination is too strong, and they only think about the disadvantages and the benefits."

The car fell silent, and Wu Ziniu said in a muffled voice: "Deputy Commander Ran and others are ungrateful, so don't care about them and don't believe them. Without them, we can't beat the Japanese out."

"Nonsense." Zhuang Jihua shook his head: "They are a huge force that can be ignored. With them behind enemy lines, the Japanese dare not push them to the front with all their might, so that the weakness of the Japanese army's insufficient military strength will be even more obvious. More importantly, it can avoid the breakdown of the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party and maintain the united front of the anti-Japanese war.

That's right!"

"The family management never refuses to give in unless there is greater benefit." Gong Zhuhua curled her lips disdainfully: ", don't worry about them anymore. I think the chairman already has an opinion on you."

"Oh," Wu Ziniu turned his head from the passenger seat: "Why? Just for this suggestion? The deputy commander has done so much for him, what else should he do?"

"Didn't you say that politicians have never only benefited, and he doesn't care what you did before. What he wants is the present and the future." Gong Zhuhua said angrily: "The principal's concern for Chongqing, unless he handed over all the Chongqing arsenal to him, sooner or later, the fuse may be gcdd. You can't care about them anymore, otherwise you will be in danger."

Zhuang Jihua did not answer. Gong Xiuhua came to Xuzhou and was the Chongqing group who was worried that he would make another million. Zhang Jingjiang also specially sent him a letter telling him that the Communist Party was Chiang Kai-shek's heart disease and his reverse scale. Although he was "happy" in cooperation with the Communist Party, he didn't care about it. Once the situation stabilized, the Communist Party's problems would come back to his heart. Now those who fought with the Communist Party are in trouble. Although Zhuang Jihua agreed with Zhang Jingjiang's judgment, he did not accept his advice. On the contrary, he faced difficulties and tried to resolve the conflict between the two sides through concessions. But the reality was that he failed again.

The war continued. After the Forty-Nine Army occupied Feicheng in Pingyin, it continued to detour towards Tai'an. Shangang Chonghou gave up the Taishan defense line and retreated. Lan Yundong acted quickly and cut off two brigades. Shangang Chonghou led the main force to escape from the encirclement.

Shortly after Shangang gave up Tai'an, Tang Enbo led the 85th Army to the side of Laiwu from the water and prepared to surround the 10th Division. The 10th Division is worthy of being the elite Japanese army. In this critical situation, the brigade leader of the 8th Brigade was long~Wuping led the 8th Brigade to fight hard, repel the 85th Army, and cover the main force of the division to withdraw from Laiwu and retreat to Jinan.
