Rebirth from the Ashes: Rebuilding the Red Soviet Area

Political Commissar Fang continued, "Just when everyone was arguing..."

"Someone just took out a thick document"

"It records all the disciplinary violations committed by the Red 24th Division."

“There are more than 20 items listed.”

"Why don't you turn over the seized goods?"

"What do you mean by privately distributing military pay?"

The political commissar paused.

He said to Li Yan: "Among these five most serious crimes..."

"The hair is pointed directly at you"

"First, Li Yan did not follow regulations to reuse the Kuomintang prisoner Zhang Dong."

"The second thing is that after occupying the city, Li Yan violated discipline."

"Ordered the mass killing of prisoners and landlords, using brutal means"

"Second, Li Yan colluded with the 19th Route Army without the permission of Organization D."

“Caused our army to lose soldiers and territory”

"They also released Kuomintang prisoners of war privately"

"The third case is that Li Yan secretly colluded with the local evil force Red Gate."

"Fourth, Li Yan, as the head of a division, left his division alone and went to the United States without authorization."

“Once this document comes out”

"More than half of the people in the Soviet District Branch have made clear their stance"

"Not only will you be removed from your position as division commander, you will also be expelled from the party."

“Even some radicals”

"You are unscrupulous in your actions, which is not just a violation of military discipline."

“It’s a matter of right and wrong.”

"I'm going to shoot you straight away"

"Leaders Zhang, Tan, and Deng tried their best to explain for you at the meeting."

"In extraordinary times, do extraordinary things"

"And use your D-ness to guarantee that everything you do is for the reconstruction of the Soviet area."

“It’s a pity that we are so weak.”

"In the end, it was Mr. Chen who stood up."

"I will protect you"

"As if you were not here"

"Another senior cadre of mine."

"You cannot be punished based solely on one side's words."

“Let’s put this matter on hold for now.”

Speaking of which

Political Commissar Fang looked at Li Yan's expression.

He said again: "Later, this matter was reported to the Red 24th Division."

"Old squad leaders Lu Zhiguo, Zhang Dong, Zhao Wu, and Su Shan personally went to Sannan"

"Explain for you"

"Zhang Dong even requested his superiors"

"Remove his position as commander of the 4th Independent Division and expel him from the military."

"To protect you"

“But how could the Soviet District Branch agree?”

"The old squad leader was furious"

"I slammed the table directly at the ZY branch in the Soviet area"

"For this, the old squad leader and his men were also punished by the Soviet District Branch."

"Later, everyone in the Southwest Fujian Military Region knew about this incident."

"Begin to secretly cooperate with the Soviet District Branch and the Gan-Yue Border Military Region"

"Cause friction and quarrels"

"Even when providing supplies, weapons and ammunition to the Soviet District Bureau and the Gan-Yue Border Military Region"

“There are all kinds of restrictions.”

"If it weren't for the mediation of the three leaders Zhang, Tan, and Deng, as well as General Chen,

"Perhaps people from the two military regions might start fighting."

Gao Xuan, who had already returned to his seat

He said coldly: "If you want me to say it"

“We should cut off their support.”

Li Yan glared at Gao Xuan fiercely: "What nonsense!"

Gao Xuan didn't dare to talk back

Li Yan lit a cigarette in annoyance.

Political Commissar Fang continued: "This kind of uncalm behavior..."

"Let the people in the Soviet District Branch think that this is coercion"

“No compromise”

"And determined to punish you"

“This directly escalated the conflict between the two sides.”

Gao Xuan and Song Tao also understood the seriousness of the problem at this time.

Opened his mouth

I don't know what to say

Political Commissar Fang said: "Just when things reached a stalemate..."

“The problem has taken a turn”

“As things develop”

"The people of Xunwu Sannan also know the inside story of the matter"

"They are grateful to you for ordering the massacre of prisoners and landlords."

“Avenged them”

“At the same time, I am grateful for what you said at that time.”

"Everyone has no ability to protect themselves one day"

"I, Li Yan, will not leave for a day"

"This sentence gave them a sense of security and the belief in self-improvement."

"The common people are speaking up for you."

"Every time I see people from the Soviet District Branch and the Gan-Yue Border Military Region"

“It’s all cynicism.”

“And they were ungrateful.”

“Even some people”

"Just tell their children not to join the Red Army"

"This incident made the people in the Soviet District Branch

“It has aroused vigilance and attention”

“They started investigating.”

"The results of the survey show that"

"More than 20 charges on the document"

“A lot of it is just hearsay.”

“But some of the charges were proven.”

"It really violated the discipline of our Red Army"

"The Soviet District Branch also realized that its previous judgment was wrong."

“But since things are out of control.”

"General Chen reported these matters to the Central Committee."

Political Commissar Fang took another deep breath and said, "This has been jointly decided by the Central Committee and the Soviet Area ZY Branch."

"The 24th Red Division made great contributions to the restoration of the Soviet area"

"Comrade Li Yan repeatedly violated military and party discipline"

"Should have been expelled from the military"

"But there are reasons for this, and there are other significant meritorious performances."

"Remove Comrade Li Yan from his position as commander of the 24th Red Army Division"

"Retain Comrade Li Yan's Party membership"

"Old squad leaders Lu Zhiguo, Zhang Dong, Zhao Wu, Su Shan and other comrades"

"Violation of Soviet District Bureau's Order"

"Under Party warning"

"In addition, the Central Committee also specifically instructed the Soviet Area ZY Branch Bureau"

"Without causing any friction with the national army"

“Whatever the cost”

Rescue Li Yan

Li Yan, Song Tao, and Gao Xuan all gasped.

They also fell silent

They didn't expect

So many things happened at home during this period.

Still full of twists and turns

After a while

Li Yan stood up and said, "Political Commissar Fang"

"I, Li Yan, obey the orders of my superiors"

Gao Xuan and Song Tao also stood up immediately

Shouted: "Commander"

Li Yan waved his hand and said: "Some of the things I did in the past"

“It’s definitely inappropriate.”

"That's how the superiors handled it"

“We have been given a break.”

Political Commissar Fang listened to Li Yan's words

A heavy sigh of relief

Relieved

Li Yan looked at Political Commissar Fang

He smiled and said, "Lao Fang"

"Say it"

“Who taught you these words?”

Political Commissar Fang also laughed out loud: "I told you I couldn't hide it from you."

"Old Li"

"Don't blame me for this"

"It was the three leaders Zhang, Tan, and Deng, and General Chen, who told me to do this."

“They said they had just experienced the Xi’an Incident.”

"People across the country are calling for opposition to civil war and unity to fight against Japan together."

"them"

......

Li Yan smiled and said, "The three leaders are worried that I won't be able to figure it out, right?"

Political Commissar Fang smiled

Li Yan said: "Speaking of which..."

“When I found out I was fired”

“I really can’t figure it out.”

"but"

“The Soviet Area Has Come to This Day”

“Too many comrades have sacrificed their lives.”

“It’s not easy.”

"In addition, the Japanese invaders are still determined to destroy China."

"I, Li Yan, can still clearly distinguish between what is important and what is not."

“I can’t do it because of myself.”

“Destroy the current good situation”

"Otherwise, I, Li Yan, will be the eternal sinner of China."

Political Commissar Fang also nodded heavily

Then he smiled and said, "Lao Li"

“You guessed one thing wrong.”

"The three leaders and General Chen are not worried at all that you can't figure it out."

"They are reluctant to let you leave the Soviet area"

Before Li Yan could react

He Ming, who had been silent,

He smiled and took out two letters from his pocket

He handed it to Li Yan and said, "Brother, this is a letter from my uncle and teacher to you."
