Anecdotes and allusions
On May 5, 1936, the Communist Party of China issued "armistice, peace negotiation and unified Anti Japanese communication" to the Kuomintang government, which changed the policy of "Anti Japanese and anti Jiang" into the policy of "forcing Jiang to resist Japan". On August 25, the CPC Central Committee sent a letter to the KMT, calling once again for an end to the civil war and the establishment of an anti Japanese national united front. During this period, Mao Zedong made unremitting efforts to expand the united front and win more people. He wrote letters to many KMT generals to win their support. Among them is Zhu Shaoliang.
Contents of Mao Zedong's letter to Zhu Shaoliang:
Mr. Shaoliang
After ten years of fierce fighting, I met my husband everywhere. It can be said that I have a good chance! However, the snipe and the clam are in a stalemate, and the fisherman is waiting on their side. Is it not also dangerous for the snipe and the clam? To hand in the letter sent by the Communist Party to the Kuomintang, to seek for the country and the nation, as well as for your husband. Between the two parties and the armed forces, there is no fixed injustice, and they have the responsibility to help each other in the same boat. In order to deal with the common enemy, Mr. Shisong is a national hero in the world. Isn't he more like Hu Zong Nan Jun's so-called "life imprisonment"? "Suppressing bandits" is not only life imprisonment, but also death penalty. It was not the Red Army that declared the death penalty for the gentlemen, but the Japanese imperialists that declared the death penalty for a certain part of the Chinese people. They wanted to declare the death penalty for the whole nation! If you agree to the United Front, I will welcome it wholeheartedly. However, if the matter is handled in an urgent way, it will be beneficial to the long-term invaders. Shang Qi paid tribute to Mr. Jiang and made a decision immediately. State affairs can still be done. words cannot express all one intends to say. respectfully yours
Hoon Kei!
Mao Ze Dongqi
