Both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are the sons and daughters of China, but because of their different political stances, the two sides have fought for decades. Before demarcating the faction, many leaders and generals of the Kuomintang and Communist Party were friends for many years. Even though the Kuomintang and the Communist Party were fighting fiercely later, these friends were still secretly contacting each other and assisting each other.
An important medium for the struggle between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party is "spy". The Kuomintang and the Communist Party sent each other spies to steal each other's intelligence. Once, the Kuomintang veteran Feng Yuxiang asked Zhou Enlai: Who is the Communist Party by my side? After hearing this, Zhou Enlai did not hesitate too much and told him directly and truthfully.
When the spy war situation is tense and if you are not careful, the spy's life will be hanging on the line, why would Zhou Enlai tell the truth?
In order to jointly fight against Japan, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party met many times
Before the Japanese army invaded China, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party were in a state of chaotic struggle at home. In the eyes of the well-equipped Kuomintang, the Communist Party is just an "opposition party" born in the countryside. But as the struggle continues to deepen, the situation of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party has quietly changed. After the July 7 Incident , the Japanese invaders officially declared war on China. In order to unite against the enemy, we work together to fight against foreign invaders. The Kuomintang and the Communist Party stopped internal struggle and joined forces to establish the anti-Japanese national united front .
At that time, because Chiang Kai-shek refused to accept the proposal to establish an anti-Japanese national united front, senior Kuomintang generals Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng launched military rebellion in Xi'an and jointly forced Chiang to fight against Japan, which was known in history as the " Xi'an Incident ". After the Xi'an Incident, Chiang Kai-shek was under house arrest and the Kuomintang was forced to cooperate with the Communist Party. At this time, the true anti-Japanese national united front was officially established.

1938, Comrade Zhou Enlai, a senior leader of our party, rushed to different regions many times to hold talks with senior leaders of the Kuomintang, and discuss ways to fight against the Japanese army. These talks were of great significance to promoting the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party at that time, and also laid a solid foundation for the Communist Party to win over outstanding comrades of the Kuomintang to change their camps in the later period.
The talks between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are usually attended by veterans from both camps. Both sides want to occupy an advantageous position for the results of the talks. Therefore, the talks were also particularly exciting.
Once, the Kuomintang sent Feng Yuxiang and others to hold talks with Zhou Enlai. Before this, Feng Yuxiang and Zhou Enlai also had some intersections in their daily lives, so the two were not unfamiliar with each other.
asked bluntly and responded calmly to
During this meeting on the court, Zhou Enlai and Feng Yuxiang not only communicated their opinions on the current situation at the venue, but also communicated many times in private.
Their meetings can be discussed, and some questions cannot be discussed. But Feng Yuxiang inadvertently raised a question that made the Communist Party very embarrassing. Feng Yuxiang asked bluntly: Who is the Communist Party by my side? Questions like
are a very sensitive and embarrassing topic during the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. No matter how the other party answers, it seems that it is difficult to alleviate this embarrassing situation, and may even undermine the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.
If there is any answer, then the lives of the underground staff of our party are worrying and they are likely to make unnecessary sacrifices. If the answer is not answered, the Kuomintang, represented by Feng Yuxiang, will definitely not believe it, and may even feel that the Communist Party is hypocritical. If we keep silent, the other party will think that we are evading the problem and have no sincerity to talk.
For this reason, many people sweated coldly. Just when everyone was anxious to get angry, Zhou Enlai spoke. Zhou Enlai answered Feng Yuxiang truthfully based on the situation he had: "I am not very clear at present whether there are underground workers of our party around you. After I go back, I can only give you an accurate answer."
Feng Yuxiang knew that Zhou Enlai was evading him, so he gave him a face and stopped asking other questions. This incident was like an inconsistency episode, and no one mentioned it again after the meeting, and some people quickly forgot about it.
What was unexpected was that after Zhou Enlai returned to Yan'an, he really fulfilled his promise and conducted a thorough investigation into this matter. After the investigation results came out, Zhou Enlai made an appointment with Feng Yuxiang to communicate with him in-depth about his current situation and insights and what he learned through investigation.
Conquering all kinds of talents with heroic nature
After that communication, Feng Yuxiang was completely conquered by Zhou Enlai's personality charm. Just from this incident, Feng Yuxiang firmly believed that Zhou Enlai was a dignified and worthy of his friendship. is a friend of this person, so there will definitely be no situation where you stab the knife in the back.
Later, Zhou Enlai and Feng Yuxiang had many more exchanges. The deeper the communication, the more Feng Yuxiang admires Zhou Enlai's courage.
In the middle and late stages of the Liberation War, there were many senior Kuomintang generals like Feng Yuxiang who were impressed by Zhou Enlai's personal charm, such as Kuomintang general Zhang Zhizhong, Huang Yanpei , one of the main initiators of the China Democratic League, etc. They were all advanced figures who contributed to the cause of New China under Zhou Enlai's strong persuasion.
Zhou Enlai is a leader with extraordinary persuasion. He knows how to change his persuasion methods based on people. Sometimes he talks long and sometimes he doesn't say a word, sometimes he is tempted by temptation, sometimes he just takes out an item to impress the other person. Zhou Enlai has extremely high emotional intelligence, and he knows how to grasp people's hearts best.
In Zhou Enlai's work, he insisted on convincing people with reason. He made good friends throughout his life and persisted in conveying a thought to his comrades around him: be kind and sincere to those who are not hypocritical.
Forever, Zhou Enlai's sincerity and heart-to-heart talk have become his symbol. Many people met and communicated with Zhou Enlai, and were all conquered by his grand pattern and personal charm.
Premier Zhou once said: If you want to turn the awareness of leaders and the wisdom of leaders into the power of the masses, you need to have a process of education and persuasion, and sometimes you need to go through a process of waiting and wait for the enlightenment of the masses.
Zhou Enlai's statement has profound guiding significance and is still regarded as a guideline by party insiders. Comrade Zhou Enlai has a clear conscience in his work, the party, the country and society. Such a great man is worth remembering forever by future generations.
Summary:
Heroes are rare, and it is even more difficult to gather the heroes together to fight for a common dream. However, in the process of building the Communist Party and building a new China, Zhou Enlai has recruited all kinds of talented people and talents for the construction of all parties of our party with his strong persuasion and personal charm. Not only that, Zhou Enlai's elegant and elegant manner also made the world remember China's decency.
