Yu Xuezhong's Northeast Army is not a direct line of Chiang Kai-shek, and has always been in conflict with Chiang. Li Xianzhou graduated from Whampoa Phase I, is an absolute direct line of Chiang Kai-shek, and actively pursues Chiang Kai-shek's "passive anti-Japanese and active anti-communist" policy. Before entering Shandong, Li Xianzhou began to dig into Xuezhong's walls. He sent people to contact the local power factions in Shandong under the jurisdiction of Xuezhong, and appointed officials to take them over and make use of them. Yu Xuezhong originally had opinions on the entry of Li Xianzhou into Lu, and he was even more dissatisfied to see Li being so unkind. Therefore, he tit-for-tat, let Mu Zhongheng, in the name of the chairman of the Shandong Provincial Government, organize all the small local armed forces in Shandong into the security team of the county and the special department, so that Li Wuxia can take advantage. On the other hand, the Zhang Buyun Division of the Second Division of Shandong Security Division, who frequently sent surprises to Li Xianzhou, carried out military crusades.
Starting from the overall situation of the anti-Japanese national united front, the Communist Party of China did not strongly oppose Li Xianzhou's entry into Shandong at first. The Shandong Branch of the Communist Party of China once issued the "Instructions on the United Front Work after Li Xianzhou's Department Came to Shandong", stating that "Li Xianzhou's entry into Shandong has two sides to the enemy and me. Our countermeasure is: emphasizes dredging unity and encouraging and promoting them to resist Japan. For non-friendly behaviors, we use political struggles. When is a last resort, don't easily counterattack." The Lunan District Committee of the Communist Party of China also made a decision to require all localities to make preparations and welcome Li Xianzhou to join Lu to resist Japan. The issuance of this instruction embodies the magnanimity and mind of the Chinese Communists, and shows that the Party and the Eighth Route Army under its leadership proceed from the overall situation and persist in uniting with the Kuomintang to fight against the war and the sincerity of saving the country.
However, Li Xianzhou pursues a reactionary policy of "handling the Communist Party first, then dealing with the enemy and the puppet". In early 1943, Li Xianzhou threw stones to ask for directions, and first ordered Lu Kezhen, the commander of the 30th Division, to lead a regiment of the North-Vietnam Longhai Railway to establish a foothold between the north of Dangshan Mountain and Weishan Lake. Li Xianzhou saw Lu Kezhen stop standing, and then led the main force across the Longhai Railway and entered Luxi. And through the local surrender faction to contact the enemy in an attempt to obtain the enemy's understanding. However, in order to strengthen the control of Shandong, the Japanese army did not regard Li Xianzhou as an friendly army, especially to quell the anxiety caused by Li's entry into Shandong in the puppet army. After Li Bu arrived in Shan County, the Japanese army gathered more than 1,000 troops to cooperate with cars and tanks to attack Li Bu. During the fierce battle, Li Bu suffered serious casualties and had to move to the west of Weishan Lake overnight. The troops of the Eighth Route Army's Hebei-Luyu Military Region attacked the Japanese from the flanks, cooperated with them, cleaned the wounds of the wounded officers and soldiers, changed their dressings, and then sent them back to their original troops on a stretcher. The "Luxi Daily" also published an editorial in a warm and friendly manner, expressing condolences to the 92nd Army who fought fiercely with the Japanese army.
Li Xianzhou not only didn't appreciate and understand the actions of the Eighth Route Army, but instead believed that he was deliberately shaking his military spirit and treated the Eighth Route Army's friendly attitude with very unfriendly behavior. In early March, after Li Xianzhou ordered Liu Chunling of the 1st and 42nd Division to enter Lunan, he colluded with the local surrendering faction Shen Congzhou. Instead of accepting the welcome of the anti-Japanese democratic government, he attacked the militia for no reason and then attacked the logistics organs of the Lunan Military Region of the Eighth Route Army. At the same time, he also colluded with the bandit leader Liu Guitang to deal with the Eighth Route Army together. In order to defend the anti-Japanese people, the Lunan Military Region of the Eighth Route Army was forced to send troops to fight back.
In June 1943, the Communist International was formally dissolved. In China, the Kuomintang took advantage of the theme to clamor for "disbanding the Communist Party", mobilizing its forces to attack the CCP base areas, setting off an anti-Communist climax, attempting to occupy the anti-Japanese base areas established by the Communist Party of China and destroy the Communist Party and the Eighth Route Army.
In June, Chiang Kai-shek gave Yu Xuezhong a power generation, and ordered that "you will come to Lu, otherwise you will be punished by military law!" and the Ministry of Li Xianzhou replaced the Ministry of Yu Xuezhong to occupy the Yilu Mountain and Zhu (city) Sun (Zhao) Ju (county) ) Mountain area.
Received a telegram from Chiang Kai-shek, Yu Xuezhong felt that he could no longer fight hard. He said to Mou Zhongheng, Chairman of the KMT Shandong Provincial Government at the headquarters of the Lu-Su war zone: "This telegram is sent by Chiang Kai-shek. It is also difficult for the Shandong provincial government to stay in southern Shandong alone, and must also travel to Shandong with them." Yu and Mou decided to leave Shandong together.
There are two ways and possibilities for Yu Xuezhong to leave Lu. One is to follow the principle of changing the defense of the troops. After Li Xianzhou enters Lu, Yu Xuezhong gives his defense area to Li, and then evacuates. One is not waiting for Li Xianzhou's troops to enter Lu, and Yu will lead his troops to withdraw by themselves. According to the former method, the Kuomintang troops still have to come in, and the situation in Shandong will be more complicated; according to the latter method, the Eighth Route Army may reject the Kuomintang troops abroad. Then Shandong would have no regular Kuomintang army, and the Communist Party of China would be able to concentrate its efforts against Japan. Therefore, how Yu Xuezhong led his troops out of Shandong directly affected the overall situation of Shandong, which was an important issue of great concern to the Chinese Communist Party at that time. But exactly how he got out of Shandong was not clear to all sectors of the military and politics in Shandong at that time.
In order to understand Yu Xuezhong's situation and to analyze and judge how he will leave Shandong, Luo Ronghuan, commander of the Shandong Military Region, approached Guo Weicheng, who had previously worked in the Northeast Army, and asked them their views on Xuezhong's departure from Shandong. Guo told Luo Ronghuan that Yu Xuezhong resolutely advocated resistance to Japan, which was true during the September 18th Incident, the North China Incident, and the Xi'an Incident. This is affirmative. He was always dissatisfied with Chiang Kai-shek's policy on the anti-Japanese issue. After Yubu was forcibly transferred to the northwest by Chiang Kai-shek in 1935, he has maintained friendly relations with the Communist Party. He has repeatedly said in private: The Communist Party has no grudge against me, and Chiang Kai-shek has hatred against me! He was forced to leave Lu this time, and he probably left before Li Xianzhou came in.
Luo Ronghuan very much agreed with this view. He said that the Kuomintang did not trust the Northeast Army, so Yu and Li had to change defenses. According to common sense, Yu should wait for Li to come before leaving, but if Yu Xuezhong is more beautiful, it is better not to wait for Li to come and pat his butt and leave. This is beneficial to us. If Yu Xuezhong really patted his butt and left, if he could leave Lu in such a beautiful way, , our Eighth Route Army, promised not to shoot one shot and would leave the country as a gift.
Soon, the Shandong Branch of the Communist Party of China and the Shandong Military Region intend to make a decision: not to restrain the (Xuezhong) Department from opening west, and under certain conditions, provide convenience and gift to the country. The Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee agreed to this policy. To reiterate: resolutely unites with friendly people, tries to neutralize those who are stubborn and has not attacked me yet, and resolutely counterattacks those who attack me. This is how you deal with the Kuomintang troops.
