1932: Playing with the Japanese Communist Party with a doll

"Commander Matt...um, I'm here to report something to you." "Oh, go ahead."

UMP45 didn't correct He Zizhen's address, and the latter's expression darkened. Comrade Shiwu, she's really angry.

No, I must find a way to help the party organization save this situation.

Thinking of this, He Zizhen straightened his face and began to earnestly report the collective decision made by the top leaders of the Chinese Communist Party after intense discussion last night:

1. Temporarily remove Zhang Guotao from all his posts and place him under house arrest. Simultaneously, immediately dispatch personnel to Peking and the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet Area to investigate and collect evidence.

2. In the name of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, an order was issued to all Soviet areas to release all those detained in connection with the anti-counterrevolutionary movement. Even if there was "clear evidence," no further physical persecution of any kind was permitted.

3. Reflect on and summarize the various mistakes made during the anti-counterrevolutionary campaigns of recent years, investigate individual organizational leaders, and rehabilitate those who were harmed or even killed, erecting monuments and recording them in Party history as a warning;

4. Organize...

He Zizhen read out one "corrective measure" after another.

Each time she read a sentence, she would lift her eyelids to secretly observe UMP45's reaction, but she could not see anything. In the end, the other party even simply concluded with a simple sentence:

"Oh, I see." "...Officer Matt." "Hmm?"

"Do you think... is it okay to do this?"

"This is a decision you made yourself. You should be responsible for it, not asking me." "No...that...we want to hear your..."

"The CCP is the CCP's CCP. Why do you have to ask me, an outsider, whether I'm doing a good job?" "Uh... Agent Matt, you're not an outsider, you're..."

“I know what you mean, but our SRP’s attitude has always been to offer advice, support, and guidance, but we will not easily help you directly, let alone

Interfering with your decision-making."

"...You're not angry?"

"Why should I be angry?" UMP45 tilted her head and asked:

"The commander's mission for me is to help the CCP grow into a mature party as quickly as possible. Setbacks and mistakes are also a form of growth, and you've also demonstrated your ability to correct your mistakes. Why should I be angry?"

He Zizhen stared at UMP45's calm expression for a long time before confirming that she wasn't angry. Deng Yingchao then interjected, probing further:

"Comrade Special Envoy, could you please go to Fuyin Hospital today to give us some guidance? Director Fu has been wanting to discuss polio and wound infections with you in depth, and has asked me several times." "Yes, no problem, but I remember that I first need to discuss some issues with Comrade Xiang Yin and Comrade Wu Hao today, so..."

UMP45's nonchalant attitude finally reassured the two female comrades sent by the men behind them to communicate. Fortunately, it seemed that Comrade Ma Shiwu was simply discussing the matter yesterday, with no hidden agenda, and certainly not disappointed with the CCP. Last night, the beautiful special envoy's furious demeanor genuinely frightened everyone in the CCP.

There's nothing wrong with getting angry. The key point is that the criticism was well-founded and pointed out some people's little thoughts and past scandals. No one had the courage to argue with them, including Li Desheng.

Although he wasn't criticized much, given his bad temper, the fact that he tolerated it and didn't criticize back says it all: he knew he was wrong!

After He and Deng brought back the news, Li Desheng, Wu Hao, General Zhu, Xiang Yin, and other central leaders remained silent for a long time before someone sighed deeply: "This is truly a... pure communist fighter..."

Then, everyone, who had been tired for several nights and had suffered a great blow yesterday, finally relaxed their guard and fell asleep. They were dragged back to their rooms by their wives and guards.

In the following days, UMP45 continued to run around as usual, discussing theories with this person and guiding work with that person, as if the "outburst" that night had never happened.

On March 17, Li Desheng suddenly came to her with a serious face and said, "Comrade Shiwu, the special envoy of the Communist International has arrived in Changting." "Oh, who came with him?"

"And Comrade Bogu."

"Yeah, I got it."

"...Commander Matt, you... you're not worried?" "Why should I be worried?"

UMP45 put down her pen and chatted with the deeply enlightened Deng Fa for a few more words before she smiled. "You're just worried about me and them getting into trouble. Actually, it's a very easy thing to do. There's no need to worry at all." "What?"

"If the Soviets, like us, had the same goal of achieving a communist revolution throughout the world, then they wouldn't mind the existence of me and the World Revolutionary Party. "Because the support the Soviets give you is to support your revolution, isn't the support I give you also for the revolution in China?"

"Opposing the CCP's strengthening and the early liberation of the Chinese people—what a dirty mindset that is!"

"..."

Li Desheng's eyes lit up.

In the evening, the Central Bureau of the Soviet Area held a brief welcome party for the new "Comintern Special Envoy" and brought Bo Gu along.

"...This is Otto Braun, whose Chinese name is Li De. He is the military adviser of the Communist International to our Chinese Communist Party. Let's give him a warm welcome!" There was applause, and some people even clapped their hands very hard, as if they had gained strength from Li De's arrival.

UMP45 hid in a corner, silently watching the smiling Bo Gu and Li De "perform" on stage, and sighed inwardly. Is this the power of world line correction?

Bo Gu, who was originally scheduled to arrive in Shanghai in June 1932 and enter the Central Soviet Area in September 1933, unexpectedly arrived anyway, and arrived so early. Could it be that he was still expected to join certain people in disrupting the Red Army?

Shouldn't it be anymore?

At least it won't be that easy.

The seeds that the commander planted in the hearts of the CCP members and the confidence that the "World Revolutionary Party" gave them should not be so useless.

Forget it, let's listen to the commander. If the CCP insists on going through this, and insists on using the blood of hundreds of thousands of people as the price of growth, then there's no way to stop it, right?

UMP45, who was hiding in the corner, had no intention of interfering with Li De and Bo Gu's affairs. She just came to check the situation and record the brain wave data. However, Bo Gu did not intend to let her go.

After giving a basic introduction to Li De and emphasizing his "military advisory status" and the "Comintern's importance to him," Bo Gu suddenly whispered something to Li De, then pointed at UMP45 and shouted:

"Guard!"

? ? ?

"Catch this reactionary!"

Everyone looked at Bogu in astonishment, but no one moved. Seeing that the leaders had not issued any orders, the guards retracted their heads. Wu Hao's face was grim:

"Comrade Bogu, what do you want to do?"

"What do I want to do? I also want to ask you what you want to do?!" Bo Gu said angrily:

"This reactionary led others to attack our Shanghai Central Committee and tortured our leading comrades. Not only did you not eliminate her, you even dared to continue to contact this reactionary party!" "What do you want to do? Are you trying to betray the Soviet Union, the Communist International, and the Party Central Committee?"

".."

The speech was well-reasoned and convinced some people.

The three words "Soviet Union", "Communist International" and "Party Central Committee", coupled with the gloomy look of Li De, "Special Envoy of the Communist International and New Military Adviser of the Chinese Communist Party", made some participants feel shaken.

Yes, after all, we were an agency of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (yes, many people really thought so at the time), so we rashly contacted foreign parties without their consent.

Isn't it a bit too...

As for those who had always opposed the SRP, had been slapped in the face in the past two days, or had not had much conversation with UMP45 before yesterday, they puffed out their chests and prepared to side with Bo Gu. After all, he was the true "head" of the entire Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.

Staring at them, UMP45 popped out from the wall and walked slowly in front of Bo Gu and Li De. He stared at them for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled and said in a cold tone, "Who told you that you can represent the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China?"

"Who told you that Li De could represent the Communist International?"

127 Where is the Shanghai Central?

"Who told you that you can represent the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China?"

"Who told you that Li De could represent the Communist International?

As soon as these two sentences came out, everyone on the Chinese Communist Party side felt a little confused.

what do you mean?

Bo Gu does not represent the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, so what does he represent? Li De is not a special envoy of the Communist International, so what else is he? Only two people's faces changed.

One is Wu Hao, and the other is Bo Gu himself who was questioned.

As for Li De, he couldn't understand Chinese and was now confused. Bo Gu's pupils shrank slightly, but he forced himself to remain calm and said:

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you understand what I mean?"

UMP45's smile is like a beautiful yet terrifying devil:

"Comrade Wu Hao and Wang Ming have both instructed you, right? Even if you serve as the temporary head of the Central Committee, you must report this matter if the Central Committee members gather together. Have you forgotten?" "!!!"

Everyone looked at Bogu in astonishment. Huh?

what?

Is he just the temporary chief executive? Isn't he the "general secretary"?

Although most people were not convinced, this was the order of the Communist International, so they had to obey it. Everyone looked at Wu Hao again, who was silent for a few seconds and admitted:

I'm not sure what Comrade Wang Ming said, but my original words were, "Localities with a large number of Central Committee members should report this temporary status," because Comrade Bo Gu was neither a member of the Central Committee nor a member of the Politburo. (At the Fourth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee, Bo Gu was designated a member of the Central Committee, but a considerable number of participating Party members refused to acknowledge him. A fierce conflict ensued, triggering the "first separate Central Committee incident" in history.)

(At this meeting, Wu Hao and others were severely criticized for their "conciliationism", but because Wang Ming really had no prestige, Mif finally adopted the policy of "keeping Zhou and rejecting Qu"

Kick out Qu Qiubai, Luo Zhanglong and others, and let Wu Hao "stand on the bench with his crime"

achievement")

UMP45 then "accuses" Bogu:

"So, now, except for those who sacrificed their lives, the few who could not come, and those who did not come, the original members of the Central Committee and the original members of the Central Political Bureau are basically here, and the alternate members are also here. What gives you the right to continue to represent the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China?" Hehe, it seems that Wang Ming's revelation at the enlarged meeting of the Political Bureau in September 1941, when Wu Hao was not present at the meeting, that "I had asked Bo Gu to hand over power immediately after entering the Soviet area" was completely playing word games! It's just the difference between "reporting" and "handing over power".

However, historically, Bogu himself was frank enough to directly admit his lust for power—he never had the concept of a temporary central government or handing it over.

".."

Bo Gu looked grim and was speechless.

In fact, this was the reason why he had to come to the Central Soviet Area even though he did not receive any notice, and it was also the reason why he lacked confidence.

Like Wang Ming, he was one of those people who had almost no foundation in the Party and was forced to rise to power by certain people in the Comintern (Mifu, Wang Ming, etc.). Even he himself did not expect to be able to become the so-called "General Secretary" (actually a temporary person in charge) at the beginning.

He could hide in Shanghai for a long time and pretend that no one knew about it. However, after arriving in the Soviet area, he was exposed and his "legal identity" was instantly stripped away.

Because, not to mention most (past and present) members and alternate members of the Central Committee, even most (past and present) members of the Central Political Bureau and alternate members of the Central Political Bureau have come to the Soviet area!

Bo Gu had intended to use this identity to attack UMP45, and he had thought that Wu Hao, who had strongly supported him as the "general manager" along with Wang Ming, would help him cover up. Unexpectedly... Bo Gu looked at Wu Hao with resentment and could only nod.

"Yes, I'm only the temporary person in charge. However, before a new person in charge is elected and reported to the Communist International for approval, why can't I represent the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China?!" Bo Gu is still too young. Just this one sentence shows that he has fallen into the rhythm of UMP45 (Mark) and can only let the other party manipulate him.

"Okay, let's not talk about the Communist International for now, let's talk about your so-called Central Committee of the Communist Party of China...ah, a so-called Central Committee of the Communist Party of China with five traitors among the nine members..."

The faces of all the CCP members present turned dark.

This incident caused...

Even if it was actually a "test" by the World Revolutionary Party, it was still embarrassing in the end.

Not only was the CCP Central Committee embarrassed, but they, as CCP members, felt equally ashamed. UMP45 continued cheerfully, asking:

"Comrade Bogu, who told you that the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in Shanghai is the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China?"

This time, the ugly look on Bogu's face disappeared, leaving only confusion and bewilderment:

"Shanghai...CCP...Central Committee, this was approved by the Communist International? If it's not the Central Committee, then who is the Central Committee?" Wu Hao also frowned and said:

"Comrade Ma Shiwu, perhaps there are some issues with Comrade Bo Gu's identity, but the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China..." "Oh, it seems that the telegram was tampered with before it was sent..."

"What?"

"Let me tell you something! Actually, the Communist International never approved the CCP's establishment of a new Central Committee!" "What!!"

Amidst everyone's extreme astonishment, UMP45 casually read out a message:

Minutes of the Political Committee of the Political Secretariat of the Executive Committee of the Communist International, No. 192

The gist of it is that the Comintern approved the CCP's proposal for the composition of the Provisional Central Politburo, which was the "Nine-Man List" (in fact, it had been supplemented three times, especially by Huang Ping, who was forced by the Comintern to be included in the CCP).

That's nothing, the key is the four words "temporary central government"!

Everyone knows how big the difference is between the "Central Committee of the Communist Party of China" and the "Provisional Central Committee"!

Even though he was being held in custody, Zhang Guotao, who was still eligible to attend the meeting because his various identities had not yet been officially revoked, had an expression of astonishment on his face!

He originally thought that the absence of his name from the new "Central Political Bureau" was due to Wang Ming's interference in the Communist International's decision not to approve his inclusion in the "Nine-Man List." After much deliberation, it turned out that there had been no new "Central Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee" at all, and the one in Shanghai was merely a "temporary body"!

In other words, Zhang Guotao's status as a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee was never revoked!

This is completely different from the Central Provisional Politburo formed at the "August 7th Conference"!

However, no one from the "Central Committee of the Communist Party of China" in Shanghai has ever explained this point!

Judging from the documents sent by the Shanghai Central Committee to the various Soviet areas, they were always signed by the "Central Committee of the Communist Party of China"! No one in the entire Communist Party regarded this Shanghai Central Committee as a "temporary central committee"!

Some were tempted to refute this, but when they recalled the miraculous qualities of UMP45 and the SRP, they clammed up. Their unwavering credibility stemmed from their inability to make a mistake.

Everyone first looked at Chen Yun and Zhang Wentian, two members of the "Shanghai Central Political Bureau," and shook their heads. They had only been there since November, so they probably knew nothing. Zhao Ziqi, who hadn't been there before, probably knew even less. Then, everyone turned their attention to the other two people.

One is Wu Hao and the other is Bo Gu.

But the two of them thought carefully for a while and said almost in unison:

"No, you're lying! It's the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. There's a telegram from the Communist International to prove it!" "Yes, Comrade Ma Shiwu, I think you must have made a mistake on this point."

UMP45 did not refute and asked calmly: "Comrade Wu Hao, are you aware of this telegram?" "Of course I am, but not temporarily..."
