Chapter 27 2. Mao Zedong said to Fu Zuoyi: In the end you still got rid of Chiang Kai-shek

To be exact, General Fu Zuoyi, who accepted the peaceful adaptation, also had mixed feelings.The Party Central Committee immediately informed him to go to Xibaipo for an interview. The news was told to him by Deng Baoshan. Fu Zuoyi was still a little conflicted. He asked, "I have handed over all the troops, why do they ask me to go?" Deng Baoshan said with a smile: "General Fu, it is Mao Zedong who wants to see you this time, and the meaning is extraordinary." "Really?" "It was said by Comrade Tao Zhu." "Can you bring staff?" "Can."

"Okay, let's go together." Fu Zuoyi took Deng Baoshan and several entourages to Xibaipo. Mao Zedong received them that night. In a low farmhouse, Mao Zedong, dressed in ragged cotton clothes, welcomed Fu Zuoyi into the door, took his hand and said with a smile: "We are old friends!" Fu Zuoyi didn't understand the true meaning of these words, so he didn't know what to say. Mao Zedong went on to say: "In the past, we often met on the battlefield, and it was very clear. When we come together today, we are uncles and relatives. We are inseparable!"

Fu Zuoyi said: "The Communist Party is still wise." "Chiang Kai-shek played tricks all his life, but you finally got rid of him!" "This is the law of history." "Yes, history always moves forward, and no one can stop it. In the past, we met with swords and guns, and now we stand together. This is also in line with historical development. General Fu has a general understanding and has done something useful for the people. We thank you for that." "I was sorry for you in the past." "The past is history, everything can be done from scratch."

"The Communist Party is still magnanimous." Mao Zedong picked up half a cigarette, lit it and put it in the corner of his mouth to smoke. He looked at Fu Zuoyi and said, "Your personnel we captured in the past will be returned to you. We are going to send them to Suiyuan. What do you think?" Fu Zuoyi was not mentally prepared for this, so he was a little surprised.He asked, "Give it to me? What do I do with it?" "Can you meet me?" "This is fine, so why send it to Suiyuan?" "This question is simple. You KMT often say that our Communist Party murders and set fires, and they are Communist bandits. Let them return to Suiyuan to show their own experience. Our Communist Party does not search their pockets, and does not insult their personality. It can help people in Suiyuan learn from it! "

Fu Zuoyi was deeply moved. He said, "I don't know what instructions the chairman has for solving Suiyuan?" "Is Dong Qiwu in charge now?" "Yes, he asked me many times about solving Suiyuan." "In my opinion, don't worry. With the peaceful liberation of Peking, the Suiyuan issue will be easy to handle. You can let it go and wait for their uprising." "There is no problem with the uprising, they care about the army." "It's easy to talk about the army. We Communists mean what we say. As I said before, I will give you the establishment of the two armies. For you, you have to pass several hurdles to take the revolutionary road, but the main thing is to pass military hurdles. Once you pass the test, you will be able to pass the land reform test, the democratic reform test, and the socialism test in the future.”
