Chapter 42 42. The Americans harmed the Taiwanese

The tactics of the Americans during the "February 28th" were too obvious.According to "Chen Yi to Chairman Jiang Yu Telegram in March 1947": "Americans participated in this incident, and the reactionaries communicated with the US consulate. The US consul has made various unreasonable remarks against the government." According to " Chen Yi reported the situation of the "February 28" incident to Wu Dingchang and others": "(March 24, 1947)...During the incident, my brother sent personnel to the US consulate to contact. A meeting is held inside..." It can be seen that the Americans intervened in the "February 28", and the officials have long been aware of it.

Look at some more historical materials: 1. Lin Zongguang's "2.28 Incident in the Eyes of Americans": "...Carl said that in mid-February, a group of representatives of young people in Taiwan wrote a very long petition to the then US Secretary of State George Marshall (George Marshall), ask the United Nations to remove Chen Yi and let Taiwan be under the trusteeship of the United Nations..." 2. Tang Xianlong's "Inside Story of the Taiwan Incident" (page 108): "... There are also eight students from Taiwan University who once asked the US Consulate for solidarity, saying that because Taiwanese people could not bear the oppression of the Chinese, it was because of this political reform. The movement took place. I hope that the United States can provide spiritual and material assistance..."

3. "New Life" (March 3, 1947): "...Regarding this case, the motion to inform the whole world and the government is established immediately, that is, to elect Lin Zongxian, Lin Shidang, Lu Boxiong, Luo Shuiyuan, and Li Wanju Five members will be the committee members, and we plan to entrust the US Consulate to handle it well..." The above sampling is by no means a clue, but a masterpiece raised by the US Consul George Kerr.Ge Chaozhi finally performed the evacuation scene, intending to add fuel to the fire.Report to the US Embassy in Nanjing.The US ambassador to China John Leighton Stuart (John Leighton Stuart) suppressed the conspiracy to evacuate overseas Chinese, and at the same time informed Chiang Kai-shek. Chiang Kai-shek then secretly ordered Chen Yi to take precautions.The conclusion is that the Taiwanese were put together by the Americans, the consul fanned the wind, and the ambassador let the water go.Taiwanese believe in the Americans, but they don't know that the Americans have betrayed them.Lin Maosheng was shot, and "approaching the US Consulate" turned out to be a "crime". It's not worth it.

■Are high-level US officials not interested in Taiwan at that time? □In 1947, the atmosphere was indeed like this.There is a paragraph in Lin Zongguang's "2.28 Incident in the Eyes of Americans": "...Officials of the State Department have never been willing to involve the United States in the vortex of the Taiwan issue... After the incident, Carl's was recalled to the United States, which was the same as that at that time. When John Carter Vincent, who is in charge of Far Eastern affairs at the State Department, talked about the wishes of the Taiwanese people for the United States, the United Nations, and the future status of Taiwan, Vincent once told Carter in a firm tone: "There is no United Nations personnel-Washington It goes without saying that the officials in Taiwan have any interest in Taiwan.'..." The Americans only thought about Taiwan on the eve of the loss of the mainland. During the "February 28th" period, it was not yet a climate, and Taiwanese elites who believed in Americans were nothing more than fools in Taiwan.
