Letter to Taiwan Province Compatriots 1958 Letter to Taiwan Province Compatriots

Letter from the Ministry of National Defense of People's Republic of China (PRC) to compatriots in Taiwan Province Province

(195816 October)

Soldiers and civilians in Taiwan Province Province, Penghu, Kinmen and Mazu:

We are all from China. Thirty-six plans, peace is the most expensive. The Battle of Golden Gate was punitive. Your leaders were too wild for a long time, ordering planes to drill inland, as far away as Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Hong Kong and Qinghai, distributing leaflets, throwing spies, bombing Fuzhou and making trouble in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Not bad. Why not? So shoot a few shots to get your attention. Taiwan Province, Peng, Jin and Ma belong to China, and you agree. According to your leader, they are not American territory. Taiwan Province, Peng, Jin and Ma are part of China, not another country. There is only one China in the world, not two China. This is what you agree with, as your leader's statement shows. The military agreement concluded between your leaders and the Americans is one-sided, which we do not recognize and should be abolished. Americans will abandon you one day. Don't you believe it? The giants of history will come out to prove it. Dulles's conversation started on September 30th. From your standpoint, can you not be chilling? In the final analysis, American imperialism is our enemy. Jinmen130,000 soldiers and civilians are in short supply, and it is difficult to make long-term plans. Out of humanitarianism, I have ordered the Fujian front line to stop shelling for seven days from10.6, and you can deliver goods completely freely, but only if there is no American escort. Not if you have a chaperone. It is not good that your war with us has not ended for thirty years. It is suggested that negotiations be held to achieve a peaceful settlement. Premier Zhou Enlai told you years ago. This is a problem related to both China and China, not China and the United States. The US occupation of the Straits of Taiwan Province, Peng and Taiwan Province Province is an issue involving China and the United States, which should be resolved through negotiations between the two countries. It is currently being held in Warsaw. Americans always want to go, and it is impossible not to go. It is advantageous to leave America early, because you can take the initiative. It is not good to leave late, because it is always passive. Why did an eastern Pacific country come to the western Pacific? The western Pacific is the western Pacific for western Pacific people, just as the eastern Pacific is the eastern Pacific for eastern Pacific people. This is common sense and Americans should understand it. There is no war or ceasefire between People's Republic of China (PRC) and the United States. Isn't it a joke to talk about a ceasefire and not firing? Friends of Taiwan Province Province, there is a war between us, which should be stopped and put out. This requires negotiation. Of course, it's no big deal to fight for another 30 years, but it's better to settle it peacefully as soon as possible. Please decide where to go.

Peng People's Republic of China (PRC), Minister of Defense

Injection and release

(1) This is a letter drafted by the people of China and Peng, Minister of National Defense of China, to our compatriots in Taiwan Province Province. At two o'clock in the morning, this statement was issued, and a letter was sent to Peng and Huang Kecheng, telegraphing Han Xianchu, commander of Fuzhou Military Region, and Ye Fei, political commissar, pointing out: "Yesterday, I said I wouldn't make a statement until two days later. Later, after thinking about it, I thought it would be better to make a statement, so I had a letter to my compatriots in Taiwan Province Province. This is about to be sent out, please broadcast it several times by Fujian frontline radio station. "

(2) Kang refers to Xikang, an old provincial name, which governs western Sichuan and eastern Xizang Autonomous Region. It was revoked in 1955.

(3) refers to 1954, the United States and Chiang Kai-shek signed the Sino-US Defense Treaty.

(5) refers to the U.S. Secretary of State Dulles1September 30, 958. Dulles reiterated the United States' position that "both sides give up force" on the issue of Taiwan Province Province, criticized Chiang Kai-shek's government for maintaining a large number of troops on islands such as Kinmen and Matsu, admitted that Chiang Kai-shek's counterattack on the mainland was an "imaginary plan" and thought that "we will not go back there on our own". When asked by a reporter whether the US policy towards Taiwan Province Province would change if China's Producers' Party made some concessions, Dulles said, "Our policy in these areas is flexible and adapts to the situation we have to deal with. If the situation we have to deal with changes, our policies will also change. "

Soldiers and civilians in Taiwan Province Province, Penghu, Kinmen and Mazu:

We fully understand that most of you are patriotic, and only a few people are willing to be slaves of Americans. My fellow citizens, the affairs of the people of China can only be solved by us in China. If it is difficult to solve at the moment, we can consider it in the long run. Dulles, an American political broker, is nosy and wants to intervene in historical disputes between the two parties and order China people to do this and that, which harms China's interests and conforms to the interests of Americans. In other words, the first step is to isolate Taiwan Province Province; The second step is to administer Taiwan Province Province. If you don't like it, you can take out the most vicious means. Do you know how General Zhang died? There is a Huanggutun in the northeast, where he was put to death. Imperialists in the world have no conscience. American imperialists are particularly vicious, at least no less than the Japanese who killed Zhang. My fellow citizens, I suggest you be careful. I advise you not to rely too much on others and let others take all the authority away. Things between our two parties are easy to handle. I have ordered the front line in Fujian not to hit the airport in Kinmen, the docks, beaches and boats in Luowan every two days, so that the military and civilian compatriots on the islands of Greater Kinmen, Lesser Kinmen, Dadan and Erdan can get sufficient supplies, including food, vegetables, cooking oil, fuel and military equipment, so that you can stick to it for a long time. If there is a shortage, we can supply it as long as you ask. It's time to turn enemies into friends. Don't come all day. We don't necessarily have sex every day, but it's not to avoid possible losses. This can be transported for half a month, and the supply can be intact. Some of you suspect that we want to disintegrate the unity between the army and the people and the unity between officers and men. My fellow citizens, no, we hope you will strengthen unity to unite the outside world. It is not a trick to stop fighting, but a normal product of the current specific situation. Do not hit airports, docks, beaches or boats, or on the condition that American escort is not introduced. Not if you have a chaperone. You suffered a little in the talks between Chiang Kai-shek and Du Fu, and you only have the right to speak on behalf of "free China"; Plus a few overseas Chinese, you are allowed to represent them. Americans call you Little China. 1On October 23rd, the State Council published a conversation with a reporter sent by a British broadcasting company, which was prepared by Dulles 10/6. Dulles flew in from Taiwan Province Province, and the conversation came out. He said that he saw a * * * China, a producer, and said that this country does exist and he is willing to deal with it, and so on. Thankfully, our country was seen by an American grandfather. This is a big China. Americans change their policies according to the situation and regard you as a "de facto political unit" rather than a country. Americans still need this "de facto political unit" in the first stage. This is isolating Taiwan Province Province. The second stage, hosting Taiwan Province Province. Friends of the Kuomintang, don't you feel this danger? Where is the way out? Please think about it. The communique of the Jiangdu talks is only a communique and has no legal effect. Getting rid of it is easy, it depends on your determination. There is only one China in the world, not two China. We agree on this point. The trick of forcing Americans to create two China is absolutely unacceptable to all China people, including you and overseas Chinese. This era is full of hope. All patriots have a way out. Don't be afraid of any imperialists. Of course, we don't recommend that you break with Americans immediately. It is unrealistic to think so. We just hope that you won't succumb to American pressure, lose your sovereignty with others, and finally have nowhere to go and be thrown into the sea. Our words are well-intentioned, not malicious, and you will gradually understand later.

Secretary of defense Peng.

(According to People's Daily published on 19581October 26th) Three letters from People's Republic of China (PRC) and the Ministry of National Defense to compatriots in Taiwan Province Province.

(1958 1 1 month)

Soldiers and civilians in Taiwan Province Province, Penghu, Kinmen and Mazu:

In view of the good response of the officers and men of the Kuomintang army in Jinmen Islands, the Ministry's regulations on stopping shelling the four military targets of Jinmen Airport, Wharf, Beach and Liaoluo Bay for two days have been announced to be extended to military targets in all other areas, with no shooting for two days and all shooting for one day. Some targets, such as airports, docks, beaches and ships in Luowan, may not have sex for a day, but it is better not to come to your plane or ship to avoid possible losses. Americans are forbidden to escort, as stipulated in previous declarations. Two years ago, Premier Zhou Enlai proposed to you to hold peace talks, rationally resolve historical disputes between the two parties and peacefully liberate Taiwan Province Province, but you did not respond positively. The Americans tried their best to muzzle the authorities in Taiwan Province Province, forbidding them from conducting peace talks with us and insisting on interfering in China's internal affairs. Americans are very afraid of peace, and they are afraid that the two parties will get closer again and talk about the peace situation, which will hinder their attempt to isolate Taiwan Province Province and trust Taiwan Province Province. We must break the plan. We hope that the Taiwan Province provincial authorities will one day get rid of the stranglehold of the United States and send representatives to conduct peace talks. Our peace talks are sincere. If they are over, the civil war will be declared over, which will be a good thing. All China people will unite to deal with external threats. The so-called unity and mutual trust between the Americans and the Kuomintang is just talk. In the final analysis, it is unreliable. Say it a thousand times, you don't believe it yourself. Fellow citizens, we are all from China. We believe that when the Americans want to kill the Kuomintang, the Kuomintang will wake up and the peace talks may succeed. There is no basis for pessimism about this matter. I hope you'd better not listen to all the pessimistic remarks spread by pro-American factions.

Secretary of defense Peng.
