dc.description.abstract | After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War in August 1945, Jiang Zhongzheng sent three telegrams and invited Mao Zedong to Chungking to participate in the peace talks. Mao Zedong′s initial reaction was unwilling, but after receiving the telegram from Stalin, his attitude was change completely. The change in degree, immediately after the discussion at the enlarged meeting of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, returned to Jiang Zhongzheng to express his willingness to go to Chungking for peace talks.
On August 28, accompanied by US Ambassador to China, Hurley and Zhang Zhizhong, Mao Zedong arrived in Chungking by plane. From August 29 to October 10, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party jointly “removed the liberated areas”, “reorganized the army”and “The National Assembly and other issues” began a 43-day negotiation. Finally, on October 10, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party jointly signed the “Double Ten Chronicles”. Although the “Double Ten Chronicles” solved the problems of “National Assembly”, “People′s Sovereignty” ,“Release Political Prisoners” and“Received”, it did not solve the two problems of “liberation zone” and “reorganization of the army”. The two sides agreed to continue communication and leave it to be resolved when the Political Consultative Conference is held.
Although the Kuomintang and the Communist Party signed the “Double Ten Chronicles”, the military conflict between the two sides has intensified. On December 15, the United States sent Marshall to mediate. On January 10, 1946, at the same time as the Political Consultative Conference was held, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party issued the “Arbitration Order”. On June 26, the Chinese army launched a large-scale attack on the Central Plains Liberated Area. The civil war broke out in an all-round way. The efforts of the Chungking peace talks were ruined. China was caught in a civil war that killed 3 million people. | en_US |
