To Zhou Enlai and Others[1]

(January 27, 1939)

Zhou, Qin, He, Dong:

This is in preparation for possible new oppression against the New Fourth Army. It is hoped that materials on the New Fourth Army's combat experiences and victories will be widely publicized, and the claim that the New Fourth Army's guerrilla warfare is ineffective must be vehemently denounced.

Mao, Wang

The 27th
