Telegram to Su Yu and Others[1]

(August 2, 1946)

Is it possible to annihilate another two enemy brigades in Central Jiangsu within one month? If you can annihilate two enemy brigades within August, the situation on the southern front will immediately change, and at that time Su can lead the main force to shift to operations in Huainan.

[1] This is the main content of a telegram drafted by Mao Zedong for the Military Commission of the CPC Central Committee in reply to Su Yu and for the information of Zhang Dingcheng, Deng Zihui, Chen Yi, and Song Shilun, after receiving Su Yu’s telegram suggesting the rapid eastward movement of the Fifth Brigade from Huainan to fight in Central Jiangsu and Chen Yi’s telegram suggesting Su Yu lead his troops westward to develop a new area on the Upper Huai River.
