Chapter 49 Again advocating a world war 1965

Journalist: “You again talk about fighting a war, scraping the wind of World War III?”

Mao: “Yes, in 1965, I suffered from war mania again, blowing the wind of fighting World War 3. (This matter I spoke at the Central Committee meeting in 1955, no one responded)

Fight the Third World War, Soviet repair from the north, let them occupy the whole northeast, northwest, north China, release all north of the Yellow River to them, and wait for them to drop the atomic bomb hydrogen bomb. The southern side put in degrees to occupy Tibet. The U.S. empire and Chiang’s army occupy the south, let’s take the Yangtze River as the boundary, release all south of the Yangtze River to them, lure them into the interior, not afraid of them dropping atomic bombs, I retreat to the mountainous area between the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, as long as I can draw the U.S. empire and Soviet Union all in, it will be good. With guerrilla warfare consume them, dragging a three or five years, close the door to fight the dog, clean up the two big bad guys.

Unfortunately, the marshals and generals listening to me, are wide-eyed, silent, to me to fight the Third World War is not afraid to die half of the rhapsody, no one to agree, unlike speaking of other, speak one applause through one. I was anxious to speak by name, first asked Liu Shaoqi to talk about their views.

Liu Shaoqi but modestly said that he had less military inquiries, or first listen to the views of the marshals and generals. I then named He Long, He bearded words do not mean to say: obey the Party Central Committee, to defend the Party Central Committee. I then named Luo Ruiqing, Luo Changzi actually said need time to learn more, understand, digest. I see no one open response, had to declare the meeting adjourned, I became a loner, fart not loud.”
