ln my opinion,

deep down

they want us to talk.

Li Zongren wants peace, we want peace,

the other Parties want peace.

We'll do the Acting President a favor.

Great.

Let's give him a chance to talk,

but we decide how.

Victory bulletin...

War communique from Huaihai.

According to the wire,

550,000 enemies were killed

and Du Yuming was captured.

What about the New 5th and the 1 8th?

Gone.

The 5 major divisions were wiped out.

Chiang is finished for good.

There'll be no more fighting

north of the Yangtze.

Cheers.

This is the last battle.

We stay united till tomorrow.

'"lnternationale''

will come true.

This is the last battle.

We stay united till tomorrow.

-07:
-08:19,074 -- -07:-08:24,899

Father, it's cold on the ground.

-07:
-08:28,705 -- -07:-08:30,514

Sit down.

-07:
-08:36,332 -- -07:-08:37,390

Ching-kuo.

-07:
-08:38,336 -- -07:-08:43,968

You did a good job in

Shanghai. l'm very pleased.

-07:
-08:50,683 -- -07:-08:54,460

l made Chen Cheng Governor of Taiwan.

-07:
-08:55,431 -- -07:-08:57,456

Do you know why?

-07:
-08:59,422 -- -07:-07:03,085

Your route of retreat?

-07:
-07:04,122 -- -07:-07:10,015

Yes, Du Yuming's men were wiped out.

-07:
-07:10,031 -- -07:-07:13,706

l lost all the men who can fight.

-07:
-07:13,715 -- -07:-07:18,436

We can't count on the 1 million

men we captured in Jiangnan.

-07:
-07:18,444 -- -07:-07:21,368

They can barely hold their rifles.

-07:
-07:22,454 -- -07:-07:28,029

The Yangtze is lost.

-07:
-07:29,985 -- -07:-07:33,864

You intend to evacuate to Taiwan?

-07:
-07:33,879 -- -07:-07:35,699

You're coming too.

-07:
-07:41,640 -- -07:-07:46,282

You think Li Zongren won't get anywhere

-07:
-07:46,292 -- -07:-07:48,260

with the CPC over the

peace negotiations?

-07:
-07:48,269 -- -07:-07:50,203

lf we can't defeat them at war,

-07:
-07:50,216 -- -07:-07:53,970

we won't beat them at

the conference table.

-07:
-07:54,005 -- -07:-07:55,905

Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi thought

-07:
-07:55,914 -- -07:-07:58,803

the CPC will settle for using

the Yangtze as a partition.

-07:
-07:59,790 -- -07:-06:02,714

They don't know Mao Zedong.

-07:
-06:02,725 -- -07:-06:05,523

Mao will never agree to

-07:
-06:05,536 -- -07:-06:07,504

separate governments on

both sides of the Yangtze?

-07:
-06:07,512 -- -07:-06:12,211

Would you accept if it were you?

-07:
-06:14,188 -- -07:-06:17,021

That'd depend on the US and the USSR...

-07:
-06:17,038 -- -07:-06:20,815

Don't make it so complicated. lt

doesn't matter what anyone thinks.

-07:
-06:21,009 -- -07:-06:23,842

China was split into north

and south in the past

-07:
-06:23,848 -- -07:-06:26,646

but not today.

-07:
-06:26,659 -- -07:-06:28,684

Who would want to be blamed for it?

-07:
-06:28,693 -- -07:-06:31,514

Definitely not me.

-07:
-06:33,461 -- -07:-06:35,315

Mr. Zhang Lan.

-07:
-06:35,331 -- -07:-06:37,162

Right now, in your opinion,

-07:
-06:37,173 -- -07:-06:39,994

will the CPC accept the

Government's plea for peace?

-07:
-06:40,185 -- -07:-06:42,096

lmpossible.

-07:
-06:42,113 -- -07:-06:43,967

Why is that?

-07:
-06:43,974 -- -07:-06:46,784

lf Chiang never gives up his

so-called constitution,

-07:
-06:46,795 -- -07:-06:48,638

The CPC will not recognize it

-07:
-06:48,646 -- -07:-06:50,739

and neither will the people.

-07:
-06:50,747 -- -07:-06:53,580

You know Mao Zedong and

Zhou Enlai very well.

-07:
-06:53,586 -- -07:-06:56,475

Are they local revolutionaries

-07:
-06:56,493 -- -07:-05:00,179

or mere agents working for international

communist intelligence bureau?

-07:
-05:00,186 -- -07:-05:03,189

What kind of question is that?

-07:
-05:03,198 -- -07:-05:07,862

l want to know your view.

-07:
-05:07,880 -- -07:-05:11,737

My view is that the CPC

catered for the people

-07:
-05:11,746 -- -07:-05:14,590

which explains their achievements today.

-07:
-05:15,564 -- -07:-05:17,395

Achievements?

-07:
-05:17,406 -- -07:-05:19,385

Yes, achievements.

-07:
-05:22,231 -- -07:-05:23,346

Dear Zuoyi.

-07:
-05:23,363 -- -07:-05:26,218

You and l have come a long way.

-07:
-05:26,231 -- -07:-05:29,086

Given the circumstances, you took

matters into your own hands.

-07:
-05:29,099 -- -07:-05:32,887

There's nothing l can do about

that, but l have one request.

-07:
-05:32,898 -- -07:-05:35,719

l will send planes to Beiping tomorrow

-07:
-05:35,728 -- -07:-05:38,492

to airlift officers of the 1 3th

Army ranked Major or above

-07:
-05:38,510 -- -07:-05:39,477

and essential weaponry.

-07:
-05:40,486 -- -07:-05:43,387

On account of our long standing

friendship, please help me out.

-07:
-05:44,323 -- -07:-05:46,177

Chiang Chung-cheng .

-07:
-04:22,838 -- -07:-04:24,715

Beiping fell. Fu Zuoyi surrendered.

-07:
-04:24,728 -- -07:-04:27,538

The CPC is moving in on

the Yangtze and Nanjing.

-07:
-04:27,549 -- -07:-04:30,404

With regards to my plea for peace,

-07:
-04:30,417 -- -07:-04:31,395

the CPC accepted it

-07:
-04:31,405 -- -07:-04:35,250

but raised 8 very harsh conditions.

-07:
-04:37,017 -- -07:-04:40,874

Madame, if you speak on

behalf of the Government,

-07:
-04:40,883 -- -07:-04:43,829

Mao and Zhou may trust me.

-07:
-04:47,770 -- -07:-04:50,477

As you know, Mr. Acting President,

-07:
-04:50,495 -- -07:-04:55,432

l washed my hands in politics

since the onset of the civil war.

-07:
-04:56,298 -- -07:-03:00,109

There are rumors in the newspapers

about me coming out of retirement.

-07:
-03:00,126 -- -07:-03:02,082

The Trust had to issue a denial.

-07:
-03:02,093 -- -07:-03:03,867

Madame.

-07:
-03:05,834 -- -07:-03:08,826

Dr. Sun founded the KMT.

-07:
-03:08,836 -- -07:-03:13,466

You can't sit back and

-07:
-03:13,479 -- -07:-03:14,616

watch it go to ruin.

-07:
-03:33,739 -- -07:-03:38,403

Don't forget, you may be

the Acting President,

-07:
-03:39,591 -- -07:-03:43,311

but Chiang Kai-shek is

still the Party Chairman.

-07:
-03:57,654 -- -07:-02:02,466

Looks like the Acting President

is having a hard time.

-07:
-02:02,480 -- -07:-02:06,371

Chiang stepped down in name only.

-07:
-02:06,384 -- -07:-02:10,059

He still has control of everything.

-07:
-02:10,068 -- -07:-02:12,172

Li Zongren does not

have enough authority.

-07:
-02:12,188 -- -07:-02:15,032

He's only a puppet.

-07:
-02:15,046 -- -07:-02:19,813

Nothing will come out of the negotiation.

-07:
-02:19,824 -- -07:-02:22,668

No wonder you turned him down.

-07:
-02:24,514 -- -07:-02:26,482

l don't want to go to Beiping

-07:
-02:29,273 -- -07:-02:36,020

because Dr. Sun died

there. Too many memories.

-07:
-02:41,849 -- -07:-02:44,807

Master Zhang, you're a

veteran of the United League

-07:
-02:44,813 -- -07:-02:46,667

and Zhu De's mentor.

-07:
-02:46,684 -- -07:-02:49,608

Zhou Enlai and Dong Biwu

have great respect for you.

-07:
-02:49,619 -- -07:-02:52,361

The Acting President issued a

declaration for peace negotiation.

-07:
-02:52,468 -- -07:-02:57,098

You're the most suitable

person to mediate.

-07:
-02:58,032 -- -07:-01:00,978
