"Commander Li, what you said is true, these weapons and ammunition are real..." Commander Wang said in disbelief.
"Captain Wang, if you don't believe it, I can ask the soldiers to bring all the weapons and ammunition over now for you to personally inspect and accept." Seeing the surprised Commander Wang, Bruce Lee said with a smile.
"No, no need. Thank you, Brigadier Li. Thank you, Division ***. I believe that with the support of these heavy weapons and ammunition, the combat effectiveness of our security regiment will be at least doubled. Thank you, Brigadier Li.
Yes..." After hearing Bruce Lee's answer, Captain Wang completely believed it and quickly waved his hand and answered.
"Commander Wang, you're welcome. As the saying goes, all the Eighth Route Army in the world are one family. We are all Communists and we are all for the needs of the revolutionary work. There is no need to distinguish each other." Bruce Lee replied with a smile.
"Yes, the Eighth Route Army in the world is all one family, all one family..." Commander Wang replied with a smile.
And just when Bruce Lee was leading a group to conduct crazy training outside Yan'an City. In a cave dwelling in Yan'an City, several big bosses in the center were sitting in a small conference room, smoking cigarettes and talking.
It’s the *** Bureau meeting. This meeting started yesterday and has been going on for a day now, but still no results have been discussed.
"Comrades, as I just said, the current *** Division is no longer a combat unit that has always been blocked. Just now, I received a message that the *** Division Guard Brigade, in order to support our Yan'an Guard Regiment, has
Regiment Wang commanded the equipment of a mortar company, a heavy machine gun company, and the corresponding six base ammunition. In addition, he also provided support for 300,000 rounds of rifle bullets." The chairman took a deep drag on his cigarette and continued.
"Comrades, the reason why I say this is to tell you that judging from the current situation, the *** Division not only has 60,000 regular troops. More importantly, they are well-equipped and have sufficient ammunition. It can be
In this way, the current *** division is no worse than any main division in our entire Eighth Route Army, and it is much more powerful. Boss, can you tell us about the configuration of the *** division in terms of heavy weapons?
Let's have a more direct understanding of the combat effectiveness of the *** division!" The chairman once again took a deep puff of the cigarette in his hand and said to the commander-in-chief Zhu De beside him.
"Comrades, according to the establishment reported by the *** Division two days ago, the *** Division now includes one heavy artillery regiment and three ordinary artillery regiments in terms of heavy weapons. I will shock you when I say it. Even I
The Chairman and I were also shocked by these data." The Commander-in-Chief said with a smile.
"The heavy artillery regiment of the *** Division has 12 150mm heavy howitzers, 12 105mm heavy howitzers, and 12 75mm field guns. With such a heavy artillery regiment, even Chairman Chiang Kai-shek in Chongqing
None... More importantly, his three ordinary artillery regiments have more than 36 mountain field guns of various calibers. For such small-caliber mortars, they have all been equipped with regiment-level troops.
..." The commander-in-chief stood up and introduced.
"Ah... so many heavy weapons... Oh my god, how many cannons are there..." After listening to the commander-in-chief's introduction, several big shots in the conference room already knew
Except for the chairman of the situation, the commander-in-chief, and the chief of staff, Mr. Ye, the rest of the people couldn't help but take a breath and let out exclamations.
"Comrades, having said so much, I just want everyone to know that the current 60,000 troops of the *** Division are already the most powerful unit in our entire Eighth Route Army. It can be said that the combat effectiveness of one division of the *** Division is at least
It can account for more than 30% of the combat effectiveness of our entire Eighth Route Army. In addition, the Jinyi base area not only has 60,000 regular troops, but also at least 100,000 militia and garrison troops. So, this is what I have repeatedly emphasized, for
We must pay attention to such a powerful force..." After the commander-in-chief finished speaking, the chairman continued.
"Yes, I also agree with the chairman's opinion. The political commissar sent this time must not only be capable, but also have a certain prestige within the party. More importantly, he must be able to cooperate with Comrade Liu Hua and lead this unit well.
Interfering with Comrade Liu Hua's command of operations." The commander-in-chief also nodded meaningfully.
The big bosses in the conference room, after listening to the words of the chairman and the boss, fell into deep thought one after another, and began to think quietly among the outstanding political workers in the party...
"Chairman, I have a nomination..." Within a few minutes, Wang Jiaxiang raised his right hand.
"Well, Jia Xiang, tell me who you have in mind..." The chairman nodded and asked.
"I propose Comrade Luo Ronghuan, the current director of the *** Department of the 115th Division. Comrade Luo Ronghuan can be said to be the veteran of our party and has high prestige within the party. More importantly, his level of political work is definitely one of the best in the party
"I propose that Comrade Luo Ronghuan serve as the political commissar of the *** division." Wang Jiaxiang stood up and said.
"Yes, I also agree with Comrade Luo Ronghuan. Before the reorganization of the Red Army, Comrade Luo Ronghuan served as the political commissar of the army and is fully capable of shouldering the responsibility of the political commissar of the *** division." After hearing Wang Jiaxiang's suggestion, Zhang Wentian, who had been silent, also
He stood up and said in great agreement.
"Well, Comrade Luo Ronghuan is a very good candidate. How about it? Do you have any other candidates?" After listening to the two people's speeches, the chairman nodded secretly and continued to ask.
"Haha, I do have a candidate who is very suitable, but he is not suitable to be a political cadre, so I won't say anything." Seeing the questioning look from the chairman, the commander-in-chief waved his hand with a smile and said.
"Boss, who is it? Let's talk about it and let us all discuss it?" Seeing the smiling commander-in-chief, Chief of Staff Ye quickly asked.
"Well, since everyone wants to know, let me tell you. He is our Mr. Ye's deputy, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Eighth Route Army Zuo Quan... But it is a pity that he does have prestige within the party, but he is just a natural born
Military talents are not suitable to be political cadres." The commander-in-chief shook his head and said.
.....................
In this way, the entire meeting, after more than half an hour of discussion, finally decided to transfer Comrade Luo Ronghuan, director of the *** Department of the 115th Division, to serve as the political commissar of the *** division... At the same time, in the name of the Military Commission, respectively
Two telegrams were drafted and sent to Luo Ronghuan and Liu Hua at the same time.
For Luo Ronghuan, who has been the director of the Communist Party Department, after receiving the transfer order from the Military Commission, apart from curiosity, he did not hesitate and was immediately ready to leave for Yan'an. However, as a senior cadre of the Eighth Route Army, he still
I am very yearning for this new *** division that was just established. Especially since the *** division fought several battles in a row, and everyone thought it was impossible to win, this made this one who was only engaged in political work.
Cadres at work are looking forward to it.
After receiving the order, Luo Ronghuan did not dare to neglect. He rode a fast horse and was escorted by a cavalry company. He arrived in Yan'an in less than four days and four nights. After arriving in Yan'an, he immediately reported to the central government.
Work. It was not until he met the chairman and the commander-in-chief that he realized how powerful the military division he was about to take charge of was.
The regular army alone has more than 60,000 people and advanced equipment. It can be said that it is the most powerful unit of our Eighth Route Army. And starting from today, he is actually the political commissar of this army. Thinking of this, Luo Ronghuan was excited.
"Comrade Ronghuan, this time the heavy responsibility of the *** Division is placed on your shoulders. I hope that after you arrive at the *** Division, you will cooperate with Comrade Liu Hua and lead this elite unit of our army." Look.
Seeing Luo Ronghuan in a daze, the chairman quickly reminded him.
"Ah...yes, Chairman, I will cooperate well with Comrade Liu Hua and lead the *** division, and I will definitely live up to the trust placed in me by the central government." Luo Ronghuan, who was named by the Chairman, was shocked and immediately reacted.
"Well, you have to remember that in the *** Division, although you are the political commissar, you must not interfere with Comrade Liu Hua's military command. At the same time, you must help Comrade Liu Hua well and remind Comrade Liu Hua at any time. Of course.
, you must not forget your own job, and you must do a good job in the ideological propaganda work of the entire army... In short, in the *** division, the political commissar does not have the final decision-making power. If you have any opinions, you
The results of the discussion can be reported directly to the central government, which will make a decision." Looking at Luo Ronghuan in front of him, the chairman said meaningfully.
"Ah...yes, Chairman, I understand. I will definitely cooperate with Comrade Liu Hua and lead the *** division." After hearing the Chairman's words, Luo Ronghuan couldn't help but be stunned. Because the Chairman's words are obviously in line with our army's policy
It didn't match. However, he reacted immediately and answered loudly.
"Okay, that's all I have to explain. Let's see if the boss has anything else to explain." The chairman nodded and looked at the commander-in-chief next to him.
"Comrade Luo Ronghuan, the chairman has told you everything that needs to be explained. I think you must be wondering now why you don't have the final decision-making power in the *** division... Haha, don't think too much about this. Because the whole *
It can be said that the *** Division, from weak to strong, slowly grew up in unexpected battles. And the commander of these battles was undoubtedly not Comrade Liu Hua. At the same time, the reason why the *** Division
Comrade Liu Hua is indispensable for becoming what it is today. We can even say that the *** division can be without anyone, but it must not be without Comrade Liu Hua. Do you understand what I mean?" the commander-in-chief clicked.
He nodded and explained seriously.
"Commander-in-Chief, I understand. Please rest assured. I will cooperate with Comrade Liu Hua in his work and will not interfere with Comrade Liu Hua's military command. Chairman, Commander-in-Chief, please rest assured." After hearing the explanation from the Commander-in-Chief, Luo Ronghuan slowly
He reacted. He saluted the commander-in-chief and the chairman in front of him and replied loudly.
"Okay, Comrade Luo Ronghuan, from today on, you are the political commissar of the *** Division of the Eighth Route Army. Now the 1st Guards Brigade of the *** Division is stationed in the military camp outside the city. If you are ready, you can follow the 1st Guards Brigade to *** at any time.
Go and take up the post at the * division's station." After hearing Luo Ronghuan's assurance, the chairman nodded and said.
"Yes, Chairman, Commander-in-Chief..." Luo Ronghuan turned around and left the central station and walked out of the city.
At this time, the division commander had already received a telegram requesting Bruce Lee to safely escort the new political commissar back to the base area. After learning that the political commissar had arrived in Yan'an today, he took the regiment leader Huang Zhengqing and stood guard at the gate of the station.
, The hard work paid off, after several people waited all morning. Just as the troops were preparing to have lunch, the political commissar and his party finally appeared in everyone's sight.
I saw the political commissar and three guards, riding on horses, running quickly towards their barracks. From the time when the political commissar left the city and led to the entrance of the barracks, in less than a minute, several people fell off their horses and came to Bruce Lee
In front of others.
"Reporting to Political Commissar Luo, Bruce Lee, Commander of the *** Division Guard Brigade, and Huang Zhengqing, Commander of the 1st Guard Brigade Regiment, report to you. Under the order of the division commander, we will escort you back to the base safely." Seeing the political commissar in front of him, Bruce Lee quickly saluted,
replied loudly.
"Commander Li, thank you for your hard work. I don't know when we will set off..." Seeing that the young man in his twenties in front of him turned out to be the famous Guard Brigade Commander of the *** Division, Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan.
Surprised. However, he reacted in the shortest time and asked with a smile.
"Reporting to the political commissar, according to the plan, we are going to set off in the afternoon. If everything goes well along the way, we can rush back to the base area within ten days. Political commissar, you must be hungry after traveling for several days. I have already let you go
The cooking team has prepared the meals. Let's fill our stomachs first and then discuss the departure." After hearing the political commissar's answer, Bruce Lee quickly answered.
"Okay, let's eat first. After eating, we'll get ready to go..." Luo Ronghuan nodded and said.
"Yes, political commissar, let's go this way..." Soon, several people arrived at the brigade headquarters. After arranging three guards, the three of them sat at the dining table. Soon, the squad leader of the cooking squad greeted him with a smile.
Several large bowls of steaming hot meals filled with the aroma of meat came.
Smelling the aroma of meat that he hadn't smelled for almost a month, the political commissar couldn't help but increase his appetite and his eyes widened. However, he frowned when he thought about the hard life of various departments of the Eighth Route Army at this time. Because in his eyes, it was so good.
Even Chairman Mao of the Party Central Committee could hardly eat the food regularly, let alone the ordinary combat troops. It must be that Bruce Lee in front of him was specializing.
"Brigadier Li, why are you so special..." the political commissar asked with a frown as he looked at the three bowls of steaming meat in front of him.
"Ah, Political Commissar... Political Commissar, you misunderstood, we are not specializing. It's just that we are going back this afternoon, and in the next week, the troops will basically live on dry food. So,
According to regulations today, the whole regiment will have extra meals. Every soldier in the guard regiment can eat these dishes..." Seeing the frowning political commissar looking at the food on the table, Bruce Lee immediately reacted and hurriedly explained
road.
"What, you mean all the soldiers in the Guard Regiment eat the same as us..." After hearing Bruce Lee's answer, the political commissar said in disbelief.
"Yes, political commissar, the soldiers are all eating in their barracks. We can go over and take a look now." As he spoke, Bruce Lee had already stood up...
A few minutes passed. Under the leadership of Bruce Lee, the political commissar finally believed Bruce Lee's answer and returned to the headquarters with a face full of surprise. At this time, faced with such a good meal, the political commissar no longer refused any more and began to eat
stand up.
"Brigadier Li, you don't know that when I was the director of the *** department in 115, I could only taste meat basically once a month, and it was limited. Haha, to be honest, I only tasted meat once a month.
There is no time to eat meat." Seeing Bruce Lee's eyes, the political commissar said with a smile.
"Report to the political commissar, there are still more cooking classes..." After hearing the political commissar's answer, Bruce Lee quickly withdrew his gaze and said embarrassedly.
"Enough, these are enough. By the way, Brigadier Li, as far as I know, the logistics of the entire Eighth Route Army is not very perfect, there are many mistakes, and the other is in a state of lack of food. Where did our *** division get it from?
So much meat..." The political commissar asked the doubts in his heart while eating.
"Reporting to the political commissar, it is like this. Our *** Division Logistics Department has a department responsible for raising pigs, and even growing military rations for the troops. We usually eat pork raised by the Logistics Department ourselves at the station, but if we are marching outside
In order to come to Yan'an this time, each of our guard regiment carried a can of canned beef and a can of pork. I ate some today and still have more than a thousand cans left. I
When you plan to leave, leave it to Political Commissar Guan so that he can recuperate." Bruce Lee quickly explained.
"So that's the case, no wonder. But we don't even have enough food to eat ourselves. Where do we get the food to raise pigs... Also, are the people in charge of raising pigs in the logistics department our combat troops?" The political commissar nodded.
, continued to ask.
"Haha, political commissar, I'm not particularly clear about this. But I know that these soldiers in the Logistics Department are soldiers who were injured in ordinary battles and were unable to return to the army to continue fighting. The Logistics Department will assign them according to their abilities.
All departments are working to continue to contribute to the revolution." Bruce Lee explained.
"Okay, this method is great. This not only solves the problem of placement of the wounded in the army. More importantly, it streamlines the personnel of the army and creates income for the army. It is really a good method. If it doesn't work, I will write a letter to the central government immediately.
Write a report and ask all base areas to do this. By the way, you haven't told me yet, who came up with this method?" After hearing Bruce Lee's answer, the political commissar slammed the table in front of him and said excitedly.
