When Jiang Cheng returned to Yan'an again, when he came to the cross streets of Yan'an, he found that there were many young people, all wearing military uniforms. There seemed to be countless interesting things in the small Yan'an streets. Take a look at these young people.
, walking around there, Jiang Cheng knew at a glance where he had been locked up for too long, and everything he saw was strange. He remembered that when Jiang Cheng was re-reading for the college entrance examination, he had been in seclusion for a year, barely going out, and later even the train was gone.
You can watch it for half a day.
A young soldier finished his last sip of noodle soup, burped, and said to the person opposite, "Brother Teng, this is so comfortable. What do you think this real battlefield looks like, with thousands of cannons firing in unison?"
I can't think of it at all. Haven't you been on the battlefield? Tell me about it, eh? Why don't you eat?"
Opposite was an older soldier, probably in his thirties, who said, "I can't eat it. Tian Jie, you see, all the people here this time are you young people. I'm the only one who's older. I don't know if it's okay."
I called you wrong. I finally have the opportunity to go to the front line. I really don’t want to go back to school."
Tian Jie looked at the noodle soup in front of Teng Yifeng and swallowed his saliva. Although he was full in school, he didn't have much food and water. He had to accumulate four months of military pay before he could eat two better meals. Tian Jie
As soon as Jie arrived in Yan'an, he couldn't wait to grab Teng Yifeng to eat mutton soup noodles.
Tian Jie said comfortingly, "Brother Teng, don't worry. You have served as an artillery company commander in the Northeast. You have experience. Your grades in the artillery school have always been the best. There must be no problem."
Teng Yifeng is from the Northeast. He was the artillery company commander of the Northeast Army. After the fall of Northeast China, the 26-year-old came to Tianjin to work for a few years. After making money, he took a self-study exam and entered university, which became a popular story. This year
At the age of 34, he followed his teachers and classmates to the border area, and entered the Artillery Academy to study again. Because of his solid foundation, he quickly stood out and became a key training target.
Tian Jie looked at his pocket watch and said anxiously, "Yifeng, hurry up, the meeting will be opened in half an hour."
When Teng Yifeng heard this, he stopped thinking and hurriedly drank the noodle soup in two or three gulps. When He Tianjie came to the playground, there were already many people.
Jiang Cheng was also on the playground at this time, looking at these student soldiers, and said to Chairman Mao next to him, "Chairman, compared with a few months ago, there is a big difference. You see, the horizontal lines are horizontal and the vertical lines are vertical.
"
Chairman Mao's face was full of black lines. After practicing for half a year, Jiang Cheng could tell that his military posture was good. Chairman Mao coughed and said, "203, your arms are very timely this time. These people have gifts."
I met their commander. By the way, the things you transported these two times were pretty good. Is there any change on your side?"
Jiang Cheng briefly told Chairman Mao what happened during this period. Chairman Mao raised his hand and almost wanted to beat Jiang Cheng. He said with red eyes, "How many times have I told you that your safety is the most important thing?
Don’t you understand? If you do this again, don’t come back. Without you, our government will still be successful. I don’t want to worry about you day and night whether something will happen to you in your time. What about Syria and Ukraine?
Since it's so dangerous, you shouldn't go."
Jiang Cheng said cheerfully, "If Ge Ming is not inviting guests to dinner, how can it not be dangerous? Chairman, don't worry, I will come back here once I find something wrong. No one can hurt me."
Chairman Mao shook his hands excitedly and said, "A arrogant army will be defeated, an arrogant army will be defeated, how many times have I said this? Remember, you can never ignore the enemy at any time, and you must strategically despise the enemy."
"Tactically, we pay attention to the enemy. Chairman, I know this. Don't worry. This time it was purely an accident. In my time, there are many people around me to protect me. Okay, everyone is waiting." Jiang Cheng pushed with a smile.
Chairman Mao walked out.
Chairman Mao gave Jiang Cheng a sharp look and said, "I'll take care of you when I get back."
Chairman Mao walked to the rostrum and said, "Good afternoon, fellow comrades, we are all students from various military academies. Although the study time is relatively short and we have not finished learning many things, the Japanese will not give us time, and we will not finish it."
You can only go to the battlefield to learn, go to the base to learn..."
Jiang Cheng watched Chairman Mao hold a mobilization meeting and turned back to the warehouse. The warehouse was still taking inventory. Yang Zhicheng was sweating on time. When he saw Jiang Cheng coming, he quickly complained, "203, I'm so exhausted, but I
The more you do, the happier you are. There are more weapons than last time."
Jiang Cheng chuckled and said, "This is only half, there is more to come. Butler Yang, just lose a few more pounds."
Yang Zhicheng looked at the machine guns one after another and said, "It doesn't matter if I lose ten or eight pounds. Looking at these things, I feel full of strength. Looking at these guns, I seem to see the heads of countless little devils."
Same."
Jiang Cheng patted the box of the container and said, "Wait a minute, Butler Yang, not only the heads of the little devils, but one day I will bring the head of the emperor for you to kick as a ball."
While the student soldiers in Yan'an were mobilizing, the main force of the Eighth Route Army in Shanxi also began to mobilize. In the few months since the division of troops in Luliang Mountain, from commanders to soldiers, they have gone through untold hardships to establish base areas. Relying on the resolute implementation of reduction measures,
By reducing rents and interest rates, leading the masses to fight against Japan, and many other measures, the people in the base areas gradually attached themselves to the Eighth Route Army, and everything was developing in a good direction. Military training was carried out in peacetime, and when the Japanese troops were dispatched, they would ambush and fight guerrillas. Kill a Japanese today and kill him tomorrow.
A traitor, the soldiers have become more and more affectionate towards this mountainous land, but now they have to leave here and go to open a base farther away. Although everyone can understand it, it is up to whoever leaves to stay.
There are new problems, and most of the newly recruited Eighth Route Army soldiers are Shanxi natives. Going to other provinces to help people in other provinces fight desperately, whether this is ideologically acceptable and whether they have the consciousness, has also become a question before the commanders and soldiers.
one question.
——Luliang Mountain, Eighth Route Army Headquarters
Boss Peng looked at the continuous flow of people going up the mountain and said, "Huh? Didn't we ask all the regiment-level cadres to come to the meeting? So many people?"
Zuo Quan, who was standing next to him, laughed and said, "The boss has forgotten that our troops are constantly growing. In addition to the regiments compiled by Lao Jiang, there are also newly established independent regiments, temporary regiments, and local regiments. Although these regiments do not have Lao Jiang,
Of course, they all came as well, but it was also at the regiment level.
Mr. Peng shook his head and said, "I know, but there are so many? I think there are hundreds of people."
Zuo Quan took out a small book, looked at it and said, "As of yesterday, our army's regiment-level establishment has reached 87, plus their guards, there are naturally hundreds of people. By the way, this time Shanxi New
The army is also here, and there will be more if we add them."
Mr. Peng clicked his tongue and said, "Chairman Mao is right. As long as we insist on relying on the people, our war will become stronger and stronger, with more troops fighting."
Zuo Quan nodded and said, "Our guerrilla warfare has penetrated into the hearts of all commanders and fighters. I looked at the intelligence reported at all levels. In the several months of guerrilla warfare, each unit killed more than 10,000 Japanese and puppet troops, no less than a large
The battle, and we also persuaded many bandits and rural soldiers to surrender, but I don’t think the little Japs feel anything.”
Boss Zhu came over at some point and laughed loudly and said, "I just don't want them to feel it. Today there is one less class, and tomorrow there is less one team. Our soldiers are just a bunch of leeches now. Slowly suck them dry."
The Japanese army is a stupid bull. When we grow up, we can kill them in one fell swoop. Okay, everyone is here, let’s go to the meeting."
The conference room was extremely lively at this time. After several months of separation, everyone reunited. Many who were originally battalion commanders or even company commanders were promoted to regimental commanders in the past few months. Of course, each regiment was still
There are differences. The regiments directly under the three main divisions are of the first class. They have sophisticated weapons, mostly German and Soviet weapons. They also have many veterans and have the strongest combat effectiveness. The independent regiments are of the second class. Their weapons are German and Su weapons.
Mainly Japanese weapons, mixed with cold weapons, only 30% to 40% of veterans, the temporary regiment is the third class, most of the weapons are old-fashioned equipment and a small amount of Japanese weapons, more than half are cold weapons, less than 20% of veterans, and in various places
Many guerrilla groups only have one or two hundred guns, and most of them are cold weapons. As for the soldiers, most of them are farmers who have just put down their hoes. Some troops even have shooting experience before the Anti-Japanese War.
There are only officers above the platoon leader level, and these are actually guerrilla columns and detachments.
Mr. Zhu walked to the rostrum and pressed down. Seeing that everyone was quiet, he glanced down and saw that those sitting in the first row were Lin Sanhu, He Long, Liu Bocheng and others. Mr. Zhu nodded and said, "Everyone
, how was your new year?"
He Long took out his pipe and said, "We hear a lot of firecrackers this year, and the little devils come to harass us all the time."
Liu Bocheng shook his finger and said jokingly, "But I heard that your 120th Division didn't stop even this year. It attacked everywhere and destroyed many Japanese outposts. Everyone, look at He Beard's belly. It seems a little bigger."
What?"
He Long quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, our 120th Division is very poor and we didn't get anything good."
Mr. Zhu chuckled and said, "Whether we are poor or rich, do you want us to retaliate? Well, Lin Sanhu, don't pretend to be asleep without saying anything. You'll start."
Lin Sanhu saw that he couldn't stand it, so he stood up and sighed and said, "It has been more than four months since the division of troops. We have expanded from more than 10,000 people to 58,000 people. Among them, the five main regiments are fully staffed, excluding the remaining troops in the border areas."
There are 17,000 people, and there are five new independent regiments, eight temporary regiments and 11 local guerrilla columns. There are not many weapons to supplement. Except for our five main regiments, which guarantee one shot per man, the other two
The total of the fourteen regiments only has more than 11,000 guns, and most of them are the guns left by Yan Laoxi and the guns collected in various towns and villages."
Before he finished speaking, there was a burst of applause. Lin Sanhu smiled, nodded to the people behind him before sitting down, and pushed He Long next to him. He Long said hoarsely, "That's what I said, our 120th Division
We are the poorest. Our four main regiments have a total of 13,000 people at full strength. There are also four independent regiments, six temporary regiments and nine local columns. The total number of people is 36,000. Excluding the main force
, the nineteen regiments only have a total of just over 10,000 guns."
He Long's 120th Division was close to the border area. The expansion of the troops was a little slower, but there was still applause. He Long waved his pipe to express his thanks.
Liu Bocheng smiled and pushed up his glasses and said, "This is a bit embarrassing. Our army has four main regiments with a total of 16,000 people. There are also seven independent regiments, ten temporary regiments and sixteen local columns. A total of
There are 55,000 men in the 31 regiments, and more than 15,000 guns."
"Wow!!" The applause rang out like crazy. The speed at which the troops were mobilized was really amazing, especially the more than 15,000 guns. This means that these troops have combat effectiveness, and this is also a real record.
Ah, it means that the 129th Division has not been idle at all in the past few months. Even if most of them are civilian guns, it is extremely amazing.
He Long immediately jumped up and said, "What did I say? What did I say? This one-eyed dragon is the most devilish. He really made a fortune in silence."
Lin Sanhu frowned and looked at Liu Bocheng. He had always been arrogant and compared himself with Mr. Peng and found that he actually lost to Liu Bocheng. He said hehe, "More people may not necessarily win the battle. The key is to see
The quality of commanders and fighters.”
Liu Bocheng didn't say anything and sat down directly.
Liu Dake stood up at this time and said, "As for the Shanxi New Army, the main force has expanded to 17,000 people, and the local columns are about 10,000 people. The entire army has about 12,000 guns." Because of this.
The Shanxi New Army is located close to Yan Xishan's army, so its expansion is relatively slow.
Mr. Zhu calculated that the total number of troops had exceeded 200,000. He nodded and said, "Today's meeting is mainly to convey the spirit of the Central Committee. General Li Zongren defeated the Japanese 10th and 5th Divisions in the decisive battle in Lunan, but the Japanese army
These two divisions are not the only ones. Central research believes that the Japanese army will soon launch an unprecedented offensive frenzy. According to intelligence, the Japanese army is preparing to concentrate its main force for the Wuhan battle. The scale of this battle may exceed two million people. Far better than
In the previous Battle of Songhu, our army, as the main force on the battlefield behind enemy lines, must also exert its own strength to cooperate with the frontal battlefield."
After speaking, Mr. Zhu saw that everyone was listening attentively and continued, "The central government decided that the 115th Division will send half of its troops to open base areas in northern Hebei and Chahar, the 120th Division will send half of its troops to Suiyuan to open up bases, and the 129th Division will send half of its troops to Suiyuan to open up bases.
Send half of the troops into southern Hebei to open up base areas. The Shanxi New Army is ready to take over the vacant base areas after the units are transferred. We have only one strategic goal, which is to open up base areas to destabilize the Japanese army's rear so that they can respond to the direction of Wuhan. Everyone has
Any questions?"
Lin Sanhu raised his hands high and said, "There are two problems. One is the command problem. When we set off from the border area, we received a large amount of equipment supplies, especially radio stations, so that we could have every company.
We have our own radio station, but after the current expansion of the army, we can only have each regiment have its own radio station, which greatly affects the convenience of command. Can we find a way to build more radio stations? Secondly, what about the supply of the troops? Especially
It is Su weapons and equipment, which is very powerful, but the ammunition is not universal. If the troops are too far away from the border area and cannot be captured from the battlefield, then the combat effectiveness of our main force will be greatly reduced."
Liu Dake continued, "There is also the issue of cadres. Many of our cadres have been promoted from the front line. Once the base area is opened again, I believe our soldiers will be fine for fighting, but the lack of government personnel will make the foundation of our base area unstable."
.”
Mr. Zhu said with a smile, "Everyone should know that we have many college students who have come to the border area. These people have been coming since the July 7th Incident. The central government has decided to recruit those students who are willing to join the army to study better."
Yes, those who pursue political progress will be sent to the grassroots troops, and everyone should be prepared to accept them."
College students? Everyone couldn't help but talk about it. It's not that they looked down on scholars. Everyone who could sit here knew the importance of scholars, but could these college students really cope with the complex environment behind enemy lines? Everyone expressed doubts.
Mr. Zhu continued, "As for the matter of the radio station, the Central Committee will find a way to solve it. The Central Committee of the main force will find a way to solve the problem of ammunition supply, but the local troops below must find a way to seize it. Everyone needs to know that these
It’s not easy to transport supplies to us, so we should solve it directly if we can solve it ourselves.”
