"Choose me a thousand 38 covers. One of the thousand will be officially released. Each gun will be equipped with 150 rounds of bullets. I will go to the military area in person. Such a big thing as the expansion of the army cannot be just in the telegram.
Report, maybe it will alert the headquarters!" The commander immediately made a decision.
"Also, I will also bring this proposal from Wang Ping and Cheng Xiao to the military region. Such a good proposal must be promoted throughout the military region!"
Wang Ping and Cheng Xiao didn't know that their proposal was being uploaded step by step through the hands of the commander, and in the end, even the headquarters was alerted.
Although many people in the Independent Regiment raised objections to reducing the size of the militia and local troops, Jiang Hongchun, the director of the logistics department, was very happy.
With the army suddenly losing so many retired soldiers and cadres, the independent regiment's logistical pressure will definitely be reduced a lot.
When the local labor force increases, we can open up more wasteland and diversify the land. The food harvested in the autumn harvest will definitely be more than usual. In this case, the independent regiment will also be able to obtain much more supplies from Laiyuan, which is completely a
A virtuous cycle that is conducive to independent groups.
Just when Wang Ping thought that things in the Independent Group were slowly getting on track and he could breathe a sigh of relief, Deng Hongtao came.
"Captain, something happened!" Deng Hongtao said anxiously as soon as he entered the war room.
Although it was still very cold, we could tell from the beads of sweat on Deng Hongtao's forehead that he had rushed all the way to find him.
"What's going on?" Wang Ping, Cheng Xiao, and Chief of Staff Zeng Quan looked at Deng Hongtao at the same time.
"A platoon leader in the field hospital committed suicide, and he was an old Red Army soldier!" Deng Hongtao replied immediately.
Political commissar Cheng Xiao frowned and asked: "Why did he commit suicide when he was an old Red Army soldier and a platoon leader? Not surprisingly, after returning to the army, he will at least be a deputy company commander. If he performs well, becoming a company commander will not be a problem!"
"
Deng Hongtao shook his head and replied: "The key is that he cannot return to the army. During the battle, one of his legs was blown up by a Japanese artillery shell and could not be saved."
"After learning that he only had one leg, his sexual desire was very unstable. Then after hearing the news that we were going to give her 20 yuan to let him leave, he couldn't figure it out, and then he snatched one from the nurse.
Take a knife and commit suicide directly!"
"What happened to the field hospital? Even a seriously injured person cannot be relied on. What a good soldier. Neither the Long March nor the Japanese killed him, but he died in our own field hospital in the end. If this spreads out, the impact will be very bad
"No, this matter must be dealt with seriously." Political commissar Cheng Xiao became angry immediately, standing at the headquarters and yelling mercilessly.
Then he suggested to Wang Ping: "Commander, I suggest that the director of the field hospital should be remembered once!"
Wang Ping did not speak, but frowned and asked Deng Hongtao: "Director Deng, he must not be the only soldier and cadre in the field hospital who has suicidal thoughts!"
Deng Hongtao nodded quickly and replied: "Yes, regimental commander, many soldiers who had to leave the army because of disability have this idea. In order to persuade them, I specially assigned five cadres from the Political Department to guard the field hospital and persuade them every day.
them!"
"This is not okay. If the fundamental problem is not solved, this kind of suicide incident may happen again!" Wang Ping shook his head and replied.
"And the political commissar, no matter how much punishment you give the director of the field hospital, or even replace him, if those soldiers insist on committing suicide, they won't be able to stop him even if they want."
"The fundamental reason why this situation occurs is that our treatment of these disabled soldiers and cadres is too one-size-fits-all and irresponsible!"
"Twenty dollars, a cadre missing a leg, and no family nearby. If we let them leave the army, will they survive?"
"Even if there are family members nearby, after becoming disabled, they will become a burden to the family and they will not want to go back."
"Also, there are many cadres and soldiers among them who can't do anything except fighting. If we let them go back like this, why should they support themselves for the rest of their lives? Are we giving them twenty yuan?"
"But we have always done this. And they are indeed not suitable to stay in the army." Deng Hongtao frowned and asked.
Wang Ping thought about it and replied: "It would have been understandable to do so during the Long March. After all, we couldn't have taken them with us. But it's different now. We have a base and we can definitely think of ways to keep them in the army and give them full play."
Remaining heat!”
"You know, they are all veterans, some are cadres, and they are absolutely loyal to our Eighth Route Army."
"The head of the regiment is right. We must not send these cadres and soldiers who have made meritorious service and were disabled from fighting the Japanese for just twenty yuan!" Cheng Xiao's face also became serious, because he thought of this.
The old comrades who were left behind due to various reasons during the Long March. If nothing else happened, these old comrades must have died.
Then he continued: "Invalids are also divided into severe and light. Now each village is forming a guerrilla force. Although the soldiers and cadres with slightly less disabilities cannot continue to fight in the main force, they will definitely not forget various tactical skills.
, Director Deng, please select 130 people for me, and I plan to send them to each village to serve as guerrilla captains, or even to serve as captains of the district squad or district squadron!"
Wang Ping directly affirmed: "This method is good, I agree! Ordinary soldiers can go to smaller villages to become guerrilla captains and continue to use their remaining talents. In this case, they will still be members of our independent group, and the independent group will continue to support them
Cadres at lower levels are sent to larger villages. Cadres and soldiers whose actions are not subject to battalion commanders can directly join the local troops. In this way, the style of the main force can be brought to the local troops."
"What about those cadres and soldiers who are more seriously disabled? For example, those who lost a leg, there are more than thirty people in the field hospital!" Deng Hongtao's frown did not relax and he asked.
"It's easy to solve!" Wang Ping replied.
"As long as you have crutches, you can still walk on one leg."
"Didn't the Logistics Department run a breeding farm and a clothing factory? Let them approach the Logistics Department and replace the soldiers who are in good health to join the combat troops!"
"In addition, the Logistics Department and Director Deng can also think of ways to do it themselves, such as setting up a repair shop and finding people to teach seriously injured people how to repair and maintain weapons!"
"In addition, you can open up wasteland in the station, grow food, and grow vegetables!"
"In a word, now that we have a base, we must not drive out the disabled soldiers and cadres like we did in the past for twenty yuan. That is extremely irresponsible."
"Of course, if there are cadres and soldiers who are willing to go back, we can't watch, but the subsidy standard must be raised!"
"This is no problem!" Deng Hongtao affirmed!
"Most of the warrior cadres will definitely choose to stay in the army after knowing our method, so the subsidy we gave them will be kept. If anyone voluntarily goes back, the subsidy standard can be increased to fifty yuan!"
"As long as nothing happens, these oceans will be enough for them to make fire for more than ten years!"
Wang Ping nodded and affirmed: "This standard is not bad, fifty yuan. If you do it well, you can start a small business in the county, so they don't have to worry about it for the rest of their lives. If they have this idea, our independent group will also want to
Try to help!”
"Yes, leader, I will go to the hospital now to tell everyone the good news!" Deng Hongtao replied very happily.
