"Brother Weihan, you called me here so late today to discuss the adaptation!"
Before Zhou Weihan could speak, Guo Huaiwu directly revealed the truth: "In the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, I and Brother Fanyu all came from the 29th Army. The five of us have reached an agreement and are determined to defect to your Eighth Route Army. However, there are still internal problems.
There are several branches that merged from other mountains."
"These are all brothers who want to fight the Japanese. We agreed to go down the mountain to fight the Japanese. I heard what they said. These brothers are used to being loose. They can't stand the strict discipline of the Eighth Route Army. They want to take their brothers back to Linlu Mountain.
, I hope your army will understand!”
After Guo Huaiwu finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Weihan. Zhou Weihan felt relieved. He also had some understanding of the situation of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army.
Guo Huaiwu said that his brothers were all fighting Japanese troops. Zhou Weihan agreed with this, but it was inevitable that some of them were good and bad, or that they were not suitable to stay in the Eighth Route Army.
If this group of people were forcibly retained for reorganization, conflicts would arise, which would embarrass the leader, Guo Huaiwu, and lead to bad blood with the Eighth Route Army. This was not what Zhou Weihan wanted to see.
"Brother Guo, any of your brothers from the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army who want to join the Eighth Route Army are welcome by our Eighth Route Army and are willing to make a living for themselves. I will send someone back to transport a batch of grain and deliver it to the brothers. You can't fight the Japanese and still be hungry.
Eat your belly!"
Zhou Weihan's words actually imply another meaning. The Eighth Route Army is not only reorganizing the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, but also the territory occupied by the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army in Linbei.
In fact, the current situation of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army is not easy, it is only better than when it was the king in the Linlu Mountain area.
In the TV series, the bandit who dominates the mountain is always drinking heavily and eating meat. In fact, it is good if he can barely satisfy his hunger.
If the local products are rich and the food production is enough to feed the people, who will fall into the trap of others?
The northern part of Lin County is mountainous, the land is barren, and the key is lack of water.
In good years, the common people can barely have enough to eat, and even the landlords may not have much surplus food.
In the old days when we were the kings of the mountains, we could occasionally rob the Japs' transport teams and rob the rich landlords who worked for the Japs.
But now the little devils have been wiped out, and the properties of some wealthy landlords have been confiscated.
There was a lot of money and food seized, but we couldn't bear the large number of people, so we were left with nothing.
In terms of fighting, the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army still has some combat effectiveness, but in terms of developing territory and revitalizing the economy, even Hu Fanyu, a military strategist, has no way to do it.
"The relationship is good, brothers Wei and Han, you Eighth Route Army soldiers are benevolent and righteous, don't worry, I will send these brothers directly back to the mountains, and I promise not to go against the Eighth Route Army in the future!" Guo Huaiwu promised, patting his chest.
Zhou Weihan chuckled, not sure what will happen in the future. The north of Lin County is occupied by the Eighth Route Army, and the south is occupied by the Central Army. A group of people can't really eat bark and leaves in the mountains.
However, this is not something that should be considered at the moment. Zhou Weihan glanced at Guo Huaiwu and the two, and said immediately: "This time I came to Lin County in a hurry, there was actually an emergency. The two brothers are not outsiders, so I am not dissatisfied with you!"
"Our Eighth Route Army's external designation is the Eighteenth Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army. It has three divisions and is affiliated with the Second War Zone. Do you two know this?"
"Of course we know that!"
"Now the National Government is planning to establish another division. The establishment of this division will fall on our Eighth Route Army in Tainan. It will most likely fall on our Eighth Route Army in Licheng, Pingshun, and Lin County. How exactly do we know how to do it now?
I'm not sure, so I can only let you know first!" Zhou Weihan said.
"Haha, brother Weihan, do I, Guo Huaiwu, only recognize you as the Eighth Route Army? In the Eighth Route Army, I only recognize you. I don't care about other things!" Guo Huaiwu said very cooperatively.
The entire Tainan Military Region attaches great importance to the reorganization of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, otherwise Zhou Weihan would not have come personally.
Regarding the conditions for the reorganization, Zhou Weihan took the initiative to make it clear: "Brother Guo, after the reorganization of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, the Tainan Military Region decided to grant the Tainan Military Region the designation of the 29th Regiment. All military cadres will not move. However, after the reorganization, each battalion and company
Every level of army must be assigned political cadres!"
"Brother Zhang Hao told us about this in advance. Since we have accepted the adaptation, we have no objection!"
"And I heard from Zhang Hao that our Tainan Military Region has a cadre school!" Guo Huaiwu said, scratching his head: "Brothers Uighur and Han, to tell you the truth, I have one here, except for Hu Fanyu who is a little educated.
The rest of them are just big dicks!"
"Let's see if the military region can give a few of us a chance to learn?"
Zhou Weihan was stunned after hearing this. He really didn't expect Guo Huaiwu to take the initiative to mention this.
According to the original reorganization plan, after the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army accepted the reorganization, it continued to stay in Lin County. The military cadres remained unchanged, and the military region arranged political cadres to adapt them to the style of the Eighth Route Army through subtle changes.
But since Guo Huaiwu took the initiative to cooperate, the plan can be changed.
"Brother Guo, have you thought about it? Are you handing over military power in disguise?" Zhou Weihan said with a smile.
"What's wrong with military power? The Eighth Route Army still talks about this? How come your consciousness is not as good as mine?"
"Okay, in that case, let's get this done sooner rather than later. By then, the 29th Regiment will follow me north to Wuyi, where the troops will change uniforms and receive formal training!" Zhou Weihan took advantage of the heat to hit the railroad.
After that, Zhou Weihan personally sent the two of them to the gate of the station, and Zhang Hao followed him without knowing why.
After saying goodbye, Zhou Weihan said to Zhang Hao: "What did you say to Guo Huaiwu?"
"Chief, I really didn't say anything else. It was Guo Huaiwu who took the initiative to ask about the rules of our Eighth Route Army, but Lao Guo is a smart man!"
"Yes, he is indeed a smart man. He didn't ask for any conditions at all, but he was very cooperative!"
After Guo Huaiwu returned, he pretended that nothing was wrong. Early the next morning, he gathered the main figures of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army together and announced that he would accept the Eighth Route Army's adaptation.
Since we had prepared before, this incident did not cause too much trouble.
The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army has a total of more than 2,300 people, about 400 of whom want to return to Linlushan Mountain, and about 1,900 who follow Guo Huaiwu to accept the reorganization.
In fact, these 400 people are not like those from other hills who were unwilling to accept the adaptation, as Guo Huaiwu said. Instead, they were removed by Guo Huaiwu on his own initiative, such as the leader who smoked big cigarettes and liked to make money.
Guo Huaiwu was also very loyal. The troops who accepted the reorganization left three days of rations, and the rest were left for those who entered the mountains.
Zhou Weihan contacted Zhao Gang on the mountain through the radio early in the morning, explained the situation and asked him to prepare.
At the same time, the Lin County Guerrilla Brigade dispatched three squadrons to switch defenses with the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army.
When Zhou Weihan arrived with his people, Guo Huaiwu had been waiting for a long time.
"Comrade Guo Huaiwu, on behalf of the Tainan Military Region of the Eighth Route Army, I announce the reorganization order!"
"The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army was officially reorganized into the 29th Regiment of the Tainan Military Region. Comrade Guo Huaiwu was appointed as the commander of the 29th Regiment, and Comrade Hu Fanyu was appointed as the chief of staff. The 29th Regiment can go north to Wuyi to receive redress training!"
"Yes!" Guo Huaiwu and Hu Fanyu saluted with a military salute.
The Tainan Military Region assigned the designation to the main regiment of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. The Eighth Route Army headquarters and division headquarters agreed with this, and the Tainan Military Region also had no objections.
The Eighth Route Army has always been very sincere about the reorganization of the anti-Japanese armed forces, and even pays more attention to it than its direct troops.
