As the saying goes, the Deputy Chief of General Staff cut the mess quickly and did not give Zhou Weihan and others time to go back for discussion. He asked for an on-site meeting to finalize the formation of the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Column, the merger of the military region agencies, and the relevant personnel appointments and staffing were compiled into materials.
Report to headquarters immediately.
Zhou Weihan lowered his head and glanced at Tan Lin, who saw Tan Lin lowering his head and playing with the pen in his hand, seemingly unaware of Zhou Weihan's actions.
The deputy chief of staff saw the reaction of everyone present, picked up the tea cup and drank the tea in one gulp, then stood up and said: "I was just thinking about the meeting, and I forgot to eat breakfast. My stomach is full of water. I can't stand it."
Stay here, you can discuss it here and wait for me to come back!"
As soon as the deputy chief of staff left, the originally noisy conference room suddenly became silent. Everyone, you looked at me and I looked at you. No one spoke to break the strange atmosphere.
In the end, Tan Lin spoke up and said: "To win the war of resistance, we must unite as one. If we have big differences internally, how can we unite the forces of all walks of life outside. The basis of all this is that the party's unified leadership must be implemented!"
Wherever there are people, there are factions, and wherever there are people, there are hills. At present, there are two big hills in the Hebei, Shandong and Yu Military Region, Hebei, Shandong and Yu, and Shandong West.
Although we have been familiar with each other for more than half a year, how can we really get along with each other? Tan Lin, deputy chief of staff, understands what he means. It is not convenient for you to talk with me here, so you can have a good talk after I leave. What can you say?
Whatever, whatever ends today.
Therefore, Tan Lin emphasized one point, which is unified leadership. No matter what time it is, the party directs everything.
Because with the expansion of the base area, it will inevitably bring about the expansion of the affiliated forces. In order to better build the base area and fight against the enemy, the superiors clearly required that the party's unified leadership must be implemented. This is also the reason why the Hebei, Shandong and Henan Branch was established.
Yanzhou proposed that the representative organs of the Party Central Committee (central bureaus and sub-bureaus in various regions) and party committees at all levels (district party committees, prefectural committees) should be the highest leadership organs in each region, and provide unified leadership over the party, government, military and civilian work.
For this reason, after the meeting of the Northern Bureau, the official document issued clearly stipulated that the army must unconditionally implement the decisions and instructions of the superior and party committees at the same level, and the main force is no exception. The military leadership agency is a department of the party committee at the same level.
At the same time, it was also pointed out that "everything is subject to war" is the highest principle of unified leadership.
According to the instructions, the Taihang Branch quickly made a decision to abolish or merge certain leading organizations, and established four district party committees including Taibei, Tainan, Taiyue, and Jinan.
Each district party committee, prefectural committee, county committee, and district committee concurrently serve as political commissars or instructors of the army at the same level (military region, military division, county brigade, and district squadron).
Taking the Tainan base area as an example, in the new personnel appointments, Tunliu, northwest Li, and northwest Lu were included in the Tainan base area, and the Kongjie Independent Regiment and Liu Tianming 22nd Regiment were included in the Tainan Military Region.
Comrade Zhao Gang is appointed as a senior party official and political commissar of Tainan District, He Yicai is appointed as Communist Party member, Xing Zhiguo is appointed as deputy Communist Party member and chief of staff, and Li Tongzhang, the new director of the Political Department, is appointed.
The Tainan District Government was upgraded to the Tainan Administrative Office. Wang Ying was appointed as the director of the Administrative Office. The above five people constituted the district party committee members.
Tainan 1st Division is under the jurisdiction of the Independent Regiment, 22nd Regiment, 1st Division Basic Regiment, Shexian Basic Regiment and the 279th Regiment that is being formed. The affiliated units will be reorganized and given unified designations.
Liu Tianming was appointed as a district committee member, and Xiang Ying was appointed as political commissar and local senior official.
The Tainan Second Division has jurisdiction over 280, 281, Supplementary Regiment, Pingshun Basic Regiment, and Cixi Basic Regiment, which are also being reorganized and given unified designations.
Xu Dali was appointed as the secretary of the Second Division, the former political commissar Zhang Hao was transferred to the deputy director of the political department of the military region, and local senior official Guan Fachang also served as the political commissar.
The military region is directly under the artillery regiment, the cavalry regiment and the 39th regiment.
Of course, Zhou Weihan was not aware of the above changes in the Tainan base area, but although Tan Lin only said a few words, he reminded Zhou Weihan and others.
Only internal stability can overcome external struggles. Several people do not have to fight to the death for their own interests. Zhou Weihan just doesn't want to be restrained.
Zhou Weihan took the initiative to stand up and spread a circle of cigarettes for everyone, and immediately expressed his attitude, and the result was quickly discussed.
First of all, the military region organization consists of five departments: headquarters, political department, logistics department, health department, and anti-Japanese university branch.
The headquarters consists of the Staff Office, Operations Office, Communications Office, Management Office, Confidential Office, and Intelligence Office.
The Political Department consists of the Organization Department, the Propaganda Department, the Security Department, the Enemy Industry Department, the United Front Department, and the Human Armed Forces Department.
The Logistics Department is under the jurisdiction of the Factory Management Department, the Military Supplies Department, and the Food Department.
The organization structure of the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Column also had several departments, and the personnel list was quickly finalized. Most of the personnel of the former Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region were in the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Column, and most of the personnel of the former Western Shandong Military Region were in the military region's offices.
Zhao Bingzhang, chief of staff of the column, Cheng Qiwu, deputy chief of staff and chief of the staff division, Luo Benzhong, director of the political department, Zhu Guoming, deputy director, Zhang Faming, director of the munitions department, etc.
The combat force consists of 13 brigades, 14 brigades, 15 brigades, 16 brigades, as well as guard regiments, cavalry regiments, artillery regiments, automobile battalions, etc.
The 13th brigade commander and political commissar Jing Dagang has jurisdiction over the 1st, 2nd and 3rd regiments; the 14th brigade commander Wu Qin and political commissar Wang Lin have jurisdiction over the 4th, 5th and 6th regiments; the 15th brigade commander and political commissar Ding Wei has jurisdiction over 7,
Li Yunlong, commander and political commissar of the 8th and 9th regiments and the 16th brigade, has jurisdiction over the 10th, 11th and 12th regiments.
The guard regiment was adapted from the assault regiment, with regimental commander Dong Jiang, cavalry regiment commander Sun Desheng, political commissar Qin Fuwen, and artillery regiment commander Shen Yulin.
The regiment-level organization has 2,300 combat troops under its jurisdiction, and the personnel establishment of squads, platoons, companies, and battalions is clearly divided.
Infantry squad: 12 people
Including two three-person rifle groups, one three-person machine gun group, and one two-person 50 mortar group (1 50mm mortar, 30 rounds of 50mm Japanese grenades, 3 pistols, pistol bullets
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Rifle group: 1 rifle per person, 50 rounds of standard rifle ammunition, and 6 grenades.
The squad leader and team leader are individually equipped with pistols.
Infantry platoon: 40 people
It has three infantry squads, plus a platoon leader, deputy platoon leader, instructor, and a communications officer.
Infantry company: 150 people
three infantry platoons
Two 3-man mortar teams (1 60mm light mortar, 30 rounds of 60mm mortar shells, 3 pistols, 60 rounds of pistol bullets)
A cooking class of 12 people
Company headquarters: Chief and deputy company commanders, chief and deputy instructors, one cultural instructor, three communications officers, and four health workers.
Infantry battalion: 540 people
Three infantry companies of 150 men
Battalion Headquarters: Chief and deputy battalion commanders, chief and deputy instructors, combat staff and instructors, and guards, a total of 14 people
There is a 12-person communications class, a 12-person cooking class, a 12-person health team, and a 40-person security platoon directly under the battalion headquarters.
Infantry regiment: 2,300 men
Three infantry battalions (540 men)
An 82 mortar company is equipped with six 82 mortars and has a total of 108 people.
Three heavy machine gun companies, equipped with 27 Maxim heavy machine guns, 27 pack horses, and a total of 324 people.
There are 108 people in a baggage company and 108 people in a regiment headquarters security company, plus the cooking class, communications class, health team, and several regiment cadres.
The above mentioned are combat troops. In addition, there are certain auxiliary soldiers. Zhou Weihan preferred that each regiment should be added with a supplementary brigade of about 500 people, which could be drawn from local armed forces.
The supplementary brigade is specifically responsible for assisting combat troops in digging fortifications, transporting supplies, and replenishing troops at critical moments.
The above content is only on paper, and it is still difficult to implement it. For example, Jing Dagang's 13th Brigade currently only has the original Zhinan Military Division 1st Regiment and the Independent 1st Regiment, and Ding Wei's 15th Brigade only has the original 279th Regiment and 1st Independent Regiment.
29 regiment.
Only Wu Qin's 14th Brigade has three regiments, the Jinan Jigan Regiment, and the Third Independent Regiment, and Li Yunlong's 16th Brigade has the New First Regiment, the Independent Regiment, and the 36th Regiment.
In order to maintain combat effectiveness, it is best to directly bring up the basic regiments of the general division, but this will lead to an empty local defense force. After all, the base area is the foundation for development.
What Zhou Weihan means is that the original miscellaneous numbers set up by each military division and the main force for the purpose of expansion will be streamlined, and personnel will be enriched into combat units, so that every one can be fully staffed.
