On April 25, 1943, a telegram was sent from Yama Mountain, saying that Zhao Gang and his party had set off and were expected to arrive in Heze on the 27th.
However, Zhou Weihan was in Neihuang County, where the Zhinan Military Division is located. At present, the Hebei, Shandong and Henan columns were dispersed and the leadership team was divided into three. Director of the Political Department Luo Benzhong, Chief of Staff Zhao Bingzhang and local government personnel went to northern Anhui to take charge of carrying out political power there.
construction.
Deputy Chief of Staff Cheng Qiwu stayed in Dayangji to lead some staff of the General Staff Office to draw the sand table, while Deputy Director of the Political Department Zhu Guoming continued to assist the local government in completing the final work of land reform. It can be said that the leadership team each performed its own duties and had its own tasks.
Although Zhou Weihan was indeed free for a few days, he also served as the chief of staff of the military region, so he could only shoulder the heavy responsibility of training the military region's troops, especially the newly established twenty-four basic regiments, whose combat effectiveness must be formed as soon as possible.
"Comrade, the telegram forwarded by the military region, political commissar Zhao has already set off and is expected to arrive in Naihuang tomorrow!" The speaker was Li Ziwen, commissar and political commissar of the Zhinan Military Division.
When Zhou Weihan heard this, he made a sound and said: "Looking forward to the stars, looking forward to the moon, I always look forward to the arrival of political commissar Zhao. This giant Buddha is really difficult to get. It has been delayed for many days!"
Listening to Zhou Weihan's complaints, Li Ziwen almost couldn't help but laugh out loud. He even suspected that Zhou Weihan came to the Zhinan Military Division to wait on purpose.
Li Ziwen came over personally to deliver a telegram, obviously he had other business matters: "Commander ***, are you satisfied with the situation of our military divisions?"
Zhou Weihan glanced at Li Ziwen, and then said: "If I say that I am satisfied, will you put your heart in your stomach? When I come here, everyone in your military division looks like they are facing a powerful enemy. No matter how you look at it,
Are you coping with the inspection?"
This big hat was thrown off, causing Li Ziwen to complain again and again. Nowadays, the Zhinan Military Division has jurisdiction over five counties including Huang, Qingfeng, Nanle, Guancheng and Guanxian, but in terms of strength, it ranks among the seventh.
Laomo of a military division.
Originally, the Zhinan Military Division was the main force. With the establishment of the 13th Brigade, the main forces were all mobilized, including the 1st Main Regiment and the Su Weapon Independent Regiment. At that time, the military subdivision only had the 42nd Regiment and the Su Weapon Independent Regiment left.
Temporarily equipped local armaments.
The Zhinan Army Division is to contain the Japanese troops in Anyang to the west, to defend the East Asia Allied Autonomous Army north of the Zhangwei River, and to the east it needs to withstand the New Eighth Army garrisoned in Chaocheng. It has a heavy responsibility, so the military region can only let the Henan Army
The Fourth Independent Regiment of Yang Xiansheng's Department in the Northern Army Division was assigned to the Zhinan Military Division.
With the end of the war, the Zhinan Military Division has gone through a difficult period of weakness. The military region reorganized all its troops and at the same time transferred three newly established independent regiments to the Zhinan Military Division.
There are currently five regiments under the Zhinan Military Division. The original 42 regiment was reorganized into the Neihuang Independent Regiment. Yang Xiansheng's fourth independent regiment was reorganized into the Nanyue Independent Regiment. The remaining three regiments are Qingfeng Independent Regiment, Guancheng Independent Regiment and Guanxian Independent Regiment.
The independent regiment has lighter garrison tasks.
"Comrade **, our military division is currently in a difficult situation. The three newly established independent regiments have only about 1,500 people. Except for the Guancheng Independent Regiment, all members use Soviet weapons. The other two regiments are all old
There are only a few miscellaneous weapons, not to mention heavy machine guns, even light machine guns!"
"The guys in my hands are not tough, and the soldiers are not very enthusiastic about training. I am not complaining about you, but I have to make something clear. When the military region forms a new batch of basic regiments, the Guancheng Independent Regiment will be used
The weapons and equipment are not allocated by superiors, they all use Soviet weapons from our military divisions, which can reduce a lot of pressure on the military divisions!" Li Ziwen said.
Zhou Weihan snorted coldly when he heard this: "Hey, what are you doing if you are not pouring out your bitterness to me? The situation in other military divisions is not any better than yours!"
Although that is said, the situation is really different. Sometimes it is not a good thing to develop too fast. The Japanese and puppet troops in the defense area of Zhinan Military Division have been wiped out, and it is no longer possible to continue to make money internally, and now Zhinan
The development of military divisions has reached its upper limit.
The East Asia Alliance Autonomous Army in the north has always maintained contact with the Jinan Military Region. It may change into the Eighth Route Army at some point. It is obviously not suitable to fight with it anymore. The New Eighth Army is the target of the united front. The two sides are currently in peace, which is obviously even more impossible.
Only the Japanese troops in the Anyang area still have some profit to make, but the sphere of influence of the local Japanese and puppet troops has been compressed to Anyang County and along the railway. Although the Japanese and puppet troops have seriously lost their territory, looking at it from another angle, their forces have been concentrated.
.
With the current strength of the Zhinan Military Division, the railway line where the Japanese and puppet troops are stationed is obviously a tough one and will not bring much profit. It may even suffer losses and the army will naturally not be able to develop.
Zhou Weihan understood the difficulty. He was not just here to inspect the Zhinan Military Region this time. Naturally, he wanted to help solve the problem. Li Ziwen was looking for the right opportunity to express his bitterness here: "Commander, you should talk to the Jinan Military Region."
That’s it, a piece of land as big as the Zhangbei area cannot be given away for free, the brother troops in the Southern Hebei Military Region are very wealthy!"
"Of course not!" Zhou Weihan said. Two days ago, he met with the Song political commissar of the Southern Hebei Military Region in Linzhang. His entourage was equipped with a Type 81 rifle. Zhou Weihan said he was not jealous, which is a lie.
At the Hebei-Shandong-Henan Branch meeting before the war, the deputy chief of staff gave everyone the task of raising food. Everyone went out to beg for alms, and Zhou Weihan came back to pay.
The Jinan Military Region has prepared 80 million kilograms of various types of food, as well as 5,000 August 1 rifles, 300 light machine guns, and 60 heavy machine guns, equipped with three basic amounts of ammunition, and 50 small cannons and grenades.
Several.
These grains and weapons and equipment began to be transported one after another. The southern Hebei Military Region was able to provide such strong support not only because of the exchange of Zhangbei area. The most important thing was that the southern Hebei arsenal was able to grow in scale thanks to the batch of machinery and equipment that Zhou Weiguo bought from Tianjin.
.
"Hurry up and organize a transportation team in the next two days. This batch of food and weapons and equipment is used to solve the problem. It needs to be transported to various places in batches. As for you..."
"Leave 10 million kilograms of grain for distribution to the comrades of the Zhinan Prefectural Committee, and leave 1,000 rifles, 30 light machine guns, six heavy machine guns, and some small cannons for weapons and equipment!"
After Zhou Weihan finished speaking, Li Ziwen quickly stood up and said: "Commissioner, this is great, I know you won't come in vain this time!"
"The days will only get better and better in the future, but you have to clearly understand the positioning of the local military region. In addition to shouldering the garrison task, another important task is to transport troops to the main force. Situations like this will happen again. You just have to
What's the use of pouring out your bitterness on me?" Zhou Weihan said.
