Chapter 250 Weaken the branches first, then dig the taproot
Recalling the difficulties he encountered when reorganizing the Northeast Anti-Resistance Alliance, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "When we gathered the Fourth and Fifth Armies, we had the full support of the commander-in-chief and two army commanders who were personally in charge. I haven’t caused any trouble yet.”
"But the integration of the First Route Army and the Third Route Army has always been a bit scratching. Even when the Seventh Army within the Second Route Army was brought under unified command, the organization was adjusted, and the use of cadres was disrupted, it caused a lot of trouble. During the incident, even some division-level cadres of the Third Route Army, when they withdrew to the Xiajiang base area to rest and recuperate, they only wanted to get supplies from me and replenish ammunition and equipment. As for unified command and centralized use, there was no way at all. Willing."
"When it comes to reducing the organization, I even slap the table with me. This is especially obvious for those cadres who came from the forestry team. In the end, the large living environment continues to deteriorate. The troops are scattered and fighting, and they can only be defeated by the enemy. The problem was solved after the enemy was devoured, and many troops dispersed to carry out guerrilla attacks, and it would be difficult for them to survive."
"The long and arduous guerrilla war has made some army leaders accustomed to fighting on their own. Suddenly there is a superior above their heads. They say they want to unified command, but in fact they have found a mother-in-law for you. No one will be comfortable with it. , Although some units in the Guannei Army have strong guerrilla habits, they are much better than the original Anti-Japanese Alliance in this regard."
"At the very least, there is no problem in obeying commands and orders resolutely. Although we are still in the situation of dispersed guerrillas, we can gather energy and disperse it. When necessary, with an order from the superiors, we can fight through mountains of swords and seas of fire without frowning. Fight hard and fight hard. , there are no problems.”
"Even in order to survive, no matter how far they run or how dispersed they are, they always keep in mind their mission and what kind of army they are. With an order, they can immediately return to the team and assemble. The boss cannot hide his flaws. Advantages are advantages. They cannot be because of some The shortcomings ignore the advantages of us cadres."
"As for changing guerrilla habits, the boss can do it without removing one or two cadres from their posts. Now that our army has these problems, our cadres cannot be blamed. I still say that the board cannot They all hit our grassroots cadres."
"I think the emergence of these problems is not a bad thing at all. It has also exposed some weaknesses of our troops, as well as some not-so-good signs. It is better to expose these problems early than to expose them late. The earlier The sooner we are exposed, the sooner we can solve the problem to avoid suffering greater unnecessary losses."
"Boss, I think the remaining troops of the Jinsui Military Region who are currently cooperating with us should not withdraw from the battlefield. They will temporarily withdraw to Youyu territory and adjust the mentality of the troops, especially the mentality of the military and political officers at all levels. They must be adjusted well. , they are all old bones, and their overall outlook and ability are not bad. As long as they are adjusted well, I think these cadres will play the role that their superiors expect them to play."
"After the acting commander arrived in northern Shanxi, and with this respected old chief personally in charge, I think some battlefield consolidation can still be effective. As for the decision of the main force of the Jinsui Military Region to return to the division, I support it. I let Chen Hanzhang A special train will be mobilized to go to Baotou immediately, and two engineering companies will be immediately dispatched to clean and inspect the Baotou-Datong railway line."
"Boss, I have to say that the enemy workers and mass work of the brother troops in Guannei have been done very well. Even though the situation of the Daqingshan guerrilla detachment is so difficult, the underground work in the western section of the Pingsui Line is still so good. It’s so good that the entire Chinese railway staff took the initiative to assist our army in transportation without even having to mobilize.”
"According to the current distribution situation of the main force of the Jinsui Military Region on the Baotou front line, I think it is completely possible to withdraw the main force from the Baotou front line within two or three days. As long as the main force of the Jinsui Military Region withdraws, the current situation of empty troops in northwest Shanxi can be effectively relief.”
Regarding the unconcealed appreciation in Yang Zhen's tone, the boss shook his head, but said nothing. These things cannot be explained clearly in a short time. If you want to know more details, even the boss is not very clear. , the enemy engineering departments in each base area have their own methods, and the central government has only issued one standard on this matter.
After thinking about it, the boss turned the topic to the battlefield in northern Shanxi: "Comrade Yang Zhen, the Japanese reinforcements are now arriving in North China. With the arrival of the Japanese reinforcements, in the face of the development and changes of the new situation, our army has In the war situation in North China, there is bound to be an adjustment, and our troops from the southern Hebei Military Region have rushed to the battlefield, and the troops from the Hebei, Shandong and Henan Military Region are fighting hard to get rid of the entanglement of the Japanese troops in southeastern Shanxi."
"At the same time, the Taiyue Military Region troops have also completed their assembly. It can be said that Shanxi has concentrated almost the entire main force and elite troops of our army, except for the Shandong and Central China New Fourth Army. In other words, as the battle progresses, our army has invested There will be more and more troops."
"Now the entire Northern Shanxi campaign, no, to be precise, how to fight the entire Shanxi war, how to solve the problem of cooperation between troops inside and outside the pass, what new ideas do you have, take advantage of this rare opportunity to do it all at once Speak up so we can study and solve it."
Regarding the boss's question, Yang Zhen thought about it and said: "I have an idea, but there is a problem that is difficult to solve now. The battlefield in northern Shanxi is actually just the main battlefield in this Shanxi battle. To put it bluntly, it is equivalent to It is now the frontal battlefield among the two major battlefields in the country."
"Since the various base areas of our army on both sides of the Tongpu Railway have been fully mobilized, they are actually equivalent to the guerrilla battlefield behind enemy lines. The small Shanxi battlefield is actually a matter of cooperation between the two major battlefields. At present, This is the problem that should be solved most urgently."
"How to effectively combine this frontal battlefield with the guerrilla battlefield behind enemy lines, and how to effectively combine the two battlefields, the key depends on what this brain should do, how to use the current changes in the situation, the two theaters can learn from each other's strengths and complement each other's weaknesses Cooperate and coordinate operations."
"Boss, I do not advocate that our army has rushed to the battlefield in Shanxi, or that all the troops that are rushing here are devoted to northern Shanxi. There is no need to say this. The entire northern Shanxi, including the current situation in northwestern Shanxi, is powerless. With the expense of supplying such a force, food alone can completely bring down the entire northwest Shanxi and Beiyue Districts."
"My suggestion is to focus on the Anti-Japanese Alliance in the northern Shanxi battlefield. After all, with our equipment, we should bear the heavy burden of gnawing bones. In addition to the deployment of Jinsui in the entire northern Shanxi battlefield, Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei is now in various positions in the northern Shanxi battlefield. The first branch, in places where the Anti-Japanese Alliance troops are insufficient, ensures the control of various passes on the front line of the Inner Great Wall, in addition to serving as security and cover tasks."
"But the troops that are mobilized must have certain frontal combat capabilities. Once the Japanese troops pass through the pass and try to bypass our army's flanks, they must be able to slow down the Japanese troops' penetration speed and weaken the Japanese troops' penetration strength. Buy time for the mobilization of troops in the rear."
"The rest of the main forces, no matter which military region they belong to, as long as they participate in the Shanxi battlefield, they will deploy along the entire line on both sides of the Tongpu Railway, carry out large-scale raids and harassment warfare against the Japanese rear, and cut off the Japanese's logistics supply lines. Attack his small force and disperse part of the Japanese army by restricting its logistical supply lines."
"This time Taiyuan was completely moved by Yang Jicai. All the food and ammunition needed by the Japanese army to counterattack northern Shanxi can only be supplemented by Hebei. Not only is its logistics supply line long, but no matter which direction it goes, it must be in Passing within our army's base area is a relatively good opportunity for our army to leverage its strengths in guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare."
"Especially for our army in the Shanxi battlefield. Currently, except for the Beiyue District of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, which suffered excessive losses due to the area that was the top priority of the Japanese army's raids last year, the rest of the Taihang and Taiyue Military Region troops have completed their assembly. , even if the enemy sends troops to escort, our army can completely concentrate the main force in a certain area, use our strengths in mountain warfare and close combat, and use mountain movement ambush warfare to beat him."
"My suggestion is that the major areas of the Shanxi battlefield should not confront the Japanese reinforcements head-on. Instead, let the main force of the reinforcements pass over and specifically attack their supply lines and attack their transport convoys. At the same time, they should attack areas where the Japanese army's control is weak in various areas of Shanxi. , carry out a comprehensive counterattack."
"Strive to take advantage of this battle to attract the main force of the Japanese army to northern Shanxi, and restore as much as possible the situation in each base area before the Japanese army's sweep last year. The most fundamental thing is to pull out the nails that the Japanese army penetrated deep into our base area, and fully restore The integrity of my base."
"Boss, I think the current situation on the battlefield is like a group of people fighting with a strong man. Although the strength of each of our troops on the battlefield cannot be compared to the Japanese army individually, the whole army combined , both in terms of military strength and strength, they are superior to the Japanese army."
"It's just like a weak person cannot beat a strong man, but if we, a group of weak people, swarm up and beat him up, even if we can't kill him, we can still beat him to the point of paralysis. Even if the tactics are used properly, we may not be able to defeat him. You can’t kill him.”
"The anti-alliance troops in the northern Shanxi battlefield held down the head of the Japanese soldier in the Shanxi battlefield and hugged his waist. The brother troops took advantage of this opportunity to swarm up and concentrate their forces and chop off his limbs, just like the punishment of quartering the body with five horses in the past. They had the force to cut the Japanese troops into pieces on the battlefield in Shanxi and completely cripple them."
"If we take over the whole of Shanxi in this battle, it is not necessary, and it will also bring us a lot of trouble politically, but we can control as many rural areas in Shanxi as possible and trap the Japanese troops in various towns. Among them, first weaken its branches, and when the situation allows, dig out its main root in one fell swoop."
"It's like killing a chicken. Since I kill you directly with one knife, it will cause a lot of trouble, but I can pluck out all your chicken feathers so that others can't catch it and say that my chicken is stolen. And I don't I’ll give you food to eat, but I’ll drag you down until you’re skin and bones, and I’m trying to figure out how to kill you.”
"Especially this kind of mobile ambush battle, our army is no stranger to battles that target its logistics supply lines. In 1937, our army crossed the Yellow River eastward and fought many such battles in succession, such as Pingxingguan, Xiangtangpu, and Yanmenguan. , Qi Gen Village, etc., we have fought this kind of battle many times."
"In this kind of battle of ambushing the enemy's heavy troops, I think the brother troops in the pass are still familiar with it. It can even be said that we are very familiar with it. One of our troops is not enough to compete with the main force of the Japanese army, but we can accumulate small victories into big victories. , destroyed the Japanese army’s baggage troops, starved the Japanese troops to death, and trapped them on the front line.”
"At the same time, the troops of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region in Hebei can choose some capable armed forces and take advantage of the opportunity when the Japanese army has no time to take care of them to return to the Jizhong Plain. Even if they cannot restore the original Jizhong base area, they will still make this Jizhong the granary of the Japanese army." Zhongpingyuan, it turned him upside down."
