Three hundred and fiftieth chapters return to the heart like an arrow
Yang Zhen looked at his subordinates who were meeting him for the first time, but he didn't know that the leaders of the 4th and 5th detachments were also secretly looking at him. They all wanted to see what this little company commander of the 129th Division was like.
What a difference. It can actually make such a big noise in just a few years.
There are many people in the Red Army who are division commanders and even army commanders at this age. But he is the only one who has become the military commander of a large strategic area at a young age. Not only has he laid down a large base area in the Northeast with his bare hands, but
Now he has become the political commissar of the New Fourth Army and his immediate boss. At his age, should he be a regiment commander or a battalion commander?
As senior commanders, they all know the situation in southern Anhui. To be honest, as veterans who have been on the battlefield, they all believe that based on the entire troop deployment and troop and firepower configuration of the three theaters, once a war really breaks out, southern Anhui will
Even if the troops can stand out, they still have to shed a layer of skin.
The troops and equipment of the two sides are not on the same line at all, and the difference is not even a slight difference. Moreover, this time the southern Anhui army was in a passive situation from the beginning of the transfer, and the initiative was in the hands of others. It was a big battle, but a small battle.
Countless military commanders all understand what this situation means.
But this young man actually brought out the southern Anhui army almost completely. Although it also suffered certain losses, compared to the entire southern Anhui army, these losses were nothing, but they still managed to survive.
The vitality of the Wannan army. The casualties and disappearances of more than a thousand people are still acceptable for a force of nearly ten thousand people.
Everyone here is a senior general, and they are very clear about the situation and actual situation faced by the military headquarters in southern Anhui during the transfer. This transfer to the north is said to be commanded by the military commander. But everyone knows that the real big decision is still made by this young man.
The decision made by the military and political commissar.
Without this young military and political commissar in charge of decision-making, I decided to take a personal risk and lead a small force to attract the main force of the entire third theater area, mobilize surrounding enemy forces, and open a channel for the main force. This time, despite being besieged on all sides, the Southern Anhui Army could
If you rush out, the losses you will suffer will probably be much greater. Based on this alone, no one dares to ask themselves what they can do better in that kind of environment.
However, not only did the main force of the southern Anhui army stand out, it could even basically control the losses to a negligible level. The loss of more than a thousand people relatively retained a large number of proven cadres and a group of old troops that had been tested in actual combat.
, and many talents, using the metaphor of "neglect" is not an exaggeration.
Throughout the southern Anhui army's march north, strong frontal attacks and flanking detours complemented each other, and attacks from the east and west and large-scale maneuvers complemented each other. Throughout the entire combat process, the principle of concentrating troops and firepower was always adhered to. The tactics of seizing the key points and breaking through one point. Even these
The veteran who has been on the battlefield for many years has to give a thumbs up. He also has to say in his heart that this battle was really exciting.
Seeing the serious-faced military and political commissar of this young man who, in many people's words, has not even grown a hair yet, has become the chief military officer of a large strategic area, the two detachment commanders present couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.
One sentence: "You are too young, your future life is really scary."
Does Yang Zhen know what these senior commanders say about him? He has always been resolute and decisive, and feels that he has said enough. He paused and said: "I will not participate in the establishment of the Huainan Military Region. The troops heading north will rest until the 17th
On the same day, we will set off for Northern Jiangsu on time and meet up with the Northern Jiangsu headquarters."
The newly announced captain of the fifth detachment, who was promoted from the fifth detachment captain to the commander of the Huainan Military Region, which unified the fourth and fifth detachments, opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Yang Zhen's wave. Yang Zhen looked at this meritorious detachment.
The distinguished old man smiled and said: "Commander, I know what you want to say."
"To the New Fourth Army, I am just a passerby. To be honest, I came to southern Anhui and was ordered to restore the crisis situation of the southern Anhui army. Now that the crisis has been resolved, for me, the task has been completed. From now on, the work of the New Fourth Army will be done by
The newly formed East China Bureau will be in charge, and it’s time for me to retire."
"When we get to Northern Jiangsu, it's time to hand over my position as political commissar, first secretary of the Southeast Bureau, and first secretary of the military branch. If you have anything, you'd better report it directly to the East China Bureau. Regarding the formation of Huainan
I will not be involved in the specific work of the military region."
"In today's meeting, I just conveyed the central government's next deployment on the future struggle against the enemy on both sides of Jinpu Road. And I believe that as long as everyone works hard, under the leadership of the central government and the military, we will create an anti-Japanese war in the Jianghuai region.
A new situation.”
"This time during the breakout process, the Third Regiment has been in the most difficult place to block the attack. Coupled with some factors that we did not want to see, the Third Regiment suffered heavy losses and was somewhat damaged. I hope that the Huainan Military Region will
A few leaders can complete them in the shortest time. After all, they are now within the organization of your Huainan Military Region."
Having said this, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "Everyone, I am interrupting you for a few days. I will take my leave when the special agent team and the teaching team have recovered their strength. I don't know when we can see each other again. I hope to see you again.
When we meet, I can see that the Huainan Military Region is more energetic under your leadership."
Although this meeting can be regarded as an important meeting, it was still very short in accordance with Yang Zhen's usual style. After conveying the central government's order on the adjustment of the army establishment and personnel in the eastern Anhui region, not even a single superfluous word was said.
, Yang Zhen announced the adjournment of the meeting.
Walking out of the venue, Yang Zhen looked at the sky where light snow had drifted. He shook his head and sighed secretly in his heart. In the blink of an eye, it had been nearly three months since he traveled from Northeast China to Yan'an and then to southern Anhui. He watched the snow falling continuously in the sky.
The little snowflakes are coming, Yang Zhen really misses the flying snow in the Northeast at this time.
It turned out that when he was in southern Anhui, he had been in a state of intense fighting and transfer. The surrounding situation left him no time, let alone the mind, to think about the Northeast. He still didn't realize that he had left the Northeast where he had been living and working for several years. Now he is in a state of intense fighting and transfer.
When he was free, although he was still in Wandong, his heart had already flown back to the Northeast.
After the troops rested until January 17, Yang Zhen declined repeated requests from the military and political leaders of the eastern Anhui region to stay. He led the special agent group and the teaching corps, and after replenishing some ammunition, under the alternating cover of the 4th and 5th detachments, he went to
The East China Bureau and the headquarters of Northern Jiangsu were relocated to Yancheng.
Although most of the routes along the way are within various anti-Japanese base areas, which are relatively safe. The central government still attaches great importance to Yang Zhen's transfer. In addition to ordering all the troops along the route to fully protect Laosan who stayed in the Huainan Military Region,
In addition to the regiment, there are currently no more than 600 small troops left, and in addition to ordering the Central Jiangsu and Northern Jiangsu troops to closely monitor the troops in the surrounding Sulu theater...
The central government also directly ordered the new Huainan Military Region to use ammunition to meet the needs of the transferred troops as much as possible. The distribution of bullets must reach an average of 150 rounds per person and four grenades. The ammunition distribution standard for machine guns must reach an average of 150 rounds per person.
Two base numbers. He also asked the four detachments to allocate a regiment with the strongest combat effectiveness to specifically cover Yang Zhen's crossing of the Jinpu Line, and repeatedly requested that he must be escorted to Yancheng in northern Jiangsu.
The central government attaches great importance to Yang Zhen's safety. In addition to wanting to strengthen the troops around Yang Zhen to the size of a division, and even mobilize all the troops in the Jianghuai region, it also issued an order to the Huainan Military Region to immediately let him go.
Orders that bankrupt them.
The order to bankrupt everything is correct. The source of ammunition for the Huainan army is different from that in Wannan, which can occasionally be replenished. All supplies here need to be raised by oneself, including all weapons and ammunition.
You can only find a way on your own. The Fifth War Zone and the Sulu War Zone have long since run out of ammunition.
Ammunition in the Huainan Military Region is not really sufficient, with an average of only twenty rounds of ammunition per person. Not to mention the number of original bullets is even less, and even reloaded ammunition cannot meet the needs. Yang Zhen only replenished it in the Huainan Military Region.
Twenty thousand rounds of ammunition and a thousand grenades. I can't emptied the entire Huainan base area just for these thousand people. One hundred and fifty rounds of ammunition per person, and a force of more than a thousand people will need nearly one million rounds.
In addition to the ammunition reloaded by its own small-scale repair machinery, the total number of original 79 and 65 bullets seized in the entire Huainan base area cannot even add up to this number. If this order from the central government is really followed, the entire
Everyone in the Huainan army must curse themselves to death.
The central government's considerations are good, and the starting point is also good. Although most of the stretch from the west of Jinpu Road to Yancheng in northern Jiangsu is a base area, there are still some areas under the control of the Japanese army and the Sulu Theater. The situation is still quite good.
It’s complicated. In addition, everyone understands the principle of darkness under the light. In many cases, the safer the place, the more likely it is that problems will occur. But for the troops in the eastern Anhui region, it is indeed a bit difficult.
Yang Zhen couldn't laugh or cry about the central government's arrangements. He didn't know whether he should laugh because the central government valued him so much, or whether he should cry because the central government had done something shocking for him. However, he couldn't laugh or cry.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but Yang Zhen still declined the central government's arrangement.
If it weren't for the fact that he had to go to Yancheng to explain some things and it was too late to build a temporary airport in Dingyuan. He didn't want to alarm too many people and would have just flown back to Yan'an from Luxi. Fortunately, the central government was concerned about Yang Zhen's safety.
, but they still attached great importance to Yang Zhen's opinions. Regarding Yang Zhen's firm opposition to the dispatch of troops from the four detachments to escort him, he finally adopted a tacit attitude.
Fortunately, along the way, except for some minor troubles encountered when crossing the Jinpu Railway and a small battle with the Japanese troops who were raiding the area, the entire trip was quite smooth. On January 19, we took a boat in Tianchang.
Crossed Gaoyou Lake. After crossing the lake, Yang Zhen, who was somewhat eager to return home, led his team under the cover of the Central Jiangsu Military Region troops, passed through Gaoyou and Xinghua, and successfully arrived at the new East China Bureau and Jiangsu Province on January 22.
Yancheng is where the Northern Command is located.
