Chapter three hundred and seventy-two thriving alone is not spring
After learning about Yang Zhen's move, the chairman could only shake his head and smile bitterly. Intellectuals are important, and the whole army knows it. But for a few intellectuals like Yang Zhen, he shot a political commissar of the brigade who had experienced the Long March.
It is still the only one. However, although Yang Zhen's move seems reckless, it meets the needs of the chairman in some aspects.
Therefore, after the incident, even after returning to Yan'an, the central government also received certain criticism. He was said to have no political acumen, but Yang Zhen was not held accountable for anything afterwards. Although there was a reason for this incident, it also showed from the side that Yang Zhen had no political acumen.
His attention is far higher than that of other cadres.
This was also the reason why ordinary intellectual cadres were so happy when they heard that they were transferred to the Anti-Japanese War. Among other reasons, Yang Zhen attached great importance to intellectual cadres and promoted them quickly, which accounted for a lot of them.
part of the factors.
It’s just that no matter how much Yang Zhen attaches importance to intellectuals, under the actual situation, he has never been able to effectively solve the problem of lack of technical personnel. And this lack of phenomenon does not only appear in the aviation force. It is currently being accepted on a large scale
The armored troops who brought tanks from Jiangbei also encountered considerable problems.
There is always not enough technical personnel, which has become the biggest headache for Chen Hanzhang, the newly transferred commander of the armored forces. As the equipment from Jiangbei gradually arrives, the units of the armored forces begin to be formed and reorganized one after another. Correspondingly, the required technical personnel and
The number of maintenance personnel is growing.
Although some preparations had been made in this regard when the first batch of armored forces were formed. The training of personnel in all aspects has far exceeded the number of equipment required. However, after the arrival of the new equipment, some personnel, especially technical personnel,
However, the number of maintenance personnel is still severely insufficient.
Regardless of whether they are cadres transferred from the central government or cadres selected within the army, they are indeed rich in practical experience and are really willing to work hard to learn. However, their cultural level is far behind, and many things must be done bit by bit.
To study. The cultural foundation is too weak, which undoubtedly prolongs the learning time.
"Talents, no, qualified personnel." After listening to Yu Ming's report, Yang Zhen couldn't help but stroke his temples with a headache. The talent base is too weak and the knowledge structure of the army is too low, which has become an important factor in the future development of the Anti-Japanese Alliance.
Restricting factors have become a serious restriction for a large number of new technical equipment to be put into actual combat as soon as possible.
Now the entire military region is in desperate need of talent, reaching out to him, the commander, for talents. Among them, the aviation force, which has the most technical concentration, has the largest shortage. There is a serious shortage of pilots and ground maintenance personnel. All active personnel are in short supply.
Under the situation of shortage, there is no way to mention the backup personnel. This situation has had a serious impact on whether Yang Zhen's follow-up plan can be implemented smoothly.
In more than three months, the Soviet-German war will break out in full force. In more than half a year, the Pacific War will also break out. According to my plan to launch a comprehensive air strike against Japan after the outbreak of the Pacific War, and to open up the communication with the customs in the second half of the year,
The target of contact. The demand for aviation pilots will be extremely huge.
Although the current domestic air defense strength of the Japanese army can even be described as weak compared to the Germans. There is no radar and the number of anti-aircraft guns is not large, especially the lack of high-performance large-caliber anti-aircraft guns. After the outbreak of the Pacific War, most of its land forces
Naval aviation will also go south to fight, posing little threat to the air raid force in the short term.
But whether it is based on what I know about the battle damage rate of the US military in an air raid on Japan in a few years, or based on estimates of the reaction that the Japanese should have once they encounter an air attack. According to the current personnel reserves, if we want to achieve
The goal of a long-term air strike against Japan is still too far away.
We must know that the Japanese, who have a complete military-industrial system, can quickly increase the number of anti-aircraft guns as long as they are determined. Their army and navy aviation forces can also be transferred back to the country at any time to serve in air defense operations. Coupled with the extremely possible radar technical support of the Germans,
And with the types of bombers we can get in the first two years of the war, this battle loss rate will remain at a fairly high level.
As for the air raid on the Japanese mainland, which is thousands of miles away and surrounded by sea, once the bomber is shot down, it will be impossible for the Anti-Japanese Alliance without the navy to rescue the pilot. And based on the attitude of ordinary Japanese towards war and Japan's
Judging from the strict household registration system itself, it is simply impossible for the Japanese to protect the downed pilots.
Although his next plan is to purchase submarines from the United States for deployment around Japan to specifically rescue pilots who have fallen into the water. Whether this goal can be achieved depends on the attitude of the Americans. And within a short period of time, the Soviets
With it being impossible to participate in the war against Japan, it was difficult to obtain supply and maintenance of submarines stationed at the port, which was also a considerable problem.
This situation also means that once the aircraft participating in the air attack on Japan is shot down, the pilots will basically have no chance of survival. In this way, if the air attack on Japan is to be continued, the requirements for the number of reserve pilots will be considerable.
Big. According to the current training rate of less than 500 people per year, it will take years and months to get it together?
This is why Yang Zhen felt so sad about losing these pilots in this battle. Although he also knew that this was the inevitable price paid by an army as it matured. It was also the ongoing war of national liberation.
A sacrifice that had to be made. But this loss still made him tremble with pain.
Looking at Yang Zhen's expression, Yu Ming, who had just finished his report, was still immersed in the excitement of being received by Yang Zhen. Although he was still immersed in excitement, this guy who was very observant could tell Yang Zhen at a glance.
He was tired. He said cautiously: "No. 1, I have finished my report. You rest first, I will go down first."
Yang Zhen did not let Yu Ming go immediately. After thinking for a while, Yang Zhen said: "Go back and talk to Li Ming, just tell me what I said. You should stop being a squadron leader and go to the Aviation Command as a training staff officer and aviation officer."
School training director. Your future work should focus more on the aviation school."
After that, looking at Yu Ming who was reluctant to leave the front line, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "You are on the front line and can only bring out one squadron, or at most one brigade. Go to the rear and fly
School, you can bring out hundreds of you. Your practical experience is exactly what we urgently need right now."
"Being able to figure out the weaknesses of the enemy's new aircraft in a single air battle and shoot down two of them is not something that ordinary people can do. Putting you in the aviation school, I feel that you can make better use of your experience. We
What is needed is not just an ace pilot, but more air combat masters. And according to the regulations of the military aviation force, you have met the criteria for being transferred back to the rear as a flight instructor."
Hearing Yang Zhen's words, Yu Ming said with some embarrassment: "No. 1, in fact, I have fought against new Japanese fighter jets several times in the sky over Harbin before, and I have some experience. Otherwise, I wouldn't
Maybe we can figure out their weaknesses in one go. After all, a normal air battle only lasts for ten minutes."
"The time of an air battle is too short. It is far from enough time to understand the performance of a new type of aircraft. Only after having fought with it before and having a certain understanding of it, during the air battle I
Only in this way can we understand the basic performance of the enemy aircraft as quickly as possible."
"On the 1st, I will form a complete report on this battle. But I really don't want to go back to the aviation school and work, and I still want to stay on the front line to fight. Can you talk to your superiors and let me stay on the front line? On the 1st, I
I think they need me more here. One of my squadron brothers was abandoned here, and I want to avenge them."
Regarding Yu Ming's explanation and his desire to stay on the front line, Yang Zhen laughed and said: "This is not simple. There are not a few pilots in the entire army who have fought against new aircraft like the Japanese. Why are you the only one who can?"
Find out the weaknesses of this new enemy aircraft? This shows that in addition to your excellent skills, you also have a delicate mind."
"I think it would be more suitable for the current development of our army to let you be the training director of the aviation school. It is also your aviation regulations to transfer pilots who have performed well in air combat to serve as instructors. This is not just to protect you.
These combat heroes are also based on the long-term development of your aviation force."
"I understand your desire for revenge. But spring is not spring when you stand alone. Spring is when there are thousands of purple flowers. The army is a whole that needs close cooperation. It is not possible for one person to defeat the enemy by fighting alone. You, no matter how big you are,
With your ability, how many nails can you drive?”
"Besides, you want to avenge not only the battles of your squadron, but also the countless compatriots across China who died tragically under the iron heel of the Japanese army. As long as you teach your skills to more people, let more comrades-in-arms
, everyone learns your skills, so that we can avenge more people.
"I have just said that what we need is not just one or a few ace pilots, but thousands of combat heroes like you. One person cannot support the sky. Only by cultivating
With hundreds of pilots like you, our aviation force can truly develop and grow. Only then can we finally achieve our goal of completely driving the Japanese invaders out of China."
"After you go back, you must formulate a detailed written report on today's battle, the performance of the enemy's new aircraft, and how to deal with the Japanese new aircraft in an air battle. The more detailed the report, the better. However,
This report must be kept strictly confidential. Especially when facing American instructors, no trace of it is allowed to be revealed."
When Yu Ming heard Yang Zhen's last order, his expression was a little strange. But Yang Zhen didn't say anything, so he didn't dare to ask more questions. He understood that this report must be kept confidential. But why did he also think about the dozens of American flying passengers?
The instructor also kept it a secret, but he didn't understand it until he left. But since No. 1 said it, he had better carry it out.
Yu Ming left, and Li Ming, who was returning from Shen Pai's enemy plane, came over to report to Yang Zhen. After listening to Li Ming's report, Yang Zhen couldn't help laughing and said: "What is there to review? What is there to review? It's so short. Within the time limit, even if they want to rebel, don't they have to be caught by the Japanese army first? I think not only will they not be censored, but these two people will also be awarded meritorious services."
