Yang Zhen, who was dining with the central delegation, naturally had no idea that the central government would have so many ideas before the delegation arrived. If he knew that the central government would do such a thing in order to maintain his independence and not be controlled by the north.
Decision, I don’t know whether to cry or laugh because of the central government’s attention?
The dinner prepared by Yang Zhen was very sumptuous, and it was obvious that a lot of effort had been put into it. [.Com text] In addition to the fish from the river and the game caught on the way here, there was also a special treat for the man who had a special taste for soybeans.
Mr. Lin, who was partial to it, prepared a plate of fried soybeans. However, the origin of this plate of soybeans was not very good. Yang Zhen specially took them from the horse feed prepared for the horses.
Although the Northeast is China's main soybean producing area and the largest producing area, the abundant soybeans are regarded as strategic materials by the Japs and are strictly controlled. Especially in the counties in the north that do not produce beans, the number of soybeans seized
It's really not much. And these few soybeans are also used as ingredients to increase nutrition for the war horses.
War horses are not those bad horses that drive shafts, plow fields, and pull mills. They are very delicate, and they eat very particular things. In addition to the necessary forage, they also need to add a lot of necessary feed. Among these feeds, soybean-based
The finished bean cake is the best. And it is not enough to just roll up the forage. There are many opinions on the storage and arrangement of the forage, and even its storage.
If you really only feed grass, I'm afraid your horse won't even be able to stand up in a few days. If you really feed a handful of grass on the roadside like those rumored in later generations, it probably won't take long.
, your horse will die of diarrhea.
Even though Mongolian horses are famous for their ability to withstand roughage and are hard-working, it is because of the endless high-quality wild soybeans, alfalfa and other top-quality forage grasses on the Mongolian grasslands. If the Mongolian grasslands are full of some forage that horses don’t like to eat,
Grass, I'm afraid there is no such horse breed as the Mongolian horse.
When the army didn't have a single horse, Yang Zhen didn't understand these things at all. When there were relatively sufficient war horses, Yang Zhen discovered that raising these war horses and keeping them strong was not an easy task. Even
The so-called Mongolian horses that are resistant to roughage are completely different from what I heard about in later generations.
In order to maintain the physical strength of the war horses when it was difficult to replenish them, after occupying several county towns, Yang Zhen personally instructed Zhang Zhenhua to centralize and store all the captured soybeans. The bean cakes produced in private soybean oil workshops were also managed by the Logistics Department.
Unified acquisition.
In order to welcome this soybean-loving Mr. Lin, Yang Zhen went to Zhang Zhenhua to buy thirty kilograms of soybeans before leaving. So these soybeans can definitely be said to be snatching food from the horse's mouth. Of course, Yang Zhen wouldn't kill him for these words.
Dare to say it. If the central government found out that he actually got soybeans from the horse feed to feed this famous general, I'm afraid he would be criticized a lot.
Compared with Mr. Lin who was delighted to see the beans, several other generals were more interested in the fish from Heilongjiang cooked with authentic Northeastern techniques. Especially those fish that were not produced in the south aroused their great interest.
interest.
Stewed grass carp with tofu, braised braised bream flowers, fried bream flowers, crispy yarrow, stewed catfish with potatoes, stir-fried roe deer meat with green onion, braised venison, topped with crucian carp stewed in Heilongjiang water and jeluo fish meat fillings
The dumplings made several generals feel like vomiting after eating black bread, red sausage, seaweed soup and other tasteless Russian dishes for a whole year or even several years. They ate heartily.
Mr. Lin, who was never picky about food and would eat whatever was given to him, also ate a lot of fish. He even ate as much of the fish-filled dumplings that Yang Zhen gave him. He even had rice served for him.
I didn't even eat a bite of the rice. While I was eating, I kept praising how delicious it was.
After the meal, Yang Zhen arranged for the comrades of the delegation to rest, but he did not expect that he would be left in the single tent specially prepared for him by Mr. Lin.
Sitting on the camp bed, Mr. Lin looked at Yang Zhen under the bright lantern for a long time before saying: "Can you tell me about your combat experience? I am very interested in those battles of yours. Can you tell me what happened at that time?"
Considered? Under what kind of circumstances were your decisions made?"
Looking at the time on his watch, Yang Zhen said hesitantly: "Chief, it's already late at night. Would you like to rest first? After you have rested, I will report to you in detail? I'm used to staying up late.
You are still injured and need to be recuperated."
Mr. Lin shook his head and said: "You and I are both soldiers, and staying up all night is nothing to us. I'd better listen to your introduction first. As for rest, we'll talk about it after listening." Although he was not nervous when he spoke.
Not slowly, but in a firm tone.
Seeing his persistence, Yang Zhen had no choice but to start from how he was captured and imprisoned in the Japanese army's germ warfare combat base, to how he made the determination to break out. From the Ashe River blockade to the purpose of supplementing
supplies to attack the pioneering regiment. From how Wudaolingzi used explosives to annihilate thousands of Japanese and puppet troops to the attack on Weihe County.
From the ambush at the junction of Acheng and Wuchang to the rest and recuperation of Lao Heidingzi's secret camp. From the sneak attack on the construction site of Jingbo Lake Puppet Manchukuo Hydropower Station to the surprise attack on Jiamusi. From the bloody battle at Qunce Mountain to annihilate the Japanese 44th Reinforcement Regiment to Shitou
A bloody battle in Miaozi defeated the main force of the Japanese 104th Division.
Yang Zhen talked about every battle in great detail. He explained how he thought, how he made the determination to fight, including the deployment of troops. He even talked about some of his habits when commanding battles.
It's not that he consciously showed off, but he really hopes to get guidance from this illustrious marshal. He thinks that his ability in mobile warfare is still very lacking, especially because he has very little experience in commanding large corps. He is looking forward to it.
I can get help from this military master.
Mr. Lin just listened quietly when Yang Zhen was narrating, without interrupting or commenting. He just nodded while listening. When Yang Zhen finished speaking, he looked at Yang Zhen in disbelief for a long time, and then
He sighed: "You are so young, but you are so decisive. Many of your determinations would not have been made by me."
"The first battle our army fought against the Japanese army was under my command. I was very clear about the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army. In the battle of Pingxingguan, the 115th Division had sufficient ammunition and the participating troops were all old bones from the Long March.
What was ambushed was only the Japanese army's baggage troops, and thousands of people were injured or killed, almost outnumbering the Japanese army at a ratio of one to one. It is not easy for you to face the main force of the Japanese army and fight like this."
"The Japanese officers and soldiers are well-trained, and their combined combat capabilities are extremely strong, far beyond what we can compare with. Even the most well-trained Central Army of the Kuomintang is far behind it. Many of the battles you fought were head-on.
It’s a tough battle. If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to make this determination easily.”
"Of course, there is a reason why your equipment is better than our army in the pass. But you can fight like this with a group of rabble, expand the army to tens of thousands in a short period of time, and continue to fight
We have won so many battles, and one of them cannot be explained by luck. It is difficult to achieve without a lot of hard work."
"First of all, as a commander, you always have a clear mind, and your judgment of the battlefield situation is very accurate. You have developed targeted training based on the advantages and disadvantages of Japanese tactics. Although it seems a bit hasty because the time is relatively short.
But it was your targeted training that enabled your troops to compete with Japanese regular division soldiers in a short period of time without falling behind."
"You are right. The outcome of a battle or a battle depends not only on the comparison of the enemy's and our own forces, as well as the disparity in weapons and equipment. It also requires the commander's calm mind and judgment of the battlefield situation.
and reasonable tactical arrangements.”
Speaking of this, Mr. Lin smiled and said: "But your fighting style is very strange. Sometimes you are lavish and your fighting is hearty, which makes you look very grand. Sometimes, you are a little timid and you look a little petty.
From this point of view, it can be said that you have not yet formed your own command style."
"In the battle of Qunce Mountain, you rushed to surprise Jiamusi, used deep penetration to strike at the enemy's heart, mobilized the Japanese army to come back for reinforcements, dispersed their concentrated forces, and created opportunities for you to finally encircle and annihilate the Japanese army. This is quite exciting, and you can even use
This brilliant description is enough to serve as a typical example of mobile warfare."
"When we were ambushed at the junction of Wuchang and Acheng, we were able to make a correct judgment in such a short period of time, and concentrated our forces and firepower before the main force of the Japanese army encircled them.
Not only did he wipe out one enemy unit at a very small cost, but he also successfully broke out of the Japanese encirclement. This is very difficult to achieve without keen battlefield judgment."
"But before the battle in Shitou Miaozi, you argued with your subordinates several times, which delayed a main force for nearly a night. As commanders who are personally on the front line, your subordinates have their own judgment. Chapter 1
Disobedience can feel strange once, but the second time you should wonder why they insist on their opinions."
"Maybe you think that because your subordinates were promoted too quickly, they still lack command experience, especially in their judgment of the battlefield situation. But since you can select them as military leaders from the hundreds of people who broke out at the beginning, I
I don’t think you just want to maintain the balance within the army. They must all be capable and have certain talents.”
"Although the subsequent development of the war situation proved that your judgment was not wrong, you have not personally seen the terrain of the Xingshan Fortress built by the Japanese army. Your understanding of the situation there is definitely no better than that of the commanders on the front line."
"They are commanding on the front line and have a better understanding of the situation on the front line than you who are far away in Qunce Mountain. Although the subsequent battle situation was passive for a time, the facts proved that the determination of the front line commanders was not wrong. And if you are
When they disobey for the second time, if we analyze it carefully, we won't waste most of the night in vain."
"So, there are many times when, as a senior commander, you not only have to trust your own judgment, but you also have to trust your subordinates. Find out the most beneficial situation for your side from the intelligence reported by your subordinates.
, and determined that this is the most important quality that a senior commander should possess. As a commander who coordinates the entire army, it is not a good thing to have to do everything personally."
"The way you look at the situation, you can't just focus on tactics, but you can't just focus on strategy. You have to combine tactics with strategy. This is what a mature senior commander should do. You can't overdo it.
, and we can’t completely let go.”
"You told me that you are crossing the river by feeling for stones now. But I hope that the time you feel for stones is as short as possible. Especially in the situation where it is relatively difficult to replenish your soldiers and supplies, you should try to have as few fights with the Japanese army as possible.
In positional warfare, we should fight more mobile warfare and organically combine mobile warfare with guerrilla warfare. You can neither destroy the enemy without paying attention to preserving yourself. Nor can you just save yourself without destroying the enemy. The degree of this is that you, as a commander,
You must grasp it well.”
After all, he is a marshal. He sees the problem very accurately and hits the nail on the head. Not only does he point out Yang Zhen's advantages in detail, but he is also very accurate about his immaturity in battle command. Of course, if it were criticized by another person,
The method may be more tactful, but if Mr. Lin can do it like that, it will not be his style.
In response to Mr. Lin's evaluation of himself and his pointing out of the advantages and disadvantages of strategic literacy, Yang Zhen, while brushing up on his records, kept asking the man who created three groups of questions about strategy, especially tactics.
Ask military strategists about the advantages and disadvantages of both the enemy and ourselves, such as the army and the three fierce tactics.
As for Yang Zhen's advice, Mr. Lin, who obviously had a good impression of him, also gave all his advice. Almost all the questions were answered. Especially when Yang Zhen asked for advice on whether it was appropriate for a commander to leapfrog his level, he was even more enthusiastic.
It was because Yang Zhen analyzed all the advantages and disadvantages in detail. He clearly told Yang Zhen what situations can be done and what situations cannot be done.
Not only did he give Yang Zhen a lot of advice on the military, but he also explained many things in detail about political affairs that Yang Zhen had not asked for advice. Neither of the two people expected that their conversation would last most of the night. etc.
By the time the conversation ended, it was already dark and the cook outside had prepared breakfast.
After Yang Zhen left Mr. Lin's tent, he recalled the enlightening conversation he had during the night and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "No matter whether future generations have myths about this man or not, he has always been respected by leaders, from the commander of the First Red Army to the First Army.
It is absolutely no accident that he became the commander of the 15th Division and later the commander of a million-strong army."
"Perhaps he has some shortcomings in his character that will be fatal to him in the future, but this will not hinder his military achievements. No one can deny the role he played in the growth of the people's army in later generations.
. Putting aside political factors, in terms of this military quality, perhaps only the one-eyed marshal can compare."
