After roughly talking about the development and changes of the war situation, Yang Zhen looked at Du Kaishan's resolute face after accepting the mission. Although he hesitated, he still said: "The headquarters has carefully considered the decision to transfer you to the Western Front to replace Liu Changshun.
.After you get there, you must cooperate well with Chen Hanzhang."
"I'm not worried about your and Lao Chen's abilities. You are not Liu Changshun. You have your own way of commanding. Your combat ideas also have quite a lot in common with Chen Hanzhang. I asked you to replace Liu Changshun because of these reasons.
But there are some things that I have to tell you in advance."
"I don't need to say these words to Chen Hanzhang. His party spirit and principles are much stronger than yours. At least most of the time, he understands what he should and should not do? This was also one of my original candidates for the Western Front.
Among them, the main reason why I hesitated between the two of you for a long time and finally chose Chen Hanzhang."
"Not only because he is the commander of the armored forces, this kind of combat is something that practice makes perfect for him. Also, he is much more mature than you politically. Letting him go will save you a lot of unnecessary trouble. Not to mention Liu Changshun, he
He is from the Kanai army, and he knows what he should do to his old leaders."
"This is one of the main reasons why when I was deciding on the candidate to succeed Chen Hanzhang, I chose him instead of you after much hesitation. At the time, I considered too many political factors and ultimately did not choose you. But now I have not.
Come to think of it, this burden finally falls on you. Taking this opportunity, I want to talk to you more about some things."
"At present, the central government has mobilized almost all the troops in North China except the New Fourth Army and the Shandong troops to participate in the war. The commander-in-chief personally rushed to northwest Shanxi to coordinate the operation, and the deputy commander-in-chief also returned from Shandong and took command in the Taihang Military Region. The entire Guannei troops
, now it can be said that there are many famous generals gathered here.”
"When you get along with your brother troops, please restrain your tail. Don't be so arrogant at every turn. I am the best in the world. When you get along with brother troops, you can't just turn your eyes upward. Don't forget.
, we were not as good as others back then.”
"Do you know that the boss of the Jinsui Military Region, when he was the commander, you and I were still peeing and playing in the mud. When my old commander was shaking the whole Sichuan, you were still wearing
There are crotchless pants. For these old-timers, let alone you, even when I see them, I have to salute them properly and call them "Old Chief."
"Old Du, listen to me. I am indeed your superior now. Privately, we are comrades in life and death, and we share weal and woe. We stir in the same pot and sleep in the same shack. On the battlefield, Yang Zhen can rest assured.
Give your back to your brother."
"Lao Guo, you, and Liu Changshun, I may be a little domineering in official matters, but in private, I have always regarded you as my elder brothers. Don't forget, we all experienced life and death together in the same concentration camp.
Brothers. Now do the math, how many of our group are left? Not even one out of ten."
"If you are arrogant, don't be afraid. We can say whatever we want behind closed doors. But don't show off in front of our brother troops, let alone those old leaders who have far more seniority and experience than us, but in fact their abilities are not below ours."
.People's opportunities are different, and a general's decisive victory is not just on the battlefield."
"In times of war, people like you are priceless. But the war cannot last forever. Who can tolerate your character? Don't make enemies among your own people for your own reasons. As long as there are people in this world,
Any place is not a pure land."
"Wherever there are people, there will be struggles. For your own future and for the future of your family. Today, listen to my younger brother's advice and restrain your temper and personality, at least don't be so arrogant. Regarding political matters, you
Don't get involved, just do your own thing."
"I don't want my subordinates to be like a bunch of glass balls that are so slippery that they can't be caught. I don't even want my subordinates to be the kind of people who are all-rounded and have too many thoughts on other places.
It will affect the improvement of your command ability. But as a senior cadre in the military, there are some things you must understand."
Today was a rare opportunity. Yang Zhen had a lot of heart-to-heart talks with Du Kaishan. There was no other way. In order to prevent Du Kaishan from getting into trouble, he could only give Du Kaishan some vaccinations at this time. This battle on the Western Front was the most important battle between the entire Anti-Japanese Alliance and Guan Nei
The direction in which the troops had the most contact and cooperation, and coupled with Du Kaishan's own shortcomings, he thought it would be better to talk about some things first.
During the Spring Festival this year, the Political Department of the Anti-Japanese Alliance organized a joint celebration meeting between the Anti-Union Forces and the Advance Army. It happened that Du Kaishan was leading three infantry divisions at the Luobei Comprehensive Training Base to conduct comprehensive tactical exercises. Two brigades of the Advance Army
, also conduct training there.
Considering that the number of troops there was the largest at that time, and both armies happened to have troops there, the Political Department chose the Luobei Comprehensive Training Base as the venue for the party. Cadres from the Anti-Union Division and above advanced to the military brigade.
All the above-mentioned cadres participated in the party. The Cultural Troupe of the Political Department of the Anti-Japanese League and the Cultural Troupe of the Political Department of the Marching Army also participated in the performance.
As soon as this guy started, he gave the advancing troops a warning. His troops gave the order and sat on the vests on the ground in uniform as if they were one person. There was no sound during the entire movement.
Noise. Even though the weather was quite cold at that time, the entire army, including him as the commander, remained motionless and sat in a standard posture until they finished watching the performance.
The advancing army over there was slightly worse. When they sat down, they were not as standardized as his troops. After sitting down, due to the cold weather, their sitting postures were not as neat as his troops. There was no way.
Most of the cadres and soldiers of the advancing army are from Guannei, and there are even a lot of southerners. Most of them have experienced such cold weather for the first time.
Sitting outside for such a long time. Not to mention those people in the pass, even the recruits who joined the army in Rehe, cannot adapt to the extremely cold climate in northern Manchuria. This year's Spring Festival is also the coldest time of the year.
Although everyone's winter clothing is the same, there is still a big gap in their ability to adapt to the climate.
However, the climate is one thing. There is no unified regulations and doctrines for the military posture and appearance of the internal troops. In addition, the troops have been dispersed for a long time, and there is no unified standard. According to the differences between the respective units, the military posture and military appearance themselves are different.
They are not the same. There is indeed a certain gap between the Anti-Japanese Alliance and the Anti-Japanese Alliance, which have formal regulations and doctrine requirements.
Later, the regulations and orders of the People's Liberation Army were all formulated uniformly after the founding of the People's Republic of China. But now, this army, which even has colorful military uniforms, has no unified regulations and regulations except for the three major disciplines and the eight points of attention. Even military salutes,
Also because the sources of each army are different, there is no unified standard.
Although after arriving in the Northeast, the advancing army directly applied the regulations and doctrines of the Anti-Japanese Alliance and dispatched troops. However, while they also had to conduct tactical training and other training, the troops really did not have much time to implement it. But this matter became
Du Kaishan laughed at the reason why the troops within the pass were not well trained. He made the political commissar of the advancing army look very bad at that time.
It's just that the old commander was nurturing and didn't care too much about him. Moreover, when this guy led the team to assist in the training of the advancing army, he also did not have much unity with several column commanders and political commissars of the advancing army. In the end, Yang Zhen was helpless.
The only option is to replace him with Tao Jingfei.
Before he was about to go to the Western Front to replace Liu Changshun, Yang Zhen had to talk to him alone to prevent this guy who seriously lacked political sensitivity from causing trouble again. He still has a long way to go, so don't suffer from this.
. During the Anti-Japanese War, I could protect him, but how could I protect him for the rest of my life?
Especially for this battle, the Guan Nei troops can be said to be a gathering of stars. Looking at the list of participating troops produced by the central government, it does not include the advancing troops. There are only three future marshals, four generals, several generals and lieutenant generals.
Ten, and the number of major generals is even greater.
At this time, those who hold positions above the military division level, or even the head of the main regiment, will basically become major generals in a few years. Many at the military division level, even lieutenant generals or generals. If there is no unity with the internal troops,
, will set up too much right and wrong for the future Du Kaishan. The army is not a pure land.
When Yang Zhen said these words, although Du Kaishan had been silent, he obviously listened. After Yang Zhen's words fell, Du Kaishan scratched his head and said: "No. 1, don't worry, I will definitely fight with the Guan Nei troops.
It’s so united. If we really can’t contact the internal troops, I asked Political Commissar Ouyang to come forward.”
Yang Zhen nodded slightly at Du Kaishan's statement, and then said: "In this battle, except for the food that can be replenished for consumption, the rest are all left to the troops inside the customs. Especially the weapons and equipment, every shot and every bullet is
You are not allowed to stay. When it is handed over, you have to come forward in person. Remember the promise you just made and take your tail back to me. A soldier's promise is made with every spit and nail."
Listening to Yang Zhen's words, he knew that No. 1 nodded for Du Kaishan, who was good to him. But although Du Kaishan looked like he was being taught with an open mind, Yang Zhen was not very relieved. Now Du Kaishan is everywhere
Well, this battle is getting better and better as time goes by, but there is still some political naivety. Fortunately, the one who works with him this time is Ouyang Jishan, a veteran political cadre, who can restrain him a little.
The war situation was tense. When the visibility was suitable early the next morning, Yang Zhen took Du Kaishan and boarded the plane. If it weren't for the poor night-flying capabilities of the field airport built by the aviation force in Kurchahanbo, the plane was equipped with the Western Front Future
Commander, last night Yang Zhen kicked Du Kaishan to the battlefield with a white flag.
Every minute of delay at Chen Hanzhang's side would increase the risk. Especially on the Datong line, Mu Changqiu was in urgent need of reinforcements. Judging from the situation when Mu Changqiu detoured back to the Datong line and encountered some troops of the 15th Division, the Japanese army
The pace of reinforcements is not slow. You must know that two days ago, the 15th Division was still on the line between Peking and Tianjin.
Now that the Anti-Japanese Alliance has carried out such heavy air strikes along the Zhengtai Railway, the 15th Division was still able to reach Datong in such a short time. The intensity of the Japanese reinforcements can be said to be quite large. There is not just one 15th Division in Shanxi now.
, in addition to the 69th Division, the First Army also has two infantry divisions.
The 41st Division directly under the North China Front Army is currently in Shanxi. Chen Hanzhang implemented roundabouts in Suinan and penetrated directly into Datong, which can be said to have stung the hornet's nest of the entire North China Japanese Army. Even if the North China Front Army did not mobilize reinforcements, Shanxi's First Army
He will definitely not be willing to give up.
One more day of delay at Chen Hanzhang's place would put the entire isolated northern Shanxi and Suinan battlefields in greater danger. Liu Changshun's hesitation disrupted the entire deployment and combat plan. But at this critical moment, except for Du
There is no one left in Kaishan's hands to replace Yang Zhen, but Du Kaishan, who has high hopes for him, is worried that something unexpected will happen to him on the way.
