Five hundred and eighty-third chapter Tianda's task
However, although these cadres who were transferred from the customs had mixed feelings, no one objected to Yang Zhen's opinion. Long before they came to work in the Northeast, the central government had repeatedly explained that after working in the Northeast, regardless of their poor qualifications, How much. However, those who disobey orders, no matter how senior they are, how senior they are, or how high their position is, will be dealt with severely.
With this strict order from the Central Committee, none of these people who were more senior than Yang Zhenshen in the Eighteenth Army or the newly formed Fourth Army dared to disobey this young man who was far below them in both age and seniority. People's orders. Moreover, Yang Zhen's performance was enough for them to understand that he did not get to where he is today. Strength speaks for itself.
In the military, maybe some qualifications are emphasized in peacetime. But in a war situation, no one will really emphasize the depth of qualifications with you. If you have the ability, you have it, if you don't have it, you don't have it. No matter how senior you are, it is the same if you have no ability. Yes. Of course, people with senior qualifications can still gain some superficial respect.
Yang Zhen didn't know the mixed emotions in the minds of these cadres who had been transferred from the customs. After explaining the next phase of the logistics department's work, he directly announced the adjournment of the meeting. But for him, the end of the meeting did not mean the end. Because there were still more to come. An enlarged meeting of the Military Region Standing Committee was waiting for him.
According to Yang Zhen's usual style, there will be no dinner after the meeting, let alone other entertainment. If cadres at all levels who come to the meeting cannot make it back, I'm sorry to have to go to the military area guest house to get a room by myself. Although it is free, the conditions are very strict. Generally speaking, you can eat in the guest house canteen, but you need to issue an approval slip from the Military Logistics Department and the Political Department. If you want to eat more than the standard, then I'm sorry, you have to pay the bill yourself.
If you want to go out to eat, you can, as long as you have money in your pocket. But be careful not to drink too much and be seen by the military district pickets. If you are seen by the military district pickets, I'm sorry, no matter you are a column commander or a brigade commander , political commissar, take him directly to the solitary room of the Military Region Political Department and lock him up for three days.
The second is to be careful about being targeted by the Social Affairs Department and the Political Department of the military region. Because most cadres are short of money, they can never afford to go to high-end hotels. Most cadres in the military region, including Yang Zhen, almost everyone, in January The remaining allowance is simply not enough to eat out for two meals. If you are a lavish spender, don't blame yourself for being targeted.
After Yang Zhen announced the adjournment of the meeting, most of the cadres would rather travel all night to return to their base than to show off in the eyes of what they called tigers. Even if the road was really far away and it was difficult for those cadres to travel overnight, they would all stay in the military area honestly. In the guest house, four to eight people live in a room, and they eat the same food as in the military canteen.
In fact, Yang Zhen did not want to be so strict, but under difficult conditions, he could not risk the morale of the military being corrupted. With the current situation so tense and not yet fundamentally relieved, if the cadres relaxed a little , then the possibility of something going wrong is extremely high.
When Yang Zhen was in the old army of later generations, he often heard the old political commissar mention that discipline is combat effectiveness. Without strict discipline, an army, no matter how good the equipment is, is still in disarray. Moreover, the common people have to see army cadres preaching about resisting Japan and saving the nation every day. Under the circumstances, it is even more outrageous to eat and drink all day long.
Yang Zhen also knew that the army had won great victories in several battles and captured quite a lot. Each brigade of the old army must have its own small treasury. Although it was not much, there would be some savings. At least one night's payment would be paid to these cadres above the brigade. Normal expenses are absolutely no problem.
But some systems must be strictly enforced. Yang Zhen has seen the harm that later generations of troops have done to their combat effectiveness by doing business in order to make up for the lack of military spending. So he repeatedly made strict demands, no matter how difficult you are, what kind of reasons you have, how can you do it? In war, once the bottom line is violated, he will be removed from office on the spot.
With this bottom line, even if there are small treasury in the hands of army cadres, there is a limit. Even if there are individual terrorist elements, it is easy to find out. When Yang Zhen also knows, the problem of corruption is not only the army's business It can be solved without doing business. So he has been planning to adjust the treatment of cadres at all levels in the military region.
Just because the scope involved was too large, the funding revenue could not keep up with the expansion of the army, and the limited funds had to give priority to ensuring military construction, so there has not been much adjustment. However, with the completion of the Northeast Bureau's newly established Northeast People's Bank , have started to open business one after another, and the financial situation has improved somewhat.
With his own financial institution, coupled with the capture of some big cities such as Harbin, a large amount of Manchukuo currency and Japanese yen circulating in the Manchukuo were seized, and after the capture of big cities, tax sources increased. So Yang Zhen also decided to The issue of improving the treatment of military region cadres and soldiers is on the agenda.
However, this matter still needs to be communicated with the Northeast Bureau before it can be implemented. After all, the financial revenue of the Northeast Bureau and the Military Region is still dangling on the line of food and clothing. There are too many places that need money now, and the revenue of the Military Region alone cannot completely solve it. So. , can only be implemented after communicating with the Northeast Bureau. As for now, Yang Zhen really doesn't have time to study this matter carefully.
Under the strict disciplinary requirements, everyone who came to participate in the meeting of cadres at the brigade level or above would honestly either return to the station or rest in the military area guest house after the meeting. If you want to relax, you can only We can wait until we return to our own troops. Under the eyes of these military commanders, these cadres are more honest than children even though they are the top military and political leaders in their own troops.

Yang Zhen, who was holding an enlarged meeting of the military region's military region, naturally had no intention of taking care of it. In this enlarged meeting of the military region's standing committee, not only the commanders of various columns, secondary military regions, various services and arms, and political commissars participated in the meeting, Military and political leaders from the Military Industry Department, Social Affairs Department, and Intelligence Department of the military region all attended the meeting.
Looking at the standing committee members and members present, after Li Yanping announced the requirements and work arrangements for the military region party committee members in the next stage, Yang Zhen threw the speech aside and said directly: "Some words for cadres below the brigade, I can’t say it outright yet. But now that everyone here is a member of the military region party committee, I have something to say straight to the point.”
"At the meeting of cadres at the brigade level and above, I said that in the last quarter of the year in the military region, as long as the Japanese army does not take the initiative to attack by June next year, each of our units has only one mission, which is to train. The military region has only one combat mission for next year, and that is to open up Contact with land within the pass.”
"Under the current situation where it is difficult to replenish troops and all connections with the customs are limited to air transport, the military region and the aviation force are increasingly overwhelmed. For every air transport, the military region has to pay tens of thousands of rubles to the Soviet Union in transit fees. and fuel costs, as well as airport usage fees.”
"Now it seems that if most of our troop replenishment relies on the supply from within the customs, the military region will be completely bankrupt in a few times. Moreover, the only transport aircraft we have are unable to undertake long-term large-scale airlift tasks. Not counting oil. and other funds, just the high-intensity use of transport aircraft in the airlift squadron can easily lead to danger."
"Air transport is not on the ground. If there is any accident, you can stop and rest. In the air, if an accident occurs, it is a plane of people. We must be cautious when it comes to human life. If there are casualties on the battlefield, there is no such thing as Method. After all, we are fighting a war. But some unnecessary casualties, especially those caused by certain human factors, again, the less, the better."
"Now it is extremely urgent for us to open up the communication with the customs in order to obtain the rich manpower supply in the customs. It has even determined our life and death. Everything, including the adjustment and training of the troops' equipment and the replenishment of soldiers, We must all make way for this goal.”
"For us, whether we can break some of the shackles that restrict us depends on our operations in the second half of next year. In order to achieve this goal, each unit must seize the time to train the troops in accordance with the requirements of the headquarters. For me, and For everyone here, this is a task that is bigger than the sky."
Having said this, Yang Zhen looked at the party committee members of each military region present, and strengthened his tone and said to Xiong Dazhen: "I have already explained the tasks of the other departments in the next stage at the meeting of cadres above the brigade. Now in the military region At the party committee meeting, I only made demands of your Ministry of Military Industry."
"Your Ministry of Military Industry must receive various machines and equipment shipped from the United States and put them into production in the shortest possible time. We must speed up the reverse mapping of several Japanese artillery pieces we have selected. For the sixty mm mortar , the production of the 57mm recoilless gun must be accelerated."
"At the same time, we must accelerate the research and development of new weapons and the production of new ammunition in accordance with the unified deployment of the military region. Xiong Dazhen, you need to communicate well with that Major Pearson to ensure that the new rifles will be fully installed in May next year in accordance with the requirements of the military region. .At the same time, your new machine guns must be put into production as soon as possible to ensure that the troops are replaced on time and in quantity next year."
"Before the end of this year, your production capacity of new squad machine guns should reach 2,000 pieces per month. The production capacity of general-purpose machine guns should reach 1,000 pieces per month. Before June next year, you should ensure the reserves of two new types of ammunition. Reaching two to three hundred million rounds. The raw materials and machinery and equipment ordered by the military region from the United States this time are completely enough to produce 30,000 various machine guns by the middle of next year. In other words, before May next year, your Ministry of Military Industry must be able to Scoop out enough weapons to replace the entire army."
"The large number of new machines and equipment imported from the United States this time, plus the large number of military industrial personnel captured after we captured the Japanese arsenal in Harbin. I have prepared the conditions for you now, but if your production capacity cannot increase, it will be It's your own. I don't care whether you stop people or machines, or adopt other methods, but in the middle of next year, I have to look at your production volume."
"I don't care what method you take, by the middle of next year, you must ensure that in accordance with the requirements of the military region, there will be enough equipment for the field troops and the local troops above the regiment level. And not only the quantity, but also the quantity must be guaranteed.
