When Liu Yimin saw this attitude, he laughed. Yes, after the Japanese sweep, the villagers in the base area were very vigilant. When they encountered suspicious people, they would immediately report to the army. In this case, those traitors would not think about being in the base area.
Activities, sabotage.
The Eighth Route Army soldiers who rushed over were from the Training Command. The leading squad leader knew what was going on when he saw Huang Wenhu and Li Xiaoshuai. He looked at the people behind Huang Wenhu and Li Xiaoshuai, and he was about to stand attentively and salute. When he raised his hand, he suddenly
Realizing that the division commander and the political commissar were wearing plainclothes, which was clearly a secret operation, he quickly put down his hand and turned to the hotel owner and said, "You are right. Let's take these people back for interrogation. Messenger, thank you!
”
After the squad leader said that, he asked the soldiers to put away their guns and protect Liu and Luo and left.
The boss was a little puzzled when he saw that the Eighth Route Army did not arrest these people, but walked around them. After thinking about it, he felt that the Eighth Route Army would definitely find out the identities of these people, so he no longer had to worry about it and was busy.
Go to greet the guests.
After Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan arrived at the training headquarters, Yuan Guoping, the political commissar of the training headquarters, and commander Xu Guangda learned that the division commander and political commissar had arrived, and hurriedly came out.
After the group entered the headquarters, Yuan Guoping complained that the political commissar was too risky. What if he encountered a spy? Then he criticized Li Chengyi for not learning the lesson of the assassination in Chengdu. What if something happened?
Li Chengyi hurriedly reported that the guards' battalion and company had already done secret vigilance in advance, and it was foolproof. Please rest assured, the leaders.
Liu Yimin knew that his comrades were all concerned about the safety of him and the political commissar, and he didn't care. He directly asked Yuan Guoping and Xu Guangda to report on his work.
Yuan Guoping said that after the training command crossed the river, the training command directly entered the anti-sweeping operation because the Japanese army began to sweep the war. Before the war, the recruits collected according to the division headquarters mobilization order operated with the baggage regiment during the battle and assumed logistics resources.
Transfer tasks. Especially the materials transferred from Lianyungang were jointly completed by the Logistics Command and the Training Command. Now that the situation is stable, the training has begun to become regular. In another two months, this group of new recruits can complete the training.
.The only drawback is that this group of new recruits was collected from each base area according to the pre-war division mobilization order. They are all veterans of the originally demobilized warlord troops. They are a bit old and have a small number of people, with only 8,210 people, leaving each batch.
The goal of 30,000 people is very different.
Yuan Guoping reported the truth. Since the editorial and training headquarters was ordered to cross the river and advance eastward, the troops have indeed been in an anti-sweeping operation and have no time to recruit new recruits. However, this work must be carried out now.
Liu Yimin and Xu Guangda were not familiar with each other in the past, but they knew very well about the people and things. Is it a famous founding general in history? Therefore, after Yuan Guoping reported, Liu Yimin asked Xu Guang if he was used to his living habits after he reached Shandong, and
Are comrades getting along well?
The fact that Liu Yimin and Xu Guangda are not familiar with him does not mean that Xu Guangda does not understand Liu Yimin. Although he met Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan for the first time since he arrived in Shandong, everyone said about Liu Yimin like a legend. How could Xu Guangda not understand?
Seeing Liu Yimin greetings with gentle words, Xu Guangda hurriedly saluted and reported that everything was fine, living conditions didn't matter, and many difficult days during the Red Army period had come. The current conditions were many times better than that time, so please rest assured.
After that, he said that before coming to Shandong, General He specially commissioned him to ask Liu, Chief Luo. General He also said that the Jinsui area was in short supply and the source of troops was difficult. Please Liu, Chief Luo should not forget the captured Japanese artillery from the 120th Division.
If you can’t use up any machine guns, support the 120th Division more.
When Xu Guangda said this, Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan laughed loudly. Luo Ronghuan laughed and said, "This CEO He can never forget the autumn wind."
Xu Guangda said: "Political Commissar, you don't know. President He told me that the Second Red Army was particularly difficult when it arrived in Shaanxi. There were many staff members, many wounded people, shortage of food and money, and weapons and ammunition were incomparable to the Central Red Army. Fortunately, the Red Army
The Seventh Army strongly supported and gave the farm to the Second Front Army. Commander Liu's army specially supported weapons, ammunition and medicine. After going to the Anti-Japanese War, the instructor in Taiyuan supported the 120th Division to supplement equipment. General Manager He said that there are now several Eighth Route Army soldiers.
The division belongs to the 120th Division to develop slowly. There is no way, the Jinsui area is sparsely populated, the grain output is low, and the development space is small. If you want to strengthen the team, the premise is to solve the food problem, the second is to solve the weapon and ammunition problem, and the third is to
There must be a source of troops. These three things are very difficult to deal with now. According to me, the division commander and political commissar, you criticize me if you say it wrong. The overall strength of the 120th Division is only equivalent to that of our teachers and our tutors, and they are ranked by the ranking.
The firepower of the latter brigade is even worse. Each of our main brigades has an artillery regiment, the 120th Division, the 115th Division, the 129th Division, and the Independent Division has no artillery regiments."
After hearing this, Liu Yimin remained silent and knew that the Japanese army frequently swept the battlefield in Shanxi. In order to cooperate with other battlefields, the main force of the Eighth Route Army took the initiative to attack and fought every day. Mr. He said this, it must be that the 120th Division suffered too many casualties in the battle.
Weapons and ammunition are also damaged.
After thinking for a long time, Liu Yimin told Luo Ronghuan that he must find a way to transport a batch of weapons and ammunition to several divisions, not to mention the 120th Division, most of the rebel troops in the Jidong East still had big swords and sticks. The instructors are now all day long.
Mechanized, the Logistics Command stored a large number of eliminated old national weapons. These weapons were behind the instructors, but for the Hebei Uprising troops and local armed forces and militias, it was undoubtedly a treasure among the treasure. Let the logistics team
The headquarters checked whether the ammunition reserves were enough. If they were not enough, they concentrated their efforts to produce a batch. After the next combat operation was completed, they would send these weapons and ammunition back to central and southern Hebei, and let several main divisions go to central and southern Hebei to capture them.
The Chairman asked to equip several divisions with artillery regiments together, and the artillery cadres brought artillery and shells to Hebei and to southern Hebei.
Yuan Guoping interrupted: "Teacher Commander, I have an idea. The 115th Division, 120th Division, 129th Division, and the Independent Division have high components, while our teaching staff have too low components, which is not conducive to improving the cohesion of the troops. Should I suggest to the Chairman?
, a regiment was drawn from the above-mentioned divisions to Shandong, and mixed with the various security brigades and the Eighth Education Brigades of our division. We drew troops from the Eighth Education Brigades and the various security brigades and sent them to the divisions together with the equipment. I don’t know this suggestion
Is it OK?"
Liu Yimin said: "This suggestion is certainly OK. But there is a problem. The Eighth Brigade is easy to talk about. Most of the soldiers are the national army we brought from the Shanxi battlefield. The soldiers of the Jinsui Army can be transferred anywhere. Several security brigades
The soldiers are all natives from Shandong, and they have a short enlistment time. They have to do a lot of work rashly to other battlefields. Let’s not talk about a regiment. It is recommended that the central government draw a battalion from several divisions, but it must be the old Red Army camp.
It cannot be a newly expanded army. Each security brigade has added a Red Army barracks, and with our cadres, the combat effectiveness should be up to the next level."
Luo Ronghuan was very calm. After listening to the conversation between several people, he thought for a while and said, "In this way, since you want to make suggestions to the Chairman, it's more comprehensive. Shanxi and Shaanxi have a small population, especially Shanxi, where most areas have poor land.
Since ancient times, grain supply has been a big problem. I consider that central Hebei, eastern Hebei and southern Hebei are densely populated, fertile land, and high grain output. Although the Japanese army now has the upper hand, we cannot let them occupy our granary just like this.
It is recommended that the central government send the main force of the 120th Division, the main force of the 129th Division or the main force of the independent division to advance into central Hebei and southern Hebei, cooperate with the left-behind troops to restore and develop the base areas and strengthen the team, and we can also support nearby. In this way, the Japanese army in North China cannot fully implement the Shanxi operation.
Or going south to the Central Plains to participate in the war, it will also connect western Shandong, Hebei-Shandong borders, central Hebei, southern Hebei and even eastern Hebei."
Liu Yimin didn't know how many times Luo Ronghuan's proposal had been calculated, and he wanted to suggest to the central government several times, but considering that the central government had sent the 120th Division to advance into central Hebei in history, and the Japanese army in the North China Plain is now huge, so these troops entered Hebei.
In the middle, southern Hebei fought against the Japanese army, which was not in line with the Chairman's consistent strategic thinking. He wanted to wait until the Japanese army drew troops from North China to reinforce in the late Wuhan Battle. He didn't expect that Luo Ronghuan was also a commander-level figure at the strategic level, and he could see it at a glance.
The Japanese army attacked Wuhan with all their might and thus took a defensive move in North China.
But there is also a problem, that is, it is easy for the Japanese army to concentrate their forces to clear out our army's armed forces on the North China Plain, and even cause significant losses.
Liu Yimin himself does not take the losses caused by fighting the Japanese very seriously. When fighting wars, it is a matter of life and death. The Japanese army is not a fool. It is normal for him to stand there and wait for the beating. There is sacrifice and loss. However, if you do it,
Liu Yimin never did the troops to send them into the Japanese pockets as a target. Even if he wanted to do it, he couldn't do it. Who are the Chairman and the CEO? How could he make a low-level mistake? However, it is indeed a good opportunity now.
The elite Japanese divisions are all in Wuhan, Central Plains battlefield. The rest of the North China Plain are special divisions, security divisions and garrisons. Although they have experienced this period of battlefield training, the combat effectiveness of these third- and fourth-rate troops of the Japanese arena.
There has been some improvement, but Liu Yimin believes that at most they will tie the main force of the Eighth Route Army. If the 120th Division, 129th Division, and Independent Division are not allowed to go to the plain to raise food and cloth, the winter days will be very sad.
The thought was certain, Liu Yimin immediately asked Yuan Guoping to bring pen and paper, but he didn't want them to do it. He directly drafted a telegram to the chairman and the headquarters. In addition to the above suggestions, he also reported that in view of the tight battlefields in Wuhan and the Central Plains battlefields, the situation was critical, and he was determined.
The main force of the instructor was concentrated to go north to Shandong Central, annihilated the enemies on Jiaoji Road and Jiqing Road, and then led his troops south to capture Xuzhou, completely disrupting the rhythm of the Japanese attack.
After writing, Luo Ronghuan read it. The two of them signed it together and then took a photo directly at the editing headquarters.
After sending the telegram, Liu Yimin asked Yuan Guoping and Xu Guangda to accompany him to the training teams in the training headquarters to check the training situation.
This inspection took two days. The reason is that Liu Yimin believes that the composition of this group of new recruits is complicated. Not only is they old, they have served in various warlord troops, and their experience is too complicated. If they want to completely transform them into qualified ones.
The Eighth Route Army soldiers were very difficult. Therefore, he and Luo Ronghuan put a lot of effort into eating and living in various companies for two days, communicating and talking with the soldiers and teaching combat skills.
The cadres at all levels of the training headquarters are all backbones drawn by the teachers and various troops, and have a deep understanding of the political work of the teachers. Under their leadership, this group of new recruits have launched a complaint campaign and their thoughts have changed. Liu Yimin and
As soon as Luo Ronghuan came, he had morning exercises with everyone in the morning and afternoon, and guided training in the morning and afternoon. During the meal, Liu, Luo, Yuan and Xu stood in front of the pot to make food for everyone, and helped the soldiers carry bubbles at night and tied them with the soldiers.
After two days, the new soldiers thoroughly learned what the old Red Army tradition is, what the unity of officers and soldiers is, and what the new people's army is.
When leaving the training headquarters, Liu Yimin ordered Yuan Guoping and Xu Guangda to immediately distribute weapons to the soldiers and speed up the completion of training subjects. Next time, all personnel from the training headquarters will be brought to the battlefield to fight instead of training. After the battle,
After returning to continue training, we must truly train these new recruits with rich combat experience into elites of the Eighth Route Army, and in the future they can serve as combat backbone when they are incorporated into various units. The next batch of training will be concentrated on the Qinghe Guard Brigade and Jiaodong Guard Brigade, with three months of training time
One day, we must improve the combat effectiveness of the two security brigades, and serve as the mainstay of the eastern Shandong region, so that the 7th brigade can free up his hands to participate in the main large-scale operations. Next, we must let the 8th brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the brigade of the briga
The Second Western Garrison Brigade, Tai'an Detachment, and the Southeast Shandong Detachment were sent back for training. The standard was to teach the first brigade's training standards, and no rotation training was allowed if it did not meet the requirements.
The war was about to begin, and it was not easy to come. After Liu Yimin and Luo Ronghuan left the training headquarters, they went directly to the Southeast Shandong Administrative Office and met with the party, government and military leaders in the southeastern Shandong.
During the war, Liu and Luo stayed in Ju County for two days. Guo Zihua and Wang Nanhu didn't know about No. 1, and the leader No. 2 was by their side. Therefore, as soon as they met, Wang Nanhu complained about the division commander and the political commissar looked down on Xin.
The troops, no matter what, the backbone of the Southeast Shandong Detachment is all old troops and a battalion of the Guard Regiment. Can't the Southeast Shandong Detachment be the guard force of the division commander and political commissar?
Guo Zihua was old and saw Wang Nanhu and the division commander complaining. He knew that this was the intimacy that only his closest old comrades could have. He did not bother them and looked at them quietly.
Liu Yimin was in a hurry, so after meeting with the cadres, he let everyone go, leaving Guo Zihua and Wang Nanhu behind, and began to listen to reports and assign tasks.
Wang Nanhu reported that some time ago, Shandong Southeast Detachment cooperated with the Fifth Brigade of Education and Tai'an Detachment carried out anti-sweeping operations, which was very hard to fight. The enemy's troops were too large and there were many planes, and they were all rolling forward in groups, so there was no chance to fight an annihilation war.
, only small troops can attack and block, and use the mountainous terrain to fight the enemy. The troops suffered heavy casualties and also suffered great ammunition losses. Fortunately, Wang Laohu and his friends got a lot of ammunition from Jinan, all of which were supplemented with the Fifth Brigade of the Education, Tai'an Detachment and
The southeastern Shandong detachment is now better, and the troops have collected a lot of new soldiers. The entire detachment has four infantry regiments, one air defense battalion, one artillery battalion, one engineering battalion, and one logistics battalion are basically full. The county brigades of several counties
The district squads and militia organizations also gathered up and set up coastal defense posts to monitor the movements of the Japanese navy. The air defense posts were set up in accordance with the requirements of the air defense brigade, and a relatively complete security system was basically formed.
Guo Zihua reported on the economic development of southeastern Shandong. In agriculture, the two-cooked farming method is implemented in a year. The autumn grain will soon enter the harvest season. It is estimated that it should be a bumper harvest year. If there is such a stable environment next year, southeastern Shandong will be
On this year's basis, at least 50% of military rations can be provided. The commercial situation is even more gratifying. Each county in Rizhao, Ju County, Zhucheng and Yishui has more than 500 merchants. Especially Ju County, due to its core base, the situation is
More stable, merchants removed from Tianjin, Qingdao and Weixian have now started to open stores, and the number of merchants has now exceeded 1,000 households, and it is possible to continue to rise. In terms of industry, the logistics headquarters is in charge, but some private workshops are
And small factories are also actively trying to find ways to start construction and production.
After listening to the reports of Wang Nanhu and Guo Zihua, Liu Yimin asked that the work in Southeast Shandong should be strengthened. The military should be expanded on a large scale. The main force of the Southeast Shandong detachment should be fully organized and trained according to the standards of the main brigade, and the brigades of each county should develop into independent regiments.
Or the security regiments also need to build a small maritime patrol team, and in the future, they will seize the Japanese torpedo boats and carry out maritime guerrilla warfare. If necessary, they can attack Japanese warships and drive the Japanese warships out of the offshore, so that they cannot conduct landing operations at will. Economically,
Focusing on the construction of the fiscal and taxation system, focusing on basic industries, like salt industry, can be launched in the civilized way to ensure that residents of the base area eat salt. In agriculture, we will continue to implement the two-cooked work method a year, and we must mobilize the masses to raise livestock, and every household must raise them.
Cattle, pigs, chickens, and mountain people should raise more sheep, horses, donkeys, and mules, which not only increase income, improve the supply of troops, but also use farm fertilizer to increase grain output. In the future, the retired war horses of the troops can be handed over to the masses for free and make up for the
The problem of insufficient accumulation of agricultural production. Horses, mules, and donkeys raised by the masses should be given priority to supply the troops to solve the problem of insufficient pack horses in the army. We must also hurry up in the fishery and mobilize fishermen to go out to sea to catch more fish, except for fresh goods, the rest
Everyone should be pickled into dried fish and stored. This winter, we should use the night time to organize the people to build water conservancy, clear rivers and canals. We should also dig more deep pools in some rivers to replace reservoirs to store water. Every household
We need to draw a water cellar to store water and prepare for shortage. In case of a severe drought next year, we have a solution, that is, to store water in a variety of drought-resistant crops and water cellars to ensure that agriculture does not reduce or reduce production.
The reason why Liu Yimin said this is because he knew that from 1939 to 1944 in history, Shandong had been drought continuously. The reason why Wu Huawen’s Ministry was a traitor was that in addition to Chiang Kai-shek’s policy of saving the country and the Japanese army’s sweeping force, the most important thing was that there was no food.
, people starve to death every day. Liu Yimin is familiar with history, so he naturally doesn't want the military and civilians in his base to starve again.
Speaking of this, Liu Yimin asked Luo Ronghuan to immediately convey his order to Li Yu, Guo Hongtao and Wu Zheng after he returned, to take out funds and to organize merchants to buy grain in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, three cavalry battalions and northern Suzhou that were operating in central Jiangsu.
The detachment should find a way to seize more Japanese food and transport it back to Shandong for reserves when the main force launches the southern front war.
Guo Zihua thinks that Liu Yimin is becoming more and more interesting, and it tastes like a charlatan. How did he know that there will be a drought next year? But no matter how much he thinks, Guo Zihua doesn't want to interrupt Liu Yimin, who is talking, because he knows Liu Yimin
The predictions are extremely accurate, and they are even more famous than Yang Zhicheng, the new political commissar of the logistics headquarters known as the fortune teller.
Finally, Liu Yimin asked all organs in southeast Shandong to mobilize quickly and organize villagers to do a good job in supporting the situation. Especially during the winter military uniforms and military shoes, we must do it now. The Logistics Command provides fabrics, cotton, and every household of the fellow villagers.
When picking and sewing materials, you must solve the problem of winter clothing for the troops before winter begins.
After Liu Yimin finished speaking, Wang Nanhu expressed his hope that the Southeast Shandong Detachment would participate in the main combat. It is easy to expand the army now, and there is no problem with weapons. During the last battle to sweep southeast Shandong, a large part of the weapons seized by the Fifth Brigade of the Education Fifth Brigade was given to the Southeast Shandong.
Detachment, but ammunition supply is a problem. All units of the Southeast Shandong detachment are old troops and have strong combat effectiveness, but the cadres and soldiers are very arrogant and are unwilling to apply for ammunition supply from the Logistics Command, saying that we can fight some such as escalating animals.
Battles like Lianyungang solve the problem of ammunition supply. Please consider this. In addition, the cadres said that the number of the detachment is a bit inappropriate. The combat effectiveness, equipment and record of the Shandong Detachment and the Tai'an Detachment are there. Is it okay to put it there?
Consider changing the name of the 9th brigade and the 10th brigade, which will easily inspire morale.
When Liu Yimin heard this, he criticized Wang Nanhu for not letting go of the main airs. What is the main force? Not only is it invincible in fighting, it is invincible, it can guard the base area and be able to organize the masses to develop production. The main force of the division must fight south and north.
The southeastern Shandong region is currently the most stable base in Shandong. Optimizing the base is optimizing the home, so how can there be so much talkative!
Luo Ronghuan saw that Liu Yimin had trained Wang Nanhu to dust, and said, "Comrade Nanhu, the division commander's meaning is not Tai'an Detachment. The Southeast Shandong Detachment cannot be changed to the name of the 9th Brigade and the 10th Brigade, but no matter what the number is, the Eighth Route Army, it is all
Fighting the Japanese. At this stage, our army needs hidden strength and must focus on development. If we build so many main brigades, wouldn’t it be that the Japanese and Chairman Jiang’s eyes are all focused on us? Not only do you want to change the number, but which of the security brigades are
Don't want to change? Comrade, this matter needs no further, it will be changed when the time is ripe. I know you want to join the main force in the war, but what if the Japanese attack on our base? Now there is the main force here, and the Japanese will come to you.
We are not afraid of both divisions. What if the main force goes north and south? If the main force goes north and starts a major battle, the task of guarding and blocking towards Longhai Road will inevitably fall on you. In this way, you first go to the Logistics Command.
Apply for ammunition replenishment, and you will hand over it after you seize it in the future.”
Wang Nanhu hurriedly stood attentively and saluted, saying, "Thank you, the political commissar for criticism."
