Hu Weidong had already anticipated Zhang Hao's promotion. After all, given his contribution and qualifications, it was reasonable for him to become a member of the Politburo Standing Committee. However, the central government actually decided to upgrade the Eighth Red Army to the Third Red Front Army and appointed Hu Weidong as the commander-in-chief.
He was also added as an alternate member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, which surprised him. Although the current strength of the Eighth Red Army is not inferior to any front army, Hu Weidong's qualifications are too young after all. You must know that even those who had just arrived
The internationalists who had reached high positions in the Soviet area were at least old party members, and Hu Weidong had only joined the party for less than a year and a half...
Hu Weidong wanted to refuse, but Zhang Hao specifically talked to him and asked him to take over this important task, because only by gaining greater power can he work better for the party and the people, and after Hu Weidong became the commander-in-chief of the front army, he and he
Relevant issues all need to be decided by the Central Plains Bureau or the Central Committee. Even if the international faction intends to cause trouble, there will be nothing they can do unless those guys can take over the Central Committee again or win the support of most of the middle and senior cadres of the Third Front Army.
Obviously it is impossible. And if they are just a regiment commander, as long as they find an opportunity to take action, they can kill first and then show off. In addition, the Central Plains Soviet Area has strong strength and is located in the place of the Fourth War, so it is not possible to gain arbitrary power.
Conducive to dealing with threats from external hostile forces and various unexpected changes...
At least getting promoted is not a bad thing. Since Zhang Hao said so, Hu Weidong did not refuse. To be honest, he was actually a little proud in his heart. It only took him less than 20 months to transform from a white body to a man of his own.
General, even in YY novels, his achievements are quite good. Although Hu Weidong still has lingering fears every time he thinks about the difficulties and dangers involved. If he was given a better foundation, maybe he would not have such courage.
Then the current miracle would not be possible.
What Hu Weidong cares more about than getting promoted is that the 28th Red Army and the Dabie Mountain Base are now finally under direct control. It’s not that he doesn’t trust Gao Jingting, but it’s just that after decentralizing autonomy for a long time, hilltopism and other unavoidable things will inevitably occur.
question. In addition, considering the large number of casualties suffered by the 15th Red Army during its operations in North China and the further development of the 28th Red Army during this period, the establishment of the Third Red Front Army will also need to be adjusted...
...
Soon, Zhang Hao, as Secretary of the Central Plains Bureau, announced the reorganization of the Third Red Army. The Fifteenth Red Army inherited the original designation of the Eighth Red Army, and under its jurisdiction were the Red 38th Army, which was reorganized with the independent division as the main body, and the Red 38th Army, with the advancing division as the main body.
The Red 40th Army was reorganized as the main body; the Red 28th Army was upgraded to the Red 28th Army. It consists of the Red 42nd Army, which was mainly reorganized from the Red 82nd Division, and the Red 42nd Army, which was formed by the merger of the Mountain Division and the Red 74th Division.
45th Army; and the teaching division emphasizes the word "teaching". The number of infantry has been greatly reduced, and the total strength has dropped sharply from about 30,000 to more than 10,000. It is directly under the jurisdiction of the headquarters of the Third Red Front Army. Similar units
There are also many "special forces" units such as armored brigades, heavy artillery brigades, and air defense regiments...
During the battle in North China, Hu Weidong realized that when fighting against the Japanese who had air force superiority, having too many troops was not only not an advantage, but was also detrimental to rapid deployment, and was not conducive to avoiding Japanese aerial reconnaissance while simultaneously attacking Japanese aircraft and artillery.
It is also a perfect target, and the current primary task of the Central Plains Soviet Area is to mobilize, organize the masses and suppress counterattacks and suppress bandits. Therefore, in a sense, local troops and militia are even more important than field troops. For this reason, Hu Weidong proposed to reduce production and completely demobilize
On the one hand, the number of field troops will be reduced to reduce the burden on the people in the base area, and on the other hand, the laid off personnel will be allocated to local areas to strengthen the strength of the garrison and the construction of militia organizations. This plan received strong support from Zhang Hao, and the great man also
He greatly praised it because it was in line with his own ideas of "people's war"...
Hu Weidong estimated that after the reorganization is completed, the strength of the four armies of the Third Red Front Army will be between 25,000 and 28,000. Including the instructor divisions and other units directly under the front army, the total strength of the field troops will be approximately more than 120,000. At the same time, the Central Plains
However, the number of local troops in the Soviet area can soar to more than 150,000, the number of semi-full-time militiamen exceeds 200,000, and the number of ordinary militiamen who only use their free time for military training can exceed 2 million (but
The complete militia system will take another 1-2 years to complete). Although the combat effectiveness of local troops and militia cannot be compared with that of the elite Red Army field troops, they have provided them with a steady stream of supplementary soldiers and cultivated a large number of soldiers.
Military talents, and after the Japanese invaders fully invaded, they became the main force in the national resistance war against Japan. Of course, these are all things for a later time...
Hu Weidong has been away from the base for almost half a year since he went north to Shanxi. During this period, there was an endless stream of talents from all sides, especially after the 15th Red Army advanced into North China to annihilate the Japanese invaders and became a heroic force in the eyes of the Chinese at home and abroad.
, the Central Plains Soviet Area could attract more talents. In addition to those university teachers and students who were originally in North China and directly joined the army, as well as important talents specially invited by Hu Weidong personally, there were also many people who ignored the difficulties and obstacles on the road.
, came all the way to Luoyang, and many of them even returned from overseas, such as Guo Dongcai, a graduate student at the Internal Combustion Engine Research Laboratory of Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan, Zhang Huaqing, a metallurgical doctor studying in the UK, and Cheng Mingsheng, a graduate of the Electrical Engineering Department of Waseda University, Japan.
Lu Da from the Department of Steel at the Technical University of Berlin, Germany, and others. What surprised Hu Weidong the most was that he was still studying at the Institute of Chemistry at the University of Wizburg in Germany. After hearing about the anti-Japanese reputation of the 15th Red Army and the antibacterial effects of penicillin, he still
Huang Minglong, the father of medicinal chemistry in New China, interrupted his study tour and resolutely returned to China...
Huang Minglong's most famous scientific achievement in history is the accidental discovery and summary of the "Huang Minglong Reduction Method", but for the New China, his contribution to applied chemistry, especially medicinal chemistry, is much more important. Among them, the New China Steroids
The localization of hormone drugs was almost solved by Huang Minglong single-handedly. If not, dexamethasone, cortisone and other corticosteroids that are so cheap that pharmaceutical companies are unwilling to produce them would have to be imported at high prices for a long time.
What Hu Weidong values most is Huang Minglong’s talent and ability in pharmaceutical chemical synthesis... (This site...your support is my biggest motivation.)
