In the Red Army of Northern Shaanxi that year, the Jin-made 38-type rifle was the best weapon, and the Hanyang-made rifle was even a good gun. Most of the troops are old sleeves, and miscellaneous weapons such as fast guns and nine sons Mauser left over from the last years of the Qing Dynasty. Some guns don't even have bullets, so they can only carry them on their backs to scare people.

The Red Army did not have its own formal arsenals, and those improvised arsenals were just reloading bullets and making some inferior ones*. The main weapons and ammunition are still mainly based on seizures. Whatever weapons the surrounding enemy had, the Red Army naturally used. Not to mention the indigenous warlords in northern Shaanxi, even the 17th Route Army is also poor, and the weapons are not good.

The surrounding opponents were poorly armed and equipped, and the Red Army in northern Shaanxi was naturally not as good as the equipment. Everyone was envious of good equipment, and the well-equipped Red 25th Army was the object of envy of the Red Army in northern Shaanxi at that time. Zhang Zijian, who was a guerrilla leader back then, could not fire half of the dozens of guns under his command, did not have a single machine gun, and had an average of less than three bullets.

For the equipment of the fraternal troops, in addition to envy, there may be some jealousy, so I said a few strange words. He was accustomed to guerrilla habits and operated independently in the field. There are brothers who were born and died together, and there is nothing to taboo, so naturally there is something to say.

But the problem was that it was not during his solitary activities, but during his participation in military meetings. When he said this, he didn't care about it, but he ended up getting himself into a lot of trouble. What he said was not taken seriously, but those who could hear it were taken seriously.

The day after saying this, this old man was directly arrested by the Security Bureau, and sentenced to death on a reorganizationist charge that he did not know what he meant. Originally, they were all taken to the execution ground, but if it weren't for the fact that the central government, who had just arrived at that time, kept a large number of cadres of the Red Army in northern Shaanxi, this old man's head would have been gone.

At that time, the Red Army was short of bullets, and naturally guns would not be used for execution. Those sentenced to death are all executed with a big blade. If the head is cut off, there is really no chance. Of course, he was not the only one arrested at that time, but a large number of cadres from northern Shaanxi. His commander-in-chief was also arrested, and he almost lost his head.

Since then, he may have been bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope. In many things, very little express their attitude. The old style of swaggering is gone, and it has been replaced by prudence. His current situation and his approach on many issues have also given many people his very smooth views.

Although the responsibility for the suppression of rebellion at that time was not the Red 25th Army, it was mainly composed of local cadres in northern Shaanxi. But after all, it was the arrival of the Red 25th Army, which had a hard gun, that gave the local leaders some confidence. The differences that had not yet been made public were directly raised to the point of rebellion.

At the same time, it was mainly people from the Red 25th Army who arrested people, so that the relationship between the two sides was very cold for a long time. In the end, when the Eighth Route Army was organized, the Red 25th Army and the Northern Shaanxi Red Army could only be organized separately, and the Northern Shaanxi Red Army was incorporated into the other two divisions.

But although he Zhang Zijian gives people a sleek feeling, whether he is the kind of person who has no ideas, he himself is clear, and Li Ziyuan is also clear. Li Ziyuan knew that Zhang Zijian was at the meeting and did not express his thoughts. And the previous answer was just following his own train of thought.

Although two suggestions were made, it was just a formality and this guy still had goods in his stomach, which Li Ziyuan had no doubt. Li Ziyuan has always paid attention to military deployment, and he must give full play to the ability of his subordinates and deputies.

In his own private words, if you don't squeeze them, it's worth the things you bear for them. If his subordinates are really capable, Li Ziyuan will have no scruples when he comes back, and give them a stage and sky to give full play to their abilities. In Li Ziyuan's opinion, if he did all the work by himself, he would only be tired and half dead.

Indeed, as a military commander, Li Ziyuan did not object to his subordinates taking some risks under certain circumstances. But when Li Ziyuan does this, he usually has to be ready to carry the black pot for his subordinates at any time. And whether a military commander can dare to take responsibility for his subordinates also involves the cohesion of the troops. Grasping cadres, this is Li Ziyuan's way of leading troops.

Therefore, before going to the battlefield, Li Ziyuan would squeeze the oil and water in his stomach very well for his subordinates. But when he went to the battlefield, he still had to have the final say, and others could not interfere with his command determination. Now he thinks that Zhang Zijian must have other thoughts in his head. So he's going to press it out, and if it's reasonable, he'll naturally take it.

And Zhang Zijian and Li Ziyuan beside him have all said this, and if they don't say their thoughts, it is really a little inauthentic. To put it mildly, if you catch up with the kind of leader with a small belly, you may find a stubble to buckle your hat. Since Li Ziyuan has completely opened all his words, Zhang Zijian has no choice but to hide anything.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Zijian groaned: "Commander, if you ask for my real opinion." Then my idea is to send out the whole regiment, plus all the firepower we have at hand, and strive to capture Pingchuan Town in one go. It's not that you have to occupy this place, but to weaken the strength of this puppet army as much as possible. ”

"The garrison of Pingchuan's puppet garrison is all Wang Tieshi's descendant troops. His lair is in Pingchuan Town, and the garrison placed here cannot have any other troops except for his closest henchmen. Although this guy is like a ghost and has extremely high wrists, he is greedy for life and afraid of death to the extreme. ”

"According to the Japanese army's use of this so-called Ludong and Hubei joint defense garrison, his team headquarters should be located in Ludong, or Baikou Town on the border between Ludong and Hubei is more suitable. But he put this headquarters in Pingchuan Town, where he started. It is enough to show that this guy not only does not trust the other forces that have been incorporated into this puppet army, but even the original Ludong garrison. ”

In other words, Pingchuan's defenders don't seem to have a lot of enemies, but they are the force he trusts the most, and they should also be his starting capital. This puppet army is now composed of three parts, and his original capital is the smallest. This guy is now coming from behind, and the internal contradictions will definitely not be small. ”

"In the previous battle in Ludong, this guy suffered a lot of losses. Although the devil has replenished him now, his actual lineage will not be too much, at least for now. If it weren't for the fact that the original Ludong garrison suffered greater losses, maybe they would have started it now. defeated his descendants and intensified the internal contradictions after the merger of the three puppet armies. ”

"In this way, it is a good thing for the entire Ludong area. The more turmoil there is within the puppet army, the safer our side will be. There are some problems within our army right now, but I don't think the problem is that big. It is said that it has a certain impact on combat effectiveness, but it has not reached the point where it cannot be pulled. ”

"Commander, you know my personality. It's okay to be a deputy or battalion commander, but if I make up my mind, my courage is still a little short. But I think we're integrating forces right now. The puppet army of the so-called puppet Ludong Joint Defense Command was also reintegrated by the three puppet armies. ”

"It's like we're just most of the ideological problems, but they have a huge contradiction before. This contradiction is probably more difficult to reconcile than the problems that exist within us. The contradictions between this Wang Tieshi and the original puppet Jinnan Founding Army, and between the puppet Hubei Garrison and the puppet Ludong Garrison, cannot be explained clearly in a few words. ”

"A piece of meat and bones, it turned out to be divided into three people. Now there are two people's flesh and bones, not to mention that they have been taken back by another person, and the team has been swallowed up by him, is it possible that there is no problem? Although it is the devil who manipulates these behind the scenes, those two parts may not think so. ”

"In such a short period of time, even if he Wang Tieshi has the ability to reach the sky, it is impossible to take these three parts of people. Of course, compared with the puppet Ludong garrison that has been for a longer time, it is mainly the puppet Jinnan Jianguo Army, and his puppet joint defense headquarters are integrated into an iron plate. ”

"And the so-called independent division is not only composed of three units of different formations, which have just been formed after surrendering to the enemy, and the internal situation is not necessarily smoother than ours. I don't need to tell you about the situation over there, you know, it's the same faction's armed forces, and there are many internal contradictions. ”

At the same time, this puppet army has just come from Jinzhong, and it is not familiar with the terrain and enemy situation here, and it is basically in the stage of being unfamiliar with the place. The most important thing is that these troops in the Second World War Zone who defected to the enemy are at least not descendants on their side. The contradictions between the small miscellaneous cards are even deeper to a certain extent. ”

"The current situation in Ludong is very conducive to our individual breakthroughs. We beat Wang Tieshi, the most arrogant rafter, the original puppet Jin Southern Founding Army and the past armament, not only may not be rescued, but may even be on the side to watch the excitement. Even those traitors of the puppet Ludong garrison, which had been merging for a long time, would rise up with the idea of replacing them. ”

"Especially in the background of Wang Tieshi, the 36th Division of the Japanese Army has been transferred to leave the North China battlefield, and Tsuruta Nuanan was chopped alive by you again. The newly transferred 69th Division is far less powerful than the 36th Division, and I estimate that as long as we get rid of Wang Tieshi's starting capital, they will have to make trouble within themselves. ”

"And Wang Tieshi's entire deployment now is also to push the original puppet Jinnan Founding Army on the front line, and use him as a substitute for the dead. Luoma and Qiaokou, these two are under our noses, and they may be attacked at any time, and the puppet army stationed there are all the original puppet Jinnan Founding Army troops. ”

He shrank all his descendant troops to Pingchuan and along the highway north of Pingchuan and Hubei to Ludong. This is enough to show that although this guy, with the support of the Japanese army, annexed the original puppet Jinnan National Salvation Army, he is far from being able to recover these people. ”

"This guy still has almost all the officers over there, and some of them distinguish between primary and secondary, descendant and non-descendant, but they are clear about the old problem. His descendants and henchmen are placed in the back, and others will be substituted for him in front. Do you want him to be satisfied with this approach or believe in him? ”

"The situation we are in is a great opportunity for us. If you wait until this guy straightens out the internal relationship, he will completely swallow the original puppet Jinnan Founding Army troops into his stomach, and complete the complete rectification of the puppet Ludong garrison. Coupled with the so-called independent security division, which has completely gained a foothold in the Ludong area, then we will be passive. ”
