Zeng Sheng is too rigid and dogmatic in thinking, and his brain is less flexible. And He Sanliang's flexibility and military literacy are sufficient, and he also has stability. But at the critical point, it feels like at the critical moment, there is always a beat away.

Li Ziyuan thinks that with Zeng Sheng's ability, being a battalion commander will be a big day. If you put it in the position of the regiment commander, I am afraid that once you go to the battlefield, you will make a mistake. He Sanliang is often at the most critical time, either here or there, there are always some deficiencies. And He Sanliang still has some knots in his heart, and he has never been able to open them.

What is this knot in He Sanliang's heart Li Ziyuan knows very well, but he has not broken it. Li Ziyuan didn't want to pierce the knot in He Sanliang's heart, but this did not prevent Li Ziyuan from seizing every opportunity to instill He Sanliang with some ideas and ways of thinking that were more in line with reality.

The set in his mind that still maintains the pattern of regular warfare and positional warfare should be changed as much as possible. The kind of large-scale battle of the Battle of Linyi, at least for a long time, the Eighth Route Army could not afford to fight, and it could not be fought. He must change as soon as possible, and this way of thinking at the moment will delay the big thing.

At least if he really handed over this force to him, he could be completely at ease. However, in He Sanliang's current state, Li Ziyuan thought that if he was really transferred out of the Hubei Independent Battalion after this counter-sweep, he could only find a way to bump into Jingyang Zhong and take him away.

In the current state of He Sanliang, it is better to hand over the Hubei Independent Battalion to him, than to hand it over to Zeng Sheng. Although Li Ziyuan has always thought that He Sanliang is more suitable, this premise is that He Sanliang's own problems have been adjusted from the root. But at the moment, Li Ziyuan is not very optimistic about He Sanliang's situation.

After Li Ziyuan said this, he didn't say anything more. And He Sanliang over there also quietly fell into thinking. Li Ziyuan's reasoning is not difficult to understand in terms of his military literacy. And the hard work behind Li Ziyuan's words, He Sanliang heard it and understood it. Now he really understands where Li Ziyuan's mind is.

In fact, for He Sanliang at the moment, he just has a bend that he can't turn around. When he was in the ragtag army, although he was also very poor, he had some supplies. When he arrived at the Eighth Route Army, the equipment, food, and even military uniforms of a unit had to be raised by the commander of the unit himself, which was difficult for him to accept.

The quality of the combat effectiveness, equipment, and even the survival of the troops themselves are inseparable from the personal ability of military commanders. If a military commander has the ability, he can eat and drink spicy food. The ability of military commanders is somewhat poor, and the equipment of this unit is varied.

When he was in the miscellaneous army, the duties of the officers below were to train the troops and fight the war, and as for the weapons and equipment and food supplies, it was the business of the superiors. A problem that a battalion commander has to consider like Li Ziyuan is at least a division commander, or even a division commander and commander-in-chief of the group army.

He was also short of supplies on the side of the miscellaneous army, and he counted the bullets in a battle, but it had not yet reached the point where the Eighth Route Army only gave five bullets. There is also the combat method of the Eighth Route Army, which he has never adapted to. Melee combat, night fighting, ambush warfare, this kind of combat method that seems to him to be just a petty fight, or even a thief, He Sanliang has not yet adapted to it.

The food is almost good, the clothes are tattered, He Sanliang actually doesn't care much. He was over there, and since he entered the Taihang Mountains to fight, his supplies were also very poor, and his food was similar to that here. But this kind of military commander can't use all his thoughts on the battlefield. also has to worry about the survival mode of the troops below, which undoubtedly makes it difficult for He Sanliang to adapt.

Another point is that He Sanliang is very unsuitable for the political work system of the Eighth Route Army. He and his instructor who died at the foot of the Cross Ridge have never straightened out the relationship in terms of cooperation. The existence of political work cadres makes him feel that there is a pair of eyes staring behind him every time he fights.

In his mind, the impression of those political workers was that they were a war supervisor and a military supervisor. Or the people who infiltrated the Central Army in the first place, those who monitored or even split the motley forces. In He Sanliang's eyes, these political workers are a group of guys who have not achieved enough things and have more than enough failures.

For these political work cadres, He Sanliang is three points of congenital rejection. In that ragtag army before, he ate these political workers sent by the Central Army, sawed the bottom of the bowl as glasses when everything happened, and had nothing to do to find trouble. If it weren't for the commander-in-chief and chief of staff, he would have almost not been taken away by these political workers of the Central Army.

The officers of the miscellaneous army were taken away by the political work cadres of the Central Army, and the fools know what the result was. He only knew that his battalion commander had not returned even after he had been taken away. I heard that on the way to the war zone, he was buried alive by political workers.

In his eyes, these political workers retreated as soon as they fought, and no one could see them. When the battle is over, he jumps out and looks for faults everywhere. His past experience made him quite repulsive to all political workers, no matter what aspect they were. He Sanliang is not suitable for everything about the Eighth Route Army, to be precise, in one sentence. If you say it is bigger, it is quite uncomfortable.

He chose to stay and come to Li Ziyuan's troops, to be precise, it was Li Ziyuan who played a more role. Li Ziyuan has a flexible mind, dares to fight, and eclectic combat methods, which He Sanliang likes very much. Coupled with the unpleasant experience in the miscellaneous army at the beginning, he chose to stay.

But he was still a little uncomfortable for such a long time, which made He Sanliang a little timid in the battle. But today's Li Ziyuan's words made him feel a little. In the battle at the foot of the Cross Ridge, his instructor held him down as he was about to rush out, and told him to stay behind and command.

With a squad of fighters, he launched a counter-charge against the Japanese army in front of him. And the instructor who led the counterattack was smashed in the chest by a machine gun during the battle. Inside his satchel, He Sanliang found a diary. Although because of the low level of education, the diary is written stumblingly, and even some words are not understood.

But in the diary, there are many things. From what cadres and soldiers lack, how can we think of solutions. As for the experience of appearing with He San, it can be said that everything is written in great detail. He Sanliang was in tears when he saw this diary, and it was also the first time he knew what the difference was between the political workers of the two armies.

This is also the main reason why Li Ziyuan said these words today and made him fall silent. He Sanliang fell silent, and Li Ziyuan naturally didn't say anything more. He has said enough today, and the rest depends on He Sanliang's comprehension ability. And Li Ziyuan believed that some of the meanings contained in his words today were also heard by He Sanliang.

One of them was lost in thought, and the other continued to hold up the telescope to observe the movement around him. Li Ziyuan's current position seemed very silent. The non-combatants behind them fell silent because the situation was just as tense as it was high.

It's just that when Li Ziyuan raised his hand through the telescope, he was already faintly sour, but he still didn't observe any signs of his brother's troops appearing in the surrounding mountains. The division headquarters should be nearby, but will the division headquarters detect the battle at this time. After discovering the battle here, what kind of approach the division headquarters will take, Li Ziyuan does not know at the moment.

In fact, Li Ziyuan didn't know, his intuition was quite accurate. At present, the headquarters of the 29th Division and the headquarters of the Taihang Military Region are indeed operating in Shexian County, and they are also looking for them. There are also the various organs of the headquarters that broke out from the Cross Ridge, and the personnel who have not yet returned to the team.

When the headquarters broke out, under the severe situation, in order to prevent the radio stations, especially the passwords, from falling into the hands of the Japanese army, a chain reaction would be triggered, and all the radio stations were smashed and all the passwords were burned. At present, the headquarters has no radio station, and the division headquarters can only rely on sending a large number of scouts to find the headquarters in a short time, but this efficiency can only be said to be very low.

Even though the division commander and political commissar are anxious about the security of the headquarters, they have never been able to get in touch with the headquarters. Except for Li Ziyuan, the old superior, who collected a group of separated personnel, the rest of the troops only received the team led by the director of the Field Political Department. The rest of the headquarters is still being searched.

In addition, the division headquarters, which is also the focus of the Japanese army's sweep this time, are also constantly being transferred. It is not an easy task to find the headquarters, and it is even more difficult to find the affairs of Li Ziyuan's department. Despite the best efforts of the division headquarters, there was still no trace of Li Ziyuan's troops.

Of course, what can make the division commander pay so much attention is not just Li Ziyuan himself, who has never heard from him after receiving the task from himself. Rather, he first received a briefing from the director of the Field Political Department on the situation at that time, which greeted the breakthrough troops of the Political Department. Later, after receiving a report from Li Ziyuan's old superior, who was transferred through the local military division.

Knowing that Li Ziyuan was escorting so many non-combat personnel with a force of no more than 100 people, the division commander could be said to be anxious. In addition to Li Ziyuan's own situation, which made the division commander very worried, there were also the hundreds of non-combatants from various organs of the headquarters that he escorted, which made the division commander and political commissar even more worried.

The division commander personally gave an order to the local military sub-district and the surrounding troops who could be contacted, even if they searched the entire Taihang Mountain, they must find out Li Ziyuan. It's just that along the way, Li Ziyuan first concealed his whereabouts and did not dare to contact the local armed forces. Later, because he was bitten by Tsuruta Numa, in order to avoid being surrounded by the Japanese army who got the news from the surrounding area, he did not dare to enter any village.

However, the division headquarters and all the troops who received the report, and a large number of reconnaissance personnel sent out, finally discovered something after several efforts. Especially when Li Ziyuan's side was fighting hard with Tsuruta Nunan's advance team, the dense gunfire that came out far away was like a summoning order.

The surrounding area was still struggling to find their division headquarters, as well as several units that had received orders, and the scouts sent almost unanimously followed the sound of gunfire. It's just that these two troops, both wearing the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army and holding the weapons of the Eighth Route Army in their hands, fought. There were more than a dozen Japanese soldiers watching the battle, and the scouts who appeared nearby were confused.

Especially when Li Ziyuan's department fought with the Japanese advance team, the two sides showed that they were not going to die, and even used their fists and teeth in hand-to-hand combat. It is even more difficult for the scouts of all units to understand, even if it is the Japanese army.
