Chapter 182: Seven Things

Because Xiao Siming didn't want to expand on it, he briefly talked about the response to the suggestions of several people just now. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

For example, Ma Zhenhua said that the 31st detachment successively captured Yanshan County and Wudi County, but they couldn't hold it, Xiao Siming said that simply capturing the county seat would definitely not be able to hold it! The reason, in addition to the strength of the enemy and our weakness, the most important thing is that the foundation is not strong. It is not important whether or not the county seat is captured, but it is important to establish party organizations, anti-Japanese regimes, and armed forces at the border district, county, district, and village levels.

With regard to the party's organizational building, Xiao Siming said: The military and political committees of the border regions should set up organization departments to focus on organizational building and the development of party members at all levels. At the local level, party committees will be established in border districts, county party committees will be established in counties, district party committees will be established in districts, and party branches will be established in villages. In the troops, the regiment has set up a party committee, the battalion has set up a general branch, and the company has set up a branch, so as to unswervingly implement the glorious tradition of our army's branch building on the company. Regardless of whether it is a local or a military, there is a party group under the branch. In this way, each party group and each branch raised a string of pearls, inlaid on the land on the border of Hebei and Shandong, and lifted a string. As long as this article is implemented well, whether it is a puppet army traitor or a little devil, no matter what tricks are used in the Lijilu Border Plain, no matter what tricks are used, they will not be able to win the hearts of the people, and they will not be tenable!

With regard to the building of political power, Xiao Siming said: The Hebei-Shandong Border Region should build an anti-Japanese democratic government, just like the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Border Region Government, which will carry out administrative management throughout the region. At present, the situation in the Hebei-Shandong-Hebei border is better than that in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei region, and the Hebei Provincial Government and the Shandong Provincial Government do not know where it is, and this is a state of anarchy, so we must seize this gap and quickly establish an anti-Japanese democratic government in the Hebei-Shandong border and carry the banner of resistance against Japan. All counties and districts should establish anti-Japanese governments, and villages should elect anti-Japanese village heads, militia captains, and directors of women's relief associations. That is to say, the entire border region, from the village to the district to the county to the entire border region, from top to bottom, formed an anti-Japanese democratic government system. In this way, no matter where the troops are fighting on the Jilu border, they will be able to eat and get the support, support, and cover of the masses.

In terms of armed forces, Xiao Siming said that the Hebei-Shandong border region should build a three-in-one armed system of the main force, local troops, and militia. The main force, that is, the regular army, specializes in fighting; The local armed forces, in the base areas, undertake the task of garrisoning, and in the enemy-occupied areas, that is, guerrillas, specialize in fighting guerrillas and sneak attacks on the Japanese puppet army. The militia is an armed force that does not leave production, holding a hoe in one hand and a gun in the other, farming and training in their spare time, and organizing and supporting the front and undertaking vigilance tasks in wartime. When encountering a devil sweep, the militia team has to cover the transfer of the masses and deal with the enemy.

With regard to the main force, Xiao Siming said: The most urgent task of the advance brigade at present is to let the troops rest and recuperate, complete the training of new recruits, and quickly replenish the battalions so that they can be fully strengthened. The most urgent task of the 31 st Detachment is to strengthen the allocation of military cadres, intensify military training, and rapidly enhance its combat effectiveness. After completing this task, the advance brigade and the 31st detachment were unified and reorganized into the eastward advance detachment of the Eighth Route Army.

Xiao Siming also talked about the general reorganization plan, that is, the first and fourth battalions of the advance brigade were reorganized into one regiment, the second and fifth battalions were reorganized into two regiments, the third and sixth battalions were reorganized into three regiments, and the 31st detachment was reorganized into four regiments. After the reorganization, the whole detachment has a total of four infantry regiments, one cavalry regiment, one artillery regiment, one air defense regiment, one engineer regiment, one baggage regiment, and one heavy machine gun battalion.

With regard to the local armed forces, Xiao Siming said: In each of the 21 counties along the Hebei and Shandong borders, each county must set up a county brigade and an independent battalion, each district must establish a district squadron, and each village must establish a militia unit. The method is that the main battalions and companies will assist the localities in forming armed forces, including training and actual combat training, so that in the future, after the test of war, the local units whose combat effectiveness will be enhanced can be incorporated into the main forces, the main forces will be expanded, and new local armed forces can be reorganized!

Having said so much, it is equivalent to drawing a picture for the big guy and depicting a bright future! How to achieve it, Xiao Siming hasn't said yet!

Just when the leaders attending the meeting listened with relish, Xiao Siming lit another cigarette and continued: "If you want to achieve this goal, cadres are the decisive factor. Without a strong cadre team, everything is in vain! Therefore, the first thing the military and political committee of the Jilu border region should do after arriving in Leling was to merge the camp school of the advance brigade with the cadre training team of the 31st brigade and open the military and political cadre school of the Jilu border to train cadres in the form of a crash course. The content of the course is party building, military political work, military knowledge, **** work, united front, etc. The trainees were recruited from the advanced brigade, the 31st brigade of the company and platoon cadres with a literate foundation, and the intellectuals of the Jilu border, and the party organizations in each county sent the trainees. In the first batch, a minimum of 500 students will be enrolled and the duration of the study will be three months. After the end of the first batch, the second, third, fourth, and fifth phases will be held consecutively. After graduating, the cadets are assigned to work in various units and counties. With these groups of cadres, we will have county and district cadres, as well as branch secretaries, village heads, militia captains, and directors of women's relief associations in county brigades, district squadrons, and central villages. ”

The second thing to do is to set up a teaching team.

Xiao Siming said: The main purpose of the teaching team is to train squad cadres and combat backbones of the troops. When I was in Yuxian, a teaching team was set up, but the conditions did not allow it at that time, and in just a few days, the cadres of the original independent battalion were trained in rotation. It was the rotation training in the past few days that transformed the independent battalion and brought earth-shaking changes in tactical thinking and tactical skills. If the army wants to develop in a big way, it will not be possible to do without outstanding cadres who have come out of the battlefield. An infantry squad without a few combat backbones is also not good! Now that we have arrived at the border of Hebei and Shandong, we have arrived at home, and at the same time as we have established a school for military and political cadres, we must also set up a teaching team to train the backbone combat cadres in batches and phases, and the time will also be three months each. The main force will be trained in rotation first, and in the future, it will also be necessary to train the backbone combat cadres of the local armed forces in rotation. As long as there is the support of the backbone of the battle, the combat effectiveness of the troops will naturally be improved!

The third thing to be done, Xiao Siming said that the new barracks were renamed the recruit corps, and the recruitment and training were regularized.

The reason Xiao Siming said is that if the army wants to develop and expand, and if it wants to win and fight a big battle, it will not work without a steady stream of soldiers. Why was the Japanese army so rampant? In addition to being well equipped and standardizing weapons, the most important thing is that they have a complete mobilization mechanism, and soldiers who enlist in the army must now complete 11 months of recruit training in China. We should also do the same, and we must institutionalize, standardize, and regularize the training of new recruits. It is necessary not only to ensure the quality of training for new recruits, but also to ensure that there is a steady stream of recruits to replenish the troops.

Xiao Siming said that the Hebei and Shandong borders have a population of 6 million and sufficient troops. Especially in the Cangxian and Yanshan areas, there have been the habit of practicing martial arts since ancient times, and there are high-quality soldiers. As long as the propaganda and mobilization work is done well, there is no worry that there are no good young people who join the army and enlist as the Eighth Road, carrying guns and wielding knives to kill the East!

When speaking of this, Xiao Siming deliberately emphasized that the most direct source of recruits is the numerous miscellaneous armed forces on the Jilu border. Some of these miscellaneous armed forces were resolutely anti-Japanese, some were pulled up out of self-defense and self-protection, and some were armed by landlords, bandits, and sects. These miscellaneous armed forces, lacking training and low combat effectiveness, collect grain and distribute money every day, increasing the burden on the common people. What is particularly infuriating is that most of the miscellaneous armed forces run away when they see the little devils, and never dare to shoot at the devils. If the devils sweep the Jilu border with heavy troops, a considerable part of these miscellaneous armed forces will openly surrender to the enemy and become traitors. In the future, some of the guerrilla armed forces will accept the name of the local government of the Kuomintang and the Kuomintang, and they are nominally guerrilla forces behind enemy lines of the Kuomintang Army, but in fact they do not fight devils, but only fight our Eighth Route Army. Taking advantage of the fire to rob and take away Liu Yanchen's troops and Zhang Ziliang's troops from Yanshan County and Wudi County from the hands of the 31st Detachment, they are typical examples of this kind of miscellaneous armed forces!

In dealing with these miscellaneous armed forces, Xiao Siming said that the policy is to support those who resolutely resist Japan, eliminate those who openly and semi-openly defect to the enemy, and reorganize those who do not resist Japan under the banner of anti-Japanese resistance!

Xing Renfu asked: "Captain Xiao, what if people refuse to reorganize us?" ”

Four words burst out from between Xiao Siming's teeth: "Destroy on the spot!" ”

Ma Zhenhua frowned and thought for a while, and asked, "Will this affect the united front?" ”

Xiao Siming smiled: "No!" They are not **** regular troops, they are all scaring people with some messy numbers! If they really fight devils, the little devils have occupied Jinan, and now they are attacking Taierzhuang, they see the Japanese army on the Jinpu Road going south day and night, why don't they go to the railway to fight devils? To put it bluntly, these miscellaneous armed forces are all selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, and the little devils do not besiege, they are prevalent as commanders, brigade commanders, and regiment commanders; When the little devils besieged, they either surrendered openly, or hooked up with the little devils, secretly made a joke, and stabbed them in the back while our army was fighting with the Japanese army. Therefore, the reorganization of the miscellaneous armed forces cannot be soft! Or, accept the reorganization of our army; Or, destroy it! ”

Ma Zhenhua, Xing Renfu, and Di Yudong all nodded straight and agreed with Xiao Siming's statement.

This is the method adopted by the advance brigade in the Xingxi Mountains, and Wang Lushui and the others naturally have no doubts!

The fourth thing to be done, Xiao Siming said that he wanted to immediately set up an arsenal, reload ammunition, repair damaged firearms, and manufacture grenades, mines, and explosive packages. Landmines, in particular, will be the necessary equipment for the militia to deal with the Japanese puppet army in the future. You can even bury the mines in front of the stronghold of the Japanese puppet army, let them step on the mines as soon as they go out, and see if he dares to be so crazy!

The equipment transported from Taiyuan City is loaded on the rubber-tyred cart all the way!

With ready-made equipment and ready-made military technicians, opening an arsenal is a matter of course!

Just when everyone was listening attentively, Xiao Siming said the fifth thing, that is, the military operation in front of him.

Xiao Siming said: Unfortunately, the current situation does not allow us to calm down and train our troops, and we can only fight while training. At present, it is necessary to take advantage of the opportunity that the Japanese puppet army is busy fighting in Shanxi and Lunan to quickly capture Yanshan, Qingyun, and Wudi counties, form a base with Leling as the center, and then expand to the surrounding areas. Therefore, after a short rest and recuperation, the advance brigade should quickly launch an operation, and the 31 st detachment should cooperate with the advance brigade in combat, first taking Qingyun and Wudi, and then Yanshan, turning Yanshan, Ningjin, Leling, Qingyun, and Wudi into the central base areas of the Hebei-Shandong border region.

In order to cover the main force's combat operations to capture Yanshan, Qingyun, and Wudi, and also to fulfill the orders of the Military Commission, the General Headquarters, and the division headquarters, Xiao Siming said that he would personally lead the cavalry company to fight guerrilla attacks along the Jinpu Road, so as to contain the Japanese troops in Pingjin and Tianjin from smoothly moving south for reinforcements and further sabotage the railway.

Huang Hua immediately said: "Captain, you are in command of the battles to capture Yanshan, Qingyun, and Wudi, and I will lead the cavalry company to carry out the orders of the Military Commission!" ”

Xiao Siming shook his head, sighed, and said, "You can't go!" We have a cavalry company, which is still newly built, and there are devils' armored patrol cars on the Jinpu Road, and if they are bitten by the Japanese army, our cavalry company will not be able to come back. Or I'll go, I don't worry if you go! ”

Seeing that Huang Hua was unconvinced, Xiao Siming smiled and said, "Lao Huang, I don't mean that your command ability is not good, but that I have an advantage over you." It's really not good, Lao Tzu will disguise the little devil cavalry, and it's convenient to fight or run! ”

This is true, at least Xiao Siming can speak Japanese, Huang Hua can't!

Xiao Siming continued: "The battle to capture Qingyun, Wudi, and Yanshan is divided into three ways to play: the first way to capture Qingyun City, a surprise attack is sufficient. There are only 200 puppet soldiers in the city, and they can't withstand the blows of our army! The second is to recapture Wudi, the method is very simple, after our army captures Qingyun, Zhang Ziliang may be afraid of our army's attack, and I judge that he will ask our army to reorganize. It's just that he's a fake adaptation, and he just wants to get a name. You just have to sing the fake drama for real. In case my judgment is wrong, Zhang Ziliang did not take the initiative to ask our army to reorganize, it is very simple, let the first battalion, the second battalion, the third battalion and the armored battalion disguise themselves as Japanese troops to attack Wudi, Zhang Ziliang's goods will definitely run away without firing a shot, turning around, and our army can capture Wudi County without blood. The third is to capture the stronghold of devils in Yanshan County and the old county town, and the old way is to encircle the point and send reinforcements. The 31st detachment besieged the Japanese puppet stronghold in the old county town, and the advance brigade set up an ambush circle, and the county seat of Yanshan could be recovered in one battle. ”

Sixth, Xiao Siming is talking about how to build local political power, local armed forces, and militia teams.

Xiao Siming said that after the capture of Yanshan, Qingyun, and Wudi, and after the training of the troops was completed, the troops would be organized in Ningjin, Leling, Qingyun, Wudi, and Yanshan Wuxian with battalions and companies as units, and each main battalion would cover one county, and the county, district, and village political power would be established, and the county brigade, independent battalion, district squadron, and village militia would be established. After completing these five counties, we will develop to northern Lubei, one county and one county. Before the end of the year, pull up all the county brigades, district squadrons, and militia teams in each county!

The seventh thing, Xiao Siming said, from now on, for those villages that have achieved great results in their work and where the village political power and militia have been consolidated, the villagers should be immediately mobilized to dig tunnels. The engineer battalion is responsible for providing technical guidance for this task.

As for how to dig the tunnel, Xiao Siming didn't say anything, only said that he would let the engineer battalion of the advance brigade do technical guidance, and did not say anything deeper. (To be continued.) )
