Section 8 Day Thin 8
When Deng Yanda and Chen Mingshu rushed to the serious house, not only Zhuang Jihua was there, but there was also another person, this was Mei Yuntian, the three of them were sitting around the coffee table drinking tea, and there were several bags of tea on the table on one side. Full // this // small // say // net
Deng Yanda looked at Zhuang Jihua, the war was not so tense, but Zhuang Jihua looked thinner, his cheeks were sunken, his face was a little pale, and his eyes were bloodshot.
"Cultural Revolution, don't be too anxious, it's useless to rush some things." Chen Mingshu looked a little heartbroken, of course he knew that Zhuang Jihua was under tremendous pressure, to quickly restore the economy of the Northeast and develop the industry in the Northeast, a huge amount of money was needed, but now his hands were empty, and the central government allocated 500 million legal currency, which seemed to be a lot, but a little east and a little west, it was not enough at all.
Mei Yuntian estimated that in order to develop the northeast to the extent of the southwest within ten years, at least 1.6 billion fiat currency must be invested in the northeast every year, and this does not include military spending. Zhuang Jihua's estimate is even more pessimistic, once he tears his face with Chiang Kai-shek, military spending will inevitably be deducted, and the million-dollar army under his command will need tens of millions of military salaries per month, not including other expenses.
The Northeast is recovered, all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt, tens of millions of people want to eat, Zhuang Jihua is so busy every day that he can only sleep for a few hours, exhausting himself and planning various strategies.
"Director Deng, General Chen, I have a major decision to discuss with you this time." Zhuang Jihua smiled at Chen Mingshu, indicating that he understood his kindness.
Seriously brewed tea for Deng Yanda and Chen Mingshu: "This is just brought by the Cultural Revolution, the big red robe of Wuyi Mountain, this year's new tea." As he spoke, he pointed to the tea bag on the table: "One bag for each of you, take it with you when you leave." ”
Chen Mingshu was overjoyed and applauded: "Okay, good, this tea is good, I just want to ask someone to bring a few packs, thank you, Yuntian." ”
These teas were obviously not brought by Zhuang Jihua, Mei Yuntian smiled: "Don't thank me." If you want to thank the Cultural Revolution, this is what others brought to the Cultural Revolution, and we are blessed by him. ”
Deng Yanda is not particular about these, any tea is fine, no tea, coffee. Plain water is fine. He looked at Zhuang Jihua and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
"Military reclamation," Zhuang Jihua said, "has too many troops, and the pressure on military spending is huge, and if we want to reduce this pressure, we must reduce the number of troops." But the army can't be disbanded, after all, peace has not really been achieved yet, so I want to take out a few divisions to experiment with farming. In addition, General Yu Peili's engineering units should be expanded, and some combat units should be transferred to engineering units. ”
Zhuang Jihua's eyes have been staring at Deng Yanda, this time he plans to transfer out the agricultural reclamation and the troops that have been transformed into engineering troops, mainly from the People's Front troops, the main reason for this choice is that they have defected to the local troops of the People's Front, and these troops are relatively poorly equipped and trained. Compared with the elite Central Army Mechanized Expeditionary Force, it is too much worse.
Chen Mingshu's expression became serious at once, as the commander-in-chief of the People's Front, of course he hoped that the People's Front troops would be preserved. Deng Yanda listened silently. Waiting for Zhuang Jihua to continue to explain.
"This time the army will be reorganized, although the number will not be reduced, but some troops will be merged. I plan to first form a farming division and expand the engineering unit into a division. ”
Zhuang Jihua paused and added: "The main thing is to temporarily organize the 19th Army and the 108th Army, these two armies will eventually be merged into one army, and the Sichuan troops will also be reorganized. ”
After Deng Yanda and Chen Mingshu listened, neither of them was in a hurry to speak, Deng Yanda smoked a cigarette and looked at the rising smoke silently.
Since the Republic of China, all the disarmament has been cut out of war, Chiang Kai-shek was disarmed after the Second Northern Expedition, and finally cut out the Chiang-Gui War, the Chiang-Feng War, and the Central Plains War; Sichuan has hundreds of thousands of troops, which crushed the entire Sichuan finances, and every Sichuan overseer wants to disarm, Liu Cunhou and Xiong Kewu want to disarm, and the result is war.
With the exception of the troops led by Xia Yang, Lin and Chen Lie, who were former members of the Third Party, most of the generals of the local troops who joined the People's Front had just clarified their relationship with the People's Front, but it was necessary to lay off their troops, and it was conceivable how much confusion this would cause in their troops.
"Will the Central Army participate in the reorganization?" Chen Mingshu asked.
Zhuang Jihua shook his head: "In addition to the Fifth Army and the First Mechanized Group Army, the Central Army in the theater is an expeditionary force, and these troops are very well equipped and trained, so there is no reason to cut them." ”
This is both pertinent and practical, the Central Army under Zhuang Jihua is all elite, all of them are American-style equipment troops, and they were established with the help of the Americans, and they are all first-class in China at present in terms of equipment and training, and there is no strong reason to move them, not only Fan Hanjie and Qiu Qingquan will not agree, but Chiang Kai-shek will never agree to it.
"Mr. Deng, General Chen, according to the calculations of the Cultural Revolution, the total strength of your party's troops is about 480,000, and according to the calculation of 30 legal currency per soldier, the military expenditure alone will need 14 million legal currency per month, and the financial pressure is huge, and we can't afford to support it at all." Mei Yuntian saw that Deng Yanda and Chen Mingshu were hesitating, so he interjected.
"Our disarmament is not simply to disband the troops, but to temporarily leave these troops from the battlefield, we arrange land and work for them, so that the soldiers have a way out, not only to reduce the financial pressure, but also to provide income for the troops." Zhuang Jihua continued to persuade that the original plan was to disarm after the peaceful realization of the country, but now the huge financial gap has forced him to take this step ahead of schedule.
Deng Yanda extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray, picked up the teacup and said: "This matter must be discussed with them and their consent must be obtained, Cultural Revolution, you haven't announced it yet, right?" ”
Zhuang Jihua shook his head, and when he decided to disarm, Feng Yi warned him that he must consult with the generals in advance and explain the difficulties to them thoroughly, especially the generals who are scheduled to be transferred to the agricultural reclamation and engineering units, and also obtain the understanding of Deng Yanda and Chen Mingshu, and then report to Chiang Kai-shek after all this is done.
Feng Wei was not worried about Chiang Kai-shek, Chiang Kai-shek must be very happy about Zhuang Jihua's move, and it would also alleviate his doubts about Zhuang Jihua, of course, in his case, Zhuang Jihua's problem was not the reason for the relationship with GCD or Deng Yanda. However, Feng Yi's analysis may have delayed his steps.
"This is natural, but teacher, General Chen, the country's previous disarmaments have led to turmoil, I hope this disarmament can be stable, in addition, we must also be vigilant against people taking advantage of the situation."
Zhuang Jihua looked at Deng Yanda when he said this, Deng Yanda and Chen Mingshu nodded almost at the same time, indicating that they understood, Chen Mingshu said: "Director Yan, it depends on your political work cadres. ”
Seriously the director of the General Political Department of the People's Front Army, nodded seriously: "Political work should be strengthened, but political work is still a new topic for our army. In recent years, we have mainly trained military cadres and neglected the training of political cadres, and now we must make up for this lesson. ”
In recent years, the principal leaders of the People's Front have been painstakingly thinking about how to expand the army and have trained a large number of military cadres, and the number of political work cadets in military academies is far lower than that of military cadres.
"Political cadres can be vigorously promoted, and the most critical leaders, especially the party representatives at the regimental level, are very important, which is equivalent to the county magistrate in the local administration, although this level of officials is small, but it is very important." Zhuang Jihua brought out his own experience, he attached great importance to county-level cadres, when he was in Chongqing, he had to personally meet each county magistrate before appointing them, and there were five or six county-level cadres killed in this rectification.
"Break the county order, destroy the door order Yin; Although the county magistrate is small, he is the official closest to the people, and the information must be uploaded and the information must be issued, and it is all on them. He nodded in serious agreement.
Zhuang Jihua thought for a while and said to Zheng: "Teacher, I suggest that you can transfer some local cadres into the army to serve as party representatives at the battalion and company level, or you can boldly promote those activists among the soldiers, and you don't necessarily have to be trained from military academies. ”
Seriously smiled and said, "That's a good idea." ”
As soon as the words fell, Chen Mingshu couldn't help but show a smile, he had already discovered that he was now obedient to Zhuang Jihua's words, and almost unreservedly supported his suggestions and plans.
"The affairs of the cadres are urgent, and they can't pull out the seedlings to help them grow," Deng Yanda said: "Cultural Revolution, you see if you can let Gao Shuxun and them disclose their identities now." ”
This was a major move planned by Deng Yanda, the generals of the People's Front in the army still maintained a secret identity, and as time went on, it became more and more difficult for them to keep this identity, and Chiang Kai-shek's monitoring of these local generals became more and more tight, Gao Shuxun reported that the deputy commander appointed by the Central Committee had warned him several times to keep his distance from the People's Formation, and he suspected that Chiang Kai-shek already knew his identity.
Zhuang Jihua thought for a while and said: "Step by step, let's take one first, see the principal's reaction, and then decide the next step, the specific candidate, discuss with them first." ”
"That's good, the movement is small, and it won't irritate Chiang Kai-shek too much." Seriously.
"I'll see it." This time, Chen Mingshu also nodded approvingly, they had suffered a lot of losses in this regard before, and the momentum seemed quite big, just like the third party at the beginning, how powerful it was, but it was wiped out in a blink of an eye.
On the contrary, Zhuang Jihua has never pursued any great momentum, and has always adopted this way of walking in small steps, low-key, and quietly developing strength, but to go faster and more steadily.
Chen Mingshu didn't care whether it would alarm Chiang Kai-shek, whether it was Gao Shuxun or He Guozhu, as long as the identity of the commander of the army was revealed, it would definitely alarm Chiang Kai-shek, but now the establishment of a party is already a trend, and the military generals have announced that they have joined a certain party, even if Chiang Kai-shek wants to suppress it, it cannot be blatant.
However, as long as any of the generals with troops publicly announce their joining the PFLP, it will shake up the Chinese political arena and will inevitably trigger a series of reactions.
The next year, or even a few months, will determine the future direction of China!
War! Still is! Peace!
