Chapter 356: The Battle of North China (3)
Although there were many things to be discussed at this military meeting, it did not take long. The meeting ended at about 11 a.m. and lasted less than three hours.
After the meeting, Han Yunhua immediately sent a telegram to Yan'an along with the resolution of the meeting and his battle plan for the Battle of North China. Due to the continuous improvement of the strategic position of the Inner Mongolia Military Region, its important surnames are also increasing. By now, the entire military region has become a large military region directly under the party Central Committee, and it is also the only military region directly under the party Central Committee. Therefore, every military plan and combat mission of the Inner Mongolia Military Region can now be carried out without the consent of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, and Han Yunhua, the commander of the Military Region, only needs to be directly responsible to the party Central Committee.
Yan'an, [***] cave.
During this period, telegrams frequently came from various localities, saying that Chiang Kai-shek's political axe's actions against our base areas were becoming more frequent and excessive, and that a new round of [***]** seemed to have arrived, so how to deal a severe blow to the offensive of the Kuomintang diehards on the premise of maintaining the anti-Japanese national united front has become a difficult problem facing the Party Central Committee.
As the de facto supreme leader of China, [***] is well aware of [***]'s situation at this time. As an old opponent of Chiang Kai-shek for more than ten years, he also knew Chiang Kai-shek's thoughts very well. Seeing that the power of [***] is getting bigger and bigger, and in just over two years, [***] has developed from the original 3rd division and 6th brigade of more than 45,000 troops to a behemoth with more than 400,000 elite regular troops, Chairman Jiang is anxious.
However, the chairman's heart is also very bright, after all, Chairman Chiang is Chairman Chiang, and he is still very clear about the priorities, which can be seen from his ability to brazenly order the troops to resist the invasion of the Yue army, but how many shortcomings he has as a person, but just because he can rely on the fact that the enemy is strong and we are weak, and the difference in strength between me and my strength is huge, and he is still not afraid when he knows that he cannot do anything, and calls on the 450,000,000 compatriots of the Chinese nation and the Republic of China to join hands to resist the enemy, and he Chiang Kai-shek is a rational person. The main contradiction in the current society is the national contradiction between the Chinese and the Chinese, while the struggle between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party is a class contradiction and a contradiction between brothers. In the face of the Oriental bandits who destroyed their families and exterminated their clans, whether it was Chairman Jiang or [***], they all knew what to do, and without the nods of the two bigwigs, the anti-national united front was so easy to establish?
Therefore, the chairman also knows that no matter how big the position of Chairman Chiang is, he will not completely turn his face with [***], and now he is obviously going to completely destroy China, and to put it mildly, Chairman Chiang is equivalent to the king of the dead country. There are many examples in history of how the rulers of the new dynasty treated the old dynasty's fallen king, whether it was the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, the son of the dead king was worse than death, but the new dynasty generally adopted a policy of appeasement for the dignitaries and nobles of the old dynasty, so once he really destroyed China, the worst thing for the son was Chairman Jiang, so [***] was not afraid of him Jiang someone.
Moreover, the leaders of [***] understood at a deeper level that Chairman Chiang was doing this nothing more than trying to beat [***] and restrict the expansion of the Eighth Route Army.
But despite this, the chairman and others still didn't dare to be too careless, after all, Chairman Chiang had done a lot of things to massacre [***] members and the revolutionary masses, and he couldn't guarantee that he Jiang would take [***] to the knife. For a person with a criminal record like Chairman Chiang, precautions are necessary. Therefore, in the past few days, the chairman has been thinking about how to counter friction, and he also intends to come up with a document surnamed something to distribute to the troops.
"Dangdangdang" There was a quick knock on the door.
"Come in"
Xiao Zhang, the chairman's guard, squeaked open the door and walked in, and then handed the chairman a thick telegram: "Report to the chairman, this is an urgent telegram from the Inner Mongolia Military Region, and the degree of secrecy has reached the five-A level, please check it by the chairman." ”
The chairman looked at the telegram and found that the lacquer and seal were intact, indicating that the telegram had not been opened since it was translated. So he said with satisfaction: "Very good, the telegram has arrived safely, Xiao Zhang, you go out, I will call you later." ”
"Okay chairman, then you are busy first, I am outside the door, you can call me if you have something." After saying that, Xiao Zhang pushed open the door and walked out, bringing the door up by the way.
After Xiao Zhang went out, the chairman immediately opened the telegram and read it, the fifth-A telegram was the first fifth-A telegram sent since the introduction of Han Yunhua's secret classification system, which was enough to explain the important surname of the telegram.
It took half an hour for the chairman to read the telegram sent by Han Yunhua, and after reading the telegram, the chairman picked up a pencil and deduced Han Yunhua's battle plan on the huge national map.
After a while, the chairman's brow tightened, and he realized that no matter how he calculated, there would be a certain loophole. Since there are loopholes, it means that there is a problem with this battle plan, and it is not that the battle plan with problems cannot be implemented, but it is much more cautious in implementing it. In light of the frequent movements of the Chinese army in North China during this period, the chairman also agreed to carry out a major attack on the Chinese army. However, like Han Yunhua, he suddenly dispatched three or four hundred thousand troops to fight the main decisive battle with the Yue army, and the chairman and others still did not think about it.
"Xiao Zhang, you go and invite the boss, Enlai, Bi Shi, and [***] comrades to come, and say that there is something important." Since he couldn't make a decision, the chairman decided to discuss it with Vice Chairman Zhou and others before replying to Han Yunhua.
Soon, the chairman's small cave became lively, and Commander-in-Chief Zhu, Vice Chairman Zhou, Comrade Bi Shi, and President Lin came together.
After the guest of honor sat down, Vice Chairman Zhou asked: "What is the chairman in such a hurry to invite us here to discuss, is there something wrong at the front line?" ”
"Enlai, your brain is turning fast, it's really a problem on the front line, this is an urgent telegram sent by Comrade Han Yunhua, the confidentiality level is level 5A, that is to say, only the five of us in the entire party can have the right to know, even Lao Peng They have no right to know, everyone circulate it, and we will talk about it after reading it." The Chairman said slowly.
"Five-A-level, good baby, what is this Comrade Yunhua going to do?" The boss asked in surprise.
However, the chairman smiled and said nothing, he knew that what he said now was not as attractive as Han Yunhua's telegram, so it was better to wait for these old comrades to read the telegram before talking about anything else.
It didn't take long to read, and after ten minutes, when President Lin, who was the last to circulate the telegram, put down the telegram, the chairman said, "What do you think?" Let's just say that in any case, Comrade Han Yunhua's battle plan is extremely risky in my eyes, and the time has not yet come for a decisive battle with the main force of the Chinese army, and it is unrealistic and unwise to rashly fight with the entire North China region of the Chinese army without the containment of the frontal battlefield of the national political axe. However, we still have more confidence in Comrade Han Yunhua, whose military command ability has been tested over a long period of time, and I don't think he will make such a mentally retarded mistake. However, I am still very worried, after all, our Commander Han is only twenty-six years old, and young people are easily carried away by momentary victories. Let's sum it up and see if there is a viable surname for this battle plan. ”
As far as the military point of view is concerned, this battle plan is indeed very unsatisfactory, and there are many uncontrollable situations in it, as far as the battle plan of the southern Hebei side is concerned, Comrade Han Yunhua is very sure that Shi Yousan has committed treason and defected to the enemy, and has decided to regard Shi Yousan and the army as the current great enemy. Although Shi Yousan is a two-faced person, and our intelligence department has indeed received some news of Shi Yousan's secret contacts with the Yue Army, but after all, these are some unfounded rumors, and they are not accurate, so Comrade Han Yunhua's battle plan is almost entirely centered on the possible situation after Shi Yousan defects to the enemy and treason, and if Shi Yousan does not defect to the enemy and treason, then it will be difficult for his battle plan to be implemented. However, Comrade Han Yunhua likes to take risks and is good at taking risks, everyone knows very well, since he dares to be sure that Shi Yousan wants to surrender to the enemy, then it means that Shi Yousan's ass is definitely not clean, and it is true that Shi Yousan has ten chances of defecting to the enemy. In any case, we should still affirm Comrade Han Yunhua's ability, and as for his operational plan, we still agree with him to implement it, but the party Central Committee and the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army must make an emergency plan, and once the situation in the north of the country changes, they will immediately send a large army north to support the operation. Mr. Zhu is a standard military strategist, and he analyzed the loopholes and shortcomings of the battle plan from a military point of view, but based on his consistent trust in Han Yunhua, Mr. Zhu still decided not to tie Han Yunhua's hands and feet and support him in carrying out the North China General Battle.
Vice Chairman Zhou thought for a while and said: "The boss's analysis is very reasonable, and he agrees with him to implement this military plan, but everything depends on him and the entire Inner Mongolia Military Region to do it himself, and the Party Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters will not and cannot give him much support." What we have to do is to always pay close attention to the war in Saibei and do a good job in dealing with the aftermath; it is good to win, but if the plan fails, it should not be much difficult to gain a firm foothold and keep the base area with Comrade Han Yunhua's ability. I just don't know how many troops there are in the Inner Mongolia Military Region now, Comrade Han Yunhua is very good in all aspects, it is this comrade who likes to play deep, and always likes to hide his own strength, so far how many troops are there in the Inner Mongolia Military Region, whether the weapons and ammunition of the troops are complete, whether the food and clothing reserves are sufficient, etc., we people are all blind and don't know anything, this kind of request for instructions is not of great significance, but it seems to inform us that these leading comrades are going to make a move again, hehehe! In the end, Vice Chairman Zhou himself couldn't help but laugh.
The others also laughed, and when the small cave was quiet again, the chairman got up and said: "Comrade Han Yunhua, we can't judge with common sense, the situation in the Inner Mongolia Military Region is very complicated, and any of our Eighth Route Army troops are complicated. We all know that the Inner Mongolia Military Region was established by Comrade Han Yunhua, and that the more than 100,000 elite troops were also pulled up by Comrade Han Yunhua himself. However, everyone knows the situation in northern Cyprus, the entire two provinces together have a population of only a few million, and most of them are old and weak and ethnic minorities who live a nomadic life, and it is not easy to gain a firm foothold in such an area, and it will not work without special methods. Comrade Han Yunhua also has his own special method, and his special method is to treat everyone equally. Whether it was the Kuomintang rout and the prisoners or the Han annihilation of the puppet army, as long as he sincerely resisted and saved the country, he dared to accept it, and he dared to entrust him with heavy tasks. As far as I know, a considerable number of military cadres at and above the brigade level in the Inner Mongolia Military Region are former Kuomintang officers, so we should expect the composition of the Inner Mongolia Military Region to be complicated. What Comrade Enlai said is very reasonable, we can pay attention to the war in Saibei, and we should help, but that will be said when Comrade Han Yunhua needs it. ”
The chairman was reasonable, although Comrade Han Yunhua was a little impatient, his vision was still very poisonous and accurate. Although the reaction to the battle plan was different every time it was presented to us, the results often surprised us. So we can also come to the conclusion that a good child is not necessarily a good soldier, and some of our cadres can lead the army into a model army that abides by the law, but few of them can create a lion who wins a hundred battles in a short period of time. Therefore, when we train military cadres in the future, we should not excessively demand those things that are in a certain way, because this will easily restrict their performance. Comrade Han Yunhua's upbringing has taught us a very vivid lesson, and the fact that an ordinary little soldier of the Red Army can raise a unit of more than 100,000 people in just a few years is by no means a miracle that can be explained, so in the military aspect, I think it is still necessary to fully affirm and solicit the opinions and suggestions of front-line commanders, so that they can let go of their hands and feet, and the sky will not fall. Comrade Bi Shi, who has never spoken much, opened his mouth rarely.
Ren Bishi's words seem to have entered the hearts of the chairman and others, and Han Yunhua's growth experience has indeed inspired them as old revolutionaries, and the current Han Yunhua is definitely not as simple as a combat hero. Half of the combat strength of the Eighth Route Army of Han Yunhua's top, although the evaluation of General Terauchi Shouichi, the former commander of the North China Front Army, is biased, it also confirms Han Yunhua's tremendous influence from the side.
The benefits that Han Yunhua brought to the party and the people were indeed real, so many elite troops were replenished into other units of the Eighth Route Army, and so many sophisticated weapons were transported to various military regions, divisions and brigades. Moreover, the military and political cadres of the Inner Mongolia Military Region, especially the military and political cadres personally trained by Han Yunhua, are definitely elites who can be entrusted with important tasks and take charge of their own affairs wherever they go, and the operational concepts and management methods of the Inner Mongolia Military Region have also been brought to other units of the Eighth Route Army by these middle and senior officers of the former Inner Mongolia Military Region, greatly enhancing the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army.
Therefore, although Han Yunhua himself is not clear about his own role, the importance of [***] and others to him is increasing. This time, after discussing the situation in Saibei, the chairman and others decided to urgently transfer Han Yunhua to the overall situation of the north, and in their hearts, they believed in Han Yunhua's strength.
Although the discussion in Yan'an lasted only a little more than an hour, the impact was enormous. Soon Han Yunhua received a call back from Yan'an, the message was very short, only a few words: "All the calls are incoming, and the plan will be implemented" The payment was made by the Central Military Commission of China.
After receiving the reply from the party Central Committee, Han Yunhua was overjoyed, and he did not care about going back to visit his wife, who had been pregnant for more than half a year, and Xiao Sihan, who was more than a year old, and immediately ordered the troops to act according to the plan, and at the same time he moved his supreme headquarters forward to Xinghe County.
Daqingshan, the headquarters of the former Han Yunhua department, Daqingshan at this time is the most beautiful season of the year. At the foot of the mountain, a large pine forest and poplar forests unique to the north make the whole Daqing Mountain lush and green.
Han Yunhua returned to Daqingshan again, as the place where he started, Han Yunhua still has a lot of feelings for Daqingshan. Although with the establishment of the Inner Mongolia Military Region and the recovery of large cities such as Guisui, Baotou, Jining, and Chengde, the focus of Han Yunhua's work gradually shifted westward, and the important surnames of Daqingshan also declined greatly.
Han Yunhua himself has not been to Daqingshan for a year and a half, but this time the relocation of the headquarters to Daqingshan is also a deliberate consideration by Han Yunhua. First of all, the geographical location of Daqingshan is very important, and secondly, the terrain conditions are typical easy to defend and difficult to attack, as a mountainous area, it is not suitable for the airborne landing of paratroopers, so it also puts an end to the surprise attack of the paratroopers. The most important thing is that the special combat unit of the Yue Army has also been trained and has gone through many actual battles, and although it rarely fights with the special combat team under Han Yunhua, the strength of the special combat team of the Yue Army should not be underestimated. In the battle some time ago, Han Yunhua's special combat team secretly shot and killed several members of the special combat team of the Yue Army, and after analyzing and identifying Han Yunhua, the identity of the special combat unit of the Yue Army was finally determined. According to the weapons and equipment on the special combat personnel of the Yue Army, Han Yunhua seems to have seen a real special forces. Non-reflective painted steel helmets, full-body armor on the upper body, American Gade submachine guns, and melon-style grenades all show the strength of the special combat team of the Japanese army. Therefore, guarding against the special combat team of the Yue army is also an issue that should be considered when fighting against the army, and the Daqingshan fortifications are complete, especially the light and dark forts are reasonably arranged, as long as the defense is well organized, no matter how many people come to the army, they will not want to hurt a cadre of the Inner Mongolia Military Region. At the same time, after the headquarters was moved forward, Han Yunhua could learn the progress of the battle on the front line more quickly, and it was more convenient for him to command the troops to fight, so Han Yunhua ignored the opposition of several other military region leaders and placed the headquarters within the bombing range of the army and air force.
