[Anti-Japanese Iron and Blood King] Chapter 82: Jining Polemic!

The Japanese were also very face-saving, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, anyway, they did not send planes to make trouble during the whole parade, so the whole parade ended successfully. After the military parade was over, the units returned to the city, and Ma Zheng returned to the city with the head of the headquarters and representatives of the divisions and brigades.

In Jining City, in the conference room of the Seventh Brigade of the Du, Mr. Zhu, Mr. Peng, Mr. He, Director Guan, Deputy Division Commander Chen, Deputy Director Deng, and the two leaders of the Duqi Brigade sat together and held a symposium.

At first, everyone didn't pay attention, but when everyone arrived, everyone realized that the specifications of this symposium were really a bit high. It seems that none of the people who came to participate were military and political personnel at the regimental level, at least they were all senior commanders at the level of deputy brigade commanders, and even Huang Bingyan, Chen Shangming, Wu Xiuda, Lu Ming, Wang Tao and others could not participate.

As soon as he entered the conference room, Mr. Peng, who was anxious, couldn't help but ask: "Ma Zheng, you bastard boy is really scared to death, where did you get so many troops and weapons." At least 4,000 people participated in the parade, and with the addition of those guards, I am afraid that there will be no less than 5,000 people, and your brigade will almost be able to catch up with more people from a division of the Kuomintang. ”

Division Commander He said with a smile: "The general infantry division of the Kuomintang is not as bold as his brigade, all of them have 38 big covers, crooked handles, 92 types, mortars, and even mountain artillery and field artillery, even the elite of the Kuomintang Central Army is not as good as the firepower configuration of the 7th Brigade, I really don't know how they did it." ”

Ma Zheng was a little embarrassed to be praised by these veterans and commanders who have left their names in history, and after sorting out his thoughts, he said: "Our weapons and ammunition are all obtained through seizure, not to mention the usual battles, let's take the battle of attacking the county seat as an example." We have attacked Fengzhen County three times, Jining and Shangdu counties twice, and Qianqi, Xinghe, Tianzhen, Yangyuan, and Zhuozi counties once. ”

"Most of our weapons were captured in these counties, and at the same time, the money and medicine needed by the troops were also obtained through battles, and in general, all war resources, even soldiers, we could capture from the enemy."

Commander Nie of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region said: "I can still understand that this weapon and ammunition depends on the capture, but the soldiers also rely on the capture of me, so I don't understand?" ”

Yun Jian replied: "Hehe, I'll answer this question." The thing is that among the more than 4,000 people who participated in the parade today, there were not many real Red Armymen, only one or two hundred, and the rest were either prisoners of bandits or prisoners of the Kuomintang, and finally became qualified soldiers of the Eighth Route Army after education and transformation. In addition, some were captured by the puppet army, and finally transformed into soldiers of the Eighth Route Army. ”

Mr. Zhu asked in a deep voice: "Ma Zheng, how do you solve the problem of loyalty of these people?" Aren't you afraid that they will betray the 7th Brigade and return to the Kuomintang troops and devils? ”

Ma Zheng said solemnly: "Then it depends on how we co-opt, the method of incorporation is different, and the result is naturally different!" ”

"Oh, is there any trick to it?" Mr. Zhu asked in surprise.

"Of course, there are a lot of doorways inside. The method we take to treat the Kuomintang officers and soldiers is different from the captured puppet army, whether we are officers or soldiers, as long as you are willing to join the Eighth Route Army, I will accept it. But in the puppet army, we only need soldiers, and the captured puppet army officers are all shot for treason, and all ordinary soldiers who have bloody crimes are executed, and those who have venereal diseases and smoke a lot of cigarettes are released enough to go back to their hometowns, and all soldiers must be disrupted and mixed with our original troops. ”

Then Ma Zheng continued: "As for the issue of loyalty, we don't need to be so cautious, compared to our taboo against the Kuomintang, the Kuomintang hates us even more, as long as there is sympathy or a tendency to join the Communist Party, they will all be dealt with as the crime of colluding with the Communist Party. Therefore, as long as they join the Eighth Route Army, then there will no longer be a good life with Lao Jiang, so we can rest assured that their loyalty is a problem. ”

"As for the puppet army, we don't have to worry too much, who wants to be scolded by traitors and traitors, as long as there is still a little shameless person, we have to give him a chance to atone for his sins. Through our observation, it is often these tainted soldiers who rush to the front in every battle, and they are also the most fearless of death. ”

Deputy Director Deng said: "Who came up with this method and how did it come up with it, I'm really curious." ”

Yun Jian smiled: "It was our brigade commander who came up with it, so let him answer this question himself, right?" ”

Ma Zheng replied: "Ladies and gentlemen, this war is of great importance to both China and Japan, and it is a life-and-death war related to the fortunes of the country, and a war of extermination between nations. No matter which country it is, victory will lead to prosperity and prosperity, and defeat will destroy the country and extinct the species. Therefore, this war will not be won or lost in a day or two, and this war will certainly be a protracted and protracted war. ”

"Since it is a protracted war, it is not about the gains and losses of a battle in one city and one place, but who has more war potential and who can better support the war to the end. As long as China supports this war for one second more than Japan, then China will be the victorious country, otherwise China's 5,000-year history will inevitably come to an abrupt end in our generation. Therefore, we must unite all the forces that can be united, and we must not lose our own strength for no reason. ”

"And the last fight in the war is manpower, so as long as you sincerely participate in us, you will not refuse. Therefore, whether it is the captured soldiers of the Kuomintang or the captured puppet army, in my eyes, they all have only one identity like us, that is, Chinese. ”

Ma Zheng's generous speech won the applause of the audience and lasted for a long time.

"Then Yunhua, do you think we can be the final winner in this war?" Mr. Peng asked again.

Ma Zheng said loudly: "I never thought that China's war of resistance would fail, from the moment the Japanese invaded China, the final decision on this war was no longer in the hands of our soldiers, and certainly not in the hands of the big landlords, warlords and bureaucrats headed by Chiang Kai-shek. ”

"In whose hands are not in the hands of these people?" Mr. Peng asked again.

"The hands of the people!"

"The people?"

"Yes, the final decision on this war has been transferred to the greatest number of people. Therefore, this war will also be a people's war in the ocean, and as long as the Japanese invaders are trapped in the vast ocean of our people, victory will definitely belong to us. ”

"How so?"

"Japan is such a big country, and the population is only so much, a small land! The reason why they were invincible and seemed invincible was because they were gambling with the foundation of more than 100 years since the Meiji Restoration, and their only chance of victory was to settle the battle in a short period of time, or force the Nationalist government to surrender or negotiate peace with them! ”

Then, Ma Zheng continued: "But now it seems that the war will not end in a short time, although the Battle of Songhu Nationalist Government fought very hard and suffered great losses, but they successfully dragged the Japanese army for more than three months, breaking the delusion that the Japanese army would destroy China in three months. Don't look at the little devils who are arrogant now, but their family background is so little, when this group of high-quality troops are all killed in battle, what will they use to make up for this shortfall? ”

Commander Nie nodded and said, "Yes, Ma Zheng is right, as long as all of us Chinese are united in resolutely resisting the war, it will inevitably cause a large reduction in the number of Japanese veterans, and the final gap will be filled by recruits, but there is a clear gap between the combat effectiveness and military quality of recruits and veterans." Therefore, if the war continues, the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army will certainly decline significantly, and the gap between us and the Japanese army will not be as big as it is now. ”

Ma Zheng added again: "In the long run, we will surely win, and the key to our victory is the broadest masses of the people, so this is what the people mean by grasping the initiative in the war." ”
