What Liu Yimin didn't expect was that Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong had not yet come up with a plan for the reorganization and expansion of the troops, and the telegram from the "Chief" arrived first.

The telegram he sent to Liu and Luo was very clear: "Calm down, immerse yourself in restoring the base areas, restore the combat effectiveness of the troops, and make use of Shandong's abundant military resources to develop the armed forces." On the basis of the existing main forces, it will take one to two years to develop the main force of the field army to 300,000 and the local armed forces to more than 200,000, so as to achieve the goal of Liu Yimin's report to the Central Committee before advancing eastward into Shandong. In order to accomplish this goal, in addition to the central and southern parts of Shandong, Luxi, southwestern Shandong, and Jiaodong should all send effective troops and effective commanders to take command and repeatedly contend with the enemy until they become truly consolidated base areas. The most urgent task at the moment is to launch an offensive operation on the Jiaoji Road, Jinpu Road, and Longhai Road after the main force has completed its rest and replenishment, and mobilize the Japanese puppet army in Luxi, Southwestern Lu, Hebei, Hebei, Hebei, and Jiaodong, so as to create conditions for our army to restore its base areas in the above-mentioned areas. ”

The telegram from the chairman's seat also involved personnel issues, proposing that Zhu Rui, Tan Zheng, and Xu Guangda be transferred back to Xi'an to strengthen the garrison work in Shaanxi, and that a group of cadres such as Guo Hongtao should be transferred back to Xi'an to attend the party school study. In consideration of Zeng Zhongsheng's martyrdom, the chief asked Liu and Luo to adjust Chen Shiqu's work and send leaders of the Southwest Lu Garrison Brigade so that Chen Shiqu could perform his duties as deputy chief of staff of the Shandong Military Region and assist Liu and Luo in commanding operations.

On the issue of the selection of chief of staff of the Shandong Military Region, Liu Yimin is actually thinking about it.

Historically, after the Central Committee made it clear that Luo Ronghuan was in charge of Shandong, Zhu Rui and Chen Guang were transferred away and Chen Shiqu was sent to serve as the chief of staff of the 1st Division.

At that time, the reason why the Central Committee transferred Zhu Rui was to unify the party, government, and military leaders in Shandong. Transferring Chen Guang also has this meaning, but at the same time, Chen Guang also has a personal problem, that is, the problem of Chen Guang breaking through first in the battle of Lufang. At that time, Luo Ronghuan was not in the army, and was commanded by Chen Guang, and the final result of the battle was very good, showing the prestige of our army. It is a pity that Chen Guang, the acting commander of the 115th Division, did not break through with the main force of the 686th Regiment when he retreated after organizing the troops to fight, but led the cavalry company to break through the siege alone. Later, Luo Ronghuan seriously criticized Chen Guang for this. Chen Guang was extremely depressed for a period of time, but it was Luo Ronghuan who did work for him and the troops to maintain Chen Guang's prestige. It may also be from this incident that Chen Guang's status in the hearts of the army and ** has declined. Later, the "Lord" seat naturally chose Luo Ronghuan to govern Shandong instead of Chen Guang, the acting commander of the 115th Division. It turns out that the choice of the Main seat is correct. Of course, Chen Guang's later tragedy is deplorable.

Chen Shiqu was the Jinggangshan who followed the Lord after the Autumn Harvest Uprising, and served as the chief of staff of the division during the Red Army.

Historically, after he served as the chief of staff of the 115th Division, he has been fighting in Shandong and East China, and has successively served as the chief of staff of the New Fourth Army and the chief of staff of the Shandong Military Region, the chief of staff of Huaye, the chief of staff of Sanye, and the commander of the Chen Tang Corps.

In terms of qualifications, Zhu Rui, Yuan Guoping, Xu Guangda, and Cheng Cuilin are all more qualified than Chen Shiqu.

Liu Yimin's favorite candidate for chief of staff was Liu Jianli, the commander of the Second Brigade, who was the old chief of staff of the Red Eighteenth Regiment and the Central Guard Division. However, after thinking about it, I felt that the current brigade commanders of the main brigades such as Gao Yuan and Liu Jianli could not move, and the troops were about to be expanded, and they all had to be division commanders. It is more appropriate to choose one of the four people, Zhu Rui, Yuan Guoping, Xu Guangda, and Cheng Cuilin. Among these four people, Zhu Rui, Yuan Guoping, and Xu Guangda are all famous generals of our army who went to Moscow to study during the Red Army. Cheng Cuilin is also not ambiguous, Hongbi was born as a political commissar, after going north to resist Japan, he served as the political commissar of the First Brigade and the political commissar of the Second Brigade, at this time he was the deputy director of the Political Department of the Shandong Military Region, the political commissar of the First Brigade and the commander and political commissar of the new First Brigade, and it is very appropriate to be promoted to the chief of staff of the Shandong Military Region at this time. Moreover, these four people are now basically used according to the deputy leadership of the Shandong Military Region. Among them, Zhu Rui is also a member of the Standing Committee of the Shandong Bureau.

As soon as the telegram was issued, there was no need to consider the issue of Zhu Rui and Xu Guangda, and the main seat transferred Zhu Rui, Tan Zheng, and Xu Guangda back to Shaanxi, saying very clearly that it was necessary to strengthen the garrison in Shaanxi. When these three people go back, they will be one headquarters, and the commander, political commissar, and chief of staff will all have them, and they may even have two headquarters. It seems that the main seat was angered by Chiang Kai-shek's attack on Shaanxi, and perhaps part of the troops leading by Mr. Peng to reinforce Shaanxi would stay in Shaanxi and be organized separately and handed over to the command of these three people.

Liu Yimin originally envisaged that when the troops were reorganized, even if Zhu Rui and Xu Guangda could not be the chiefs of staff, they would have to let the two of them be the commanders of the main division and take charge of themselves. Now that the telegram from the Lord's seat has arrived, the plan has been disrupted.

There is another problem, Chen Shiqu is doing a very good job in southwest Lu, Liu Yimin admires him very much, and he is in charge of southwest Lu, Liu Yimin can rest assured. Liu Yimin's original plan for expanding the army was to ask Chen Shiqu to be the commander of the Southwest Lu Military Region, and if he was transferred back now, he would immediately have to send people to Southwest Lu again.

During the war years, the issue of cadres was also very complicated. It is possible that the chairman took these factors into account before he said in the telegram that Chen Shiqu should perform the duties of deputy chief of staff of the Shandong Military Region, instead of being directly appointed chief of staff.

Zeng Zhongsheng, it really shouldn't be sacrificed!

After reading the telegram of instructions from the Lord, Luo Ronghuan said! "Commander, the Commander's request is the same as ours, that is, to bury oneself in the restoration of the base areas and the expansion of the army. It seems that we need to come up with an expansion plan quickly. It's too late to be passive. ”

Liu Yimin said: "Political commissar, now we have to consider a problem. After Chen Shiqu was transferred back to the military region, who would he send to southwest Lu? ”

Luo Ronghuan is also making trouble about this matter, he knows that the elite of our army in Shandong must be highly concentrated, and the task undertaken by various local military districts in the future is guerrilla warfare, and the environment is relatively even worse. Chen Shiqu has been in southwest Lu for a long time, is familiar with the customs and geography, and has a certain prestige in southwest Lu, so he rashly transferred away and went to a new hand, at least there is a familiar process, and if he doesn't do it, he will suffer losses.

Luo Ronghuan said decisively: "Call back to the [Lord] seat, Chen Shiqu will not be transferred for the time being." Changes will be made after the plan for the expansion of the troops is determined and the reorganization is generally completed. At present, Southwest Lu is inseparable from Chen Shiqu. For the time being, Liu, Luo, and Cai will undertake the work within the scope of the chief of staff's duties. ”

As soon as Liu Yimin heard Luo Ronghuan's words, he knew that he was thinking too much, and the political commissar was simpler than he thought. It seems that it is superfluous to think so much, and the cadres at this time are different from later generations, and they don't have so many ways in their hearts, they all pick up their backpacks and leave at the first order, regardless of what level or the like.

Liu Yimin pondered for a while, and said to Luo Ronghuan: "There is another article to be added to the call back to the [Lord] seat, can you let Chan Zheng, Zhu Rui, and Xu Guangda go back to Xi'an one less, and whether Comrade Hong Tao is considering not returning to Xi'an to study for the time being, Shandong is now a big stall and needs backbone cadres." It is suggested that Zhu Rui and Xu Guangda go back to one, and Guo Hongtao stayed. When the situation improved a little more, the Shandong Bureau specially dispatched cadres to study at the party school. ”

Luo Ronghuan disagreed with Liu Yimin's opinion, saying that Shandong is important, and Shaanxi is more important. If Shaanxi cannot be defended, the central government will have to be transferred again. Although Chiang Kai-shek temporarily retreated from Hanzhong and Shangluo, they occupied 11 north and Longnan, and could attack Xi'an again at any time, and the garrison in Shaanxi must be strengthened. In addition, the garrison division defended to the 11th north, Longnan, and Ankang, the security division defended in Shangluo and Tongguan, and Shaanxi had to defend to the north and the Yellow River.

What Luo Ronghuan said is reasonable.

Liu Yimin no longer insisted, and asked Luo Ronghuan to call back to the "Lord", and quickly formulated a reorganization plan to arrange for Guo Hongtao, Zhu Rui, Chan Zheng, and Xu Guangda to see them off.

On the twenty-third day of the lunar month, 1 small and large, the cadres who were transferred back to Shaanxi were concentrated in Yadian. Liu Yimin held a banquet in the headquarters to bid farewell to his fellow Lous.

Zhu Rui arrived in Shandong early, and he originally divided the work of local armed construction, and later concurrently served as the political commissar of the Fourth Brigade, the political commissar of the Luzhong Military Region, the secretary of the district party committee, and the commander and political commissar of the New Fourth Brigade. As soon as he left, the New Fourth Brigade would have no brigade commander and political commissar when it landed, and it would have to be reequipped.

Tan Zheng and Xu Guang arrived in Shandong for a short time, but as soon as they came to Shandong, they met a devil and swept dàng, who was responsible for the work of the Ludong Headquarters, and was also in charge. The departure of the two of them also made Liu Yimin feel that he was missing a right-hand man.

This farewell dinner was very dull.

Zhu Rui, Chan Zheng, Xu Guangda, Guo Hongtao, from the bottom of their hearts, no one is willing to go. There are so many little devils in Shandong, and a dozen is a big battle, who wants to miss it? However, military orders cannot be violated. Although Shaanxi is temporarily stable, no one can say whether the situation will continue to deteriorate in the future, and going back to defend the Shaanxi base area is also a supremely glorious task, and there is no room for bargaining.

At the toast, Luo Ronghuan said that Shaanxi was attacked by the Kuomintang, and the purpose of sending the comrades back was to strengthen and integrate the garrison forces in Shaanxi and guard our base camp. Shandong is reluctant to let the comrades go, the troops are reluctant to let the comrades go, and the comrades-in-arms are reluctant to let the comrades go. However, new posts are waiting for comrades, new tasks are waiting for comrades, and we can only bid farewell to everyone. I wish the comrades to make new contributions to the revolution in their new posts!

Liu Yimin said the truth, saying that Comrade Hong Tao and Comrade Zhu Rui had worked in Shandong for a longer time, and there were many opportunities for heart-to-heart talks with each other. Comrade Tan Zheng and Comrade Xu Guangda came late, and as soon as they came, they threw themselves into the battle, and rarely had the opportunity to talk together. Liu Yimin said: I am a person who has many shortcomings, such as being easy to be arbitrary when encountering fighter planes, and I often think about it before I bring it out, and I rarely communicate and discuss it with my comrades in advance. But it's all about fighting devils, for victory. In addition, he pays more attention to system building, and does not use the weapon of criticism and self-criticism well, which makes comrades prone to a misunderstanding, thinking that I, Liu Yimin, ignore criticism and self-criticism within the party, and are arrogant. Another example is that if I am not decisive in dealing with emotional issues, it is easy for comrades to think that I want to be polygamous. In fact, the situation is very complicated, and it is not as some comrades think.

I did divorce Tang Xingying and married Ni Hua. The Central Committee and the comrades are well aware of this matter. However, because of the concern for the two sons, it is inevitable that Tang Xingying's mother and son will not be concerned, and the violation of discipline cannot be eliminated. The reason is very simple, that is, I have a little sī heart in my heart, and I don't want my two sons to lose their mother. All in all, it is still their own party xìng impure and needs to be further exercised.

Liu Yimin regarded the farewell party as a meeting of the main life of the people, and carried out self-criticism. Everyone who listened was confused and didn't know what he was going to say.

Xu Guangda is a famous Red Army general who has been in battle for a long time, and what Liu Yimin said made him more and more confused the more he listened, and he opened his mouth and said: "Commander, we are leaving soon, why are you talking so much about review?" Could it be that I have not been resolute in carrying out your orders since I came to work in Shandong? I dare to say something, in my heart, you are the spirit of our army in Shandong, and Liu Yimin's name symbolizes victory. What kind of arbitrariness, dealing with emotional problems is muddy, it's all nonsense! As long as we can win battles and develop and grow, are these problems important? If you review it again, my old Xu will leave Shandong in tears. Don't you trust me? How can there be a non-stop review when the chief sends off his subordinates! Liu Yimin smiled and said: "Lao Xu, Comrade Xu Guangda, I will punish myself with a glass of wine." ”

After speaking, Liu Yimin picked up the wine glass and drank it all. After drinking, he continued: "It's not a review, I'm sincere with my comrades." To tell you the truth, I can't bear to let you go. I'm still thinking that when the troops are expanded, I will put a burden on you and let you go to the main force to stand alone! I think that in less than two years, our army in Shandong will form three to four field regiments, and each field regiment needs a general to take command. Alas, it's a pity, the plan can't catch up with the changes, Chiang Kai-shek disrupted our plan, everyone knows the situation in Shaanxi, the Kuomintang is eyeing the 800-mile Qin 11, the "Lord" is about to point to you! The mission is glorious! I can't help but cut my love. Besides, I, like you, have to obey the orders of the Central Committee. Let's say it first, if you can't hold Shaanxi after you go back, don't tell outsiders that you went out from the instructor, and don't say that I, Liu Yimin, once commanded you. I can't afford to lose that man! If you can't do it, just say it as soon as possible, I'll go back to Shaanxi and see which turtle son dares to fight Shaanxi's idea! When Zhu Rui heard this, he said: "Commander, I don't drink, but I broke my vow today, so I have to have a drink with you no matter what." After speaking, Zhu Rui poured himself full, lifted it up and touched Liu Yimin, raised his neck and drank it in one go.

Liu Yimin looked at Zhu Rui and couldn't figure out why he suddenly drank so refreshingly, so he could only pick it up and pour a full cup of sesame fragrance into his stomach.

Zhu Rui drank wine and wiped his mouth, and then said to Liu Yimin, Luo Ronghuan, and Cai Zhong: "Commander, political commissar, Director Cai, I can be regarded as a member of the Standing Committee of the Shandong Bureau and one of the main military cadres of the Shandong Military Region, right?" The commander asked me to go back to Shaanxi to guard the base area, and I can't lose the instructor's people, so it's not too much for me to ask for something, right? ”

Guo Hongtao immediately picked up: "Yes, Russia is also a member of the Standing Committee of the Shandong Bureau, before leaving, Commander Yan and the political commissar must give some gifts for Zhuang Xing!" ”

Liu Yimin put down the wine bowl, laughed, pointed to Zhu Rui and Guo Hongtao and said: "Okay, you old Zhu, old Guo, you don't know the family background in Shandong, the little devil has ruined the base like this, and there are really not many things that can be taken out." Say, what do you want? ”

Zhu Rui said: "I studied artillery, so I married a 12-barrel rocket launcher, with enough rockets for a base, and a rocket artillery squad. Guo Hongtao said: "After I return to Shaanxi, I will not necessarily engage in military work, and I will most likely be transferred to local work." I want machinery and equipment. The logistics base in Shaanxi was destroyed by the little devils, and many small factories did not exist. Commander, you gave me the equipment for a small machine shop so that I could build machines. Xu Guangda saw that these two people were opening their mouths to ask for things, for fear of suffering a loss, and then said: "Commander, I think our special operations team is very powerful, can you send me a special operations team?" Of these four people, only Zen Zheng was silent.

At the time of parting, Liu Yimin actually made a review, and it was a review of the few opinions put forward by Tan Zheng at the last meeting in Pingyi.

Tan Zheng felt bitter in his heart, he couldn't imagine that he didn't pay attention to the way he spoke at that time, and he actually left so many thoughts in the commander's heart. This is all going to be separated, and the commander is still reviewing it at the wine table. Zhu Rui, Guo Hongtao, and Xu Guangda didn't know, but Political Commissar Luo and Director Cai knew it in their hearts, and the commander wanted to make it clear to him again.

It's as if I, Tan Zheng, am dissatisfied with the commander!

Zhu Rui, Guo Hongtao, and Xu Guangda were elated when they wanted things and people, as if they had calculated that Liu Yimin would definitely give them, only Zen Zheng didn't say a word, and his face was gloomy.

As soon as Luo Ronghuan heard Liu Yimin's review, he knew that it was bad, and Chan Zheng must have thoughts in his heart. Sure enough, Tan Zheng, who has never drunk, is now drinking without saying a word, and if he doesn't dissuade him, he may get drunk.

Luo Ronghuan hurriedly said: "Zen planning political commissar, do you have any requirements?" ”

Tan Zheng said in a sullen voice: "I don't have that qualification!" ”

At this point, the scene suddenly became cold.

Liu Yimin wanted to repeat some problems again and give an explanation to the comrades, so that everyone would be at a loss and ignorant when they heard someone criticize him after leaving Shandong, and he didn't know how to deal with it, and at the same time, he also wanted the four of them to have an objective evaluation of Shandong's work when they reported on their work after they returned to Xi'an, but they didn't expect Tan Zheng to think of going somewhere else.

When Tan Zheng said this, Liu Yimin knew his mistake, and hurriedly stood up with a wine glass and walked to Tan Zheng's side and said: "Old Chan, we are comrades-in-arms who share life and death. I have just made a review, and I am sincere. I want my comrades to know that I also have shortcomings. After returning to Shaanxi, they asked about the work in Shandong, and everyone also had a relatively objective evaluation, and they would not only talk about the achievements and not the problems of Shandong's work. Come on, let's drink one for the two! ”

Dear book friends: There are only two days left until the end of the month, and I want a guaranteed monthly pass!。
