Liu Yimin lost his temper with Huang Wenhu, thought about it, and knew that Wu Zheng and Yang Zhicheng came to the division headquarters to find him, it must be a matter of military industry, and the political commissar couldn't handle it, so he asked Huang Wenhu to call Wu Zheng and Yang Zhicheng over.

After a while, Wu Zheng and Yang Zhicheng's reports sounded outside the door.

After Liu Yimin let the two people in, Wu Zheng only cared about shaking hands with Liu Yimin. Yang Zhicheng swept his eyes around and looked at the layout of Liu Yimin's office.

On the front wall is hung the portrait of [***] and Mr. Zhu, and a pair of words are hung under the portrait, which reads "firm and correct political direction, flexible strategy and tactics". Looking at the strength of the pen, one stroke at a time is like a knife chopping an axe and chisel, Yang Zhicheng knows that it was written by Liu Yimin himself. The walls on both sides are covered with maps, which are basically maps of the situation of friends and enemies, including various base areas in Shandong, central and southern Hebei, and Shanxi base areas. The strangest thing is that there is also a situation map of the enemy and the enemy in the northeast and a situation map of the enemy and the area of confrontation with the Japanese army. Looking at the color change of the red and blue arrows above, it must be that the staff office comes to mark it in time every day.

The desk is a drawer table, the chair is a wooden circle chair, and the paint on the table and chair is peeling off very much, and it looks a little old.

There are a few pots of flowers on the windowsill, and they are all ordinary Ma Lanhua, green and shining, and they look pleasant.

The walls on both sides of the windowsill were full of guns, including sniper rifles with scopes, Bayi automatic rifles, submachine guns that Yang Zhicheng likes to call flower organs, 38 big covers, and mid-range pistols equipped by a battalion and a company of guards, as well as pistols of various colors. Looking at the bright and shiny appearance of the gun body, Yang Zhicheng knew that each gun was full of bullets, as long as Liu Yimin, who was sitting at the desk, stretched out his hand, he could take off the nearest Bayi automatic rifle or submachine gun, quickly load and fire. If anyone wants to be unfavorable to Liu Yimin, even if he is lucky enough to break through the cordon of the guard regiment, it is absolutely impossible to escape Liu Yimin's magical marksmanship.

After Yang Zhicheng looked at the layout of Liu Yimin's office, he found that Liu Yimin and Wu Zheng were standing on the side and looking at him quietly.

Yang Zhicheng's brain was excited, but in front of him was the secretary of the [***] Shandong Bureau, the commander of the Shandong Military Region, and the instructor and division commander, who was the supreme leader of our party and our army in Shandong.

Yang Zhicheng hurriedly put his feet together, looked directly at Liu Yimin with both eyes, and saluted and reported again: "Report commander, Yang Zhicheng, political commissar of the logistics command, report to you, please instruct!" ”

After Liu Yimin raised his hand to return the salute, he smiled and said, "Okay, you fortune teller, come to my office and look around, can't you see something good?" ”

Yang Zhicheng smiled: "Commander, this is what you said, don't regret it!" ”

Liu Yimin glanced at his office and said, "Say, what do you like?" ”

Yang Zhicheng immediately saluted again: "Commander, can you give me that letter?" Firm and correct political direction, flexible strategy and tactics, I remember this is an inscription from [***] to Kang Da, and you wrote it, I think it is particularly suitable for me to study. ”

Liu Yimin didn't say a word, went up and took down the words, rolled the scroll, found a small string to tie it, handed it to Yang Zhicheng and said: "Comrade Yang Zhicheng, these two sentences are the pointers of our army, and they are also the magic weapon for us to defeat the enemy. You are a veteran Red Army cadre who has experienced a hundred battles, and I don't need to tell you the truth. Let's encourage together! ”

After speaking, without waiting for Yang Zhicheng to answer, Liu Yimin directly said to Wu Zheng and Yang Zhicheng: "Say, what's the matter with me?" ”

Wu Zheng immediately reported on the difficulties encountered in the process of increasing the firing range of the bazooka and copying the Gaoping dual-purpose gun. As soon as Liu Yimin heard this, he knew that Wu Zheng didn't say that he understood these technology research and development work very well, but he couldn't say it clearly, and after thinking about it, he said: "You go back and tell Bill that these two tasks can be put aside for a while, and the top priority at the moment is to step up the production of rockets, artillery shells, and bullets, and in any case, let each artillery regiment carry one base for itself, carry two base numbers for baggage transportation, and store two base numbers to ensure the supply of ammunition." The little devils have already begun to launch the Battle of Wuhan, and the main forces of our army may enter the battle at any time. When you go back, you have to remobilize, and no matter what is difficult, you have to make sure that you complete the task. ”

Wu Zheng and Yang Zhicheng are both in charge of logistics, especially Wu Zheng, since joining the Red Eighteenth Regiment, he knows that Liu Yimin has always captured large numbers and suffered small casualties in battles. As long as the main force moves, it will inevitably be guns, cannons, money, food, and a lot of seizures. After hearing Liu Yimin say that the main force could be put into battle at any time, he immediately began to calculate the current logistics reserves.

Liu Yimin said with a smile: "Don't forget it, I know that our army's ammunition reserves are no problem for two more battles." But what if we fight continuously? Besides, we have not yet completed the task of equipping the 115th Division, the 129th Division, and the Reading Division with artillery regiments. Now there are cannons, but there are not enough shells, so how can it be done? Chief of Staff Zeng fought very hard, the troops suffered heavy casualties, and the ammunition was consumed, and it was in urgent need of replenishment. All of this depends on you getting a good grasp of production. The first step is to get the reloading of ammunition right, so that the cannon can't go hungry. The second step is the production of ammunition. In particular, artillery shells, rockets, and 1 August automatic rifles, 1 August machine guns, and submachine guns should be mobilized to produce at full capacity. Tell Bill that if there are conditions, we can first produce some of the current bazooka and Bayi automatic rifles, these things are ready-made technology, and they are also the nemesis of the army, and the soldiers especially like it. ”

Yang Zhicheng blinked his eyes, and his tone was full of joy: "Commander, do you mean that there is another big battle?" Tell me to say, if you want to fight, you will fight hard, first kill the devils on Jiaoji Road, and let the east of Jinpu Road become a piece. Then it depends on the situation to hit the devils of Jinpu Road or Xuzhou. You can rest assured that the logistics headquarters will start now, not only to ensure the supply of ammunition, but also to immediately organize the villagers to make military shoes and flatbread for the troops, and to organize stretcher teams and ammunition teams. Leaders must not be left to worry about logistics. ”

Liu Yimin laughed, and patted Yang Zhicheng: "Okay, what I want to listen to is what you say." After you go back, mobilize immediately, and I will tell the political commissar and Director Cai, and ask them to coordinate with Guo Hongtao, Li Yu, and the Engineer Command to formulate a thorough plan. It is already September, so we should make statistics on the military uniforms of the troops and see how many cotton military uniforms are needed, and we must arrange them as soon as possible. In addition, the transportation in this Yimeng Mountain is inconvenient, and in some places bridges should be built, roads and roads should be built, and our army has many tanks and automobiles, and there are many war horses and carts, so it is necessary to ensure that the troops can be quickly and covertly transported. However, these tasks must be kept secret, and they must be done at night, so that the little devils cannot smell the wind. This battle must be a big fight, but we need to seize the timing. When the time comes, we will work coldly. When the time comes, haha, we will fight like a tiger and a rabbit, and we will eat the puppet army without even bones left. ”

All three laughed.

After laughing, Liu Yimin led Wu Zheng and Yang Zhicheng to Luo Ronghuan's office, and called Cai Zhong, Guo Hongtao, and Li Yu, and explained the logistics work he just said, and instructed Guo Hongtao to take the lead, and Cai Zhong assisted to organize the implementation.

Li Yu has been busy recently, but he has also been busy with results, holding a training course for financial and taxation cadres and establishing Beihai Bank. Liu Yimin proposed that Ling Kun, political commissar of the field hospital and director of the Teaching Instructor Education Committee, be the president, and Chen Wenqi, a veteran party member who was introduced to the party by Comrade Deng Enming in 1925, should be the vice president.

Seeing that Liu Yimin was called to arrange the logistics work, Li Yu wanted to take the opportunity to report on the political axe work. As a result, Liu Yimin said that he had to think about the problem today, and he had no time, so he had something to report directly to the political commissar. In two days, he will take time to check the work.

Guo Hongtao and Cai Zhong themselves also had a lot of things to say, and when they saw Liu Yimin, they rejected Li Yu, knowing that he might indeed have something, opened their mouths and swallowed back what they wanted to say.

After sending Wu Zheng and Yang Zhicheng away, Liu Yimin fell into deep thought again.

Now if you want to let Xiao Yueben lose in the battle of Wuhan, it is basically not very likely. It is said that the mobilization system is complete, that troops can be continuously organized to supplement the front-line troops, and that it has superiority in the sea and air; if this kind of large-scale battle with the goal of defending key points is fought to the death, the army will naturally have the advantage in firepower. Historically, the Fujinshan battlefield defended by [***] was the same as Luodian in the Songhu Campaign, which became a meat grinder.

What if your own mentor joins the battlefield? Liu Yimin shook his head after thinking for a while. The most important thing in teaching the instructor to fight is to attack the enemy unprepared. If the main force of the instructor is exposed to the guns of the little devil's heavy army group, the little devils will definitely be desperate to surround on all sides, and aircraft, warships, tanks, and artillery will go into battle together, and then Chiang Kai-shek will sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, then I am afraid it will be over.

Of course, there is a situation that can be considered, that is, when the battle of Wuhan is at its most critical, the instructor will launch a thunderous blow, or make a move in Shandong, or break through the Longhai Road to the south, and go to the Yangtze River to cut off the supply line of the little devils, so that the devils will be in chaos.

The situation in front of him was very clear, and the army thought that the main force of the instructor had gone to the battlefield in Wuhan, and began to go all out to launch the Battle of Wuhan, wanting to eliminate the main force of the [***] team in one fell swoop. However, the main force of the instructor is hidden in Shandong, and he can launch a thunderous blow against the army anytime and anywhere. This blow must be steady, accurate and ruthless, and the little ones who want to hit it will hurt to the bone marrow, so that they can no longer launch a strategic attack, and they will honestly begin to sit down and strategically hold on to our army.

As for the exact timing of the thunderous strike, Liu Yimin knew it in his heart. At the critical moment of the decisive battle of Wuhan, the army sent troops south to launch the Guangzhou Campaign, which caught the national political axe by surprise. This was proposed by Tada Jun in the history of military warfare, and it was called "the winner and loser". What Liu Yimin wants is at this time, when Xiao Yueben can see Wuhan and Guangzhou. Even if the little devil recklessly occupies Wuhan and Guangzhou, it will soon face the problem of how to withdraw its troops back to rescue Shandong or the Yangtze River supply line. When the time comes, the battlefield will be in full swing, and it will be lively.

In a word, you hit yours, I hit mine. You go to occupy Wuhan and Guangzhou, and I will cut off your back road, destroy your living force, and see who can have the last laugh.

After calculating the time, Liu Yimin estimated that Xiao Yueben's Wuhan strategy battle would not be fought in a few months. In the historical Battle of Wuhan, Xiao Yue began to capture Anqing in June, kicked off, and fought for five months. Now the army is strong, but the strength is not bad, and this battle will really have to be fought for several months. There are a few months of time, which is enough to store ammunition and train the troops.

After thinking about the overall situation of our army again, Liu Yimin felt that although the little devils on the Shanxi battlefield had completed the replenishment and increased the number of troops, our army currently had the advantage in the Shanxi battlefield, and most of the base areas of the 115th Division, 120th Division, 129th Division, and Reading Division had been restored after this period of struggle. The central government not only dispatched troops to the northeast to support the Anti-Japanese Federation, but also organized forces to launch a major uprising in eastern Hebei.

Thinking of the riots in eastern Hebei, Liu Yimin's eyes saw the spectacular scene of 200,000 people in various counties in eastern Hebei raising the banner of righteousness and raising fires to the sky, and he remembered Li Yunchang and Yao Yilin, who returned to Tianjin. Thinking about the situation in history when the eastern Hebei uprising troops suffered heavy losses in the end, Liu Yimin felt that he lacked skills, and it would be good if he could let the instructor send a brigade to the eastern Hebei to reorganize and train these uprising troops. After thinking about it, Liu Yimin felt that he should first do a good job in the immediate work, and then make suggestions to the central authorities to strengthen the rectification and training of troops in eastern Hebei.

With a certain thought, Liu Yimin stopped sitting and directly drafted instructions to the brigades.

In the telegram, Liu Yimin wrote: "Since the launch of the Cold Gun and Cold Artillery Campaign, all units have taken the initiative to attack and achieved certain results. But these results are far from enough. Now, the main force of the Yue army is launching the Battle of Wuhan, and on both sides of the Yangtze River, at the foot of the Dabie Mountain, and in the East Henan Plain, our army is fighting to the death with the Yue Kou. As the instructor of the Eighth Route Army, who has been given infinite expectations by the people of the whole country, he will never stand idly by in this general battle, and will do his best to support the Wuhan battlefield and the Central Plains battlefield. In particular, the 2nd Brigade of the Luxi Sect, the 7th Brigade of the Jiaodong Sect, the Tai'an Detachment, and the Southeastern Lu Detachment should lay down the main force, disguise the local troops and militia, and go to the side of the highway and the railway, so as to create a situation in which there are eight roads everywhere and militia everywhere, and force the devils in the strongholds to keep asking for help, and the devils on the communication lines also keep asking for help, so as to contain the North China Army and not be able to draw troops to support the Wuhan Battlefield and the Central Plains Battlefield. 2. In the course of carrying out the cold-gun and cold-artillery campaign, the above-mentioned units should dispatch capable personnel and form armed task forces to go deep into the enemy's theater of operations, mobilize the masses, restore and build political power at the grassroots level, organize and train militias, and carry out guerrilla warfare, mine warfare, and tunnel warfare behind enemy lines. Special attention should be paid to dividing and dissolving the puppet army, and this matter should be regarded as an important task. 3. The above-mentioned units should be closely integrated with the local political axes and expand their troops. The expanded recruits will be trained by the brigades for the time being, and when the situation further improves, they will be sent to the training headquarters for intensive training. Fourth, the main forces of the division assembled in the mountainous areas of southeastern Shandong and Taiyi, in addition to sending small units to carry out cold guns and cold artillery campaigns in turn, the main forces should hurry up to rest and replenish, store ammunition and materials, actively carry out the autumn harvest, and wait for further orders. ”

After writing it, Liu Yimin called the staff officer and asked him to immediately take it to the political commissar for reading and signing, and send it to all units as soon as possible.

At lunchtime, the chairman sent a telegram asking Liu and Luo to report in detail on the recovery of the base areas in Shandong, and at the same time to inquire about the composition and combat situation of the troops remaining in northern Jiangsu.

After Liu Yimin discussed with Luo Ronghuan and Cai Zhong, he drafted a telegram to the chairman. In addition to reporting on the above-mentioned situation, Liu Yimin suggested to the chairman: First, the main force of the New Fourth Army should advance eastward into the Soviet Union and Central China for development, and the situation in southern Anhui is complicated, which is not conducive to the development of our army. Second, the eastern Hebei uprising troops are new troops, lacking backbone troops and backbone cadres, so they should immediately send backbone troops to eastern Hebei to organize and integrate the eastern Hebei troops. Or immediately start to transfer the eastern Hebei troops to the Jin-Cha-Ji for training, and leave a part of the troops to persist in the struggle in eastern Hebei. Considering the large number of personnel in the eastern Hebei uprising troops, which would be lost on a large scale during the transfer, it is best to reorganize and train in eastern Hebei to avoid possible heavy losses. Third, the troops entering the northeast should get in touch with the Anti-Japanese Federation. The Northeast has been occupied by the Chinese army for a long time, the Kwantung Army and the puppet Manchurian Defense Army are strong, and the policies implemented by the Chinese army are not conducive to our army's mobilization of the people, and it is difficult to resist the United Nations in supply. Now that the weather is getting colder, can the backbone of the anti-United Nations troops temporarily retreat south to preserve their strength? Fourth, the Battle of Wuhan has begun, and the main force of our army in Shandong is waiting for the opportunity. The rest of the units in Luxi, Jilubian, Southwest Luxi, Taixi, and Jiaodong are extensively carrying out the cold gun and cold artillery campaign. Once the time is ripe, we are confident that there will be a gratifying situation in Shandong. In principle, you fight yours and I fight mine, and if the army wants to fight the battle of Wuhan, our army will fight with the enemy in Shandong, and the army in North China will not be able to increase troops to the Wuhan battlefield.

After the telegram was sent, the chairman quickly replied, and there were three main points: First, all the suggestions put forward were good, especially the strategic decision that you hit yours and I hit me is good. The problem of eastern Hebei was solved by the 115th Division, and the current task of the instructor was to restore the base area in Shandong and take into account northern Jiangsu. Second, it is necessary to pay close attention to the situation on the battlefield in eastern Henan, judging from Chiang Kai-shek's deployment, the loss of Kaifeng is just around the corner, and Zhengzhou is also very dangerous. But the army must not be allowed to march west to attack Luoyang. Once the Yue army attacked Zhengzhou, the main force of the instructor must attack and resolutely pull the main force of the Yue army back to eastern Henan, and neither let it go west, nor let it go south to join the Wuhan battlefield. Third, some time ago, Shandong had very good experience in the construction of the base area, and this is evident from the fact that there were no large numbers of Han annihilators and puppet armies after the army was over. The Shandong Bureau should sum up its experience and strengthen the construction of base areas. At the same time, it is necessary to start work as soon as possible, reserve food, clothing, and other wintering materials to ensure that the main force will not be affected in combat.

At the end of the telegram, the chairman revealed that the Central Committee plans to convene the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee in the near future.

After reading the telegram, Liu Yimin thought for a while, and then remembered that the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee in history was held in late September, when the Battle of Wuhan was basically coming to an end, and because Wang Jiaxiang brought back the instructions of the Comintern, the leadership position of [***] was established at the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee. Now that the Battle of Wuhan has just begun, the chairman's position itself is also very consolidated, and because of his constant blowing of the wind of reading power and autonomy over the years, the ideology within the party should be relatively unified, Wang Ming's face was clearly recognized by the Red Army soldiers as early as the Long March, and the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee should be pushed back, why is it that the meeting is being held again at this time? Will Wang Ming still toss like in history?

Thinking about it again, Wang Ming can send a telegram to write his own check, what else is there he dare not do?

It seems that I have been away from Xi'an for too long, and I don't know some things.
