For He Zhengdao and many commanders and fighters of the independent column, when they first arrived here, they didn't seem to feel the atmosphere of the New Year. The reason is simple, many of them are alone.

It was precisely with this in mind that on the third day of the Lunar New Year, the officers of the division and brigade level of the column received a telegram from He Zhengdao. For the first time, they rushed to Yulin to hold the first military and political conference in 36 years to discuss the next operations and training of the troops.

Seeing the arrival of an old subordinate, He Zhengdao also seemed very happy. With the troops having a fixed defense zone, these subordinates are no longer seen as often as they used to. It is rare to get together again in the New Year, and everyone naturally seems to be very happy.

Yao Shengjun, who had even spent a Spring Festival in Yan'an, embarked on the road back to Yulin on the second day of the Lunar New Year to attend and participate in this first military and political meeting that was very important for the independent column.

The division and brigade commanders who also arrived in Yulin City for the first time, under the leadership of He Zhengdao, watched the Yulin Arsenal, which started on the sixth day of the first month. For the ammunition reloading capability of the arsenal, many division and brigade commanders knew what this meant.

Zhang Cheng, the commander of the 1st Division, who is currently the strongest, said with a smile: "Commander, with such a speed of reloading, can we arrange more live-fire training in the future?" ”

'Yes! In the outline of the follow-up training plan, I have already arranged corresponding live-fire training for your divisions. However, you must warn the fighters to cherish every opportunity to live ammunition. Don't waste bullets at will.

Although at present, military factories have made great breakthroughs in reloading bullets. But you should all know that if you want to reload bullets, other materials are also important, not just empty cartridge cases.

Moreover, the number of empty shells used is more, and there is also a certain scrap rate. In the absence of seizures. We also need to save some ammunition. Fighting for the live ammunition that the fighters use for training can improve their shooting skills. ’

The division and brigade commanders who listened to He Zhengdao's words really understood that the bullets were not inexhaustible. Under the existing circumstances, it seems that they also need to be strict about the live-fire training of the troops.

After visiting the arsenal, the first military and political meeting of the independent column at the beginning of the year was finally held at the station of the Second Division. Before the start of the meeting, Xiao Jinguang served as the political commissar of the column. A detailed report was made on the work of the column last year.

Later, in his capacity as the commander of the column, He Zhengdao began to speak: "Everyone has listened to the report made by the political commissar beforehand, and on the whole, our column has done a relatively good job in training and maintaining local security.

But let's not forget that compared to other legions, our column's material reserves have always been the most abundant. If we are equal, can we do as well as other legions? It's also something to consider.

The mistakes made in the past must be corrected in the future. And this year. It was the most critical year for our party, our army, and our column. I believe you should all know that Lao Jiang, who is far away in Nanjing, will not let us take root here so safely.

If we want to keep our young Soviet district, we can only pick up guns and fight them to the end. But what I have to tell you is that my opponents have never been them. It is the invading Japanese army that may move south at any time. ”

It seems to be an arrogant sentence, but it makes the commanders of the column division and brigade very trusted. From the Independent Regiment to the Independent Column, they were invincible under the command of He Zhengdao. In the words of He Zhengdao, the independent column must be able to win the battle immediately.

After saying this, He Zhengdao continued: "About this year's troop training plan. Specifically, it is divided into two major parts. Among them, it is the formation of local garrison troops, which are named after the county seat where they are stationed.

Except for the five cities of Shenmu, Hengshan, Mizhi, Jingbian and Suide, a garrison regiment was formed for the time being, and the rest of the cities formed garrison battalions. The rest of the divisions were downsized, and the troops were controlled at about 12,000 men, and the rest were all delegated to the garrison.

I hope that in the future, after we engage in the War of Resistance Against Japan, the main force of our division will be able to fight against an infantry brigade of the Japanese army. If we can't do this, then we should stop drinking slogans all day long, saying that we want to resist Japan and save the country. ”

Jiang Shan, the commander of the Third Division, who heard this, quickly said: "Commander, the size of an infantry brigade of the Japanese army should be less than 8,000 people, right?" We have 4,000 more than them, and we can't kill them. ”

Indeed, you are quite right, and it stands to reason that after we have reduced one division, we will outnumber them by nearly four thousand. But do you want to know the result if you were asked to pick 12,000 men and fight against a brigade of the Japanese army? ’

It is clear that many senior commanders in the current independent column do not know much about the Japanese army. Only those who have really fought with the Japanese army will know the horror of the Japanese army in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War.

In the expectant eyes of these division commanders and brigade commanders, He Zhengdao said directly: "Four words, you will definitely lose!" ”

The phrase 'will definitely fail' came out of He Zhengdao's mouth, and everyone looked a little surprised. In their eyes, He Zhengdao would rarely say that his troops were incompetent. Why, then, did he say that this time?

It was also at this time that He Zhengdao continued: "Maybe you will think that I am raising the morale of others and destroying the prestige of my own family. But I must warn you not to despise the Japanese army. At this moment, they do have rampant capital.

Let me pick a few simple pieces of information to tell you, and you will know why I made such a judgment. The soldiers of the Japanese divisions and regiments currently stationed in China must have received at least 11 months of military training.

The first five months of this year-long military training are intensive training for new recruits, and the training subjects include queues, assassination, target shooting, and training. During this period, there was at least one camping exercise under severe winter conditions to train the soldiers' cold resistance and night combat ability.

The next two months will be a regular training in the comprehensive quality of individual soldiers, emphasizing operational coordination at the squad and squadron levels. During this period, there must be more than 30 kilometers of marching endurance training every day, and no less than 5 kilometers of forced marching every day.

The next month will be a brigade-level combat training, and at this time, the recruits' target shooting results have stabilized, and the basic requirement is that they should shoot 10 shots and 80 rings at 400 meters. And from this month onwards, he began training in field shooting, swimming, and assassination.

In the next two months, we will carry out combat coordination at the brigade and wing levels, advanced technical and tactical operations, and firing line maneuvers. After such a rigorous training, in addition to having excellent individual skills, most of the ordinary soldiers of the Japanese army were able to have some experience in major battles.

In this way, the Japanese army, which has been trained rigorously, plus an infantry brigade, will also be equipped with a heavy machine gun squadron, a mountain artillery squadron, a field artillery squadron, and even a cavalry squadron. Now, do you still think that one division can deal with it? ”

As a doctor of military science from the National Defense University in later generations, He Zhengdao had special research on the Japanese army during the war period. In order to deal with the war of resistance against Japan, which could break out in a year's time, he had to prepare in advance.

When studying the materials of the Anti-Japanese War, He Zhengdao found that in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the successive defeats and retreats of the Chinese troops were not only inferior to the Japanese army's weapons and equipment, but also the combat quality and training of the officers and men of the troops were also very important.

As for the later period, why the Eighth Route Army and the Central Army were able to win. The reason is also very simple, the long-term war of resistance has led to the death of many elite soldiers of the Japanese army. Many of the recruits who are replenished, most of them have not undergone systematic recruit training.

In contrast, after the eight-year War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Chinese troops have matured from the experience of war. These veterans, who were fortunate not to die, became a nightmare for these Japanese recruits. Therefore, systematic military training is also very necessary.

After the end of the speech, the division and brigade commanders, who had originally despised it, gradually restrained their expressions. As divisional and brigade commanders, they knew very well that when they encountered such a Japanese brigade, their chances of victory were very small.

And He Zhengdao quickly said: "In the case that we are inferior to the Japanese army with existing equipment, we can only rely on the superiority in numbers to win." That's why I've convened this meeting to plan for the next military training work.

Next, the chief of staff will distribute all the training contents of each division that I have formulated to the hands of your four division commanders. As for the cavalry brigade and the recruit brigade, you also have a detailed training plan, and then you can implement it according to the regulations.

In addition, the military training of the garrison troops in your defense zone also needs to be inspected by your divisions. Units that fail to meet the standards will be dismissed from their posts as military commanders and reappointed. I don't want that to happen either.

But I don't want to see such immature troops thrown into battle in the future, and a large number of soldiers will be killed. In order to prevent this from happening, I can only strictly supervise you, understand? ”

'Yes, Commander! ’

After the training syllabus that took nearly half a month to write was distributed, many division and brigade commanders who had obtained the training syllabus felt gasped. can think about the Japanese army that He Zhengdao said earlier, this training syllabus seems to be quite preferential.

The expressions on the faces of these division commanders and brigade commanders, He Zhengdao naturally saw it very clearly. Therefore, he continued: "Next, the political commissar and the director will be responsible for the political education and logistics support of your divisions, and what you have to do is to train hard.

All the officers and men who have been eliminated will be placed in the garrison regiments and garrison battalions of various cities in the defense area. Their training intensity can be reduced by half. In the future, your divisions will replenish the source of troops, and priority will be given to selecting qualified troops from the garrison units.

To put it simply, each garrison is your recruit training camp. If you want to recruit qualified soldiers in the future, then you must supervise the daily training of these garrisons. ”

This kind of safety can be regarded as interlocking. The garrison is responsible for keeping one side safe. The main forces on the front line are fully engaged in training and ready to deal with the enemy who may have an invasion base.

As long as these main divisions are given three months of training, He Zhengdao believes that the combat effectiveness of these four main divisions will completely defeat the various warlord forces currently stationed near Yulin.

If you can't even deal with these people, how can you deal with the more elite Japanese army in the future?
