[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 410: Meeting (Ask for subscriptions, ask for monthly passes, ask for everything!) ）

A week had passed since the battle to regain Zhangjiakou, and the Japanese army did not immediately counterattack as Ma Zheng had expected, but rarely contracted the entire front, not only withdrawing the 10th Division, which was fighting in eastern Hebei, to Beiping, but also adjusting the defensive forces from Datong to Xuanhua, and even abandoning many towns and villages in prominent positions.

The various actions of the Japanese army show that they are now unable to carry out an all-round counterattack against the Suicha Military Region, so Ma Zheng decided to convene a military and political conference at the level of the whole military region to determine the direction of the development of the troops in the future; after all, the Suicha Military Region is no longer the anti-Japanese detachment behind enemy lines with only three hills in the past, and the Suicha Military Region has developed into a huge group with defense areas covering more than 40 banner counties in the four provinces of Suiyuan, Chahar, Hebei, and Rehe. Both the troop establishment and the defense zone must be readjusted.

Therefore, three days ago, Ma Zheng issued an order in the name of the commander of the military region that after the military and political chiefs of all divisions and brigades had settled the troops on the front, they must return to Guisui by 4 April to attend a military meeting.

This was the first time in the past year that the Suicha Military Region had convened such a large-scale meeting, and the military and political commanders of the divisions and brigades naturally did not dare to slack off, and after giving a good account of the affairs of the defense zone, they returned to Suicha one after another.

On April 4, Guisui, the large conference room of the headquarters of the Suicha Military Region.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Ma Zheng, Yun Jian, Wang Hansen, Xu Yinghui, Xu Xiaolin, Feng An, Huang Sicheng, Huang Bingyan, Yang Chengwu, Wu Xiuda, Liu Fengchi, Tie Xinlan and others came to the venue one after another.

After arriving at the meeting venue, both the leaders of the various armies and the responsible persons of government work consciously found their seats and sat down, and no one made any noise, let alone a loud noise.

The meeting officially began at half past eight, and the meeting was personally presided over by Ma Zheng.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Ma Zheng motioned for the guards to close the door of the conference room, and then got up and said: "Comrades, after two months of fighting, we have finally completed the established battle plan and achieved the strategic goal after paying great sacrifices, so we gathered together today to hold a military and political meeting at the division and brigade level of the Suicha Military Region. ”

"Comrades, as the supreme commander of the military district and as a member of the military district, I feel incomparably proud and proud. The history of our Suicha Military Region is not very long, it has been less than eight months, and it does not have as many proud pasts as the other divisions and brigades of the Eighth Route Army, including me, the commander of the Military Region, who was only a small infantry battalion commander before arriving in Chahar, but we have made a proud record as a new soldier. ”

"Here we must thank the people of the Suicha area, thinking that when we fled to Chahar with a remnant army of less than 100 people, it was the people of the Suicha area who accepted us and supported us. After countless battles, we finally gained a firm foothold in this land, and the devils couldn't defeat us, and the traitors and puppet army trembled when they saw us. What do we rely on, what we rely on is the courage of the brave who meets on the narrow road; relied on the domineering spirit that used me in the first battle and I will win; relies on the backbone of the jade rather than the tile; It also depends on our solidarity and unity. ”

"It is precisely with courage, domineering, backbone and righteousness condensed into righteousness, our contingent continues to expand, and the territory is also constantly expanding, and now our defense area has expanded from a mere Yama Mountain to a total of 46 banner counties in Sui, Chacha, Re, and Hebei provinces, and there are six large cities with a population of more than 300,000 alone. At the same time, we have also achieved immortal achievements, so every soldier, peasant, and worker should be proud, because this is the result of the efforts of all of us, and you have a share of the credit! ”

Ma Zheng's expression was solemn and his voice was loud, summing up the development process of the unit and the proud achievements it has made in the past two years.

Originally, Ma Zheng should have said these phased summaries a long time ago, but he always felt that the troops were fledgling and could be destroyed at any time under the blows of the Japanese army, so he endured it and didn't say it. However, now the troops have not only defeated Guisui, Baotou, and Chengde, but even Zhangjiakou, the provincial capital of Chahar, has also recovered, and with the current combat effectiveness of the Suicha Military Region, it is completely not afraid of the counterattack of the Japanese puppet army, and it can be said that it has really gained a firm foothold in the north, so it is time to say these affirmative words to all the officers and soldiers.

"Bang Bang Bang"

Before Ma Zheng's words fell, warm applause rang out in the conference room, and all the officers attending the meeting also clapped their hands excitedly, and the applause lasted for a long time.

After a long time, Ma Zheng signaled everyone to be quiet, and then continued: "Comrades, the results are certain, there is no doubt about this. But we are not invincible generals, we also have shortcomings and weaknesses. Don't think that we can rest easy after defeating Hasunuma Pan, defeating Harem Jun, and defeating Terauchi Shouichi, you must know that our enemy is Japan, which has accumulated a hundred years of national strength, and these Japanese devils we annihilated only account for a small handful of the total strength of the Japanese army, not to mention looking at the whole country, let's just say that there are still more than a dozen divisions of the Japanese army in the entire North China region, so we must not be complacent, quoting the words of Mr. Sun Yat-sen, the founder of the Kuomintang, and saying: The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard! ”

"After some period of operations, we have successfully conquered Chabei, Chanan, and Renan, and the total area of the defense area has more than tripled in a short period of time, and the total strength of the troops has also increased a lot, so I feel that it is necessary to readjust the establishment of the troops and the defense area. It is important to know that strong fortresses are often destroyed from the inside, and if we want to defeat the enemy, we must first clean our own house. ”

When Ma Zheng said that the establishment of the troops and the defense area should be adjusted, all the military and political cadres sat up straight, and they knew that the dry goods were coming. They all know very well that the previous remarks are all summing-ups, and they are all things of the past, and they are not of much use to the current and future development of the troops, and it is enough to listen to them and make their emotions excited and excited, and what really affects them, or what they are looking forward to, is the adjustment of the troop establishment and defense area.

Indeed, everyone is looking forward to it, and according to past practice, the first thing the military region will do to expand its troops every time it wins a battle. The expansion means that the original troops will be upgraded, and they will also be promoted as those who have made great contributions in wartime.

Although there is no such thing as promotion and wealth within the Eighth Route Army, as an officer, anyone hopes that he can command more troops, fight larger-scale battles, and play games with stronger enemies.

Then Ma Zheng continued: "Next, I would like to ask Political Commissar Yun to read out the reorganization plan of the military region for everyone, and I will say in advance that this is only a draft drafted within the military region, and it has not yet been submitted to Yan'an and the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army for approval. ”

After saying this, Ma Zheng signaled that Yun Jian could read out the plan. (To be continued.) )
