Considering that the war on the front line was raging, the central government convened a meeting of military and political dignitaries returning to Yan'an on the second day of the wedding banquet. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThis congress is actually the Sixth Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, and the people invited to attend the meeting are all military and political leaders from all sides.
Although there seems to be a meeting again every day on the Yan'an side, a large-scale military and political meeting like today's is also the first time since the Red Army moved to Shaanxi. Almost all the people who attended the wedding banquet yesterday are here today.
When He Zhengdao came to the venue, many of the main division commanders who arrived at the venue in advance also smiled and waved to greet them. Even though the situation in Yan'an is much better than before, everyone is still sitting on the bench at such a conference.
Except for a slightly better arrangement of the rostrum, most of the venues are chairs, and most of the participants who arrive at the venue have two people and one stool. Of course, the notebook and pen are also indispensable things, and it is necessary to record the spirit of the meeting!
Seeing He Zhengdao who walked into the venue with Xiao Jinguang, Mr. He, who arrived early, immediately beckoned: "Old Xiao, Zhengdao, sit here!" I thought you, the bridegroom, might be late today, but I didn't expect you to come early! ”
Is this a compliment? ’
For Mr. He likes to ridicule himself, He Zhengdao is used to it. And in private, Mr. He actually doesn't have much of a fight, his open-minded and generous personality, coupled with his iconic beard, makes his popularity good in the party and the army.
Moreover, as the founder of the Red Second Front Army, Mr. He's status in the party and the army is naturally not low. Although he currently holds the position of division commander of the 120th Division, he is also the only person among the ten main divisions who is the division commander and political commissar.
The old partner who was in the Red Second Front Army earlier, after arriving in Yan'an, has been left in the central side to recuperate and treat his injuries due to physical reasons. And He Zhengdao also knows that the condition of this political commissar is indeed not optimistic.
In his previous life, it was precisely because his illness had not been properly treated that he had been a political commissar for many years, and in the second year after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the political commissar who was less than 50 died of illness.
Accompanied by He Zhengdao, he greeted the participants who arrived early one by one, and finally chose a relatively backward seat and sat with Xiao Jinguang. For such a choice, Mr. He didn't say much.
If you really want to talk about it, the two commanders of the independent column do have relatively shallow qualifications in the party army. It seems that sitting with him will still make people feel uncomfortable, and it is actually rare for He Zhengdao to have this kind of awareness.
When there were only 10 minutes left before the meeting, the members of the presidium of the conference also entered one by one. There was no march, which was common in later generations, and there was no ceremony for the establishment of the national anthem, only applause from the participants.
In the applause, **** and others, who were also dressed in simple military uniforms, also sat on the rostrum with smiles on their faces. Their arrival also realized that this conference had officially kicked off.
According to the schedule of the meeting, He Zhengdao knew that the meeting would be held for three days. Among them, there was a meeting on the party, and there was also a military meeting of the Eighth Route Army led by Mr. Zhu, and after three days, everyone had to return to the defense area.
On the first day of the meeting, **** made a report to the congress, conveying some instructions on the Communist International, as well as some new policies and guidelines within the party. Serious criticism was made for some erroneous lines.
In the morning, most of the participants in He Zhengdao listened quietly. On the rostrum, more **** spoke to Luo Fu and others. Of course, Zhou Enlai and others also successively reported some of the achievements of the party's work for which they were responsible.
At the end of the morning session, everyone also had a two-hour break. And for lunch, it was also in the military recruitment canteen where the wedding banquet was held yesterday. It's just that the standard of lunch is not as rich as yesterday's wedding banquet.
However, the combination of four dishes, one soup, two meat and two vegetables still allows eight people at a table to have a full meal. As for the wine, of course, there is still none. But even so, everyone quickly ended their lunch and found someone to get together to talk.
As the new groom's officer, He Zhengdao has also become the object of conversation among many main division commanders. Liu Zhidan, the commander of the 116th Division, who also had a good relationship with He Zhengdao, also deliberately found He Zhengdao and asked about the battle in Henan.
As the 116th Division advanced into Henan to fight, Liu Zhidan also knew that their division and the 127th Division were mainly opponents of the 14th Division commanded by Tu Feiyuan. For this main division of the Japanese army, he still hopes to know more.
Among the main divisions of the Eighth Route Army, the one who had real combat experience with real swords and guns with Japanese divisions and regiments was undoubtedly He Zhengdao, the commander of the independent column. There is nothing to be ashamed of in Liu Zhidan's view of appropriately exchanging some combat experience.
Perhaps all the main divisions know that even if they are currently expanding their troops, they are doing a good job. But if you really want to compete with a main division of the Japanese army, no one dares to guarantee that it can play the same record as an independent column.
At least they all know that not only in the Suichaji Military Region in Yulin currently has a heavy artillery regiment. Even the new 67th Army, which was fighting in the south, also pulled up a heavy artillery regiment in the course of the battle.
And on the battlefield, the large number of artillery units owned by the Japanese divisions and regiments is also a great headache for them. Whether offensive or defensive, artillery can play a role in turning the tide of battle in many cases.
Looking at the many main division commanders who came around to listen, He Zhengdao also felt a little flattered. In any case, among these main division commanders, he is indeed a small character, how dare he get an axe in front of these people?
On the contrary, Mr. He said very bluntly: "Don't be modest, you kid, excessive modesty is pride." We did the revolution earlier than you, and we didn't fight much with the little devils, and we certainly didn't have as much experience as you.
Although we say that the little devils are not good, their actual combat effectiveness is not bad. Especially in the operation of large corps, they have more experience than us. If you have any good experiences, you can also share them with us. Isn't it possible? ”
'Boss, what you say can hurt me! Okay, then I'll talk a little bit about my personal experience! In fact, with the full-scale outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, in order to meet the needs of different combat scales, the Japanese army divided divisions and regiments into four grades: A, B, C, and D.
Similar to the 14th Division of the Japanese Army that Commander Liu and Commander Dong are about to deal with, it is the most elite training division of the Japanese army. This kind of division is also known as the horse pulling division in the Japanese army, and has jurisdiction over two infantry brigades and one wing of engineer, cavalry, artillery, and baggage.
If it is a reorganized division and regiment, plus non-combatants who cooperate with the division and regiment, the size of such a division is about 30,000 people. This is also the combat division used in the Japanese army to serve as an offensive and pioneering division.
As for the B division, also known as the pack horse division, although this kind of division has compressed the cavalry wing compared with the standard of the A division in terms of structure, the infantry brigade, engineering, artillery, and baggage units are also complete, and the total strength is more than 20,000 people.
If, in the case of a field battle, we now have a main division to meet them, I am afraid that we will really have to be more cautious. As for the other two lower-level divisions, their combat effectiveness was relatively weaker.
Most of the C divisions were expanded by the mixed brigades of the Japanese army, with three infantry wings, one engineer and one artillery wing, and generally five wings, plus non-combatants directly under the division, the total strength was also about 15,000 people.
As for the Japanese army's divisions, they were also expanded by mixed brigades and regiments, with three infantry wings under their jurisdiction, while the other arms were only composed of brigades or squadrons, and the size of the divisions and regiments was about 10,000. Due to its flexibility, it is mainly used to sweep our base areas. ’
After listening to He Zhengdao's division of the Japanese army's divisions, Xu Xiangqian, who was sitting on the side, also said thoughtfully: "Zhengdao, according to your division, then the Japanese division that swept our defense area in the early stage should be a Japanese army division regiment?" ”
'Almost! In fact, in North China and Shandong, the Japanese army has stationed some mixed brigades and regiments as reserve defense units in some important cities. When there is a combat mission, they will be expanded into divisions.
In the name of the division and regiment, it is used to carry out sweeping and eradication tasks. Sometimes, when we hear that the little devils send a division to carry out a sweeping mission, it is often easy to be confused by the little devils. But in fact, the Japanese army divisions and regiments are also large and small. ’
'This should be similar to the difference between our main division and the garrison, right?' ’
Liu Zhidan, who interjected at the right time, also quickly figured out that the A division group was about the same level as their main division. As for the Ding Division, it is about the same as the garrison brigades and garrison divisions they stationed in some cities in the rear.
Regarding Liu Zhidan's description, He Zhengdao also nodded at the right time and said: "The meaning is almost the same, but when it comes to combat effectiveness, our garrison troops are not as good as their Ding Division." In terms of combat experience, our garrison is very lacking.
On the contrary, most of the units stationed by the Japanese army in various places have rich combat experience. Even if some units have not experienced the baptism of major battles, they often fight against our armed forces behind enemy lines, and they still have a lot of actual combat experience.
Even our main forces, if they really come up with them, need to be cautious. Underestimating their combat effectiveness will also cost us dearly. Fighting them and trying to get as many points as possible will work wonders.
And this time, the 14th Division that Division Commander Liu and Division Commander Dong have to deal with should actually be more cautious. It's not that our two main divisions can't deal with the little devil, the main division, but we have to be careful of their division commanders.
Kenji Dohihara, the commander of the Japanese Lieutenant General's Division, was a classmate of Yan Laoxi in his early years, and now Banhuan Seishiro, who is stationed in Shanxi, and Okamura Ningji, who participated in the Battle of Wuhan before, are all close friends of him.
started as a second lieutenant officer in the Japanese army, and was promoted step by step to the position of lieutenant general division commander of the Japanese army. In the early years of the Russo-Japanese War, the Second Zhibong War, and the occupation of the three eastern provinces to establish the puppet Manchukuo, he all existed. This is a real Huaxia pass! ”
There is still a lot of information about Kenji Tsuchihara about him in later generations. This is an old treacherous Japanese general, if he is not careful, the two main divisions of the Eighth Route Army who fought with him for the first time may really be in his hands! (To be continued.) )
