Chapter 285: Forming a Teaching Group

With the end of the public memorial activities held in Yan'an, this martyr's cemetery located in Yan'an City has also become a holy place in the hearts of many officers and soldiers of the guard division. As soldiers, they all want to lie there in the future.

Such a wish sounds a bit ridiculous, but for many ordinary guards and soldiers, they feel that the martyrs' cemetery is the best place to be. If they die in battle, they all want their bodies to be buried there.

Even to the surprise of many leaders of the central ministries in Yan'an, the people of Yan'an City would spontaneously go to worship during the time they were stationed in Yan'an in the future. The formation of such a situation may not have been expected by anyone before.

It's just that for the advocate He Zhengdao, who came from later generations, he knew very well that in the future era of peace, these heroic souls who sacrificed their lives for the country often did not receive the sacrifices they deserved. Many people even forget about them altogether.

In the future, some of these martyrs' cemeteries will even be bulldozed in the name of obstructing economic development, or they will fall into disrepair and no one will care about them. Seeing these reports in his previous life, He Zhengdao felt a deep sense of sadness and anger.

Now that he has the opportunity to come into this era, he feels that something should be done about it. At least He Zhengdao hopes that one day in the future, when he falls down and is buried in these cemeteries, he does not want to see his tombstone bulldozed underground.

To forget history is to betray, and to deny responsibility is to reoffend. This sentence, He Zhengdao feels very reasonable. From the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, such education was used to inform everyone that peace was not easy to come by.

It is also hoped that with the help of such a public sacrifice, everyone who is still alive needs to remember the lessons of history. Don't repeat the mistakes of the past. Don't let down these martyrs who fought for the country, the nation, and the people.

End the public memorial ceremony. The military and political commanders of the divisions who came to participate in the military and political conference also left Yan'an one after another. As for He Zhengdao. I needed to deal with some aftermath matters, and I was also left in Yan'an for a few more days.

Although this Spring Festival, He Zhengdao needs to go back to Yulin, and even needs to go down to the army to inspect it a year ago. But during this time in Yan'an, Mao Taizu and Mr. Zhu often talked to him.

When asked what suggestions he had for next year's combat deployment, He Zhengdao also said directly: "Chairman, commander-in-chief, if I had to make a suggestion, I would still agree with what the chairman said. Next year, we will still focus on strategic defense.

As far as the current situation and strength of our army are concerned, if we expand the base areas, we can only expand the base areas behind enemy lines. Under the condition of consolidating the existing base areas, the main division of our number will continue to infiltrate in the direction of North China.

As for the new units that have been expanded, they will enter the forward areas of the base areas and engage in rotational battles with the Japanese troops attacking our base areas. Through this defensive battle, the troops who are constantly tempering and beating us are preparing for future counteroffensives.

Secondly. During this time, after discussing with the old leaders of each division, I felt that the current enrollment scale of our Kang Da is limited. More officers are trained only at the division and regimental level, but there is a lack of training for officers in battalions and companies.

I have an idea that I hope the chairman and the commander-in-chief can consider it. That is to form a teaching group. Battalion and company-level officers of divisions and garrison units were recruited for a three-month military command training.

In the future, if conditions permit, this teaching group will be expanded. As for the commander of the teaching regiment. Commanders with rich combat experience are selected. Again, on the side of Kang University, select instructors to teach them.

Year down. We were able to conduct four training sessions. Trained battalion company commanders, after returning to the troops. It is believed that the operational command of battalions and companies will also be combined with the operational theories they have learned.

If these battalion and company commanders are promoted in the future, there is no need to rush to transfer them to Kang Da to study in a short time. In this way, we will also be able to effectively strengthen the operational command quality of our army's backbone commanders and lay a good foundation for future army expansion.

I even think that those units of the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army that are currently being incorporated can transfer their battalion and company commanders. After three months of study in the teaching group, I believe that they will also have a deeper understanding of our army's combat methods.

It also helps them integrate better and faster into our troops. In the future, when we really want to pull them to the front line, I believe that there will not be a situation where the troops will not be miscoordinated due to different operational concepts. ”

Listening to He Zhengdao's words, Mao Taizu said in a timely manner: "Is it similar to the teaching team under Lao Jiang?" ”

'Yes! But I personally think that the training corps should be a training unit for junior officers, not a unit like the gendarmerie. The combat effectiveness of a unit with battalion and company commanders as the backbone is naturally self-evident.

But I personally feel that such a unit is dispersed throughout the army and plays a greater role. These grassroots commanders can actually play a greater role when they are delegated to grassroots units to serve as battalion and company commanders.

Another reason why I think it should be formed is that it can effectively enhance the comprehensive command and coordination ability of our army's grassroots commanders. It is also conducive to us controlling the command level of the grassroots troops, so that the troops can truly obey the party's command! ’

In He Zhengdao's view, during the Battle of Songhu, Lao Chiang pulled the teaching team to the battlefield, and even during the defense of Nanjing, he also placed high hopes on this army, which seemed somewhat wasteful.

It is true that the teaching team is an ace force. But if the officers of these training teams are delegated to other grassroots units. It is believed that the combat effectiveness of these grassroots units will also be greatly enhanced.

In addition, it is somewhat irrational for this ace unit to be pushed to the front of the main force of the Japanese army for confrontation. Speaking of which, He Zhengdao felt that the comprehensive combat effectiveness of this unit was only about the same as that of the reconnaissance brigade of the independent column.

Such a unit should fight in the form of a small detachment and go deep into the enemy to carry out attacks and sabotage. In this way, they will play a more useful role than blocking the offensive line of the main Japanese army and acting as a defensive force.

In the face of He Zhengdao's suggestion, Mao Taizu also felt that it was very necessary. In the current establishment of the Eighth Route Army, battalion and company commanders are undoubtedly the backbone command force of the main forces, and the strength of these officers also determines the strength of the combat effectiveness of the troops.

Although Kang University is currently resisting, it has expanded its enrollment scale. But at present, the officers at the regimental level are somewhat unable to train. Not to mention, what about a much larger number of battalion and company officers?

Thinking of this, Mao Taizu asked, "Boss, what do you think of this?" ”

'It's necessary! At present, Kang Da is a university of our Eighth Route Army, but middle schools and primary schools are also necessary. Without secondary schools and primary schools, universities are likely to cut off students, and even some new students will not be able to keep up.

If a teaching regiment is formed, then even our Eighth Route Army will have a middle school. In the future, in each division, a teaching team will also be formed to train those platoon commanders or military backbones, which can be regarded as primary schools.

Outstanding graduates of primary schools enter the teaching group and go to middle school. The outstanding graduates who have come out of this middle school will come to Kang University for further study in the future. The military commanders who have been trained in this way believe that they have a better foundation and will be able to enhance the combat effectiveness of their troops.

It's just that this kind of teaching regiment with the nature of a military academy is not suitable for Yan'an. If it is placed in Xi'an, it seems to be a little inappropriate. It is better to do this, and the first teaching regiment will be placed in your Yulin Military Region.

You are the writer of the training syllabus of the Eighth Route Army, and you are also the recognized general of our army. Secondly, the saber special combat team and reconnaissance brigade you trained can also be called the elite of our army. I think it's fitting that you will be the first head of the regiment.

Most importantly, there is an arsenal in Yulin, so if you want to train weapons, it will be more convenient for you to do so. At least I know that those division commanders are intent on asking you to give you a place in the saber training camp at this meeting.

Since they all recognize your level of military training, I think it should be appropriate for you to form the first teaching group. In this way, you will be able to give lessons to these battalion and company commanders in the future without delaying your work in the base areas. ’

In fact, when he said this suggestion, He Zhengdao also knew that it was somewhat inappropriate to place this teaching group in Yan'an. The most important place to put it should be Xi'an, where the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army is currently located.

But if you want to say the most appropriate words, He Zhengdao thinks it is most appropriate to still be in Yulin. At least He Zhengdao believes that he will not be worse than anyone else in terms of operational theory and experience. After all, that's what he learned before he crossed over!

Countless cases of combat experience can be told by He Zhengdao to the students of the teaching regiment. Through the analysis of various combat cases, these students can control more theoretical knowledge of battlefield handling.

If they encounter such a situation on the battlefield in the future, they can also make corresponding solutions in a timely manner. But for this kind of thing, He Zhengdao can't recommend himself, and he still needs to obey the orders of the Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

Listening to Mr. Zhu's words, Mao Taizu actually felt that he was more relieved to hand over this teaching group to He Zhengdao. Therefore, Mao Taizu quickly recognized Mr. Zhu's words.

In this regard, He Zhengdao did not shirk it, and said directly: "Since the two leaders think that I am suitable, then I will not shirk." Before the Spring Festival, I will put up the shelves of the teaching group, and the teachers will also ask the central government and the headquarters to help.

For the first batch of students, they will be selected from our ten main divisions. If there are more places, priority will be given to the grassroots officers of the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army who have joined our army. What do the two chiefs think? ”

'Yes! As for the formation of the teaching group, you should write a detailed plan at that time, and I will discuss it with the Standing Committee members at that time. As for the selection of personnel, let the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army be fully responsible! ’

'Okay! When I return to Xi'an, this order will be issued to the whole army. I believe that those main division commanders will also be very happy to hear this news. Those students who can study with you for three months will also find it very beneficial. ’

In fact, He Zhengdao is also willing to accept the head of the regiment and the instructor who are also instructors. After all, with the identity of this regiment commander and instructor, he will have a teacher-student relationship with these battalion company commanders in the future.

This also means that after these students graduate, they should also remember his kindness as a regiment leader and instructor! (To be continued.) )
