"From a strategic point of view, the commander-in-chief is right to break it into pieces. First of all, the Japanese heavy army group is gathered on the border line, and this force is so strong that it is impossible to fight it with our current strength. Wherever they press, they can be a major force that will determine the outcome of the battlefield. We can analyze that once the Soviets and Germany really go to war, the Japanese army has no threat and can mobilize the divisions on the border line, and what they want to do most will definitely be to destroy us. Now the Japanese army has regarded our department as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh, and will go all out to encircle and suppress our army no matter what. In that case, no matter where we are, we will be fiercely attacked by the Japanese army, and this situation will be reduced to zero, although it is possible that the enemy will be broken individually, and at the same time, it will also save the fire for the revolution, and once the Japanese army really mobilizes the main force to attack the base area, it will definitely be a big battle, a vicious battle. Therefore, my opinion is to avoid the enemy's edge. The basis for the division of troops is to cultivate obscurity. Immerse yourself in occupying the countryside, and after establishing a strong base area, you will compete with the Japanese army for a short time. Chief of Staff Liu Yalou analyzed.

After Liu Yalou finished speaking, Zhou Baozhong, Guan Xiangying, and the representatives of each column were silent.

"Our central task now is to survive, to build up our strength, and to lay the groundwork for the future Reconquista. In a word, survival first! ”

"How can we survive? I believe that everyone should be clear about this point, which is the way to mobilize the masses and resolutely break the Japanese army's policy of group tribes and armor protection, so that our army can survive and make great achievements. Our army is like a fish, and the common people are like water, and the fish will die if they leave the water. On the contrary, as long as the fish swim into the sea, our army and the common people will blend together, no matter how strong the Kwantung Army is, and no matter how strong the puppet Manchu Army is, there will be no way to take us. ”

"Our situation here is very special, the Japanese puppet regime has ruled for a long time, the level of economic development is relatively high, the society is relatively stable, the land is vast and sparsely populated, there are relatively many immigrants from Japan, Korea, and Russia, and the number of ethnic minorities who have been bewitched by the name of Puyi puppet Manchukuo is also large. In addition, the Japanese puppet army vigorously promoted slavery education in the northeast, and the Northeast Army gave up resistance and abandoned 30 million people in the three eastern provinces, so that the northeast fathers and elders believed that the anti-Japanese army had a heart of resistance, and the work of mobilizing the masses was much more difficult than that in the Guannai. At the same time, however, we must also realize that the people of Northeast China have suffered more from being enslaved by the Japanese aggressors than other areas in the Guannai, and the hatred hidden in their hearts is even greater, and as long as we have the right policies and methods, we will certainly be able to mobilize the masses to rise up and join us in resisting Japan.

"Although there are some differences between the situation outside the customs and those inside the customs, one is to choose the right breakthrough point. This breakthrough point is the relatively concentrated and relatively easy mobilization of the group of workers. Coal mines, factories, power plants, lumber yards, transport enterprises, etc., are the focus of work with a large number of workers, great discontent, and a relatively good foundation of our party. The various units had to go deep into the mining areas, make friends with the workers, and mobilize the workers to unite against the Japanese, among which the lowest people, such as laborers and lumberjacks, were the easiest to mobilize. ”

"The second is to resolutely suppress traitors, and resolutely suppress and deter those traitors who have blood debts and those who have defected to the enemy before. We only suppress the traitors who are guilty of the most crimes, unite the workers, the poor peasants, the young students, and the intellectuals, unite and mobilize the ordinary pseudo-clerks, enterprise clerks, merchants, business owners, and landlords to fight against us together, and we cannot completely retreat them to the opposite side. ”

"The third is to target the Japanese army's policy of merging Datun, get into the belly of the princess of the iron fan, build a white-skinned and red-hearted regime, and compete with the Japanese army for grassroots political power in the countryside and for the hearts of the people."

"Fourth, we must resolutely implement our party's policy of protecting national industry and commerce and developing production, and only confiscate the assets of Japanese counterfeit and traitors during the war, and must not infringe on the assets of other industrialists and businessmen.

"Fifth, it is necessary to strengthen the ideological work of the troops and eliminate traitors. Once the troops are reorganized into parts, discipline must be the most important thing, and once a month in the troops, we will resolutely eliminate the irresolute elements, and in accordance with the method of building the main force of our army, we will build the troops into iron and steel units that cannot be dragged down or defeated. ”

"The troops carried out a zero-part operation, which left a large area of rivers and mountains for the Japanese army on the surface. In order to occupy these places, the Japanese had to divide their forces and defend them; In order to protect the transportation lines of highways and railways, a large number of pillboxes and fortifications had to be built along the highways and railways, and troops were sent to guard them, and the troops were dispersed into hundreds or even thousands of kilometers of long lines; In order to prevent various units and guerrillas from descending the mountain to attack, the "smart" Japanese army built a large number of artillery forts along the periphery of the mountainous area, and also had to send a large number of troops to guard it, and also dispersed its forces into a long line of nearly 1,000 kilometers. In this way, the powerful strength of the Japanese army was forced to be reduced to pieces by our army, and every pillbox and stronghold was surrounded by the invisible anti-Japanese army and people, becoming a turtle in an urn, and was passively beaten everywhere. ”

"Commander-in-chief, your starting point is good, but once the main forces of the four columns leave, the base area will face a large number of Japanese sieges, and then the columns will not be able to quench their thirst, neither in terms of time nor marching speed, I think it is better to leave one or two columns to protect the safety of the base area!" Feng Zhongyun suggested.

"This point is also what I want to emphasize, although the four columns have left the base area, but we are not empty of troops, you must know that we have arranged the reclamation corps in various places, as well as the left-behind corps, the strength is still very sufficient, of course, difficulties are inevitable, but as long as the more fierce the columns fight outside, the better the development, then the safer we are here." Meng Qingshan said with a smile.

"That's true, but Commander-in-Chief, I think it's still too risky." Zhou Baozhong said worriedly.

"How can there be no risk in fighting, as long as we bear this hard half a year, then it should be the time for us to fight back, I know that everyone is worried about the safety of the headquarters, but please put your heart in your stomach, it is impossible for the little devil to easily enter the base, you must believe in the strength of the headquarters, you must know that the headquarters has two trump cards in the hands of the armored division and the flying brigade, and in the two months before that, the headquarters has attracted devil firepower for everyone, so that you have two months to develop and grow, After two months, I want you to repay the headquarters with practical actions, otherwise the headquarters will not be able to bear it. If you want to be always insecure, it's up to you to do what you can do, and hopefully don't let down the headquarters. ”

"The commander-in-chief has given us a good idea, and if we can't finish it, wouldn't it be too embarrassing? Please rest assured, the chiefs will definitely make the little devil's jurisdiction bloom everywhere within two months, so that the devil will not be able to threaten the base area. ”

"What I want is what you say, comrades, a hard battle awaits us, I hope that all commanders and fighters can give full play to the advantages of our army to carry out operations, everything must be weighed first, do not be rash, it is better to be at home outside, there is no headquarters to replenish your troops and equipment supplies, everything depends on yourself, when the time comes, whether to eat meat and drink wine in large pieces, or eat nests and gnaw bran pickles is up to you."

"Now each column immediately left a list of materials and weapons and equipment needed, I asked the logistics department to send it to you immediately, it is May 3rd, I hope that before June 20th, all units will be immediately deployed, we have just gone through a battle, successfully disabled the 11th Division of the Japanese Kwantung Army, and defeated the 29th Division of the Japanese Army stationed in Harbin, and now the iron net in front of us has been torn open by us, and we have to leave while the Japanese army has not blocked the opening. If a war is unavoidable, then you must concentrate absolutely superior forces in each battle, and fight quickly; if the enemy is very strong, avoid its edge, and deal with them with the sabotage warfare, mine warfare, tunnel warfare, sparrow warfare, and ambush warfare that our army is good at, and we must strike at the enemy's lone enemy with all our might. Ensure that every battle will be won, and the troops will not suffer heavy losses, and the more they fight, the stronger they will become. In view of the strong strength of the Japanese army, the fighters are fleeting, and there is no need to ask for instructions in every battle, and they can win the battle. I hope to hear about your achievements in the near future. ”
