Chapter 387: Development (4)
Ideas far beyond the historical status quo cannot be understood by people without historical experience, and Meng Qingshan is not prepared to let them understand and support it, as long as he does not add to the chaos, the facts will eventually prove his correctness. "You don't have to worry about violating the party's policies and guidelines, in fact, I told Vice Chairman Zhou before he came, Vice Chairman Zhou agreed with this plan, but there was no time and money to deal with the encirclement and suppression of the Japanese army, and now we have enough materials to do a good job in this matter, and we have solved the problem that we always rely on capture to get materials, as the team grows day by day, relying on the captured materials alone is a drop in the bucket, and if it is not changed, the team will be dragged down."
"Our party's ideology is to serve the Chinese people wholeheartedly as its purpose, to integrate the basic tenets of Marxism with the actual needs of the Chinese revolution, and to explore and practice with confidence and boldness."
"What the Party and the people need is the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the strength of the revolutionary forces, and the prosperity of the country. Those principles and policies that have proved wrong in the practice of the past revolutions and will cause serious harm must be adjusted. Many of the practices of the Soviet Union were not suited to the Chinese revolution, and some of them caused huge losses to the revolutionary cause, and we cannot learn from the Soviet Union in everything, because after all, we live in different environments, different countries, and different people's thinking. ”
"There was a big factor in the failure of our Anti-United Nations at the beginning, we are all one of the leaders of the Anti-United Nations Command, and our understanding and application of policies, and the decisions made in specific work directly affect the future of our Anti-United Nations and the realization of our army's strategic concept. What kind of theories should you use to guide your work, what kind of state of mind should you use to handle all kinds of contradictions, and what kind of concepts should you use to promote the development of various undertakings? It's not something that can be done with enthusiasm and past experience. ”
"I hope that you will find time to step up your theoretical study, enhance your political consciousness, stand on the stand of the people, and think about the work for which you are responsible and how to promote the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the troops around the fundamental task of strengthening themselves and destroying the enemy. How to mobilize the people's anti-Japanese enthusiasm and how to develop the economy of the base areas. It is very difficult for cadres who have no ideology and can only work hard to make progress. ”
"There will be a period of calm in the North Manchurian region, but our active offensive cannot be stopped. However, the goal of the offensive has become to develop industry and economy, occupy and consolidate the vast countryside, help the poor, reduce rents and interest rates, suppress local ruffians and bullies, win the support of the overwhelming majority of the people, establish a relationship between the army and the people, smash the enemy's sinister intention of gathering villages and merging households, and improve our living environment. ”
After the meeting, everyone looked preoccupied, and they still didn't wake up from Meng Qingshan's words that transcended the times, when Meng Qingshan was about to leave. Zhou Baozhong remembered that he had forgotten some things when he heard Meng Qingshan's introduction to the Production and Construction Corps, and said: "Commander-in-chief, wait a minute, the aviation personnel we sent to the Soviet Union to study aviation have returned, and a total of 25 flight personnel and 50 ground staff have completed the study. ”
"Are they really back?"
"I'm back."
After Meng Qingshan got in touch with Jiangbei, he selected 75 young students from the army and sent them to Jiangbei to learn how to fly airplanes. In the end, after Meng Qingshan's persuasion, Li Yanping was willing to let these people go, and these people had been gone for half a year, and now they have finally learned something. However, the success rate of one-third is not bad, although it is not as good as the pilots of the Japanese army, but this is also the beginning of the anti-United Nations air force. He said with a smile: "Didn't the political commissar capture a batch of aircraft parts and part of aviation fuel, as well as two complete transport planes and trainer planes, at the Japanese airfield in Yuyuan?" Do you think we are building our own air force on this basis? ”
"Commander-in-Chief. Your idea is good, I agree. But we have two planes in total, isn't it too little? ”
"It's okay, it's okay, everything is difficult at the beginning, with the first plane, there will be a second plane, Lao Zhou will trouble you to go to Jiangbei this time, Comrade Yanping is forming a base area government is inseparable, Deputy Commander Yang and Comrade Yalou are responsible for the task of the reorganization and expansion of the troops, we can only go to you, I don't worry about others going."
"Old Meng, what am I going to do this time?"
"Lao Zhou, you go to the Soviet Union this time to discuss with them, can you let them support some of our skilled workers and buy planes."
"Old Meng, this may be difficult to achieve, you must know that Big Brother has just negotiated with the little devil, and I don't know why the artillery in Jiangbei suddenly attacked the puppet Manchu Jiangshang Army last week, and I want to make a big fuss in the little devil's delegation in Moscow! If we go to ask for help now, I don't think Jiangbei will agree. ”
"I know this, they don't send technicians, but they have a lot of Jews in their concentration camps, you must know that many of these Jews are the people needed in our base area, and once they join our base area, the economy and industry of our base area will be on a higher level."
"But how shall I speak?"
"Lao Zhou, when the time comes, you say that these enemies of the Soviet Union, even if they are imprisoned in concentration camps, are still consuming the precious resources of the great Soviet Union, and are still a destabilizing factor under the socialist system, threatening the security of the great Soviet Union and dragging down a large number of Soviet troops. It's better to hand them all over to us, let them come to Beiman to mine waste and use it, and then we can exchange mineral resources with them for materials, of course, you have to cry poor first, and then exaggerate the number of Japanese army expansion. Meng Qingshan said with a wicked smile.
"Old Meng, you are too cunning."
Unlike Meng Qingshan, who was sullen outside the Guan, the battlefield inside the Guannei was full of battlefields at this time.
In the summer of 1939, the Japanese army concentrated some troops scattered in the Great Wall, North China, and Northeast China, relying on railways, highways and other communication lines, to launch a large-scale sweep of the anti-Japanese forces in North China, and dug ditches and forts in the wasteland to try to hinder the offensive of the anti-Japanese forces, and implemented the "cage policy" of "taking the railway as the pillar, the highway as the chain, and the stronghold as the lock", so as to control and gradually reduce the anti-Japanese forces. The main force of the 109th Division and the 10th, 35th, 36th, and 108th Divisions and the 4th and 9th Brigades of the Independent Mixed Brigade, with a total of more than 50,000 people, commanded by Umezu, commander of the 1st Army of the Japanese Army, swept the Taihang anti-Japanese base area, attempted to find and annihilate the main force of the Eighth Route Army, opened up the main transportation arteries such as Bai (Gui) Jin (Cheng), Handan (Dan) Chang (Zhi), Ping (Ding) Liao (County), controlled major towns, and divided the anti-Japanese base areas, and the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army commanded the 385th of the division. The 386th Brigade and the 344th Brigade of the 115th Division, the Jinyu Detachment, and the 1st and 3rd Columns of the Decisive Death carried out anti-sweeping operations.
After being threatened with dismissal on several occasions, Umezu Yoshijiro had no choice but to abandon the offensive, mobilize troops to encircle the North Manchurian base area, and implement a strict military encirclement and economic blockade to prevent the anti-Japanese alliance from continuing to expand its sphere of influence. This allowed the various departments of the Anti-Japanese Federation to digest the results of the war, reorganize the troops, establish local political power, and organize agricultural production.
