Listening to the introduction of the commander-in-chief, Meng Qingshan's brows furrowed deeply. After being silent for a long time, Meng Qingshan said: "Commander-in-chief, to put it mildly, all the people of our Anti-Japanese Federation now are not as good as a division in Guannei, and if they are dispersed like this, they will be broken by the Japanese army." ”

"There was a big gap between our strength and the Japanese puppet army, and the main forces of the anti-Japanese alliance in the three eastern provinces were divided by the Japanese army's railways. If we had beaten someone with a fist, the result would have been much better. ”

Regarding Meng Qingshan's thoughts, the commander-in-chief shook his head and said, "How can we not know what you said. It is always more powerful to beat someone with a fist than to slap someone, but with the concentration of troops, we simply cannot solve the problem of provisions. ”

"Ever since the devils began to merge their households, we have fallen into passivity. Every grain of grain and every bullet had to be exchanged for blood, and the little devils concentrated all the grain in the county town, and only distributed food to the pioneer regiment every week, and the troops did not fight the pioneer regiment, and they got a lot of ammunition, but the grain obtained was only a few hundred catties. In this way, it seems that not to mention the concentration of large troops, even when there are many small troops, they must be half hungry and half full. ”

"When a large army is concentrated, let alone fighting, even if you are hungry, you will die of hunger. Besides, there is too much difference between the combat effectiveness of our troops and the devils, and they are not their opponents at all. Together, they can only be wiped out by them faster. Avoiding the enemy's edge can only be our best and only choice. ”

Meng Qingshan nodded and said, "Yes." The devil's return to the tun and merge the household is very vicious. The fortified wall was supposed to be our means of dealing with them, but now they are being used against us in turn. We have a fish-water relationship with the people, and if we are fish, then the people are water. Fish can't live without water. ”

"Commander-in-chief, I don't understand, when the devils carried out the return to the tun and the households, why did we honestly let the devils drive the people into the cluster tribes, and didn't want to destroy them? We're in a predicament. ”

Regarding Meng Qingshan's question, the commander-in-chief could only smile and shake his head, but he couldn't answer it. This is a decision made by Moscow, and how can he, who has a strong party spirit, oppose it?

Meng Qingshan saw the appearance of the commander-in-chief and understood, this must have been done by those mischievous people in the Soviet Union, leaving a mess, they patted their butts and returned to China to fight for power and profit, but they didn't know how much loss their mistakes had brought to the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, and it was the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation that gradually changed from a prosperous army to a guerrilla hiding in the mountains.

If the Anti-Japanese Federation had decisively attacked the Japanese army at the beginning, it would not have faced today's situation, and the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation was victimized by the poisonous plan of the Japanese puppet "returning to the tun and merging the villages" and was separated from the people, and its current situation can be imagined. Although Meng Qingshan has also heard many moving stories of ordinary people risking their lives to bring food to the anti-Japanese alliance. But after all, it is impossible for an army to survive entirely on the lofty ideological consciousness of the common people. Just like four years later, the Jianghuai Japanese puppet suffered from the coming and going of the New Fourth Army without a trace, so they decided to "clean up the township", make a complete count of the household registration of each occupied area, and spent a lot of effort to transport more than 5 million moso bamboo from the south of the Yangtze River to build a fence to fence off the village, imitating the group tribes in the northeast. In July, the New Fourth Army made a decisive attack and took advantage of the gap between the Japanese and the puppet to collect and burn all the fences; The Japanese puppet registered the household registration with the front foot, and the New Fourth Army rushed to burn the account book with the back foot, making the Japanese puppet work in vain, and wanted to cry without tears.

How can there be such a big difference between the troops that are also led by **! But fortunately, the people in Moscow have already gone to the scourge of Kannai.

After hesitating for a moment, Meng Qingshan said: "Commander-in-chief, I suggest that we should unite the three armies and unify the command, and select excellent fighters among them to form the main force of our anti-Japanese alliance, and the rest of the people who can fight can be formed into left-behind troops, and if they can't fight, we can arrange to open up wasteland and farm land in the rear of the base area to solve our food crisis, so that we can better fight in this difficult period, as for the troops hiding in the mountains in various places to form guerrilla units on the spot to cooperate with the main force, What do you think of their formation, according to the commander-in-chief, the "detachment-brigade-squadron-squad" plan you said earlier? ”

"Why did Comrade Qingshan let them stay where they were to fight guerrillas instead of retreating to the Soviet Union to recuperate?" Li Zhaolin, commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army, asked.

Meng Qingshan looked up and found that there were a lot of people in his house, and he just didn't care about discussing with the commander-in-chief just now and didn't find anyone coming in. Just who is this questioner?

Seeing Meng Qingshan's somewhat puzzled look, Li Zhaolin opened his mouth and said: "Comrade Qingshan doesn't know me yet, I am Li Zhaolin, the commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army, and this is our political commissar Feng Zhongyun, and we arrived at the base with the commander-in-chief. ”

It's a pity that the First Army is too far away from here to come, and Meng Qingshan is too clear about the outcome of the retreat of the Anti-Japanese Union into the Soviet Union. The result is almost equal to permanent loss. Those anti-union soldiers did not sacrifice on the battlefield to kill the enemy, but they were made alive by the big brother in their hearts, and they did not see their bodies. The ending of the three armies and the six armies made him unforgettable. And there dare to let the troops withdraw from the territory of the USSR for rest? Unless someone like the commander-in-chief leads the team, but even so, Chai Shirong, the commander of the Seventh Army, was still arrested by the Soviet Union and did not know where to go, so Meng Qingshan would rather let the anti-United Nations fighters continue to stay in the dangerous area to fight guerrillas, and did not dare to let them go to the Soviet Union.

After a moment of silence, he said: "Even if the troops are allowed to retreat into the territory of the Soviet Union, we must send competent cadres, and we must keep the troops firmly in our hands. We must not let them consume us little by little. That would be counterproductive, but ordinary cadres will definitely not be able to do it, and they can only be done by people like the commander-in-chief and Commander Li, otherwise there will be a tragic incident of the cavalry division. ”

After hearing Meng Qingshan's words, the people in the room fell silent, because they all knew that what Meng Qingshan said was the truth, and they also knew that it was dangerous to retreat to the Soviet Union, and if it wasn't for the Japanese army pressing too quickly and tightly, they wouldn't have been able to risk retreating to the Soviet Union.

Meng Qingshan hated the Soviet Union the most, not only invaded our territory but also split Mongolia, after repelling the Kwantung Army after 1945, he also exchanged steel for guns with our party, and took away a large amount of materials when he retreated, and encouraged the Korean people in the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation to form a political party.
