The next night, when Liu Hua and Luo Ronghuan entered the conference room under the leadership of the security personnel. Several central chiefs are already sitting in their places. At this moment, the whole room was filled with the smell of cigarettes and entered the conference room, and after getting the approval of the chairman and others, the two of them still sat in the corner, and the Politburo meeting a few days ago was in the position where they had sit..."Comrade Liu Hua, Comrade Luo Ronghuan, I will leave you in Yan'an, and the specific reason for letting you attend the Politburo meeting today, I will not say, and you also know it, that is, the specific plan for the Reading Force Division to send troops to the northeast. First of all, I would like to announce to you an important appointment. Commander-in-chief, you can announce to the two of them the order of the Central Military Commission that has just been passed by the Politburo meeting..."Glancing at the two people sitting in the corner, without saying a word, the chairman took a deep breath of cigarette and said to the commander-in-chief beside him..."Well, this good man, let me be the one when I see the sky." Comrade Liu Hua and Comrade Luo Ronghuan, I will announce to the two of you the order of the Central Military Commission that in order to expand the base areas controlled by our army and continue to crack down on the aggressors, it has been decided at the Politburo meeting to form the Northeast Field Army in our Eighth Route Army. Comrade Liu Hua served as the first commander of the Northeast Special Operations Army, and Comrade Luo Ronghuan served as the first political commissar of the Northeast Field Army. The first deputy commander of the Northeast Field Army is Comrade Yang Jingyu, the current commander-in-chief of the First Route Army of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance, the first chief of staff of the Northeast Field Army is Comrade Li Qing, the former chief of staff of the Reading Division, and the first director of the Political Department of the Northeast Field Army is Comrade Peng Zhen. The commander-in-chief took out an order, stood up from his seat, and ordered the two of them with a serious face..."Comrade Liu Hua, Comrade Luo Ronghuan, do you two have any different opinions on the resolution of the Party Central Committee, why don't you say a word..."Seeing the two people standing in front of him, after listening to the personnel order he had just announced, he couldn't help but open his mouth and fell into shock. The commander-in-chief said with a smile on his face..."Ah, no, commander-in-chief, leaders, Liu Hua is here to assure you that you will not disappoint the expectations of all of you and lead the Northeast Field Army." In the northeast region, we will create a new situation for our party....Please rest assured that all leaders..."Liu Hua, who reacted, hurriedly said. At the same time, he dragged Luo Ronghuan, the political commissar next to him who still hadn't reacted from the shock, with his hand.

"Thank you leaders for your trust, I will definitely assist Comrade Liu Hua and lead the Northeast Field Army well, please rest assured..."

"Comrade Liu Hua and Comrade Luo Ronghuan, because of your close cooperation in the combat life of the Shanxi Military Region for several years, the Party Central Committee has seen the development of the Shanxi Military Region and the Reading Division so well. Therefore, a few of our old guys believe that the two of you will be able to make a better performance in your new position. The chairman stood up and looked at the two people in front of him with surprised and shocked expressions and said.

"Yes, Chairman, we promise to complete the task and live up to the trust placed in us by the Party Central Committee...."Facing the sincere and trusting gaze of the chairman, the two replied in unison while being moved.

"Very well, we believe in you. In this way, both of you sit down, the order has now been read, and the two of you will officially become the No. 1 and No. 2 commanders of our army's newly established Northeast Field Army from now on. Therefore, in the next meeting, it will be about the specific matters of this newly established Northeast Field Army, so the two of you, as the supreme commanders of this army, must speak more...."The chairman nodded with a smile, returned to his seat and said..."Comrade Liu Hua, do you know why, at the enlarged meeting of the Politburo a few days ago, after you were elected as an alternate member of the Central Committee, several members of our Politburo Standing Committee had to nominate you for co-optation as an alternate member of the Politburo. Does it make you jump straight into the center? "Seeing that several people were back in their seats, the whole meeting went on. Sitting in his seat, Vice Chairman Zhou, who had not spoken, said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Please advise the chief..."Regarding Vice Chairman Zhou's question, Liu Hua shook his head and said. Although he has been successfully elected as an alternate member of the Politburo, to a certain extent, he has become a central leader. However, for the central government's sudden and shocking nomination, he has not figured out the specific reason..."Actually, the reason is very simple. Ever since our army began its Long March from the Central Soviet Area, we have lost contact with the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance. The Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, so far, has been under the direct leadership of the South Manchurian Provincial Party Committee. They have lost the care of the Party Central Committee for too long, and today, we are marching into the Northeast, and we will see that they will return to the embrace of the Party Central Committee. Therefore, only by allowing a commander who can represent the Party Central Committee to lead the troops can the comrades of the Anti-Japanese Federation feel that the Party Central Committee attaches great importance to them and shows concern and concern for them. And you, in any respect, are the best candidate for the commander of the newly formed Northeast Field Army. However, you are only an alternate member of the Central Committee, and you obviously cannot represent the Party Central Committee. Therefore, in order to increase your weight in the party, several of us have taken great pressure to nominate you as an alternate member of the Politburo and let you enter the Central Committee ahead of schedule... Now, you should understand the hard work of our old guys..."Vice Chairman Zhou replied thoughtfully, "Chief, don't worry. As long as the Northeast Field Army successfully enters the Northeast and joins the Anti-Japanese Federation. I will definitely bring the care of the Party Central Committee to the Anti-Japanese Federation, so that the comrades of the Anti-Japanese Federation can feel the concern of the Party Central Committee. At the same time, unite the comrades of the Anti-Japanese Federation, unite as one, and deal with the little devil Kwantung Army together. In the three eastern provinces, a new situation of resistance has been opened..."At this moment, after listening to Vice Chairman Zhou's explanation, even a fool can understand the specific and profound meaning of his sudden co-optation as an alternate member of the Politburo. Under the gaze of several leaders, thinking of Liu Hua, who was the key among them, he did not hesitate and assured loudly.

"Well, that's a good point, after the successful rendezvous with the Anti-Japanese Federation, we must not only bring the Party Central Committee's care for them. At the same time, it is also necessary to unite the comrades of the Anti-Japanese Federation. It should be clear to everyone that most of the current commanders and fighters of our army are from North China, and they can be said to be like a blind man when it comes to the terrain of the three eastern provinces and all kinds of bad weather. The commanders and fighters of the Anti-Japanese Federation are well aware of the topography and various climates of the three eastern provinces. As long as the two armies are truly united and help each other, they will be able to truly create a new situation in the rear of the army..." As for Liu Hua in front of him, after a little appropriation, he will understand the profound meaning of the party Central Committee. The corners of the chairman's mouth immediately showed a hint of a smile, and he said loudly.

"Yes, Chairman, I promise to complete the task..."Affirmed by the chairman, Liu Hua continued..."Very good, this matter is decided. Next, let's discuss in detail the specific scale and strength of the newly established Northeast Field Army. Comrade Liu Hua, Comrade Luo Ronghuan, you are the commander and political commissar of the Shanxi Military Region, and the theme of the Northeast Field Army will also be directly adapted from the main force of the Reading Division. So, the two of you, first talk about what you think in your heart? Let's refer to a few old guys...."At the sound of the chairman's order, the whole meeting immediately moved to the real topic, and began to discuss the specific establishment of the Northeast Field Army and the distribution of personnel... As the first commander, Liu Hua did not answer immediately after listening to the chairman's question, but quietly fell into thinking. At the same time, several central leaders attending the meeting also stared at Liu Hua in the corner motionlessly, waiting for Liu Hua's answer... Finally, under the expectant gaze of several people, Liu Hua raised his head and was about to speak..."Report chairman, leaders. I mean, the entire Northeast Field Army has formed a total of four field columns, a special forces column, a special operations brigade, a guard brigade directly under the field army headquarters, a field hospital, a logistics office, and finally the Northeast Field Army headquarters. Among the four field columns, nine main regiments, an artillery regiment, a cavalry regiment, and an engineer battalion were each transferred from the three military subdivisions under the Shanxi Military Region, and the remaining field column was formed by the column directly under the original military region. In addition, the special forces column consists of an armored brigade, a heavy artillery brigade, a cavalry brigade, an engineer brigade and an air defense brigade, making a total of five brigades. As for the field hospital, the logistics department, and the field army headquarters are to be separated from the various departments under the Shanxi Military Region and set up...."Liu Hua opened his mouth and said..."What a big stroke, according to the current establishment of your reading division, the number of each main force regiment is almost 2,000 people, so that if you calculate it, there are 20,000 people in one field column, and then the total number of the four field columns is a full 80,000 people. Plus the appearance of fifteen thousand people in the special forces column. And the logistics department, the field hospital, your special operations brigade, all the troops combined. Scattered mulberry, a whole army of 100,000... Hehe, Lao Mao, a whole 100,000 elite army..."The commander-in-chief snapped his fingers and exclaimed at the several central leaders in front of him.

"Well, although there are a full 100,000 troops, it is not too much for the current strength of the Shanxi Military Region, and I completely agree with Comrade Liu Hua's thoughts. However, Comrade Liu Hua, with so much heavy equipment in the heavy artillery brigade and armored brigade of your special forces column, how do you plan to transport it through the heavy blockade lines of the Chinese army to the current base area of the Anti-Japanese Federation..."The chairman showed a questioning look on his face, and then asked rhetorically..."Report chairman, chiefs, although you are asking for the formation of a special forces column. However, I didn't have the idea of carrying these heavy gears. My idea is that all the heavy equipment of the military district will be handed over after the central authorities enter Taiyuan, and the central authorities will form artillery and armored units directly under the central authorities. As for the special forces column of the Northeast Field Army, as long as there are people, there are those in the hands of the Kwantung Army, who are equipped with little devils. In addition, I would like to ask the heads of several for approval to lend me a few pilots. In the units of the Kwantung Army, in order to guard against the Soviet Union, a large number of combat aircraft were deployed in the northeast. If we are lucky, we may be able to capture a lot of planes and form an air force unit of the Northeast Field Army..."Liu Hua explained with a serious face.

"Good spirit, no guns, no cannons, the enemy made us. Comrade Liu Hua, since you have confidence, then I [***] have no words and support you absolutely and unconditionally. In addition, I would like to tell you the good news: according to the latest news from our intelligence officers, the current anti-United Nations armed forces, under the leadership of Comrade Yang Jingyu, have also grown to a scale of more than 20,000 people. Therefore, when the time comes, the Northeast Field Army will really enter the Northeast and join forces with the Anti-Japanese Federation, and there will once again be one more field column. According to the decision of the Central Committee, the Fifth Column of the Northeast Field Army was formed, with Comrade Zhou Baozhong of the Anti-Japanese Federation as the commander and Comrade Cui Shiquan as the political commissar of the column. Therefore, by then, the total strength of your Northeast Field Army will reach more than 120,000 people...."The chairman nodded happily and said to Liu Hua in front of him.

"Thank you, Chair, thank you, Chiefs. With tens of thousands of local fighters of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, our future development in the Northeast will definitely be more rapid. I believe that one day, the entire northeast region will become the world of our people and another big rear base controlled by our party..."Liu Hua replied with a look of longing while being excited..."Well said, turning the three northeastern provinces into another solid rear base of our party, just like Shanxi. I believe that Comrade Liu Hua will certainly live up to our expectations and achieve this ultimate goal. Regarding the longing that Liu Hua just said, the faces of the other leaders immediately showed excited looks. You know, if you can really achieve this goal. At that time, our party will directly control the three eastern provinces, plus the vast North China Plain. After driving out Xiao Yueben and winning the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, our party will have enough strength to compete with Chiang Kai-shek, who is far away in Chongqing... After all, to be able to enter the Politburo, several leaders have a very vicious strategic vision in any aspect. They believe that the anti-Japanese united front is only temporary for China at present. The Kuomintang and the Communist Party have accumulated grievances for more than 10 years, and it is impossible for these more than 10 years of blood debts to be forgotten in this way. In addition, it is impossible for two ruling parties to appear at the same time in one China, that is to say, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, at some time in the future, sooner or later there will be a war....

Thinking of this, and then thinking of the goal of controlling the three eastern provinces and developing the three eastern provinces that Liu Hua just said, which was almost as distant as a dream, every member of the Standing Committee showed a look of excitement on their faces, and they couldn't help but applaud. However, the chairman was not carried away by this dream, and when he saw the excited people around him, the chairman reminded in a low voice: "Comrade Liu Hua, you have such an idea and appetite, and several of us are very happy. But what I want to tell you is that the Yue army has nearly one million elite Kwantung Army troops in the three eastern provinces, plus a large number of puppet army troops, and the total strength is more than dozens of times that of yours. More importantly, they have an absolute advantage over the current Nu in terms of resources, weapons, strategic materials, etc. Therefore, I would like to remind you that under the current circumstances, the first priority of our Northeast Field Army is to develop steadily and slowly accumulate its own strength. In any case, we should not fight hard with the army, after all, our Northeast Field Army has only a few hundred thousand people, and it cannot withstand any great attrition..." "Chairman, you can rest assured, I have remembered, at this stage, we must not fight hard with the little devil Kwantung Army, and in accordance with our army's operational policy, while preserving the vital forces, we will kill and injure a large number of the living forces of the Japanese army, expand the base areas, and develop the base areas. Only when we have a sufficient foundation can we have a battle with the Yue army..."Liu Hua said.

"Yes, it's good to be clear. In addition, Comrade Liu Hua, you are now an alternate member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, and on the one hand, you are also a leader of the CPC Central Committee, and in the future, you will be the successor of these old fellows. Therefore, in the Northeast Field Army, after entering the Northeast, you represent the Party Central Committee. In many issues and decisions, you don't need to ask us for instructions on everything, you just need to make your own decisions based on the specific situation. In this regard, I hope that Comrade Luo Ronghuan will cooperate. After all, you are in the midst of the million-strong army of the Kwantung Army, and an accident may lead to the annihilation of the entire army, and we must be cautious..."The chairman continued..."Yes, Comrade Liu Hua, what the chairman just said can be summed up in only a few words, and after entering the northeast, you will represent the party Central Committee and have the right to independently develop and expand the army, and according to the actual situation, you have the right to veto the orders of the central authorities. So, I hope you don't live up to the expectations of all of us, and in a few years, let us see the three eastern provinces being recovered by our Northeast Field Army..."Vice Chairman Zhou followed closely behind the chairman and said, "Ah... Chairman, however, in that case... As a [***] member, I also have no rights....? Hearing the words of Vice Chairman Zhou in front of him, Liu Hua was shocked and quickly refused. After all, if such an order is accepted, it means that in the future Northeast Field Army, the military and political power will be integrated, and the power of life and death, personnel power, and decision-making power of the entire Northeast Field Army will all be concentrated on his own person. Faced with such a burden, which is related to the safety of the lives of hundreds of thousands of troops, Liu Hua couldn't help but feel shocked...
