"Of course, once again, we have to talk about the losses of our army, which is that our army lost a total of 24,214 soldiers, 12,567 actually lost troops, and 4,356 were seriously wounded, including 231 officers, and the highest official rank was the colonel and regimental commander. In addition, there were many losses in weapons and equipment, as well as other losses, and after this battle, our army's pre-war reserves and ammunition produced after the outbreak of the war were almost exhausted. According to incomplete statistics, more than 15,000 civilians died directly under the massacre and bombing shelling by the Japanese army, of which 6,000 were caused by the Japanese army's capture of Huairen County. If you fight a war, you have to die, this hard truth should be understood by all of us here, but every number we are talking about now represents a lost life, and life is precious and noble, regardless of whether it is high or low. So I want you to remember a few troops, the 5th Division, the 10th Division, the 6th Division, the 16th Division, and the Yamashita Brigade, and I will be beaten hard when I encounter these Japanese troops in the future, and our concentration camps do not need these Japanese prisoners. ”

Chen Feng talked about the beginning of this battle, and then went to the course of the battle, the results, the losses and the impact caused, and made a comprehensive summary of the battle. After summing up, Chen Feng said the numbers of several elite units of the Japanese army, and he wanted all the officers to have a shot in their hearts to say, what kind of Japanese army can be regarded as a real opponent, and what kind of Japanese army can only be seen as a beast.

After letting all the officers digest the data just mentioned, Chen Fengyou continued: "This battle is over, but we still have a long way to go. After this battle. Presumably, the Nationalist Government and other anti-Japanese forces in the Second War Zone will have to reconsider the relationship with our army, and it can be said that our life will definitely be very good in the next half a year. ”

"In this battle, our army's territory has expanded a lot, yesterday I looked at the two division commanders Li and Xu division commanders, and found that our current territory is about to catch up with Chahar Province before the fall, this is our achievement, from the formation of the army to the present only one year, we have achieved more and more brilliant achievements than those troops that have been in the army for several years or even decades. But pride is allowed, but pride is avoided. The results are not small. However, compared with the Japanese army's population of 100 million and millions of elite soldiers, we are just scratching a handful of hairs from others, and we are still far from achieving a complete and comprehensive victory. So we can't be proud. ”

"Now I'm going to lay out some of the next tasks. The losses of the troops in this battle were not small. Therefore, the next most important thing is to recruit soldiers, that is, to train troops, and to restore combat effectiveness. Only combat effectiveness is guaranteed. Only then can all units continue to create greater achievements, and the 61st Army will not be afraid of any challenge. In addition, the establishment of our army also needs to be adjusted to a certain extent, on the one hand, because we have captured a lot of new weapons and equipment, and we need to add some new arms. On the other hand, this is because we still need to improve the structure of our troops, and some units should be upgraded when they should be upgraded and expanded, and we should not care what other people think, we are an anti-Japanese army, and everything we do must be based on the overall situation of resistance against Japan, and as for the personal likes and dislikes of certain people, they absolutely cannot and will not affect us. Now I have decided that the teaching brigade will be expanded into instructors from now on, and the establishment will be the same as that of the 101st Division, the 222nd Division, and the Seventh Independent Division, with Shi Jianfei as the division commander and Li Deming as the deputy division commander and chief of staff Wang Hansheng as the deputy division commander and chief of staff. Chen Haitao, the former deputy brigade commander of the Xinghe Garrison Brigade, succeeded Wang Hansheng as the commander of the Xinghe Garrison Brigade, and transferred Li Deming to serve as the deputy brigade commander of the Xinghe Garrison Brigade. ”

"The guard regiment of the military headquarters has been expanded into a guard brigade, and the guard brigade has two motorized infantry regiments, an artillery regiment, an air defense regiment, a reconnaissance battalion, and a cavalry battalion, with a total strength of 13,445 people, with Ma Cao as the commander of the guard brigade and Long Jian as the deputy brigade commander and chief of staff."

"The military department has decided to form an armored brigade directly under the 61st Army, and to transfer soldiers and officers who can drive tanks and armored vehicles from all over the army, and now the officers of the armored brigade are uncertain, and Yang Yi, chief of staff, is also the commander of the tank brigade, responsible for all matters related to the formation and training of the tank brigade."

"In addition, the military department has decided to set up an aviation brigade directly under the 61 st Army, and to send young students with knowledge and education from all over the army to train pilots, and I will be personally responsible for the training of the aviation brigade."

In addition, the establishment of special operations divisions has been expanded from the current four special operations brigades to six, with a total of 4,800 people. Xu Bao, commander of the special operations division, is responsible for all matters related to the expansion. ”

"The hoeing team of the intelligence department has been expanded from one brigade to three brigades, and the treatment of the brigade has been promoted from battalion-level cadres to regiment-level cadres, and the specific matters are personally responsible for by Minister Hua."

"A decision was announced, and after the military department of the 61st Army reported to the Ministry of Military Affairs of the Nationalist Government for decision, the deputy army commander Ye Helina, the chief of staff of the army Yang Yi, the commander of the 101st Division Li Wensheng, the commander of the 222nd Division Li Yifeng, the commander of the 7th Independent Division Xu Hu, and the deputy commander-in-chief of the cavalry group Andrei were promoted to lieutenant generals. Instructor Shi Jianfei, deputy division commander Wang Hansheng, special operations division commander Xu Bao, deputy division commander Chen Tiebao, 101st Division deputy division commander Li Bin, division chief of staff Hu Tiesheng, deputy division commander Xu Fufu, division chief of staff Zhang Zhigang, deputy division commander Li Jianhua, division chief of staff Zhou Haisheng, Xinghe garrison brigade commander Chen Haitao, Jining garrison brigade commander Lin Yong, Taolin garrison brigade commander Zhang Jingjun, air defense brigade commander Victor, military intelligence director Hua Rong, cavalry group chief of staff Bo Bosha, logistics minister Sui Jinguang are major generals of the National Revolutionary Army. In addition, Xu Bao, commander of the special operations division, enjoys the treatment of a lieutenant general. Then Chen Feng said: "This batch of promotion lists has been reported to the Ministry of Military Affairs of the National Government, and I think there will be a reply soon." In addition, now that the battle is over, all units should also do a good job of rewarding meritorious personnel, and those who should be promoted to military rank will be promoted to military ranks, and those who should be promoted will be promoted, and we will reward those who should be rewarded, not only material rewards, but also spiritual rewards, and the same as the big red flower should be given, and propaganda should be carried out throughout the army. ”

As soon as Chen Feng finished speaking, the entire conference room was completely fried, this was the first official promotion of the 61st Army since its formation, and the 61st Army was mainly divided into ranks by the level of the position. There are only a few officers who have officially filed with the Nationalist Government and recognized their military ranks, so all the officers of the 61st Army have always not worn the uniforms issued by the Nationalist Government on any other occasion unless they are on official occasions, let alone the ranks of the Nationalist Government.

If you don't wear it, you can't wear it, but it's still a good thing to have a military rank officially recognized by the national government, which indicates that a soldier can officially be called a general on any occasion.

Seeing these officers discussing happily one by one, Chen Feng's mood also became very happy. After more than ten minutes, Chen Feng continued: "The last order is that the military department has decided to hold a military parade in Datong in three months, and each brigade must send an infantry regiment to participate in the parade. ”

"Yes"

"That's pretty much what should be said, do you have anything else to say?" Chen Feng continued to ask.

"Junza, everyone was busy fighting a while ago, and there were many things that we didn't have time to deal with, and now that the war is over, some things must be dealt with immediately." Li Wensheng got up and said.

"Well, what's going on?" Chen Feng asked.

"The most important and urgent thing is how to deal with Xue Quai's illness and the more than 100 officers who graduated from the Central Military Academy, the Ministry of Military Affairs of the Nationalist Government and the Department of the Governors of the Second War Zone have sent telegrams to intercede for these people many times, and a major general in the chamberlain even came to Datong secretly to discuss this matter with our army. In addition, the Governor's Department of the Second War Zone even sent several high-ranking officials who were good friends with the old man to visit the old man in Xinghe and let the old man intercede, so how to deal with these people was also decided by the military seat himself. Li Wensheng said.

"The old man didn't tell me about it, well, but this matter really can't be delayed, it must be dealt with immediately, and it will be more troublesome to drag it out. For Xue Quai's disregard for the overall situation of the Anti-Japanese War, gathering crowds to mutiny, and being suspected of seizing power, disobeying orders, delaying fighter planes, and defecting to the enemy, and causing extremely serious consequences, it can be said that more than 6,000 soldiers and civilians in Huairen County died because of him, so this kind of person is unforgivable, and he is still executed on the spot according to the previous decision. As for the more than 100 officers, it is not easy for the state to train them, and they will not be held accountable, whether actively or passively. However, these people are not uncommon in our 61st Army, and all of them have been returned to the Ministry of Military Affairs, and we will no longer care whether they will be beaten, scolded, or not prosecuted. We do not discriminate against units and officers who are transferred from the Central Army's combat sequence, and all officers and men are treated equally in terms of political treatment, economic subsidies, or promotions. Do you have any other opinions? Chen Feng said.

"Junzuo, in fact, you should understand that there is actually only Xue Qubing in the eyes of the commissioner, as for whether the others are alive or dead, the commissioner and other high-level officials will not care, I am worried that you will attract the dissatisfaction of the commissioner by doing this, please think twice before acting." Shi Jianfei said loudly.

"Dissatisfied? They even mutinied and seized power, and even took hostages, am I afraid of arousing their dissatisfaction? Jian Fei, I and the Nationalist Government were not on the same line in the first place, and the reason why I still obeyed the orders of the Nationalist Government was just to protect the overall situation of the Anti-Japanese War. This army, including the vast majority of people here, was brought in by me one by one, and the weapons and equipment used by the troops and the food and salary paid to the soldiers were all paid by our Chen family's family, so in the eyes of the Nationalist Government, the Second War Zone, and even other anti-Japanese forces, the 61st Army was actually my Chen's private army, so no matter what I did, the result would be the same. Although I don't want to be a warlord and I don't want to be China. A stumbling block to reunification, but in order to resist Japan, to achieve my life goals, and to the happiness of more people, I must move forward bravely. Therefore, Xue Qu must die of illness, as for what the national government thinks, I won't care, and I hope you don't care. Chen Feng said loudly. (To be continued......)
