Hu Weidong had already expected Zhang Hao's promotion, after all, his contribution qualifications were placed there, even if he became a member of the Politburo Standing Committee, it was reasonable, but the Central Committee actually decided to upgrade the Red Eighth Army to the Red Third Front Army, and let Hu Weidong be the commander-in-chief, and also added him as an alternate member of the Politburo of the Central Committee, which made him a little surprised. Although the current strength of the Red Eighth Army is not inferior to any front army, Hu Weidong's qualifications are too shallow after all, you must know that even those internationalists who have risen to high positions when they first arrived in the Soviet area are at least old party members, and Hu Weidong has been in the party for less than a year and a half

Hu Weidong wanted to resign, but Zhang Hao specially talked to him and asked him to take over this heavy burden, because only by getting greater power can he better work for the party and the people, and after Hu Weidong became the commander-in-chief of the front army, the issues related to him need to go through the Central Plains Bureau or the central committee's resolution. And if it's just a corps leader, as long as they find an opportunity to start, they can completely cut it first. In addition, the Central Plains Soviet Region was strong and in the midst of four wars, and the acquisition of arbitrary power was also conducive to dealing with the threat of external hostility and all kinds of sudden changes

Promotion is at least not a bad thing, since Zhang Hao said so, Hu Weidong did not shirk again, to be honest, he actually has a faint pride in his heart, it only took less than 20 months after crossing to change from a white body to a one-sided general, even in YY novels, it is a pretty good result, despite the hardships Hu Weidong still has palpitations every time he thinks about it, if he really gives him a more haode foundation. Maybe he didn't have such courage, and the current miracle would not have happened.

than promotion. What Hu Weidong is more concerned about is that in fact, the Red 28th Army and the Dabie Mountain Base Area can finally be directly managed, and it is not that he does not trust Gao Jingting, but after decentralizing autonomy for a long time, it is inevitable that various problems such as mountaineering will inevitably appear. In addition, taking into account the large number of casualties suffered by the 15 th Red Army in the course of its operations in North China and the further development of the Red 28 th Army during this period, the establishment of the Red Third Front Army also had to be adjusted after its establishment

Soon, Zhang Hao, in his capacity as secretary of the Central Plains Bureau, announced the redivision of the Red Third Front Army, and the Red 15th Army inherited the number of the original Red Eighth Army Corps, and subordinated the Red 38th Army reorganized with the independent division as the main body and the Red 40th Army reorganized with the Advance Division as the main body; The Red 28th Army was upgraded to the Red 28th Army. It has jurisdiction over the Red 82nd Army, which was reorganized from the Red 42nd Division, and the Red 45th Army, which was formed by the merger of the Mountain Division and the Red 74th Division; The instructor gives more prominence to the word "teaching". The number of infantry has been greatly reduced, and the total strength has been sharply reduced from about 30,000 to more than 10,000, which is directly under the jurisdiction of the General Headquarters of the Red Third Front Army

In the course of fighting in North China, Hu Weidong realized that he was fighting with devils who had air superiority. Too many troops are not only not an advantage, but are not conducive to rapid deployment, still less conducive to avoiding the Japanese army's aerial reconnaissance, and at the same time, they are also the best targets for the devil's aircraft and artillery, and at present the primary task of the Central Plains Soviet Region is to mobilize and organize the masses and suppress the bandits, so in a certain sense, the local troops and militia are even more important than the field troops. For this reason, Hu Weidong proposed to reduce the number of field troops that had been completely out of production, on the one hand to reduce the burden on the masses in the base areas, and on the other hand, to allocate the laid-off personnel to the localities to strengthen the strength of the garrison forces and the building of militia organizations. This plan was strongly supported by Zhang Hao, and the great man was also greatly praised for being in line with his own idea of "people's war". …,

Hu Weidong estimated that after the adaptation was completed. The strength of the four armies of the Red Third Front Army will be between 25,000 and 28,000, and the total strength of the field troops will be about 120,000 people, while at the same time, the number of local troops in the Central Plains Soviet Region can soar to more than 150,000, and the number of semi-full-time basic militia will exceed 200,000. It can exceed 2 million people (although it will take 1-2 years to complete the militia system). Although the combat effectiveness of the local troops and militia could not be compared with the elite field units of the Red Army, they provided them with a steady stream of supplementary soldiers and trained a large number of military talents

In particular, after the Red 15 th Army advanced into North China to annihilate the Japanese invaders and became a heroic unit in the eyes of the Chinese at home and abroad, the Central Plains Soviet Region was able to attract even more talents, in addition to those university teachers and students who had originally joined the army in North China, as well as the important talents specially invited by Hu Weidong himself, many people rushed to Luoyang despite the difficulties and dangers on the road. Many of them even returned from overseas, such as Guo Dongcai, a graduate student of the Internal Combustion Engine Research Laboratory of Tokyo Institute of Technology in Japan, Zhang Huaqing, a doctor of metallurgy who studied in the United Kingdom, Cheng Mingsheng, a graduate of the Department of Electrical Engineering of Waseda University in Japan, and Lu Da of the Department of Steel of the Technical University of Berlin, Germany. After hearing about the anti-Japanese prestige of the Red 15th Army and the antibacterial effect of penicillin, he still interrupted his visit and study and resolutely returned to China to vote for Huang Minglong, the father of medicinal chemistry in New China

Huang Minglong's most famous scientific achievement in history is the accidental discovery and summary of the "Huang Minglong reduction method", but for New China, his contribution to applied chemistry, especially medicinal chemistry, is much more important, among which the localization of steroid hormone drugs in New China is almost solved by Huang Minglong by himself. It is also Huang Minglong's talent and talent in medicinal chemical synthesis (your support on this site is my biggest motivation. )
