Chapter 16 Unifying Thinking

After Hu Weidong confessed the truth, some party members and cadres in the army immediately persuaded him to join the party, and Hu Weidong almost agreed immediately, but after careful consideration, in order to prevent Wang Ming's left-leaning ideology, which is still very prevalent, from hindering him, Hu Weidong decided that it would not be too late to contact the central authorities in the future before mentioning the matter of joining the party

Since at the beginning of the Long March, the Muscovites who were in power may have tried their best to retain those comrades who supported the correct line of the great man for the sake of "purifying the ranks," the proportion of Muscovites among the Red Army guerrillas who remained in the Central Soviet District to persist in fighting was much lower than that of the Red Army on the Long March. In addition, Hu Weidong paid attention to screening when he accepted party members and the old Red Army, so although there were already many party members in the militia regiment, the Moscow faction, which had the greatest influence, did not have much shili, and the correct thinking of the great man became more and more deeply rooted in the hearts of Hu Weidong's army

However, considering that the militia regiment is mixed internally, especially the main regiment in which most of the soldiers come from converted prisoners of war, there are still problems with the cohesion of the army after all. In order to enhance the cohesion of the whole army, Hu Weidong decided to unify the army's thinking first (Note 1), his magic weapon is one of the traditions of the People's Liberation Army in later generations, "singing", haode military songs can not only imperceptibly unify everyone's thoughts, but also can boost morale and military morale, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone, for this reason he shamelessly plagiarized the future PLA military song "Our team to the sun", as soon as it came out, because some lyrics that did not seem to be suitable caused a lot of controversy among cadres, But the militia at the grassroots level loved it, and Hu Weidong took the opportunity to transfer potential opponents from the army and strengthen his control over the militia.

Soon, Hu Weidong repeated his old tricks and changed the extremely sacred "Internationale" in the hearts of many party members (the original version was still used on important occasions, and the revision was to facilitate singing. The lyrics and scores adapted by the Tang Dynasty band were replaced on the grounds that the lyrics of the original version of "The Internationale" contain many words and phrases from European cultural backgrounds, which most Red Army soldiers could not understand at all, and the lyrics were too long to remember, and the original tune was more solemn than the lack of enthusiasm, far less exhilarating than the modified rock style, and it was obvious that the latter could stimulate the revolutionary enthusiasm of the youth

This time, there was a lesson from the past, the number of opponents was much smaller, and almost ninety percent of the Red Army soldiers liked Hu Weidong's revised version more, and there were even many people who sang and sang and resonated, remembering their previous experiences and crying bitterly. Seeing that the consensus of the people could not be opposed, those who dissented had to retract their opinions, and Hu Weidong's prestige was further enhanced

With this foundation, Hu Weidong was finally able to take the lead in correcting the various left-leaning mistakes made by the Red Army in the past in his troops. and the way of "criticism and self-criticism", but he tried his best to guard against the mistakes made in the process, and even for those who refused to admit their mistakes, Hu Weidong generally only drove them out of the ranks. This may not be so safe, but it has protected and attracted a large number of talents, and has become a strong driving force for the development of troops and base areas.

In fact, he also knew that although many unjust cases were caused in history, in such a bad environment at that time, these political movements were necessary, otherwise the internal collapse of the ranks would not have to be attacked by the enemy, and the mistake was not the movement itself, but the way. However, because Hu Weidong has historical lessons to refer to, and he is almost self-made, he can specially select those who have not been badly influenced to do this kind of work, supplemented by strict institutional constraints, and divide the three major powers of examination, interrogation (including detention), and judgment into the three departments of the political trial department, the torture department, and the military court, so the effect is immediate. After this two-pronged approach, the erroneous mode of struggle of "brutal struggle and ruthless attack" formed under the influence of Stalinism was finally corrected as soon as possible, and provided a very good reference for the subsequent party-wide rectification. …,

In the course of the study activities, the thinking of the commanders and fighters of the whole army has been unified, and a large number of advanced elements have emerged, who have actively reformed their subjective skills in accordance with the teachings of the great man's thinking, and have grown into politically qualified, military-competent, and open-minded people's fighters, and the combat effectiveness of the whole army has also been raised to a higher level.

Although the national army's operator stationed in Xingguo County became a prisoner before he could report the news of the fall of Xingguo because of the rapid surrender, the delay in the delivery of supplies from the southern Gannan front still attracted the attention of Luo Zhuoying, deputy commander of the 18th Army of the Nationalist Army, who actually acted as the commander-in-chief of the third road of the North Road to "suppress bandits".

He quickly called the security brigade headquarters in Xingguo County, but although the other end of the phone replied that the supplies would be sent immediately, when Luo Zhuoying asked the security brigade commander to answer the phone, the other party was unable to say clearly. Luo Zhuoying suddenly realized that something was wrong, and he immediately ordered the Ganzhou garrison adjacent to Xingguo to immediately send someone to Xingguo to find out what was going on

Speaking of which, Luo Zhuoying is too big, thinking that the main force of the Red Army's Jiangxi troops has been defeated, and the remnants have been compressed into the narrow areas of Dayu County, Ruijin County and other counties, and Xingguo County, which has basically become the rear of the national army, should no longer have any decent "red bandits", so only one security brigade was left to garrison, plus a Biedong detachment sent by Kangze, with a total strength of nearly 5,000 people, thinking that it was enough to deal with ordinary bandits and small Red Army guerrillas from neighboring counties. turned out to be the wrong person, and Hu Weidong pulled up a team out of nothing after crossing into this time and space, just taking advantage of the weakness to enter and laugh at all the large amount of materials accumulated by the national army in Xingguo County, Luo Zhuoying's luck is really weak

Note 1: In the traditional concept, the army should not have its own ideas, because politicians and the ruling class only need the army to be their violent machine to maintain their rule, but the people's army is different, since the "Sanwan reorganization" (everyone generally only knows that "the party commands the gun" and "the branch is built on the company", but I personally think that from a military point of view, the greater impact is actually "the army and the people", "the equality of officers and soldiers", "preferential treatment of prisoners" and military democracy, such as the establishment of soldiers' committees. From the beginning, they became a new type of army that has never been seen before in the history of mankind. It is precisely because the people's army has its own thinking that it can become the army with the most flexible tactics and the strongest learning ability in the history of Shijie, and can it constantly learn war in war, and the army is getting stronger and stronger, and it is the mainstay in disaster relief, which can be called a strong pillar for protecting the fundamental interests of the Chinese people
