However, although when answering the boss's persuasion, Yang Zhen was very indifferent. But his face was a little blue, and he still clearly showed that he was in a very bad mood at the moment. During the entire campaign period, he was threatened by the Japanese army with this method, and everyone felt uncomfortable.

In fact, Yang Zhen's face was a little uncertain, not only because he was coerced at this time, which made his feelings a little low. There were also some things that he didn't say. In the previous battles between the Anti-Japanese Federation and the Japanese army, there were indeed cases where ordinary people were used as meat shields. But it is basically the individual behavior of individual troops, and it has not been seen as a whole as today.

Today, he was coerced by the Japanese army, and he could only make way for the Japanese army, which had actually become a meat on the board, to retreat. Let the Japanese army find that this tactic is very effective, and what if they adopt this tactic again when the battle is lost in the near future? This is a battle on the battlefield in China, and the further south the front, the denser it becomes.

This time they make way for them to make a passage, so next time will they use the common people as meat shields to cover their attack? Anyway, for the Japanese, even the Chinese are dead, there is only good for them, and there is no great harm. They can not care about the lives of the Chinese, but the Chinese themselves cannot but have scruples.

This is the reason why Yang Zhen said so, but his face was very ugly. What made him a little worried in his heart was that once a vicious tactic was found to be useful by his opponent. So in the case that this opponent is already in decline, whether it will be used by them as a convention is the most difficult to judge and quite difficult to accept.

A glimmer of sunlight through the window made Yang Zhen's eyes squint slightly. I pondered for a long time, but I couldn't come up with a way to solve this problem that might continue to run into problems in the future. It's a largely unsolvable problem, and unless it's that cold-blooded animal, it's hard to come up with an effective solution.

The boss looked at Yang Zhen, whose face was still a little gloomy despite saying this, but he didn't persuade anything in this matter. After a slight silence, the boss said: "This battle is completely over, you and I will return to Yan'an." Make a comprehensive report to the Central Committee on the current battle situation. Moreover, the central authorities should also seek your opinions on the entire work arrangements for the next step. ”

"Let me remind you first, the central government is now making a decision to move to Beiping. I went south to southern Hebei this time to seek your opinion on this matter. Northern Shaanxi is too barren, and its economic base and products are too weak. A large number of central organs have remained in northern Shaanxi, which has already caused a great burden on the local area. ”

"What the central government means is that the economic foundation of Pingjin is better, and it is close to the Jizhong base area in the main grain-producing areas of North China. The relocation of the central government to Beiping as a whole, and the relocation of some organs to Zhangjiakou, Tianjin, and Baoding, can effectively reduce the economic burden of northern Shaanxi. At the same time, it moved to Beiping, which also has a greater guarantee of safety. ”

Hearing the topic mentioned by the boss, I knew why the boss spent most of his time in Beiping after recovering the front line of Pingjin, mobilizing troops to clean up the remaining Japanese puppet forces and bandits around Beiping, and personally taking charge of the reception and management of Beiping.

Knowing that this was the boss, Yang Zhen, who was soliciting his own opinions for the chairman, said after careful consideration: "Boss, I support and approve of this idea of the central government. Judging from the current situation on the battlefield and our future development, it is far more suitable for the central authorities to move to Beiping than to stay in northern Shaanxi. ”

"Beiping is located at the intersection of Pinghan, Pingsui and Pingjin railways, and has Nanyuan Airport and other airports with take-off and landing conditions far better than those in Yan'an, and the overall traffic environment is far more favorable than that of northern Shaanxi. Moreover, it is not far from Jizhong, the main grain-producing area in North China, and there are railways that can be used, which can fully guarantee the supply of the central organs. ”

"And Peking is also close to Tianjin, the largest industrial and commercial city in northern China. In the suburbs, there is the Mentougou Coal Mine, and it is not far from the Kailuan Coal Mine in Tangshan. The conditions for ensuring the supply of grain and various materials are far better than those in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo border region, where the land is barren and the people are poor. ”

"If the central government can move to Beiping as a whole, only part of the remaining troops will be left in Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia. In this way, the burden on the common people in northern Shaanxi will be reduced by at least two-thirds. At the same time, whether it is working conditions, living conditions, or even living conditions and medical conditions, Beiping is far better than that of northern Shaanxi. Moreover, Beiping's status in domestic politics and military affairs is not comparable to that of northern Shaanxi, which is in a corner of peace. ”

"The most critical Beiping is backed by our Chahar and Rehe liberated areas, and the west is separated from the Taihang Mountains and our Shanxi liberated areas, and the entire Hebei and eastern Hebei lines have been firmly controlled by our army. However, Beiping is now located at the core of China's liberated areas in North China, and its security is far from being comparable to that of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Border Region, which is threatened on three sides. ”

"Boss, if the central government asks for my opinion, I support the central government's relocation to Beiping. However, after the relocation of the Central Committee to Beiping, the main departments and the main leaders of the Central Committee should not be stationed in Beiping City for the first time. It is better to temporarily be stationed in the Xishan or Summer Palace area. These places are densely vegetated, which is still very helpful for air defense. ”

"Although the little devil was defeated by us on the battlefield, he is quite good at using the means of being a ninth-rate. However, Beiping has been the headquarters of the Japanese North China Front for many years, and before the July 7 Incident, the Japanese infiltrated the entire North China front, and there were many secret agencies, and the overall situation was still relatively complicated. ”

"My opinion is that the current situation and shape of the national war have changed considerably. Under such circumstances, the relocation of the central government to Beiping was far more conducive to commanding the overall situation than staying in northern Shaanxi. However, before the hidden Japanese spies were eliminated, it was still not appropriate for the main central departments to be stationed in Beiping City immediately. ”

To be honest, Yang Zhen was somewhat surprised that the central government was now moving to Beiping. He thought that with the character of the chairman, he would not move out of northern Shaanxi in a short period of time. But I didn't expect that the central government would now propose to move the central government's station from northern Shaanxi to Beiping.

However, Yang Zhen still agrees with and supports this move of the central government. Just as he said, Beiping is much stronger than Northern Shaanxi in every aspect. Moreover, so many non-combatants of the central government, as well as government workers, all rely on northern Shaanxi for supplies, which puts too much pressure on the already fragile economy of northern Shaanxi.

Although a large-scale production campaign was also adopted before, it effectively reduced the economic burden of northern Shaanxi. However, in terms of the geographical conditions and environment of northern Shaanxi, it is impossible to fundamentally solve the problem. The congenital natural environment there is too barren. In the event of a natural disaster, it will still cause an inextricable dilemma for supply.

Millet raises people again, but where is the output. In other places, the collection that can be completely afforded is quite heavy in northern Shaanxi. The relocation of the central government as a whole to the natural environment and economic foundation is far better than that of Beiping in northern Shaanxi. It is undoubtedly a good choice for both the central government and the people of northern Shaanxi.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that the chairman proposed to move the central government to Beiping. After all, when it comes to the ability to provide for it, there are too many differences between northern Shaanxi and Pingjin. At present, in the whole of Hebei, as well as most of Shanxi except for the southwest of Shanxi, at this time, the central government's move to Beiping is also a matter of course.

Regarding Yang Zhen's answer, the boss nodded with satisfaction and said, "However, Comrade Yang Zhen." In addition to asking me for your opinion, the Central Committee also wants to ask you, what are you going to do in the coming period after the end of this war? The central authorities hope that after this battle, you will be able to retain some troops in Hebei, at least for the time being. ”

After saying this, looking at Yang Zhen's somewhat cautious expression, the boss smiled slightly: "What the central government means is that the Japanese army has not completely lost its offensive ability at present. In other words, if the Japanese base camp makes up its mind, the Japanese army may still launch another offensive in the North China battlefield in the near future. ”

"The central government hopes that after the battle, you will be able to keep a number of troops in Hebei. It is hoped that the Japanese army will be able to have some scruples when launching a counterattack, or that the central government can have a certain number of mobile troops in its hands. After all, the North China troops are very different from you in terms of equipment. ”

"Moreover, the major strategic regions have their own jurisdictions to be responsible for, and they cannot allocate too many troops for a while, and they will be allocated to the central government as mobile forces. Before the Japanese army completely loses its offensive capability, it is still necessary for the central government to retain a relatively strong reserve in its hands. ”

"Otherwise, once the shape is needed, the troops from the northeast are mobilized to enter the pass, which is thousands of miles away, and it is very likely that there will be a situation where the water is far away and cannot quench the thirst of the near. Especially at present, the railway connection between Northeast China and North China has not yet been opened. Rest assured, the central government just borrowed them. It will take no more than a year at most, and then it will be guaranteed to be completed and returned to Zhao. ”

Yang Zhen waved his hand and said, "Boss, you are a little out of sight when you say this." The Anti-Japanese Federation is not my personal army, and I, Yang Zhen, are not those warlords of the past. I have nothing to say about the requirements of the central authorities. In a word, as long as the central authorities need it, there is no problem in how many troops are mobilized in the United Nations. ”

"After the end of this battle, I left the 1st Armored Division and 3rd Brigade, and left two ** tank regiments. As for the infantry units, I will keep as much as the central government needs. In addition, I left two rocket artillery regiments, four 150 howitzer regiments, and three automobile regiments. ”

"As for air power, the air force currently fighting in the North China Battlefield belongs to a medium bomber group, an attack aircraft group, two fighter groups, and a squadron of transport aircraft. At present, all the air defense units deployed on the Pingjin-Pinghan Road have also been left under the command of the central authorities. ”

Yang Zhen's generosity, the boss waved his hand with a smile and said: "You don't need that armored division, you now have a total of two armored divisions, stay in North China one, and the remaining one will be lonely." No matter where you go next, with your character and the current situation at home, you will face a tough nut. It is still necessary to keep a strong armored corps in hand. ”

"Moreover, leaving such a tank in Hebei is also easy to cause some unnecessary suspicion in some quarters, and it is not good for us in politics. After all, the shape of North China is much more complex than that of Northeast China. Two countries and three dukes, this confused account is not easy to calculate. What if you leave too much and people think it's a threat? ”

"In this way, this armored 1st division should not be left behind. In terms of armored troops, you leave two tank brigades, plus two tank regiments, I think it will be roughly enough. If there are too many of them, not only will it affect your combat effectiveness, but the central government will not be able to feed these oil tigers, and it will also easily cause political trouble. ”
