Umezu Mijiro took the method of first going all out to deal with the Normenhan Soviet army, and then turned around to clear Yang Zhen's department. Although there will be a lot of pressure on Yang Zhen in the future, this tactic also gives Yang Zhen plenty of time to recuperate. 【. com text] allowed him to have a relatively relaxed time to retrain the troops, and completed the training of more than 20,000 newly rescued laborers.
While enjoying the perhaps short-term tranquility brought by the bloody battle, Yang Zhen did not forget his predetermined plan. After the two military subdivisions had been formed and deployed in their respective operational areas, Yang Zhen had now shifted the focus of his work to munitions production and the building of grassroots political power in the liberated areas to his headquarters.
Regarding Yang Zhen's recruitment, the commander-in-chief who was inspecting the work in Luobei did not feel surprised. He had a certain understanding of Yang Zhen's huge plan, and knew that it was the best time to implement it, and it was time for him to come forward.
Seeing Yang Zhen, the commander-in-chief said straight to the point: "Say, when is it more appropriate for me to cross the river." ”
As for where to cross the river and what to do, the two of them tacitly agreed.
Regarding the commander-in-chief's straightforwardness, Yang Zhen smiled and poured a glass of water for the commander-in-chief: "Commander-in-chief, I think that although it is not the best time now, the current relatively calm moment on the Japanese side is the best time we can take advantage of for the time being." ”
"If we don't take advantage of this calm that doesn't know when it will end and solve some of the supplies we urgently need, it will be difficult for us to have such an opportunity in the future."
Speaking of this, Yang Zhen turned around and took out a thick pile of Wen Jiàn from his almost inseparable satchel, handed it to the commander-in-chief, and said, "This is the material we urgently need now, as well as the capital that can be used to exchange materials." And with several gold mines in the Xiaoxinganling area falling into our hands, you can tell Jiangbei that we will pay for some of the supplies in some hard currency in the future. ”
The commander-in-chief took the text handed over by Yang Zhen, read it carefully, and then put it down and said: "Why are most of them military raw materials, as well as military gasoline." In terms of equipment, in addition to these three hundred mosins. Aside from the Nagant sniper rifle, 500 individual sniper rifle scopes and some anti-aircraft machine guns, only the manufacturing technology of this Soviet-made F1 grenade was transferred. ”
"Isn't these materials a little too biased towards the military industry? You must know that at present, it is very difficult for our military industry to meet all the needs of the troops in a short period of time. And in the future, as we have fewer and fewer things to exchange, it is almost impossible for us to exchange so many supplies at once. ”
"Deputy Commander-in-Chief Yang, you must think clearly. Don't let these reasons cause losses to the troops. ”
"After all, when the military production capacity cannot meet the needs of use, outsourcing is the best and fastest choice. Although our military industry has reached a certain scale on the surface, in fact, at least for the time being, the production capacity is still very limited. We are too short of technical experts, and there are many things that cannot be solved by relying on the experience of old workers. ”
In response to the commander-in-chief's question, Yang Zhen stood up and shook his head and said, "Commander-in-chief, we can't develop the habit of relying on foreign aid. Especially in the case of not being able to shop around, we can only count on others to give alms, and we can't develop this habit. ”
"For the Soviets, they were more interested in their own interests. Their strategic focus is in Europe, not Asia. Don't look at the fact that they are fighting with the Japanese in Normenhan now, but they are absolutely unwilling to completely offend Japan, a powerful country, and create a strong opponent for their own east. If necessary, in order to comply with their strategic interests, they can stop arms sales or military aid to us at any time. ”
"Indeed, the production capacity of our current military industry start-up cannot keep up. Even gun-shot ammunition could not be produced, and ammunition was produced only on the scale of reloading small arms ammunition. The equipment and raw materials needed to manufacture various weapons can only rely on the original reserves. ”
"It is precisely because of this that we have to find a way to fully display our military industry. At the very least, it is necessary to be able to make a projectile for ammunition. Otherwise, even if we want to reload the bullets, we will not have the projectile to use. Although we have not yet been able to build a steel mill to completely solve all the raw materials. But we have to solve the problem of making gun-shots. ”
"Because the smokeless gunpowder used to produce hundreds of rockets was consumed so much, you didn't sleep for a few days. If we can produce a large amount of smokeless gunpowder ourselves, you won't have to worry about sleepless all night. ”
"This time, I took out all the one ton of gold we had on hand to buy a smokeless gunpowder production line, an artillery projectile production line, and a production line for necessary military raw materials such as nitric acid and sulfuric acid from Jiangbei, just to solve the problem first."
"Although it is not possible to build a steel mill, with 500 tons of nickel-chromium alloy steel on Wen Jiàn and 100 tons of seamless steel pipes of various calibers used in the manufacture of mortars and rocket artillery, production can be maintained for at least a period of time without any problems. We can't be 100% self-sufficient in the military industry, but at least we need to ensure self-sufficiency in ammunition and the supply of other materials in a short period of time. ”
After that, Yang Zhen looked at the commander-in-chief with a contemplative face, and smiled: "Commander-in-chief, I also know that outsourcing is more convenient, but let's not talk about the stability of this source channel." Soviet-made weapons alone are not too suitable for our army. ”
"The standard of the Soviet army, Mosin? Although the Nagant rifle has good accuracy and bullet lethality, this rifle designed according to the Soviet body shape is too bulky and not suitable for the size of our Chinese. We will be fighting in the mountains, at least for quite some time, and this rifle will be a burden for us. ”
"The Dzhegarev DP-28 light machine gun, which is the main light machine gun, is simple in structure, but it is also bulky. Although its single-disc ammunition feeding device has the advantages of large ammunition capacity and long continuous firing time, it is also cumbersome and unbearable after loading the machine gun. ”
"After the July 7 Incident, when our army in Guannai was going to the anti-Japanese front, the Kuomintang once allocated me a batch of light machine guns in the Soviet-aided weapons. To be honest, it was too cumbersome for us who were still in pure infantry combat. When marching, the cartridge disc must be removed before the Heavy can march for a long time. ”
"Although there are many problems with the crooked handle machine guns we have captured, one of the biggest advantages is that they can directly use the captured devil's ammunition on the spot without any improvements. Moreover, after our army improved its supply of bombs, its reliability has increased by a large margin. In addition, the Japanese army's weapons have always pursued the advantage of shooting accuracy, which is enough to meet our use. ”
"As for Tokarev, which was used by the Soviet troops? The Maxim heavy machine gun is reliable. The chain feeding method used can also keep the machine gun at a higher level of fire and enhance the durability of firepower. ”
"But the water-cooled way of shooting isn't too good for our location. In the extremely cold weather of minus thirty or forty degrees Celsius, when this machine gun is not in use, the cooling water in its holster must be discharged. Otherwise, it is easy to freeze the machine gun. ”
"And a lot of our combat methods are encounters with devils. For us, whose firepower is not very strong, heavy machine guns are quite important fire support weapons below the regimental level. As soon as the heavy machine guns do not go off, the firepower of our troops will be greatly reduced. ”
"This kind of machine gun of the Soviet army uses a wheeled gun mount, which is more suitable for use in the plains of the central and eastern part of the Soviet Union, but it is extremely inconvenient to set it up in our current main mountain operations."
"Although the devil's Type 92 heavy machine gun is bulky and unbearable, its shooting is not very fast because it uses a trigger to feed ammunition. However, its air-cooled mode is very suitable for use in severe cold climates. Moreover, because this machine gun itself was made by the Japanese army, it was also possible to use captured Japanese ammunition on the spot. This is important for us to maintain our ability to continue operations. ”
"We now have an arsenal whose production capacity is not large for the time being, but it is barely enough. In the course of fighting the Japanese puppet army, we have captured a large number of Japanese-style weapons with universal ammunition, and it is more appropriate for us to put our limited resources on the raw materials for the military industry that we urgently need. ”
"Didn't you say it in the Internationale? There has never been a savior, and we can only rely on ourselves. Therefore, no matter how bad the conditions are, we must also develop our own military industry. We can't put all our hopes in foreign aid, or we will be disappointed one day. ”
"Besides, although the Soviet army is currently engaged in a large-scale armed conflict with the Japanese army in the Nomenkhand area, as long as there is no full-scale war between the two countries, they have certain concerns about selling our weapons. Once the quantity of weapons we buy or exchange is too large, people will not give us two words for diplomatic considerations. ”
"Commander, if they give the best of those sniper rifles, but if they don't agree, you must find a way to get a batch of scopes for sniper rifles. Even if necessary, it is okay to pay some high prices. ”
For Yang Zhen's words, I remembered the experience of crossing the river several times to ask for help, but I got nothing. Think about it again, in order to solve the situation of the lack of weapons in the troops, the commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army crossed the river to ask for help. and the only arsenal among the anti-Japanese coalition armies he created to seek raw materials, and the commander of the 11th Army who crossed the river to ask for support, but the two who never returned.
I thought that in order to obtain a certain amount of supplies, the Seventh Army had paid a great price and obtained a lot of urgently needed information for Jiangbei, but only in exchange for the supply of 30,000 bullets.
Among them, there are many scrap items that cannot be used at all because the other party has not kept them well after obtaining them, and the commander-in-chief still agrees with Yang Zhen's idea of vigorously developing his military industry.
After a long silence, the commander-in-chief nodded and said, "I will try to find a way to exchange the greatest need for the least cost." Like you said, we are not landlords, and we don't have so much surplus grain to exchange. No matter how great your ability is, the new weapons that can be exchanged for this, especially those suitable for Jiangbei, are limited. ”
Regarding the commander-in-chief's reply, Yang Zhen nodded with satisfaction, and said: "In addition to negotiating the purchase and exchange of the materials we need, the commander-in-chief must also try his best to get the other party to get back our comrades who they have detained." Commander-in-chief, I'm talking about everyone, not just a few people. ”
Those detained comrades in Yang Zhen's mouth are those comrades, and the commander-in-chief naturally knows very well in his heart. The Japanese army occupied the Northeast for so many years, and because they could not bear the oppression of the Japanese army, many people in the Northeast, especially those near the border, fled to Jiangbei. There are even puppet Manchurian military and police who do not want to work for the Japanese puppet regime.
And because of the form, the number of anti-Manchu anti-Japanese forces who withdrew to Jiangbei was even higher. At the end of last year alone, and within half a year from the beginning of this year, in the frenzied encirclement and suppression of the Xiajiang area launched by the Japanese puppet army, many of the scattered anti-United Nations forces, and even small units, withdrew to Jiangbei in formations. If these men were to come back, they would be an excellent reinforcement.
As for who those people were talking about, the commander-in-chief and Yang Zhen were equally tacit. It's just that these few people are involved in the internal line struggle of the Third Route Army, which makes it very difficult for the commander-in-chief. Although it is a pity that the other party's talents are rare, he is the commander-in-chief of the Second Route Army after all, and it is still not good to meddle in the affairs of the Third Route Army.
For Yang Zhen's request, the commander-in-chief shook his head undeniably, but he did not refuse Yang Zhen, but said: "I will try my best to get those people back." If you don't come back, forget it. Deputy Commander-in-Chief Yang, you still try to have a good relationship with the leaders of the Third Route Army. After all, we are all fighting under one flag. ”
"There are a lot of things you can't decide on the basis of rumors without knowing them in detail. You are now a senior commander, and the matter involves the future relationship between the two route armies. You have to be cautious about these things. ”
Speaking of this, the commander-in-chief stretched his waist, which was a little sore due to recent fatigue, and said, "The equipment used for exchange has already been prepared, and I have already translated the drawings myself. Now that the matter has been decided, I will come out tomorrow. It's better to go early and come back early. ”
Hearing the commander-in-chief's proposal to come out as soon as possible, Yang Zhen nodded but changed the topic and said, "Commander-in-chief, you go and bring your sister-in-law this time." When you come back, don't bring your sister-in-law back, let her recuperate there for a while. I asked Zhang Ting to send two reliable nurses with me. ”
When the commander-in-chief heard that Yang Zhen actually asked him to bring his wife with him, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he looked at Yang Zhen's sincere expression. He didn't understand why Yang Zhen, who has always been unparticular and does not allow others to engage in specialization, would say this?
