Chapter 117: Regression (1)

Xue Ru didn't go out for a long time, and the company and battalion-level officers of each department were sent back to the troops, and the regimental commander-level did not leave. At the beginning of the meeting, Wu Yuzhao and the heads of the regiment studied how to keep Xue Ru yesterday. There are many people and many ideas, and in the end, such a method was developed, mainly because Xue Ru cried yesterday.

It wasn't just crying, it was very sad. Wu Yuzhao didn't understand why, and he didn't understand why Xue Ru didn't accept to become the Central Army since he was reluctant to Snow Fox.

As a matter of fact, all units of the national army do not obey orders too much, they are all subordinate troops, and as long as they are loyal to the chairman and the party and the state, even if they disobey some orders, there is no problem, and loyalty is the main thing.

Maybe Xue Ru only has a military mind, but he doesn't have political talent, so he can't see the truth in this. Also, she is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, how can she expect her to have a high political level.

Therefore, Wu Yuzhao and several regiment commanders and Xiang Wenbin studied that no matter what, if Xue Ru was to stay, military operations had to rely on Xue Ru. As for how to deal with the relationship with the upper echelons of the national government, Wu Yuzhao will handle it in the future, and Xue Ru will be responsible for military operations.

It was with these deliberations that this was the case at the next day's meeting. In fact, these are beyond the scope of his authority as chief of staff, and they also have the meaning of setting aside Xue Ru. But Xue Ru didn't know this,

She thinks about things according to her own ideas, the main thing is that she has not yet seen the army as her own. Regarding what happened at the meeting today, Wu Yuzhao was able to mobilize everyone to keep her, so he didn't notice it at all.

If Xue Ru was selfish, he would find that although this was on the premise of retaining himself, all the generals did not think about why Xue Ru wanted to leave and why he abandoned the Snow Fox Corps, but led his own people to leave and start from scratch. No one thought about Xue Ru, completely obeyed Wu Yuzhao's plan, and was very suspicious of taking advantage of Xue Ru, that is, they were not satisfied with Xue Ru's behavior.

For Xue Ru, who has no political experience and doesn't think about this, of course, he won't know, and he is very grateful to Wu Yuzhao and them for spending so much effort to keep himself. Leaving the headquarters, I looked like I was wandering along the way, but I was actually thinking about what to do in the future.

Wu Yuzhao didn't want to take any of the three ways out, but Xue Ru thought of one point, that is, to pick out the suitable places for the three roads, knead them together, and walk in stages. At present, it is the time for the Japanese army to attack, and the regions are very unstable, just like the Hefei area, which is occupied by the Japanese army, although it is in the hands of the national army, it is only in the present.

As soon as the Battle of Xuzhou ended, the Battle of Wuhan began, and at the end of the 38th year, with the end of the Battle of Wuhan, the divisions of the Japanese army and the Chinese army were basically stabilized. Except for some changes in Jiangxi and Hunan, there was little change in the battlefields in Guannei, Central China, and North China until 1944.

During this period of time, neither China nor Japan knows what the future outcome will be, but they know it.

What are the advantages of knowing in advance? That is, to be prepared in advance. Xue Ru, who came back from outside, did not go to Wu Yuzhao, and the reality forced Xue Ru to study the overall situation from a strategic height.

She returned to her break room, found a map, told everyone not to disturb her, closed the door, looked at the map, frowned and studied. Big strategic thinking does not emerge in a vacuum, but is the sum total of talent, knowledge, mind, and experience.

One day, two days, even Wu Yuzhao wondered what Xue Ru was thinking. He knew that Xue Ru did not propose to leave, nor did he give any orders to the troops, but was thinking about the map, that is, Xue Ru was studying strategic and tactical issues.

At this time, Xue Ru had a general outline in his mind, and even the Communist Party, which had a blood feud with the Kuomintang, could put aside its hatred, temporarily aggrieved and cooperated, and took advantage of the opportunity of time and history to develop itself while fighting the war. Xue Ru didn't plan to seize the world, so of course he didn't have to think about what to do in the future.

Therefore, it is not difficult to accept that he has completely surrendered to the Nationalist Government now. However, there are two principles, the first of which is to find a way to obtain independent military combat power. Second, it has its own source of armaments.

With these two points, you can listen to the government or not, whether it is the Gui or Yunnan or the Jin family, isn't it all like this?

What is the right place for your own development? And the local forces in these places are not strong? Therefore, this is the problem that Xue Ru spent two days studying behind closed doors.

When she saw the location on the map, she made a decision, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, yes, just do it, then the second question is the second question, if you want to do this, you must have enough territory. If there is enough space, there must be enough men to guard him.

Where do the soldiers come from? Of course, there are three ways, to incorporate the puppet army that will appear in the future, to annex other Kuomintang troops, and finally to recruit troops, and the recruitment of troops is directly excluded.

The newly recruited soldiers have no combat effectiveness at all, and all armaments have to be equipped by themselves, so how can they have so much money and goods, of course, it is better to make them ready-made.

The third question, the business experience of later generations, made Xue Ru think that in this way, it is necessary to establish a core layer, then a tight layer, and then a peripheral layer to form a group.

And what is the driving force that makes up a group, that is, cohesion, and of course interests. For the country and the people, lofty ideals are not absent, but after all, they are a minority, and most people are profit-seeking. What can be used to attract people's centripetal force? Of course, there are no more than two, money and status.

Money is relatively easy, but status is not easy to handle, so start from money and use economic interests to let people concentrate and form an interest group.

With connections, there is also power, and the next step should be logical. But after researching for a day or two, in the final analysis, it is still a territory, and there is no place of its own, so the current task is to lay a place of its own. If there is no base, it is a rogue who has no foundation, and there is no place to rest and replenish.

If you want to lay down your own place, if you want to keep it, you must have strength, and in the final analysis, you still have to have a gun, and if you have a gun, you are the king of grass.

This is the first time that Xue Ru has not thought about the problem from the perspective of revenge for attacking the Japanese army, and even she herself is strange. What's wrong with you? Don't you just want to kill the devil to get angry and take revenge? Why are you thinking about these questions?

After thinking about it, she was also relieved, her original idea was too naïve, thinking that she could fight devils if she was bent on fighting the war. But what about reality? No guns, no artillery, no food, no military salaries, no ammunition, what to use to resist Japan? With bayonets and spears? It is conceivable that if you do not grasp the power of the state, you will not have the resources to utilize.

In later generations, Xue Ru also agreed with those statements, believing that the Eighth Route Army was only developing itself, and did not really fight the war. But now that he has come to this position, Xue Ru really understands. It's not that the CCP wants to do that, it's forced by reality, and if it doesn't develop its base areas and strength, then nothing can be done. If you want to make a difference, you have to figure it out yourself. In order to achieve the goal, it had to use the banner of the national government, which was also the place that left criticism for future generations.

Putting down the map, Xue Ru breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't have such a big ideal, just to resist Japan, so she had fewer concerns.

Let's do it this way, the first step is to gain the trust of Lao Jiang, and then pull the tiger skin to make a big banner, which is not a coercion of the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but also a fake reputation of the Son of Heaven and orders the Quartet. Now that this point has been thought of, of course Xue Ru will do it.

Just take the first step, and it's good to go on. He put down the map and shouted outside the door, "Someone." "It's always been Liang San who was on duty outside the door, and when he heard the captain call him, he hurriedly came in. Xue Ru said: "Call Chief of Staff Wu and Xiang Deputy Corps." ”

Wu Yuzhao and Xiang Wenbin glanced at each other, knowing that Xue Ru's thinking for three days had finally made a decision, and hurriedly came to Xue Ru's lounge.

This is a very good house, the front is the office place, and the back is Xue Ru's lounge, when the two people came, Xue Ru sat behind the desk, seeing the two people coming so quickly, he smiled and stretched out his hand: "Sit down and talk." ”

The two of them sat down, and Xue Ru said directly: "I'm not welcome, since you have come up with so many ways to keep me, Xue Ru is not an uninformed person, therefore, I have been thinking about it for a few days, and my words are still effective, right?" ”

Wu Yuzhao was shocked, people who were a little more attentive in his way could see that he used all his strength, in fact, it also indirectly proved that he had the ability and ideas to override Xue Ru. He dared to do this, and the premise was to keep Xue Ru. It is precisely because of this that everyone can support it. And Xue Ru asked this in the first sentence, how could he not be frightened, and hurriedly said: "Of course, you are the captain of the team, of course it works, and the snow fox will listen to you." ”

Xue Ru nodded, she heard a hint of something strange from Wu Yuzhao's tone. In fact, I also understand in my heart, if I don't understand at all, isn't it in vain these days? I won't ask this sentence with one mouth. smiled faintly and said, "Since this is the case, I want to make a big reorganization of the Snow Fox Corps, so I will discuss it with you." ”

The two of them didn't speak, but looked at Xue Ru, Xue Ru said: "In the Snow Fox Corps, it is actually formed in the form of special operations, from now on, we may fight a lot of regular battles, and the establishment and weaponry of Snow Fox are obviously not good." I think you all know that the Snow Fox regiments and battalions have no heavy weapons at all, which is not conducive to regular combat. So, it is necessary to make a radical adaptation. Besides, the two of you also know that with more than 8,000 people, you can't say it clearly, and it will attract the suspicion of others, no matter what the reason, Snow Fox should change it. ”

Xiang Wenbin was noncommittal, although he was the deputy corps, he had always been in charge of some trivial affairs, and the big problem had always been Xue Ru and Wu Yuzhao in charge.

But Wu Yuzhao heard something wrong from Xue Ru's tone. It was he who brought it up, and the Snow Fox was not on either side, so there was such a result, so he didn't speak, but looked at Xue Ru.

Xue Ru said: "I plan to separate the Snow Fox and form an independent brigade, and Chief of Staff Wu will report the plan to the Theater Command, doesn't it mean that we will be transferred to the first theater?" Then ask Commander Cheng to see what number to use and who is in command. In addition, capable personnel were drawn from various units to expand the Snow Fox Special Combat Team, and they were still under the original name, but they were no longer Snow Fox Corps, and were reduced to their original name. I will give you the specific reorganization plan of the Snow Fox Special Operations Brigade. ”

Xue Ru said that it was a discussion, but her tone was not a discussion at all, but a direct order, which Wu Yuzhao couldn't refute. In this way, it seems that it is still the original idea, and Xue Ru still has to leave the other troops aside. There is no need to research, the Snow Fox Brigade is definitely Xue Ru is the captain. But he couldn't deny that now Xue Ru was the captain, so he had to agree with Xiang Wenbin.

Sure enough, starting the next day, Xue Ru's reorganization plan began to be issued, and many people from each unit were drawn into the special combat team.

The red silk scarf of other units was revoked, and in the future, this red silk scarf became the symbol of the Snow Fox Special Operations Brigade, and other troops were strictly prohibited from using it.

The Snow Fox Brigade expanded to more than 1,000 people, and unexpectedly, the captain turned out to be Liu Yuanshan, which no one could have imagined. The chief of staff of the Snow Fox Brigade is Lai Changwen, and five squadrons have been set up below, the first squadron leader Qiao Han, the second squadron leader Xiao Yong, the third squadron leader Dai Zong, the fourth squadron leader Wei Ming, and the fifth squadron leader Kimberly.

The reorganization of the special operations brigade surprised Wu Yuzhao, but the order of the military commission that arrived later made him even more dumbfounded.

Xue Ru did not hold any position in the special operations brigade. The reorganization of the independent brigade made Wu Yuzhao feel like he was on pins and needles.

The reorganization plan was reported directly by Xue Ru to the First Theater, but the order was issued from the Military Commission. Wu Yuzhao was promoted to temporary major general and served as the commander of the 45th Brigade, Xiang Wenbin was the deputy brigade commander, with three regiments, namely the first regiment, the second regiment, and the third regiment.

The first regiment commander Lan Xunzhou, the second regiment commander Yan Fukai, the third regiment commander Zhao Tongxian, a mobile battalion directly under the brigade headquarters, battalion commander Ouyang Sari, a logistics baggage battalion, battalion commander Zhou Yunshan, chief of staff Wang Kun, and director of the Political Department Gao Minghui.

When the order of the military committee was issued, Wu Yuzhao was dumbfounded, what was going on? How did this order come through? What about Xue Ru? Why doesn't she have any position? Cancel the Snow Fox Corps, don't they understand that this unit was created by Xue Ru?

Not only Wu Yuzhao was dumbfounded, everyone was dumbfounded. Dai Zong, who had just withdrawn from Dingyuan, and many others gathered here in Xue Ru, and everyone wanted to ask why.

Soon Wu Yuzhao knew something, because he had just received a telegram from his father, and one sentence made him understand that the reorganization plan was reported by Xue Ru, and the Wu family just used their strength to let the military committee approve it.

Looking at these people in front of him, Xue Ru couldn't see any displeasure: "What are you doing?" Are you going to force the palace? ”

Liu Yuanshan had a bitter face: "Captain, what are you doing here?" What are you going to do? Leave your brothers alone? How can I command the Snow Fox Brigade? Isn't that the same as pit me? I reported my resignation and didn't do it, but there are more than 1,000 people, and I can't afford to take this responsibility. ”

Xiao Yong said: "Don't be angry, I like you, but I didn't force you, you have a sweetheart, I will quit, please, don't do this." ”

Xue Ru shook his head: "Xiao Yong, things are not what you think, there are some things, you should think about it more." Yes, I submitted the plan, why it was approved, don't you understand? The training director is Tang Shengzhi, Yao Dianshu is now a staff officer of the Ministry of Military Affairs, why doesn't the Snow Fox Corps have any equipment? Delayed distribution of ammunition? These are obvious things, think about it. ”
