In the evening, the regimental and battalion-level cadres who participated in the northbound Qinglong held a meeting in this village. The meeting lasted for six hours, and all of them were discussing whether to go south to find Funing's troops.

The meeting was at an impasse at the outset, and the arguments were very hot. Just like the previous political commissar Deng and Commander Li, they quickly divided into two parts, began to argue endlessly, and even began to show signs of intensification, if it were not for Director Li's mediation, it was even very likely that a fight would have started.

For 3 days in a row, I was arguing about this matter. It wasn't until the evening of the third day, after many discussions and mutual concessions, that a relatively acceptable solution was finally come up. The main force of Qinglong, which originally went north, went south to Funing, Lulong, Leting, and Changli to reopen the base area. A battalion of the 33rd Brigade of the 4th Column and a general unit of the Anti-Japanese Federation continued to move north to Qinglong and opened up base areas in the Dushan and Qinglong areas.

After the plan is decided, it will be immediately submitted to the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and the Eastern Hebei Prefectural Committee, and then the Jin-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and the Eastern Hebei Prefectural Committee will hold a meeting and discuss and then submit it to the central authorities, where they will make a final decision.

After receiving the information, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region and the Eastern Hebei Prefectural Committee attached great importance to it and held a meeting overnight to discuss it. After a whole night of intense discussions, their request was agreed in principle. But they did not dare to make a resolution on such a matter, and still submitted it to the headquarters and the central government.

Outside the cave, the instructor received a telegram from the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region, and was silent, so that everyone in the Central Guard could see him sitting at the stone table, smoking cigarettes one after another.

It wasn't until the evening of the 2nd that the instructor came back from Shanxi on the evening of the 2nd to finish the day's smoking.

Looking at the pile of cigarette butts at the instructor's feet, No. 2 also sighed. "Okay, I know the news of those three little guys, what's there to worry about, it's good to be alive."

"No, that's not what I'm worried about." The instructor shook his head, "What they are about to face is another problem, the encirclement and suppression of the Japanese army is coming, and the 60,000 troops are easily dumplings only in the Lulong Funing area." ”

"And you see," said the instructor, pulling No. 2 into the room and opening the map of eastern Hebei, "you see, the eastern Hebei region is very flat, suitable for the mobile troops of the Japanese army to move around at will, even if there is a lack of roads, they can move relatively quickly. In other words, what our army will see is a very mobile unit of the Japanese army. I am very worried about whether these 60,000 troops will survive the encirclement and suppression. ”

Moreover, according to the reports of the Eastern Hebei Prefectural Committee and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, the Fourth Column has still not completed the reorganization of the confrontation alliance. I believe you know what level such an army is, and you can imagine the outcome of encountering the elite Japanese army. ”

Hearing the instructor's words, No. 2 also frowned deeply. He is well aware that the combat effectiveness of the units that have accepted the reorganization and those that have not accepted the reorganization are completely two different concepts. The current number of anti-Japanese troops is large enough, but not strong enough, and when encountering a large-scale Japanese army, they can only be beaten and scurry.

Of course, even the current Eighth Route Army will not be able to face the main forces of the Japanese army. Judging from the Battle of Pingxingguan and the subsequent battles, it is still a lot worse. After all, the gap in firepower is there, and you can not admit defeat, but you must recognize the gap.

"What do you think the comrades in Jidong should do?" The instructor set his sights on Number 2, trying to get his opinion.

No. 2 thought about it for a moment, "My idea is that the troops should go south to Funing, Lulong and other places to establish a base area. However, the large army should immediately return to Jixian, Pinggu, and Miyun areas, continue to establish base areas, and organize resistance against the rule of the Japanese invaders. In any case, the Funing Lulong area cannot afford to support an army of 60,000 people. ”

"Makes sense," the instructor nodded, "I agree with you." In any case, the 60,000-strong army must not be gathered in such a small place as Lulong and Funing, and must be dispersed as soon as possible. Moreover, when you return to the Pinggu and Miyun areas, you can also get the support and assistance of the 1st Division of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and the pressure will be much less. ”

The instructor pondered for a moment, "In this way, tell the Eastern Hebei Prefectural Committee and the troops of the Eastern Hebei side." 1. The troops need to immediately enter the Lulong Funing area, open up the situation for rest, and restore their combat effectiveness as soon as possible. ”

"2. Some troops can be transferred into the base area for rest, and then the troops that have completed the rest and recuperation first will immediately start pulling out and returning to the Miyun, Jixian, and Pinggu areas, and immediately open up the situation and open up the base area as soon as possible."

"3. The idea of going north to Qinglong is agreed by the central government. Dushan and Qinglong counties are important northern border towns, and the activities of our army are needed to prevent the Kwantung Army from moving south into the eastern Hebei region. ”

"4. Tell them to complete the reorganization as soon as possible while the troops are resting. The Fourth Column must use the fastest speed to bring about the reorganization of the Anti-Resistance League, ensure that the Anti-Japanese Federation must carry out operations under our leadership, and that the leadership must be established as soon as possible. We don't have much time left. ”

The instructor's words became heavier and heavier, and his expression became more and more serious. Number 2 glanced at the instructor and frowned, "What's wrong?" The situation in eastern Hebei is still okay now, right? ”

"It's okay now, but it doesn't mean it's okay next," the teacher's expression became more and more ugly, "You look at these reports, they are from the Central News Agency." As he spoke, he shoved the newspaper in his hand to Number 2.

No. 2 carefully read a few circled reports in the newspaper, and then his face was difficult to look at. "If it really does ...... as it says above"

"Ah," the instructor nodded, "the central and local armies of the national government have already shown signs of defeat, and they are powerless to stop the Japanese attack. In other words, the Battle of Wuhan will end in about 1 month or so. ”

"After the Battle of Wuhan, or when the pressure of the Battle of Wuhan is not so great, the 27th Division, which originally belonged to the North China Front, will inevitably return to the North China Front. Moreover, the predecessor of the 27th Division, the Chinese Garrison Army, was stationed in eastern Hebei, that is to say, the anti-union in eastern Hebei will inevitably face a huge enemy. ”

"You should understand how effective a main division is that has just come off the battlefield. If we want to win, we must sink down to the people, mobilize the power of the people, and start the people's war. ”

"Also, so far there is still no leadership established in eastern Hebei, who is the leader, and who will lead the war and base construction in eastern Hebei? Why hasn't the party organization been established until now? Why are there so many people in the entire Eastern Hebei Prefectural Committee, but the base area has not been built so far, but has been solved by a doll? ”

No. 2 saw that the instructor was so angry, and hurriedly reassured: "Okay, okay, the eastern side of Hebei itself is very complicated, and the contradiction between the enemy and us is very difficult to solve. And you also know that these troops are complex and not easy to manage for a while. ”

"Complex? I don't think it's complicated, but it's not at all, right? The instructor smiled coldly, "I have repeatedly emphasized that local work must go to the people, take root and do it with heart. But what about Jidong? If the people of the Eastern Hebei Prefectural Committee really want to take root in the people, will there be things that will not be able to open up base areas? ”

"The organization is chaotic, there is no direction for development, and there is no real leadership position established until now. How can local people build a base area if they are superficial and unwilling to take root and do it with their hearts? From August to the present, the troops have not been reorganized and have not been reorganized. How can a unit without a unified ideology resist the Japanese puppet? ”

"In this case, I will send them the telegram first, and let them make it as soon as possible." Number 2 said. "Okay," the instructor nodded, "the wording is harsh, the things on Ji Reliao's side are constantly repeating, which makes us very dissatisfied, if there is anything else on Jidong's side, he will be dismissed." ”
