The little grandfather interjected: "Aren't you afraid of your group joining the Eighth Route Army and the Communist Party?" "Everybody looked at me.

Ignoring the little grandfather's question, he continued: "If Tang Guangpei's guerrillas develop, there will be about one-third of the militia, one-third of the guerrillas and one-third of the main force. The construction of the main force is the sharp knife in the hands of the guerrillas, and it is necessary to stand up and become a pillar when the devils sweep or when it is difficult. You can cover the retreat of the civilians on the inner line, or you can go to the outer line to contain the enemy's sweeping attack. It is also possible to conduct assault operations against important targets of the enemy.

You are now in one area to play this role for the guerrillas. So should we develop our own partisan detachments? No, we are here to fight devils for a pure purpose, we don't need to establish regional regimes, we don't need large-scale military theories, we don't need to eat on turf. We would just like to assist the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army who are willing to cooperate with us.

The way a group fights is different from the way you 50 people fight, and the role is even more different. Now we are in a centralized state, and we are preparing to raid the important strongholds of the devils. Give the devils a deterrent and prevent them from running out unscrupulously and bullying the common people everywhere! Valuable time and space were provided for guerrillas to develop militias in villages and to carry out tunnel warfare and mine warfare.

It can be quickly dispersed and depends on two conditions. One is telecommunications, and more than 50 of you are equipped with five radio stations, and this is not a problem. The second is strict discipline and prohibition. Answer Zhou Jingduo's question now. Our scouts are carefully trained, and the training cost of a scout is probably not much worse than the training cost of a regiment of the Eighth Route Army, and some of them are much larger, especially those who can fly planes. They really joined your army and your party, at least I don't care, leaving us doesn't mean that they are not anti-Japanese heroes. The problem is that since you have joined other organizations, there will inevitably be times when there will be a conflict of orders. Orders and prohibitions are the lifeblood of any disciplined force, and no force will tolerate the existence of not being able to carry out orders! ”

He looked at everyone and said, "What if it happens?" It's easy to do, it's easy to get together, and it's easy to say that it's okay to leave, and a precedent has been set with the chief of staff. This is a situation, so if you don't make it clear in advance, disobey the battle? It's easy to do! The implementation of battlefield discipline means that he must not mention any reason to me, even if he becomes a cadre of the Eighth Route Army, he must enforce battlefield discipline. Whoever causes losses, hunt him down to the edge of the sky! Don't bother with anyone interceding! I also don't believe that the disciplined Eighth Route Army would accommodate such people. This is the principle for you, you know, right? ”

"Understood, instructor!" Peng Chengfu replied loudly.

"Peng Chengfu, you remember. It is necessary to maintain independent combat power. What about command during cooperation? It is to cooperate and cooperate, and to form a joint command center that can conduct joint operations, otherwise it will fight alone. If Tang Guangpei's superiors don't agree to your cooperation, retreat immediately and go to other places to fight devils! If you can't do it in Henan, you can go to Hebei, Shandong, Shanxi, and Pingjin. And try something else as well.

Peng Chengfu, you remember. Why did you punish you last time, any one of our scouts was able to take out 50 enemies in a year, no problem, right? Then you can wipe out a squadron in five years, and all these scouts are not your property, and they cannot be used as tools for you to kill the enemy and vent your anger. Several planes can't be compared to them, you have to be careful, in the event of a similar incident, your only way out is to leave. Because the War of Resistance is a long-term and protracted war, you have all studied carefully! ”

"Understood, instructor!" Peng Chengfu replied loudly.

"Okay, that's it for the mission and some principles of the reconnaissance company, let's get back to the topic. The goal of the airport is to fight! Ma Biao has already made the task clear, which is to set a fire. Send two or three men with time bombs, and the specific targets are the oil depot first, the ammunition depot second, and the bombers and other planes again. One cover one, go in according to the bomb time of 15 minutes, do what you can, come out and retreat quickly, delay an hour and a half, enough for them to run out of 20 kilometers, arrange a good response, enter the Taihang Mountain is safe.

The second target suggestion is the Xiaotun stronghold. If you can take it without gunfire, you can raid Tagang Station. If it attracts the attention of the devil, just retreat.

The trains of the current railway line are mainly for transporting coal, and it is unlikely that they will encounter military trains, and they are of little value to us. Scout raids are very simple, it is enough to install pressure mines on the railway, a derailment is enough for the devils to be busy for several days, such a long railway line, the guerrillas have no way, it does not mean that you have no way. ”

looked at Tang Guangpei and said: "Why do you want to participate in the meeting, that is, if the operation is successful, you will have more weapons." The problem is that we are going north, and we may also provoke the devils, so you have to guard against the devils' retaliation! If you participate, you have to work with Peng Chengfu to make a plan and assign your own tasks. Understand the course of the battle and the ways to deal with unexpected situations. You first digest all kinds of information, and start working out a plan tomorrow. Once again, we should remind us of the operational principle of 'not fighting a war for which there is no certainty and not fighting a war for which there is no preparation.' Prepare to go. ”

Seeing that everyone else was gone, the little grandfather didn't move, and asked directly, "Comrade Zhou, what's the matter?" Let's just say it! ”

The little grandfather hesitated for a moment and asked: "Why do you have to be in Licheng County, where are more than 1,000 people?" ”

sighed in his heart, and thought about it, if he had no experience in his previous life, and he was a hot-blooded young man with others, he might not be as good as others, so he said gently: "Little grandpa, I know that you are kind, and it is estimated that many of your colleagues and comrades-in-arms do not understand." Why? It's more complicated to say, so I won't talk about it. You remember that this issue is not just a military issue, it is a political issue, and none of your headquarters has the authority to decide on it. Your current vision is not wide enough, your vision is not high enough, the key is that the level is not enough. If the Central Committee of your Party does not make a clear statement before, do not mention it in the future, do not approve or oppose other people's statements, you will not be able to decide, and there will be no point in discussion! Wait a few more years and you'll find out for yourself. ”

The little grandfather left in a daze.
