Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

For Lao Jiang's promotion and the designation given to him, Mao Taizu saw through the calculations of the Central Army at a glance.But the problem is, even if he knew it was a scheme of the Central Army, how could he refuse the designation of the new 67th Army?

Thinking of Mao Taizu here, he immediately said: "Call the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, and leave this matter to the commander-in-chief to decide. The opinion of the central government is to eat the candy and send the shells back to it. We want this number!"

'Yes, Chairman! '

The Eighth Route Army headquarters, which received the telegram, was also shocked by the news.Seeing the news that the Central Army promoted He Zhengdao to general, Boss Peng sneered and said, "It's a good plan! They are really willing to give up a general and division commander!"

Faced with Boss Peng's sneer, Boss Zhu smiled and said: "I think Lao Jiang's capital is still very high! With an army number, we have two more main divisions and an independent brigade, which is not very good ?

In the past, when we asked them for the serial number, they still refused to give it.Now they take the initiative to give it, why don't we?General, although a bit nondescript.But to be honest, Xiao He's achievements are worthy of this rank.

Most importantly, Lao Jiang wants us to exclude Xiao He from within. Judging from the current situation, do you think it is possible?Not to mention our headquarters, just the other main divisions at present, who don't owe this kid a favor?

In my opinion, it doesn't matter if we eat this sugar-coated cannonball.Although a 22-year-old second-level general, it seems somewhat shocking.But if this kid is in the Central Army, based on his record, isn't he worthy of this rank?

What's more, have you ever seen that kid wearing the general school uniform issued by Old Jiang?Even if he was promoted to lieutenant general, wouldn't he always see us old people, one by one?This kid doesn't take the military rank given by Lao Jiang seriously at all.

It's rare for Chiang to give us an army number right now, do you think we can push it out?Moreover, the independent column is in the name of an independent division. In fact, their strength may have far exceeded the establishment of an army.

With such a number, we can still do a lot of things in the future.And I think that if this kid is promoted to a general, and he needs to deal with people from the Central Army in the future, I believe it will be very useful to send him up! "

Compared with Boss Peng, who is worried about He Zhengdao's promotion, it will make other main teachers have opinions.But in Mr. Zhu's view, he was too fussy about the military rank given by the government, which showed that such a person might not be on the side of the Eighth Route Army.

Even now, among the ten main division commanders, there are still people with the rank of major general.But there is also the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in the central government. These ten main division commanders all treat everyone equally, and they don't feel that there is any distinction between high and low.

If it weren't for the current situation, it would not be suitable for the Eighth Route Army to carry out military reforms. Boss Zhu also felt that no one would have any objections to conferring the same military ranks on these division commanders.After all, they are the Eighth Route Army, not the central army of the government.

Besides, whether it is a lieutenant general or an admiral.As far as the government is concerned, apart from giving the rank of deputy, the government has selectively forgotten all the treatment that generals and lieutenants should enjoy.Is it really necessary for such a lieutenant general to care so much?

On the other hand, Boss Peng, who heard this, sighed leisurely: "Commander-in-Chief, if everyone can be as big and tolerant as you are, there won't be so many things. Xiao He's promotion this time is really a bit Eye-catching!"

"Huaigui, do you think there is a problem with Xiao He's promotion to this general based on Xiao He's military exploits?"Would you be jealous of him? '

'How can it be!This kid is good at fighting, and he is also humble and kind.Such a young man is too late to appreciate, how can he be jealous?What's more, does this kid dare to show off in front of Lao Tzu? '

'That's terrible!Now that we know what kind of virtue this kid is, do we need to pay too much attention to this general's promotion?The focus of our attention should be the new 67th Army designation given by Lao Jiang! '

Boss Zhu, who laughed and made a little joke with Boss Peng, didn't care about Lao Jiang's promotion order to He Zhengdao at all.On the contrary, what he valued more was the new 67th division designation given by the Central Army to the independent division, and that was the key point.

But Boss Peng still said: "Commander-in-Chief, if we accept the sugar-coated shells given by Lao Jiang, we must also notify the whole army. Although our officers and soldiers don't care much about the ranks given by Lao Jiang, some people will feel envious after all. ?”

'Envy, if you are really envious, then come up with real combat exploits.If anyone can do what Xiao He does, I will personally send a power call to Lao Jiang and ask him to give him another rank of general.Who dares to say that they have this ability?

Huaigui, I am in my early fifties this year.For me, it doesn't really matter whether I'm an admiral or not.The most important thing is that our revolutionary ideals must be realized.How old will we be if we can achieve our revolutionary goals?

In the future, if this country wants to revive and grow, we old guys may not be able to survive for a few years.We also watched Xiao He grow up with one hand. His ideas are very different from ours, but he is very patriotic and loves our party and army.

Such a young man, why not let him carry more burdens?And the chairman also told me that this year at the Sixth Plenary Session of the Central Committee, he is going to hold a certain position in the government and be added as an alternate member of the Central Committee.

As for those who have no ability but only know how to envy others, why do we need to pay too much attention to them?If Xiao He Neng can't deal with these petty bastards, do you think he can take on even greater burdens in the future? '

As the commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, Mr. Zhu also knows that in the future, it will be the younger generation of military generals and political backbones who will lead the army and even the country.The training of young cadres is also the work that the Eighth Route Army is currently focusing on.

The echelon construction is the long-term vision put forward by Mao Taizu.Although they are now, it is still too early to talk about retiring or retiring to the second line.But from Mao Taizu's layout, Boss Zhu could somewhat see a trace of Mao Taizu's intentions.

At least judging from the talents He Zhengdao has shown so far, he is an all-rounder.In terms of military and politics, although He Zhengdao is better at military affairs, it doesn't mean that He Zhengdao doesn't understand a little politics.

Even in the eyes of Taizu Mao and Boss Zhu, He Zhengdao is a young man who understands the world.If the Eighth Route Army really had a chance to change its face in the future, how long can these old people last?

And what about He Zhengdao?Among the Eighth Route Army, he is recognized as the military general who understands the international situation best.In addition, his foreign language proficiency, even some of the translators currently in the central government, have to be admired.

How important such a talent is to the Eighth Route Army, does Boss Zhu not know?What's more, it's a mediocrity not to be envied by others. Boss Zhu thinks there is some truth to this.

While the two were discussing, the communications officer in the confidential room quickly walked in and said, "Commander-in-Chief, President Peng, Central Emergency Telegram!"

Mr. Zhu, who received the telegram, glanced at the telegram and said with a smile: "Look! I just said that the chairman and I have the same thoughts. Eat the candy and send the shells back. Call Enlai back and leave the matter to the Let them decide for themselves!

I believe that both Enlai and Zuo Quan are trustworthy comrades of our party and army.As for Xiao He, besides us, it may be very difficult for others to take advantage of him.As for the talks, let them decide for themselves! "

After handing over the decision-making power to Zhou Enlai and Zuo Quan, Boss Zhu also quietly looked forward to the outcome of the negotiation.In contrast, Lao Jiang, who received the telegram from He Yingqin, felt a little angry.

He said directly: "Mother Xipi, their appetite is too big! I gave them a military number, what else do they want? They want military salary, and our military salary is still in shortfall!"

Hearing the words of Lao Jiang who was a little angry, the attendant was hard to answer.After all, it's hard for him to say much about this kind of thing.Even if he knows that the so-called designation and military rank given to the Eighth Route Army are really not as good as real money!

After a while, Lao Jiang finally knew that this matter would not benefit the Eighth Route Army at all, but it might be a bit difficult.But he also knew that if he could bring back those Japanese prisoners of war, it would still be helpful for him to apply for foreign aid.

In the end, he said: "Call Minister He back and tell him that the government can squeeze out a month's worth of military pay at most. Another point is, let him ask for as much as possible about the Japanese prisoners of war."

At this moment, the attendant couldn't help but said: "Committee, shall we bring back the injured Japanese major general? According to the telegram sent back by Minister He, the situation of the Japanese major general is not optimistic.

If he dies on the way back, I'm afraid it will be criticized by then, right?Although the death is also helpful for our anti-war propaganda, I am worried that the other party's death in the middle will make the Japanese army make remarks that are not good for us! "

After being reminded by the attendant, Lao Jiang was silent for a while and then said: "Let Minister He decide this matter on his own! If the safety of the other party cannot be guaranteed, then this Japanese major general will not be brought back for the time being, and the remaining one must be escorted back."

'Yes, delegate! '

It is undoubtedly very distressing for Lao Jiang to reissue one month's military salary.After all, the Eighth Route Army did not have only three main divisions in history, but a full ten main divisions.Reissue of one month's military expenses is actually quite a lot! (To be continued.)

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

While waiting for instructions from the Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army headquarters, He Zhengdao's heart was actually very heavy.As a soldier, especially a senior general of the Eighth Route Army, He Zhengdao knew that it was impossible not to get involved in politics.

From the middle of the Long March to the end of the Long March, he pulled up an independent column from scratch, and He Zhengdao wanted to stay away from the central government and the headquarters.This is not to say that he wants to start anew, but that he hopes to be less involved in right and wrong.

It's just that He Zhengdao at this moment finally understands what it means to be "people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes".Even though he has always kept a low profile, he still has to guard against open and dark arrows from inside and outside.

It can be said that when He Yingqin issued the general promotion order, He Zhengdao knew that the Central Army was not stupid and would not play such a cheap trick.Appropriately giving the Eighth Route Army the designation it has always wanted has become a reasonable thing.

Taking the title of general and taking over the designation of the new 67th Army means that he has officially stepped into the vortex of right and wrong.In the future, in addition to increasing internal doubts about him, he also needs to beware of confrontations with the Central Army.

Even if He Zhengdao knew that, in the Eighth Route Army and the Party, there are still many high-level leaders who trust him.It's just that many times, even Taizu Mao and Boss Zhu are beyond their power.

At this moment, He Zhengdao finally realized that he was pushed to the front to act as a shield.The Eighth Route Army needs him to stand at the front, to show and prove the existence of the Eighth Route Army, and to gain more support from the army and the people.

Lao Jiang and the others also hoped that with the help of promotion and designation, they would get the intention of transferring He Zhengdao to join the war next time.If he took the number given by Lao Jiang, when he needed to go out in the future, he might not be able to refuse.

Everyone knows the truth that people are short-handed and cannibals are short-mouthed.Once the independent column is reorganized into the No.60 Seventh Army, if the Central Army needs to be transferred in the future, even if the approval of the Eighth Route Army is also required, there will be more reasons.

It may not be of much use to transfer a division to participate in the battle in the south.One of the main forces of the adjustable Eighth Route Army went south to participate in the war, and it was even a main force with many meritorious deeds. At least many people would support it.

Looking out of the window at the still busy but peaceful Yulin City, He Zhengdao felt that the place he guarded might soon be peaceful.I'm afraid that he will be ready for the next battle in Wuhan.

On the other hand, Zhou Enlai and Zuo Quan, who sat in the room and communicated with the central government and the headquarters, paid more attention to the calls from the central government and the headquarters.Until the two realized that He Zhengdao, who had entered the room, suddenly seemed very silent.

In this silence, there was a trace of unwilling depression, which made Zhou Enlai very concerned and said: "Zhengdao, what's the matter? Are you worried about the promotion of the central government and the headquarters?"

'no!Thank you, Vice Chairman Zhou, I just thought of some things and felt a little melancholy.No matter what decisions the central government and the headquarters make, I am a soldier and a party member, and I will obey the decisions of the central government and the headquarters. '
