Chapter 509 Troop Reorganization

"Commander, political commissar. General Yang Jingyu, commander-in-chief of the Anti-Japanese War, is the first deputy commander of our Northeast Field Army?? And Chief Peng Zhen will be the director of the *** Department of our Northeast Field Army?" After reading, the political commissar handed it over.

A central personnel appointment. Chief of Staff Li Qing was shocked and could not help but exclaimed:

"Haha, Lao Li, not only you, but even I was shocked by the sudden decision of the central government after reading this appointment. You know, Comrade Peng Zhen is the veteran of our ***, and he is very concerned about the local government.

It can be said that he has very rich experience in work and economic construction. With Comrade Peng Zhen serving as the director of the First *** Department of our Northeast Field Army, in the future, after we establish base areas in the three northeastern provinces, various local matters can be directly dealt with

Leave it to Comrade Peng Zhen to preside over. With just a few of us, we can have enough time to deal with various military matters. This has only advantages and no disadvantages for the development of our Northeast Field Army. In addition, General Yang Jingyu can

With the anti-alliance forces, he fought hard and arduous battles with the Japanese Kwantung Army for several years in the harsh environment of the three eastern provinces. From this point of view, General Yang Jingyu’s combat mode against the Kwantung Army in the three eastern provinces can be said to be

, has a very rich understanding and response experience. This has only advantages and no disadvantages for us to march into the Northeast and fight against the Japanese army in the Northeast." Commander Liu Hua replied.

"Yes, Lao Li, with the joining of these two old comrades, the strength of our Northeast Field Army will only increase, not decrease. The reason why the commander and I are so anxious to come back is because the army urgently needs to carry out

Reorganization. The central government only gave us one month. After one month, several leaders of the central government will go to Taiyuan in person to review the Northeast Field Army we have just reorganized and test our results..." Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan said with deep approval.

He nodded and said.

"What, the chairman came to Taiyuan City in person to review the Northeast Field Army we just reorganized?" Li Qing opened his mouth and asked in disbelief, his eyes full of doubts.

"Old Li, not only will the chairman come, but also Vice Chairman Zhou, the Commander-in-Chief and several other heads of the Central Committee will come. In addition, let me tell you another good news. After our army sends troops to the Northeast, the entire Taiyuan City will become a party

The new office location of the Central Committee. In other words, all the organs of the Central Committee will be successfully moved to Taiyuan in one month. In the future, Taiyuan City will become the new headquarters of the Party Central Committee..." said the Chief of Staff.

In Li Qing's shocked eyes, Liu Hua continued...

"So, Chief of Staff, time is very tight. In general, the Party Central Committee has only given us one month. And the three of us must seize these three months to complete the work before the Party Central Committee arrives.

All troops have been reorganized and have been inspected by the heads of the Party Central Committee. This is the guarantee made by the commander and I in front of Chairman Mao, Vice Chairman Zhou and the Commander-in-Chief of the Party Central Committee," political commissar Luo Ronghuan said.

"Commander, political commissar, the newly established Northeast Field Army, and the specific establishment of each unit, has the Party Central Committee decided?" After hearing the words of the commander and political commissar, Chief of Staff Li Qing slowly put away the shock on his face.

His expression was replaced by a serious look. Looking at the commander and political commissar in front of him, Li Qing asked quickly.

"Chief of Staff, regarding the organization of the troops, the heads of the Central Committee have already made a decision at the *** Bureau meeting. The newly established Northeast Field Army includes a total of five field columns, a special forces column, plus other directly affiliated troops.

, with a total strength of more than 120,000 people, including the first, second, third, and fourth field columns, plus the special forces column, the headquarters guard division, and the agencies directly under the headquarters, they were adapted from the various units of the *** division

As for the fifth field column of the field army, it was adapted from the anti-alliance forces... This is also one of the reasons why the central government decided to appoint General Yang Jingyu as deputy commander of the field army..." After hearing the question from Chief of Staff Li Qing, the political commissar

Luo Ronghuan said with certainty.

"Commander, political commissar, and four field columns, according to the current organization of our *** division. Three military divisions and one directly affiliated column are just enough to form four field columns. As for our special forces column, it can be directly formed by our heavy artillery.

Brigade, armored brigade, cavalry brigade and several other directly affiliated units... However, there is still a problem, that is, the issue of the direct commander of each unit. We must make a decision in advance... Otherwise, when the time comes, the troops

The reorganization will definitely reach a deadlock. After all, an excellent commander can, to a certain extent, be regarded as the soul of an army..." Chief of Staff Li Qing replied.

"Well, Lao Li is right. We must first solve the appointment problem of commanders at all levels of the army. According to the requirements, our Northeast Field Army will be reorganized into five field columns. Each field column includes three main divisions and one cavalry regiment.

, an artillery regiment and other directly affiliated units have a total strength of 20,000. The first column includes three main divisions, one, two, and three. The second column includes three main divisions, four, five, six. The third column includes three main divisions, seven and three.

The fourth column includes three main divisions, eleven and twelve, and the fifth column includes three main divisions, which are thirteen, fourteen, and fifteen. In addition, each main division includes three main regiments, one artillery battalion, one cavalry battalion, and one

The total number of engineer companies and other directly affiliated troops is 6,000. As for the final troops directly affiliated with the field army headquarters, they include a three-regiment guard division and other directly affiliated agencies. Now the commanders of the 1, 2, 3, and 5 four field columns have been confirmed, but the first

The commanders and political commissars of the Fourth Field Column and the Special Forces Column have not been confirmed yet. Therefore, we must first resolve the specific personnel appointments of these people." Liu Huashen said with approval.

"Now our military region headquarters only has these few people. It is simply impossible to redeploy one person to serve as the commander and political commissar of the fourth field column. It is too late for the central government to make the appointment.

My idea is that in order to ensure the stability of each unit, the best way now is to select one person from the three brigade commanders to serve as the commander. As for the political commissar and chief of staff, they are also selected from the three brigade commanders.

"As for the commander of the special forces column and the political commissar, because the types of arms in this unit are too complex, the existence of the commander has little meaning. Therefore, I suggest that the two of us serve concurrently..." Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan thought about it.

I thought, and said with certainty.

"Well, the political commissar's idea is very good. Only in this way can the army develop stably during the next coup... I completely agree with the political commissar's idea and directly promote the three brigade commanders. The other one is Lao Li. Now I

I give you an important task, giving your staff two days to finalize the appointments of all commanders above the regiment level of the four field columns according to the wishes of the three military division commanders. Then, leave it to me and

The two political commissars will review it, and after passing it, it will be reported to the central government, and *** will be asked to conduct the final review and make the final decision. Then, we will start to implement the specific reorganization plan for the affiliated units..." Liu Hua affirmed

said.,

"Yes, Commander, I promise to complete the mission. In two days, I will give you and the political commissar a satisfactory list of personnel. Commander and political commissar, please rest assured..." Chief of Staff Li Qing replied with confidence.

In the next two days, the sky above the entire Shanxi Military Region was almost completely covered by the constant flow of telegraph signals. Under the continuous communication between the Taiyuan headquarters and the various military divisions of the Shanxi Military Region, one by one the main division commanders, one by one

The appointment of the leader of the main regiment was finalized. In less than two days, a specific list of commanders above the Northeast Field Corps level appeared in the hands of Commander Liu Hua and Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan.

Commander of the Northeast Field Army Liu Hua, First Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan, First Deputy Commander Yang Jingyu, Director of the First Political Department Peng Zhen, Chief of Staff Li Qing. Liu Hao, Commander of the Communications Battalion under the headquarters, and Qian, Director of the Security Department

Zhong Hua, Director of the Intelligence Division Meng Zhongheng, Director of the Logistics Division Wang Daoguang, Director of the Field Hospital Wang Zixuan... Commander of the Guard Division Bruce Lee, Captain Liu Xiaogang of the Special Operations Brigade, Political Commissar Luo Zhi...

The commander of the First Field Column, Sun Xingbang, and the political commissar Zhao Dahe, have three main divisions, an artillery regiment, a cavalry regiment, an engineering regiment, and a directly affiliated guard battalion:

The First Division Commander Li Yong and Political Commissar Fang Wenyuan have three main regiments under their jurisdiction: an artillery battalion, a cavalry battalion, an engineering battalion, and a directly affiliated guard company...

Second Division Commander Yang Dezhi, Political Commissar Su Jin. Third Division Commander Lin Wei, Political Commissar Lu Jiahan….

The second field column commander Gao Yuan, political commissar Chen Dazhong. Among them, the fourth division commander Guo Chengzhu, political commissar He Zhiyuan. The fourth division commander Li Desheng, political commissar Yu Ming. The fifth division commander Yang Dayi, political commissar Wu Tao...

"Lao Li, have you consulted the commanders to confirm these commanders? After all, the commanders will be their direct superiors before and in the future. They know more about these commanders than we do.

More thorough..." Looking at the list in front of him, Liu Hua nodded with satisfaction. Then, he asked Chief of Staff Li Qing in front of him...

"Commander, political commissar, don't worry. The commanders below have all nodded to the commander's confirmation, otherwise I wouldn't dare to show it in front of you like this..." Chief of Staff Li Qing nodded.

said.

"Okay, let's settle it like this. Political Commissar, please go and forward this list to *** verbatim, and ask *** for approval... As soon as the telegram of approval from the Military Commission comes down, we will start working on it.

Reorganize the troops..." After receiving a positive answer from Chief of Staff Li Qing, Liu Hua immediately showed a smile on his face and ordered firmly...

The final result was no surprise. On the night when the telegram was sent, the Taiyuan headquarters received a reply from the central government. As for the reported personnel appointment list, the central government did not make any changes, directly agreed and filed it. At the same time, the request

Liu Hua and Luo Ronghuan speed up the reorganization of the army...

"The political commissar, chief of staff, and the central government have agreed to our plan and are waiting for us to complete the reorganization of the troops. In this way, tonight, the three of us will work hard all night to draft specific reorganization plans for each unit. Tomorrow in the morning

Early in the morning, it was sent to all ministries to start specific reorganization. Then, the reorganized troops will be assembled in Taiyuan City to prepare for the review of the Party Central Committee..." Looking at the call from the Central Committee in his hand, Liu Hua's mouth showed a hint of

With a smile, he said to the two partners in front of him.

"Commander, we still follow the old rules. You first express your thoughts. Then, we will make the final additions to your opinions..." Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan said with a smile on his face...

"In this case, I have a suggestion: Each regiment that is undergoing reorganization is required to assign a soldier from each infantry squad to be responsible for staying behind. In this case, each main division can allocate the strength of a main battalion. From the local area

After adding some new soldiers to the army and militia forces, after the three main regiments are transferred, there will be one main regiment of troops to make up for the empty defense left due to the large-scale deployment of troops. What do you think?" Liu Hua asked?

…

"Well, in this case, each of the three military divisions can leave three main regiments of troops. Plus local troops and militia forces from various places, there will be absolutely no problem in defending a military division. I agree with you

According to my opinion, one company of troops should be transferred from each regiment... But Commander, should the transferred company be directly supplemented from local troops to ensure that the troops enter the Northeast at full strength..." Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan nodded and continued

Asked?

"No, this company's organization is left behind. Our soldiers are unfamiliar with the terrain and harsh environment of the Northeast. At that time, if we want to carry out the operation smoothly, we must ensure that every

Each infantry squad must have a local soldier as a guide. Therefore, after entering the three eastern provinces and joining forces with the Anti-Japanese Alliance, I plan to transfer some soldiers from the Anti-Japanese Alliance and add one more Anti-Union soldier to each infantry squad.

..." Liu Hua said with certainty...

"This is a good way. This will allow our 100,000 troops to become familiar with the terrain and harsh environment of the three northeastern provinces and enter combat status in the shortest possible time... Commander, your decision is really wise. I completely agree with your suggestion."

, leaving an infantry company vacancy in each regiment to supplement the local fighters of the Anti-Japanese Alliance..." Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan said with a look of realization...

"Commander, political commissar, this method is really good. It directly solves one of the biggest disadvantages of our army after entering the Northeast. By then, our 100,000-strong army, led by these anti-alliance fighters who are familiar with the terrain and environment, will definitely be able to

Catch the little devil by surprise..." Chief of Staff Li Qing reacted and said with the same excitement.

"Well, then this matter has been decided. Each infantry regiment will leave one company of troops for expansion. Next, we will discuss the issue of troops carrying heavy weapons. Political Commissar, please tell me what you think first.

?" Liu Hua asked.

"Commander and Chief of Staff, this time when we march into the Northeast, we must pass through the numerous security lines set up by the Japanese army. More importantly, many terrains are very unfavorable for us to march with heavy weapons. Therefore,

What I mean is that the heavy weapons of each artillery regiment should be kept as much as possible..." Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan thought for a while and said with certainty.

"Yes, the political commissar is right. During this period, I have never left my eyes on the military map of the three eastern provinces. I want to find a passage for our 100,000 troops to enter the three eastern provinces quietly. However, half of the

Months have passed. The most convenient way to enter the three provinces of Dongshan is to rush through the Japanese defense line. Then, get into the vast mountains and use the cover of the mountains and forests to enter Dongshan Province and find the location of the Anti-Japanese Alliance.

Base area, and then rendezvous..." Chief of Staff Li Qing raised his head and said with certainty...

"Political Commissar and Chief of Staff, since you have reached a proposal for one, I have no objections. My idea is this. Each main regiment should retain three mortars, and the remaining artillery personnel,

All are used to carry artillery shells. Each artillery battalion of the main division carries three 75mm mountain guns that can be disassembled. As for the remaining artillery, they are also used to carry artillery shells. The artillery regiments of each column retain a 75mm field cannon.

In addition to the nine field guns of the artillery battalion, the remaining personnel also transported artillery shells. As for the heavy artillery brigade of the last special forces column, because the weight of the heavy artillery was so heavy, it was impossible for the troops to carry it. It was required that each heavy artillery regiment be allocated one

The artillery personnel of the battalion followed the troops into the Northeast. The remaining artillery personnel stayed in Shanxi and were reorganized by the Party Central Committee. However, although we cannot carry heavy artillery, we can use the thunderbolts that we have not used for a long time.

Carry. Order the heavy artillery brigade to carry 36 sky-blasting mines. As for the artillery shells, each sky-blasting mine carries thirty propellant packs, specifically responsible for providing heavy fire support to the troops..." Liu Hua ordered with certainty.

"Commander, what about the air defense brigade and armored brigade?" Chief of Staff Li Qing asked while taking notes.

"Half of the armored brigade, led by brigade commander Yang Jinghua, will follow us into the Northeast as the basis for future special forces columns. As for the air defense brigade, bring half of the anti-aircraft machine guns and one-third of the anti-aircraft artillery, and the remaining

Leave all the equipment and combat personnel behind..." Liu Hua ordered with a firm look on his face without even thinking about it.

"Yes, Commander..." the Chief of Staff nodded and replied...

In this way, the three people discussed all the plans related to the debate in the headquarters until the early morning, and finally formed a written document, which was ready to be sent to various units for implementation after dawn... And from this moment on

, the entire *** division began a month-long reorganization plan. In the next few years of the Anti-Japanese War, the Northeast Field Army of the Chinese ***, which was famous all over the world and had brilliant records, also spent this month.

Among them, slowly formed...
