Han Yunhua's words once again caused a lot of trouble in the conference room, although everyone knew in their hearts that the Eighth Route Army at this time was not yet able to compete with the Japanese army, and it was inferior to the real main force of the National People's Government, but everyone knew this kind of words, but no one dared to make such a big announcement.

However, Han Yunhua also had his own considerations, and he also knew that as soon as this came out, there would be no reasonable solution, and he would be in a lot of trouble at that time. But Han Yunhua still said it, because the battle some time ago made him realize that the strength of the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region alone is still a little inadequate, and with the full cooperation of all units of the Eighth Route Army, the combat effectiveness of the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region can be brought into full play by 200, so it is urgent to improve the combat effectiveness of all units of the Eighth Route Army.

"Comrade Han Yunhua, since you said that the Eighth Route Army is not the real Jīng Rui, then you have to come up with a perfect way to improve the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army, otherwise there will be no place for my old face," Commander-in-Chief Zhu said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Among the leaders of the central government, if it is the most important thing to fight with Han Yunhua at this time, it is still Commander-in-Chief Zhu, so it is Commander-in-Chief Zhu who knows Han Yunhua the most, and with his understanding of Han Yunhua, he knows very well that if he is not completely sure, Han Yunhua will not say such a thing. In his understanding, although Han Yunhua is young, and the things he does sometimes seem naïve or impulsive, he knows how powerful this guy is when he looks at it afterwards. As far as the battle in the Saibei area is concerned, the pre-war intelligence showed that the Japanese army of 150,000 jīng Rui attacked the Saibei with all its might, and according to the meaning of the central government, the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region tried not to fight with the Japanese army as much as possible, and focused on preserving its strength. But this guy fell into the encirclement of the Japanese army in a short period of time, and even put himself in the encirclement of the Japanese army, but he frightened these leaders of the central government. However, the final result of the matter was a crushing defeat for the Japanese army, not only losing a provincial capital city like Zhangjiakou, but also a major seaport city like Tianjin, according to the latest Japanese newspapers, the direct economic losses of the Japanese army in Tianjin were as high as 690 million yen, and the indirect losses were as high as more than 1 billion yen. Although the Party Central Committee did not particularly believe in this data of the Japanese army, after all, the yen at this time was not comparable to the yen in later generations, and the yen at this time was still worth tǐng, and the loss of 700 million yen was not a small number, but it can also reflect from the side that the loss of the Japanese army would definitely not be small.

What's even more powerful is that after this battle, the territory of the Méng Ancient Military Region was expanded by one-fifth, and it was connected with the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, forcing the Japanese military headquarters to carry out a large-scale purge of the top level of the North China Front Headquarters, and the former commander of the North China Front Army, General Binshan Yuan, was ordered to commit suicide by disembowelment, and the old opponent of the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region, Yamashita Fengwen, was also sent to the military court. Now it seems how correct Han Yunhua's decision was at that time, and Han Yunhua himself showed extreme confidence from the beginning.

Regarding Commander-in-Chief Zhu's words, Han Yunhua made a solemn promise, and he said loudly: "I personally and the entire Inner Méng Ancient Military Region will definitely not be stingy in improving the combat effectiveness of all units of the Eighth Route Army, and I am also working hard in this regard." ”

"Comrade Han Yunhua, I want to know how your Inner Méng Ancient Military Region trains its troops, and the military quality of the soldiers you want to talk about may not necessarily be much stronger than the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, and I think it is much worse than the regular troops of the National People's Government, but why these people were able to defeat the Japanese army in Saibei, this point makes me very curious." Although the chairman has never officially been on the battlefield, he has not received orthodox military training. However, he was able to strategize and win a decisive victory thousands of miles away, so he was still very concerned about the combat effectiveness of the troops.

Han Yunhua replied loudly: "We have our own reasons for the strength of the combat effectiveness of the various units of the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region, and the reason why we dare to call ourselves JĪNG Rui without shame. Even if a large part of the troops cannot be regarded as jīng rui for the time being, they already have the most important conditions to become jīng rui, just like the various units of the Eighth Route Army. In order to train a unit into a real sharp force, I think we should start from the following aspects: First of all, I have always believed that strengthening ideological and political work and improving the combat effectiveness of the troops is the foundation for improving the combat effectiveness of the troops, and it is particularly important to strengthen the ideological and political work of the soldiers compared with the equipment and high-intensity training of the soldiers. We must strengthen the sense of historical mission and honor of all officers and men and forge an iron will. To continuously enhance the extensive ideological and political education, it is necessary to fully carry out self-education among the masses, guide officers and men to discover and train top soldiers and strong soldiers, and mobilize soldiers to actively participate in education on their own, so that they can know what they are fighting for and what they are sacrificing. Through carrying out activities such as the "Grievance Campaign" and "Propaganda on the Cruelty of the Japanese Puppet Army," we have achieved the effect of political and ideological education in our ears, hearts, and brains, enhanced the attractiveness and appeal of education, and enabled all officers and men to deeply understand the urgency and necessity of building an iron army, consciously devote themselves to duty training, and cultivate a tenacious work style. It is all the more necessary for us to combine the enhancement of the combat effectiveness of the troops with education on ideals and beliefs, education in tradition, and the historical mission of contemporary soldiers, and adopt flexible and diverse methods to forge and cultivate a fighting spirit of "iron will, tenacious work style, and courage to fight and win." With steely firm conviction as the soul of battle, it penetrates into the bone marrow of every officer and soldier, melts into the blood of every officer and soldier, and embodies it in every training and combat action to overcome difficulties. So that our troops can be vigorous and resolute in duty training and combat, not afraid of fatigue, and continue to fight; In battle, be brave and tenacious, determined, not alarmed, and not in danger. ”,

"The second is to improve the quality of cadres and strengthen the building of the contingent of cadres. The vast majority of the troops under our leadership are formed from poor peasants, and the vast majority of military cadres are promoted from brave soldiers, and there are only a few cadres in our army who have received orthodox military education, and the vast majority of cadres, including myself, rely on experience to fight wars. Relying on experience to fight wars has achieved quite good results when serving as grassroots cadres, and the positive aspects are still relatively large. However, once promoted to the senior cadre at the division and brigade level, it is incompetent, so I think that military cadres who have not received orthodox military education must study when they become regimental commanders, otherwise it will be a bad thing to continue to be promoted. Therefore, we must solve the problem of cadres in the troops, and we do not have our own huge military academy support like the National People's Government, and we can continuously send qualified personnel to the troops to support the construction of the troops, but we must not allow this kind of thing to develop like this. We don't have our own teaching resources, but we do have our own university hall, and we have explored our own path to this problem. When our troops arrived in Saibei, there were only 416 people in the whole regiment, and there were only nine cadres including platoon commanders, among which the cadres at the battalion level of the deputy regiment were only me and Comrade Ye Baoguo. Since the young cadres should be trained by themselves, how to train them? At that time, we had three squad leaders in one squad and four platoon commanders in a platoon, so that when the unit was expanded, the cadres would be settled, and through this method we solved the first batch of cadres in the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region. Now we have our own military academy, and although the current Saibei Military Command Academy has only five subjects, it has more than 2,000 students and has provided more than 1,500 qualified grassroots cadres for the military region. Therefore, I believe that in order to enhance the combat effectiveness of the troops, it is necessary to solve the problem of cadres in the troops, and this point brooks no delay. ”

"Again, a sharp army, a strong fighting force must be a well-disciplined and rigorous army. Therefore, in order to enhance the combat effectiveness of the troops, it is necessary to strengthen the building of ideological style and cultivate a style of discipline like steel. In ancient and modern times, in China and abroad, all armies with combat effectiveness, apart from other factors, are all armies with strict discipline. The victory or defeat of a battle, a campaign, and even an entire war is closely related to the discipline of the army. Discipline is an important factor in maintaining the unity of the army and enhancing its combat effectiveness. If discipline is strict, the officers and men of the whole army can be united into one person, forming a high degree of centralization and unity, and conquering the attack, defending the defense, and winning the battle. For example, in 1931, during the third anti-"encirclement and suppression" battle of the Central Red Army, more than 30,000 Red Army officers and men hid in the jungle on dozens of hills in accordance with the orders of the General Headquarters. After the unbearable daylight had passed, our army suddenly launched a fierce attack on the enemy, and won three battles in four days, destroying two enemy divisions and two regiments. This highly conscious discipline of our army played a tremendous role in the battle. How can we strengthen the building of discipline in the troops? In my opinion, to strengthen the building of discipline in the troops, it is necessary to be reminded of the need to do so frequently, and discipline is a kind of military quality that is important in "regularity"; in the process of improving the combat effectiveness of the troops, the ideological work of regularity should permeate the life of duty training and imperceptibly affect the daily cultivation of the soldiers. The first is to continuously enhance the effectiveness of the ideological work on a regular basis. It is necessary to focus the efforts of indoctrination and education on solving the problems of tendencies in the life of duty training and the various practical ideological problems of officers and men, so as to reflect a certain depth. When solving specific problems, we should avoid the method of "coaxing, smoothing, and circumventing", dare to carry out criticism and self-criticism, and carry out work through multiple channels and forms through activities such as conducting appraisal competitions, publicizing advanced models, and group evaluations and group discussions, so as to ensure that the ideological work on a regular basis is effective and effective. Secondly, it is necessary to constantly strengthen the principle of regular ideological work. It is necessary to combine regular ideological work with regular management work, strengthen the firm sense of discipline and work style among officers and men, and build up the iron will of the iron army troops. It is necessary to achieve both ideological enlightenment and behavioral restraint, continuous defuse and effective prevention, and strict regulations and intensified supervision at the same time, so that the vast number of officers and men can profoundly understand the truth that "strictness is love, and laxity is harmful," profoundly absorb the lesson of failing to be lenient and soft, and firmly grasp the line of defense of party discipline and state law and political ideology. We must do it all the time, do everything, do it everywhere, and do it for everyone. Through extensive ideological mobilization, effective measures should be taken to mobilize all officers and men to participate in the active ideological work of the Iron Army, so as to achieve the effect of benefiting others and benefiting oneself, so that the ideological work of the regular ideology will penetrate into all aspects, and the iron will of the Iron Army troops will be strengthened. ”,

"At the same time, a very important way to strengthen the army is to strengthen the ties with the masses of the people, to build a steely military-civilian relationship, which is very important relative to our Eighth Route Army, we must always improve the combat effectiveness of the army and build a harmonious military-civilian relationship of major decisions and deployment, and strive to build a "close to the people and love the people sunshine troops", the results of the army's work are more and better reflected in the benefit of the people, at a higher level to promote the construction of harmonious military-civilian relations. It is necessary to conscientiously study new situations, solve new problems, actively explore the building of harmonious military-civilian relations, and guide the troops to appreciate the weal and woe of the masses in battle, understand the needs of the masses, learn the ways and means of doing mass work, and ................start with "a salutation, a greeting, a smile, and a little help"

"The last point is the issue of the weapons and equipment of the troops, and a soldier who does not have a good weapon is a daughter-in-law who does not have a pot of rice, and cannot do anything. But we don't have the strength to produce weapon shells ourselves, what should we do? Isn't it possible that we won't resist Japan without weapons and ammunition, of course not, we can also solve this problem through multiple ways, and when we came to Saibei, it wasn't like calling huāzi, but now we not only have our own arsenal, but also formed our own chariot troops, so compared to the above points, this is also easy to solve. ”

Speaking of this, Han Yunhua also felt that his mouth was a little dry, he picked up the water cup on the podium and poured a full cup of cold white into it, and then concluded: "Comrades, the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the troops is not just the replacement of weapons and equipment, it requires a multi-pronged approach. The reason why our Inner Méng Ancient Military Region has been able to achieve such great results in just two or three years is because we have not only grasped the bodies of the soldiers, but also grasped their thoughts, so that they can integrate into the big collective in action and thought at the same time. Of course, what I said is my experience in leading troops in the past few years, and it is not any advanced theoretical knowledge, and I say it so that everyone can have a reference. ”

After speaking, Han Yunhua stepped down from the podium and returned to his seat. After sitting down, Han Yunhua took out his pocket watch and looked at it, and found that he had been talking for more than two hours.

Han Yunhua's words may not be very profound in later generations, as long as any military cadet can say it, it is not just a theory of simultaneous improvement of software and hardware, but it is definitely a new theory of profundity in this era. After listening to Han Yunhua's report, the chairman, Vice Chairman Zhou, and Commander-in-Chief Zhu looked at each other, and they all saw shock in their eyes, and they were extremely shocked. In particular, Vice Chairman Zhou grew up watching Han Yunhua, and Han Yunhua is just as he said in his report just now, he himself is a complete mud tuǐ, and he has not received any kind of formal military education at all, but he can say such a profound theoretical policy for managing the army.

From this point of view, our Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army and the troops in the base areas of other military regions are far from meeting the requirements of the Jīng Rui troops, but as Comrade Han Yunhua said, we already have the necessary conditions to become a real Jīng Rui, as long as we work together to build a real steel lion, it is completely promising, and the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region has made a good start for us. Our other troops should learn from the experience of the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region and ............... it at an early date," the chairman made a final summary of the discussion.

Originally, according to the meaning of the chairman and others, they were also ready to let other military and political cadres say their own views, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary, what Han Yunhua just said is definitely a completely new point of view on governing the army, and there are examples such as the ancient military region of the Inner Méng placed there, comparing the theory and the results, almost everyone thinks that what Han Yunhua said is right, at this time, the eyes of many members of the central working group looking at Han Yunhua have changed a lot, and it is definitely not the disdain and jealousy that they had before, but real admiration.

Seeing that the time was already more than four o'clock, so at Han Yunhua's suggestion, the next group of people went to visit the major military factories in Guisui of the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region, because Guisui was too close to the enemy-occupied area, so almost all the arsenals were not in Guisui, but in Baotou, which was farther away. However, Guisui is the largest production base of the military uniforms and quilts produced here, accounting for more than 80% of the total demand of the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region, so it is necessary to inspect these large military factories.

After seeing the production method of the semi-assembly line of the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region, the chairman and others finally knew why the soldiers of the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region all came from in beautiful new military uniforms. After inspecting the máo spinning factory, Commander-in-Chief Zhu strongly asked Han Yunhua to prepare a military uniform for each soldier of the Eighth Route Army, and it was a new military uniform like the mí color uniform.

In addition, a large number of máo spinning equipment and finished cotton cloth and finished cotton clothes were dismantled from Tianjin this time, so the cotton clothes of the various units of the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region have been solved this year, and even if all the rest are given to the Eighth Route Army, it will not affect the production and life of the Inner Méng Ancient Military Region, so Han Yunhua readily agreed to Commander-in-Chief Zhu's request.
