Thinking of this, the two old commanders completely understood why Yang Zhen would rather risk not being able to change his clothes on time in the harsh winter at the negotiation table, and resolutely not make any concessions. There is no other reason, just so that the dream in his heart can come true and be truly realized.

And at this moment, he has come to the present, and there is no way back behind him. There will be no choice but to move forward desperately and achieve one's goals at any cost. But at least from the current point of view, he is still doing well, at least some shelves have been built, and the flesh and bones are gradually being enriched.

Of course, at this time, the two old commanders also figured out at this moment why Yang Zhen dared to be so tough at the negotiation table. In his mind, he must have his own alternative to the most urgent winter clothing problem at the moment. Otherwise, he, who has lived and fought in the Northeast for many years and knows more about the climate of North Manchuria, would not have refused to back down at this time......

To realize his dream, strength on the battlefield is the real foundation. Without the previous anti-union on the battlefield to attract the United States and Britain to dare to bet, then his dream can only be to think about it. If his troops were to freeze in the bitter cold of the coming winter, then he would have no confidence at all.

The reason why he dared to be so tough on the Soviet negotiating table at this critical moment was that he did not have a certain backhand, and he did not dare to make this bet. Because no one can afford to change it, and the consequences of failure at this time. Because even if you bluff, you have to have a certain amount of capital.

The Americans were not fools, and the Soviets were not stupid. You want their things, and if you don't exchange them for what you sell, they won't take care of you. There is no real free lunch in this world, and if you want to get it, you have to pay. In other words, if Yang Zhen didn't have this confidence, he probably wouldn't have put on such a tough attitude. Because once the army is unstable, he will not have the capital to realize his dream.

It's just that if the two old handsomes who were somewhat relieved because of this thought of this at this time, knew that Yang Zhen's real alternative only partially solved the problem, to be exact, it only solved the shirt and cotton hat, as for the cotton pants and cotton shoes had not yet landed, would they be stunned on the spot? Especially the commissar, whether he will go crazy on the spot or not, that's another matter.

And now the two old handsome, who have slightly eased the pressure in their hearts, look a little haggard because of overwork. Young people in their twenties, Yang Zhen, who was already dotted with stars in his ears, sighed slightly. It is said that it is difficult to hold on to a lonely tree, but the young man in front of him really held on like this.

Not only survived, but still able to do such a rare situation, the hard work and price paid in this are unimaginable to ordinary people. What kind of will made him survive in such a difficult and complex environment, the two old commanders couldn't imagine.

But there is one thing that the two old commanders know that the young man in front of him has chosen the most difficult path of all the roads he can choose. On this road, he not only has to spend countless efforts and costs, but also has to bear the pressure and burden that ordinary people cannot understand, and even some unnecessary misunderstandings and gossip.

In addition to being tough as steel in character, the two old handsome couldn't think of any other words to evaluate, the young man in front of them who had almost become a mystery in their eyes at the moment. Without such a character, it is impossible to bear this kind of unimaginable pressure no matter what.

However, relative to appreciation, the commander who no longer had any ideas for Yang Zhen at this time. In addition to this sentence, the political commissar always felt that the young man in front of him, in addition to being tough as steel, also had a trace of cunning that ordinary people were not easy to detect.

The negotiations between him and the Soviets that were currently underway, and the political commissar, who was already a little bit of a bad taste at this time, felt that he was playing a big trick on the Soviets. He clearly seized on the weakness of the Soviets and lured his opponents little by little. And judging from his table in the past few days, this set of designs is no longer a matter of one or two days.

If you use one sentence to describe it, I am afraid it can only be said that he has been planning for a long time. The consequences and process of this negotiation, he probably thought about what might happen today as early as when he asked Wang Guangyu to make a detour to Linxi through Outer Mongolia, and he had been waiting for this negotiation for a long time, waiting for the Soviets to send him to the door.

It's just that where he is under this trap, the political commissar has not sorted it out for a while. But the commissar felt that at the negotiating table, on the surface, the Soviets were very tough, but in fact they were always being led by the nose. After a few days of negotiations, a big circle was drawn, but the Soviets were again led to the starting point by him.

And he was able to do this, in addition to accurately judging the minds and personalities of the Soviets, he must have in his hands a certain unique source of information, or other secrets of the Soviets. Otherwise, how could he grasp the pulse of the Soviets so accurately. It's just that this question, although the political commissar obviously feels that something is wrong, but he can't ask it.

In the end, it is a political commissar who is from a political work background and has a lot of delicate thoughts compared to the commander. From Yang Zhen's few words, he keenly sensed that this guy must have done something to the Soviets. However, he also knew that Yang Zhen would never say what he had done, so he didn't continue to ask.

After a short silence, the commander still spoke: "We all understand your thoughts. But again, don't be greedy, you still have to do what you can. You can't eat a fat man in one bite, and everything must be done step by step. Being too impatient can only be counterproductive. ”

"We've been working hard for years, and we don't have any big problems persevering for two years. It's just that you are here, and the central government has always valued it, so you have to be doubly careful, don't lose big because of small things, and don't go to the strong at every turn. We still have a long way to go, so don't rush it. ”

"As for the adjustment of the equipment of the advance army, my personal feeling is that the current artillery structure is more reasonable. We are a little less mobile, and our tactical supply is relatively poor. There are too many artillery, and it is a burden for us. ”

"When compiling weapons and equipment, we should not only consider too much but too much, but also take into account the differences in the reality of various troops. At present, I feel that in addition to the standardization of the weapons of the Anti-United Nations, the rest of the troops should achieve the standardization of the caliber of weapons and reduce the pressure on logistics. ”

"You also know the current situation of the Kannai team, the caliber of weapons is too complicated. Although you provided a large amount of equipment before the first half of the year, and some of it was alleviated, it has not fundamentally solved the problem. Therefore, I believe that in the current adjustment of the weapons and equipment of the internal detachment, we should first solve the problem of a large number of calibers. As for the standard of armament, it is still necessary to take into account the need to adapt measures to local conditions. ”

"When your troops are fighting, there are a large number of trucks on the ground and planes in the sky to transport ammunition. The ammunition carrying capacity of one of your divisions is almost equivalent to that of the entire Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. Based on your current capacity, this heavy firepower can be larger. ”

"But other units do not have this condition, and most of the time, ammunition can only be carried with them when fighting. Shells are not rifle bullets, and each fighter can carry hundreds of rounds. The larger the caliber of the shell, the higher the requirements for transportation capacity. Relying on people to carry them on their shoulders alone, plus a small amount of animal transportation, how many rounds can be carried together? ”

"Once the limited carry-on shells are gone, the rear cannot be restocked. It is a pity that these cannons are discarded, and they become a burden with them, but they are a kind of strict Lang fee. Moreover, on the battlefield in Kannai, many troops were mainly engaged in mountain guerrilla warfare. It is more suitable for arming lighter infantry guns and mortars. And bulky field artillery and large-caliber artillery, for these troops, at least for now, are not very suitable. ”

"The current artillery establishment of the Advance Army is based on the original basis and readjusted according to the current establishment of the whole army. Although it is not as good as the firepower of an artillery regiment in a division of your army, it is the configuration that is most in line with the actual situation of the advance army at present. ”

"I see that the current brigade belongs to the mountain artillery battalion, equipped with six ninety-two infantry guns and six mountain guns. The regimental artillery is equipped with four rapid-fire guns and four mortars, which is still quite suitable for our mobility at present. I think that on the basis of the original, it is enough to add some kind of recoilless gun, or that kind of Taisho 11-year infantry gun. ”

"Moreover, after the completion of this operation to open up the communication line with the Guaninland Road, except for the cadres above the battalion level, we will bring them back, all the troops will be handed over to you in a unified manner, and they will be incorporated into the combat sequence of the Anti-Japanese Alliance. These are some of the methods that the central authorities have specially adopted for you to solve the urgent needs of the soldiers, taking into account the fact that it is difficult for your soldiers to solve the problem. ”

"The troops that are now being incorporated into the Advance Army are all drawn to you by the central government. But for now, I think it's better to keep the current structure. The next step of the operation, whether it is fought according to your ideas or carried out according to our intentions, it is more appropriate to advance to the army for the time being as a light mobile force. ”

"The troops are fighting in the south, and when the troops in the Guannai are no longer able to respond, all according to your standards, the pressure on logistics is too great. Moreover, fighting in the south is indispensable for mountain warfare and large-scale interspersed with roundabout operations. Under such circumstances, it is necessary to maintain a lightly armed force. ”

"I have been thinking carefully about the establishment of the Anti-Japanese Federation in the past few days. The firepower is indeed quite strong, and it is not bad compared to the Japanese army. However, because they are all heavily armed, they are relatively bulky and not suitable for mountain combat. Considering the various situations that we may face in our next operations, it is better to maintain the current firepower of the advance army. In this way, it can form a light and heavy coordination with the heavily armed anti-United Nations forces, which not only reduces the pressure on logistics, but also ensures that the troops can have a certain degree of flexibility. ”

"As for the completion of this campaign, the weapons and equipment of the advance army after it is officially incorporated into the Anti-Japanese Federation, the two of us have nothing to do. But there is one thing we have to say first: how the troops will be equipped with weapons and equipment at that time is a matter of your own internal affairs. But the cadres above the battalion level, we still have to bring them back. ”

"This time, whether it is the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region or the 129th Division, the old foundation has almost been hollowed out. Some time ago, the failure of the anti-sweeping operations in the two major strategic areas had a great deal to do with the fact that the backbone and essence were all withdrawn, and the newly upgraded local units were incompletely established and their combat effectiveness was not strong. ”

"Originally, according to the requirements of the Central Committee, we only brought back cadres above the regimental level, and all the cadres below the regimental level were handed over to you, along with the troops. But now it seems that we have to bring back the cadres at the battalion level. Without the support of these backbones, it would be difficult for the two major military regions to recover their vitality in a short period of time. You must know that this time I went north, and the essence of the two major military regions was brought out. ”
