Mr. Peng mentioned one in the telegram sent to his superiors, saying that the people in Gansu are not rich in manpower and material resources, and on the other hand, they have also mobilized a lot when they first arrive in the area, which is actually to draw some lessons from the old base areas before, and the army cannot let the local people bear too much burden, and it is better to stop in moderation.
Li Yong asked his superiors for some supplies for the troops that were about to enter Xinjiang, including goggles and sunglasses for individual soldiers, in addition to goggles that can fight in windy and sandy weather, sunglasses are even more indispensable equipment.
The weather is getting colder and colder, Xinjiang is about to enter the snowfall season, people who have experience in snow marching and combat know that the snowy earth reflects the sunlight very much, and the eyes will quickly get tired and blurred if they are exposed to the snow for a long time.
After suffering from snow blindness, people's eyes will be red and swollen and tearful, once you get this strange disease, the impact on the combat effectiveness of the troops will be too great, and sunglasses can solve this problem very well, so these two small objects do not look big, but they are extremely important equipment for the troops who are about to march and fight in the snow.
General Dwight D. Eisenhower, the supreme commander who commanded the Allied war against Germany during World War II, once said: "The outcome of any battle, campaign, and even war is determined by logistics." ”
It seems that the words are very big, but when you taste them carefully, they make a lot of sense, and some people say that war is about logistics, and logistics -- is a symbol of a country's strength.
Of course, the senior leaders of the field army understand the importance of logistics support for the troops who are about to enter Xinjiang, and General He Longhe and Political Commissar Xi are doing their best to raise supplies for the troops in the rear, and then transport them to the front-line combat units in Jiuquan in a steady stream.
For this reason, not only did the entire Northwest Field Army mobilize, but even other field armies were also providing support to the First Field Army, and the higher authorities transferred 536 vehicles from the North China and East China Military Regions and rented 45 large transport planes from Soviet airlines. Prepare for large quantities of air freight at the same time as being transported by car.
Also by airplane!! This is a jaw-dropping piece of information, something that would have been unimaginable a year ago, but in October of '49, in the latter stages of the Liberation War. This wish is no longer a luxury for the Tubalu people of the Northwest Field Army.
The soldiers who knew the news were nervous, happy and afraid, because the ranks of the Eighth Route Army all relied on their feet to march to fight the world, and if they got people high in the sky at this time, they didn't know what was going on. Some grassroots cadres and fighters went to their superiors and said that they would rather walk than take any planes, and the superiors asked what the reason was, and the soldiers replied with great eloquence: "Of course, the reason is very simple, what if you encounter an enemy in the sky?" We can't throw grenades or bayonets, so we can't fight this battle, so it's better to walk. ”
The chiefs were made to laugh and cry by their own soldiers. However, they also knew that the cultural level of their troops was low, and some soldiers had never even read a book and did not know a few words. The only bit of culture that I learned was learned in the troops, and it is understandable that we are not clear about unfamiliar things; for this reason, the troops that are about to enter Xinjiang have also carried out a large-scale propaganda campaign to popularize science, and explained to the soldiers that the enemy's planes cannot pass through the current sky.
Yiye also mobilized 450 automobiles within the scope of the field army, collected more than 100 automobiles from local areas, and set up a mule and horse transport brigade, on which he also raised more than 33,000 tons of grain. 380 tons of animal fodder, 80 tons of pasture, 35 tons of beef, 1,600 tons of gasoline, as well as a large number of cotton clothes, cotton shoes, socks, kettles, goggles, leather hats 100,000 pieces each, 50,000 pieces of leather clothing. 1,000 tents, replenishment and refueling stations were set up on the way to the army, and 8 large rest stations and 2 large supply stations were set up, in short, all of them were designed to allow the troops to enter Xinjiang smoothly and suffer fewer losses.
A lot of supplies and equipment seem to have been prepared, but for the troops who are about to march long distances, it still seems to be less, such as cars, which are far from meeting the needs of the troops, so most of the soldiers still have to walk on their feet to enter the northwest border of the motherland.
On October 5, 1949, it was early winter weather in Jiuquan, the temperature had just dropped below zero, and the Tianshan Mountains and Kunlun Mountains were already covered by heavy snow, and what was waiting for the troops entering Xinjiang would be endless snow and high mountains, but the hearts of the soldiers were on fire, because the god of war in their hearts, Mr. Peng, was giving a swearing-in speech to the troops:
"Comrades, according to the order of the Central Military Commission, from the 10th of this month, we will march to Xinjiang one after another, this march is of great significance, each of us will be remembered by the party and the people, but this march will also be extremely difficult, we have to brave the wind and snow and the cold, but also to climb high mountains and cross the desert, the arduous journey is no less than the long march of 10,000 miles, although there is no enemy with guns to encircle and intercept us, but the low temperature of dozens of degrees below zero, several meters of snow, Comrades, to complete this great march you need to have will, courage, and the spirit of the Red Army that is not afraid of the difficulties of the expedition. ”
The last sentence Peng Lao always shouted out, shouting loudly with the strength of his whole body, and the soldiers answered their commanders with a deafening roar, the Northwest Battlefield has been fought for nearly three years, Mr. Peng's magical tactical command has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of the soldiers, and the officers and soldiers in the army take it for granted that as long as Mr. Peng says yes, it will definitely be possible, as long as Mr. Peng says that he can win, he will definitely win, I don't see Hu Zongnan's 300,000 U.S. weapons Central Army is not a mess for us to fight, as long as our Mr. Peng is here, You will be able to win the battle.
Prestige is not shouted with slogans, but fought one battle after another, Mr. Peng led more than 20,000 officers and soldiers, and dozens of times his own enemy bloody battles, experienced unimaginable hardships and hardships and achieved the final victory, how many people can do such a record in the world's military history? How many armies can do it? The soldiers' trust in Mr. Peng has been imprinted in the bone marrow.
Li Yong and the soldiers of the ** brigade also stood in the crowd to listen to Mr. Peng's speech, in the environment of tens of thousands of people, people are very susceptible to infection, Li Da brigade commander and the soldiers cheered and shouted slogans together, but Li Yong still has a problem with his psychology and has not understood too much, the most needed equipment for troops to enter Xinjiang is undoubtedly a car, the entire field army is pulling around, I heard that the troops in North China and East China have also supported a lot, our ** brigade in the Northwest Field Army is a division and brigade level unit equipped with the most cars, and it is a wealthy household at the level of landlords and old wealth, When it comes to the number of cars, there are not as many divisions of other units as there are ** brigades, but why don't the higher-level leaders come to the ** brigade to transport cars??? And there is not even a little news of the wind and grass!!
Li Yong and Wang Chengde have discussed this issue together several times, and the decision of the two of them is that as long as the superiors ask for as much as they want, it is also appropriate to adjust the cars of the whole brigade, not only not to ambush, but also to pick the car in the best condition, not only to give the car, but also to the driver, and to focus on the overall situation of the troops entering Xinjiang, but the strange thing is that until now, the superiors have not said that they will transfer a few cars from the **brigade, what does this mean? ?
In the face of Li Yong's doubts, political commissar Wang Chengde joked rarely: "Dayong, I said what is the matter with you guy, this little bit of our brigade's family background is seen by you more tightly than a dog, what's wrong today, is it a good thing that the chief doesn't come to transfer the car, you are still psychologically uncomfortable?" I think you're sick. ”
Putting aside Wang Chengde's jokes, in fact, Lao Wang also has doubts in his heart, it's just that this guy can be more angry than Li Yong.
After the meeting was over, a correspondent from the headquarters found Li Yong and Wang Chengde and asked them to hurry over.
Mr. Peng's room is not big, but there are a lot of people in it, Li Yong and Wang Chengde take a closer look, okay, not only Mr. Peng is here, but the top bosses are almost all here, there is Commander Wang of the Corps, as well as Commander Guo Peng of the Second Army and Political Commissar Wang Enmao, Mr. Peng asked straight to the point: "Little Li Yong, how are you doing?" Isn't it feeling like you're having a problem lately? ”
After more contact with Mr. Peng, Li Yong has long lost his previous sense of rustiness, and there is nothing to be nervous about, so he opened his mouth and replied: "Hey, report to the chief, there is no problem, life is good, there have been almost six or seven days of rest, the soldiers' bodies have completely recovered, the wounded have been sent to the field hospital in the rear, and the ammunition has been replenished. ”
Before Mr. Peng could say anything, Commander Wang on the side snorted twice: "Hmph, I don't believe that your kid didn't notice anything, there is no problem yet, do you know what our field army has been busy with recently?" ”
Li Yong: "Report to the commander, of course I know, I am preparing supplies for the large army." ”
Commander Wang is watching the ** brigade grow day by day, it can be said that without Commander Wang's strong support, there would be no ** brigade today, Li Yong and Wang Chengde are two commanders who are very popular with the commander, but no matter how much credit they make, they still need to be trained when they should be trained, so as to save these two guys from cocking their tails: "It's good to know, tell you the truth, the original superiors were going to transfer 100 cars from your brigade, or even the driver brought gasoline together, and finally thanks to the boss's intercession, I didn't make you bleed, how do you feel? Are you going to laugh secretly? ”……)
