20_20434 The decision announced by the chairman made Yang Zhen slightly stunned. The decision of the Central Committee was very sudden, and Yang Zhen was not prepared at all, and he was somewhat caught off guard. Regarding the central government's decision, Yang Zhen was somewhat hesitant. At the same time, Yang Zhen understood that the central government's change in the leadership structure of the New Fourth Army was that the central authorities could no longer bear the contradictions within the New Fourth Army.

Yang Zhen had no opinion on the transfer of some senior cadres of the New Fourth Army to work in the northeast. Although the deputy commander had monopolized power in the New Fourth Army, he went from being a prince who commanded the army on the one hand to being the director of the political department of the Northeast Military Region. It looks like a flat tone, but in fact, in terms of permissions, it can be said to be a downgraded use, or it can even be described as suspended.

As a result of such a cold treatment, I am afraid that this is also the central government's severe dissatisfaction with its work in the New Fourth Army. Yang Zhen noticed the question in the chairman's remarks about the ranking order of the proposed party committee of the Northeast Military Region. According to Yang Zhen's understanding in later generations, the ranking mentioned by the chairman also means the status of a member of the party committee in the future.

Among them, the deputy commander of the New Fourth Army, who has the most seniority, is only in front of the chief of staff of the military region. As the director of the political department of the military region, not only is he far below him, but he has not even served as a member of the Standing Committee, which makes Yang Zhen taste the unusualness. The results of this ranking have already shown that the central authorities are dissatisfied with the work of the New Fourth Army. Otherwise, it wouldn't be such an outcome.

Yang Zhen did not have any opinion on the work arrangements for the central authorities to transfer the leaders of the New Fourth Army to the northeast. What made him hesitate was that he was too young and too young. Not to mention that among the major strategic areas in the country, it can be said that it is the youngest and the least qualified. Even in the Anti-Japanese Federation, there are people with seniority and age older than themselves. Not to mention the commander-in-chief who served as the first secretary of the Northeast Bureau, that is, the commander-in-chief of the First Route Army, and his qualifications are far above himself.

At his own age, it is very suitable to charge into battle and work on the front line, but it is not very suitable to serve as the commander and first secretary of this military region. After hesitating for a moment, Yang Zhen still said: "Chairman, I am too young, and sometimes I am very unstable. Whether he is the commander of the military region or the first secretary of the party committee of the military region, he is very unsuitable. ”

"I don't think this is the case, Comrade Yang Jingyu's ability and qualifications are far above me. It would be more appropriate for him to be the commander of the military region and I to be the deputy commander and commander of the field army. First, we can effectively make use of Comrade Yang Jingyu's long-term experience in working in Northeast China and appease the comrades who were formerly in the Anti-Japanese Federation. Second, I can also concentrate on the study of frontal combat without distracting myself. ”

"As for the first secretary of the party committee of the military region, I think it would be more appropriate for the commander-in-chief or Comrade Wei Zhengmin to concurrently serve as the commander-in-chief. In particular, Comrade Wei Zhengmin, who is a member of the political committee of the Military Region, is a suitable candidate. In the history of our army, the first secretaries of party committees at all levels have always been members of the political committee of the military region. Commanders of military regions rarely serve as first secretaries unless they are also political commissars. After all, our tradition is that the party commands the gun, but in this way it becomes the gun commanding the party. ”

Yang Zhen's answer made the chairman slightly stunned. But then the chairman said in a firm tone: "No, this matter is settled. You served as commander of the Northeast Military Region and first secretary of the party committee, and presided over the work of the Northeast Military Region in an all-round way. Comrade Yang Jingyu served as deputy commander and presided over the construction of the local armed forces in the military region. ”

Comrade Wei Zhengmin was appointed political commissar and second secretary of the military region, and Comrade Li Yanping was appointed deputy political commissar and political commissar of the field army. However, in view of the fact that Comrade Wei Zhengmin is in urgent need of recuperation due to his current physical condition, Comrade Li Yanping was first appointed acting political committee member. Before Comrade Zhou Zikun could not take up his post for the time being, Comrade Guo Bingxun would first assume the post of chief of staff of the Northeast Military Region. ”

"Comrade Yang Zhen, although you are still young, you have a long-term vision. In just two years, we have achieved the results that we wanted to do but failed to do in the past ten years. In addition to military issues, other tasks assigned to you by the central authorities have also been accomplished, to the great satisfaction of the central authorities. ”

"The adjustment of the strategic pattern of Northeast China has been carefully considered by the central government. At the moment of the great enemy, the central authorities cannot only take into account the feelings of individuals and ignore the needs of the military. What we are now facing is a life-and-death war for the liberation of the whole nation, and we cannot arrange seats and divide the fruits in personnel arrangements. The entire Northeast Theater must be undertaken by a person who can fully grasp the overall situation. ”

"The feudal emperors of the past were able to pay attention to the use of talents in an eclectic way when necessary. Are we still not as good as the feudal emperors of the past? As the most critical chess piece in the current national anti-Japanese war, there must be a person who dares to take responsibility and can dare to wear and fight to abbot the overall situation. ”

"The situation in the Northeast has deteriorated to the extreme from the beginning, and you should take the lead in achieving today's achievements. Moreover, your view of the overall situation is difficult to compare with ordinary cadres, and even some veteran cadres with much more seniority than you. Therefore, you will be the commander and the first secretary of the party committee, and Comrade Yang Jingyu will be the deputy commander. Moreover, judging from the changes in the situation in the northeast in the past two years, it is appropriate for the central authorities to choose you as the supreme military commander of this northeast strategic region. ”

Speaking of this, the chairman said categorically: "This matter is settled, don't discuss it." I believe that the central government will not look at the wrong person, and the boss and I will not look at the wrong person. Comrade Yang Zhen, this is a historical mission entrusted to you by the central authorities, and I hope you can hand over an answer sheet that satisfies the central authorities. ”

The chairman's voice fell, and the boss also said: "Comrade Yang Zhen, you have previously listed the differences in the shape and environment inside and outside the Guan, which makes the way of military struggle also different. And your performance in the past two years has also proved that you have this ability. To be honest, I don't dare to fight the battles you fought before, and I can't fight them, and I can't fight them. And in the whole army, there is no one more experienced in this kind of fight than you. ”

"The Central Committee's choice of you as commander of the Northeast Military Region and first secretary of the party committee was carefully considered. You don't have any scruples and let go of the work. The Central Committee will give full support to your work, as long as the Central Committee can show its hands, you will ask the cadres to give the cadres in a word, and give what you want. Although there is not much that the Central Committee can help you, you must remember that the Chairman and I will always stand behind you and support you. ”

Hearing the tough words of the chairman and the boss, Yang Zhen, who knew that there was no room for change, couldn't help scratching his head, hesitated for a moment, and could only smile bitterly: "We soldiers pay attention to understanding and implementation, and if we don't understand, we must also implement." Since the Central Committee has made a decision, I will obey the decision of the Central Committee. I can't say I promise to do my best, but I'm going to give it my all. If you can do it, you can do it and die. ”

"However, Chairman and President, in addition to reporting the results of the previous negotiations with the United States and the Soviet Union in accordance with the requirements of the Central Committee, I have also come to ask for help. At present, although the military production in the northeast has reached a certain scale, the foundation is too thin. In the past, the central government mobilized college students to go to the northeast, but the number was far from meeting the demand. ”

"In terms of military production, we can only stop at copying captured Japanese light weapons and ammunition. The production of artillery was limited to the production of part of mortars, as well as rocket artillery with a simple structure. Independent research and development capabilities are not absent but quite weak. A lot of things can be designed, but they can't be produced. ”

"The military industry is an all-encompassing industry, involving many issues such as metal materials, physics, and chemistry. And in this regard, we have very few people available. Although some Soviet experts were hired at high salaries, this time they managed to hire a number of experts from the United States. But in order to form our own military industry, we should also focus on self-reliance. Outsiders are still foreigners after all. ”

"With the arrival of U.S.-aided equipment, we are now in a situation where there is a shortage of skilled personnel. Although we have selected a group of personnel to study in the Soviet Union since last year. But it takes time to cultivate talents. Military R&D personnel have become the biggest obstacle to the development of our military industry. ”

"The list I gave to the Central Committee before was to help us mobilize a group of university professors through our secret relationships in various universities. Especially those experts in physics, chemistry and materials science. I also know that it is not possible for all of those people to be mobilized. But even a few majors are fine. ”

"Talent is the foundation of the military industry, and without talent, it is like building a house without laying a foundation. Although we have reluctantly recruited a group of graduates from Harbin Institute of Technology in Northeast China, the number is far from meeting our current needs. The lack of qualified personnel has become the biggest constraint on the development of our military industry. ”

"We designed a quadruple anti-aircraft machine gun and a twin anti-aircraft gun ourselves. The drawings were taken out, and the performance of the trial-produced single-tube product was also excellent, but the most critical linkage system could not meet the use standards. It's not that it can't be built, it's that it's too bulky to use. ”

"The anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the college students who helped us mobilize last time and the local mobilization we mobilized in Northeast China was very high, but they lacked experience when they just left school. Without experience, passion alone will not solve problems. Not only is the military industry constrained by qualified personnel, but there is also an extreme shortage of professional and technical personnel in combat units. ”

"Now our troops have moved from a single artillery unit to a mixed infantry artillery unit. The scale of the air force has also reached the scale of more than 1,000 after the arrival of several hundred planes provided by the United States this time and some of the new fighters that will receive the Soviet army in the first autumn of this year and the beginning of spring next year. However, repair and maintenance personnel still need to rely heavily on the Soviet side. ”

"In this battle, we lost nearly 100 tanks, of which the permanent loss was only more than 30 Polish-made light tanks. Most of the rest can be solved through guò repairs. But due to a lack of talent, our maintenance progress has been slow. The tanks damaged at the beginning of the campaign have not yet been repaired. This has had a great impact on the troops' follow-up combat capability. ”

"The maintenance and modification of various combat aircraft of the aviation forces are also mostly dependent on the Soviet side at present, which is quite abnormal. Talents, including all kinds of intermediate-level talents, have now become a great constraint for us to move towards synthesis and formalization. Starting from scratch, the biggest difficulty is here. I implore the central authorities to find a way to mobilize a number of professors and outstanding graduates from various universities in the Guannai to go to the northeast to build our own national defense industry.
