Established the Zhongtiao Mountain Anti-Japanese Revolutionary Base Area.
Follow the original process.
Until January 1942, the 129th Division, according to the instructions of the headquarters, was composed of the Taiyue Column and the 17th, 18th and 57th Regiments of the 386th Brigade of the Taiyue Military Region... Southward detachment.
A total of more than 2,600 people from the Henan-Shanxi District Party Committee went south to carry out the task of opening up the Zhongtiao Mountain Anti-Japanese Base Area.
But now, due to Kong Jie's first prediction of the situation in the Zhongtiao Mountain area.
Even before the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain broke out, Kong Jie sent a mountain company to the Zhongtiao Mountain area.
So far, due to the existence of three mountain companies, Zhongtiao Mountain has established a considerable front-line foundation for the establishment of an anti-Japanese revolutionary base.
After successfully arriving in the Zhongtiao Mountain area, Han Feng and the other three mountain companies did more than just fight guerrillas.
At the same time, based on the rich experience of the Eighth Route Army in opening up base areas in the past, it contacted and mobilized the masses everywhere, attacked bandits and die-hard armed forces, and assisted local governments in establishing anti-Japanese regimes and armed forces.
And achieved considerable results.
Because of this, Kong Jie believed that it was extremely necessary to break the original process and send teams as soon as possible to the Zhongtiao Mountain area to open up anti-Japanese revolutionary base areas.
Just when Commander Kong was thinking about these things, he was checking for omissions and making up for them.
the other side.
Kong Jie discussed the demographic dividend base development plan with Dong San, the director of the Logistics Department of the Independent Regiment, and Xu Qingnian, the director of the Finance Department.
Dong San and Xu Qingnian followed Kong Jie's plan and began to gradually accept refugees to settle in the independent regiment's base areas, and arranged these refugees one by one.
Either work in a factory, farm, or join the migrant workers' league, and work step by step towards the blueprint of demographic dividend.
In less than a month, the independent group actually expanded into five migrant workers' groups, with a total of more than 4,000 migrant workers' groups.
According to the plan discussed by Kong Jie, Li Wenjie and other cadres, the migrant workers' corps organizations were divided into three types of migrant workers' corps according to different tasks.
The first category is the front-line standing migrant workers' regiment accompanying the army.
To put it simply, this type of migrant workers' regiment is attached to an independent regiment for direct use and command.
In addition to not being assigned weapons to the front lines to fight against the Japs, whether during combat or non-combat periods, the front-line civilian workers who accompany the army can always take care of various transportation tasks within the regiment where labor is needed.
The second category is the second-line migrant workers who are responsible for transportation between the rear troops in the base area and the troops.
The third category is temporary migrant workers, who need to be quickly established when needed and are responsible for the local government to assist in the transportation of combat troops.
Most of these migrant workers are composed of local villagers who provide temporary labor force. After completing their tasks, they will return to their villages to continue farming and working.
Kong Jie’s independent group currently has five migrant workers’ groups.
Among them, the first, second, and third regiments are standing migrant workers who accompany the army on the front line, and most of their members are composed of refugees who have fled.
Since these members have no family burdens in the base area and can work with the army for a long time, the Logistics Department even specially arranged accommodation for them in the base area of the independent regiment, and provided them with clothing, food, housing, and wages.
The Fourth Regiment and the Fifth Regiment are second-line transfers of migrant workers.
As for temporary migrant workers, there are naturally some, but they are not included in the statistics at the moment.
If we add local temporary migrant workers who can be organized quickly, the Independent Group can even pull out nearly eight migrant workers groups at once.
In other words, if Kong Jie needs it, he can quickly draw a team of nearly 6,000 migrant workers around the Independence Regiment.
There are more than 5,000 soldiers in the independent regiment, and each soldier can even be assigned a militiaman to be responsible for transportation.
To be honest, it is indeed a bit luxurious.
But who gave Commander Kong the capital?
After the migrant workers' group was quickly formed, it followed the plan discussed by Kong Jie and Li Wenjie.
Let members take the lead in investing in various economic constructions in the independent regiment base area.
When speaking to members of the migrant workers’ league, Kong Jie said this:
"Comrades, what is the nature of our migrant workers' group? What is it here for? I think the cadres in the group should have told you."
"In a word, apart from not fighting a war, you can basically be said to be a militarized organization."
"To put it more seriously, everyone comes here to make a contribution to our anti-Japanese cause. They also do not want to be slaves to the subjugation of the country and want to drive the invaders out of China!"
"But I, Kong Jie, like to tell the truth, except for the big principle of serving the country and the people."
"I think everyone comes here to work, to earn wages, to support their families, and to live a prosperous life."
"Here, on behalf of the entire independent group, I, Kong Jie, can assure you that as long as you come here in good health, I will definitely find jobs for all of you so that you can work and make money."
"But I have to tell you one thing. If you join the militia, you will belong to a military-managed organization. You must obey the command and the arrangements and orders of your superiors."
…
Captain Kong gave a heartfelt speech.
The local people were grateful to Kong Jie for finding work for them and making them money.
Not to mention the refugees who escaped, Captain Kong not only provided food for everyone, but also gave them a place to live, and paid wages. He was simply a living Buddha in everyone's hearts.
Therefore, no member is willing to obey Kong Jie's arrangements.
Kong Jie also kept his word and quickly provided corresponding positions for members of these five migrant workers' groups.
Those who work in agriculture do farming, those who raise livestock keep in good health, those who work in factories work in factories, those who engage in transportation engage in transportation...
The cadres of the independent regiment were extremely efficient. It took less than two days to put all five militia regiments and more than 4,000 migrant workers on duty.
The people now have jobs to do and are paid for their wages. They feel the security of life and the realization of their self-worth, not to mention how happy they are in their hearts.
Li Wenjie rushed to the regiment headquarters and reported to Kong Jiehui:
"Captain, I now understand what you mean by demographic dividend."
"The injection of more than 4,000 laborers has replaced all the soldiers we previously used in these positions at once."
"Moreover, the members of the migrant workers' corps who came here with the purpose of working are very capable of learning. They can become proficient in some simple positions in a few days."
"We soldiers can finally free up our hands and focus on military operations and training."
But having said that, Li Wenjie said sadly from another angle:
"But... Commander, we are still preparing to streamline our troops and streamline our administration. As a result, our regiment's strength has even exceeded 10,000."
"If the superiors misunderstand this..."
Kong Jile said: "There is nothing for the superiors to misunderstand. We are a team of elite soldiers and streamlined administration. This migrant workers' group is neither a soldier nor involved in politics, so it is not among them."
"Wenjie, just report the matter of the militia corps to the headquarters truthfully. In addition, send the documents we have prepared for the preparation, system, and methods of forming the militia corps to the headquarters."
"Hey!" Li Wenjie responded.
But the subsequent development surrounding the migrant workers' corps was far beyond Commander Kong's expectations.
But they said that the leader of the First Independent Regiment of Migrant Workers was none other than Xie Baoqing.
Since joining the migrant workers' corps, Xie Baoqing has performed quite well with his construction team.
In addition, Xie Baoqing managed the Heiyun Village in Nuo Da, and the bandits had their own ideas, and they managed it in an orderly manner.
In terms of organization and management, Xie Baoqing is very good at it.
This migrant workers' regiment is also a front-line standing migrant worker accompanying the army. It is directly commanded, appointed and established by the independent regiment.
When Kong Jie thought about it later, he decided to give Xie Baoqing a try and first let him be the first battalion commander of the migrant workers' regiment.
Kong Jie serves as the group leader for the time being.
As a result, Xie Baoqing did a good job. Every time Kong Jie assigned a task to a group, it was quickly completed under Xie Baoqing's efficient organization.
After the first migrant workers' regiment was formally established, Kong Jie appointed Xie Baoqing as the leader of the first regiment.
Of course, Kong Jie also arranged suitable cadres within the regiment for the political commissar and director of the political office of the first regiment.
Not afraid, but just in case, you have to be careful not to let Xie Baoqing lead the militia astray.
Xie Baoqing is mainly responsible for organization and management work.
to July.
Xie Baoqing arranged for the Second Battalion of the First Migrant Workers' Regiment to transport a batch of supplies from the Independent Regiment to Commander Feng's Fifth Regiment.
As a result, on the way, these supplies were robbed by a group of bandits entrenched in the mountainous area.
When the news reached the Independent Regiment, Kong Jie was furious.
This group of bandits without eyes dared to offend Commander Kong. They really didn’t know how many eyes Lord Ma had.
Kong Jie immediately prepared to give an order to directly encircle and suppress these bandits without leaving any one behind.
After hearing about this, Xie Baoqing quickly ran to the Independent Regiment and expressed to Kong Jie:
"Captain, let me try it!
I will take my two brothers there to ensure that we get our batch of supplies back. If everything goes well, we can even recruit the bandits from that mountainous area to your independent group. "
Kong Jie thought about it, Xie Baoqing had been a bandit for many years, and he knew the way of a bandit. He simply nodded.
It would be much better if we could fight without losing any blood, rather than wasting manpower and material resources on clearing out the bandits.
As expected, Xie Baoqing took several members of the migrant workers' corps and found the group of bandits in the mountainous area based on his familiarity with the bandits.
The specific way!
Xie Baoqing first pretended to be a bandit and used all kinds of easy-to-use slang. He insisted on telling the bandits who came to meet him that they were stunned for a while.
"It's incredible, sir, the chief gunner of Heiyun Village, Mr. Xie, is here!"
"Xie Baoqing? I heard that his Black Cloud Village was surrounded and suppressed by the Eighth Route Army, and even the village was set on fire?"
The bandit leader Yao Hu was puzzled.
However, it is not unusual for a bandit leader like Xie Baoqing to escape from the hands of the Eighth Route Army.
Yao Hu didn't suspect anything.
"Are you sure it's really Xie Baoqing?"
The follower said: "You can't be wrong, the slander is so slanderous, the little business in our village can be exposed with just one sentence."
Yao Hu didn't know Xie Baoqing's intention as he went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.
But the original power of Heiyun Village was much greater than that of his mountaintop.
Even out of respect for the seniors in the bandit world, Yao Hu still chose to meet Xie Baoqing.
When the two parties met, they first exchanged greetings.
Xie Baoqing deliberately guided the topic, and the two of them lamented and lamented about the difficulties of being bandits in the current troubled times.
then:
Xie Baoqing changed the topic and said in a solemn tone:
"Brother, I'm here specifically to rescue you this time. Do you know whose transport team you robbed last time?"
"Isn't it just a group of ordinary people?"
"Common people? Let me tell you, that is the transportation team of Commander Kong of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. Brother, how many heads do you have who dare to offend Commander Kong?"
"Just this morning, I learned that you robbed the transport team. Commander Kong was so angry that he was about to send troops to directly surround you, brother!"
"With Commander Kong's temper, not even a single rat in the ravine will be left alive in the entire mountain, let alone your brothers!"
Yao Hu had heard of Kong Jie's reputation as a ruthless man who would make any kid tremble when they met him. He was very frightened.
If they want to live long as bandits, they will find out in advance who can be provoked, who cannot be provoked, and who should never be provoked.
Kong Jie and the Independent Group are on the list of people who must not be messed with.
"Brother, you are in big trouble."
"But Nian Zaitong is a hero. I specifically asked Commander Kong to come and see you this time."
…
"What's wrong with surrendering to the Eighth Route Army? Commander Kong is in charge of food and drink, and also pays wages.
We work on the Eighth Route Army, which can be regarded as a career for the Anti-Japanese War. We can make money, have enough food and shelter, and don't have to go to the front line to take risks. Isn't this much more comfortable than being a bandit? "
"Brother, you are also the chief gunner, you should have such awareness."
"Which of us big bosses in the village dares to sleep soundly one night?"
"Fighting day and night, living in fear all the time, what are you planning on?"
"Rather than take your brothers to starve in the mountains and take the risk of being surrounded and suppressed by the Eighth Route Army at any time.
Why not follow me and work for Commander Kong in the Independent Regiment? Not only can you gain fame, but you can also make money. Why not? "
"Don't worry, what kind of person is Captain Kong? He can tolerate you!"
Xie Baoqing, who was also a bandit, understood Yao Hu's thoughts very well.
After saying these words, Yao Hu suddenly surrendered to the independent group with the family wealth accumulated in the bandit village for many years as a certificate of surrender.
However, this matter is far from over yet.
Then Xie Baoqing passed the Yao Hu line and persuaded many bandits from the surrounding mountainous areas to surrender.
Who is Xie Baoqing?
The head of Heiyun Village, the largest bandit force in the entire northwestern Shanxi area at that time.
Since surrendering to Kong Jie, Xie Baoqing has taught the Eighth Route Army how to fight bandits.
What kind of routes do bandits usually choose to carry out robberies, where in the village they generally place spies, and some channels for selling stolen goods...
From then on, what secrets did the bandits have for the Eighth Route Army?
Otherwise, traitors are the most hateful!
With Xie Baoqing, an old bandit, around, the regiments in the Taihang base area even came to him for advice on the anti-bandit missions they carried out.
From then on, the life of the bandits in the entire Taihang and Taiyue areas was miserable.
He hid around like a mouse and never dared to offend the Eighth Route Army.
No one dared to touch any village where the Eighth Route Army was stationed.
In recent years, I have been living in the mountains, and I can no longer hold on.
Just like that, Xie Baoqing spread the news through Yao Hu and extended an olive branch to Kong Jie, and a group of bandits came to surrender one after another.
And what is Xie Baoqing’s current identity?
Head of the First Civilian Workers' Regiment of the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment.
It didn’t take long for the news to spread:
In less than a week, the Eighth Route Army Civilian Workers Group wiped out dozens of bandit forces in Taihang, Taiyue and surrounding mountainous areas.
As soon as the news came out, all the little devils in the county were shocked.
The Japanese also hated those bandits who would harass the Japanese army even when they had nothing to do. However, because of the existence of the mountains, the little Japanese were helpless against the bandits.
As a result, the Eighth Route Army and Civilian Workers Group eradicated dozens of bandit forces in such a short period of time.
What kind of combat effectiveness is this?
As the Japanese intelligence department conducted in-depth investigations, the Japanese were even more horrified.
According to the investigation of the Japanese military intelligence department, a number of military organizations called migrant workers' regiments appeared around the Eighth Route Army base areas.
The Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army alone has more than five migrant workers' regiments under its jurisdiction.
The little devil couldn't sit still for this.
Some Japanese officers even believed that the Eighth Route Army was frantically expanding the size of its troops and preparing to massively expand its base areas.
The emergence of the migrant workers' regiment made the Japanese army even more fearful of the Eighth Route Army troops.
As the situation developed, and with the formation of the migrant workers' group, news even came from the headquarters not long after:
The existence of the Eighth Route Army militia and labor corps was recognized, and each militia labor corps even gave them their designations.
Now, Kong Jie originally planned to form a civilian organization with similar military management, but it was actually a civilian organization.
It was actually rumored to be a militarized armed force!
Even if you jump into the Yellow River, you won’t be able to wash yourself away.
