As soon as Yu Chenglong returned to Tianyaoling, he was summoned by the commander-in-chief to discuss matters. At the meeting, the commander-in-chief first expressed his thoughts and made his arrangements for some current matters.
Of course, the commander-in-chief also sincerely sought the opinions of the three military commanders and asked them to express their thoughts. Therefore, the navy commander spoke first to express his support for the commander-in-chief's arrangement.
While supporting the commander-in-chief's arrangement, the navy captain also put forward his own suggestions, which was to build fortifications as soon as possible, and at the same time organize a large-scale military training for the brothers to improve the team's combat effectiveness.
Of course, Commander Xiao also supported the commander-in-chief's idea. Like the navy commander, she also put forward her own additional ideas. It should be said that the ideas of these two people were also very practical, and the commander-in-chief nodded to express that he felt the same way.
The two deputies made good supplements, and the commander-in-chief turned his attention to Yu Chenglong. He felt that Yu Chenglong should have his own ideas, so he motioned to Yu Chenglong to express them too.
"I also completely agree with the commander-in-chief's arrangement and the ideas of the two military commanders. In addition to these, I would also like to make a few suggestions and ask the commander-in-chief and the military commanders to make up their minds.
First, we are now the Manchurian Liberation Army, and the set of rules of the beards in the past no longer work. We must have our own set of rules so that we can lead troops to fight easily.
For example, you are not allowed to disobey orders, you are not allowed to harm women, you are not allowed to harm crops, you are not allowed to hide loot, you are not allowed to form gangs, you are not allowed to retreat, you are not allowed to drink and cause trouble, etc. There must be rules.
Second, we have to recruit some eyes and ears outside the mountains and set up more spies. Otherwise, if we hide in the mountains, we will become deaf and blind, and we can only passively be beaten.
The reason why Dulong Mountain remains undefeated is because they have more dens than living on the mountain. We should be well-informed and come and go as we please.
Third, we have to find ways to get more money and go to the city to open businesses and make money. With money, our supplies, our guns, brothers' salaries, etc. will all be secured.
The fourth is to recruit talents. We must find ways to recruit talented people in all fields. We also need to recruit troops extensively. The number of people like us is getting smaller and smaller as we fight. It will be difficult to deal with the Japanese devils for a long time.
Fifth, we have to set up some departments like the government to deal with certain things. Otherwise, we have to deal with everything and it will be a bit confusing. I think these are the things we should deal with right now. "
Under the direction of the commander-in-chief's gaze, Yu Chenglong also put forward his own additional opinions. This has also been affirmed by the commander-in-chief and others. The Manchuria Liberation Army has just been established, and there is indeed a lot to do.
"Very good, everyone's ideas are very good! We can't finalize everything today. If there are some things that can be done, let's do it first. Especially, we can't delay things that we need to do urgently.
I won’t talk about recording the merits of the brothers and paying homage to the fallen brothers. Battalion Commander Jiang is responsible for making arrangements. All our leaders will attend. Other matters will be decided as follows:
The first is that the navy commander immediately led the troops to guard against Yingzui, Commander Yu led the troops to guard against Mopanshan, and Commander Xiao expanded the garrison in Tianjiao Ridge. According to the advice of the navy commander, he stepped up the construction of fortifications and stepped up the training of strong troops.
The second is that Commander Xiao sent people to investigate the mountains and rivers within a few hundred miles around Tianjiao Ridge, and opened up several evacuation routes so that he could lead the brothers to evacuate safely in an emergency.
The third is that Commander Yu led Battalion Commander Jiang to formulate the charter of the Liberation Army and formulate the organizational structure of each department of the Liberation Army. They should try to make it as perfect as possible and then leave it to everyone for discussion and decision.
The fourth is that each army must select a small number of brothers to go out to the mountains in three directions: east, south, and west to build contact points, intelligence points, and set up spies to collect intelligence and prepare internal responses.
But this matter must be done carefully, and the people must be picked out, and those who have grudges against the Japanese and those who can find out the information must be selected for development. It must also be hidden, and everyone must have a single line of contact. Otherwise, if one of them is caught by the Japanese devils, he will lose everything. Blockbusters.
Fifth, the navy captain sent people to contact those small groups of anti-Japanese armed forces and win them to come to Tianyaoling to join the group. Let’s stop discussing today’s matters here. Let’s go work separately. "
The commander-in-chief finally made a decision, and everyone dispersed to implement it. Especially the Navy Captain's Left Army and Yu Chenglong's Right Army, they have to move to new hills to garrison, so they will seem busier.
Yu Chenglong selected eight brothers, working in pairs, to go out into the mountains to establish contact points and inquire about information. Deputy Commander Zhang was ordered to go to Mopan Mountain to inspect and prepare for the establishment of a new camp, while he himself went to see Battalion Commander Jiang Dazhu to discuss the preparation of new military regulations and other matters.
During this period, the main task of the team was to prepare for war. The purpose was to prevent the little devils from coming to retaliate. Therefore, the brothers worked together to build fortifications when it was time to build fortifications and train troops when it was time to train.
In particular, the Navy Captain's Left Army and Yu Chenglong's Right Army needed to establish new camps at Yingzui Cliff and Mopan Mountain, so the task of building and improving fortifications was even heavier.
Compared with Yingzui Cliff, Mopan Mountain, where Yu Chenglong and his right army are located, is not as big as Yingzui Cliff. Of course, the mountain is not that steep, but the geographical location is also more important for Tianyaoling.
According to the topography of Mopan Mountain, Yu Chenglong and Zhang Daoxian led their brothers to build many well-hidden bunkers along the mountainside as the main defense works.
The mountain of Yingzui Cliff is relatively steep, so the Navy Commander dug defense fortifications around the top of the mountain. Therefore, the amount of work was relatively large. Commander Xiao sent people to help, which accelerated the construction progress.
The navy captain also prepared a lot of rolling logs and rocks in the fortifications he was building. He said that these things were more useful than bullets at critical moments, and they could destroy a large area once thrown.
Although this defense method is relatively old, it is still very effective. It can save ammunition and effectively kill the enemy. Therefore, the commander-in-chief advocated that each camp should prepare some in case of urgent need.
In addition to concentrating on building fortifications, of course other things cannot be delayed. Yu Chenglong also has to study and formulate new military regulations with Battalion Commander Jiang Dazhu. The same is true for other leaders, working day and night.
During this period, the whole army was very busy, especially the leaders, who worked harder than their brothers. In addition to participating in the construction of fortifications like their brothers, they were also busy with other things, and they all lost weight.
More than a month later, the new camp of Navy Commander and Commander Yu's team has been established. During this period, the Commander-in-Chief personally visited several times to provide guidance on the construction of the new camp and expressed satisfaction with the construction of the new camp.
On the morning when the two teams of Navy Commander and Commander Yu were going to the new camp for garrison, the Commander-in-Chief summoned the officers above the battalion commander to discuss matters in the open space in front of the Commander-in-Chief's Hall, and also saw off the two defense teams.
