Liuzhen, the Independent Regiment, no, the Independent Brigade Headquarters, all the big guys gathered together, and everyone's face was filled with a smile that couldn't be concealed;
We won a great victory, how can we not be happy?
Of course, the most important thing is that everyone seems to be getting promoted. In addition to the original members of the independent group, some new blood has been added;
In order to facilitate unified command, a certain regiment whose jurisdiction overlapped closely with the independent regiment was also integrated into the independent brigade's organizational structure. In other words, Li Chenxi's third company was also led by Chu Xiong.
At first, Chu Xiong wanted to bring Qin Feng and the third company over, but failed. Now Qin Feng has become the commander of the second battalion of a certain regiment, and his entire second battalion has been sent to Chu Xiong's bowl by the headquarters. Naturally, Li Chenxi and Hu Jingwen cannot escape inside.
The first party committee since the establishment of the Independent Brigade was naturally chaired by political commissar Gao Wancheng. He was also promoted to the political commissar of the independent brigade, but he was not awarded the title by the Sichuan Military Command. The government generally did not openly recognize the position of political commissar of the Eighth Route Army.
"Comrades, today is a good day for the establishment of our 81st Division Independent Brigade. I propose to celebrate with a round of applause!"
As soon as Gao Wancheng finished speaking, there was thunderous applause in the conference room. Although everyone did not care about personal honor or disgrace when fighting against the Japanese, being promoted to command more troops is also a very exciting thing for all commanders. No one will find it objectionable. Their positions are high, and revolutionaries are no exception.
After the applause, Gao Wancheng continued to chair the meeting.
"Comrades, let me first introduce to you Comrade Chen Hao, the leader of a certain regiment, and Comrade Li Wannian, the political commissar. They will serve as the leader and political commissar of the 881 regiment;
Li Qing was appointed as the leader of the 882nd Regiment, and Comrade Huang An, who came from the headquarters, was appointed as the political commissar.
Because the National Military Command was too stingy, it only gave us the establishment of two regiments. Currently, the relationship between the two parties is at its most tense. In order not to overly stimulate them, we still follow their establishment on the surface and only have two regiments under our command. The 881st and 882nd regiments will be reported to the Military Command Department for record, and it is said that they will also receive military pay.
The specific preparation will be announced later by Comrade Zhong Guoliang, Chief of Staff.
The Party Committee of the Independent Brigade consists of six people (Comrade Yang Wei is assigned to work abroad)
The secretary is served by political commissar Comrade Gao Wancheng;
The deputy secretary is served by brigade commander Chu Xiong;
Standing committee members include:
Deputy Brigadier: Liu Xingguo (in charge of the Joint Logistics Office when Yang Wei is not in the country)
Chief of Staff of the Headquarters: Zhong Guoliang
Director of the Political Department: Wang Junjie
Director of Joint Logistics: Yang Wei"
(Chu Xiong believes that although Yang Wei is not in the country, his seat should still be kept, otherwise it will be difficult to determine his rank when he comes back. Other party committee members agree)
"The independent brigade still has a division of labor and responsibility system under the unified leadership of the party committee. The specific work of the party committee members will be reported to the headquarters for review and then issued to each unit in the form of a formal document. Now the chief of staff, Comrade Zhong Guoliang, will read out the independent brigade establishment adjustment plan !”
As soon as Gao Wancheng finished speaking, there was another burst of applause in the venue, which was regarded as celebrating the establishment of the new party committee of the Independence Brigade, which is the backbone of the entire Independence Brigade.
After the applause stopped, Chief of Staff Zhong Guoliang walked to the front desk and started the drama:
"Comrades, after collective discussion by the party committee, it was decided to establish four reserve regiments and a garrison regiment in addition to the 881st and 882nd regiments. The unified caliber is the second-line troops.
Preliminary group leader: Zhang Yu
Leader of the Second Preliminary Group: Lin Xiaofeng
Leader of the third group: Yan Haoyu
Leader of the Preliminary Fourth Regiment: Chu Dapeng
Leader of the garrison: He Zhenhua
The candidates for the political commissars of each regiment will be drafted by Yanzhou and then dispatched.
Commander of the artillery battalion directly under the brigade: Liu Zhe
Cavalry Battalion Commander: Ma Shuai
Guard Battalion Commander: Zhou Qing
The Tigers Special Warfare Brigade (deputy regiment level), Security Department (deputy regiment level), Communications Section (deputy regiment level), and Teaching Brigade were upgraded by one level, and personnel and establishment were increased accordingly.
A field hospital directly under the brigade was established at the deputy regimental level, headed by Tan Tao, the former commander of the sixth battalion;
The Anping City Garrison Brigade was established at the deputy regiment level, headed by Wang Tie, the former commander of the fifth battalion. "
As soon as the chief of staff stopped talking, applause rang out like thunder again. It was indeed a promotion. Everyone was promoted one or two levels, and everyone was happy.
Although the reserve regiment claims to be a second-line force to the outside world, internally it only needs to be recognized as a full regiment level. Who cares what outsiders think.
After everyone had a good time, Zhong Guoliang continued:
"Comrades, the six infantry regiments adopt a unified organization, with 3 infantry battalions and 1 artillery battalion (equipped with 24 Wei Yixiao artillery pieces and 4 Wei Shen artillery pieces);
Each infantry battalion has three infantry companies and artillery companies, equipped with 12 Wei Yixiao cannons;
Mulan rocket launchers are distributed to companies as the company's supporting firepower, with 6 units per company;
Each platoon was adjusted from the original 6 squads to 4 squads, 3 infantry squads and 1 fire squad equipped with 4 grenades, with a total of 60 people in the platoon;
There are about 2,500 people in the group
The artillery battalion directly under the brigade is equipped with 8 6-barreled 107mm Wei Shen cannons and 24 Wei Yixiao cannons, with a total number of 520 people;
The cavalry battalion has three cavalry companies of 160 men, with a total number of 488 men;
The guard battalion has 2 infantry companies and 1 artillery company, with a total number of more than 600 people;
The Tigers Special Warfare Group has three squadrons, each with 48 people, except for the 50 people sent by the division commander for training.
The members of the teaching team are not fixed, with about 200 instructors (and more than 500 full-time students);
Field hospital with more than 800 people (including a security company);
The Anping Garrison Brigade has about 2,000 people and is responsible for the garrison of Anping City.
The garrison regiment is responsible for the garrison work team in the Liuzhen base area and no longer arranges the main troops to stay behind, with a total number of 2,000 people.
There are about 500 people in the brigade organization, and the military factory is not included in the establishment.
The main force of the brigade is about 18,000 people, and the garrison force is about 4,000 people. "
After Zhong Guoliang finished speaking, the whole conference room was excited. There were more than 18,000 people in the main force of Brigade Guang, which was an absolute big deal!
"Now let the brigade commander speak!"
Zhong Guoliang handed over the final highlight to Chu Xiong, and the applause sounded like thunder again.
Chu Xiong raised his hand, and the applause immediately stopped. You could hear a pin drop in silence. After winning battles one by one, Chu Xiong has established absolute prestige in the entire independent brigade, even for the newly joined Chen Hao and others;
A person’s name is like a tree’s shadow!
"Comrades, don't get too excited. Let's pour some cold water on everyone. We have a lot of men and guns, but if we really count them, they are equivalent to a Japanese B division.
There are no fewer than fifty divisions like the Japanese in China, so people are most afraid of comparison. Without comparison, there will be no harm!
The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard. In addition, I would like to remind everyone that we still have two main force groups externally. Including the troops directly under the brigade headquarters, the main force is about 8,000 people. The rest are second-line troops, which is what the Japanese call them. Tuba Road! "
As soon as Chu Xiong finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter in the audience. He still wanted to make a fortune in silence, it was all without saying anything!
"The original main force of the independent regiment plus garrison troops was about 13,000 people. In the battle of Zezhou, the entire regiment was sacrificed and seriously injured, with more than 1,600 troops lost. More than 2,200 troops were transferred to a certain regiment. In the battle to break the blockade, more than 5,000 puppet soldiers were captured. These people After shaving off some of the crooked melons and cracked dates, approximately 4,000 soldiers can be obtained;
In summary, the shortage of soldiers is about 4,000, and it is planned to recruit them from all base areas and supplement them to various units after passing the training.
Anping City will no longer be given away. The Anping Anti-Japanese Base Area will be established with Anping City as the center. The next step will cover the entire Zezhou area. Just leave a Zezhou City for the Japanese! "
Applause rang out again. This party committee meeting lasted for a full day, covering all aspects of base area construction. It sounds complicated, but it is actually simple. It is nothing more than extending the Liuzhen model to the entire Anping area, and then expanding it to the entire Zezhou area in the future. Establish a base area with a population of millions.
"Comrades, this is just the beginning! Dismissal!"
The applause sounded like thunder, this is the battle call of the independent brigade!
