Deputy Commander-in-Chief Huang of the Second War Zone was recalled by Yan Xishan before he arrived in Taiyuan. Yan Xishan flew into a rage in the Qiulin cave dwelling and overturned the table.
The tenth war zone, the tenth war zone, the damn tenth war zone, took away one-fifth of my territory, and also occupied my Taiyuan.
You damn thing want me to assign the 26th Mixed Brigade to him as the 10th combat zone, but I’ll give him the crap.
A bandit really became a fucking spirit and became the commander-in-chief of the 10th War Zone, making him an equal to me.
Is he worthy? Um?
Yan Xishan did not dare to go to Chongqing to slap the table with Jiang in person. He was afraid that he would not be able to come back after going to Chongqing. However, this did not prevent him from slapping the table and scolding his mother, and he was not afraid that the news would reach Jiang's ears.
They all came out of bloody water, and his relationship with Jiang had always been superficially inseparable, so he understood that Jiang was warning him.
However, Jiang was underestimating him just because of Xie Baoqing.
At least Yan Xishan thinks so.
In Yan Xishan's eyes, Xie Baoqing is just a newly emerged small warlord who got lucky. Over the past few decades, Yan Xishan has seen many small warlords like Xie Baoqing, but they only enjoyed temporary glory.
Okay, since you are trying to trick me, let's wait and see. I want to see how long this little warlord Xie Baoqing can hold on. When this kid can't hold it anymore, I'll see if you want to beg me.
The attitude of the Eighth Route Army was completely opposite to that of Yan Xishan. General Zhu expressed warm welcome to the establishment of the 10th Theater Command of the National Revolutionary Army and the 41st Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army. He ordered the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division to obey the deployment of the Central Military Commission and separate from the 18th Group Army with immediate effect. He joined the 41st Group Army. However, before the transfer, the Eighth Route Army Headquarters made some adjustments to the personnel appointments and dismissals of the 386 Brigade. Former Brigadier Chen and other leaders were transferred to the 129th Division Headquarters and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters. Xu Shiyou was appointed as the Commander of the 386 Brigade and the Commander of the Independent Regiment. Li Yunlong is the deputy brigade commander, Ding Wei, the leader of the new first regiment, is the political commissar, and Kong Jie, the leader of the new second regiment, is the chief of staff.
In view of the fact that the Central Military Commission has reorganized the army's combat order and abolished brigade-level combat units, Xie Baoqing, commander-in-chief of the 10th Theater Region and commander of the 41st Group Army, reorganized the 386 Brigade. With the approval of the Central Military Commission, the original 386 Brigade was reorganized into The 51st Army was reorganized, and Xu Shiyou was appointed deputy commander of the 41st Group Army and commander of the reorganized 51st Army.
Xie Tian did not break up the 386 Brigade and reorganize it at all. The 386 Brigade is still the 386 Brigade, but it has been upgraded to the 51st Army. The commander is still Xu Shiyou, the people are still your people, and the team is still your team. As for the future, the east wind will prevail. West wind, west wind still prevails over east wind, let’s not be in a hurry and take our time.
The PLA troops have also been reorganized.
The original 1st, 4th, and 5th regiments, the first column, the armored infantry regiment, and the 26th mixed brigade of the Shanxi-Sui Army that had not yet been reorganized were merged into the new 49th Army. Qin Fen served as the commander of the new 49th Army.
Regarding the 26th Mixed Brigade of the Shanxi-Sui Army, Xie Tian actually did not expect them to return to the establishment. Anyway, I have given the establishment to you. You can come or not. One brigade only has the establishment of a regiment. Can you come? That's all.
The original 2, 3, and 6 regiments, second column, third column, and artillery regiment were merged into the new 50th Army, and Chu Yunfei served as the commander of the new 50th Army.
Now that Xie Tian has occupied such a large territory, his soldiers and supplies have been greatly supplemented.
However, Xie Tian did not blindly expand his troops. Now his strength has begun to attract people's fear. If he further expands his troops, he may cause unnecessary trouble.
So Xie Tian made a clever move.
Reserve departments are established in each county and city under the rule, which are managed by the Tenth War Zone Commander's Office and the local government. Reserve regiments, battalions and companies are assigned to the reserve department. Their nature is above that of the militia and below the formal army. With active-duty officers as the backbone, each department Based on the young people recruited from the strata, military training is organized regularly, which can be regarded as half a soldier.
Moreover, reservists can also enjoy various welfare subsidies provided by the government. There is no way, who makes Xie Tian rich? The money from selling one Kita Seiichi is enough for him to work hard.
Once the reserve policy was launched, young people of suitable age immediately signed up enthusiastically.
Xie Baoqing's regular army will no longer recruit troops for the time being, so wouldn't there be a chance to join the People's Liberation Army if they join the reserve force?
The name of the Eighth Route Army is the same as that of the Eighth Route Army. Although the Eighth Route Army has long been renamed the Eighteenth Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army, ordinary people still like to call this army the Eighth Route Army.
The name People's Liberation Army has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in Shanxi. No matter what name the People's Liberation Army is changed to, ordinary people still call Xie Baoqing's team the People's Liberation Army.
The reserve force in the Tenth Theater expanded rapidly like a balloon, reaching more than 70,000 people in a short period of time. As long as Xie Tian gave an order, these 70,000 people could be formed into two armies immediately.
Even Chongqing began to implement the reserve system after hearing the news, and the era of catching young men was gone forever.
With the strategic retreat of the Japanese army from Shanxi, Xie Tian also got valuable time to recuperate.
More than a month passed in a flash, and the earth was already glowing with vitality. Even Peach Blossom Island, which had been bombed to the ground, was in full bloom, sweeping away the gloom of the Japanese occupation.
However, Jinyang Academy no longer exists.
The grass on the original plain grows brighter and wither every year. Wild fire, in spring.
War has left indelible scars on people, but war has also awakened people from their slumber and given them a different new life.
In the past one or two months, the liberated areas have accumulated a staggering amount of materials, including building materials, cotton, steel, medicine, food, machinery and equipment...
Most of these supplies were purchased in the Japanese-occupied areas by Pang Yuan's arrangements, and the other part was delivered to Shanxi one after another by the Chongqing government, which fulfilled its original promise.
Bad money chases good money. Under Pang Yuan's swift operation, the economy of the Japanese war zone was on the verge of collapse. This bloodless war was better than a hundred thousand troops.
The Japs in the Japanese-occupied areas finally reacted and strictly controlled materials, especially important strategic materials, abolished military stamps (gold stamps) and implemented a new currency system, and took very severe crackdowns on merchants who used military stamps in large quantities.
In order to avoid involving more innocent people, Pang Yuan terminated his crazy buying and buying plan.
Whether it is a hot war or a cold war, innocent people will be harmed, especially the harm caused by a bloodless economic war will affect everyone.
This is also an unavoidable choice. Only by enduring the temporary pain can we achieve national peace and prosperity.
There were still hot wars during this period, but most of them were small fights and focused on maintaining stability.
