    Although he was mentally prepared, Yang Zhen still sighed at the rich harvest from the capture of Weihe County.  ¡¾.Com text¡¿

    Not counting the large amounts of enemy property confiscated from more than ten Japanese trading firms in Weihe County, only a train that stopped in Weihe for coal refueling fell into the hands of Yang Zhen's troops.  On the ammunition and supplies train, the military uniforms seized were enough for each person in the army to have three or four pieces.  This does not include the ammunition captured on the train. Even if the army opens up after being doubled in size, it will be enough ammunition for half a year.

    Part of the equipment carried on the arms train allowed Yang Zhen to enrich the equipment of the troops according to the organization he had in mind, reaching the standard of one light machine gun for each organic squad and a heavy machine gun company with six heavy machine guns for the battalion.  The directly-affiliated mortar platoon, which originally had only two mortars, was upgraded to an artillery company after adding six Japanese-style 90mm mortars.

    After seizing this long arms train with more than ten wagons, Yang Zhen himself could not believe that his troops would expand to an unbelievable level in a short period of time.

    "According to Yang Zhen's current equipment standards, even compared with a main force group of the Central Army with the best equipment in the Guan Nei army, it is only stronger than weak.  Not to mention Yang Zhen's old unit, the 18th Army.

    If it weren¡¯t for the smaller number of troops, according to Yang Zhen¡¯s current standards, the equipment of his troops in a simplified regiment would exceed that of the main force of the Anti-Japanese Alliance.  After coming out of the mountain, they won two battles in a row, which made the morale of the troops very high.

    The only thing Yang Zhen felt was a pity was that he could not use the tens of thousands of 75mm mountain artillery shells and two thousand 150mm heavy artillery shells carried on the arms train.  Not to mention the 150mm heavy artillery, Yang Zhen didn't even have a 75mm mountain field gun.

    However, based on the idea that I can¡¯t use it and you can¡¯t even imagine it, Yang Zhen didn¡¯t throw away these shells.  Instead, they installed fuses and buried them all on the roadbed of the Weihe Station railway track. Before leaving, they fired a salvo with mortars, detonating these shells and completely blowing up the Weihe Station.

    When Yang Zhen's troops first entered Weihe County, the people in the city were still familiar with the various military uniforms they wore, including Puppet Manchukuo police uniforms, Puppet Manchukuo regular army uniforms, Japanese military uniforms, and even  The army, which had a large portion of its people still wearing ragged civilian attire, was very disapproving.  Most people even regard them as beards taking advantage of the situation.

    But the performance of this army, which was wearing tattered military uniforms, and many of them did not even have tattered military uniforms, brought great surprise to the people in the city after entering the city.  In addition to showing some ruthless tactics in killing those puppet Manchukuo military and police officers, this army that only robbed the Japanese but did nothing to the rest of the people, even the troops who spoke politely, still caused a stir  Local people are very interested.

    Looking at the people gathered around him, Peng Dingjie seized the opportunity to carry out anti-Japanese propaganda.  It's just that there are too few manpower. Except for Zhang Ting who can help him write some slogans, he basically has to do the rest himself.

    Reluctantly taking some time to look at Peng Dingjie, who was in a hurry, Yang Zhen just smiled and shook his head.  Political propaganda work is the magic weapon for the Communist Party to get started, and it is also an important part of being able to finally win the world.  Many times the competition is not on the battlefield.

    Yang Zhen, who was also educated as a political cadre for many years in later generations, also attached great importance to political work, but he was also scratching his head about the lack of manpower.  As long as the people of the Weihe County Party Committee are not exposed, he still needs them to continue to lurk, and they must not be exposed at this time.  As for those rescued from prison, most of them are grassroots cadres who are not yet able to hold big positions and still need training.

    As for those important people who were arrested and had this ability, except for those who rebelled, almost all of them were sacrificed by the butcher's knife of the Japanese and puppet troops.

    Li Yanping, who had been looking at him carefully next to him, saw the wry smile in Yang Zhen's eyes, and said to Yang Zhen: "Commander Yang, although the remaining people in my Fourth Army no longer have much combat effectiveness, they are still under the leadership of the party after all.  Over the years, I have some knowledge of political work.¡±

    "In this case, let them temporarily change their positions as political workers. As for me, although my military ability is far from yours, I still know a little about political work. In this way, how about I become the director of the political department for you first?"

    Having said this, Li Yanping pointed to Wang Guangyu, the deputy commander of the Fourth Army next to him, and said: "But Lao Wang is an outstanding talent. He was specially sent by the commander-in-chief to the Fourth Army to assist me in my work, and his military ability is still  Yes, it's a pity to change the political work. Should you let him study more with you? "

    Hearing that Li Yanping was coming to help him organize himself, how could Yang Zhen be unhappy?  Li Yanping is a top student at Moscow Oriental University.It may not be said that his military ability is very high, but he is definitely good at political work.  How can I not be happy if such a person can come to help me?  It's just that he was originally a military commander. Isn't it a little bit that he was demoted several levels to become the director of the political department?

    Seeing the hesitant look in Yang Zhen's eyes, Li Yanping smiled and said: "Old Yang, we are all party members. What we pursue is not the level of official position or the size of the position, but the cause of the party. As long as it is beneficial to the cause of the party  , it will be beneficial to the Northeast War of Resistance, you don¡¯t have to worry too much.¡±

    Hearing Li Yanping's words, Yang Zhen nodded solemnly and said: "That feels a little wronged to Commander Li. Commander Li is willing to come to us as the director of the political department. We welcome it. As for Deputy Commander Wang, he can serve as deputy chief of staff first. Wait for the army in the future.  Expand and lead the troops.¡±

    After Yang Zhen finished speaking, Li Yanping and Wang Guangyu looked at each other, stretched out his left hand, held Yang Zhen's hand tightly and said: "Commander Yang, please rest assured, we will resolutely obey your command from now on.  "

    However, after Peng Dingjie heard that Li Yanping was coming to the army and would take over as director of the Political Department, he insisted on switching positions with Li Yanping.  Li Yanping serves as political commissar and he serves as director of the political department.  He believed that in terms of position and ability, Li Yanping would be more qualified for the position of political commissar than himself.  My ability and level are limited, so serving as a political commissar is really beyond my capabilities.

    Regarding Peng Dingjie¡¯s firm request, after hesitating for a while, Yang Zhen nodded and agreed to change Li Yanping to the position of political commissar, and Peng Dingjie to serve as director of the political department.  The remaining troops of the Fourth Anti-Alliance Army, with less than ten people, all served as instructors in each company.

    In Yang Zhen¡¯s opinion, after the failure of the Western Expedition and the situation of running out of ammunition and food, he could persevere in such a difficult environment as Daguokuizi Mountain.  Those who know that there is no hope of victory but still continue to fight against the Japanese without wavering or rebelling are definitely the backbone and the essence.

    In that kind of almost desperate environment, those who are still persisting are determined and unshakable.  And most of these people are party members and veterans who have been in the army for many years.  Putting them as political workers at the grassroots level will definitely be beneficial to the development of the army.

    Since entering Weihe County, Guo Bingxun and Yang Zhen, who have been busy counting the seized materials, collecting information and recruiting troops, reported the situation. They heard that Li Yanping was willing to be demoted several levels in succession as the leader of the army.  He appointed a director of the political department in his army who was responsible for what he regarded as trivial matters.

    And after Peng Dingjie insisted on changing his position, giving up his position as political commissar, and being demoted to the director of the Political Department, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said in admiration: "Old Yang, let's not say anything else, but you ***  It is not unreasonable for you to persist in such a difficult environment in the Northeast for seven years. "

    Regarding Guo Bingxun's praise, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "Old Guo, he can be promoted or demoted, regardless of the level of his position, and the spirit of selfless dedication to the cause of the party and the country is an excellent style of our Communists.  . I think you will see more of them when you have the chance.¡±

    After saying this, Yang Zhen looked at the two people beside him, Li Yanping and Peng Dingjie, and thought of the officials he met and heard in later generations who bought, sold, and ran for office.  All the broad-minded people who put the party's cause first can't help but feel a sincere admiration from the heart.

    Yang Zhen, who was in a daze, was suddenly awakened by several loud noises in the distance and realized that he was a little dazed. He quickly asked Guo Bingxun, who had been busy recruiting soldiers just now: "Old Guo, how many people are willing to join the army?"

    Yang Zhen changed the subject and asked about recruiting soldiers. As for the loud noises just now, he didn't even ask.  Because Yang Zhen knew that it was Li Mingrui who was blowing up the Japanese troops.  Li Mingrui will report the details truthfully later.

    When it came to recruiting soldiers, Guo Bingxun shook his head and sighed: "The situation is not good. The Japanese mass executed dozens of captured soldiers of the Anti-Japanese Alliance in the county a few days ago, and hung the heads of these captured soldiers for public display.  It has a great impact on the people.

    "The devil's move was very vicious. Now it seems that their goal has been at least partially achieved. Although the common people have a good impression of us, but out of fear of the devil's revenge, the recruitment was not smooth. In more than two hours, only a few soldiers  Ten young students signed up to join the army.¡±

    "Except for a few of the prisoners, none of them are willing to join our army. They all think that the Japanese are powerful and we only have a temporary advantage. These puppet Manchukuo soldiers and police have had many interactions with the Anti-Japanese Alliance and fought against the Japanese  The dilemma of the armed forces is very clear. It is difficult to persuade them to join us, at least now we don¡¯t have the time.¡±

    "However, when we seized the arms train at the station, we rescued more than 2,000 Japanese soldiers from another train at the station, recruited from Guan Nei and Rehe, and prepared to transport them to Mudan.Laborers from Dongning, Mishan, Hulin and other places in the Jiang area.  "

    "After the labor fighters we rescued from Wudaolingzi came forward and gave their own accounts, more than 200 people agreed to join the army. The rest still preferred to believe the lies about the generous treatment promised by the Japanese rather than join the army."

    "Lao Yang, do you think it's time to stop our recruitment work? After all, we can't stay in Weihe County for a long time, and we don't have much time to do detailed and patient work. Otherwise, if we want to expand our troops in a short time  , unless we follow ** practice to capture soldiers.¡±

    Regarding Guo Bingxun's thoughts on capturing soldiers, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "Old Guo, I still say what I said, what we need is a brave and capable army, not an army made of sand. The matter of capturing soldiers  , I won¡¯t do it, at least not now.¡±

    "The common people have no confidence in us and are frightened by the Japs' massacre methods, so recruiting troops will naturally be difficult. But as long as we continue to win battles and give the common people confidence, I think in time, everyone will naturally join the army enthusiastically."

    Speaking of this, Yang Zhen thought of something and said: "Lao Peng, are there any doctors, especially surgeons, among those who signed up to join the army? We are too short of technical personnel such as doctors and nurses now. Our troops must continue to fight.  Zhang Ting can't do it alone. Lao Peng, you can take some necessary measures when necessary for these urgently needed talents."

    "We have decided to arrange for the wounded to return to Secretariat for recuperation. How can this be done without military doctors? These wounded have experienced combat and are already considered veterans. Each of them is a treasure, and we must not let them live in vain due to lack of medical treatment.  sacrifice."

    "Most of the people who join the army are young students. There is only one doctor, but he is a traditional Chinese medicine doctor. He claims to have some research on the treatment of trauma, and he is also a well-known orthopedic doctor in Weihe County.  . Can this treat war wounds?¡±

    Hearing Yang Zhen mention the recruitment of military doctors, Guo Bingxun could only shake his head and smile bitterly.  How could I not understand what Yang Zhen said, but this is easier said than done.  Doctors, especially surgeons, are high-income earners themselves. How many of these people would abandon their families and careers to follow their own troops to pursue this career with their heads in their belts?

    It¡¯s not that these doctors are unpatriotic and don¡¯t want to drive away the little devils.  But when comparing a relatively stable, even affluent life with a life of sleeping in the open air, bleeding from the blade, and maybe being caught and beheaded by the Japanese that day, almost no one would choose the latter.  Especially when there is not even a glimmer of hope of victory in sight.

    Seeing Guo Bingxun who was in a bit of trouble, Yang Zhen shook his head and gritted his teeth and said: "If it doesn't work, just arrest them hard. Pick those who are young and have no wives or children to drag them down. As for the ideological work, do it slowly. They can afford it,  We can¡¯t afford it, and we can¡¯t afford the wounded. Tell them that we will let them back as soon as they train us talents who can replace them.¡±

    Having said this, Yang Zhen thought for a moment and then said: "Lao Guo, you personally lead a platoon to arrest. Remember, don't be afraid of publicity when arresting. The bigger the fanfare, the better, and the more people will see it.  The better.¡±

    Guo Bingxun's head turned quickly, and after thinking for a moment, he immediately understood the painstaking efforts of Yang Zhen's words; "Aren't you afraid that we will be defeated and implicate you? I will be tough, and I should be able to let you give the little devil a chance.  Let¡¯s give an explanation.¡±

    In order to maintain their long-term colonial rule over the Northeast, the little devil must win the hearts and minds of the people.  Presumably, as long as they did not participate voluntarily, they would not attack these doctors who were captured or kidnapped.  Although the little devil is cruel, in a place with a concentrated population like a town, at least he can still do a good job on the surface.

    Guo Bingxun acted very quickly this time. In less than an hour and a half, he captured four doctors and several nurses.

    Seeing the people who were tied up by Wu Huada, Zhang Ting, who had been nursing the wounded, rushed over to report the situation of the wounded to Yang Zhen and was very confused: "Haven't all those traitors been dealt with? What happened to these people? These people  They all look well-mannered and don¡¯t look like members of the Puppet Manchukuo military police?¡±

    While Zhang Ting was wondering, one of the arrested people saw her and quickly shouted: "Zhang Ting, why are you here? Please talk to them quickly and ask them to let me go."  How can they be like this and call themselves an anti-Japanese force? They are worse than bandits."

    Hearing what this guy said, a platoon leader who was ordered to cooperate with Guo Bingxun in arresting people became unwilling.  If Yang Zhen hadn't been here and didn't dare to mess around, he would have made a big mouth out of him.

    Although he didn¡¯t take action, he pushed him hard from behind and said, "You should be more polite. What do you mean by bandits? We only fight against Japanese invaders. Except for traitors, we never have anyone."?Through the Chinese.  Your mouth is dirty, be careful, I will shoot you.  "

    Hearing someone calling her name, Zhang Ting took a closer look and saw that it was one of her seniors who had just graduated last year. She quickly turned to Yang Zhen and said, "Commander Yang, I know this person. He is not a traitor, he is my senior.  He's not a traitor. What did you do to arrest him? This man is a nerd, and he can't do those things. I can guarantee that he is not a traitor."

    Hearing Zhang Ting plead for these people, Yang Zhen smiled slightly and said: "I know that he is all a doctor, not a traitor. Not only him, but those people are all doctors or surgeons. You don't need to do anything for them."  They begged for mercy because it was the doctor I arrested."

    "How can you be like this? Before entering the county this time, don't you
