    This third army division to be set up in the newly opened Fengshan and Tonghe areas was already prepared by Yang Zhen just after he captured it. It was only because of the stubbornness of Commander Chen of the fifth division of the second army that he did not  Suitable candidate, so it has been shelved for the time being.  ¡¾.Com text¡¿

    Although this position is a bit too low compared to Zhao Shangzhi¡¯s previous position as Commander-in-Chief of the North Manchurian Anti-Japanese Allied Forces.  But Yang Zhen believes that there is still a blank job there, which is very suitable for a pioneering, enterprising cadre like him who is good at starting from scratch.  Although this appointment has not been discussed with the commander-in-chief and Li Yanping, Yang Zhen thinks they will agree.

    However, although he welcomed Zhao Shangzhi¡¯s wish to work in the Second Route Army, Yang Zhen felt that it would be better to clarify some things beforehand: ¡°Old Zhao, although I am much younger than you and have far less work experience than you, I am a little bit  I think it¡¯s better to give my advice in advance.¡±

    "These words are not spoken by a superior to the person who is about to serve as his subordinate, but by a little brother giving advice to a big brother. These words can be understood as advice or persuasion."

    "I hope you can control your temper and temperament, and don't get too stalemate with your superiors and comrades. When you encounter problems, discuss with each other more and consider other people's opinions and ideas. Regarding matters at work,  Questions, let alone go online at every turn.¡±

    "I heard that you got along well with the current Commander-in-Chief Li of the Third Route Army before, right? The reason why you are so unhappy now is just because you understood the so-called central instructions at the time. I don't agree with arbitrary deductions.  hat, but many times, some things often need to be considered from several aspects.¡±

    "And our Second Route Army now has many cadres from the former Third Route Army working here. Don't get too stiff because it involves past events. I hope you can handle the relationship well with them in future work and battles.  ¡±

    "As for the reason why the cadres of the Third Route Army are indifferent to you, I think there must be some reason. Is someone deliberately sowing discord? The files of the Sanjiang Police Department of the Puppet Manchuria that we seized in Jiamusi show that they deceived you to go to Jiangbei.  The detained Chen Shaobin was arrested and rebelled in Tangyuan County in 1937. After interrogation, it has been proven that he was the one responsible for your arrest in Jiangbei."

    "In addition, according to the seized files, the political secretary Shang Liansheng who returned to China at the same time as you is also a Japanese spy. According to my subordinates' report, after your conversation last night, he approached the cadres of the Third Route Army several times and had a secret conversation for a long time.  . Although it is not clear what he reported, judging from the attitude of the Third Route Army towards you this morning, it is definitely not a good thing. "

    "I have entrusted the situation of Shang Liansheng to the commander-in-chief and asked him to forward it to the political commissar Feng Zhongyun of the Third Route Army. If they verify it, I think it will be dealt with seriously in accordance with military discipline. I think this information may change the situation.  There will also be certain benefits to your environment if you want to go back.¡±

    After listening to Yang Zhen's extremely sincere words, Zhao Shangzhi shook his head and said with some frustration: "I don't want to go back to the Third Route Army. Before coming, I told your commander-in-chief that  Working in your Second Route Army, as long as you can fight the Japanese, you can be a squad leader, or even an ordinary soldier."

    "He agreed, but asked me to talk to you privately after I return to China. Since you said you wanted me to be the commander of a military division, I have no objection. For me, it doesn't matter what the position is, as long as there are Japs to attack."

    As expected, the commander-in-chief did not express any objection to Yang Zhen's arrangement.  Not only did he express his support, he even discussed with Yang Zhen that Zhao Shangzhi should concurrently serve as the deputy commander of the Jidong Military Region, so that when Yang Zhen was performing external combat missions, he could take over the unified command of the military region's troops on his behalf.

    Now the base area has expanded, from mountainous areas to a combination of mountainous areas and plains, and even now occupies several county towns.  The scale of the arsenal has also been expanded after the machinery and equipment from Jiangbei arrived.  Except for military issues, Yang Zhen basically did not interfere in local affairs.

    Except for occasionally expressing some suggestive opinions on local work, the whole style is hands-off.  All the work in the entire region was handed over to the commander-in-chief.  I rarely ask questions. Of course, except for the absence of the commander-in-chief and when the main force is in need, I can't say that I don't ask questions at all, but it is also very rare.  "

    ¡°With both Li Yanping and Guo Bingxun focusing mainly on the work of the field troops, the commander-in-chief who lacks help must not only manage local party and government affairs, but also be responsible for the overall work of the military region, and his energy is really overwhelmed.

    What¡¯s more, in newly liberated areas, the task of countering special forces, eliminating enemy and puppet forces, and carrying out local work is very heavy.  The commander-in-chief really needs a capable man to assist him.

      Zhao Shangzhi has sufficient qualifications, abilities, and rich experience.  Since he can no longer return to the Third Route Army and has personally expressed his wish to stay in the Second Route Army, he should be allowed to serve as deputy commander of the military region in addition to serving as the commander of the third division.

    In addition to assisting the commander-in-chief in the construction of local base areas, with his outstanding ability, he can fully assume the task of commanding local troops in operations.  This allows Yang Zhen to focus his main energy on the main force without delaying the construction of local troops.

    Only when it comes to the selection of the political commissar of the third division, the commander-in-chief firmly opposed Yang Zhen¡¯s proposal that he serve as both commander and political commissar.  He was only allowed to serve as commander.  Moreover, he was firmly opposed to the position of first secretary of the district party committee.  The attitude of the commander-in-chief is obvious, that is, let Zhao Shangzhi use his commanding talents to take charge of the military work of the local armed forces in the division and even the entire military region.

    In the words of the commander-in-chief, his ability to command operations is second to none, and he also has his own unique way of conducting operations.  However, the understanding of the spirit of the central government is still a bit lacking, and sometimes it is too arbitrary. It is necessary to send a political commissar who can restrain him.

    Regarding the commander-in-chief¡¯s desire to reuse Zhao Shangzhi¡¯s excellent abilities but also to be somewhat defensive about him, Yang Zhen shook his head, neither making it clear nor expressing any objections.

    According to the history that Yang Zhen knows, when Zhao Shangzhi was expelled from the party for the second time, it was the commander-in-chief¡¯s strong opposition that allowed the North Manchuria Provincial Party Committee to reduce his punishment.  Change permanent expulsion from the party to expulsion from the party.  When he was desperate, he was invited to serve as deputy commander-in-chief of the Second Route Army.

    As for why the last two people turned against each other and why Zhao Shangzhi was kicked out of the Second Route Army, the history of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, which was originally a mess, has not been explained, and Yang Zhen is even less clear.  But after spending such a long time with the commander-in-chief, Yang Zhen believed that this was definitely not the responsibility of the commander-in-chief alone.

    Regarding the commander-in-chief's attitude, Yang Zhen had a vague feeling that the commander-in-chief at least agreed with some aspects of the Third Route Army's criticism of Zhao Shangzhi's so-called opposition to the central line.  What he opposed was the style of certain leaders of the Third Route Army who beat people to death with a stick.

    "It's just a confusing account that Yang Zhen couldn't ask unless the parties involved talked about it.  I can only express my tacit approval of the commander-in-chief's handling opinions.  Because Yang Zhen knew that it would take a long time to resolve some things.  Fortunately, now that I have established a direct line with the central government, I don't have to face the blind instructions of some people and pay unnecessary prices.

    However, despite the acquiescence, the selection of this political commissar has caused some headaches for Yang Zhen and others.  According to Zhao Shangzhi's qualifications, the most suitable candidate is the commander-in-chief.  But it is simply impossible for the commander-in-chief who already serves as the political commissar of a military region to concurrently serve as the political commissar of a separate military region.

    "And the few people who followed Zhao Shangzhi back from the Soviet Union were all his direct relatives. The commander-in-chief believed that he could select from them to serve as the political commissar of the third division. Not only could he not be able to restrain him, but he might be able to condone him in some respects.  That would completely harm him.

    As for Gao Yumin, who is currently the deputy political commissar and director of the division's political department, when he heard that he was temporarily asked to serve as the political commissar of the third division, his head shook like a lang drum. He would rather voluntarily be demoted to the second regiment, which is still short of political commissars, as political commissar, or even director of the political department.  I am not willing to go to the third zone to partner with him.

    ¡° Others are either not qualified enough or lack ability.  Since qualified political workers are now in short supply, Yang Zhen can only turn his attention to the central delegation.  Just when Yang Zhen was hesitating about how to speak to the central delegation, he suddenly remembered someone.

    Didn¡¯t the central government decide to transfer Yi Jianping and his wife to work in the Anti-Japanese Alliance?  Yi Jianping is not only a college student, but also has a high level of education.  When he was working in the customs, he served as deputy political commissar in the Independent Regiment of the Fifth Division of the Southern Hebei Military Region. He also worked underground in enemy-occupied areas for a long time, so he had rich experience.

    By asking him to serve as political commissar in the newly established third division, he can make full use of his work experience in the local military region and assist Zhao Shangzhi to open up the situation as soon as possible.  He can also use his status as a central official to meet the commander-in-chief's standards.

    Although he was suddenly mentioned as the deputy political commissar of the Independent Regiment to the position of political commissar of the military division, it was considered a leapfrog promotion.  But in Yang Zhen's view, Yi Jianping's transfer from the Guan internal forces to the Anti-Japanese Alliance work was a bit like those central cadres who were sent down in later generations.  However, the so-called temporary training of central cadres who were sent to local areas in later generations also meant promotion to one level before being sent down.

    Regardless of the effect of transferring Yi Jianping to the third division to partner with Zhao Shangzhi, Yang Zhen's original plan to appoint Yi Jianping as the political commissar of the second regiment to replace Wang Xiaoming, who has been promoted to the political commissar of the military division, can only be canceled first.  .  As for the political commissar of the second regiment, let¡¯s figure it out later.When Yang Zhen announced his intended candidate, the commander-in-chief, who really had no suitable candidate, hesitated for a long time and finally nodded in agreement.  However, although he agreed, he left a trail and only agreed that Yi Jianping would act as the agent temporarily.  As for when it will become a regular company, it depends on its performance.

    ¡°Obviously, if Yi Jianping hadn¡¯t carried the identity of a person from the central government, the commander-in-chief, who had always been steady and didn¡¯t know much about his personality and work style, would not have allowed him to serve as a political commissar in the third district.  However, the subsequent development of the situation made both the commander-in-chief and Yang Zhen feel very lucky for their original choice.

    Facts have proved that although the combination of these two people is not perfect, they also have disputes with each other.  But it has truly created a strong fighting group.  With the combination of Zhao Shangzhi's military talent and Yi Jianping's outstanding organization, propaganda, and agitation capabilities, as well as his rich experience in local armed work, the three-district cadre regiment, all composed of troops temporarily transferred from various units, was able to successfully mobilize in a short period of time.  Fighting power is formed within.

    The three-division troops, mainly composed of the newly formed three-division basic regiment, performed extremely well in several battles in the early autumn of 1939 and the beginning of winter.  Not only has he repeatedly shouldered heavy responsibilities, but he has also achieved quite brilliant results.  This third division, the latest to be established among the three military divisions, became the first local unit to be upgraded to a main division after the expansion of the Jidong Military Region.  The two big brothers who were formed before them were far behind.

    When Yang Zhen first transferred two infantry platoons from each of the three regiments of the main force, plus three independent companies drawn from the three supplementary regiments to form the three-division basic regiment, he was at least in the short term.  Within this time, there were no expectations for the combat effectiveness of this basic regiment.

    The jurisdictions of the three divisions are all newly opened areas, and the troops have just been formed.  Although six infantry platoons were transferred from the main regiment when it was formed, this core regiment is different from other divisional core regiments formed mainly with anti-alliance forces.  He does not have an old anti-Union army.  Almost everyone from top to bottom is a newcomer from Qing Yishui.

    An unfamiliar environment, unfamiliar troops, plus unfamiliarity, with almost no partners I knew before.  Yang Zhen believes that it will take at least three to five months just to smooth out this relationship.  It will take at least until the end of the year to build up combat effectiveness and enrich the still-skeletal troops.

    But no one thought that this unit, which was almost brand new from top to bottom, would develop so fast under the training of Zhao Shangzhi, who was good at guerrilla warfare. The speed of improvement in combat effectiveness could even be described as a thousand miles a day.  By the time of the battle in early autumn, the performance of this unit could almost be described as refreshing.

    With its performance in the battle, almost no one believed that this was just a local force that had been established for less than three months and was mainly composed of recruits who had completed full training but had almost no combat experience.

    Of course, these are all things for later. For Yang Zhen, what he needs most now is a helper who can stand alone.  Since the main force could not be stationed in the newly opened areas for a long time, and the newly opened areas were in urgent need of capable manpower to stabilize them, Zhao Shangzhi, who undoubtedly had outstanding abilities but was unwilling to return to work in the Third Route Army, provided him with the best candidate.  .

    It is precisely because of his deep belief in the ability of this famous anti-cooperation general that he will be known to later generations.  After Zhao Shangzhi stated that he did not want to return to the Third Route Army, Yang Zhen immediately decided without any hesitation to let Zhao Shangzhi go to the new district to serve as the commander of the military division in charge of military affairs.  He knew that this famous anti-Japanese general in Manchuria and Northern Manchuria would never let him down.
