    Yang Zhen looked at Guo Bingxun and calmly described his thoughts: "The artillery regiment directly under the column consists of two 122 howitzer battalions, a 75th field artillery battalion, a 122 rocket launcher battalion, and a 150  By forming a heavy artillery battalion, the firepower of our division artillery has been greatly strengthened on the original basis, and the artillery of the column has also been greatly strengthened. "

    "As for the 100mm howitzers and 105mm field guns in our hands, it also depends on the situation. If they can no longer be used, then all of them will be gradually replaced. We cannot let these old artillery pieces go because we are reluctant to do so.  The artillerymen suffered no casualties on the battlefield, but fell under their own artillery fire."

    "As for the directly-affiliated artillery in the future, it will mainly consist of cannons over 105 mm, 150 howitzers, and 122 rocket launchers, supplemented by heavy mountain artillery and some field artillery. The original regiment-affiliated structure will remain unchanged.  According to the existing method, it will be strengthened to all fronts in wartime, but at the same time, a group of deputy division-level headquarters will be established to manage the training and assessment of the artillery units directly under the artillery in peacetime, and in wartime, it will serve as a unified command organization to strengthen the artillery on all fronts. "

    "Lao Guo, our aviation strength is still limited, especially in terms of close ground support. With the loss of Su-2 light bombers and the lack of spare parts, there has been a lack of follow-up. Ground operations, shallow and deep firepower  Support, blockade, and interception mainly rely on ground artillery.¡±

    "We don't have that much capital, so we put our A-20 attack aircraft and DB three bombers, which are also responsible for deep fire suppression and ground blockade tasks, into tactical fire support within 20 kilometers of the front line. These two  To others, the aircraft is a tactical aircraft, but when it comes to us, it becomes a strategic aircraft.¡±

    "We don't have enough strength to devote all the Il-4 bombers we have on hand, which can be used as strategic bombers, to front-line fire support. Under such circumstances, we must try our best to develop ground artillery.  Our main means of solving shallow and deep fire suppression and close fire support.¡±

    "It's not that I'm too obsessed with the superiority of artillery firepower, but this is the actual situation we are facing now. Under the circumstances that our military's aviation force is still very weak and unable to undertake front-line ground support tasks on a large scale, I would like to  Doing everything possible to strengthen artillery has become our only option.¡±

    "If we also had ground attack aircraft with excellent performance like the Soviet-made Il-2 attack aircraft, we wouldn't have to bother with so many artillery pieces, but we don't have them now. We still have to fight for frontline air supremacy.  We cannot use all the fighter units that have already formed combat capabilities for ground attack."

    "Furthermore, the training difficulty of artillery is much less than that of aviation, and the resources consumed are incomparable. How to build a powerful artillery force with clear, complete and complete firepower configuration has also become our task.  The top priority is that when we are unable to solve the problem of artillery production and have no design capabilities, it is also a wise approach for us to choose outsiders as our target.¡±

    "Don't you, the Soviets, lack tactical anti-tank weapons? Don't you lack effective military trucks? Well, fine, we will give it to you, but you must also provide us with what I want. This is called each getting what he needs.  A true fraternal party is the true style of Big Brother, isn¡¯t it?¡±

    "But Lao Guo, now the Soviets are losing one battle after another. The current Soviet army has almost no resistance to the German mechanized armored clusters. In addition to the 45mm anti-tank artillery, they only have the main defense against the German army.  A 14mm anti-tank gun that has little effect on tanks, as well as some anti-tank grenades.¡±

    "Facing the German armored mechanized assault group, the Soviet army is now seriously lacking individual anti-tank weapons. At this time, they are asking for us, but Lao Guo, the Soviets themselves have relatively strong military research and production capabilities.  Like recoilless rifles, it¡¯s not that the Soviet army didn¡¯t have similar weapons, it¡¯s just that they didn¡¯t pay attention to them.¡±

    "Weapons with relatively simple structures such as recoilless rifles and rocket launchers are just that they are unwilling or have not thought that if they want to develop and produce them by themselves, they can develop the same or even better weapons than us in the shortest time.  Even better weapons.¡±

    "If we pass this opportunity and wait for them to develop their own anti-tank individual weapons or the Americans provide new anti-tank weapons, then we will have to spend more money to get these two types of advanced artillery.  The price is too high, Lao Guo, if you don¡¯t want to let the child catch the wolf.¡±

    "However, a recoilless rifle and rocket launcher alone are probably not worth the high price the Soviets paid. And our blood transfusions are in the hands of the Soviets, which is also a fatal danger for us, so inIn this exchange, the price we pay may be higher. To catch big fish, we need to use good bait.  "

    "Americans produce millions of cars every year. Apart from their own military expansion and aid to Britain and the Soviet Union, they are still capable of fully meeting our needs. American-made trucks will continue to arrive in the future, and we will not be able to do so at the same time.  All inventories must be handed over to the Soviet Union."

    "Together with the batch of U.S-made trucks imported in the first half of this year, we currently have more than 5,000 trucks in stock on hand, plus the 1,200 Soviet-made trucks that have been transferred to reserve, we still have nearly 7,000 trucks in stock.  , just transferring a thousand vehicles, it will not affect our use for the time being. "

    "The most important thing is that the period from the end of this year to the beginning of next year when the Soviet army is in the most difficult period is our only chance to get new weapons from them. When the US aid cars and planes arrive in large numbers in the first half of next year,  If we try to get what we want from the greedy and cunning Soviets, we will probably pay an even greater price."

    "Didn't Pearson say that a high-level delegation of theirs is in the Soviet Union to discuss with the Soviets the issue of U.S. aid to the Soviet Union. However, for the Soviets, the assistance that the Americans are still negotiating is still far away for the time being.  Water cannot quench the thirst, especially aid from the Americans. It depends on how well the Soviets fight at the end of this year before they arrive in large quantities. "

    "The Americans will not allow their weapons and equipment to fall into the hands of their future enemies with a one in 10,000 chance. Just like last year in the Western European campaign, France was defeated and surrendered. Although France was not occupied by the Germans, the United States  France spent a lot of money to order a large number of aircraft and military supplies, but none of them were delivered. "

    "The equipment and combat aircraft ordered by the Dutch were shipped directly to the Dutch East Indies, far away from Europe. The Americans are extremely realistic. They will not take any risks and pay a fearless price. Now the Americans will provide  There won¡¯t be any supplies, but there won¡¯t be too much.¡±

    "With the Soviet Union's current defeats, Americans probably don't have much confidence in how long they can resist it. In addition, the United States has not yet carried out wartime mobilization, its production capacity has not yet been fully utilized, and there are ideological barriers.  The assistance from the Americans, at least until this year or next May, will still be in the mirror for the Soviets, and it cannot be said that it will not be given at all, but what is currently provided is far from meeting the needs of the Soviet army. "

    "At this time, the Americans can wait leisurely, but I am afraid that the Soviets do not have this patience anymore. They have suffered huge losses in several large-scale sieges. The Soviets, who are moving their western industrial base eastward, are afraid that trucks, tanks and aircraft will  The demand may be greater than we expected.¡±

    "Although I don't like to add insult to injury, I don't have the habit of sending goose feathers thousands of miles away. For us, this is the best opportunity to get the equipment we need. We don't have to spend money at this time, but we can get through this.  There is no such store in the village. We have been ripped off by the Soviets since we came out of the mountains. At this time, it is time to recover some capital. "

    "As for fishing, if you don't drop some good bait, can the cunning fish bite the hook? The Soviets who have not given up trying to control us are a bear that eats people without spitting out bones. We don't need to order good things, they are not  They will take the bait, at least on the surface, and at least let them feel that the deal is worthwhile. "

    "A thousand American-made trucks, don't worry, the Americans will replenish us with more by the end of the year or early next year at the latest. Maybe even the Americans, who are now under increasing pressure from Japan in Southeast Asia, will add more to us next month."  That will give us a complete complement.¡±

    "As for the Soviets, aren't they greedy? One day, we will make them spit out their bones and flesh. But Lao Li, when you and the commander-in-chief are negotiating with them, don't give up all your cards at once.  Isn¡¯t it better to give them the light and see the flowers in the smoke?¡±

    Having said this, Yang Zhen paused and said: "And Lao Li, when you go back, talk to the commander-in-chief. In the future, unless it involves military issues or some imported technology issues, all other matters should be negotiated with the United States, the Soviet Union, and Britain.  , I will not participate again, and you, the political commissar of the military region, do not want to participate either. The Northeast Bureau and the Northeast Working Committee will still be the main ones. You and I are just coming up with bad ideas behind the scenes."

    ¡°In the future, with the exception of the Production and Construction Corps, the military will gradually be separated from local work. Of course, internal affairs forces in various regions will still be managed by military regions, but the rest of economic construction, public security and internal security, production and life, are more appropriately managed by local comrades.  Some."

    ¡°Especially in commerce, after this battle, the army completely withdrew from commerce. All military personnel were not allowed to do business, let alone start any enterprises.?The cooking pots, restaurants, hotels, and food factories that were originally used to supplement funds were all handed over to local comrades, except for some private plots and breeding farms that continued to provide the vegetables and meat needed by the army.  "

    "There are also various breeding farms currently under the management of the army, except for the two military horse farms, all have been handed over to the Northeast Bureau and the Northeast People's Government. The army will only conduct operations and training in the future, and all living expenses, including food, will be borne by  Allocated uniformly by the military region.¡±

    "In the past, each army was allowed to operate some businesses on its own to make up for the lack of funds allocated by the headquarters and to improve the food level of the troops. However, it seems that allowing the troops to do business has indeed played some role, but the side effects are even greater, and now there are even more  Serious violations of law and discipline and corruption.¡±

    "No matter what the starting point is when doing business in the army, it will cause some corruption, and this kind of corruption will also directly affect or even corrode the combat effectiveness of the army, deepen the disunity within the army, and cause some unnecessary troubles. Now  All aspects of the base area are on track, and it¡¯s time for the troops to escape.¡±
