Text Chapter 34 Recruitment Methods for the Marching Army

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    As for the political mobilization ability of the Advance Army, I still don¡¯t know what method the Advance Army used to recruit so many additional troops in a short period of time. Yang Zhen is really impressed now. If it were the Anti-Japanese Alliance,  But there is no such big way to recruit so many supplementary soldiers at once in the new area, which is still considered a guerrilla zone.

    When the advancing army first entered Rehe, it was still in a difficult situation with no one to carry the wounded and no one to transport ammunition. However, when the main force withdrew and headed north, it was able to mobilize and bring out nearly 10,000 soldiers in such a short period of time.  The number of new recruits was an unexpected surprise for Yang Zhen, who had always been tight on soldiers. If it hadn't been for the sequelae of more surprises than joy, Yang Zhen would have even wanted to learn from the advancing army.

    The total population of Rehe is indeed quite large. According to the captured Japanese military information, there are more than 6 million people. However, most of them are concentrated in Renan and the area east of the Yechi Railway. The advancing troops mainly gather in the west of Rehe.  The number was not large, but it could mobilize 10,000 additional troops. In the words of later generations, this political work was quite impressive.

    You must know that the current Rehe is not the old base area in the pass. The consciousness of the people here is far from being developed. Coupled with the strict rule of the Japanese and puppets before, these people have always been repulsive to the advancing army after entering Rehe.  , Yang Zhen heard the political commissar mention the embarrassment when the advancing army first entered Rehe. It was not only a matter of passing through seven difficulties, it can be described as ninety-nine or eighty-one difficulties.

    If the advancing army did not have tens of thousands of troops and tens of thousands of guns, perhaps the local people would first gather under the coercion of the Japanese and puppets to defeat the advancing army, kill the wounded of the advancing army, and carry their heads to the Japanese.  I can do anything like asking for a reward, but there is nothing I can't do.

    In the past, the Kwantung Army had cruel and high-pressure rule, and they did not understand the advancing army. Even under the propaganda of the Japanese and puppets, they regarded the advancing army as a beard. In addition, before the September 18th Incident, they had no understanding of the commander-in-chief and that general.  The troops were too disgusted, and these common people were not welcoming or even hostile to the advancing army.

    Under such circumstances, the advancing army could actually produce tens of thousands of recruits, which was incredible to Yang Zhen. Yang Zhen believed that the advancing army would never do anything to recruit young men, although in the way of mobilization  Yes, there are definitely some problems, but they will never be forced into sex.

    Before, he was still thinking about where to find reserve soldiers for the Forward Army to supplement the losses of the Forward Army in the battle in Jehol and to enrich their organization. However, he did not expect that the Forward Army actually solved the problem on its own during the evacuation and could get additional troops.  The formation of new troops, for Yang Zhen, can be said to have solved the most troublesome thing.

    Of course, Yang Zhen still doesn¡¯t know how the advancing army managed to recruit so many additional troops in such a short period of time. It wasn¡¯t until a month later that Wang Guangyu asked the base area to mobilize a large number of trains to transfer the refugees from Jehol, and through  When hundreds of thousands of people with their families and families were transported by railway to Northern Manchuria, Yang Zhen, who couldn't laugh or cry, realized what was going on.

    It turned out that when the advancing army was fighting deep in Redong, they were trying to mobilize local people to join the army. No matter how they publicized it, the results were always not as good as expected. After only a few people joined the army, no one knew which unscrupulous political worker came out.  He came up with a bad idea and when mobilizing the people, he announced that only one family member would enlist in the army.

    The advancing army will move all the generals and their families to Northern Manchuria. After these military families arrive in Northern Manchuria, one person from each family will join the army and be allocated forty acres of land. If two people join the army, it will be eighty acres of land. As long as this battle is completed, the advancing army will  As soon as they marched, they immediately mobilized trains to transport all their families to Northern Manchuria.

    Now that the battle is over, the entire line has entered a state of rest, and the railway has been reopened. The common people who accompanied the advancing army to retreat to Rexi are clamoring for the remaining troops of the advancing army to fulfill their original promise. If you don't agree, they will surround you.  If you don't leave, for these common people, our children have been sent to your army, so the promise you made must be fulfilled.

    The land in the Rexi mountainous area is barren, and it is all mountain skin. Not to mention, the people who evacuated with the advancing army had no food, no clothes, and no houses, so they naturally gave up. In the past, they were all from Rexi.  They moved to Redong area, but no one from Redong area came to Redong area and suffered the consequences.

    Most of the counties in the Rexi region, even in the following decades, were national-level poverty-stricken counties. The poor ones were quite famous throughout the country. However, in this country with backward transportation, most of the agriculture still depends on the weather.  The times can only be poorer but definitely not better than those of later generations. It is strange that those ordinary people who believed in the propaganda of the March on Army were incompetent in the face of this scene.

    In addition, good things don¡¯t go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. These things spread to the ears of the local people in Rexi with the people who migrated from Redong.Naturally, it caused a sensation. The Rexi Mountain area was originally barren and the people were poor. Except for the opium production, the production of other crops was very low.

    The yield of one acre of sorghum is less than half of that in Northern Manchuria. In many local villages, a poor family only has one pair of trousers. Where is Northern Manchuria? I heard propaganda from those advancing military and political workers that the fertile land can be fertilized by just spreading seeds and not caring much.  When growing crops, the yield of sorghum per acre is several times that of Rexi.

    Moreover, if there are two soldiers in a family, they will be given 80 acres of land. Even if there is one soldier, they will be given 40 acres of land. They also encourage land reclamation there, and whoever clears out land belongs to whom.  In Xishan District, most families only have a few acres of land, and most of them depend on the weather. The barren mountainous land and low agricultural output make it very tempting for most people who are in extreme poverty.

    Many sons do not want to join the army. Who does not want his wife and children to be on the kang, and who is willing to go to the battlefield to fight life and death? The common people of this era are not so conscious, but they are coveted by their parents who covet at least forty acres of land.  They were tied to the troops with ropes, and even from wealthy families, two of them were sent as a gift.

    The temptation of eighty acres of land is still fat and oily, and it is high-quality land that guarantees harvests despite droughts and floods. For these extremely poor people, this temptation is unparalleled. If you give up two sons, you can get a whole family.  After having enough food, the other sons can also marry wives. If they do well, they can also get a pound of meat during the New Year. At least the whole family will not have to wear a pair of pants.

    So there is no need to do any mobilization. Although the attitude towards advancing the army was not too cold before, it was definitely not enthusiastic. The enthusiasm of the common people to join the army was quite high. For these common people, it was someone who sent you to the army anyway.  Don't keep your promises.

    Not counting the more than 10,000 recruits brought back by the main force of the advancing army from the north, the troops who stayed in Rexi and insisted on recruiting more than 7,000 recruits during this period, but their children have been sent to the army, but now time has passed so  It's been a long time and you haven't made any move, so the people will naturally quit.

    The former commander of the first column of the advancing army, who was responsible for commanding the remaining troops of the advancing army and concurrently served as the deputy commander of the Western Manchuria Military Region and the commander of the Jehol Military Region, faced his headquarters station with three floors inside and three outside, surrounded by ordinary people all day long.  After severely criticizing the political cadre who made such a stupid mistake, and scolding the Political Department who actually followed this ridiculous method.

    Unable to accommodate these people, he could only find Wang Guangyu, who was also the commander of the Western Manchuria Military Region at this time, to solve this matter. He, the commander, was surrounded by a large number of people all day long and scolded him. This matter  What has happened? I can't do anything all day long, let alone, I have almost become a street rat that everyone yells at.

    But how could Wang Guangyu solve so many people's resettlement problems at once? In addition to finding ways to resettle part of the 200,000 acres of cultivated land occupied by the Japanese pioneer group in Linxi, he could only settle the rest.  Ask the Anti-League Headquarters and the Northeast Bureau for help in finding a solution.

    The weather is getting colder now. Ximan, which is a nomadic zone, can arrange so many people at once. Now he has neither the ability nor the necessary supplies to accommodate these people with their families and their families hanging around all day long.  Common people at the Durehe Military Region Headquarters.

    After receiving Wang Guangyu's telegram asking for help, Yang Zhen could only smile bitterly, but now that the matter had come out, it would not work without solving it. Yang Zhen could only coordinate the Northeast Bureau to mobilize more than 20 trains, a large amount of food, and  Two entire automobile regiments were mobilized to go south, together with the Western Manchuria Military Region automobile regiment, specifically responsible for transporting civilians from Rehe to Tongliao.

    Taking into account the weather and the physical condition of these people, Yang Zhen also dispatched a large number of medical staff from the military region general hospital and various hospitals in the base area to accompany him south to provide relief.  The 6th, 17th, and 17th divisions were all mobilized to collect wood to build temporary houses for these people.

    At the same time, the Northeast Bureau also mobilized six special trains to relocate these people in the Fuyu, Yangjiadian, Keshan, Dedu, and Longzhen areas, mobilizing 400,000 tons of coal, 20 million kilograms of grain, and 300,000 tons of grain.  Cotton-padded clothes, 100,000 quilts, 50,000 iron pots, and millions of kilograms of cabbage, radishes and other winter vegetables.

    They also extracted 20,000 blankets, 100,000 straw mats, and a large amount of meat from the inventory. After a month and a half of work, they finally settled these people before the first smoky snow fell. As for the distribution  Regarding the land, the Northeast Bureau did not break its promise. It came according to the quantity promised by the advancing army. It was just that the wasteland reclaimed by the Production and Construction Corps that worked overtime in the first half of the year was handed over to these ordinary people at once.

    You know, this is not a population of tens of thousands, or even?A large-scale relocation of tens of thousands of people. The people of several counties in Rexi who were evacuated with the advancing army. The population moved out in this entire large-scale relocation has reached more than 900,000. Several counties in Rexi where the advancing army was originally active  , almost all gone.

    In order to raise supplies such as one quilt for three people, one iron pot for one family, two hundred kilograms of winter vegetables for one family, and one cotton-padded coat for each person, the Northeast Bureau spent a lot of effort, not only collecting old cotton-padded clothes in stock  All of them were used up, and the people in the base area were also mobilized to donate part of it, so that they could barely get enough of these supplies.

    While the advancing army recruited more than 10,000 recruits, it also put considerable pressure on the Anti-Japanese Alliance. Nearly one million ordinary people appeared almost suddenly. If there was preparation, for Yang Zhen, the arrival of these ordinary people would be enough.  It made him dance with joy, but he was not prepared.

    All materials need to be prepared immediately, and with such a large population suddenly migrating, the pressure on the entire Northeast Bureau and the Northeast Military Region can be imagined. If the Production and Construction Corps had not made a lot of preparations for next spring plowing, these people would  I really don¡¯t know how to resettle it. After all, no matter how much wasteland is available for reclamation, it will still take time.
