    The military commander here sent a telegram, and he finally got in touch with the military headquarters. He just breathed a sigh of relief after receiving that the military headquarters and the main force were crossing Nanyi Lake.  Yang Zhen, who was making final preparations for a breakout, received a telegram from the army commander. He always insisted that the army commander decide on the troop's actions according to changes in the situation, but this time he expressed a different opinion.

    But Yang Zhen, who always respected the decisions of military commanders, didn¡¯t say much in the telegram, let alone issued any orders to the military headquarters and the main force.  Just telling the military commander in the telegram that the military headquarters and the main force were divided into two parts was not a good decision given the current limited strength.

    If enough ferries can be raised and before the first echelon begins to cross the river, it is not impossible to take this route.  Because a covering force can be placed on the banks of Langchuan River.  But now that the troops have completed the first echelon's crossing of the lake, it would be bad to separate the operations again.

    Especially when one takes the water route and the other takes the land route, there is still a certain distance between them.  Although they are all within the territory of Langxi, it is difficult to coordinate with each other if they operate separately.  However, after the telegram was sent, Yang Zhen hesitated and finally drafted another telegram.

    In this second telegram, Yang Zhen did not interfere too much. He just suggested in the telegram: "I don't know the situation on the east bank of Nanyi Lake now. I just put forward an opinion based on the current situation of the army. The final decision-making power  , it is still in the hands of the military commander. If it is really necessary and smooth communication between the troops can be ensured, we can act according to the new plan, but it is better not to disperse the troops at the moment."

    In two consecutive telegrams, Yang Zhen only made some suggestions for changes in the way of marching.  Yang Zhen did not respond to the military commander's telegram regarding the handling of serious consequences caused by the communications section chief's violation of work discipline.  He doesn't have the thought, time or energy to deal with a communications section chief who is temporarily confused.

    ??Through the observation during the month of coming to Wannan, I can see that this person has some abilities and is very good.  It¡¯s just that the issues involved in this matter are very deep and far from being as simple as it seems on the surface.  On the surface, it seems that the communications section chief is a little confused, but the root cause cannot be explained immediately.

    Of course Yang Zhen would not believe that this cadre who came from the old Red Army and experienced the Long March could be a traitor.  But how to deal with it now, Yang Zhen still thinks it would be better to wait until the whole army is out of danger before studying the solution.  Regarding the military commander's opinion on the current dismissal and retention, Yang Zhen believes that it is appropriate.

    After drafting the second telegram to the army commander, although Yang Zhen didn't say anything, he looked carefully at the Langchuan River on the map, but his brows were furrowed.  Looking at Yang Zhen's worried expression, Ye Chao, the deputy chief of the Military Operations Section beside him, said: "Political Commissar, why don't you agree with the Army Commander's idea of ??dividing the troops?"

    "The east bank of Nanyi Lake is located at the junction of Jiangsu and Anhui. It is the activity area of ??the Southern Jiangsu Army. It was also the main communication line between us and the Southern Jiangsu Army and the Jiangbei Army. The enemy situation and terrain there are very familiar to the Southern Jiangsu Army. There are  The responders, military headquarters and main force sent by the southern Jiangsu army should not be in major danger. "

    Regarding Ye Chao's words, Yang Zhen shook his head and said: "Ye Chao, you turned out to be a combat staff officer and a top student who graduated from the Anti-Japanese University. After the troops were separated, you were promoted to deputy chief of the combat section due to work needs. Let me ask you, as a  As a combat staff officer, in addition to the most basic staff work, what should you pay most attention to during a battle or battle? "

    Yang Zhen's rhetorical question made Ye Chao stunned for a moment and then said: "As a combat staff officer, in addition to the basic work, during combat, you also need to provide the commander with various assessments of the enemy's situation and make reasonable suggestions for combat plans. In response to this,  As the enemy situation changes, various new plans are formulated for the commander to choose.¡±

    Regarding Ye Chao's answer, Yang Zhen nodded but then shook his head and said: "You are right, but it is not comprehensive. The combat staff is the main military assistant to the military chief. He has to bear more than just formulating action plans.  , and formulate an action plan for the commander to choose. The most important thing is to provide the commander with some suggestions in the face of complex enemy situations, and to dare to question the commander's military deployment and never act blindly. "

    Having said this, Yang Zhen shook his head slightly and said: "It's just a pity that most of our combat staff do not have this ability and quality. Most of our commanders usually rely on their own abilities to direct operations. This is not normal.  It is also wrong. It is true that our staff officers have rich practical experience. If they are a battalion company commander, most of them are competent. But as combat staff officers, they are still inferior. In many cases, they themselves do not connect staff officers with grassroots commanders.  Clarify the difference between responsibilities.¡±

    "The border area between Jiangsu and Anhui has always been a tug-of-war between the Third War Zone and the Japanese and puppet troops. It is also the main guerrilla area of ??our army in southern Jiangsu. Now the main force of the second guerrilla zone has gone south to Ningguo and Jingde, and has formed an organized group around Nanyi Lake.  The troops can only be saved by loyalty, but there is more than just this.Form an organized army.  "

    "Here the three forces of the enemy and puppets, ours and the country are entangled together. As a forward confrontation area, they may be pushed to the front as a scapegoat, or they may be to expand their strength or act as thugs. The three theaters in this area and the so-called various kinds of troops recruited by the Japanese and puppet troops  There are so many troops, large and small, that either rely on the Japanese and puppet troops or the three war zones for survival, and there are so many miscellaneous armed forces in places where they are not paid. "

    "These miscellaneous armed forces, which use the so-called Self-Defense Group or Self-Defense Forces, have no organization or supplies, and have to find ways to survive themselves. Their combat effectiveness and equipment are very poor. They are not good at fighting, but they are very good at taking advantage of the situation. The military headquarters and the main force  There is a lot of baggage and a lot of non-combatants, and the covering force itself is now exhausted.¡±

    "These miscellaneous armed forces cannot fight a tough battle face to face. But they will be happy to harass or ambush us. The reason is very simple. One is to sell a good one to the Third War Zone or the Japanese and puppet troops, and get some  Arms or money. One is to get a handful of them, and get some guns, ammunition or weapons and equipment.¡±

    Speaking of this, Yang Zhen smiled and said: "Compared with the Japanese army and the regular troops of the Third Theater District, our equipment is far behind. However, after years of hard work, the weapons in our hands are no match for those who are not prepared.  The temptation is still great to use old sleeves and Italian-made rifles confiscated from Beiyang warlords.¡±

    "When our large forces were in action, they didn't dare to move. Now that we have openly fallen out with the Third War Zone, it would be strange for these guys not to take advantage of the situation. If they can make a profit without breaking their bones,  They will be very happy. Even if they can sell well to the Third War Zone, we can also get some benefits. Although we are not afraid of these miscellaneous weapons, it is always a troublesome thing to deal with. "

    "Our troops in southern Jiangsu are familiar with the area, and these local armed forces such as local snakes are even more familiar with it. Relying on their familiarity with the terrain to hit and run, and just grab a handful and leave, there is nothing we can do. Our troops are not completely out of danger yet.  , that is, there is no time, no energy, and the environment does not allow us to clear them up. "

    "And we have openly broken with the Third War Zone, and they don't have to worry about our retaliation at all. At this time, we are exhausted and eager to get away. We don't have the energy and time to retaliate against them. So I said we should take revenge on them at this time.  Splitting our forces is not the best strategy.¡±

    "Even without these miscellaneous armed forces, dividing our already insufficient troops into two marching columns in the border area between the enemy and ourselves is an inappropriate choice. It is the straight-line distance from the first echelon via the Langchuan River.  It¡¯s not far away, but there are lakes and ravines in this area. Although the terrain is flat, it is relatively messy and complicated. It will not be easy for any echelon to be attacked. "

    "In combat, we must consider not only the contrast between the enemy and the enemy and the disparity in weapons and equipment. No matter what situation, terrain is the first choice. In many cases, terrain and weather are considered more than the enemy's situation during combat. Terrain  Coupled with the enemy's situation, it is the key to determining the success or failure of a battle. "

    "In military operations, any oversight that may seem small at first may lead to a total loss. It turns out that we and the Third War Zone have not publicly broken up with each other, and those miscellaneous armed forces have not dared to do anything to us.  But now, we are not sure whether these miscellaneous armed forces will attack us. These are just outsiders who will do whatever it takes to survive.¡±

    "Ye Chao, many times these miscellaneous indigenous armed forces, relying on their familiarity with the terrain, can even pose a greater threat to us than the regular army. When the Red Army was on the Long March, a considerable number of people died at the hands of militia groups in various places. Even a considerable number of cadres were  We must not be careless about these victims."

    "So I don't agree with the main force being divided into two groups now. The big reason is that in addition to the large enemy situation and the overly complex terrain, there are scattered armed forces in those places. The main force and the military side are the most  What should be done is to clench all the troops into one fist and hit people."

    "After passing Nanyi Lake, we are already at the junction of Jiangsu and Anhui. As long as we enter Gaochun, we have entered the Maoshan base area in southern Jiangsu. Now we are dividing our troops, which has no meaning and also disperses our own strength in disguise. Nanyi Lake  It¡¯s still too close to Gaochunri War Zone or Langxi.¡±

    "Such a large number of people marching on a narrow, unobstructed river by boat can save energy, but it is not a good thing. Especially when there is no air superiority. Once encountering an enemy air attack  , the loss will not be too light.¡±

    "The military commander did not think about whether the local stubborn forces would cause some interference to us. But as combat staff, Li Zhigao and the others should not have thought about it. During the operation, a military commander should notMaybe all aspects have been considered.  That¡¯s why the cooperation of the chief of staff and combat staff is needed.  Otherwise, what do we set up a combat staff to do?  "

    "Is it just to set up an institution to provide for idlers? The quality of the chief of staff and combat staff plays a very important role in a battle. It is even the key to the success or failure of a battle. Because of our limited strength, we  Most of the battles are ambush warfare and mobile warfare. Nowadays, the focus is on guerrilla warfare, and the importance of combat staff is not obvious for the time being. But we cannot always limit our vision to large-scale face-to-face warfare.  battle."
