Text Chapter 341: Really Tired

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Tired, really tired.  This is Yang Zhen's biggest feeling during the month since he arrived in Wannan.  Although before heading north, apart from finalizing the march route, he rarely intervened in military preparations.  He entrusted everything to the military commander and deputy chief of staff. His main focus was to straighten out relationships and correct abnormal phenomena within the military.

    But just sorting out the relatively complicated relationships within the Wannan army and re-establishing the commander's confidence made Yang Zhen feel more tired and energy-consuming than fighting a large-scale battle during the Anti-Japanese War.  In order to restore the military commander to his supposed state as soon as possible, Yang Zhen basically did not interfere in military work during the preparation period and left everything to the military commander.  I try not to interfere as much as possible.

    On the one hand, Yang Zhen fully delegated power, but on the other hand, the military commander's condition, especially the recovery of his self-confidence, was always unsatisfactory.  He was hesitant and hesitant about many things. As soon as Yang Zhen had a different opinion, he would immediately shut up.  There was never a time to be determined.  In the end, Yang Zhen shared most of the pressure.

    In addition to the previous preparations, after the operation to the north begins, can the nearly 10,000 cadres and soldiers trapped in southern Anhui, as well as a large number of intellectuals and overseas Chinese who have returned to fight the war, be safely brought to Jiangbei to complete the tasks assigned by the central government?  The mission was to prevent the nearly 10,000 troops from repeating the mistakes of the Southern Anhui Incident that he later knew, which put Yang Zhen under unimaginable pressure.

    The previous strategic hesitation has caused the situation around the southern Anhui army to deteriorate extremely.  The friendly forces surrounding Yunling that could become enemy forces at any time were not one division or even one corps, but seven divisions.  There are five divisions ready for battle at any time.

    There is a huge disparity in troops and equipment, and almost all the commanding heights are controlled by others.  This put the Wannan army in an extremely unfavorable situation, and they were always passive from the beginning.  Once you really lower your face and start fighting, it is not so easy to solve it easily.

    The current situation in southern Anhui is different from that in Northeast China.  In the Northeast at that time, there was almost no way out, and I was so penniless that I had no other choice but to fight to the death.  At that time, the small force composed of prisoners of war did not have any consideration no matter what they did, and they could just give it a try.  Because there is no other way to go, and there is nothing to worry about.

    But it¡¯s different in southern Anhui.  There are not only nearly ten thousand cadres and soldiers here, but also a large number of intellectuals and artists who are extremely valuable to the New Fourth Army, as well as a considerable number of senior commanders.  Said to be lightly equipped, the supplies carried, except for ammunition and food, were made as strong as possible.

    But these precious non-combatants themselves can be said to be a very heavy burden for an army.  These people have only received a small amount of military training, and most of them are not equipped with any weapons.  Physical fitness is also far inferior to ordinary cadres and soldiers.  During forced marches, most of those left behind were this kind of people.

    During the march, the troops not only have to take care of them in all aspects.  Special cover troops must also be dispatched to accommodate and protect them.  Seeing these intellectuals who marched very slowly and complained endlessly as long as the march lasted for a long time, Yang Zhen really scratched his head sometimes.

    Although your fighting power is on the pen and in the brain, not on the battlefield.  But fortunately, you are now soldiers and are no longer ordinary people. You still have to undergo necessary military training.  Even if no one will really let you go to the battlefield, your physical fitness must keep up.  At least in an emergency, you should have the capital to escape.

    But now it¡¯s good, everyone in the army is still very bookish.  Looking at those small arms and legs, Yang Zhen felt like he could fight a group of people by himself.  From the beginning of the northward evacuation operation, we had not gone very far. As soon as we crossed the Qingge River, a large number of stragglers appeared.  One also has to arrange for a warrior to watch over them.

    Although Wannan is also the frontier, it can also be regarded as the rear after all.  The unique conditions here are incomparable to the various base areas in North China that were constantly cleared and raided by the Japanese and puppet troops.  Seeing the intellectual cadres here who could even be described as pampered, Yang Zhen shook his head and said nothing.

    ¡°These people can be said to be spoiled in the relatively peaceful environment of southern Anhui.  None of them can be said to be pampered, but they are not that strong either.  If it were placed in North China, I'm afraid it wouldn't survive a major sweep.  In the Southern Anhui Incident that later generations knew about, few of these intellectuals were able to break out safely.  Most of them, including the female soldiers in the military, were lost.  Some were sacrificed and most were captured.

    ????????????????Except for sending them away first by using legal means of struggle, they were not able to be saved in the end.  Among the tens of thousands of troops in southern Anhui, most of the more than 2,000 people who were able to break out were old guerrillas, cadres who had experienced the Long March, and combat backbones.

      And now, for Yang Zhen.  It is difficult for these people to accept the loss of just one person, not to mention losing them in batches like the history they know.  Regarding Ren Guang's sacrifice, although Yang Zhen pretended to be fine on the surface, he was quite sad inside.  This is not only the sacrifice of a league cadre, but also the loss of a talented musician in China.

    At this time, Yang Zhen discovered that his understanding of history in later generations has even become a burden in his heart.  A prophet possesses not only motivation and the ability to predict the future, but also pressure.  There is no first place in literature and no second place in military power. There will never be a runner-up on the battlefield.  The battle is defeated and there is nothing left.

    After the transfer operation to the north began, especially after the encounter with the 40th Division of the Third Theater Zone on the Xingtan front line, Yang Zhen discovered that sometimes it is really the ignorant who are meaningless.  Sometimes, knowing too much about the subsequent development of things actually becomes a considerable burden on myself.

    Southern Anhui is different from Northeast China. There, your life is almost picked up, and it is earned by trying your best.  Even if you have some knowledge, you still have to work hard and fight on your own to truly win.  It can be said that he is truly starting from scratch.  There are no complicated personnel relationships, let alone swirling intra-party struggles.  There is no need to face the complicated political situation in the country, and it can be said that it is a light journey.

    When arriving in Wannan, even though Yang Zhen didn¡¯t want to and was unwilling to do so, he was inevitably involved in the whirlpool.  Yang Zhen does not have the mentality and mentality to have endless fun fighting with the sky and having endless fun with others.  Compared to being unable to sleep for days and nights on the battlefield, Yang Zhen's tiredness was more psychological.

    However, fortunately, the main force is now out of danger.  If there are no major accidents, judging from the time and location, the military headquarters and the southern Anhui army should have safely arrived at the southern Jiangsu guerrillas with the support of the southern Jiangsu army. They rested and prepared to cross the river and head north.

    As for the small force he brought with him, at the current stage, it can be said that it has basically broken out of the encirclement.  , as long as the remaining journey is not too bad, if luck is not too bad, you can successfully reach the Fanchang line, that is, the sea is wide and the fish can jump, and the sky is high, the birds can fly.  As for crossing the river, there is no rush.

    Although the troops suffered certain losses during the transfer, the essence was finally brought out.  The backbone and vitality of the army are still there.  As for losses, that is a price that must be paid, and it is the only way for an army to move from guerrillas to regularity.

    Looking at the dark mountains in front of him, although the dawn was already in front of him, Yang Zhen knew that he could not relax. The darkness before dawn was always the darkest.  The dawn is ahead, but it does not mean that you are already under the light of dawn.  Having overcome so many obstacles, it would be unspeakable to fall down when you reach out and already touch victory.

    After crossing the Niulan Ridge line, Yang Zhen not only did not relax at all, but became more careful while marching.  They avoided all inhabited places and did not find any guide. With only a map and a compass, they led the troops towards the deep mountains and old forests of Chikeng Mountain.

    When the sky began to get brighter, Yang Zhen looked at the mountain ridges in front of him. He mentally calculated the marching speed and direction of the troops. After confirming that he was in the hinterland of Chikeng Mountain, Yang Zhen turned his head and looked at Ye beside him.  Chaodao: 'Order the troops to rest on the spot.  Also, find me a few cadres above the regiment level.  Ask Lee Myung-bak to withdraw and tell him that he will arrange the sentry today.  "

    After hearing Yang Zhen's order, Ye Chao said: "Political Commissar, how long do you think is the appropriate time to rest? Also, we have very few supplies left. The soldiers marched forcibly all night, and they had no food in their stomachs and could not regain their strength.  I'm afraid the march will be delayed. Should we send someone down the mountain to buy some food?"

    "We are familiar with the people here, and since it is a mountainous area, the enemy's protection system is relatively weak. I think if we are more careful, buying some food to supplement supplies should not be a big problem.  We have developed some basic people here in secret before, so there should be nothing to worry about.¡±

    Regarding Ye Chao's suggestion, Yang Zhen shook his head slightly and said: "First go and collect how much dry food the soldiers have and distribute it evenly. Can you hold on a little longer? According to our marching speed last night, if  Now we have been resting until this afternoon. We will be able to completely cross the Qingge River by tomorrow morning at the latest.¡±

    Ye Chao immediately understood Yang Zhen¡¯s train of thought after thinking about it for a while.  But he could only shake his head and smile bitterly: "Political Commissar, the troops are marching continuously, and the soldiers' physical strength is greatly exhausted. The dry food that used to last for seven days has now bottomed out. Before setting off last night, I had already  The soldiers collected all the dry food and food on hand and addedTogether they weigh less than sixty pounds.  "

    "This number, on average, the soldiers in the entire army cannot even reach six taels. This number simply cannot make up for the excessive physical energy consumption of the soldiers during the previous march. Political commissars and soldiers' physical fitness cannot keep up. Once a large number of stragglers appear,  This situation will be harmful to our next action plan but not beneficial at all. We cannot march and fight on an empty stomach.¡±
