Chapter 96: The April Division II
Before leaving, Xunhuaizhou also visited the members of the Southern Anhui tunnel construction command headed by Mao Yisheng, and had another in-depth discussion with Mao Yisheng.
In a deep conversation with Mao Yisheng, Xunhuaizhou and Mao Yisheng discussed the current status of tunnel construction and put forward higher requirements for tunnel construction, requiring Mao Yisheng to speed up the construction of tunnel construction and to make the construction of the main tunnel from Huangshan to Tianmu Mountain area the top priority at present.
To be honest, with China's current financial resources, it was originally unimaginable that human resources would build the tunnel planned by Xunhuaizhou. However, with the emergence of more and more new blasting plans proposed by Xunhuaizhou and the emergence of new machinery designed by Xunhuaizhou, which is simple but applicable to tunnel construction operations, the Southeast tunnel plan, which is like a fantasy, has actually seen it quite smoothly.
Therefore, even bridge and tunnel and civil engineering experts like Mao Yisheng also sincerely admire Xunhuaizhou and even inexplicably worship it.
The two talked from late afternoon to midnight. Xunhuaizhou and Mao Yisheng also discussed the implementation of the latest scientific and technological achievements in tunnel construction, and once again gave Mao Yisheng more new ideas.
The two chatted until late at night before saying goodbye.
Similarly, Xunhuaizhou also visited Qin Hengmin who had moved the machinery factory back to southern Anhui.
Qin Hengmin, the "Mayor of Glasses" of Jingdezhen, has now become the mechanical minister of the Anti-Japanese Democratic Government of southern Anhui.
After visiting the construction of the southern Anhui base, Qin Hengmin resolutely moved all his Hengmin Machinery Factory to southern Anhui and despite everyone's persuasion, he firmly demanded that the entire machinery factory be donated to the anti-Japanese democratic government in southern Anhui.
Xun Huaizhou expressed high praise for Qin Hengmin's behavior and negotiated with Southeast leaders such as Fang Zhimin.
Finally, it was decided to merge Hengmin Machinery Factory and the Ordnance Factory that had been transformed from Shangrao City to establish an Ordnance Construction Factory in Southern Anhui.
At Qin Hengmin's insistence, leaders of Xunhuaizhou and other Southeast Branches agreed to Qin Hengmin's resignation as mayor of Jingdezhen.
He was also appointed as the Minister of the Machinery Department of the Anti-Japanese Democratic Government of Southern Anhui and the Director of the Military Machinery Factory of Southern Anhui.
Xun Huaizhou and Qin Hengmin had many in-depth discussions on this matter, and handed him over some of the more mature gun equipment and bullet design drawings that he had taken time to sort out in later generations for in-depth research.
At the same time, Xun Huaizhou also assigned him a secret task, which was to organize mechanical and electronic researchers to study Xun Huaizhou's ultra-long-distance monitoring radar designed based on the super-strong radar drawings of later generations.
This is what Xunhuaizhou began to consider as soon as it reached this era. It is particularly important for the southeast to stick to the war of resistance against Japan in the future.
After all, at this stage, Japan's air superiority is too obvious. Although it can use special operations to destroy the enemy's airport equipment and other large amounts of damage, as special operations are used on the battlefield, the opponent will also have more and more countermeasures. Therefore, for a considerable period of time in the future, the air supremacy on the anti-Japanese battlefield will still be controlled by the Japanese devils.
You must prepare for the future and consider the issues of air control and counter-air air control more deeply and thoroughly. And make more specific plans.
Therefore, Xunhuaizhou has great high hopes for the Southeast base, which is the main force that restricts the Japanese devils in East China.
In the past two months, through the secret operations of the Southeast underground party channels and the special operations forces, a large number of scientific and technological talents in the East China region have been excavated for the Southeast base areas.
Shortly after arriving in the southern Anhui base, these talents began to study many of the more mature military equipment drawings drawn by Xunhuaizhou based on the memories of later generations that were suitable for the manufacture of this era. Xunhuaizhou's drawings all made these top domestic scientific and technological talents in this era very impressed.
Everyone agreed that the commander-in-chief was a real genius. He could actually design such advanced and exquisite weapons and equipment.
Xun Huaizhou certainly laughed it off, but he missed Zhou Tao in his heart.
It would be great if Zhou Tao was here too. With her military and technological genius, her brain contains the most advanced military scientific knowledge and drawings of military equipment that are the most advanced in later generations. If she also uses it to this world, then she still doesn't know how much effect it will have.
Whenever Xun Huaizhou thought of this, he would not involuntarily feel lost. Although reason told him that he would never have the chance to see Zhou Tao again in his life, he could not stop his deep longing for Zhou Tao.
Of course, Xun Huaizhou would not build hope in his illusory longing. He was also the best at political and military calendar knowledge in later generations.
Although I have had a deep dive into the knowledge of military technology, it is not my main hobby and main attack direction after all, so compared to Zhou Tao, I am still short in this regard. Therefore, Xunhuaizhou has begun to consider whether to explore the excellent contemporary scientific and technological elites on a large scale from Europe and the United States, and a large number of technical talents.
However, Xun Huaizhou knew that people could not become fat in one bite, and had many ideas. Although they could conceive in their minds, they could not come out to implement them at this stage. After all, the current Red Army is facing the big problem of how to gain a stronger foothold and welcome the arrival of the Anti-Japanese War in the most favorable manner.
Regarding the ideas that can explore talent reserves and research, I have to put them aside first and wait until the right time to put them into practice.
After saying goodbye to Qin Hengmin, Xun Huaizhou devoted himself to other difficult things.
Xunhuaizhou seizes almost every minute and every second he is in the southeast to make preparations for the future southeast.
He knew that it was far from enough to rely on such a short time to prepare for all the forces in southern Anhui.
Fortunately, the Southeast region has basically entered a regular and a stable and sustainable path to Jiankang.
Xun Huaizhou is even more at ease with General Su. In recent months, General Su has shown his talented military command ability to deeply admire him.
Xun Huaizhou knew that gold would shine. A military genius like General Su would shine with a little opportunity as long as history gives him a little chance, he would shine with an extremely dazzling light.
Despite this, before setting out, Xunhuaizhou still talked to Su Yu many times, especially the issue of persistence in the Tianmu Mountains, which were newly included in the Anhui, Zhejiang and Jiangxi base areas.
Because the location of this region is extremely important, in the future War of Resistance Against Japan, as long as our army can hold on to the area, it will be a sharp knife that penetrates the enemy's heart, greatly threatening the enemy's main cities controlled by the enemy, such as Shanghai, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Wuxi and other places, making the enemy unstable in the East China region.
The enemy did not dare to let go and go deep into the hinterland of China to carry out large-scale operations.
Of course, because of this, it will become particularly difficult to defend northern Zhejiang and southern Anhui. The enemy will definitely use heavy troops to carry out large-scale, multi-level and long-term encirclement and suppression of the area.
Therefore, the inside legion of the Red Third Front Army must be fully prepared for the dangerous combat environment in the future from now on, and have a full understanding of the difficulties and difficulties in the future. At the same time, we must have full confidence and strong belief in being able to persevere to the final victory.
More importantly, the entire army must use practical actions to carry out targeted training and preparations for future anti-Japanese operations.
Of course, in the future persistence of the southeast, the Anhui, Zhejiang and Jiangxi tunnel group will play an immeasurable role.
With the Anhui, Zhejiang and Jiangxi tunnel group, the Red Third Front Army can fully grasp the initiative in large-scale, long-distance, and high-mobility troop maneuvers.
This will turn the Anhui-Zhejiang-Jiangxi border areas into a real iron wall.
It is even more necessary to make the Anhui, Zhejiang and Jiangxi border areas a dead place for the Japanese devils.
According to Xun Huaizhou's idea, the southeast's persistence is not just as simple as jamming the southeast's throat.
This place must also become an extremely important part of the anti-Japanese strategy that can constantly attract Japanese devils, annihilate Japanese devils in large quantities, and finally change the entire anti-Japanese pattern.
Therefore, in the exchanges with Mao Yisheng and others, Xunhuaizhou has also made the construction of the main tunnel from Huangshan to Tianmu Mountain the focus of the current tunnel construction.
At the same time, Xunhuaizhou also allowed Fang Zhimin and other major leaders to strengthen the construction of tunnels again and invest larger manpower and material resources. In addition, seize the time to purchase and reserve more strategic materials such as steel, coal, oil, grain, cotton, etc., and make a strategic reserve for the Southeast to stick to ten years.
Fortunately, the wealth seized by the northern Zhejiang and the wealth seized was too amazing. The wealth that the local wealth in northern Zhejiang and southern Jiangsu has been exploited and plundered over the years is staggering, and many families are rich enough to rival the country.
Of course, Xun Huaizhou would be rude to these families. He did not want such a large amount of wealth to fall into the hands of Japan two years later, becoming the basis for funding the Japanese to continue fighting the war of aggression against China.
During the sudden operation in search of Huaizhou, almost none of these families had time to transfer any wealth, so they have now become the capture of the Red Army and the main source of wealth for the Southeast Anti-Japanese Democratic Government.
After obtaining these huge amounts of wealth, the Southeast Anti-Japanese Democratic Government's current financial resources are much more abundant than that of the Kuomintang authorities.
The main leaders of the Anti-Japanese Democratic Government of Anhui, Zhejiang and Jiangxi will certainly not have too many complaints about Xun Huaizhou, the great god of wealth.
After receiving the request from Xunhuaizhou to strengthen investment in the construction of southeast tunnels, comrades from Anhui, Zhejiang and Jiangxi Anti-Japanese Democratic Governments, they agreed without hesitation.
After arranging the current main work, it was already the end of April.
On the night of April 29, the Red Third Front Army's internal army 90,000 and 40,000 local troops in the Anhui, Zhejiang and Jiangxi Military Region attacked 130,000 troops, and under the leadership of Su Yu, the battle along the river was launched.
The launch of the battle along the river kicked off the outward attack plan of the Red Third Front Army's external army, and also began the process of the extremely magnificent and colorful Liberation War in the history of modern Chinese wars.
