With the end of the public memorial event held in Yan'an, this Martyrs' Cemetery located in Yan'an City has also become a holy place in the hearts of many guard division officers and soldiers. As soldiers, they all hope to lie there in the future.

Such a wish sounds a bit unpleasant, but for many ordinary guard division soldiers, they think the martyrs' cemetery is the best destination. If they die in battle, they all hope to bury the body there.

What even surprised many leaders of the central departments in Yan'an was that during their stay in Yan'an, the people of Yan'an would spontaneously go to worship. This situation might have been something that no one had expected before.

But for the advocate He Zhengdao, who came from later generations, he knew very well that in the future, these heroic spirits who sacrificed their lives for the country would often not receive the due memorial service. Many people even forgot them at all.

In the future, some of these martyrs' cemeteries will even be prejudiced in the name of obstructing economic development, or there will be a situation where no one will be asked about disrepair. Seeing these reports in his previous life, He Zhengdao felt a deep sense of sorrow and anger.

Now that he has the opportunity to come to this era, he feels he should do something about it. At least He Zhengdao hopes that one day in the future, when he falls down and burys them in these cemeteries, he does not want to see his tombstone flattened underground.

Forgetting history means betrayal, and denying guilt means repeat offense. He Zhengdao thinks this sentence makes sense. From the early days of the War of Resistance Against Japan, we used such education to tell everyone that peace is not easy to come by.

I also hope that with the help of such public memorials, everyone who is still alive needs to remember historical experiences and lessons and not repeat the same mistakes. I also hope that these martyrs who fight for the country, nation and people will not let them down.

After the public memorial ceremony, the military and political commanders of the divisions who came to participate in the military and political meeting also left Yan'an one after another. As for He Zhengdao, he needed to deal with some aftermath and was also left in Yan'an for a few more days.

Although He Zhengdao needed to go back to Yulin this Spring Festival, and even needed to go to the army to inspect the New Year. However, during this period in Yan'an, Mao Taizu and General Zhu often talked to him.

When asked about any suggestions for next year's combat deployment, He Zhengdao also said directly: "Chairman, Commander-in-Chief, if I ask me to say the suggestions, I still agree with what the Chairman said, and next year will focus on strategic defense.

As far as our army is concerned, if we expand the base area, we can only expand the base area behind enemy lines. With the current base area firmly insufficiency, our main division with numbers will continue to penetrate into the North China direction.

As for the expanded new troops, they enter the frontier areas of the base and fight with the Japanese troops attacking our base. Through this defensive war, we will continue to temper and beat our troops to prepare for the future counterattack.

Secondly, after discussing with the old leaders of each division during this period, I felt that our current enrollment scale of the Anti-Japanese University is limited. Most of them only train officers at the first level of the division, but the officer training in the battalion and company is lacking.

I have an idea, hoping that the Chairman and the Commander-in-Chief can consider it. That is, to set up a teaching regiment, recruit battalion-level officers from various divisions and garrison troops, and conduct three months of military command training.

If conditions permit in the future, the teaching team will be expanded. As for the commander of the teaching team, the commander with rich combat experience will be selected. Again, the teacher will be selected to teach them.

In a year, we can conduct four phases of training. After the trained battalion company commander returns to the army, he believes that the combat command of the battalion company troops will also be carried out in combination with the learned combat theories.

If these battalion company commanders are promoted in the future, they will not have to rush to transfer them to the Anti-Japanese University side to study in a short period of time. In this way, they can effectively strengthen the combat command literacy of our backbone commanders and lay a solid foundation for future military expansion.

I even think that the Northwest Army and Northeast Army troops currently being incorporated can all draw their battalion commanders. After three months of teaching regiment study, I believe they will have a deeper understanding of our army's combat methods.

This also helps them to integrate into our troops better and faster. When they really want to pull them to the front line in the future, I believe that there will be no mistakes in the connection and coordination of the troops due to different combat concepts."

Listening to He Zhengdao's words, Mao Taizu said at the right time: "Is it the same unit as the teaching team under Lao Jiang?"

‘Yes! But I personally think that the teaching regiment should be a unit that trains grassroots officers, not a unit similar to the military police. The unit with the battalion company commander as the backbone is naturally unsightly.

But I personally think that if such troops are scattered throughout the army, they will play a greater role. These grassroots commanders, delegated to grassroots troops as battalion company commanders, can actually play a greater role.

Another reason I think should be formed is that this can effectively improve the comprehensive command and cooperation capabilities of our grassroots commanders. It is also conducive to us controlling the command level of grassroots troops so that the troops can truly obey the party's command!’

In He Zhengdao's view, during the Battle of Song and Shanghai, Chiang Kai-shek brought the teaching team to the battlefield, and even during the Battle of Nanjing, he also had high hopes for this force, which seemed a bit wasteful.

The teaching team is a trump card force. But if the officers of these teaching teams are sent to other grassroots troops, the combat effectiveness of these grassroots troops will be greatly improved.

In addition, it is somewhat irrational to push this ace force to confront the main force of the Japanese army. Speaking of which, He Zhengdao felt that the comprehensive combat effectiveness of this force was probably similar to the reconnaissance brigade of the column.

Such troops should fight in the form of small teams and go deep into the enemy to raid and destroy. In this way, their role will be more useful than blocking the Japanese main offensive route and acting as defensive forces.

Facing He Zhengdao's suggestion, Mao Taizu also felt it was very necessary. In the current organization of the Eighth Route Army, the battalion company commander is undoubtedly the backbone commanding force of each main force. The strength of these officers also determines the strength of the combat effectiveness of the troops.

Although the current anti-Japanese war has expanded the enrollment scale, the number of officers at the first-level regiment level is somewhat unable to train. What's more, what about the larger number of battalion company-level officers?

Thinking of this, Mao Taizu asked: "Boss, what do you think about this?"

‘It is very necessary! At present, the Anti-Japanese University is considered a university in our Eighth Route Army, but middle schools and primary schools are also very necessary. Without middle schools and primary schools, the university may have a very high chance of losing its source of students, and even some freshmen cannot keep up.

If a teaching team is formed, even if our Eighth Route Army has a middle school. In the future, a teaching team will be formed in each division to train platoon leaders or military backbones, and they can be regarded as primary schools.

Outstanding graduates in primary schools will enter the teaching group to go to middle school. Outstanding graduates from this middle school will come to further their studies in the Anti-Japanese University in the future. The military commanders trained in this way will believe that they have a better foundation and can better improve the combat effectiveness of the troops.

However, this kind of teaching group with military academy nature is probably not suitable for Yan'an. If it is placed in Xi'an, it seems a bit inappropriate. Why not do this? The first teaching group will be placed in your Yulin Military Region.

You are the author of the Eighth Route Army training outline and are also recognized as the Yum General in our army. Secondly, the Saber Special Forces and the Reconnaissance Brigade you trained are also the elite among our army's elite. I think the first regiment commander is also the one who serves as the leader, which is very suitable for me.

The most important thing is that there is an arsenal in Yulin. If you want to conduct weapon training, it will be more convenient for you. At least I know that those division commanders are interested in giving you a vacancies training camp during this meeting.

Since they all recognize your level of training, I think it should be appropriate for you to form the first teaching regiment. In this way, you can also teach these battalion company commanders in the future without delaying your work in the base area.’

In fact, when he made this suggestion, He Zhengdao also knew that it was somewhat inappropriate to place this teaching group in Yan'an. The place that should be placed most should be Xi'an, where the Eighth Route Army headquarters is currently located.

But if you want to say the most appropriate words, He Zhengdao thinks it is the most appropriate in Yulin. At least He Zhengdao believes that in combat theory experience, he will not be worse than anyone else. After all, he learned this before traveling through time!

Countless combat experience cases can be told to the students of the teaching team. By analyzing various combat cases, these students can control more theoretical knowledge on battlefield handling.

If they encounter such a situation in the future, they can also make corresponding solutions in time. However, if He Zhengdao cannot recommend himself in this case, he still needs to obey the orders of the Central Committee and the Eighth Route Army Headquarters.

Listening to Mr. Zhu's words, Mao Taizu actually felt that he would feel more at ease to hand over this teaching group to He Zhengdao. Therefore, Mr. Mao quickly recognized Mr. Zhu's words.

He Zhengdao did not refuse this and said directly: "Since both leaders think I am suitable, I will not refuse. Before the Spring Festival, I will put up the teaching team's airs, and the teachers also ask the central government and headquarters for help.

For the first phase of the student, we should choose from our ten main divisions first. If there are extra quotas, we will give priority to the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army grassroots officers who join our army. What do the two leaders think?”

‘Yes! You can write a detailed plan for the establishment of the teaching team at that time, and I will discuss with the Standing Committee members. As for personnel selection, let the Eighth Route Army Headquarters be fully responsible!’

‘Okay! I will release this order to the entire army when I go back to Xi'an. I believe that those main division commanders will be very happy to hear this news. If you can study with you for three months, those students will also feel that they will benefit a lot.’

In fact, He Zhengdao is also willing to accept the team leader and instructor who serves as part-time instructors. After all, with the identity of this team leader and instructor, he will have a teacher-student relationship with these battalion company commanders in the future.
