Chapter 57: The Problem of Recruits and Commissars
Unlike the chairman's anger, Wang Mingyu had no time to be angry. The war was about to break out, but Wang Mingyu did not have a truly decent soldier in his hands, which undoubtedly brought Wang Mingyu great depression.
If a general has no soldiers under his command, is this general still called him a general? What is the main purpose of Wang Mingyu's return to China this time? It is to resist the invasion of American imperialism and its lackeys.
But what does he have now? He has nothing. He originally thought that relying on tens of thousands of soldiers could resist for a long time and even had unexpected results, but he did not expect that the final outcome would be like this.
There are anger, emotion, helplessness! All kinds of emotions are circling in Wang Mingyu's mind. The most urgent task now is to select new recruits. Wang Mingyu knows that if you want a truly good soldier, you must start with new recruits.
Originally, Wang Mingyu was able to do as much as he could. After all, these veterans had all been on the battlefield, but now it seems that this is completely Wang Mingyu's own wishful thinking.
Wang Mingyu now regrets, regrets why he didn't recruit a group of new recruits at the beginning. If the old and new could combine, this would not happen in the end. Wang Mingyu knew that it was too late to regret now, but it was not as much as despair.
It is Wang Mingyu's principle to never give up.
In the 18th Army conference room, the officers looked solemn. What could they feel from Wang Mingyu's anxious words? It seems that war is not impossible, but should be fought soon.
What is the basis for these people's trust in Wang Mingyu? Of course, it is based on Wang Mingyu's judgment that has basically not made any mistakes over the years. What is the only military spirit of the 18th Army? It is Wang Mingyu. It can be said that Wang Mingyu is gone. I don't know what the 18th Army will eventually be like, but everyone knows that without Wang Mingyu and others will be nothing at all!
Wang Mingyu is the soul of this army. With him, everything is better! Without him, it is obviously worse than expected.
Wang Mingyu said in a deep voice: "Everyone, although the recruitment plan for recruitment is underway, the effect is obviously not very good! Why is this? Obviously, it is in the stage of construction of New China, and we are on the border here, and the situation is extremely complicated! What we have to do now is to seize the time to recruit and train these recruits in the shortest time!"
Wu Peilin said: "I have been responsible for recruiting new recruits. Let me summarize. In fact, the treatment we proposed is already very generous, and even their families have considered it! But there is a flaw here, that is, the population in this area is relatively sparse, and we are currently rushing to spread the recruitment scope!"
Sun Dabao said: "However, the quality of the soldiers in this area is still very good. The 6,000 soldiers recruited are basically good. With this as a guarantee, we can quickly form combat effectiveness!"
Zhao Guorui thought for a while and said, "Commander, I think since we are so anxious now, we can divide these soldiers into four batches for training, and then the new recruits come in, and we can form an echelon training. In this way, even if there is really a war at that time, we can still go into battle in batches!"
Wang Mingyu smiled and said, "Guorui's suggestion is pretty good. We recruit and train. Winter is coming soon. We must do all kinds of warming measures! But everyone should remember that if a war breaks out, it is impossible to really keep warm. Therefore, resisting severe cold is also one of the subjects we must train, so the recruits must keep up with their food, otherwise our bodies will not be able to bear it."
Zhang Deen said: "Commander, weren't there more than 10,000 people left last time? I think it's a pity to give up. None of them left under such circumstances, which shows that their personality is a bit at ease. I think we can transform this group of people. Under the current conditions, we have the only way!"
Wang Mingyu thought for a while and said, "Yeah, there is no problem, but I think that more than 10,000 people will be trained by Li Xianyu? Li Xianyu once worked in the Yimeng Anti-Japanese Base Area of the Communist Party of China. He should have no problems or obstacles when communicating with these people! In addition, if these soldiers say something messy, Li Xianyu can completely suppress the scene!"
Li Xianyu said: "Please rest assured that the commander is to complete the task. My principle is to either train or get out! Our 18th Army will never raise idle food. Since we can give them food equipment that other troops do not have, they should pay for our 18th Army! If the soldiers encounter a little difficulty, they will retreat, and they think they are not considered soldiers!"
Wang Mingyu said: "When it comes to this mutiny, we also have some responsibility!"
Wu Peilin said unconvincedly: "What are our responsibilities? We used to train like this, and the training was even more ruthless than this. I think this group of people can't stand it because it's entirely because of their own reasons!"
Wang Mingyu shook his head and said, "It's not the case. Let's put it this way. In fact, why did these people mutinate with a few people? The most important thing is that our ideological work is not done well! Don't underestimate this ideological work. In fact, ideological work can be invincible in many cases!"
Zhao Guorui nodded and said, "I remember when we were in the National Army, we were actually just for a meal at that time. So when we provided so many resources, others thought that such things were hard-earned! But now it is different. First of all, we do not have an imaginary enemy or enemy! This is very fatal. Everyone doesn't know why such arduous training is for? I don't know why they have to train more arduously after victory than during the war. Once people can't figure it out, they will go to extremes!"
Wang Mingyu said: "The ideological work of the CCP is actually very powerful. Why can the CCP win the world? Because their ideological propaganda work is very outstanding and conforms to public opinion, we also need this in this regard! I decided that from today on, we will set up a special position, that is, the political commissar!"
"Political Commissar? Commander, this is actually something that every CCP army has, so we can copy it as well?"
Wang Mingyu smiled and said, "It's not that we can copy it, but that we really need him! New recruits need to firm their thoughts, and veterans actually need it too. In training and life, the main task of the political commissar is to be responsible for the work in thought, life, etc.! This work can be said to be very complicated and requires meticulousness, so I say that you are basically not suitable to be political commissars!"
Sun Dabao smiled and said, "That's right, commander, we are all used to fighting wars. If you really want us to endorse them every day, I'm afraid I'll be crazy long ago!"
Wu Peilin also said: "That's the commander, if you ask us Zhang Fei to embroider, we won't be able to do it well!"
Wang Mingchuan said: "Anyway, I don't serve as the political commissar. If anyone wants to serve as the one, I will be responsible for leading troops to fight!"
The rest of the people also nodded, and they would definitely not do it if they asked them to be the political commissar of the rude facto political commissar. This time they had an extremely determined attitude, which was so resolute that Wang Mingyu was a little helpless.
Wang Mingyu sighed and said, "Okay, but the position of this political commissar must be needed. If you don't want to be, I can only ask the superior department to get some for us!"
Wu Peilin smiled [31 Novel Network Updated Fast] said with a hint: "Captain, can you get some lesbians? It's better to be unmarried lesbians. We don't have to train together with men and women!"
Wang Mingyu laughed and said, "What? I miss my wife? I can really consider this question, but don't have too much hope. Luo Yumin is an example! We should focus on being stable! Only when we are stable can we better build our team! Only by better increasing our strength!"
Wu Peilin said: "As long as the commander can get it for us, I promise to return the commander's army that keeps screaming!"
Wang Mingyu raised his eyebrows and said, "If I don't let you do what you mean, you won't let me create a screaming army?"
Everyone was laughing, and Wu Peilin scratched his head embarrassedly! Obviously, that's not what he meant!
The 18th Army's military construction has been ongoing. This time, it can be said that it has been back, so time is a bit urgent in all aspects. However, the political commissar's matter was obviously considered by Wang Mingyu.
When you reach a new environment, you must be able to adapt to the new environment! Otherwise, you will be eliminated by this society!
However, Wang Mingyu also knew that the person who came was not good, or who was randomly involved in military affairs, would definitely not work. Otherwise, the second and third Luo Yumin appeared at that time, which would be a huge blow to the morale of the entire 18th Army.
It is necessary to separate military and political affairs, and it is the same in the army. The political commissar must separate from those who lead troops to fight. If you have any opinions, you must submit them, but in the end, you must obey those who lead troops to fight.
Of course, it is not absolute. For example, in life, you must obey the political commissar, otherwise you will not want to ask others to be angry. Wang Mingyu thought so much, in fact, just one thing, that is, the entire army cannot be in chaos!
The central government was discussing this incident, and Wang Mingyu directly called the chairman's office. Speaking of which, Wang Mingyu wanted to call the mutiny, but later he thought about it and sent a telegram.
Now Wang Mingyu must have a little communication with the Chairman, otherwise if something really happens, it will be more than worth the loss!
"Hello, Chairman, I am Mingyu!" After taking the staff to hand the phone to the Chairman, Wang Mingyu said with a smile. Wang Mingyu was relaxed when talking to the Chairman.
"Mingyu, what happened last time? There is no problem with the military, right?" the chairman asked.
"The last incident of the Chairman did not satisfy my men, especially Luo Yumin. You know, she had a very good relationship with our 18th Army, so..." Wang Mingyu said helplessly.
"We have read all the materials Luo Yumin gave us, it's like playing the piano randomly! I tell you Mingyu, please rest assured. The central government is working hard on Luo Yumin's punishment decision. Anyway, he must be expelled from the party!" The chairman said in a cold tone.
"Thank you for your trust, on behalf of the entire 18th Army, I would like to thank the Chairman for your trust!" Wang Mingyu heard the Chairman say this, and knew that Luo Yumin's arrival was not the intention of the Central Committee, but someone deliberately did it!
The Chairman changed his subject and just let Wang Mingyu know this: "Is it because of this matter that I called today? If so, I can tell you with confidence that your 18th Army is a team I absolutely trust!"
Wang Mingyu said: "Thank you, Chairman. Although it has something to do with this matter today, it does not matter much! This mutiny in the army made me feel a little crisis. I think I have a certain responsibility for this mutiny, that is, there was no political commissar during the military construction!"
The Chairman said: "You are not appointed as a political commissar? Haha, no wonder. Speaking of which, the political commissar is still a position that can solve the problems of the army. At least in our Communist Party of China, the political commissar has a high status!"
Wang Mingyu said: "Chairman, I know, so now I have decided to learn from my mistakes and want the Chairman to support a group of comrades with political work experience! You also know that my men can do nothing but fight!"
The chairman laughed and said, "I am very happy that you have such awareness. This problem is definitely not a problem. Our party has never lacked such comrades! If you have any requirements, I will try to open the door to your 18th Army!"
The Chairman completely relieved when he heard Wang Mingyu's request. If Wang Mingyu really had a second thought, he would never let the people here interfere in his army. Now that he has taken the initiative, he obviously has never had any other thoughts.
Wang Mingyu smiled and said, "I didn't have any conditions at all, but my subordinates shouted that men and women were not tired of training. I just asked the chairman for some female political commissars. I also knew that this request was really ridiculous!"
The chairman smiled and said, "What's ridiculous? I don't think it's ridiculous at all. It's human nature to marry a man when he is old. These people under you have made outstanding contributions to the cause of the Anti-Japanese War and are heroes of our Chinese nation. Now they just want to be a family, and this little requirement is not an exaggeration!"
