The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 1199 Learning to grow
...Under Kong Jie's strategy of deliberately knocking the mountain to shock the tiger, the anti-Japanese situation in North China became more and more stable.

The Japanese and puppet troops stationed in major counties and communication lines in North China were on tenterhooks all day long, always on guard against possible attacks by the Eighth Route Army troops.

Soon the Spring Festival will come again.

The base areas of the Eighth Route Army celebrated with joy. The soldiers who had been fighting on the front line and were mentally stressed out experienced a rare moment of relaxation and joy.

According to the wishes of the headquarters, during the Spring Festival, all base areas and units will have a big holiday. The cooking class will provide special meals so that the soldiers can eat several good meals during the New Year. In addition, more group competitions will be held to liven up the atmosphere.

Not to mention the large number of pigs raised in the base area, thousands of them were slaughtered.

Such a grand occasion was the first time this happened in the Anti-Japanese Revolutionary Base Area of ​​the Eighth Route Army since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War.

Unfortunately, some people are happy and some are sad. Compared with the celebration in the Eighth Route Army base area, on the other hand, the Japanese-occupied areas are gloomy and gloomy.

Faced with the news that the Eighth Route Army deliberately released "no war during the Spring Festival", the Japanese and puppet troops became more and more frightened.

Under the special request of Hata Junroku, Okabe and other old Japanese soldiers, the Japanese and puppet troops in the occupied areas did not even have a half-day holiday during the Spring Festival, and were all sent to various defense lines to guard against it.

As for the Japanese army taking advantage of the Spring Festival in the Eighth Route Army base area to launch active sweeps in winter and borrowing some courage from the little devils, today's devils no longer dare.

Under such a situation, Kong Jie was completely relieved. Soon after, he rushed to Yan'an to study in accordance with the central government's instructions. Of course, Li Yunlong and Ding Wei also went together.

When setting off, Lao Li made a fuss about taking a car and boasted that he must give the senior leaders a good look.

But Kong Jie said that he should keep a low profile. Just because the Iron Triangle Force has developed, he can't deliberately pull it out to show off to others, right?

Li Yunlong thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case, so he nodded and agreed.

So, on the day of departure... As soon as Li Yunlong appeared, he didn't know which street corner he found, and he didn't wear it for a long time. He was wearing an old military uniform from that time, in tatters, and it was patched everywhere, but even the holes were still there. Can't make it up.

Even the briefcase he carried on his back was deliberately replaced by a broken baggage.

The gun that comes with it has also been changed from the best Browning to the lowest-quality bastard box.

Kong Jie and Ding Wei were stunned by this outfit.

"I said, Lao Li, what are you doing here?" Kong Jie was speechless.

Li Yunlong said cheerfully: "Lao Kong, didn't you say we should keep a low profile? Our Iron Triangle is poor and our conditions are limited. At least it's not bad if we don't go to Yan'an to study with our buttocks naked.

After arriving in Yan'an, the old leaders and comrades asked, "Plane?"Ah, there is no plane!Tanks and artillery?Well, not at all, gun?There are some guns, but most of them are old sleeves with almost smooth rifling. Two people can't even carry one..."

"Stop, stop!" Kong Jie quickly stopped: "Old Li, you know Versailles!"

"What earplugs?"

"Ahem, it means those people who are obviously very rich, but pretend to be very poor, and still call themselves poor!" Kong Jie explained.

Hahaha--

Li Yunlong said happily: "That's right. We, Old Li, are just earplugs."

Then, as if he was talking about something sad, Lao Li sighed with emotion:

"It's all an old problem. There's nothing we can do about it. We all know what happened back then. We managed to pull out the team, get some equipment from the Japs on the front line, and do some side business. But when we turned around, we let the brigade commander know. The old brigade commander called me and said, yes, the seizure we managed to get can be reduced by more than half immediately.

Can that not be called poverty?

As the saying goes, it will feed the poor children. At least they can keep their capture from the old brigade commander, right? "

Kong Jie said helplessly: "Okay, Lao Li, I can't help you, so don't bother yourself and quickly change your clothes.

Don't we just want to take a car? Let's just drive there. But we agreed that taking a car would be too high-profile. Let's just drive a broken truck. It just so happens that there are many cadres going to Yan'an to study this time. Let's make this car bigger and pull it up in one car. "

"Haha, Lao Kong, that's right!" Li Yunlong immediately beamed.

After making up their mind, several people changed into ordinary military uniforms, then drove a broken truck, pulling cadres who were also preparing to go to Yan'an to study, and set off along the road to Yan'an.

The road was smooth and the traffic was not slow. We drove around and rested in some military areas.

It was not until the afternoon of the next day that Kong Jie and his party finally rushed to the military academy in Yan'an.

The person who came to greet him in person was the deputy education director of the college, Chen.

When the two sides met, Deputy Education Director Chen was filled with emotion: "Haha, Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, comrades, I have finally waited for you!"

Looking at the big boss in front of them, Kong Jie and others respectfully saluted the military salute.

"Director of Education!"

Deputy Education Chief Chen said happily: "No, no, Kong Jie, this time you come to Yan'an to study, not only as students, but also as teachers, giving good service to our students at Yan'an Military Academy Go to class.

Your performance on the front lines behind enemy lines in recent years has been brilliant.

He must have a lot of stories to tell, and he has accumulated rich combat experience. Since he is here this time, he can't hide his secrets! "

Kong Jie and the others responded respectfully.

Later, the three of them settled in Yan'an. They did not immediately enter the military academy to study. Instead, they took the lead in participating in the philosophy research conference and war research conference held by relevant leaders.

All the people attending the meeting were big bosses, and just a casual glance at someone would make the restless Li Yunlong calm down immediately.

Kong Jie upholds the principle of humility, listens more, sees more and learns more, talks less but does more.

Unexpectedly, Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei, who were supposed to be the most junior and least senior in the meeting, were then called by their leaders.

The leader specifically asked the three of them to express their opinions on their experiences and opinions on fighting on the front line.In fact, Lao Li couldn't hold back his temper for a long time. Since it was your leader who asked us to speak, I won't be polite. Then I used my experience in fighting on the front line over the years, especially commanding mechanized combat troops and armored forces. Let’s talk about our experiences.

Ding Wei also elaborated on his views on maneuvering troops to conduct roundabout operations behind enemy lines.

Finally, there is the ground-air dynamic coordination tactic proposed by Kong Jie.

This was refreshing to everyone at the meeting. Everyone had heard of this ground-air coordination tactic.

Can it be called ground-air dynamic cooperation tactics?

It turned out that during the battle against the illegally built 14th Division of the Kwantung Army around Datong and Zhangjiakou, Kong Jie, as the commander of the Eighth Route Army's aviation unit, conducted special military experiments and tested the tactics of dynamic ground-air cooperation.

——The ultra-long-standby seaplane served as a communication relay and reconnaissance, and played a big role in launching the attack on the most elite division guard wing of the Japanese 14th Division.

During the dynamic advancement of the main attack force, the communication system can be used to call for support from ground attack aircraft or bombers carrying different ammunition according to different terrain types.

Aerial reconnaissance aircraft also dynamically report the advancement of the front and the hidden enemy firepower to ground force commanders, making it easier for ground commanders to call for artillery support or tank support.

"...In short, it is different from the traditional coordination tactics of arms, but dynamically combines infantry, aviation, artillery, and armor to strengthen joint operations of various arms and help break through the Japanese defense line. Not only does it reduce ammunition consumption, but also reduces casualties. Lowering it can also effectively attack the enemy's effective strength."

At that time, during the encirclement and annihilation of the 14th Division of the Kwantung Army.

Old Japanese Inoue probably never dreamed of the 120mm mortar position and the 99-type 105 mountain artillery position that he had always hidden, as well as the remaining half of the brigade's three-type mid-range battle.

He thought he was well hidden, but in fact he was under the Eighth Route Army's reconnaissance sight from beginning to end.

As a result, as soon as these troops appeared on the battlefield, they were immediately bombarded and air raided by the Eighth Route Army.

According to Kong Jie:
"The combat methods trained by the Japs, in the large field of infantry and artillery coordination, are basically static. They search for targets first, and then advance after all types of artillery have been blasted. During the advance, hidden firepower is discovered and they are basically dealt with by themselves and cannot be defeated. Only after retreating did they call for artillery fire.

The Japanese's method of coordinated operations was backward. Ultimately, it was due to the lack of communication equipment and the inability to effectively contact friendly forces.

From this perspective, our Iron Triangle Army was able to successfully defeat the Kwantung Army's [-]th Division this time, which also had a great advantage in communications.

As for the Japanese's air reinforcements, let alone them. Air support can only be called after approval at the brigade level. The attack can only be carried out after the planes arrive and drop bombs. If the forward squadron encounters an emergency, there will be no time to call for air reinforcements.

Even if there is time, we must first report to the group headquarters, and then the group headquarters will call the airport aviation team. The day lily is already cold.

Basically, the Japanese air force will not put precious fuel in the sky where the army is fighting and wait for a long time.

This is also an important reason why in the battles around Datong and Zhangjiakou, our Eighth Route Army was able to obtain comprehensive air supremacy with limited aviation power.

This static collaborative tactic of the Japs has great drawbacks, especially for the increasingly complex and rapidly changing battlefield, which is simply not enough! "

“And after we used the tactics of dynamic coordination.

Old Japanese Inoue's counterattack force was bombed as soon as heavy weapons appeared, and was bombed as soon as the reserve force was reinforced. Our elite combat engineer regiment and guard regiment strangled the Japanese troops while using firepower reinforcements to attack and block the advance path of the Japanese reserve force.

An assault team equipped with new equipment such as Type 42 submachine guns, pistols (54 pistols), anti-roll grenades, light machine guns, semi-automatic rifles (m1 improved), Type 42 semi-automatic shotguns, Type 42 heavy body armor and other new equipment were strangled. The last elite reserve team was defeated in this way.

Originally, this Japs reserve team was specially equipped with a large number of submachine guns and semi-automatic rifles in order to deal with our Iron Triangle troops. Even ordinary helmeted soldiers may not be able to take down this little Japs in hand-to-hand combat.

However, facing the attack of our experimental troops using dynamic coordination tactics, this elite Japanese army was quickly defeated.

This is enough to illustrate the usefulness of new equipment and dynamic coordination tactics.

Therefore, we should be proactive and reform in the military field, and strive to achieve dynamic coordinated operations. I think this will be the new direction of our military's future construction! "

Kong Jie's proposal received special attention from the leaders.

In the subsequent meeting discussions, Kong Jie used his long-term advantage and vision of standing on the shoulders of giants to propose some more advanced and long-term military development directions in advance.

Some of the directions were so advanced that many cadres were stunned for a moment.

Of course, Kong Jie changed the subject:
"These can be said to be the direction of our future military construction. But now, we still have to focus on how to defeat the Japanese army, strive for national independence, and build a new China!"

A cadre laughed and said: "Comrades, I don't know what you think, but I heard something extra in Comrade Kong Jie's words!
What does that mean?

In the eyes of Comrade Kong Jie, it seems that it is an inevitable event that we defeat the Japanese army and achieve great victory in this protracted war of resistance against Japan!
Why do you say that?

While we are still worrying about how to defeat the little devils, Comrade Kong Jie is already thinking about the direction of the construction and development of the army after the construction of our country! "

After finishing speaking, the cadres couldn't help laughing.

In the end, Kong Jie, Li Yunlong, and Ding Wei studied in Yan'an and stayed for nearly three months before returning to the base area in the early spring of the next year.

During this period, there were times of study, which included not only military studies but also political studies; there were also times when instructors were imparting frontline combat experience. Kong Jie and the others stood on the podium and spoke seriously about various military combat theories and ideas. .

In Li Yunlong's proud words: "It's so majestic! Hey, guess what we, Old Li, told Xiu Qin after we got back?"
As I said, our old Li was a rough man in the past because he had no conditions and no time to study. But now it is different. Our old Li is both civil and military.

Good guy, this is for my mother-in-law, her eyes are shining with stars, and she looks at me with eyes full of adoration! "

Kong Jie also laughed. It was obvious that Lao Li enjoyed his married life with Xiu Qin very much.

This is the truth. What man enjoys the most is not the worship of his own woman?
This is probably difficult for Tian Yu, who was with Li Yunlong according to his original trajectory, to bring it to Li Yunlong.

In addition, this was only the beginning of 43, and Lao Li was only in his early 30s, when he was still in his prime. The combination with Xiu Qin made his life extremely happy.

Speaking of Tian Yu, I'm sorry about the timeline. It seems that she will give up school and join the army until around [-] years and work in the army hospital. She can't find anyone yet.

Later, Li Yunlong was injured in the battle and was hospitalized. Tian Yu took care of Li Yunlong as a nurse. Li Yunlong was 37 or eight years old when they met. No wonder they have different emotional resonances...
