Chapter 57: To Yan'an

It was August 1st soon, and the headquarters sent a telegram, all cadres above the military advisors came to Yan'an to study and hold a meeting, and at the same time celebrated the August 1st Army Day.

You can go to Yan'an, the revolutionary holy land, and meet the great men such as the chairman, the prime minister and other long-awaited people. Zhang Yunfei was very excited to think about it...

Yan'an is currently the seat of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region Government, and is the political, economic, cultural and military center of northern Shaanxi. Yan'an is located between the three mountains of Baota Mountain, Qingliang Mountain, and Fenghuang Mountain, and the intersection of Yanhe River and Fenchuan River. It is a place that military strategists must fight for. It is known as the "throat of the throat" and "a military center". It is known as the "locking key of the Three Qins and the throat of the Five Roads".

Since I am about to go to Yan'an, I still have to make some preparations. The journey to Yan'an is hundreds of kilometers, so it is definitely not OK to walk. Zhang Yunfei is preparing to drive a car.

At present, the entire Datong base is basically connected with the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia base. Do not cross the occupied areas and the Guo-Terminal District. From Datong to Yan'an, there are roads connected. Although the road conditions are not very good, they are always faster than riding a horse.

What's more, Zhang Yunfei is preparing to send some gifts to Yan'an this time, and he also needs truck transportation.

Zhang Yunfei had already thought about what to send. Although the material foundation of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region is still very weak, it is much better than a year or two ago. Although the life of the army is hard, it can still be almost half full.

At present, the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region is most short of weapons and ammunition. According to Zhang Yunfei's understanding, although the Eighth Route Army units have developed very quickly, they still have serious shortage of weapons and ammunition. Many infantry squads have 12 soldiers, only three or five rifles, and the rest of the soldiers are holding big knives and spears.

The main force of the Eighth Route Army may be better. Basically, every soldier has a rifle, but there are basically very few ammunitions, and each soldier only has a dozen or twenty bullets. These bullets are usually carried with you like treasures, and they are reluctant to fight during training. They are only used during wars, which is worse than their own militia units.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Yunfei was preparing to go to Yan'an this time, bringing a batch of weapons and ammunition. In the last battle, he annihilated so many Japanese soldiers and seized a large amount of Japanese equipment.

Zhang Yunfei may not look down on these equipment, but other brothers will definitely regard it as a treasure.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yunfei quickly asked the correspondent to notify the political commissar and deputy division commander Liu Dazhu to come to the command center.

Not long after, the two of them came to the command center one after another. Seeing that the two were coming, Zhang Yunfei said to the political commissar Fang Zheng: "Political Commissar, how much Japanese equipment does our arsenal have in it?"

"Our arsenal also has more than 24,000 Type 38 rifles, more than 800 crooked machine guns, more than 200 Type 92 heavy machine guns, more than 200 mortars, more than 100 920 infantry cannons, more than 3 million Japanese 6.5mm bullets, and more than 50,000 various shells."

"Okay, it seems that we have a lot of inventory? We don't use these things very much anyway. This time I go to Yan'an and plan to bring some to my brothers."

"Okay, I agree, it's not easy for brothers. Those who lack guns and bullets are just like last year, and they are so poor that they are so poor." Deputy Division Commander Liu Dazhu said.

"Yes, we can be self-sufficient now, and it's time to help our brothers' troops." Political Commissar Fang Zheng said with emotion.

"Since everyone has no objection, I will be the leader this time. This time I bring 10,000 Type 38 rifles, 500 crooked machine guns, 200 Type 92 heavy machine guns, 200 Sixty mortars, 100 Ninety infantry cannons, and 2 million bullets and 50,000 shells."

"Teacher, I guess it takes dozens of trucks to load up so many things." Liu Dazhu said worriedly.

"Don't we have more than 100 trucks? We draw a hundred trucks to transport these things, ask the soldiers to check the condition of the car, fill up the fuel, load the truck this afternoon, and set off at 7 a.m. tomorrow."

"Okay, please rest assured, the teacher, I will make arrangements." Political Commissar Fang Zhengdao.

"Oh, in addition, we seized a large amount of gold and silver when we beat the rich landlords. These gold and silver have been enough for us for more than a year. In this way, we will allocate another 100,000 oceans and send them to Yan'an together."

The next day, at seven o'clock in the morning, just as dawn, Zhang Yunfei arrived at the command center. Political commissar Fang Zheng and deputy division commander Liu Dazhu had already been waiting there.

Zhang Yunfei looked at the political commissar Fang Zheng and said seriously: "It will take ten days and half a month to go to Yan'an this time. When I am away, I must do a good job in the industrial construction of our base, especially the construction of automobile factories and armored vehicle factories. I must not relax at all. For those Japanese coolies, you must not be rude and show their greatest value. It doesn't matter if you exhaust a few Japanese to death."

"Don't worry, the division commander, I will definitely do a good job in the construction of the base area." Political Commissar Fang Zheng promised.

"Okay, I'll feel relieved with you." Zhang Yunfei said with relief.

Then Zhang Yunfei said to Liu Dazhu: "Dazhu, we have taken a bit of a big step this time to expand our army, but there is nothing we can do about it. They are all forced by the Japanese, and time doesn't wait for anyone.

This time we have recruited so many new recruits. We must do a good job in the training and strictly follow the training outline I wrote. We must remember to sweat more during training so that we can bleed less on the battlefield."

"I must remember the words of the division commander and resolutely complete the troops training tasks. When the division commander comes back, he will definitely see a heroic army." Liu Dazhu patted his chest and said.

"Okay, okay, then I'll be relieved. I'll leave. Take care of yourself and contact the radio station if you have any questions."

After Zhang Yunfei briefly explained some other matters, he joined the jeep that had been prepared by the command center.

Seeing that the division commander got into the car, the soldier in charge immediately started the car and drove towards the west gate of the city. There, the convoy was ready and could set off immediately just by waiting for Zhang Yunfei to arrive.

One hundred cars lined up in a long queue, eighty cars were filled with weapons and ammunition, and another twenty cars were filled with soldiers. This time they were accompanied by the first battalion of the Division Guard Regiment and six special forces members, and the soldiers in a transport company were responsible for transporting.

As soon as Zhang Yunfei arrived, everyone began to set off along a loess highway leading to Yan'an. More than 100 cars lined up in a long queue and slowly meandered along the highway, which was very spectacular.

Zhang Yunfei's little jeep was driving in the front, and the convoy behind followed closely, raising a large area of ​​dust.

Since the distance is several hundred kilometers and the time is abundant, Zhang Yunfei did not ask the troops to go urgently, but instead controlled the speed to about thirty or forty kilometers per hour.

In the evening, the convoy arrived in Yulin City. After a short rest in Yulin City that night, the convoy continued to set off the next morning and arrived in Yan'an at noon the next day.

Seeing Yan'an looking at him, Zhang Yunfei was also very happy. The long journey was finally completed and he finally arrived in Yan'an smoothly.

There was wind, sand and dust all the way. The road to the northwest is really difficult to walk, and the road conditions are poor, so I was almost broken by the bumps.
