| After the Japanese surrender in August 1945,the Communist Party of China-led forces of the Ji Re-Liao Military Region quickly liberated the entire province of Jehol,restored the establishment of Jehol Province,and established the Jehol Liberation Zone.Yet the Kuomintang,which had never sent a single soldier to Jehol,which had fallen for twelve years,was at this time vainly attempting to re-establish dictatorial rule in Jehol in order to realize its plan to control the northeast.As a result,the Party,government,military and people in the Jehol Liberation Area launched a more intense and complex struggle to consolidate and expand the liberated areas.The Jehol Liberation Zone under the leadership of the Communist Party of China followed the military situation and the Party’s strategic policy,and mobilized and organized all the armed forces of Jehol-the regular army,the local army,and the militia self-defense units-to fight against the stubborn and the false.Among them,the development of the people’s armed forces not separated from production with the militia as the core and the self-defense forces as the indirect force as an important force in the three-integrated armed system in Jehol was of great significance in reducing the number of regular troops,reducing the people’s burden and enhancing social security at the grassroots level,and had an irreplaceable role in achieving victory in the War of Liberation.Therefore,the Jehol People’s Armed Forces during the Liberation War,with the attention and help of the Jehol Party,Government and Army,developed and grew rapidly and made important contributions to the liberation of Jehol and the defense of the democratic regime.Based on the collection of a large number of historical archives,this paper first introduces the historical background of the creation of the Jehol People’s Armed Forces,sorts out its development history and divides its development stages by studying literature,analyzing and summarizing experience.Secondly,based on archival materials,we present the details of the construction of the People’s Armed Forces by the party and government departments of Jehol mainly from three aspects: the construction of organizational teams,the construction of ideological and political quality and the construction of combat readiness,restore the construction process,and show the efforts made by the party and government departments of Jehol in its construction as far as possible.Again,the article looks at the construction achievements of the People’s Armed Forces,presenting their military activities,their activities in maintaining social security,and their involvement in production and maintaining order in economic construction during this period,in an attempt to show their active role in all aspects of Jehol.Finally,the historical role of the Jehol People’s Armed Forces is summarized,and its working experience is summarized through various aspects of its construction process and activity situation.In the Jehol Liberation Zone under the leadership of the Communist Party of China during the Liberation War,the widespread establishment and construction of people’s armed organizations enabled the people of Jehol to participate extensively in war mobilization,economic production,and maintenance of local law and order,thus giving full play to the great power of the people and demonstrating the two-way role of linking the government and the people,which is difficult to be achieved by other armed forces.It strengthened the armed forces of the liberated areas,reduced the financial burden of Jehol and the burden of the people,maintained the stability of rural society,and contributed to the liberation of Northeast China and Pingjin by the people of Jehol.In the new era and new situation,the effort to present the whole picture of the People’s Armed Forces of Jehol from a historical perspective,to find out the reasons for its development,to analyze its impact and to analyze the historical experience left behind,not only helps to further explore the historical value of the People’s Armed Forces and enrich such academic research,but also has important practical significance for the work and development of the People’s Armed Forces nowadays. |
