Chapter 282: Sincere Heart (Part 1)

"Lose that mother, that's it?"

"His mother, it's really sharp! After walking for more than 30 miles, there is no chaos at all......"

"I remember they didn't drink water all the way. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Weird! When they went out of the city, their regimental commanders and battalion commanders had been leading their horses on the march, and now they were leading their horses back on foot, and it seemed that they had no intention of getting on the horses. ”

"If you don't ride a horse, are they officers?"

"Have you forgotten what the other few Communist Party deputies said? The Communist Party stresses equality between officers and soldiers. ”

Among the more than 900 Cantonese officers and men, the more they talked, the more frightened they became, and in the end, most of them couldn't help but stretch their necks and look at the neat backs of the instructor's officers and men as they traveled farther and farther away.

Li Linran, the tall and thin negotiator of the Guangdong Army and the former weapons instructor of the Whampoa Military Academy, was even more emotional: "Have you noticed it? All of them carried a large bag on their backs, and on the front and rear belts hung two square leather bullet pouches and four grenades, which added up to at least thirty pounds, and if you added seven and a half pounds of thirty-eight rifles, it would be almost forty pounds......"

"This kind of marching ability is thought-provoking!"

Only then did Deputy Director Chen of the Political Department of the Eighth Route Army under Li Jishen realize the seriousness of the problem, and hurriedly followed the gaze of his companions to look at the instructor officers and soldiers who walked out a kilometer away, and said incredulously: "Lose her mother, this is too strong, right?" ”

Li Jishen's nephew no longer had the slightest color on his face, stared blankly at the instructor officers and soldiers who were far away, and said in a low voice: "I walked here from Ruijin for four hours, at least eighteen kilometers, the sun is so big, we nine hundred brothers have been recuperating for many days, and now we can't stand the march with our bare hands......"

"On the other hand, the communist army returned the same way after resting for less than three minutes, and the speed was still so fast, it was really terrible to think about it carefully, it seems that it is not unjust to lose to them!"

Li Linran's expression was complicated, and he was full of emotion: "As early as during the Whampoa Military Academy, I had seen Zheng Yi's ability......"

"Before the Northern Expedition, Lao Jiang's First Army held a military training exercise, Ren Gong led more than a dozen generals and colonels of our Fourth Army to be invited to observe, and finally the garrison battalion of the Quartermaster Department led by Zheng Yi overwhelmed the two main divisions of the First Army, and stood out among the twenty-seven infantry battalions participating in the exercise, and won the first place in the comprehensive evaluation!"

"At that time, I felt that Zheng Yi had a set of military training, and Ren Gong, Zhang Fakui, and Huang Qixiang were also very surprised, and they were full of praise for Zheng Yi's training level."

"After that, Zheng Yi rose step by step, and obtained the rank of major general during his tenure as a station supervisor at the Wuhan Military Station, and then suddenly the news came that he led his troops to join the Communist Party, alas!"

"Ren Gong knew that I had a good relationship with Zheng Yi when I was in the military academy, and before coming to Gannan, he called me to tell me repeatedly, let me have a good talk with Zheng Yi, and told me that it was a pity for such an outstanding talent to join the Communist Party, if he was willing to get lost, he could go to our Eighth Route Army to be a division commander, and even let him serve as the deputy commander of the Fourth Army, and then take over the post of army commander in the future."

"However, Zheng Yi doesn't want to see me at all, and I don't know what will happen in the future."

Li Jishen's nephew was stunned, he didn't know that his uncle actually valued Zheng Yi so much, but recalling that the newly formed Third Division of the Guangdong Army had almost no power to fight back under the attack of the communist instructor, he knew that with Zheng Yi's ability, it was more than enough to serve as the commander of the newly formed Fourth Army, and he couldn't help but sigh for a while.

……

……

When the officers and men of Guangdong were sighing continuously, Zheng Yi and his entourage had already ridden into Tingzhou City, and the enthusiastic Committee member Mao proposed not to go to the Chenghuang Temple in the north of the city for the time being, but to go into the county seat for a walk first.

Zheng Yi and Li Zhao readily agreed, and ordered the guard company commander to lead the team back to the City God Temple, with only one squad of guards to accompany them.

The city was in order, and the people who came and went were not afraid to see Zheng Yi and his party in military attire, and many pedestrians and shop owners nodded to Commissar Mao and Zheng Yi and others who were walking in front with a smile, and they still did what they should do when they were finished.

Commissar Mao was very satisfied with the stable and peaceful atmosphere, and when he was about to reach the crossroads, he stopped, pointed to the two soldiers standing at the intersection of the street in full armor, and turned his head to ask Zheng Yi: "You have been maintaining martial law?" ”

Zheng Yi replied in a low voice: "Yes, on the third day after we captured Tingzhou, we quickly convened a trial meeting of 10,000 people, shot and killed more than 40 local tyrants, shoddy gentry and bullies, and eradicated the biggest hidden danger in the local area in one fell swoop by means of cutting through the chaos with a quick knife. ”

"I originally thought that the situation would be quickly calmed down, but I didn't expect that only three days later, the caravan that brought us supplies was ambushed by bandits fifteen kilometers south of the city, although we reacted quickly and annihilated this gang of more than 300 people that evening, but the many hidden dangers caused by this have not been completely eliminated."

"So, in the face of the current complex situation, we continue to implement measures such as city-wide patrols, sentry posts at major intersections and curfews, which will remain unchanged until all hidden dangers are eliminated."

Commissar Mao nodded slightly, and before he reached the crossroads, the two soldiers standing guard had already turned around in unison and saluted.

After Zheng Yi returned the salute, he continued to accompany Commissar Mao to the east of the city, and then climbed the high city tower to overlook the whole city.

"Huh? What are you doing on the riverside in the south of the city? Committee member Mao pointed to the construction site where thousands of people were working two miles away, and Li Zhao and several other officials also looked over.

Zheng Yi explained with a smile: "There used to be a Tingjiang Academy there, which was washed away by a flood many years ago, but the general framework of the house is still there. ”

"In order to resettle homeless street children in and out of the city, and also to stimulate local economic development and let the people quickly settle down, we took out 5,000 yuan from the huge amount of money obtained from the house raid to rebuild Tingjiang Academy, and changed its name to Chengnan Primary School."

"Because the original foundation of the academy is good, it is estimated that this primary school will be completed by the end of the month, and it will be able to accommodate more than 100 street children and 300 poor children in the vicinity."

Commissar Mao agreed: "Well done! Remember the dozens of children we took in Yongxin City? Now they are all educated in the Ciping Primary School in Jinggangshan, they are very healthy, and the children are very smart, every time I go to visit them, they ask me why Uncle Zheng didn't come to see us. ”

"Especially the little girl you brought back, she is getting more and more beautiful and sensible, and she is looking forward to seeing you more than anyone else."

Zheng Yi laughed, sighed with emotion after laughing, thought about pulling Commissioner Mao up, and walked to the edge of the city wall more than ten meters away from Li Zhao and others: "I have an idea, I want you to help me consider whether it is appropriate." ”

Commissar Mao was quite surprised, withdrew his gaze from the construction site, and looked at Zheng Yi's eyes with a smile: "What is so mysterious?" ”

Zheng Yi finally said a big thing that had been hidden in his heart for a long time: "With the development and growth of our Red Army, its political influence and military strength will expand rapidly, and the Kuomintang authorities and reactionary forces in various localities will soon concentrate their forces against us, and our situation will become extremely difficult. ”

"In order to avoid the threat of the imminent White Terror, I would like to ask you to hand over to me the children on Jinggang Mountain, your three children and the children left in the hometown by your former comrades, and I will try my best to send the children to Hong Kong, otherwise I will not worry!"

"I plan to let my children receive a few years of basic education in Hong Kong first, and when they grow up, whether they go to the Soviet Union, Europe or the United States to study, or return to the base areas to join our revolutionary ranks."

Commissar Mao was stunned, looked at Zheng Yi fixedly for a while, and finally sighed faintly, and patted Zheng Yi's arm gratefully: "Thank you, Comrade Zheng Yi!" It's hard to think so much about you......"

"I will bring your suggestion back and convey it to the comrades at the meeting of the former enemy committee in the base area, and if the comrades agree, I will report to the Central Committee in the name of the former enemy committee for instructions and ask for the approval of the Central Committee."

"Now it seems that not only our Jinggangshan base area has such problems, but also in the Hunan and Jiangxi border areas, the Jiangxi-Fujian border areas, the Hubei-Anhui base areas, the Hunan-Hubei border areas, and other places, and the families of the central comrades in the KMT-ruled areas are even more dangerous......

"I think everybody will think about it carefully."

Zheng Yi nodded slightly, knowing that this matter was not in a hurry for a while, so he didn't say anything anymore.

Why didn't Commissioner Mao know that this was Zheng Yi's sincere heart? smiled at the moment, took Zheng Yi's hand and walked forward, and within a few steps, he saw Wang Huchen and Luo Huaisheng, who he was familiar with, and more than ten people hurriedly ascended the city tower.
