Chapter 327: Three Messages (Second Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
On the morning of August 23, north of Ruijin City, the Angjiao Mountain blocked the position. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Hundreds of fiery red party and military flags were planted from the foot of the angular mountain to a high post one kilometer to the west, and more than 2,000 local young men and more than 1,800 Red Guards organized by the Ruijin local party committee threw themselves into the construction of fortifications and trenches with the sound of trumpets and sweat like rain.
More than 450 officers and men of the engineer battalion directly under the front-line headquarters also took off their uniforms and caps at this time, and scattered inside and outside the trenches and fortifications to guide more than 4,000 young and strong men.
The staff officers of the division headquarters who taught the 1st Division took measuring tools and tape measures, and constantly measured and judged the quality of each construction site.
Zheng Yi accompanied Han Shouren and two political officers of the Red Fourth Army to inspect the circle, and came to the top of the command post more than 200 meters behind the side of the position, where they watched the construction scene with the battle flags fluttering and the dust and smoke flying, and talked happily in a low voice.
"This was an eye-opener! I had never seen such a complex defensive position, three trenches and interconnected communication trenches, extending in all directions, more regular than the foundations of a large house, and there were solid anti-artillery points every fifteen meters, and the high and low fire points were not only solid, but also very hidden......"
"Tsk! I dare to assert that the enemy will not be able to conquer our position even if he dispatches a single division, and he will definitely not be able to defeat it unless he has dozens of 75 field artillery pieces to continuously bombard! ”
The older political officer sighed.
Han Shouren saw that Zheng Yi just smiled and didn't say anything, so he had to come forward and give some guidance to the two young officers:
"The trenches are only one of the aspects, the choice of position is the most important...... If you look ahead, the official road that runs north from the middle of the first trench has a slight slope, and if the enemy were to charge, it would be from the bottom to the top, not to mention, and it would be completely suppressed by fire from above. ”
In addition, this 800-meter-long official road is lined with hills, which seems to be extremely ordinary, but in fact, it is full of thorns, and the three hills on the west side are all stone mountains with sections, and there is basically no way to go...... The eastern part of the hill is not steep enough to be used for marching and horsebacking, but it is not covered by large trees and large rocks, and once a fight is fought, it can be completely covered by light and heavy machine guns erected on both sides of the defensive position. ”
"The most important thing is that within three kilometers to the north of this official road, there are all undulating hills, and the road also curves with the mountain, extending all the way to the north, and there is no place to set up artillery, but it is always within the attack of the mortar position behind the side of the defensive position."
"Everything within a radius of ten kilometers is like this, there is no path to go around the side and rear of the defensive position, this is the most subtle thing about this blocking position!"
The two young officers looked at each other, smiled embarrassedly, changed their attitude of aloud evaluation just now, and asked Han Shouren and Zheng Yi for advice very humbly.
Zheng Yi also answered patiently, and Zheng Yi did not take the trouble to give examples of what the two did not understand for a while.
"Report! The second regiment is urgent. ”
The communications staff officer, who rushed to the high post and was slightly panting, handed over the telegram with both hands.
Zheng Yi took it and looked at it, and handed it to Han Shouren casually: "Let's stop here today, return to the headquarters immediately, the transport fleet of the Third Army of the Yunnan Army is about to enter the ambush section of the Second Regiment, so it can be judged that Wang Jun's Third Army will not besiege the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base with other Kuomintang troops." ”
Han Shouren hurriedly read the telegram, ordered the two political officers to go together, and trotted all the way down behind Zheng Yi. When they reached the bottom of the mountain, the group immediately turned over their horses and quickly rushed back to the headquarters in Ruijin City.
……
……
Around the sand table in the center of the conference room of the headquarters, there were staff officers of various sections.
Zhao Jingting, deputy commander of the 1st Division, and Zhang Yao, chief of staff, stood in front of the large map on the east side, and discussed in a low voice.
"You're back just in time...... The 41st intelligence officer sent information at 11:40 that Jin Handing personally led a division and followed the Third Army to the south, and the destination was Suichuan County, southwest of Wan'an! ”
Zheng Yi was slightly surprised, strode to the sand table to take a closer look, then turned around and came to Zhao Jingting and Zhang Yao, snatched the red and blue pencils in Zhang Yao's hands, and while informing the two of them of the information sent by the No. 41 intelligence officer, he drew a red blocking line in Suichuan County on the map.
Zhang Yao and Zhao Jingting suddenly became nervous.
Zhao Jingting pointed to Suichuan County and said: "It seems that a division of Jin Handing is not just blocking the retreat of Jinggang Mountain, it is very likely that it will attack Ciping in the hinterland of Jinggang Mountain from the Wudou River in the west of the county seat. ”
"Ciping is not so easy to attack, and the Bijiashan Fortress, which is located ten kilometers southeast of Ciping, is not so easy to fight, and I think Jin Handing's purpose is to block the eastern passage of the Jinggangshan base area." Zhang Yao expressed a different opinion.
Han Shouren couldn't be sure for a while, and the two young political officers seemed to have lost their minds, and looked at Zheng Yi in unison, hoping to hear Zheng Yi's judgment.
Zheng Yi did not disappoint them: "I am inclined to the opinion of the chief of staff...... The stretch from Suichuan to Wudoujiang is not long in a straight line, but it can be walked for at least 50 kilometers, and the road is full of steep mountain roads, the roads are extremely narrow and winding, and in some places only a few large stones need to be rolled down from the mountainside, so that the enemy troops who have nowhere to hide can not eat and walk. ”
"With Jin Handing's shrewdness, he will not be unaware of the difficulties and dangers of this road, so I don't think he will lead his troops to go deep into such a complex and unfamiliar area, his purpose is to block the retreat route to the east of the Jinggangshan base area, deter the military and civilians in our base area, and cooperate with the Eighth Army of the Hunan Army in the south and the garrison division of the Yunnan Army in the north to carry out a flanking attack on the hinterland of Jinggangshan."
Zhang Yao showed a knowing smile, Zhao Jingting also nodded frequently, and after listening to Zheng Yi's analysis, Han Shouren and the two political officers finally put their minds at ease.
Zheng Yi was very decisive and directly ordered Zhang Yunrui: "Draft three telegrams." ”
"Yes!"
Zhang Yunrui immediately opened the folder.
Zheng Yi stared at the map and dictated unhurriedly: "The first is a report on the battle situation, which was sent to the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base Area: Commander of the Red Fourth Army, Commissar Mao, and Commander Zhu: A division of the Ninth Army of Jin Handing is rapidly heading south to Suichuan, and it is preliminarily judged that the purpose of the division is twofold, one is to block the passage of Jinggangshan Mountain, and the other is to reinforce Wang Jun's Third Army at any time to launch an attack on our Xingguo base area and Yudu and Ningdu, in order to contain the enemy's strength and disrupt the enemy's deployment, teach the first division and one regiment to quickly go north and attack Yongfeng and Le'an counties!" Teach the first division commander, Zheng Yi. ”
Zhang Yunrui quickly wrote down Zheng Yi's words, turned the blank page and waited silently.
Zheng Yi continued: "The second is a telegram order, sent to Huang Guoxing, the commander of the second regiment: after attacking the enemy's fleet, leave two special detachments to closely monitor the enemy's reaction, and the rest of the officers and men will withdraw to Xingguo to fully assist the Xingguo County Party Committee to carry out war mobilization!" ”
"The third telegram was sent to Tian Antai, the head of the first regiment: Authorizing your ministry to act at the right of opportunity, you must take the two county towns of Yongfeng and Le'an within three days. If necessary, you can lead the troops left behind in Donghua Mountain to participate in the battle! Zheng Yi. ”
