In the blink of an eye, the lively county hall quieted down, and Zheng Yi pulled Wang Huchen to sit down by the brazier and said the long-considered adjustment plan:

"I think the time is ripe for the regiments to be equipped with chiefs of staff and to form regimental and battalion-level staff groups, and the next step is to bring back a batch of radio stations and telephones as soon as possible for battlefield command and military mobilization, what is your opinion?"

Wang Huchen thought for a moment: "It's feasible!" We already have the conditions to move toward military regularization and system standardization, and there are no problems in any other respects except for the need to increase the number of radio stations and telephones.

"In the course of training and campaigning in the past six months, many outstanding grass-roots commanders have emerged in all main regiments, and in addition to the existing 75 staff officers at the division headquarters, they can fully meet the needs of establishing a staff officer system."

"After fighting this battle, I will immediately make a plan and come up with a preliminary list for discussion by the division party committee."

Zheng Yi was very relieved, among the many old brothers, only Wang Huchen could deeply understand the superiority of the modern military system and could support and assist him without reservation.

The other old brothers have not yet completed the change of concept, and many of them are still selfish and unwilling to separate the power in their hands, so Zheng Yi has not revealed his military innovation plan.

Until now, Zheng Yi felt that the time was ripe.

In order to cope with the grim situation in the future and fully mobilize the subjective initiative and creativity of the officers and men, Zheng Yi was determined not to delay the long-planned military innovation plan, and to take the lead in establishing a strict and standardized staff system in his army, optimizing the command system, and cultivating the analytical and decision-making ability of middle- and low-ranking officers.

Only in this way can we further enhance the combat effectiveness of the armed forces.

……

At two o'clock in the afternoon, a huge convoy consisting of 2,500 soldiers and civilians, 600 prisoners, and more than 230 wagons and ox carts slowly passed through the east gate of Ganxian County and rushed to Jiangkou Town, dozens of miles to the east, in the rain.

On the big wharf outside the south gate of Ganxian County, 13 wooden cargo ships loaded with grain and beans successively left the shore, and under the escort of more than 100 officers and men of the Second Regiment of the Second Regiment of the Instructor, Panasonic, they sailed upstream, with great difficulty, to the wharf of Jiangkou Town upstream.

As soon as the grain convoy left, Zhao Jingting, the commander of the second regiment, and Tao Zhuguo, the political commissar, commanded a company of brothers to escort the captured more than 240 officers and wounded of the Yunnan army to the wharf, and Tao Zhuguo announced the release order of the instructor, and then drove all the prisoners into more than ten small wooden boats and two large bamboo rafts more than ten meters long and five meters wide, and let them return to Ganzhou City downstream.

In the hall of the county government, more than 30 political cadres from the grassroots level lined up neatly, and with Zheng Yi's sentence of "beating children on rainy days, idleness is idleness", more than 30 political cadres burst out into laughter, and then saluted neatly and quickly returned to each regiment, leading 15 platoons of soldiers to go to all directions in the city to arrest and raid the homes of the Ganxian County Kuomintang and the bullies and inferior gentry who were extremely angry with the people.

……

……

On the tower of the towering and majestic Dongmen City in Ganxian County, Yang Chisheng, the chief general of the Yunnan Army wearing a yellow nickname coat, stood together with his generals and colonels to discuss the current situation.

"What now? It's menacing, but our reinforcements are nowhere to be found, how can this battle be maintained! Someone muttered quietly.

"At the moment, the surroundings of Ganzhou are not very peaceful! In January, the Nanchang and Guangzhou riots in northeastern Guangdong Province met with divisions, and then a group traveled to southern Hunan, wandering around Yizhang, Chenzhou, Zixing, Yongxing, and Leiyang, and heard that it was formed into a division...... I don't know if there is any of the *** in the siege of Ganzhou this time, in addition to the instructor, there is still this part***** someone asked in a whisper.

"Probably not!"

A well-informed regiment commander replied in a whisper, and then introduced what he had learned: "After the riot in southern Hunan, we evacuated Yizhang in early February and exchanged fire with Xu Kexiang's 24th Division at Yanquan. ”

The 24th Division was not supported, and the defeated battle retreated to Pingshi, and then launched a pursuit, successively eliminating two regiments of the 24th Division, and Xu Kexiang fled to Shaoguan. Turned around and went north, and a brigade of He Jian's department fought fiercely in Zheling, the brigade fled to Liangtian, Chenzhou, and was finally surrounded by *** and annihilated, and the deputy division commander of the team was killed on the spot. ”

"*** morale was greatly boosted, and continued to march north to occupy Chenzhou. It is said that after the occupation of Chenzhou, a new division was formed! Judging from all aspects of intelligence, the final destination of the road is Jinggang Mountain, and it will not turn around to Ganzhou. ”

"In this way...... someone just wanted to answer, Yang Chisheng had already raised his hand impatiently, and all the generals were suddenly silent.

Yang Chisheng frowned, picked up the binoculars, and looked at the heavy rain curtain outside the city tower. It rained moderately for most of the day, and there was no sign of stopping, and the defensive trenches outside the city were seriously waterlogged.

The fortifications in all directions of the city were soaked with rain, and all the officers and soldiers on the alert poured into the towers on the eastern, southern, and northern gates to take refuge, and all machine guns and artillery were covered under waterproof tarpaulins.

"Alas!"

Chief of Staff Chen Xianwu glanced around and took the initiative to break the silence: "The officers and soldiers of the four regiments who were captured were released one after another, with a total number of seven hundred and twenty-two, most of whom were either injured or sick, and Li Binghan, who escaped by luck in the fierce battle, howled and cried when he saw his brothers......

"Miserable! Less than half of the main regiment of 1,800 people survived, and even if it quickly replenished its troops and equipped it with weapons, I am afraid that it would have no morale. ”

Wang Wenchao, the deputy division commander on the other side, gritted his teeth, puffed up his thick chest, and said in a low voice: "Although we lost Ganxian County, we also figured out the number and approximate strength of ***." ”

"If the brothers of the Fourth Regiment who returned from release are not exaggerated, in addition to the fact that there is no artillery, this instructor is far stronger than us in other weapons and equipment, especially the *** general Zheng Yi, it is difficult to deal with, it is estimated that the two regiments of the Ji'an garrison division were defeated by him."

Yang Chisheng sighed: "I remember that before the Spring Festival, Brother Yi Zhai (Yang Ruxuan), who moved to Anfu County, wrote to me, admiring this Zheng Yi's mind and military methods, calling him the only one I have seen in my life, and telling me to be more vigilant, and it is best not to conflict with him." ”

"At that time, I thought it was Brother Yi Zhai's cover up after being forced out of Yongxin by Zheng Yi, so I just smiled and didn't care, and Zheng Yi was not mentioned in the reply. It wasn't until Zheng Yi led his troops to occupy Xingguo, and then defeated the two regiments of our troops stationed in Ningdu, that I realized that I was careless! ”

"You all know in the later battle of Jiangkou Town, Zheng Yi's regiment immediately withdrew after defeating a garrison company of our army, and then did not provoke again for a month, but as soon as we relaxed, he led his troops to attack Ganxian County, and caught us off guard, and the speed was amazing."

"If you calculate carefully, we have lost three regiments of troops, and if we add two regiments of local security forces, we have almost eaten up a division."

Speaking of this, Yang Chisheng sighed again: "I don't feel sorry for the local security forces, but I feel sorry for the children of the three regiments!" In order to preserve my strength, I decided to give up all the counties and towns on the periphery of Ganzhou, and let Zheng Yi lead the *** to attack and loot, and make as much trouble as possible. ”

"We just need to gather our troops and defend Ganzhou City, and at the same time ask Brother Yizhi and the big men in Nanjing to urgently send reinforcements to relieve my Ganzhou predicament!"
