The instructor's plan to attack Ganzhou was thus determined. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Because the scale of this battle was very large, it required the mobilization of 80 percent of the instructor's troops and a large amount of materials, and the combat cycle would take at least half a month.

Although the party, government, and military leaders headed by Zheng Yi had different opinions, they unanimously expressed their resolute obedience to the leadership of the central authorities and strictly followed the orders of the central authorities.

Lu Yi, the special commissioner of the Central Committee, basically achieved the purpose of his trip, and accompanied by the responsible persons of the former committee of the base area and several principal and deputy chief officials of the instructors, he left after his belated lunch, and hurriedly returned to the southern Hunan region, where the revolutionary tide was surging, to organize and establish a Soviet government.

Commissar Mao was supposed to send Lu Yi and his entourage to Ninggang County, but Zheng Yi forcibly kept him on the pretext of counting weapons and ammunition and distributing military supplies.

Lu Yi and his entourage also knew that Commissar Mao was about to lead the First Division to fight in southern Hunan, and that weapons, ammunition, and other military supplies were very important to the next stage of the armed struggle in southern Hunan, so they suggested that Commissar Mao stay and complete the distribution of materials as soon as possible, so that they could lead the three regiments of the First Division to Chaling as soon as possible.

The ammunition and supplies returned to Jinggangshan are still being counted.

Nearly a million rounds of rifle ammunition alone, as well as medicines, surgical equipment, and batteries needed for radios urgently needed by the 1st Division and the central hospital in the base area.

The most important thing is that a set of 50-watt high-power radio stations and two 15-watt radio stations need to be immediately sent to the base command center in Ciping, so that the base area communication center, which has already been built but has no equipment, can be put into operation as soon as possible.

Zheng Yi accompanied Commissar Mao into the munitions warehouse behind the Baigong Temple, patrolled around the hastily stacked large quantities of materials, and then returned to Zheng Yi's division commander's office to discuss the material distribution plan.

As soon as Commissar Mao sat down, the guards brought hot fragrant tea.

Zheng Yi took out a pair of dark green socks and a pair of brown and yellow Zhongbang thick rubber-soled soft leather shoes made in the United Kingdom from the small wooden cabinet under the desk, squatted down without saying anything, took off the old cloth shoes that had been opened on Commissar Mao's feet, and replaced the socks and new shoes with Commissar Mao:

"The march and war rely on a pair of feet, I have instructed the quartermaster staff to send 10,000 pairs of British-made Zhongbang military shoes and three radio stations to Ciping, and the rest of the materials will be sent over within two days, but this kind of convenient and durable British-made military shoes are difficult to transport back, and next time I want to replace them with new military shoes, I don't know when I will have to wait."

Commissar Mao was moved in his heart, but the smile on his face was still the same: "Ganzhou is not easy to fight!" Although you have made full preparations in advance and your combat strategy is very ingenious, in the face of the regular Kuomintang army that is more than five times that of your instructor, the slightest carelessness may lead to heavy losses and collapse! ”

"Have you thought about the worst?"

Zheng Yi sighed faintly, stood up and returned to sit down by the charcoal fire: "I've thought about it, why don't you want to?" It is precisely because of the difficulties and dangers of this battle that I ask for a few more days to prepare, alas! ”

"Member Mao, here I would like to request that Comrade Han Shouren be added as a member of the former committee of the base area, and he will be responsible for leading the instructor to stay behind to protect the safety of the base area, and at least guard our three major passes in the northwest, due north and northeast, otherwise I won't be able to relax when I go out!"

Member Mao was very surprised: "There is no problem in adding Comrade Han Shouren as a member of the former committee, and we still can't ask for it...... However, you suddenly made this request, which made me feel that the difference was imminent, this is not your Zheng Yi's style of acting! ”

Zheng Yi took a sharp puff of cigarette and exhaled the spicy smoke along with the turbidity: "At the meeting just now, I didn't dare to tell the truth, I will definitely carry out the orders of the central government, and Ganzhou will definitely fight a dozen, but the first target to attack is not Suichuan, but Xingguo County, which is located 75 kilometers northeast of Ganzhou." ”

Commissar Mao was taken aback, and stood up after a long silence: "What about the map?" Show me the map, tell me what you really think, and if you put it all together, you might be able to make a difference. ”

Zheng Yi took out the map of southern Gan that took three months to draw carefully from the large cabinet against the wall, took it to the wide desk and slowly spread it out, pointing to Donghua Mountain with a small red flag painted on the north side of Ningdu County:

"You know this strange army, it's time to use them now, we will occupy the empty Xingguo county as soon as possible, and then defeat Ningdu, where only one local garrison of the Gan army is stationed, and after getting the replenishment of food and materials, we will immediately turn around and attack Yudu!"

Commissar Mao stared at the map, pondered repeatedly, considered the pros and cons, and soon figured out Zheng Yi's ultimate goal: "You put the main battlefield on the front line of Yudu, which is far away from Jinggangshan, are you worried that the superior enemy stationed in Ganzhou and Ji'an will retaliate against Jinggangshan, which is empty of troops, in anger and shame?" ”

"That's true, no matter how much we can fight, we can't fight a head-on battle with an enemy who is several times larger than ourselves, you see......"

Zheng Yi shook his head and slid his fingers to Suichuan, eighty kilometers northwest of Ganzhou, again: "Suichuan is a very remote small city, with a population of less than 20,000 people outside the city. ”

"The enemy in Ganzhou is likely to ignore it, and a division of the Dian Army stationed in Ji'an will not go south to rescue Suichuan, which is not in its own defense area, and Wan'an County, thirty kilometers northeast of Suichuan, is different......"

"Wan'an is not only a water and land hub connecting the north and the south, but also a strategic place that cannot be missed, if we can't take Wan'an County in one day, the enemy of Ji'an in the north and Ganzhou in the south will quickly reinforce Wan'an in order to ensure the important waterways connecting the north and the south, in order to control the bad political influence to a minimum!"

"At that time, we will immediately fall into the dangerous situation of being exposed to the enemy on our backs, and we can only save our lives by retreating to the Jinggangshan base area, otherwise there will be a danger of annihilation of the whole army, not to mention any extravagant talk about attacking Ganzhou and expanding the revolutionary base area."

Commissar Mao nodded frequently: "I finally understand your hardship......

"If the main battlefield is set in the triangle of Xingguo, Ningdu and Yudu, the Dian army stationed in Ji'an will not step out of its own defense area to the south to rescue, nor will it take the initiative to attack the Jinggangshan base area!"

"At that time, the enemy you will have to face is only Ganzhou to defend the enemy, and you can mobilize the superior enemy in Ganzhou, forcing the enemy to give up his advantages and go to Xingguo with complex terrain to fight on the front line ......of the capital" (to be continued.) )
