Chapter 270: Tingzhou (Third Update, Asking for Subscriptions and Monthly Passes)

On the high post of the Huangyang Boundary Pass in the Jinggangshan Base Area, the conversation continued. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After listening to Commissar Mao's thoughts, Commander Zhu nodded heavily after a little thought: "I agree, the opportunity is rare, and if you lose it, you won't have it again, not to mention that the morale of the whole army is high, and it's time to go out!" ”

Chen Zhonghong, director of the political department on the side, leaned over and said in a Sichuan voice: "Right, it's time to go out, the Jinggangshan base area already has a solid mass foundation, peasant associations and Red Guards have been formed in all villages and towns, and the children have also set up children's regiments. ”

"By the way, didn't the Engineer Corps complete the construction task? The 1,800 men of the regiment are veterans of more than one year of military service, and all of them have weapons, and if more than a dozen machine guns are issued, they can be used as the main regiment. ”

Wan Xixian also joined the discussion between Commissar Mao and Commander Zhu, and what he just said immediately aroused the great attention of Commander Zhu and Director Chen, and if this engineering regiment can be merged into the sequence of the 10th Division, which lacks major generals, the combat effectiveness of the whole army will be greatly enhanced.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Commissar Mao smiled slightly, and said humorously: "I'm afraid I have to ask Comrade Han Shouren for this matter, the engineer regiment, like the garrison battalion stationed in Xiaping, is a garrison left by the instructor, and it has always been led by Comrade Han Shouren. ”

"I won't hide it from you, my comrades and I of the former committee have been salivating for a long time."

Everyone laughed, but after laughing, they suddenly found that things had become complicated, even if Han Shouren, who had a generous personality, agreed, but in the end, he still had to teach the instructor Zheng Yi to nod.

Chief of Staff Wang Erzhuo also came over: "No wonder everyone is greedy, it's the same on my side!" I just have to think about the Czech 79 rifles that are all 800 officers and men of the Xiaping garrison battalion, and the Czech light machine guns that are equipped to the squad level, and I can't sleep. ”

The laughter sounded again, and He Tingying, the political commissar of the 11th Division, sighed after laughing: "Nearly half of the 800 officers and soldiers of the Xiaping Garrison Battalion are veterans who followed Comrade Zheng Yi all the way from Nanchang to Jinggangshan, and the remaining half are excellent soldiers who participated in the Battle of Chaling. ”

"Every time I go to Xiaping, I almost always go to the Songshan Barracks to have a meal, observe the training of the officers and soldiers of the garrison battalion, and the unique political and ideological education, and I have benefited a lot! I have to admit that this is an extremely excellent unit, which can be pulled into the battlefield at any time and given heavy responsibilities. ”

Everyone then heated up, thinking about how to persuade Han Shouren to make a request to Zheng Yi, the instructor and teacher, in the name of the former enemy committee.

Commissar Mao spoke again: "Don't think about it, although Zheng Yi is very generous, he is also a very nostalgic person!" If he had agreed to transfer the Xiaping garrison battalion and the hard-working engineer regiment to the front committee of the base area, he would not have transferred the Sixth Regiment and the two guard battalions stationed in Xingguo. ”

"Therefore, I advise everyone to stop attacking the idea of the Xiaping garrison battalion and the engineer regiment, and would rather ask Comrade Zheng Yi for more weapons, equipment, medicines, and radios, rather than complicate things."

After listening to Commissar Mao's words, Commander Zhu, Wang Erzhuo and others stopped mentioning the matter, Director Chen laughed, and skillfully turned the topic to the good news sent by the instructor the day before yesterday:

"The instructor can really fight, but if you don't accept it, you can't do it! I don't know where the instructor will turn his attack direction after taking Tingzhou? Will he go south to Hailufeng to support Comrade Peng's base area? Comrade Zheng Yi and Comrade Peng Tong had formed a deep friendship long before the Northern Expedition and were old friends, haha! ”

Commissar Mao raised his eyebrows: "Zhong Hong's speculation is very likely to happen!" After the failure of the Guangzhou Uprising, Comrade Peng Peng led his troops back to Hailufeng, and the scattered rebel troops also went to the northeastern part of Guangdong to rendezvous, and since then they have been constantly fighting against the reactionary forces of Guangdong Province who have been encircled and suppressed by heavy troops. ”

"The first time Comrade Zheng Yi met Comrade Peng Peng was at the Guangzhou Peasant Training Center, and I happened to be present at that time, and the two of them hit it off at first sight and sympathized with each other, and once Comrade Zheng Yi knew Comrade Peng's current difficult situation, he would definitely go to reinforcements regardless of everything."

Commander Zhu nodded frequently: "It is very likely that to the south of Ruijin and Tingzhou, it is Shanghang and Yongding, and then it is the northeast region of Guangdong, with the strong combat effectiveness and extraordinary marching speed of the instructor, it will be able to cross the border between Fujian and Guangdong provinces in three days at most, and enter the Hailufeng area, and the local troops of the Guangdong army will definitely not be able to stop the rampaging instructor." ”

He Tingying immediately made a suggestion: "When I go back, I will immediately send a telegram to Comrade Zheng Yi and ask them about the direction of their next move." ”

……

……

Tingzhou is an ancient state capital with a history of 1,000 years, since the Tang Dynasty, until the fall of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Tingzhou has been an important transportation and trade town on the thousand-mile border between Jiangxi and Fujian, Changting County is the seat of the state capital, and the surrounding seven counties such as Liancheng, Ninghua, Qingliu, Guihua, Shanghang, Wuping and Yongding are all under the rule of Tingzhou.

After the Xinhai Revolution, the entire Fujian Province, like most provinces in the country, inevitably fell into the violent turmoil of warlordism and war, followed by bandits, cut off trade routes, rampant arrogance, and poor livelihood, and the remote Tingzhou rapidly declined, no longer having the glory of the past.

Longyan in the hinterland of southern Fujian has been continuously developing by relying on its convenient transportation conditions, mineral resources have been developed one after another, commerce, agriculture and handicrafts have become increasingly prosperous, and the population has also grown rapidly, gradually replacing the status of Tingzhou.

Surrounded by mountains, the population of Tingzhou Prefecture has been decreasing year by year, and over the years, wealthy families with a little access have moved to Longyan, Zhangzhou, Xiamen, Putian and other places to settle down.

Even the Shilijian City, which has a history of 1,000 years and is proud of generations of Tingzhou people, has been collapsing because of disrepair, and the city wall stones and large city bricks with a long history have been demolished continuously, turning into houses and even pigsties, leaving only three towering city gates and a two-mile-long towering city wall on the side of the river, which can still make people remember the glory of the past.

Because of this, the second and third regiments of the instructor launched a single charge, and defeated the 800-strong Tingzhou powerful army, and occupied the entire state city in only half an hour.

None of the three major landlords who are the most famous and have the deepest grievances have run away, and the people living outside Tingzhou have not yet understood what is going on, and more than ten fiery red battle flags inlaid with yellow sickles and hammers have fluttered in the wind above the three towering city towers.

It was a very memorable day -- June 1, 1928.

On the same day that the instructor captured Tingzhou, on the battle flags of the instructor's division headquarters and various regiments and battalions, nine black fonts were written from top to bottom near the flagpole: Instructor of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army!

In the following three days, Zheng Yi, the instructor and teacher, changed his previous mild methods and sent a large number of political cadres to the cities and villages to carry out extensive propaganda, personally carrying grain, cloth, and the ocean to comfort nearly 100 lonely and widowed elderly families in and out of the city, and to shelter all the street children and beggars.

In just half a day, the victims who saw hope put aside all their worries and reported the crimes committed by the three heroes over the years with tears in their eyes, and the five squire representatives who were trembling with fear lifted their brushes and wrote notices in the midst of bursts of sad weeping, and told the public about the crimes committed by the three heroes and the Kuomintang government officials over the years in the form of a list of announcements.
