Commissar Mao looked at the map, and the more he spoke, the brighter his eyes became: "Forced by political influence, the enemy in Ganzhou must recover the two counties of Xingguo and Ningdu occupied by you as soon as possible, and look for an opportunity to annihilate you, which gives you an opportunity to take advantage of and creates conditions for the annihilation of the enemy in the movement!" ”

Zheng Yi showed a knowing smile: "There is another possibility, the two main divisions of the 32nd Army, which have been stationed in Ganzhou for three months, are very likely to be unable to retreat and are unwilling to take the initiative to rescue Xingguo and Ningdu." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"At present, the 32nd Army in Ganzhou is nominally a guest army, belonging to Lao Jiang's descendant troops, since Fang Dingying's new 13th Army left Guangdong Province for Hubei Province, only Qian Dajun's 32nd Army remained on the Guangdong-Jiangxi border, and the 32nd Army has actually been in a situation where it is impossible to advance or retreat."

"If you look at it again, to the south, the Thirty-second Army is no longer able to return to Canton, which is extremely xenophobic and in the midst of fratricidal fighting; To the north, it is the territory of Zhu Peide, the commander of the Yunnan army, and in order to win over Zhu Peide, Lao Jiang did not hesitate to give Zhu Peide the post of chairman of Jiangxi Province and chief of the general staff of the whole army, and he will definitely not touch Zhu Peide's interests at this time......

"To the east of Ganzhou, there are three counties of Ruijin that have just experienced the war and have not yet recovered, and there is no armed force led by our party there, and Lao Jiang's descendant troops have lost the excuse of being stationed in the Ruijin area for a long time, and Qian Dajun has been transferred back to his side by Lao Jiang, who has made a comeback, and the situation of the 32nd Army is even more embarrassing."

"Therefore, I speculate here that the 32nd Army will soon be the same as Fang Dingying's new 13th Army, and in less than a month or two, Lao Jiang will be transferred to Jiangbei to participate in the Northern Expedition, or go to the front line of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Huhai, where the troops are empty, to guard the rear for Lao Jiang."

Commissar Mao suddenly lifted his spirits: "If this is the case, Ganzhou may be defeated!" ”

Zheng Yi nodded heavily: "As long as the 32nd Army leaves Ganzhou, we will have a chance to capture Ganzhou, even if we can't defeat it for a while, we can occupy the two counties of Xingguo and Ningdu, firmly contain the enemy in southern Ganzhou, and look for opportunities to annihilate them one by one!" ”

Commissar Mao's fingers lightly tapped the Donghua Mountain marked on the map: "Do you have the ability to defeat Ningdu with this strange army hidden in Donghua Mountain?" ”

Zheng Yi patiently explained: "At present, I don't know what they have developed, for the sake of safety, I will personally lead the two main regiments to set off quietly, and use the day and night marching method to quietly bypass the hilly and mountainous areas north of Wan'an......"

"After crossing the Ganjiang River, we immediately went to Xingguo as fast as possible, and took the county seat of Xingguo with lightning speed, and then sent a regiment to continue to attack Ningdu, and flanked Ningdu with the remaining troops in Donghua Mountain."

"Ningdu currently only has a new regiment of the Jiangxi army, the predecessor of this new regiment is the local powerful armed forces, just received the name given by the Kuomintang Jiangxi Provincial Government, the name is the last regiment, in fact, there are only two battalions at most, the equipment is poor, there is no training, a charge can defeat them."

Commissar Mao showed a reassuring smile: "I am in favor of attacking Xingguo and Ningdu, but in the specific implementation, we need to be more resolute and faster, as long as we can contain the enemy in southern Jiangnan, it is the greatest support for the southern Hunan uprising!" ”

"If we can establish revolutionary armed forces in Xingguo and Ningdu counties and open up new revolutionary base areas, the role played and the huge political influence caused will be even greater, and we may be able to catch up with Jinggangshan!"

Zheng Yi smiled humbly: "It is estimated that it will be very difficult, haha!" ”

"However, no matter what, we will go all out, even if we can't catch up with the Jinggangshan base area, we will sprinkle the flame of revolution all over the country, vigorously propagate the party's policies in the Xingguo and Ningdu areas, try to get in touch with the local party organizations, make full use of the advantages of the local party organizations, and set off a vigorous revolutionary movement."

"We need to develop and arm the peasant Red Guards to assist the local party organizations in establishing revolutionary power, and at the same time we must concentrate our forces on establishing a solid military base in the Donghua Mountains to the north."

"Excellent! As soon as I get back, I will convene a meeting of the front committee to see if I can send a few experienced political officers to assist you. ”

Member Mao gave Zheng Yi strong support.

Zheng Yi said with a smile: "Except for Lao Han's problem, there is nothing else for the time being, I have ordered the whole army to start preparing for battle, and the team will set off in no more than five days at the latest......"

"Comrade Han Shouren led more than 800 people from the guard battalion, the baggage battalion, and the division headquarters to be responsible for the security and defense work in the base areas.

Commissar Mao was overjoyed and patted Zheng Yi on the shoulder and stood up: "The telephone has been connected, the radio communication center has been established, and the general hospital in the base area has also been established. ”

"The day after tomorrow at the latest, I will also rush to Chaling, and I don't know when the next meeting will be......"

……

……

The spring is cold, the drizzle is confused, and the sky and the earth are shrouded in hazy rain and fog.

It was past noon, and the sky was getting clearer.

The caravan of horses composed of thirty-five horses carrying heavy loads left Fujita Town without hesitation, and under the worried gaze of the local people, they slowly marched along the muddy official road, from north to south.

Four hours later, the caravan suddenly left the barren official road, turned into the narrow and rugged mountain path in the east and continued to move forward.

The young shopkeeper not only did not panic at all, but showed a happy smile, and he loudly ordered the seventeen sturdy men accompanying him not to draw their guns, turned over and dismounted, took off the hat on their heads, strode to the leader who was blocking the road, looked at the machine gun looming from the big tree in front of him, and saluted the leader with a wary face:

"Don't get me wrong, this Hakka brother, I, Yu Dingguo, specially came to meet the king leader on Donghua Mountain, I am good friends with the king leader and the brothers on Donghua Mountain."

Before the words fell, a tall figure ran out of the big tree in front of him, and greeted him with flying eyebrows: "Yu Laosan, haha!" Your grandson is still alive......"

"Old Company Commander—"

Yu Dingguo greeted him excitedly and hugged the tall and bearded old company commander Lu Xiangrong tightly: "I'm so happy!" When I left Donghua Mountain with the division commander, you were unconscious, and I cried so hard that I thought I would never see you again....... What, the wound on your stomach is all healed? ”

Lu Xiangrong laughed, and slapped a punch on Yu Dingguo's thick chest: "It's been good a long time ago, Lord Yama doesn't dare to take in a wicked person like me, haha!" How's you kid? Promoted, right? ”

Yu Dingguo smiled and pulled the shrewd man who came behind him:

"Old company commander, let me introduce to you, this is Comrade Shangguan Yong, who is also the combat staff officer of the division headquarters and the deputy commander of the guard battalion, and is now the captain of our task force......

"Last year, Captain Shangguan was transferred from the Autumn Harvest Uprising to our instructor, and he was deeply respected by the division commander and political commissar, and later we participated in the battle against Youxian together, led the transport team together to secretly return to the Jinggangshan base area, and at the end of last year, we swore in the party together."

Shangguan Yong hurriedly took off his hat and saluted Lu Xiangrong, who was looking at him curiously: "Hello Battalion Commander Lu!" The name of the long-standing Yang Lu camp finally met the real person today. ”

Lu Xiangrong casually returned a military salute, stepped forward and shook hands with Shangguan Yong warmly: "I heard the chief of staff mention you, saying that you are a kid who can be literate and martial, and has the demeanor of a general, and today I saw it really extraordinary, haha!" ”

"Oh yes, there's something I want to ask you, are you really a lay disciple of Southern Shaolin in Fujian Province?"

Shangguan Yong nodded modestly: "That's right, I am a native of Putian, Fujian Province, I was frail and sickly when I was a child, and when I was eight years old, under the persuasion of an uncle who became a monk, my family sent me to Southern Shaolin to practice, and I didn't return to the vulgar until I was eighteen years old." ”

Later, I heard that the Northern Expeditionary Army had defeated Wuhan, and I and several classmates immediately rushed to Wuhan from Huhai to sign up for the army, and entered the 73rd Regiment led by Comrade Jiang Xianyun to fight northward."

"All the way to the battle, I survived, not long after the Ninghan split, I followed the 73rd Regiment with only more than 100 people left to evacuate the Central Plains, returned to Wuhan to rest, and then was transferred to the Wuhan National Government Guard Regiment as a platoon commander, and followed Lu Deming to participate in the Autumn Harvest Uprising last autumn."

"In the battle of the Luxi Breakout, I was seriously wounded, and I was about to die when I was carried to Hualien County...... After the injury was healed, with the approval of the higher organization, we all stayed. ”

Lu Xiangrong was immediately impressed, took Shangguan Yong's hand and strode into the village, and ordered loudly as he walked: "Blue platoon commander, continue to be vigilant, Yu Laosan, you lead the horse team to follow, go to the village to drink saliva, I will immediately send someone up the mountain to report to the chief of staff."
