Chapter 298: Caught off guard (second update, asking for a monthly pass)
Zheng Yi, Li Zhao and others hurriedly invited everyone into the conference room and instructed the staff officers to serve tea quickly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Chief of Staff Wang Huchen quickly took out the "Map of the Jiangxi-Fujian Border Region" newly drawn by the surveying and mapping team of the General Staff Section, hung this large military map with a length of two meters and width on the wall directly north of the conference room, picked up a baton made of purple bamboo, and patiently explained:
"This is a map of the Jiangxi-Fujian border drawn by the staff department of our division on the basis of the map drawn by the General Staff Headquarters of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and after a month of on-the-spot surveys by the General Staff Section, the special service company directly under the division, the Second Regiment, and the Guard Regiment, the scale is 1/50,000, which is more detailed and accurate than the map drawn by the Kuomintang government and army."
"It can be said that every river, every mountain, every village, and every road that can be found in the entire Jiangxi-Fujian border and the seventeen counties in northeastern Guangdong have been clearly marked on this map."
Everyone immediately stretched their necks, and comrades such as Wang Haiping, Deng Zihui, and Zhang Dingcheng, who were closer to the map, looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but sigh, and hurriedly asked Wang Huchen to make a few copies.
Zheng Yi and Li Zhao looked at each other and smiled, and Comrade Peng, who was sitting next to Zheng Yi, shook his head with a smile, leaned towards Zheng Yi and laughed in a low voice: "It seems that you have been prepared for a long time!" Look, as soon as the map hangs up, everyone forgets why they are here. ”
"It's so easy, we just want to explain it more clearly." Zheng Yi smiled.
Wang Huchen, who was standing in front of the map, waved his hand, asked everyone to be quiet, and began to explain the evacuation of the second regiment from Xinquan and Miaoqian Town:
"The reason why the Second Regiment of our division withdrew to Nanshan Town to establish a defense is mainly due to the following three reasons: First, the Red Fourth Division has just arrived, the soldiers need to rest, and the wounded and sick urgently need treatment.
"Second, as of yesterday afternoon, more than 4,000 recruits had been sent by party organizations in various parts of western Fujian, and the original 80 military instructors and more than 50 political cadres could no longer take care of them."
"For this reason, the division's staff section and political department had to urgently transfer 300 backbone cadres from the second regiment, the third regiment, and the guard regiment to the battalion in the west of the city to register, conduct physical examinations, selection, reorganization, training, and political examination of more and more recruits.
"Thirdly, and most importantly...... The terrain of Xinquan and Miaoqian Town is very complicated and narrow, which is very unfavorable for launching an attack, so the 2nd Regiment of our division has not been able to launch an attack on the enemy in Gutian and Jiaoyang, which occupy favorable terrain, but has to prevent the enemy troops who are familiar with the place from crossing the mountains and rivers day and night, and constantly harassing our troops from the north and south. ”
"In addition, the two towns of Xinquan and Miaoqian are far away from Tingzhou, and it is very difficult for the two regiments of more than 2,000 soldiers to replenish food and materials, so they can only be sent over from Tingzhou City by carriage and shoulder, and each round trip has to walk 200 kilometers, and 20,000 catties of grain and 5,000 catties of horse material are sent from Tingzhou, and only 10,000 catties of grain and 2,000 catties of horse material are left in front of Xinquan and Miao, because up to 1,000 people and horses pulling carts eat horses and chew horses during the transportation for up to two days and one night, and the consumption is too great."
"Based on the above reasons, the 2nd Regiment of our division had to temporarily withdraw to Nanshan Town, occupy the advantageous terrain, establish defensive positions, and block all the transportation hubs leading to the four directions to prevent the enemy from taking the opportunity to attack and disturb."
"Nanshan Town is only thirty-five kilometers away from Tingzhou, the food supply can be delivered in one day, the consumption is reduced exponentially, and it can also show the enemy to be weak, recuperate, once my instructor completes the adjustment, and nearly 1,000 soldiers of the Red Fourth Division recover, we will not hesitate to concentrate our forces and attack the enemy in Longyan!"
Wang Huchen's explanation was very detailed and convincing, and for the comrades in western Fujian who still need to be trained in food, supplies, and weapons, the reasons are very sufficient and easy to understand.
Wang Huchen returned to Li Zhao and sat down, and Comrade Wang Haiping immediately stood up, faced Comrade Zheng Yi and Peng Peng, and said loudly:
"After repeated discussions and after soliciting the opinions of Comrade Peng Peng and the Party Committee of the Fourth Red Division, our comrades in various counties in western Fujian unanimously agreed that it is necessary to concentrate the revolutionary forces in all counties of western Fujian and even in the border areas of Jiangxi and Fujian as soon as possible for unified leadership and command, and therefore it is necessary to set up a special committee with the highest military and political leadership as soon as possible!"
"Today, we are here with Comrade Peng Peng and Comrade Yuan Guoping to solicit the opinions of Comrade Zheng Yi and the Party Committee of the Instructor, who came from the glorious Nanchang Uprising and has firm revolutionary conviction and strong combat effectiveness, so your opinion is very important."
After Wang Haiping finished speaking, he sat down with a smile, and the comrades in western Fujian and Comrade Peng Peng and other representatives of the Red Fourth Division applauded warmly, and all eyes were focused on Zheng Yi, Li Zhao and others.
Zheng Yi, Li Zhao, and Wang Huchen were deeply surprised, although they had already discussed the establishment of a special committee for the Jiangxi-Fujian border region many times, but the matter came too quickly, and they were caught off guard for a while.
After a short period of surprise, Zheng Yi hurriedly discussed urgently with Li Zhaohe, Wang Huchen, Zhang Yao, and Dong Zongzhuo, and Comrade Peng and Comrade Wang Haiping looked at each other and smiled, and other comrades also happily picked up their teacups and waited patiently.
A few minutes later, Li Zhao, the political commissar of the tutor, as the representative of the tutor, slowly stood up: "Thank you comrades for your trust and support to the tutor!" ”
"To tell the truth, the proposal just put forward by Comrade Wang Haiping has also been discussed by the members of our tutor's party committee, but there has been no in-depth discussion, and I, myself and Senior Commander Zheng, Chief of Staff Wang, Deputy Chief of Staff Zhang, and Director Dong of the Political Department are all members of the tutor's party group, and we, like all comrades, also hope to set up a special committee as soon as possible to exercise unified leadership over the party organizations and armed forces in the border counties of Jiangxi and Fujian."
The warm applause sounded again, and the support of the instructors cleared all obstacles and dispelled the biggest concerns in the hearts of the comrades.
Comrade Peng was very happy: "Comrade Zheng Yi, you can also say a few words." ”
Zheng Yi smiled, stood up and said calmly: "I was caught off guard by everyone, and I almost broke out in a cold sweat." ”
The hall burst into laughter, and Luo Huaisheng, who was sitting opposite Zheng Yi, laughed non-stop, he had decided to hand over the post of county magistrate and deputy secretary of the party committee of the Changting County Revolutionary Government as soon as possible, and transfer him to the instructor as a member of the party committee and political commissar of the teaching brigade.
The laughter slowly stopped, and Zheng Yi said sincerely: "During this time, the instructor is in a tense adjustment, and several members of the party committee of several divisions have to go to various regiments and recruit training camps every day to solve problems, and they have to take half a day every day to take turns to give lectures to the 150 company platoon commanders of the second officer training class, so we did not communicate with the comrades in western Fujian in time, this is a mistake in our work, please understand!" ”
"Senior Zheng is polite, haha!" Zhang Dingcheng reacted the fastest, and he admired Zheng Yi, who was highly meritorious and broad-minded, and his mentors and soldiers.
"Master Zheng, don't say that, we are too busy and didn't take the initiative to report it." Wang Haiping smiled happily, and all the comrades echoed it, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Zheng Yi smiled: "Okay! I won't say anything about modesty, but in light of the current situation on the Jiangxi-Fujian border, as well as the grim situation and the arduous tasks on our shoulders, it is indeed necessary to set up a strong and united special committee to exercise unified leadership over the existing military and political forces. ”
"Next, I would like to hear about the comrades' plans for the creation of a special committee, who will say it first?"
