Chapter 1509: Victory Meeting
Mr. Peng said: "My old Peng is happy, but I don't think about it so much, and I don't bother to think about it. Anyway, whatever you do Mao, I'll follow what you do. Now that he admires you so much, he will surely not harm you. The cigarettes you smoke now in your hand are none of them, and what is written in your hand is Mao-Chairman himself, as if we will snatch your cigarettes, hehe. ”
Mao Rundong looked at the mountains outside the window and said to himself: "His arrival may be earth-shattering." We really don't know if it's a blessing or a disaster. ”
Mr. Peng said with a smile: "It's a blessing or a curse, but it can't be avoided, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, what are you afraid of?" Ha ha. ”
Mao Rundong also laughed: "Yes, what are you afraid of?" We've all been scared of what we should be afraid. Haha......"
……
Guo Zhuocheng, Mao Runtan and others in Zunyi City have been directing Chen Peng, who is far away in Chongqing, how to clear out the remnants of the city's forces and how to do a good job of defense, and at the same time not to show too strong strength, so as not to speed up and scare away the tax police corps in Chongqing under Jiang Jieshi's strict orders.
When he finally quieted down, he said to Mao Runtan: "Go!" Let's go outside to get some air and see what the address of the Zunyi Conference looks like. ”
Mao Runtan knew from Guo Shucheng's mouth that the Zunyi Conference was an important meeting for his brother's re-emergence in the army, and without this meeting, his brother might not be able to take power again, and it can be said that this is his brother's blessed land, but also his blessed land, and even more so the blessed land of China's revolution, which should be visited and admired.
Hearing that they were going out, Cao Xinchun, the commander of the guard battalion, immediately arranged for the guard soldiers to set up sentry posts, check the safety along the way, and arrange snipers in key places.
Guo Zhuocheng did not refuse Cao Xinchun's arrangement, although his current feeling is very sensitive, and ordinary people can feel it by him before they get close to him, as long as he is not strafed by machine gun fire, as long as he is not bombarded by shells, a small number of bullets will not hit him at all, but he still thinks that it is better to be cautious, in case some crazy people organize to snipe him, so it is really not worth being shot.
Even if he can get out safely, it is not a good thing for others to be injured or killed, you must know that what he lacks now is talent, and what he lacks is a person who is in charge of himself, and the people who can stay by his side have at least one ability, at least their specialty, if they really want to lose, the impact will be too great.
It was not far from the headquarters to the place where the Zunyi meeting was held, and within a few minutes they walked there.
Looking at the two-story building that he had seen countless times in that time and space in 1992, and looking at the familiar brick and wood structure, Guo Zhuocheng had a feeling of being in a dream. An old man who was in charge of cleaning and taking care of the house here saw Guo Zhuocheng and them coming in, and hurriedly greeted them, saying hello to the chief.
Guo Shucheng asked: "Did the Red Army hold a meeting here some time ago?" ”
"yes, yes." The old man hurriedly said.
Mao Runtan looked up and down and asked, "How many years has this house been built, it looks quite new." Whose house is it? ”
The old man said, "It has been built for more than ten years. It is the private residence of Bai Huizhang, commander of the Second Division of the 25th Army of the Guizhou Army. ”
Mao Runtan smiled: "This guy will enjoy it." Commander Guo, your official position is bigger than his Bai Huizhang, do you say that your personal money can afford such a big house? I really don't know how many people he exploited. Hey, a warlord is a warlord after all, and there are almost no people who don't drink the blood of soldiers and swallow military salaries. ”
Guo Zhuocheng said: "When the war is over and the country is stable, if we, the senior generals, can we retire, why not build a house like this to live in?" I'm afraid that it's not enough for someone to have such a big house. ”
Mao Runtan's eyes puffed out and said, "What? Can't enough of such a nice house? It's so greedy, Lao Tzu has to kill him. ”
Guo Zhuocheng said half-jokingly and half-truthfully: "Okay, when the war is over, you will become the minister of supervision, specifically to suppress corrupt officials and corrupt officials, how about it?" ”
Mao Runtan replied casually: "Okay! When I see one, I will shoot one, I think who of them dares to be greedy? ”
Guo Zhuocheng and Mao Runtan just walked around the small building, walked to the door of the room used for meetings, and did not walk in, just looked outside, and then retreated.
……
As Mao Rundong and Mr. Peng, who took the lead, gained a firm foothold in Guiyang, the main Red Army, which was tired and lacked food and clothing and had little ammunition, began to emerge from its hiding place one after another, and began to go to Guiyang City in a planned way to receive weapons, ammunition, military supplies, and food.
Soon they had a new look and morale was booming.
Now not only is he not afraid of the central army coming to encircle and suppress them, but he also hopes that they will come, hoping to give them a blow to the head.
At the same time as changing equipment, they also actively digested those captured officers and soldiers of the central government, either persuading or forcing them to join in order to replenish the losses of the previous battle.
The higher-level leaders also turned a blind eye to them, because after so many battles, the Red Army had reduced its personnel very strictly, and many troops were so small in number that they could not even keep their numbers.
What they don't know is that because of the arrival of Guo Shucheng, history has changed greatly, at least they should not continue to carry out the arduous Long March, let alone the kind of climbing snow-capped mountains and crossing grasslands that are unbearable for ordinary people.
You must know how difficult it was for the Red Army to climb snow-capped mountains and cross grasslands in history: when thirsty, they could only catch a handful of snow, when they were hungry, they could only grab a handful of fried noodles, and some even dug grass roots to eat, and if there were no grass roots, they could cook belts and leather shoes to eat. Hunger and disease have claimed countless lives, and tens of thousands of people are left with only a few thousand left when they reach their destination.
Now these people have survived, and they are still alive and well, and these are the backbone and pillars of China.
Thinking of the impact he had brought to the Red Army, Guo Zhuocheng was very gratified, not only humanitarianism, but more importantly, these Red Army, which had been tested by countless wars, were all national treasures and stars of hope for the rise of the Chinese nation.
On the morning of the third day after the occupation of Chongqing led by Chen Peng (that is, Zhang Pingkai welcomed Mao Rundong, Peng Zong, and others into Guiyang), Guo Zhuocheng received a telegram from the leaders of the Central Red Army, inviting him to meet in Guiyangcheng.
Upon receiving this telegram jointly signed by Mao Rundong, Zhou Luolai, Commander-in-Chief Zhu, and General Peng, Guo Chengcheng was filled with emotion and said in his heart: "I finally have to meet these great men, and I hope that the wheel of history will begin to deviate from its original track at this moment, and the train of history will carry the Chinese nation to a faster and broader front, the suffering suffered by the Chinese in history will be greatly reduced, and China's strength will be realized sooner rather than later." ”
The command of the column directly under him was handed over to Wang Guangdao, and Guo Shucheng and Mao Runtan rode towards Guiyang with the guard battalion. It was about 130 kilometers from Zunyi to Guiyangcheng, and it took less than two days for Guo and his entourage.
At six o'clock in the afternoon of April 15, 1935, Guo Shucheng and Mao Runtan appeared in the southern suburbs of Guiyangcheng, and Mao Rundong led a group of leaders to greet them here.
Seeing these great men appear in front of him, without waiting for the messenger who rushed over on horseback to report, Guo Zhuocheng immediately turned over the saddle and dismounted, handed over the horse to the guards, and walked towards them alone.
Mao Runtan, whose eyesight was not as good as Guo Shucheng, was stunned for a moment, but he immediately dismounted and followed him, but he consciously or unconsciously lagged his body behind Guo Shucheng by half a position.
"Report! Guo Shucheng, commander of the column directly under the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, reports to all the leaders, please instruct! There was still a foot away from the other party, and Guo Zhuocheng immediately reported loudly.
Mao Rundong, Mr. Zhu, and Zhou Luolai glanced at each other, smiled at each other, and then quickened their pace to meet each other.
Mao Rundong stretched out his hands a long time ago, and said as he walked: "Guo Zhuocheng, I have wanted to meet you for a long time, you are still a doll, how can you fight so well?" ”
Although Guo Zhuocheng knew that Mao Rundong had something to say, he still hurriedly held the other party's hand and said: "It's not that the chairman has taught well, it's your clever method, we just rely on the gourd to draw the scoop, it's nothing." ”
Mao Rundong said happily: "You are modest, it's not a good thing to be too modest." There are more troops than yours, but we keep running, keep drilling circles, and finally get rid of Chiang's pursuit. You have come with great spurt, and you cannot speak the same words. ”
Guo Shucheng said calmly: "Let me wait for me to carefully report to the leaders the miracle that happened in our direct column." After that, he saluted Mr. Zhu and Zhou Luolai.
Mr. Zhu didn't say much, just said: "Xiao Guo, it's hard work." ”
Guo Zhuocheng shook the other party's hand vigorously and said: "It's not hard, your chief and the main Red Army are too thrilling and too hard, you have gone through nine deaths and a lifetime, and if you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future." ”
Zhou Luolai shook hands and said: "Xiao Guo, the main force of the Central Red Army is really thanks to your weapons and equipment and military supplies, thanks to your strategic cooperation. We are all grateful to you for the recapture of the Central-Soviet Zone. ”
Guo Shucheng replied: "This is also our luck, plus we have a deep understanding of guerrilla warfare and movement warfare from cadres to soldiers, and we are not afraid of strong enemies, so we have succeeded." ”
……
Mao Runtan, who was next to him, also saluted and met with these leaders.
After the three bigwigs met, Guo Zhuocheng went to meet with Mr. Peng, Mr. Lin and others, and there was a lively and sincere greeting between them.
At this time, people did not have too many thoughts in their hearts, especially after the Xiangjiang Campaign, the Zunyi Conference, and the four crossings of Chishui, everyone's hearts were all the same, and everyone was thinking about how to go out and how to establish a base area, and almost none of them thought about their own personal affairs.
Seeing Guo Zhuocheng come with so many weapons and equipment, they all smiled, and they were all happy that Guo Zhuocheng had helped him increase his strength, that he was happy that the Red Army as a whole had grown in strength, and that he was even happier about the future prospects.
