Xu Rui said: "At the beginning, the military department promised us, as long as our independent regiment insists on the war of resistance, is not a traitor, and does not ask the military department for a penny and a bullet, how should this battle be fought, the military department will not intervene, it has only been a few months, Lao Wang, you shouldn't forget it so quickly, right?" ”

"Of course I haven't forgotten this." Wang Husheng nodded, and said, "But fighting Feicheng is different, this is attacking a provincial city, the stakes are very high, if you don't ask the military department, I'm afraid I can't say it?" ”

Wang Husheng did have some concerns, when the 79th Division was temporarily reorganized into the New Fourth Army Independent Regiment, the military department did give the independent regiment an order to fight the war independently, but at that time, it was not taken into account that Xu Rui had just accepted the reorganization of the Communist Party, and that central Anhui was really far away from southern Anhui, so he did not dare to be too strict in terms of organization.

You are too strict, what if it provokes Xu Rui's backlash?

But after a few months of contact, Wang Husheng already has enough understanding of Xu Rui's personality, and he found that Xu Rui really has no one in other aspects except for a little problem with his life style, this is really a thorough Marxist, and he is also a Marxist with superb military command attainments.

Therefore, now, Wang Husheng dares to ask Xu Rui with higher standards.

The higher standard is organization and discipline, and the Communist Party's troops must be subordinated to the organization, and they are absolutely not allowed to engage in mountaineering and sectarianism.

Why did the Beiyang Army quickly degenerate from an invincible new army to a vulnerable defeated army in less than ten years?

The main reason for this is that the Beiyang Army has not fundamentally put an end to mountaineering, and there are still many mountains and factions in the army, and with mountains and factions, there must be dumping, whether they are soldiers or officials, they will come forward to grab the benefits when they see them, and they will instinctively push them on the heads of others when they have difficulties.

Judging from the current situation, the Nationalist Army is also following the old path of the Beiyang Army, and the army is also full of mountains and factions.

However, the communist troops will never and cannot follow the old path of the Beiyang Army, so they must emphasize organization and discipline, and must emphasize obedience to the higher organizations.

The incident of fighting Feicheng alone is not enough to show that Xu Rui has no organization and discipline, after all, the military department did promise not to interfere with the independent regiment.

However, if Xu Rui really does not report to the military department in advance, it will inevitably leave an impression of disorganization in the minds of the higher-level leaders, especially now that the leadership of the New Fourth Army is still very complicated, then it is even more necessary to be cautious, Wang Husheng is also thinking about Xu Rui's future, and Gao Hanting, the commander of the fourth detachment, is very unhappy with some leaders of the military department because of this.

Therefore, Wang Husheng was really hesitant, because he was worried that Xu Rui would leave a bad impression on the leader.

Xu Rui easily guessed Wang Husheng's worries, but unlike Wang Husheng, Xu Rui was not worried at all that he would leave a bad impression in the minds of the military leaders, not that he did not respect the leaders of the military department, but because he was a time-traveler who had crossed over from the future world and knew how to protect himself.

No matter which party organization, cleaning is always inevitable, just like the human body, in the process of growth, it is inevitable that some poisonous tumors and pus will grow, if you don't scrape off these tumors, if you don't squeeze out the pus, you will be killed by the virus, but in the process of scraping and squeezing out the pus, it is inevitable that some innocent people will be injured.

At this time, it is very important to stand in line, but for a traveler who knows the direction of history, how to stand in line is still a problem? In a word, just follow Chairman Mao! As for those messengers sent by the Comintern, I'm sorry, Xu is sorry, Xu is sorry, you should stay where you are.

So Xu Rui really didn't worry about himself, and said at the moment: "Lao Wang, if the heads of the military department asked about it afterwards, you said that at the beginning, we just wanted to blow up the arsenal and carry out a sabotage attack, but who would have thought that the four detachments would also rush over to join in the fun, and as a result, Feicheng was accidentally knocked down." ”

"Accidentally knocked it down?" Wang Husheng smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Lao Xu, you are a cold-hearted person, if you let those senior members of the national army hear this, you will not be angry to death?" They fought so hard that they vomited blood and couldn't defend even a big city, let alone recover it, but you accidentally recovered a provincial city, hey! ”

"That can't be helped, who made them not have that ability? Hey. ”

"Okay, then don't ask the military department for instructions for the time being."

"Commissar, that's right."

Wang Husheng was finally persuaded to send a telegram to the four detachments.

(Dividing Line)

Gao Hanting, commander of the fourth detachment of the New Fourth Army, is a legendary figure.

Gao Hanting is one of the founders of the Red 25th Army, after the Red 25th Army's Long March to the north, Gao Hanting was ordered to form the Red 28th Army and stay in the Dabie Mountains to persist in fighting guerrillas, the Red 28th Army with a team of less than 2,000 people, but in three years has defeated a hundred times the stronger enemy than himself, so angry that Lao Jiang three times to remove the commander-in-chief is also to no avail.

Wei Lihuang, the last commander-in-chief, sat on 200,000 regular troops, gathered more than 100 homecoming regiments and security regiments, built more than 80,000 pillboxes, dug more than 40 blockade ditches in an attempt to trap the Red 28th Army, but in the end it was still to no avail, Gao Hanting even dared to counterattack on a large scale and attack Wei Lihuang's headquarters.

Otherwise, Wei Lihuang happened to change the headquarters and became a prisoner.

After the outbreak of the 77 Lugou Bridge Incident, the Red 28th Army was reorganized into the fourth detachment of the New Fourth Army, under the jurisdiction of the 7th, 8th, and 9th regiments, with a total strength of more than 3,000 people, and was the strongest combat effectiveness among the four detachments of the New Fourth Army. The army has grown to more than 9,000 people.

Regrettably, in 37 years, Wang Ming returned to China with the Comintern's "holy decree" to seize power, and the New Fourth Army was far more influenced by the Comintern than the Eighth Route Army because it was closer to Wuhan, so it was first affected; when Wang Ming proposed that everything going through the united front and obeying the united front was actually handing over military command to the Kuomintang in disguise, Gao Hanting refused to give up the anti-Japanese base area in central Anhui, and as a result, he was charged with various crimes and brutally killed.

Although Chairman Mao was far away in Yan'an, he had the heart to save him, but the distance was too far, after learning that Gao Hanting was detained, Chairman Mao hurriedly wrote a secret letter, asking the Southeast Bureau to deal with it prudently, and clearly proposed that if necessary, Gao Hanting would be sent to Yan'an for further review by the organization, but unfortunately, before Chairman Mao's secret letter was delivered, Gao Hanting was secretly executed.

History has no if, if Gao Hanting had not been wrongly executed, if Zuo Quan had not died on Taihang Mountain, these two famous generals with outstanding military achievements would probably have been awarded the title of marshal, then the list of generals in New China is likely not to be the current top ten marshals and ten generals, but will be the twelve generalissimos and twelve generals.

However, at this time, Gao Han Pavilion was in the most glorious moment of his short life, not long ago, taking advantage of the precious opportunity when the Japanese army in central Anhui swept the Dameishan base area and the rest of the troops in all directions, the four detachments took the opportunity to launch a wave of large-scale attacks, and recovered the two counties of Wuwei and Lujiang in one fell swoop.

Now the four detachments control as many as four in the county seat alone!

In other words, now the devils only control the narrow strip of land on both sides of the Feiwu Highway.

After sending away a few of his regiment commanders, Gao Hanting said to the political commissar Xiao Huadong: "Lao Xiao, don't say it, the reason why we were able to successfully recover the two counties this time is really thanks to Xu Rui's independent regiment, if it weren't for the independent regiment to attract the main force of the Kawaguchi detachment to Dameishan, we really wouldn't have found this kind of opportunity." ”

Xiao Huadong nodded and said: "Yes, this time we recovered the two county seats, half of the credit has to be credited to the head of the independent regiment, and I don't know how the anti-sweeping operation on the Dameishan side is going now, the independent regiment is facing the sweep of a detachment of the Kawaguchi detachment alone with a regiment of soldiers, can they afford it?" ”

"Alone? Who says they are alone? Gao Hanting said with a smile, "Lao Xiao, I didn't plan to take the benefits of the independent regiment in vain, I decided, tomorrow I will let the eighth regiment and the ninth regiment go north and put on a posture of attacking Feicheng, even if the Chuankou detachment cannot be transferred back from the Damei Mountains, at least the devils of Feicheng must be held." ”

Xiao Huadong nodded and muttered, "That's all we can do." ”

However, as soon as Xiao Huadong's voice fell, the officer of the communications office walked in and reported: "Commander, political commissar, our radio station has just received a text message from the Chase Agency. ”

"Chase Agency?" Gao Hanting said, "Why does it sound familiar to me? ”

Xiao Huadong shook his head and said helplessly: "Hey, isn't this so-called Datong Society the head of the independent regiment, Xu Rui?" Last time, the independent regiment won a big victory in Teapot Pass and Dawan, and killed the devil major general Yumura Shuichi, wasn't it just an announcement issued by this Chase News Agency? ”

"Oh, I remember." Gao Hanting nodded suddenly, then clapped his hands and shouted, "Political commissar, don't say it, Xu Rui's kid is playing quite beautifully, let's get a news agency another day, just call it Anhui News Agency, let's be the news agency in the anti-Japanese base area in Anhui." ”

Xiao Huadong waved his hand and asked the officer of the communications office: "Director Liu, what did the Datong News Agency say?" ”

Director Liu showed a hint of strangeness on his face, and said: "The text message of the Datong News Agency said that they had just thwarted the sweep of the Kawaguchi detachment and annihilated the invading enemy, and the Datong News Agency also quoted Xu Rui, the head of the independent regiment, as saying that their Dameishan Independent Regiment was by no means easy to mess with, and it also made the devils in Anhui ......."
