At about 1 o'clock in the afternoon of December 20, 1934, after a continuous rapid march, the 48th Brigade of the 16th Division of the 28th Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army, Zhang Liangji, under the leadership of the brigade commander Huang Kaiyang, rushed to the "Three Provinces Slope".

Huang Kaiyang is not afraid of those red bandits at all. It's just that his division commander is more cautious, and he has to be like this as a subordinate. If Master Zhang is also afraid of those red bandits, don't know it, he still knows. He knew it was impossible. As the old subordinate of the division commander, he was transferred by the division commander Zhang, and he admired the fierceness, courage and strategy of the division commander from the bottom of his heart. However, this time the division commander's way of doing this really made him feel strange. However, because he knew that the Tao Guang Department of the 62nd Division had been hit hard, he nodded secretly in his heart, guessing that the division commander was so vigilant because of the situation of the 62nd Division. At the moment, I felt that this division commander was worthy of being a general, and he also knew to be cautious at this time. Of course, for him, it was different, he thought that kind of problem should be considered by the division commander, and he only needed to annihilate the red bandits, and he didn't have to worry about those red bandits. To tell the truth, Tao Guang's 62nd Division, in his eyes, is similar to those red bandits, a kind of "bandits", and its combat effectiveness is absolutely not good. The last time the 62nd Division suffered a loss, it was entirely because the red bandits did not play their cards according to common sense and attacked from behind. And this time I don't have to worry about this, because behind me is the 47 Brigade led by the division commander. As long as you are behind your back, you don't have to worry about other aspects at all. Let me ask, my own first-class brigade that has just been reorganized and equipped, the firepower is not vegetarian, and what kind of "bandits" dare to come to pick up the tiger's whiskers?

Of course, he was still a little smug and a little confused. Because of the orders of the division commander, his unit repaired for two days, and later when searching and advancing, he made a mistake in the specific address, and missed one of the red bandits, according to intelligence, the Fifth Army Corps, which caused his troops to be delayed for two days again. If it weren't for those red bandits occupying the passage and reporting the situation in time, I was afraid that I would have to search and move forward by mistake. Well, those who engage in intelligence are all rice buckets, and this kind of intelligence is also wrong? Fortunately, it was passed on in time, and if it was any later, we would have missed the opportunity to make meritorious contributions. It's just that we want to make meritorious contributions, but this red bandit is gone. Early in the morning, the division commander ordered his whole brigade to search and advance in the direction of Dupo, but after searching for so long, it was all day before yesterday, all day yesterday, and again today, not to mention the main force of the red bandits, and not even a single civilian was seen along the way. The hills on the road were searched, the ditches and ditches were searched, the spearheads kept reporting that they had not found the enemy, and the brethren of the avant-garde troops had climbed the mountain and drilled the ravines to exhaustion, but there were no red bandits. Could it be that the main force of the red bandits has run to the sky? That's a joke for sure. Do you want to rest in the county seat of the passage? That's not right either. First, they didn't look at the troops they left behind to cover the enemy, and secondly, Division Commander Zhang had already said that there was intelligence that the passage had reached the hands of the Central Army. Could it be that it is flowing in the direction of Guizhou? Well, it seems that there is only this possibility, the red bandits must have fled to Guizhou, and only by escaping to Guizhou will they run so thoroughly, not even leaving a small group of covering troops. If the red bandits flow in the direction of Guizhou, then we have to speed up the pursuit. Regardless of the fact that the chairman spent so much manpower and material resources to build the Xiangxi defense line was ineffective, and regardless of the fact that Wang Jialie's double-spearmen in Guizhou were afraid that they would not be able to stop the red bandits, just because these red bandits had become tired soldiers after the Xiangjiang War, and they couldn't run fast or far, plus we had to get a handful of money when we were about to enter Guizhou, so we had to speed up the pace of pursuit!

Thinking of this, Huang Kaiyang, who was bent on "beating the water dogs", no longer hesitated, and immediately ordered the troops to speed up the march, and ordered to strengthen the search. The Chief of Staff immediately ordered the execution. In a flash, more than an hour passed, and the search force in front still came with news: no red bandits were found!

It's weird! Huang Kaiyang was a little annoyed and scolded these scouts. Angry, the two scouts ran over panting. Huang Kaiyang was not angry, and after communicating with these two soldiers, the chief of staff thought about it carefully, still came over, and cautiously reported to the brigade commander: "These two were searched on the other side of the mountain just now. They said that there was another road on the other side of the mountain, not the main road, so it was not too wide, but there were many footprints on the road, as well as hoof prints and dung of mules and horses! ”

Well, is there such a thing?

When Huang Kaiyang, who was born in the army, heard this, his heart moved immediately, and he stopped scolding. I carefully interrogated the two scouts who were a little behind at first, but later encountered this situation by chance, and learned about the general situation. Although he didn't say anything, his heart moved: Oh, if the lord wants to take care of me this day, there is no way. Mule and horse manure, what is that? What does that mean? That means the central organ of the Red Bandits! Ordinary people's? Where did the common people get so many mules and horses? According to what the two soldiers said just now, it seems that there is a lot of mule and horse feces, so it can never be ordinary people, but only military. Is it from your own troops? No way! My own brigade is the leading force! Is it a friendly neighbor unit? It's impossible, they're all behind, and there's no notification that a friendly neighbor has arrived here. Therefore, this can only be the Red Bandit troops. However, apart from the so-called central organs, where did the red bandits have any more mules and horses? Well, it's not the time for the red bandits to be in the Soviet zone now, it's hard to say whether there are bullets in the guns of their soldiers, and where are there so many mules and horses? Think about it, when we fought with their main army at the foot hill, weren't all the guns they dropped empty? Now is the time for us to chase their farts and pee, who doesn't beat the water dogs? Heck, if we get rid of their central organs, let's ...... Oops, low-key, low-key, even if you become a military commander, then you have to be low-key! When the time comes, when I see Zhang Liangji, I have to be very sincere, and I want an old chief, so that he feels very comfortable, and he feels that his subordinates are doing a good job. Well, these two soldiers also said just now that that road is not as good as the road we are taking now. At present, the road taken by our troops is the main road, and that road is not the main road, nor is it the only way for us to go to Boyang. It stands to reason that the red bandits who fled to Guizhou first could not abandon this main road and go to that road. But judging by the situation just now, it is the same thing again. Which play are these red bandits singing? Wait, let's think about it - oops, we hunt geese every day, but today we are almost pecked in the eye by geese. We don't want to think about it, our army is chasing so quickly, these red bandits have no way to escape, they can't escape, how can they escape if they don't engage in their old method of drilling ravines and taking wild roads? But who are we? We were picked up by Division Commander Zhang, and it turned out that it was also born in a regular military academy class, even if you drill a ravine and take a wild road? Tell you a red bandit, your method is okay to deal with others, deal with our Hunan army, deal with us Huang Kaiyang, aha, that's self-throwing! We were also born in the mountains back then, and we are very familiar with this mountain! Well, that's it, the whole army will change the route, one word: chase!
