There is no suspense in the battle. Before the officers and men of the 7th Regiment could react, they were all surrounded, and some of them were knocked down by machine guns while they were still asleep. I have to say that the commander of this regiment is not bad, at least he still sleeps in the troops, and he does not sleep in a woman's bed like an ordinary Kuomintang officer. He wanted to organize a counterattack, but he was already targeted, and he was shot by Chu Zhengbo at once. Li Jiansheng shot the regimental deputy. Licorice shot the chief of staff. Before the 7th regiment had even begun, the regimental commander was almost killed. Some other people who reacted quickly and were about to take guns were also killed by Guo Kailang's department one by one. At this time, a battalion commander of the 7th Regiment took the initiative to ask his subordinates to lay down their arms after asking if the person who came was the South Hunan Independent Regiment of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army led by **. This made Li Jiansheng, who had been watching closely and the gun in his hand had already been aimed at the battalion commander, secretly felt strange, but it was his method to respond to all changes without change, and he was unwilling to kill more, so he only let his troops monitor the battalion and let the battalion commander come over to speak.

First I saw the rows of guns around me, then I saw the machine guns strafing a group of people, and now I saw a battalion commander leading his troops to give up resistance, and the rest of the regiment finally surrendered almost in formation. Li Jiansheng quickly disarmed them, and the whole regiment was divided into three pieces and surrounded separately. The police station and the city defense bureau were also all wiped out, and they were also systematically taken prisoner. That night, Renhua County fell into the hands of Li Jiansheng. The local party organization organized personnel overnight to guide the troops to quickly take down the county magistrate, the secretary of the county party department of the Kuomintang, the chief of the police department, the director of the urban defense bureau, and the director of the tax bureau.

Because of his early experience, the men of Li Jiansheng's logistics company immediately searched the homes of these people, as well as the government treasury. Li Jiansheng came to receive the battalion commander. As soon as the two of them saw each other, they communicated again, only to find that the water had washed away the Dragon King Temple, and it turned out that this battalion commander was called Luo Tiebing, and he was an underground party member! When Li Jiansheng heard this, he was very happy, and he also knew that ** had a very good foundation in this Guangdong army, but he didn't expect to meet it here. But he was more cautious, and he still asked his Zhao Boping to quickly get in touch with the local party organization in the way provided by Luo Tiebing, and he only talked to Luo Tiebing. At dawn the next day, Zhao Boping, who had long been in contact with the Special Committee of Northern Guangdong, finally sent a message confirming that this Luo Tiebing was an underground party member. It stands to reason that this matter could have been confirmed at that time, but because Luo Tiebing was in the army and had no direct subordinate relationship with their special commission in northern Guangdong, he could only turn a few corners and ask the higher level before he finally confirmed it, so he came late.

It's good that the identity is clear, and Li Jiansheng doesn't care whether it's earlier or later. The rest is easy to do, and the communication between the two sides is real. Luo Tiebing immediately told Li Jiansheng that in the 2nd Battalion of the 7th Regiment of the 2nd Division led by him, there was still a group of ** personnel. Li Jiansheng hurriedly asked him to call everyone over. After meeting and introducing them one by one, Li Jiansheng really sighed with emotion, these people are all the backbone of this battalion, and among the grassroots officers, including squad commanders, platoons, and company commanders, there are as many as 15, and several soldiers also have some means. In other words, this battalion is basically the first army! No wonder after confirming our identity, this battalion immediately gave up confrontation, presumably for fear of accidental injury! That's fine, after all, they are all revolutionary forces!

At that moment, Li Jiansheng discussed with Luo Tiebing, and asked these squad, platoon, company commanders and those backbone soldiers who were party members to return to the army to stabilize the mood of the soldiers, while Luo Tiebing stayed and participated in Li Jiansheng's command. Several people nodded in agreement and dispersed on their own.

After a while, Xu Zhengfang came over to report the number. Looking at the list, Li Jiansheng was happy. This Renhua County is by no means a rich county, but just from the homes of these few officials, millions of silver dollars have been confiscated. Including 300,000 yuan from the county magistrate's family, 250,000 yuan from the county party secretary's family, 600,000 yuan from the county tax director's family, 430,000 yuan from the county police chief's family, 300,000 yuan from the county defense director's family, and so on. If you include the gold jewelry, gold bars, etc., collected from their homes, it is equivalent to about 700,000 silver dollars. Coupled with the 300,000 yuan of silver dollars in the county's inventory, Li Jiansheng earned 3 million silver dollars alone. As for the grain, including the above-mentioned officials and county stocks, as well as some of the extremely reactionary landlords' homes, the total amount is as high as 12,000 catties -- of course, it is still calculated in the name of sixteen taels!

Li Jiansheng asked Xu Zhengfang to collect this part of the property in a centralized manner, and of course he still left a part of about 280,000 silver dollars, which was intended to be given to the Soviet government established in the future; The other 2,000,000 silver dollars and all the gold items were all collected.

After Xu Zhengfang left, Li Jiansheng discussed with Luo Tiebing about the departure of the troops led by the latter. The two finally decided to reorganize the troops led by the latter into the Shonan Independent Regiment.

After a while, the rest of the regiment was all assembled. Li Jiansheng had already had an idea, and he had already asked those backbone cadres and some company-level officers and veterans to be eliminated and arranged for training separately, while the rest gathered together to listen to his speech. Most of the talk is still the same thing, that is, what he told the captured soldiers of the enemy's 27th and 33rd regiments at the beginning, so that everyone has some understanding of his unit. Of course, this time Li Jiansheng also added some more, nothing more than these points: The Guangdong Army is a revolutionary army, and the starting unit of our Red Army comes from the Ye Ting Independent Regiment of the Guangdong Army, and he was originally in the second battalion of the battalion commander in Jinggangshan. This immediately brought Li Jiansheng closer to these captive soldiers. Li Jiansheng saw that everyone's mood was stable, and struck while the iron was hot: Our army is a force designed to serve the common people; As for our Shonan Independent Regiment, there are also many Cantonese people. When he said this, Li Jiansheng also deliberately pointed out a few Cantonese people who had followed him and were among the first to join his unit -- these people were still city defense soldiers in Pingshi, Lechang, Guangdong, or policemen, or the guardians of big landlords more than a year ago, but now they are real revolutionary fighters.

Obviously, these are working. The remaining soldiers of the 7th Regiment, who were recognized, were successfully mobilized by Li Jiansheng and were a little high. As soon as Li Jiansheng saw it, he had a way in his heart, so he had another plan and asked Luo Tiebing to show up and speak. As soon as I saw that the head of my battalion, or the battalion commander of the battalion next door, was also ** and the Red Army, everyone was completely speechless at this time! This is not over, as soon as Luo Tiebing's words are finished, Li Jiansheng asked again, asking the other party members in the team to stand up and speak. As a result, another group of ** personnel stood up. In addition to the party members of the second battalion who had already seen last night, there were also quite a few party members in the first and third battalions. As soon as I saw these platoon commanders, squad leaders and soldiers who usually lived with me, they were all ** personnel, and everyone was silent.

That's what you want! Next, Li Jiansheng announced on the spot that everyone is welcome to join the Red Army! Those who intend to join the Red Army can sign up to join the army, and unintentionally pay the passage money to go home. As a result, of the 680-odd people, except for more than 290 people from the 2nd Battalion who joined the Red Army in formation, more than 340 of the remaining 390 people were willing to join the Red Army.
