When you are thirsty, take a sip of water from the kettle; When you are hungry, you grab some fried rice noodles from the cloth bag you carry, moisten the sweat in your heart, pinch it into a ball, and throw it into your mouth. feet, but they do not stop. Li Jiansheng led the special service brigade and the guard regiment day and night to Guanyang Xinwei.

Guanyang is the jurisdiction of northern Guangxi, belongs to the Yangtze River water system, close to the middle reaches of the Yangtze River plain, has a long history, and the county was established earlier. In the 12th year of Emperor Wen of the Western Han Dynasty (168 B.C.), the county was established, called Guanyin County, and in the thirteenth year of Sui Daye (617 A.D.), it was renamed Guanyang County, and now belongs to one of the twelve counties of Guilin City. It has jurisdiction over Guanyang, Huangguan, Wenshi, Dongjing, Guanyin Pavilion, Xishan, Xinjie, Xinwei, Waterwheel and other townships. When Li Jiansheng founded the revolutionary base area in Hunan, Guangdong, Guangxi, and Jiangxi, his troops fought as far as Guanyang and occupied some territory. It's just that because the Gui warlords are strong, Li Jiansheng is unwilling to pay too much for this, so he often takes the initiative to give up. In a few years, as soon as the Gui army was a little looser, his troops were occupied; As soon as the Gui army arrived, his troops withdrew. As a result, this area has changed hands several times. However, the enemy's fifth encirclement and suppression of the Central Soviet Region and the fourth encirclement and suppression of his base area were carried out in a different encroachment policy from the past. Therefore, after the Gui army occupied this area again, he Li Jiansheng never found a suitable opportunity to recapture it.

At present, Li Jiansheng's troops, under the cover of Zeng Zhongsheng's troops, are marching from southwest Jiangxi to northeast Guangxi. For no other reason. Because Li Jiansheng remembered too much the Xiangjiang Campaign, known as the "bloody battle" during the Red Army's Long March, more than 80,000 Central Red Army troops were sharply reduced to more than 30,000 after this battle; As for the "Xinwei Resistance Battle", which is known as one of the three major resistance battles on the way of the Long March, it is also suffocating because of its tragedy and tragedy! Li Jiansheng, who is familiar with history, led his troops to attack from a distance in such a hurry, and did not hesitate to let Zeng Zhongsheng firmly drag the most elite Gui Seventh Army of the Gui Army in southern Hunan with the entire Red Seventeenth Army, just for this blocking battle!

He really didn't want to let this tragic resistance battle repeat itself! Although he knew that this blocking battle had been fought for a few days, and he was afraid that it would be too late for him to come over, he knew that as long as he worked hard, he would always have hope! In his impression, during the Long March of the Central Red Army, the first division to be formed and the whole army was annihilated, which was the Red 34th Division, which served as the rearguard in the Xinwei Resistance Battle, and it was sent to death by mistake after receiving an erroneous telegram from the Central Revolutionary Military Commission! The main force of this force was broken up a day later, on December 1. In a few days, on December 9, the whole army will be annihilated! Therefore, he must rush to Guanyang Xinwei on December 1, the last day of the Xinwei blockade! He will do everything in his power to save this heroic Red Army team!

The troops have not rested for 28 hours in a row. After estimating the distance between here and Xinwei, looking at the tired demeanor of the soldiers, Li Jiansheng had to grit his teeth and not stop. His war horse had already been given to the two girls of the guard regiment, Lao Jue and Shen Ying, and he himself had already carried 5 guns for other soldiers at this time, and at this time he snatched a light machine gun from a light machine gunner and pressed it on his own head. The soldier was already too tired to move, and his expression was a little sluggish, but he mechanically moved forward step by step, and suddenly he was not aware of the lightness on his body, and only after a little clarity did he realize that his weapon was gone. I reacted immediately. Great urgency. When I looked at it again, it was the commander-in-chief and the old army commander who looked at him with a smile. Isn't that his own light machine gun?

How does this work? How can you get the commander-in-chief to carry a gun on his back? Besides, there are enough guns on the commander-in-chief? This soldier wanted to snatch the machine gun from Li Jiansheng's shoulder, but was stopped by Li Jiansheng: "Don't care, go straight ahead, and when you reach the destination, come to me again to get the gun!" The soldier still had to work hard, but finally he couldn't resist the commander-in-chief, and went straight forward with tears in his eyes.

Li Jiansheng looked at the team that had been moving forward, and without saying much, he walked forward with 5 rifles and 1 light machine gun on his back. His personal guard Xu Jinsong had already given up his horse to Shen Pheasant and Yun Bei, and at this time he also learned to be the commander-in-chief and helped others carry guns. However, because he had already received the death order of the head of the guard: "Your task is to protect the safety of the commander-in-chief, and nothing else." Therefore, at the moment he has some flexibility: he does not help a soldier carry a rifle, but only helps a soldier carry a light machine gun. This young man is honest in his heart: we have more guns on our backs, in case the commander-in-chief is in trouble, we are inconvenient to move and rescue is not in a hurry; Ha, let's carry a light machine gun this time, which not only helps our comrades reduce the burden, but also moves freely. This commander-in-chief is in trouble, let's just hit the shuttle, and make sure that the people who are unfavorable to the commander-in-chief will be beaten into a leaky sieve!

The actions of the commander-in-chief made the brigade commanders, regiment commanders, brigade political commissars, regimental political commissars, and other backbone cadres at all levels of the special service brigade and guard regiment follow the example one by one, and they all personally went down to the front line to help the soldiers carry guns. As a result, the speed of the troops increased a little.

The rapid march was another two hours, and Li Jiansheng estimated the distance according to the information sent by the scouts, so that the troops were resting. After the troops rested for two hours, Li Jiansheng's troops moved again. This time, Li Jiansheng personally explained to everyone: Go to the front, Xinwei, two divisions and a regiment of the Gui Army are fighting around the rear guard troops of our Central Red Army! Now, that rearguard force has been crippled, and it is waiting for us to come to our rescue. If we go a little late, there is only one result: this heroic army will be removed from history! Would you like this to happen?

As soon as these words were spoken, the soldiers stopped talking. The spirit of resting and recuperating just now, coupled with Li Jiansheng's provocative words, made the soldiers morale high. After Li Jiansheng gave an order, the large army once again launched a rapid march!

Not to mention that Li Jiansheng's troops are rushing to the direction of Xinwei, but to say that the rear guard units of the Central Red Army in the direction of Xinwei are really like Li Jiansheng's conjecture, like the original trajectory of history, they have been disabled! -- Although the defeat of these heroes does not mean that the Red Army will retreat, the fact is that after continuous bloody battles, the remaining troops here have indeed suffered heavy casualties, and they have been truly disabled!

In fact, the Red Army on the Xinwei position was adjusted before and after. At the beginning, the Red Fifth Division of the Red Third Army occupied the Xinwei position at 4 p.m. on November 27, half an hour earlier than the Gui Army. At 8 o'clock in the morning of the 28th, the Gui Army dispatched six planes to bomb the Red Army position, and the Xinwei Blockade Battle began. After two days of fierce fighting, the Red Fifth Division suffered heavy casualties, one of the three regiment commanders was killed and two were wounded. In the early morning of the 30th, after receiving the order, the Red Fifth Division, which suffered more than 1,000 casualties, rushed to the Guanghuapu position of the Red Fourth Division, and the Xinwei position was handed over to the 18th Regiment of the Red Sixth Division for defense. Since the 18th Regiment was blocking the enemy at a watermill, it did not arrive at Xinwei until 3 p.m. on the 30th, and the Red Fifth Division handed over the defense at 4 p.m. and rushed to Guanghuapu. When the Red 18th Regiment took over, the 1,500 commanders and fighters had not slept for four days and four nights, and the soldiers lay down when they arrived at the position, and there was no time to strengthen the fortifications. After repelling 8 attacks by the Gui army, the Red 18th Regiment suffered more than half of the casualties.

According to the normal trajectory of history, the Red 18th Regiment, which had been waiting for reinforcements for a long time, would retreat in the direction of the ferry the next day, that is, on the morning of December 1. The Red 34th Division, which had been waiting for reinforcements for a long time, also had words of suffering. On the morning of the 30th, the unit had been in the area of the watermill to meet the Red Eighth Army. You must know that the Red Eighth Army is the treasure unit of Li De and Bogu, and it is said to be the most elite, because it is a troop of handsome guys, but it has few battles. As a result, when crossing the Xiangjiang River, as soon as the guns were heard, the regiment was in chaos. Several division leaders of the Red 34th Division were patient, and finally managed to get these precious troops through the pass, and then rushed over, which was a little late. And this "late" ruined the fate of this heroic unit! Because by the time the Red 34th Division arrived at the main position on Guanyin Mountain, the Red 18th Regiment had already retreated, and the Xinwei position was broken through. The Red 34th Division fell into the siege of the Gui army!

At present, the Red 34th Division, under the leadership of division commander Chen Shuxiang and political commissar Cheng Cuilin, is engaged in a fierce exchange of fire with the Gui army.
