Chapter 10 Xiao Zhuge Troubles
Historically, the Red 18th Regiment was surrounded and annihilated by the Gui Army in Gulingtou on the afternoon of December 1, 1934. The Gui army then pursued the Red 8th Army and routed the division. Now thanks to the appearance of Li Jiansheng, the situation has changed greatly.
First of all, all the members of the Red Third Front Army followed, first concentrated their forces to skillfully annihilate the artillery battalion of the 44th Division of the Gui Army, and then used the captured artillery to counter the 44th Division, causing huge losses to the 44th Division; Then, with the cooperation of the Red 34th Division, the 44th Division of the Gui Army was completely annihilated, thus successfully rescuing the Red 34th Division, which was completely wiped out in history. Subsequently, the two divisions worked together to rescue the Red 18th Regiment and annihilate the two main regiments of the 24th Division of the Gui Army. Next, the old Red Eighteenth Army Corps, with the cooperation of the newly formed Red Fifteenth Army Corps, completely annihilated the rest of the 24th Division. At this point, the two divisions commanded by Xia Wei of the 15th Army of the Gui Army now have only some units directly under the military headquarters and an empty military headquarters. Xia Wei became a real "commander of the Air Force".
In this battle, the Gui army was not able to completely eliminate the Red 34th Division and the Red 18th Regiment, but instead allowed the Red 18th Regiment to join forces with the Red 34th Division, and successfully joined Li Jiansheng's leading troops of the Red Third Front Army. The Red 34th Division and the Red 18th Regiment withdrew from the battle ahead of schedule, and received sufficient supplies, and then Li Jiansheng was so reorganized, and after the merger of the two divisions, a new corps was formed. To this day, the 34th Red Division and the 18th Red Regiment are probably the best equipped and the only first-class main force with sufficient food and ammunition and heavy firepower composed of mortars and heavy machine guns in the entire Central Red Army, and are no less than the combat strength of the various units of the Red Third Front Army. The fate of these two heroic units has been quietly rewritten by Li Jiansheng.
Thinking about his first successful step, Li Jiansheng was also a little proud. You know, so far, he insists on keeping the names of these two heroic units, just to let future generations remember these two heroic troops! After rescuing these two troops, Li Jiansheng was thinking about how to use the opportunity to contain the enemy, so that the logistics organs, baggage troops, hospitals, etc. could pass through the enemy's blockade smoothly, so he took advantage of the enemy's weakness and even made a clever plan, and finally let that little Zhuge also fall for a trick, not only was he scared once, but after losing two divisions and a regiment, he could only watch Li Jiansheng's various units pass the test smoothly, but he only dared to shrink the troops, but he didn't dare to follow too closely!
God knows, when will this Li Jiansheng, who does not play cards according to common sense, set up a real and false set for him to drill Comrade Lao Bai? You know, his old white comrade is nicknamed Xiao Zhuge , and he is usually the best at weaving cages for others to drill, and once upon a time was put on the table by this young red bandit Li Jiansheng? Later historians believe that Comrade Lao Bai has never been afraid of the Red Army, but he has always been a great enemy to Li Jiansheng's subordinates. As far as Comrade Lao Bai is concerned, he once made Lin Dashuai suffer a big loss, although he was later pulled back by Lin Dashuai, but in front of Li Jiansheng, he never flattered him, so he was more or less psychologically shadowed! Of course, this is a later story, so I won't say much about it for the time being.
However, it was said that after Li Jiansheng led the two corps of the Red 15th and 18th Army Corps to completely annihilate the main force of the 24th Division of the Gui enemy, he saw that the two corps of the Red 16th and 17th Red Army, the main forces of the Red Third Front Army, had come up under the leadership of Huang Su, the political commissar of the Front Army, Zeng Zhongsheng, the commander of the 17th Red Army, and Ji Zhentong, the commander of the 16th Red Army. Thinking that there was still a war on the edge of the Xiangjiang River in front of him, he did not meet with these chiefs, but directly sent a telegram to order the Red Eighteenth Army Corps to be the leading force, the Red 15th and Red Sixteenth Army Corps to be in the center, and the Red Seventeenth Army Corps to be the rearguard, and to step up the march to the Xiangjiang River, and strive to catch up with the Central Red Army as soon as possible!
After the order was given, Li Jiansheng got on his horse and went straight forward under the escort of several guards. After this series of victories, Li Jiansheng's troops captured many horses. As a result, several female guards such as Lao Jue, Shen Pheasant, Shen Yu, Yun Bei, and Yun Lei also had one person and one horse. What excites Li Jiansheng the most is that this time not only the baggage and materials of the two divisions of the Gui Army were collected, but also more than 60 war horses were collected, which initially had the scale of a cavalry company. He didn't have time to find a suitable candidate, so he asked Shao Qianqian, who was standing beside him at the time to salute him and greet him, and who he rescued from someone's new house that year, to temporarily serve as the commander of this cavalry company.
I have to say that directly appointing a regiment commander as a company commander of a new branch can only be done by a fool like Li Jiansheng. However, he is a fool and a fool, because Li Jiansheng was in a hurry at the time, and the order was issued temporarily, and the original intention was just to let this Shao Qianqian be temporarily in charge. But unexpectedly, this Shao Qianjin was rescued from under the gun by Li Jiansheng, and from then on he only recognized Li Jiansheng, so Li Jiansheng gave him the task, which must be completed no matter what. What's even more unexpected is that this Shao Qianjin originally studied cavalry majors, and he was the junior brother of Huang Su of the Red Third Front Army, which was a serious military professional! Therefore, Li Jiansheng's wrong order was a mistake, and it was right!
Not to mention that Li Jiansheng left the cavalry company that was only eight characters to Shao Qianqian, and continued to march forward on horseback, but Niu Dali, the commander of the Red 5th Division, who was walking in the front, sent news that their troops had searched and advanced to the vicinity of Fenghuangzui, and heard a burst of gunfire in front, and had sent a reconnaissance company to ask for orders from the headquarters. The Red 5th Division was Li Jiansheng's earliest starting unit, and the division commander Niu Dali and political commissar Bai Kaishan were Li Jiansheng's old subordinates and brothers. The Red 5th Division was also the main force of the Red Eighteenth Army Corps, and was appointed by Li Jiansheng as the leading force at this moment, but he did not expect to encounter such a situation. It stands to reason that they should report to the corps commander Yun Tian first, but they all know that Yun Tian is currently leading the main force of the Red Eighteenth Army as the leading force of the second echelon, but Li Jiansheng, the commander-in-chief of the front army, has been following the forefront, so he did not report to Yun Tian, but directly told the information to their young old leader Li Jiansheng.
When Li Jiansheng heard this, he remembered it for a while, and immediately guessed that the gunfire in front of them was that eighty percent of the troops of the International Division of the Young Communist Party were fighting with He Jian's troops of the Hunan Army. sighed in his heart, it was really difficult for those little ghosts, and he hurriedly gave an order: "If my guess is correct, the Red Army troops of the International Division of the Young Communist Party are in front of them to stop the Hunan army from attacking. Your unit immediately plunges into battle, and you must think of ways to rescue the International Division of the Young Communist Party! He also estimated the distance between himself and Niu Dali's place and his travel speed, estimated that he would be able to reach the battlefield in 20 minutes, and then said: "I will arrive at the scene in 20 minutes!" He gave the order, and with another wave of his whip, he urged the horse forward. The personal guard company immediately followed with a whip. A few female generals couldn't, only Lao Jue and Shen Ying followed. Several others also tried, but finally gave up and marched with Yuntian's large army.
