After receiving the order, each man went his separate ways. All work was carried out in an orderly manner. Li Jiansheng personally spoke to the remnants of the 6th Regiment, the city defense soldiers, and the police. He was already up to the task, and as soon as he spoke, everyone fell silent. Because of the appearances of Luo Tiebing and Yang Huwei, as well as the appearances and clear statements of some underground party members, everyone's opinions are one-sided. Except for the two companies led by Yang Huwei, the remaining 280 remnants of the soldiers, except for a very small number who insisted on leaving, all joined the Red Army in formation. Those policemen and city defense personnel, totaling more than 400 people, now look at those who used to do the same work as them, because they joined the Red Army, one by one, they are now making a lot of noise, and they have personally appeared to speak, which really made these people see hope, and they also joined the Red Army together. The newly recruited young farmers in Lechang County voluntarily came over with the local party organization and propaganda organization, and there were nearly 600 people, which made Li Jiansheng happy.

Therefore, as soon as I consulted with several people, I immediately reorganized the army:

First, first of all, replenish the battle damage. In this battle, more than 200 of their own troops were killed in battle, except for about 80 people who were slightly injured and could return to the team after treatment, and those who were seriously injured were recuperated nearby. All units that have suffered battle losses are drawn from the reinforced battalions of the 1st, 2nd and 6th battalions and replenished to full strength, i.e., 350 men per battalion. Fortunately, most of the backbone of the battalions and companies are well preserved.

Second, the Seventh Battalion of the Independent Regiment was set up, with Yang Huwei as the battalion commander, based on the two companies he led, plus a part of more than 100 soldiers of the former 6th Regiment of the Guangdong Army who were willing to join the Red Army, and with all party members of the original 6th Regiment -- including those who were party members, company, platoon, and squad cadres, as well as those who were not yet cadres -- as the main grassroots cadres, and a main battalion with a scale of 350 people.

Third, the eighth battalion of the independent regiment was established, with Ye Zhenglun, former chief of staff of the 7th Regiment of the Guangdong Army and party member, as the battalion commander, and Hong Da, Xia Zanxing's deputy and member of the Lechang County Party Committee, as the instructor. The source of the 8th Battalion includes more than 140 soldiers from the 6th Regiment of the former Guangdong Army, more than 70 police officers from the former Lechang Police Station who newly joined the Red Army, and more than 100 people from the former Lechang Urban Defense Bureau who newly joined the Red Army. It was formed into an independent battalion of 350 people. A number of party members and some grassroots backbone cadres from other battalions of the unit are selected to serve as grassroots cadres of this battalion.

Fourth, the ninth battalion of the independent regiment was established, and the second company of the special service battalion and the eleventh company of the fourth battalion were drawn from the special service battalion to form the backbone of this battalion, and the remaining part of the original Lechang city defense troops who had newly joined the Red Army was about 70 people, as well as 50 young people who had newly signed up to join the army, to form the third company of the independent ninth battalion. Liu Limin, the former deputy commander of the special service battalion, and Liu Ye, an instructor of the fourth battalion, respectively served as the battalion commander and instructor of the ninth independent battalion. The other cadres are selected from among the soldiers by the battalion headquarters itself. The establishment of the independent ninth battalion is 350 people. The remaining 70 or so city defense soldiers, as well as some young people who had newly signed up for the army, were mixed into two companies, namely the second and eleventh companies of the new special agents, which were supplemented into the special service battalion and the fourth battalion respectively.

Fifth, the establishment of the Lechang independent battalion, the source of soldiers from the Lechang local those new young farmers, woodcutters, etc. The battalion commander is Li Xiangyang, member of the Lechang County Party Committee, and the instructor is Zhang Qun, member of the North Guangdong Special Committee. Li Jiansheng selected a part of the soldiers from various units to serve as instructors of the Lechang Independent Battalion.

As for the companies directly under the independent regiment, the size has also increased. For example, the fire support company is originally a reinforced company, and this time, with the weapons and troops obtained from Renhua and Lechang, the whole is the size of a main battalion; As for weapons, even the main battalions such as the special service battalion and the first battalion could not be compared with them, which made several main battalion commanders red-eyed. The engineer company, which turned out to be also a reinforced company, would be almost close to a battalion! The reconnaissance company and the sniper company are still standard formations, although this time some Orion and soldiers with good marksmanship have also been recruited, and the size has increased slightly, but it is not obvious. As for the communications platoon, it finally became independent from the guard communications company and became a communications company on its own. The company commander is Ren Huayun, an underground party member. Fan Chao, the former platoon commander of the communications platoon, was reappointed as the deputy company commander and company instructor of the communications company. The guard platoon was also expanded into a guard company, which was composed of elite personnel drawn from various departments. So far, the number of special companies directly under Li Jiansheng's regimental headquarters has reached seven, exceeding the scale of three battalions.

Only by this time did Li Jiansheng know the scale of the military force at hand:

Main battalion, 11 pcs. The Special Service Battalion, plus the 1st to 9th Independent Battalions, and the 1st Independent Battalion of Guiyang in a separate column.

There are 18 local battalions, 16 in southern Hunan and 2 in northern Guangdong.

There are 7 special companies, including a reconnaissance company, a logistics baggage company, a guard company, a communications company, an engineer company, a fire support company, and a sniper company, with a total strength of about 3 battalions.

In other words, the direct strength of its own independent regiment, 11 battalions and 7 special companies, the total strength has reached 5,000 people. Together with more than 6,300 people in 18 independent battalions on the periphery, the total strength is more than 11,000 people!

Forehead drop god!

It's not that I don't know, it's shocking! Li Jiansheng occasionally calculated, only to find that he was so strong now! This is equivalent to the strength of an army!

Fortunately, Li Jiansheng is relatively sober-minded, and he knows that the combat effectiveness of his unit is not very good, except for his own special service battalion, the first battalion, the second battalion, and the seventh and eighth battalions, which are still passable, I am afraid that the other ones are not very good. Therefore, it was only ordered to intensify training.

Not to mention that Li Jiansheng stepped up the training of troops on the one hand, and stepped up the establishment of the red regime on the other hand, and Yu Hanmou finally learned five days later that his 2nd Division had lost two regiments at once, and he was half angry at the moment and scolded his mother loudly. This is not to blame him, but to blame Li Jiansheng for his conscious concealment and the underdevelopment of traffic information at that time, so that he knew it too late. This news was quickly reported to other departments of the Guangdong army, and Chen Jitang was also very annoyed, and immediately ordered Yu Hanmou to eliminate this group of red bandits. Later, when I learned the details, I lamented and shamelessly, only saying that this red bandit specializes in secret hands and has the ability to fight him openly.

Only two days later, the extremely angry Yu Hanmou forced the staff officers to draw up a battle plan, and Yu Hanmou personally organized the troops, including all the troops under his command, except for one that stayed in Shaoguan, and all 10 of the remaining 12 regiments were dispatched to Lechang and Renhua.

As soon as Li Jiansheng saw this situation, he immediately integrated the Renhua Independent Battalion and the Lechang Independent Battalion, led by Wang Hanying, and constantly attacked the enemy and delayed the speed of the enemy's attack; He consulted with Yun Tian, Luo Tiebing, Yang Huwei, and several others, and decided on the policy of "luring the enemy deep and concentrating superior troops to annihilate the enemy." Yun Tian led the special service battalion and the third battalion to attract the enemy's main force according to the plan, and dragged them deep into the Nanling Ridge, paying attention not to make more contact with the enemy, the purpose was only to lure the enemy and strive to drag down the enemy's main force. Li Jiansheng led the 1st Battalion, the 2nd Battalion, the 9th Battalion, and 6 special companies, Luo Tiebing led the 4th, 5th, and 8th Battalions, and Yang Huwei led the 6th and 7th Battalions as general reserves to accompany the army. Among them, there are three radio stations, which are composed of Yang Huwei, Li Jiansheng, Luo Tiebing, and Yuntian, respectively, and communicate information in a timely manner.

The enemy's advance was very fast, and intelligence soon showed that the 8th Regiment of the Cantonese Army stationed in Sixing, as well as the main force of the Cantonese Army stationed in Shaoguan, almost poured out. As soon as Li Jiansheng deduced a few, he immediately decided that we would definitely not be able to win the main force of the Guangdong army, and we would concentrate our superior forces to fight his 8th regiment, because this regiment was the weakest and the loneliest! Moreover, we also use tactics to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, connect links, encircle Wei and save Zhao and other strategies together, and we are not afraid that it will not hurt to beat him!

After determining this goal, Yuntian's two battalions plus Wang Han's two battalions were responsible for attracting the enemy's main force, while Li Jiansheng, Luo Tiebing, Yang Huwei and a few others led all other forces to march continuously and hurried, heading straight for Sixing.

However, it was said that the 8th Regiment of the Siheung Garrison immediately left the city and came to Beninhwa after receiving the order from the superiors. However, before they could join up with their main forces, they received a report: those red bandits had successfully attacked their station and taken down Siheung. The commander of the 8th regiment, Liu Hui, was so angry that he vomited blood, and on the one hand reported the situation to the division headquarters, and on the other hand, he waited for orders on the spot. However, it was said that Yu Hanmou originally planned to use the main force to capture Lechang and Renhua together, but he knew that the troops were still on the way, but when he learned that Sixing was occupied, he was furious and asked Liu Hui to return to the division immediately. It's not that he trusted Liu Hui to go back with only one group, but he really believed in Liu Hui's ability; Moreover, the reason why the red bandits were able to eat their two regiments in a row before was a sneak attack, if this was done openly, he believed that his troops would not be afraid.
