He Zhengdao, who ransacked Jing'an City, did not know that this operation would make He Jian angry. Leaving behind the battle on the front line, he deliberately rushed back to Jing'an City with a large army to personally investigate the robbery of materials.

He Jian also felt unexpectedly that the main force of the Red Army suddenly moved into Guizhou. But He Jian knows better that the 'King of Guizhou' Wang Jialie has always been at odds with his Hunan army. The Hunan army wanted to enter the battle, but Wang Jialie was afraid that he would not agree.

This incident, for He Jian, is equivalent to finding an excuse. In fact, He Jian was not very happy about such a thing as encircling and suppressing the Red Army. But he was equally afraid, and the Red Army would not leave when it entered Shonan.

In particular, the Red Second Front Army, which established the red regime in Xiangxi, made He Jian feel that his interests had been violated. But now, the Red Second Direction Army is suppressed on the front line of Xiangxi, and He Jian feels that he can breathe a sigh of relief.

Now that the main forces of the Red Army have left the territory of Shonan, there are many more foreign troops in Shonan that are not under his jurisdiction. Even if he was the commander of the front-line 'suppression' appointed by Chairman Chiang, He Jian knew very well that those who cooperated with the battle did not like him at all.

This time to encircle and suppress the Red Army that entered the country, what He Jian could really believe was the descendant troops he formed. As for the Gui Army and the Central Army that cooperated with the battle, He Jian also knew that it was not him, the front-line commander, who could really mobilize them.

If it weren't for everyone's goal, I'm afraid this encirclement and suppression would not have gone so smoothly. At present, the Red Army has just left the country, but the situation in southern Hunan has not improved much. The fundamental reason is that the Gui army and the Central Army who are still staying in the territory are still in the territory.

Regardless of whether the troops who sacked Jingzhou City this time were the so-called independent regiment of the Red Second Front Army. He Jian felt that at this time, he should spare his hands and energy to protect the land of Xiangnan.

Whether it is the Gui Army or the Central Army, if you want to make trouble here, you have to ask him if He Jiantong agrees!

The withdrawal of a main force was also a little inexplicable to the Second Front Army, which was surrounded by heavy troops, but it still seemed to be a long sigh of relief. After all, the clouds of the army are still very stressful for them.

According to the latest instructions of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission, the main forces of the Red Army, which had been transferred from the channel, had already entered Guizhou, waiting for an opportunity to find new fighters. The Red Second Front Army operating in Xiangxi also needed to attract firepower to the main force and share the encirclement army of pursuit.

Mr. He, the commander-in-chief of the Red Second Front Army, who had received information from the front, was also very surprised: "He Jian, as the commander-in-chief of the suppression, actually took a main force to Jingzhou. What is he trying to do? ”

In the face of Mr. He's inquiry, Ren Bishi, as a political commissar, said with a little worry: "Mr. He, do you think he will take this main force to pursue our main force?" ”

'Unlikely! The king of Guizhou will not easily let He Jian lead troops into Guizhou. If I'm not mistaken, something must have happened in Jingzhou! You and I both know that there are many factions and warlords in Shonan today.

Some time ago, they worked together to encircle and suppress our main force. But now, our main force has moved to Guizhou, and those guys who have invited to help the field are afraid that they will not leave southern Hunan easily. You say, can he rest assured? ’

Regarding the judgment made by Mr. He, although Ren Bishi felt that there was some truth. But he also knew that they couldn't make any major decisions until they had accurate information.

After all, even if He Jian took away a main force, the pressure in front of the Second Front Army is still very great. The overall revolutionary situation today is really not optimistic for the Red Army, which has embarked on the road to war!

He Zhengdao, who was lurking on the border of Hunan and Guizhou with an independent regiment, according to the prediction of the itinerary of the Long March, the main force of the Red Army at this time should be on the way to attack Zunyi. It is believed that in a few days the meeting that will decide the fate of the Red Army will be held.

He Zhengdao, who had always been reluctant to contact the main force of the Red Army, felt that he would wait for the time of the Zunyi Conference to contact the main force. It was the best time for him and the independent group. For now, it's better to hide your whereabouts.

Although the equipment of the independent regiment is now a luxury that has not been seen since the formation of the Red Army. Light machine guns are equipped with squad-level troops. With such firepower, even against the encircled and suppressed Central Army, He Zhengdao is not afraid at all.

Knowing that the end of Jingzhou City this time should attract He Jian's anger, whether to enter Guizhou next, or continue to fight in southern Hunan, is really a question worth thinking about.

At least one thing He Zhengdao knows very well that what the main forces of the Red Army need most now is time to rest and recuperate. After this bloody battle, the spirit of the commanders and fighters of the Red Army was under tremendous pressure, and it was necessary to take a proper rest.

Thinking of the end of the Zunyi Conference, the Red Second Front Army would act as the main force to contain the coalition forces still stationed in southern Hunan. However, the Central Army, which followed behind, would first advance into Guizhou to continue the battle of encircling and suppressing the Red Army.

Then, the place where he is now is afraid that it will also be the route of the Central Army to Guizhou. If you can be here, you can fight an ambush for the Central Army, I believe it will be a great encouragement and shock to the main force of the Red Army and the Central Army.

Thinking of this, He Zhengdao immediately came over to a meeting with the four main battalion commanders to study the next march route and combat plan. He knew that many officers and men of the Independent Regiment hoped to catch up with the large army as soon as possible.

Therefore, before the meeting, He Zhengdao also said directly: "According to the information we have obtained so far, our main force has entered the territory of Guizhou. Based on the speed of their march, it is speculated that they should be operating near Zunyi at the moment.

If we go after the main force now, I believe it will not be long before we can join the main force. It's just that I have an idea for calling you here today, and that is to have us as the main rearguard force.

I believe that I don't need to say more, everyone should know how many troops have been assembled to encircle and suppress us on the border of Guixiang now. If we can be here, share some firepower for the main force to contain the pursuers, it will be more useful than converging with the main force. ”

Regarding what He Zhengdao said, Xu Renyi, the commander of the second battalion, quickly said: "Regiment commander, with only one of our independent regiments, even if we want to contain the enemy, I'm afraid we won't be able to contain much, right?" Once we are encircled, I am afraid that it will be difficult to break through! ”

Although Xu Renyi knew that He Zhengdao's idea was good. But you have to do what you can!

But He Zhengdao smiled and said: "At present, we have four main battalions and an artillery battalion, and the number of officers and soldiers in the regiment is more than 2,500. None of this really matters, and most importantly, you all ignore one key point, our firepower.

After these few battles, the firepower of each of your battalions is only stronger than that of a division. Even if we encounter a main division of the Central Army, as long as we plan properly, the Central Army will presumably be willing to bow to the upper hand.

In addition, if we want to keep up with the pace of the main force as soon as possible, those infantry guns in the artillery battalion are not suitable for them at all. So many shells, and so many hard-earned artillery, are they just thrown here? ”

'No! These cannons are hard to get, how can they be discarded casually? ’

For the new artillery battalion commander Zhu Definition, those infantry guns are his lifeblood. Even if he knew that marching with these infantry guns would slow down the march of his troops, he didn't want to give them up easily.

Compared with the second battalion commander, they were a little worried that they would be surrounded, and finally fell into a lonely melee. Political Commissar Yao Shengjun said: "Regiment Commander, do you have any ideas? Why don't you talk about the plan first, and then let's discuss it? ”

'Good! If you look at this map, where we are currently located, it is precisely a necessary way for the Central Army to enter your battle. As long as we detect the movements of the Central Army in advance, we can completely fight an ambush here.

If the other side is an army operation, then our independent regiment will definitely not be able to gnaw. But do you think that now in the vicinity of Jingzhou City, there is the main force of the Central Army? It would be good to have a main division. ’

'But a main division of the Central Army, can our independent regiment take it? ’

'Why can't you take it?' There is mental unpreparedness, plus we have an artillery battalion. Just before the attack, crush their artillery units. With the equipment we currently have, it's only a matter of time before they are eliminated.

If he can eliminate the main division of the Central Army before entering Guizhou, I believe that the bald chairman will also suffer for a while. Most importantly, according to the information we have, your army is not dealing with the Hunan army.

It can even be said that your warlord Wang Jialie will not let the Hunan army fight in you at all. And our second front army, the troops under the command of General He Lao, is currently on the front line of Xiangxi, commanding troops to attract the main force of the Hunan army.

This means that our independent regiment, not to mention the reactionary coalition forces that encircled and suppressed, does not know about our existence, even if the main forces are also unaware of our existence. With so many advantages, why don't we find an opportunity here and bite the pursuing Central Army hard? ’

As He Zhengdao came up with a battle plan that was very sure in the eyes of everyone. Since the establishment of the artillery battalion, Zhu Definition, who has really not fought a battle, also hopes to let the artillery battalion show some edge.

The rest of the main battalion commanders, perhaps believing in He Zhengdao's operational command, finally agreed to He Zhengdao's operational plan. At this border of Guixiang, after waiting for the main force of the Central Army to send it to the door, he gave the other party a head-on blow!
