Early in the morning, Chen Yi rushed back from outside, although it was dark and poor after days of hard work, his mental state was very good. Logistics support is the most important thing, and Chen Yi personally leads the logistics work to ensure the logistics supply needs of the front line. Perhaps because the base area was impregnable, and the people's enthusiasm for supporting the front-line operations hardly needed to be mobilized, they spontaneously came in response to every call, forming a huge support army. Today, the people in the Jiujiang base area proudly call the Red Army the Iron Army. After successive victories, Chen Yi was so excited that he couldn't control himself, and he walked into the headquarters with a brisk walk.

Chen Yi was stirred by the joy of victory and was about to shout loudly, when he suddenly found Ouyang Jian lying on the table and sleeping very sweetly. Chen Yi knew that he was under a lot of pressure, and Ouyang Jian was even more under pressure. However, his speech and behavior have never shown clues, and he has always been full of confidence and decisiveness. Chen Yi held back the joy in his heart, glanced at Su Yu and Luo Ronghuan, and turned around and walked out. The three of them walked out of the room and into the courtyard. "The corps commander is too tired, let him sleep a little longer and tell me about the latest battle situation?"

Chief of Staff Luo Ronghuan said: "Song Renqiang reported that the preset battlefield was selected in an area 29 kilometers northwest of Xingzi County, and the enemy's 72nd Brigade could reach the ambush site at noon. "The wonderful ending is so beautiful, there is no doubt that the enemy 72nd Brigade will not be able to escape." Luo Ronghuan continued: "Political commissar, according to the deployment of the corps commander, Han Chu and Chen Mingbu will rest in Yongxiu County for 10 days, and then wave their troops north to attack De'an County, Xiao Ke will lead his troops to be stationed in Fengyun County, and the cavalry regiment will be stationed in Fengyun Town. After Song Ren encircled and annihilated the enemy's 72nd Brigade, he was temporarily stationed in Xingzi County to rest. In this blocking operation, Zhang Shiying's troops suffered the greatest losses, and the corps commander ordered the 17th Division to return to Yunshui County to rest and replenish the troops. In addition, after Zhao Liang's subordinates escorted the prisoners back, they went to Xiushui County to rest and serve as the defense of Hunan. ”

"I have no opinion on the deployment of the corps commander, has the message been sent?" "The order has been given." At this time, a bright figure appeared in the courtyard. I saw Guo Mei wearing a new female soldier skirt Tingting walked in, she greeted everyone with a smile, and then walked straight into the headquarters. Everyone knows what's going on, and no one stands in the way. "In the past few days, Guo Mei has been running to the headquarters every day, taking care of the corps commander." "Miss Guo Mei's love is admirable!" "But the legion commander always has Lu Wenting in his heart."

"The Legion Commander's single-mindedness is admirable, and frankly I can't do that!" Chen Yi sighed. "Political commissar, you are now a standard king, it's time to find a revolutionary partner!" Luo Ronghuan teased. "It's time to find one, you two are not too young, and it's time to think about personal problems. I heard that there are a lot of trendy girls in the field hospital, how about you two are interested? "Commissar, then please!" Su Yu took the opportunity to gain an inch. "Haha, everyone has a love for beauty, and revolutionary soldiers also need revolutionary romanticism. Good! The marriage of the two of you is on me. ”

Inside the house, Guo Mei walked in and found Ouyang Jian sleeping very sweetly on the table, and the guard pony was sitting on the side in a daze. Guo Mei wanted to wake up Ouyang Jian in distress, but held back. She lightly flapped a basin of wash water and placed a towel on the basin. Guo Mei knew that Ouyang Jian liked to be tidy, and he would definitely wash his face when he woke up. Then she went into the inner bedroom and began to quickly tidy up the messy bed. Everything seems so natural, if you don't know the inside story, you will definitely think that the wife is taking care of her husband's daily life.

The Jiujiang base area entered the endgame stage, the main force of the Red Army on the southern front began to exert force, and the upsurge of the counteroffensive was in full swing. At dusk that day, in a simple courtyard in a mountain village in Ruijin, Runzhi and Zhu De were sitting under a tree in the courtyard, reading the battle report from Jiujiang. After the big joy, the two were in a stable mood. At this time, a telegraph operator came in to report: "Report, the 5th Army Corps reported that Song Renqiang commanded the 15th Division to set up an ambush in an area about 29 kilometers northwest of Xingzi County, and in one fell swoop, he completely ate the 72nd Brigade of the 24th Division of the enemy, and the commander of the 72nd Brigade was captured. ”

"Haha, Ouyang Jian is full of oil, it's really greedy. In the end, the 72nd Brigade was annihilated, and the situation in Jiujiang became clear. Zhu De's eyebrows rippled with a smile. Runzhi also said with a smile: "Lao Jiang's blockade of Ouyang Jian was declared bankrupt, and the enemy's 57th Division, 10th Division, 12th Siege Brigade and 2nd Cavalry Division in Nanchang were firmly contained. The situation is very good, and the next step is when we can show what we can do. I guess Lao Jiang will not give up, he will definitely try his best to get back face on the southern front. At present, we have made small gains, the first army has eaten Zhou Zhiqun's new 14th Brigade, the third army has eaten Sun Lianzhong's 80th brigade, and we have cut off two branches of the enemy, but the enemy has not broken his muscles and bones. ”

Zhu Dedao: "Lin ordered the independent regiment to advance to Zhangzhou disguised as a large force, and put on a posture of marching to Guangdong, and the main force of the enemy's right army group went south. Lin led the main force to secretly go north to capture the fighters, and now the main force has entered Shaxian County, Sanming Region. The three legions proposed to attack Ning Dudu, and Peng Dehuai's appetite was very great. According to the Dark Arrow report, our men basically controlled the 27th Division, and fought for the 27th Division to revolt on the battlefield, and now it is inappropriate to target the 27th Division. "I think it is possible to hit the attention of the 27th Division. Since the 27th Division was transferred from the northwest to Jiangxi, the water and soil have not been adapted, and the officers and men have complained. According to internal information, the combat attrition of the 27th Division has already reached two-fifths. In addition, the chief officer Gao Shuxun is not a rare opportunity. ”

"You mean to force the 27th Division to revolt ahead of schedule, good idea! The strength of the 27th Division is 17,000 people, He Yingqin would not have thought that we would target the 27th Division, if the 27th Division revolts on the battlefield, the enemy's heavy encirclement and suppression in southern Jiangxi will be a complete failure. Come! A combat staff officer came over and pulled out a notebook for shorthand. Telegraphed Peng Dehuai and agreed to besiege Ningdu. In addition, he conveyed the details of the 27th Division's preparations for the uprising to Peng Dehuai, and secretly contacted the 27th Division through hidden arrows. Runzhi continued: "If the 27th Division declares an uprising, I am ready to let Xiao Jinguang serve as the political commissar!" "I have no opinion!"

In Fujian, the 1st, 3rd, and 5th main divisions, the main force of the 1st Army Corps, including the guard regiment, entered the Shaxian area in the early morning after two days and nights of secret trekking, and the main force of the enemy army had been left behind by them. In the early morning, in a dense forest, the officers and men of the unit were resting. At this time, the corps commander Lin, political commissar Zhu Yunqing, and chief of staff Tan Zhenlin were discussing. "Dark Arrow reported that the new 154th and 155th Brigades of the Han Deqin Division of the enemy's 52nd Division were dragging behind. These two new brigades were reorganized from the local security regiments, and their combat effectiveness is relatively weak, so I think we can target them. Lin nodded, as if he had made up his mind.

Two days later, at dusk, the 154th and 155th Brigades were surrounded in Gaoqiao Town, Shaxian County. The 1st and 3rd Red Divisions and the Guard Regiment were responsible for encirclement and attack operations, and the 5th Division was responsible for blocking the outer line. Han Deqin was unlucky, and his two brigades were eaten by Ouyang Jian while sitting back and quiet by the Gan River. After the new brigade filled the vacancy, the commander-in-chief Chen Mingshu, in order to take care of him, asked him to follow the rear of the main force to serve as an assistant defense. Shocked to hear that his two newly formed brigades were suddenly surrounded, Han Deqin looked up to the sky and sighed, why did the Red Army always have trouble with him.

There is only one brigade in hand, and it is close at hand and does not dare to rescue. After the commander-in-chief Chen Mingshu learned of the situation, he quickly ordered the main force to return to help. Only two hours after the battle began, the guard regiment, which was the main attacker, took the lead in breaking through and attacking the town. The sound of gunfire shook the sky, and the shouts of killing shook the sky. Hao Lei led the regimental headquarters into the town, and the troops have developed in depth," reported to the regiment commander, and Hao Yi, commander of the special operations battalion, told him that he led the special operations battalion to advance in depth and smash the enemy's brigade headquarters. "Damn, this kid is more anxious than I am. Report to the corps headquarters that our unit has taken the lead in assaulting into the town and is developing in depth. ”

Hao Yi led the special operations battalion to attack and rush, and soon assaulted near the headquarters of the 155th Brigade. The enemy turtle retreated into the courtyard, and in less than half an hour, the powerful special operations battalion captured the brigade headquarters, and the commander of the 155th brigade was killed. The battle ended around midnight. After dawn, the vanguard of the 60th Division rushed to Gaoqiao Town, and saw a mess everywhere, where there was still the shadow of the Red Army.

On the way to continue the battle, Hao Yi said excitedly: "Regiment commander, this battle is too enjoyable, we only took 6 hours to solve the battle after destroying two enemy brigades, at this rate, we are afraid that we will have to defeat 5 enemy divisions in a month." ”

"You kid this is a whimsical idea, I think you are carried away by victory, the enemy is a fool, you have forgotten the original teachings of Commander Ouyang, you must not get carried away. I estimate that the continuous combat units are too tired, and I am afraid that they will have to rest for a while. "Aren't I happy, how can I forget the words of Commander Ouyang. This time, the commander of the Ouyang Army made a big move, good guy, two integrated divisions plus an integrated brigade, it was too enjoyable. At this time, a war horse caught up from the rear, "Report to Commander Lei, Commander Lin ordered your troops to secretly attack Minqing to the east, and the army headquarters should rest in Minqing for 5 days!" ”

At the headquarters of the 5th Army Corps in Yunshui County, Chief of Staff Luo Ronghuan was reporting the situation, and an operational staff officer came in with a telegram in his hand and said: "Report, the headquarters of the Front Army is calling!" Ouyang Jian was speechless for a moment when he took the telegram and checked it, his expression was a little weird, Chen Yi took the telegram and looked at it and said in astonishment: "Commander Peng led his troops to surround Ningdu, good guy is really generous." The enemy's 27th Division has 17,000 people, and this piece of fat is too big. If the objectives of the campaign cannot be achieved, the enemy forces will surround them from all sides, and if the troops are forced to withdraw from the battle, it is very dangerous to be surrounded on a large scale. ”

Ouyang Jian was a little confused, the 27th Division was originally going to revolt, and Zhao Bosheng, the chief of staff of the department, was a member of the Communist Party, and there were many secret party members in the department, and he basically controlled two-thirds of the strength. It is impossible for the headquarters to be unaware of these circumstances, but why is such a military action being taken? Obviously, due to its own birth, the butterfly effect is further revealed. It is certain that the headquarters made arrangements in advance and used military means to force the 27th Division to revolt, and the headquarters believed that the 27th Division was fully equipped with the conditions for an uprising. Thinking of this, Ouyang Jian was relieved and suddenly realized.

Seeing that Ouyang Jian was silent, Chen Yi asked, "Legion Commander, could it be that you have a different opinion. Ouyang Jian said with a smile: "Political commissar, this is a clever move by the headquarters. At present, the officers and men of the 27 th Division are not accustomed to the soil and water, and the natural combat attrition has reached two-fifths. In particular, the vast number of officers and soldiers were far away from their hometowns and were unwilling to work for Lao Chiang anymore. In addition, the officers and men of the northwest themselves were resistant to Lao Chiang, and the opportunity was rare, and the conditions for the 27th Division to revolt on the battlefield were met. Another most important point is that our party has a strong strength in the 27th Division, and there are our people from the top to the bottom, and it can be said that they have controlled four-fifths of the troops. ”

Chen Yi was pleasantly surprised: "I see, this is forcing the 27th Division to revolt in advance, which is really exciting good news." Suddenly, Ouyang Jian had an idea and said, "Send a report to the headquarters immediately and suggest ······." ”
