Chapter 47: Finally Joining the Main Force (Asking for Recommendations)

In order to transfer the main force to the front line in southern Sichuan as soon as possible and get rid of the main force of the Central Army that is currently encircled and suppressed. The main force of the Red Army, after fighting a beautiful battle of annihilation, also quickly moved to the southern Sichuan region.

Knowing that the two divisions led by Wu Qiwei were annihilated by the Red Army on the front line of Zunyi, Xue Yue, who was sitting in Guiyang, was also a little unable to sit still. It is very clear that Mao Taizu has once again taken command of the Red Army, and he knows very well that Mao Taizu is good at surprise soldiers.

Immediately telegraphed the Yunnan army and the Sichuan army, and Zhou Hunyuan's column, which had also rushed to southern Sichuan, to adopt the method of flanking from the north and south, and be sure to encircle and suppress the main force of the Red Army in the southern Sichuan area. And this situation was also known to the Red Army, which had just crossed Chishui again.

In the face of the strict defense of the Yunnan army and the Sichuan army on the front road, the main force of the central army behind pursued hard. Mao Taizu somewhat understood that the Kuomintang was wishful thinking. But in this way, their plan to break through from southern Sichuan is afraid that it will not be implemented again.

When Mao Taizu discussed with Mr. Zhu and others how to march next. As the last unit of the main force to cross the Chishui, the independent regiment led by He Zhengdao has all changed into the uniforms of the Red Army.

Even those captured Central Army, under the order of He Zhengdao, all changed into the uniforms of the Red Army. If you dare not to change it, it is still the same old routine. Unreasonable, only killing! For a time, the captured Central Army was also afraid of He Zhengdao to death.

Just as the independent regiment crossed the Chishui River, the fourth battalion behind the palace sent someone to ask for instructions on whether to blow up the pontoon bridge on the Chishui River. In this way, the advance of the Central Army behind was stopped. After all, it takes time to build bridges!

He Zhengdao, who heard this request, immediately said: "Order the fourth battalion not to blow up those pontoon bridges." Perhaps, in a while, we will have to pass through here! Okay, the Central Army won't be able to catch up with us for a while! ”

With He Zhengdao's order, the pontoon bridge built by these Red Army troops across Chishui still floated firmly on the Chishui River. After getting in touch with the headquarters, He Zhengdao also began to converge with the main force with the independent regiment.

With the smooth implementation of the three crossings of Chishui, the main force of the Red Army annihilated two divisions of the Central Army and the first division of the Guizhou Army in Zunyi. Such a result made the commanders and fighters of the Red Army also a little excited.

At least every Red Army felt that at the moment they at least did not have to worry about weapons and ammunition. After these battles, the weapons and ammunition they captured were enough for each of them to use a good gun, and a few more bullets in the bullet bag.

When the independent regiment arrived at the place where the main force was resting, He Zhengdao saw from afar that a person with some memories was standing in front and waiting for him with a smile. Yao Shengjun, who was standing beside him, also hurriedly said: "Regiment leader, it's Commissar Mao and Mr. Zhu!" ”

Since the independent regiment got in touch with the main force, Yao Shengjun was worried that they would be looked down upon by the main force. After all, many officers and soldiers of their independent regiment have a history of being captured.

But with He Zhengdao leading them, they won battles one after another, and even sent so many weapons, ammunition, medicine and money to the main force. These things are undoubtedly a timely rain for the main force!

As a doctor of military science of the Republic, He Zhengdao is naturally very clear about these future heads of state. It's just that the heads of state in the memory of later generations are somewhat different from what they see with their own eyes at this moment.

But this did not prevent him from hurriedly stepping forward and saying, "Hello chiefs! He Zhengdao, head of the independent regiment, report for duty! Request to return to the team! ”

Looking at He Zhengdao, who was saluting, Mao Taizu smiled and said, "Zhengdao, can you still recognize who we are?" ”

In the letter that Wang Tianlin had handed over before, He Zhengdao also gave a detailed account of the fact that after he woke up, he forgot a lot of things. This is also why, Mao Taizu will think that He Zhengdao doesn't know them.

As a result, He Zhengdao, who was asked by these words, said with a little embarrassment: "You are Commissar Mao!" I've forgotten a lot of things, but when I wake up, I can still remember some things. You are Mr. Zhu! You are Secretary General Zhou! ”

Looking at He Zhengdao's expression, Mao Taizu also smiled and said: "Boss, it seems that this kid hasn't forgotten all the things!" It seems that you have been blessed by this sickness. What about these people around me? ”

It seems that he intends to test He Zhengdao, whether he really doesn't remember these leaders of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission. As a result, to the surprise of Mao Taizu and many leaders, He Zhengdao really didn't seem to recognize these people.

At this moment, a man with glasses stepped forward and said, "Zhengdao, you really don't know me anymore?" ”

'Report Chief! I'm sorry, but I don't have many memories I can remember. Even on the road, I didn't even know Political Commissar Yao and Senior Commander Chen. However, I remember that I was the commander of the guard company of Commissar Mao. ’

And at this time, Mao Taizu, who heard this, was shocked in his heart, and immediately said eagerly: "Righteous Dao, is the Master Chen you just talked about, is it Shuchun?" He's alive? ”

'Yes! Commissioner Mao, in the county's Xianziling, I met with Senior Commander Chen. Oh! It's also my fault, my department has been in the process of fighting during this time, and I haven't reported this situation to the headquarters. ’

He Zhengdao, who knew the status of this division commander Chen Shuchun in Mao Taizu's heart, soon told all about how he would meet with Chen Shuchun's 34th division. Hearing that the 34th Division had less than one regiment left, everyone was very sorry.

Everyone knows that this army can be said to be a descendant of Mao Taizu. Before, Mao Taizu had no news about the 34th Division, and he also seemed very sad. It's just that this sadness is more hidden.

I heard that the Independent Regiment had radio contact with the 34th Division. It is even known that at present, the 34th Division has built a guerrilla base in Fairy Ridge. When its strength even exceeded one regiment, Mao Taizu also breathed a long sigh of relief.

Only then did he step forward and say: "Righteous way, this is the ********** secretary Zhang Wentian." You kid, when you were in the Soviet District before, you used to learn to write with him! Speaking of which, he's your teacher! ”

'Ahh Hello Chief! I'm sorry, but I can't remember a lot of things after I woke up that time. I beg your pardon! ’

understands that this Secretary Zhang will also be a national leader in the future, and He Zhengdao naturally does not dare to slack off. Under the recommendation of Mao Taizu, He Zhengdao finally got to know again, these Red Army bigwigs who will be famous in the future!

After chatting about these gossips, He Zhengdao also made some introductions to Yao Shengjun to everyone. At this time, Yao Shengjun handed over some information about the independent regiment to Zhou Enlai in the form of official information.

In these materials, there is a detailed process of the detention and rescue of the officers and soldiers of each independent regiment. Of course, some of them died in battle, and even ended up being stranded in the guerrilla areas.

At noon, because of He Zhengdao's contribution to the main force, as well as his familiarity with these leaders. He Zhengdao was also fortunate to have lunch with these chiefs, and finally left time for Mao Taizu and He Zhengdao.

Looking at He Zhengdao, who took out a pack of cigarettes from his body and handed them to himself, Mao Taizu also smiled and said, "I'm really happy to see you come back alive!" Back then, your master handed you into my hands, and I was really worried about being ashamed of him! ”

As a result, He Zhengdao said with some bitterness: "Commissar Mao, I heard Political Commissar Yao say this. It's just that my memory of the master is also pitiful. When I woke up, I was so lost and didn't know who I was.

It wasn't until the fellow took out his general's uniform and my identity card that I realized that I was a soldier of the Red Army. In order to find my identity, I took in those comrades all the way, and now I have finally found you. ”

'Son, I'm sorry for you! ’

Although this is said lightly, Mao Taizu knows very well how difficult it is to do this. It can be said that, in addition to the converted prisoners, because of the rescue of He Zhengdao, the Red Army reduced the losses of three or four thousand people.

Although today the independent regiment has only more than two thousand Red Army backbones. But in addition to the remaining in other guerrilla areas, there were also the Red officers and soldiers of Chen Shuchun's 34th Division. Three or four thousand people, because of He Zhengdao, survived, this credit is not small.

While chatting about these, Mao Taizu said again: "Righteous way, now that you are converging with the main force, I plan to let you continue to serve as the head of the independent regiment." Do you have an opinion? ”

'Nope! Actually, I would like to continue to be the head of this regiment as well. In fact, many officers and men of the Independent Regiment have always had some inferiority. Although I told them that being captured was not a shameful thing, they had not betrayed the Order.

It's just that you know, this kind of thing is very disgraceful to anyone. I also hope that in the future battles, I can lead them to use the description of meritorious service to wash away the shame they have imposed on them.

If I can, I also hope that the Central Committee will not disrupt the current establishment of independent regiments. As for the prisoners who have been escorted, we can also let them out if the other fraternal forces are willing to accept them. ’

Listening to He Zhengdao's words, Mao Taizu also knew that there was still such a situation. After all, for the Red Army, honor was life. Being captured once was, in the eyes of many officers and soldiers with strong self-esteem, indeed a disgrace for them.

With meritorious performance, you can wash away these shames, and it is also the best way to prove yourself. And another meaning in He Zhengdao's words, Mao Taizu also heard it. If you want those prisoners, you can, and if you want those backbones, I'm afraid that He Zhengdao will not do it.

In addition, presumably He Zhengdao doesn't want it either, others think that the equipment of the independent regiment is too luxurious. In the name of supporting fraternal troops, the existing weapons and equipment of the independent regiment were divided.

This is a little clever, Mao Taizu also thinks that this is the emotion that He Zhengdao, who is less than nineteen years old, should show!
