In just two days, the three cities of Dayi, Xinyi, and Qionglai controlled by Yang Sen fell. The prosperity of the independent column made Liu Xiang, who led the army back to Chengdu, also feel surprised, and strictly ordered the defenders of Chengdu to prepare to defend to the death.

In addition, Yang Sen, who was angry, also knew that it was useless to be angry at this time. The main division of Chongzhou was also strictly ordered to prepare for battle with the Red Army. In any case, Chongzhou can't be lost.

If he really let the Red Army take his Chongzhou, Yang Sen also knew very well that he was only afraid of withdrawing from the stage of the Sichuan Army. With no territory, what can he do to feed these troops under him?

It's just that to Liu Xiang and Yang Sen's surprise, Chengdu and Chongzhou, which seem to be at their fingertips in front of the independent column, are not interested in He Zhengdao at all. The main forces of the two divisions that returned to Dayi immediately returned to Baoxing.

Even the third division of the independent column, the vanguard began to advance towards the Aba area. Looking at this posture, it is clear that he wants to join forces with the main force that entered Aba. But this kind of move still can't dispel Liu Xiang and Yang Sen's vigilance.

According to the information they received, the troops under the name of the independent division of the Red Army were very good at fighting unexpected battles. It seemed that the vanguard of this division had moved, but the two main divisions that had entered Dayi had disappeared.

Not bad! The information that Liu Xiang and Yang Sen received was that the two Red Army divisions that had left Xinxi and Qionglai had joined up with the Red Army in Dayi. Overnight, they disappeared from the sight of their intelligence officers.

The information that can be known is that the materials collected by the Red Army from the three cities are being continuously escorted to Baoxing City at this moment. It was the news of these two main divisions that made the Sichuan army around Chengdu very nervous.

It seems that they are all worried that these two main divisions of the Red Army, which have disappeared, may appear in the place they are defending at any time. In order to ensure that this would not happen, the various cities and Sichuan armies in the western Sichuan Plain could be said to be in full array.

He Zhengdao, who was returning with the logistics troops, received the information from the reconnaissance unit and said happily: "It seems that we stabbed this knife and really scared the Sichuan army." If it weren't for their quick return, I would really like to hit Chengdu! ”

Listening to He Zhengdao's emotion, Wang Tianlin also smiled and said: "Commander, it is already very good that we can achieve such a record. If we really fight Chengdu, it is estimated that Liu Xiang will also play with us!

Although we have the main force of three divisions, compared with the Sichuan army's numerical and geographical advantages, we actually have little chance of victory. If we can't capture Chengdu in a short time, we risk being surrounded by the Sichuan army.

Now that the benefits have been reaped, you should also accept it when you see it. In any case, this time we advanced into the western Sichuan Plain, and also let the Sichuan army know how serious the consequences of participating in the encirclement and suppression of the Red Army were. At least Yang Sen didn't dare to send troops to participate in the encirclement and suppression operation anymore. ”

In Wang Tianlin's view, He Zhengdao's calmness is undoubtedly what a commander needs to have. Even if he is afraid, he also wants to capture Chengdu. But he also knows that it won't be easy to do that.

It is undoubtedly the wisest choice to accept it now. Even thinking of He Zhengdao's last trick, Wang Tianlin also felt that there would be some quarrels within the Sichuan army in the future.

The so-called yin trick is actually a yang scheme. When he withdrew from Qionglai, He Zhengdao sent a telegram to Deng Xihou. The general meaning is that I am very sorry for handing over Tianquan City to Liu Wenhui.

It was only because the Red Army was in dire need of supplies and funds that such a move was compelled to be made. In order to express its apology, the independent column was willing to hand over Qionglai City to Deng Xihou's troops to receive it without paying any fees.

took Yang Sen's territory as a favor, but it was still the territory that Deng Xihou wanted to take. Knowing that He Zhengdao was not kind, Deng Xihou was still very fast, and sent a main force regiment to enter Qionglai under the banner of asking for help.

This also means that when Yang Sen comes back, if he wants to get Qionglai City back, I'm afraid it won't be so easy. What's more, He Zhengdao made it clear that he could sell some of the captives to Deng Xihou cheaply.

It's just that the deal will have to wait until the captives are escorted back to Baoxing, and the price is also very favorable. Deng Xihou, who had suffered a lot of losses before, was even ashamed of scolding He Zhengdao for being shameless for such a transaction, but he still agreed to this private transaction.

lost the whole city for a day, in exchange for a Qionglai, Deng Xihou still felt that it was worth it. But the problem is, when Janssen comes back, he will probably jump to his feet! But in Deng Xihou's opinion, this is the Qionglai City that he led his troops to recover.

If Yang Sen wants to take it back, he needs to pay a sufficient price. At least in Deng Xihou's opinion, the money he spent on the independent column this time must be earned back from Yang Sen.

The retreat speed of the independent column was also not slow, and the two main forces that disappeared in the eyes of the Sichuan army were actually in the process of retreating. It's just that they all retreated very carefully according to He Zhengdao's orders.

Unable to find their whereabouts, the Sichuan army naturally had to be worried. Everyone was worried, and when they saw the Red Army soldiers approaching the city, they saw it coming. In this case, Yang Sen, who is afraid of returning to help, is more careful the closer he gets to his own territory.

It seems that he is also worried that he led the troops back to help him fall into the ambush circle arranged by the independent column. If he is really ambushed, even if he wants to break through successfully, his strength is estimated to be greatly damaged. When the time comes, what will you do to wrestle with Liu Xiang and them?

After He Zhengdao and Xiao Jinguang converged, the vast amount of supplies and recruits escorted the troops, even if Liu Wenhui and Deng Xihou were red-eyed, they could only watch the independent column leave, and they didn't dare to act rashly.

After Xiao Jinguang led the recruit brigade and left Baoxing City. Deng Xihou sent a main division to receive Baoxing, looking at the logistics escort troops of the independent column in the distance, he seemed a little moved.

This time with the arrival of the independent column, Deng Xihou and Yang Sen suffered the heaviest losses. If you can grab the materials of the independent column, I believe you can also make up for the shortfall in your own materials and wealth.

In the face of this proposal of the main division commander, Deng Xihou finally replied: "The main force is not allowed to go out, just send troops to follow them and send them out of the defense area." If the Red Army dares to do this, there must be a reason for doing so. ”

After receiving Deng Xihou's reply, the main division commander felt somewhat that the army commander seemed to be frightened by the Red Army. Not long after the tracking troops were dispatched, several officers and soldiers who fled back brought him a very fortunate news.

'Master, we've been disarmed!' Oh, my God! Fortunately, we didn't send a large force in pursuit, otherwise we would have been ambushed. Behind their material corps, the Red Army arranged at least one main division! ’

The main division commander who heard this also felt very lucky. If he really led the main force to pursue the seemingly defenseless logistics units of the Red Army, then the most likely outcome would be to steal chickens and rice.

When the commander of the main division reported the situation, Deng Xihou was also very happy and said: "I knew that if the Red Army dared to escort supplies with such a swagger, there must be a follow-up." The two main divisions of the Red Army, which had disappeared, really set up an ambush.

If we really attack their idea of materiel, it is estimated that we will lose the main force of another division. Now it seems that this independent column is really going to Aba to join the main forces of the Red Army. That's fine, and we can breathe a sigh of relief. ”

There is a saying that 'it is easy to please God and difficult to send God', and in the face of the arrival of the great god of the Red Army, Deng Xihou also seemed very helpless. In particular, the independent column broke through the three cities in his defense area in a row, which made Deng Xihou see the combat effectiveness of the Red Army.

In contrast, he and Yang Sen were also brothers and sisters, and both were sacked by the independent column in three county towns with considerable taxes. As for the loss of troops, Yang Sen suffered a little more than him.

By the time the independent column arrived in the Moraine area, the two main divisions, which had been serving as the rear guard of the logistics army, finally appeared. Knowing that the two main divisions that disappeared had been following behind the independent column, Yang Sen also seemed very happy.

If he really sent troops to pursue, it was very likely that he would be ambushed. On the contrary, He Zhengdao, who had entered the moraine, said a little depressedly: "These guys, their courage is too small!" Why don't they eat such a piece of fat? ”

Listening to He Zhengdao's words, Xiao Jinguang also smiled and said, "Commander, they are probably scared by you." This time, we swept through the six cities, and our troops were not lost, but they increased a lot. How dare they fight again? ”

'Alright! Since they won't come, let's meet up with the headquarters according to the established plan! Send a telegram to the headquarters and inform me of the location of our department. In order to avoid unnecessary conflicts, we also asked the headquarters to send troops to meet the arrival of our unit. ’

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Jinguang immediately said, "Commander, what do you mean?" ”

'Nothing! Just to be on the safe side! It's just that according to what the reconnaissance troops have learned, the intelligence of the Red Fourth Front Army today is also not optimistic. You also read the telegram from the headquarters before, don't you smell something?

If the Red Fourth Front Army really agreed to go north, the advance force should have already been on the road at this time, instead of continuing to stay in the Huili area to rest. Actually, that's why I led my army to converge! I hope my worries are too much! ’

Is it really redundant?

At least in He Zhengdao's view, history is still history after all, and its stubbornness still exists. Before meeting with the headquarters, He Zhengdao didn't want to, but he also needed to have a little more heart. The Red Army, it really can't stand the toss!
