(PS: This book is on Sanjiang!) I also ask all the book friends who have walked through the book to work hard to enter the Sanjiang page and vote for your precious vote for the book Mosquito. Thanks! )

The independent division, which set out from Shuicheng, marched towards the Liupan area almost without disguise. Originally, in the Liupan area, there were still some garrisons. But in the face of the arrival of the independent division, these garrisons have long since disappeared.

Even many local tyrants and inferior gentry who were worried about being caught out by the Red Army for public trial also packed up their family belongings early and went out to avoid the limelight. In this case, not to mention encircling the independent division, there are no troops that will even collide with the independent division.

As for the encirclement and suppression troops trailing behind, compared to the rapid advance of the independent division. However, they were worried that the rearguard troops of the independent division would be ambushed, for fear that if they were not careful, they would become the target of an ambush by the independent division.

He Zhengdao, who was successfully stationed in the Liupan area, looked very leisurely, and ordered the independent division to rest here for a day. In his view, it is also very important to maintain the abundant combat effectiveness of the officers and men of the independent division.

During this time, the newly formed prisoners who followed the independent division on the road also felt that the independent division was different from their old troops. You don't have to worry about going hungry for three meals a day, and you can eat a meal of meat once in a while. This treatment is simply better than that of the Central Army!

It was this kind of food and security that slowly calmed down the mentality of these newly recruited captives. From time to time, prisoners of the logistics unit were incorporated into the new corps and received corresponding political transformation and study.

The independent division, which rested for a day in six sets, soon continued to hit Wei Ning again. Although in the Weining area, there was a garrison brigade. But in the face of the independent division that came with victory, the resistance consciousness of this garrison brigade was equally pitiful.

Without waiting for the arrival of the main force of the independent division, the reconnaissance battalion alone cooperated with the main force of the independent division and successfully disarmed the garrison brigade. Xue Yue, who learned the news, slapped the table angrily.

In Xue Yue's opinion, if a garrison brigade fights well, it can block the independent division for at least one day, right? As a result, without waiting for the arrival of the main force of the Independent Division, he let a regiment of the Independent Division disarm, how could he not be angry?

Long Yun, who also received Chairman Chiang's strict order, saw this situation, but quietly ordered the troops heading for the Yunnan-Sichuan border to slow down. In his opinion, the Red Army's march into Yunnan really scared him enough.

At the moment, it was difficult to send away the main force of the Red Army, and he also did not want to go head-to-head with this independent division. really crippled his descendants, and in the future, he was afraid that Yunnan, which he guarded, would become Chairman Chiang's bag again.

Before leaving, He Zhengdao told Yao Shengjun that he would beat the troops through this kind of long-distance march. Let the independent division slowly sharpen those newly recruited captives in this kind of march, hoping to successfully transform them as soon as possible.

When the main force of the independent division entered Weining City, it did not continue to repair, but directly selected a group of prisoners and directly incorporated them into the logistics brigade. As a result, the size of the independent division officially exceeded 25 thousand people.

Four infantry regiments, each of which now has four main battalions and one recruit battalion, all numbered nearly five thousand people. This kind of expansion of troops, which is getting more and more fighting, makes every commander and fighter of the independent division very excited.

Even the headquarters, which received the telegram, was equally pleased. Even, Mao Taizu had an idea of whether to expand the independent division into a corps. After all, the size of the independent division today is not much different from the strength of the headquarters.

In view of this situation, He Zhengdao, who received the telegram, still calmly called the headquarters: "Although the number of soldiers in the independent division has reached more than 25,000 at present, the number of prisoners is too large, and it is not appropriate to expand the establishment.

After joining up with the headquarters, the independent division needs to reduce its personnel in order to ensure the strongest combat effectiveness of the independent division. As for the prisoners recruited along the way, it would be more appropriate to divert them to other legions. ”

This practice of giving up promotions made many Red Army commanders who learned the news feel somewhat incredible. But after comprehensive consideration, Mao Taizu also gave up the idea of upgrading the independent division to a corps.

In any case, He Zhengdao's combat exploits along the way are still enough to be promoted to a corps commander. It's just that his age is still somewhat bruised. If you promote too quickly, it will be unfair to other Red Army commanders.

It's just obvious that with the growing of the independent division. Now Mao Taizu is in the position of commander of the Red Army, and he is as stable as Mount Tai. Everyone knows that He Zhengdao is Mao Taizu's henchman.

The independent division starting from Weining, the next area to advance was the prestige area at the junction of Yunnan, Sichuan and Guizhou provinces. In later generations, it was renamed Zhaotong. This is also the territory controlled by the Yunnan army.

Before the troop set off, He Zhengdao also sent a reconnaissance battalion to serve as the main force and enter the prestige area in advance to carry out reconnaissance. The main force of the 1st Regiment and the 2nd Regiment followed and advanced into the prestige area to clear the defensive forces of the Dian army in this area.

As for the rest of the independent division, it was relatively easy, following behind the two armies to advance into prestige. After entering the prestige realm, He Zhengdao and Yao Shengjun seemed to breathe a long sigh of relief.

'Commander, we have finally walked out of Guizhou! ’

'Yes! It's not easy to come down this way! When they entered Weixin City, the whole division rested for two days. I still really want to see if Long Yun really dares to fight us. ’

According to the reconnaissance intelligence, the blocking force from Kunming seems to have arrived a little later than the independent division. In this case, in He Zhengdao's opinion, I am afraid that Long Yun intends to do so. If he leaves, the Dian army will ignore it.

If he doesn't leave, I'm afraid that Long Yun will really be in a hurry. But for He Zhengdao, it is necessary for the independent division to take a good rest before meeting with the main force. After all, such a long march is also very tiring!

Because the main force of the Yunnan army had not yet arrived, the Dian army stationed in the prestige area could only resist a little before being disarmed by the independent division. In this way, He Zhengdao and others stationed in prestige are extremely relaxed.

Arriving in the prestige area, looking at this relatively wealthy area, He Zhengdao found Yao Shengjun and said, "Political commissar, how many oceans do we have at present?" Take advantage of the rest time to let the logistics department purchase some supplies! ”

In the face of He Zhengdao's suggestion, Yao Shengjun was also very curious: "Division commander, the materials we currently have are sufficient. Is it necessary to spend more money on supplies? ”

'Yes! After entering Sichuan, I am afraid that it will be a little difficult to find such a prosperous area. Again, as before, a large number of fur products and bacon were purchased.

For us and the main force, materials are more important than the ocean at present. With supplies, we can ensure the supply of food for the troops. If I am not afraid that you will not do it, I would like to send another ocean so that the officers and soldiers can have a good rest! ’

As a political commissar, Yao Shengjun, although he didn't understand He Zhengdao, why he had to prepare so many supplies. In his opinion, the more supplies are purchased, the more troops will need to be escorted. If you go on the road with money, it's relatively easy!

It's just that Yao Shengjun, who has been partnered with He Zhengdao for a long time, somewhat understands that He Zhengdao's vision is farther than him. At present, a large number of materials in the independent division have been stored, and many of them have not been used, which makes Yao Shengjun somewhat puzzled.

But if you don't understand it, since this is He Zhengdao's order, then he can only resolutely carry it out. As a result, such a large purchase made the businessmen who did business in the prestige area naturally made a lot of money.

Although there are still local tyrants and inferior gentry, they have not escaped the Ming and righteous examples of the Red Army. But this independent division stationed in prestige still did not commit any offences against many ordinary merchants.

In particular, many people living in Weixin City watched the Red Army come to the door and entrust them to make shoes and clothing, saying that they could pay for it. Many ordinary people also joined the ranks of making money from the Red Army.

Seeing that the military shoes made by the people were still military uniforms, He Zhengdao also distributed these new military uniforms to those captured officers and soldiers. In this way, it is more pleasing to the eye in He Zhengdao's opinion.

And for these prisoners who were being trained, wearing this brand new Red Army uniform meant that they could only go one way with the Red Army. After all, if they were caught by the Central Army wearing this Red Army uniform, they would only have a dead end.

But for Long Yun, he was a little unhappy in the face of the independent division staying in prestige to recuperate. But no matter how unhappy he was, in the face of an independent division with a strength of more than 20,000 people, Long Yun still felt that the confrontation was even more unfavorable to him.

Just when the Dian army sent scouts to find out what the independent division was doing in prestige. After learning that the independent division was stationed in prestige, he actually spent a lot of money to buy supplies, and Long Yun also felt incredible.

But what he didn't expect was that many of these soldiers who sent prestige reconnaissance were captured by the scouts of the independent division. But in the end, these soldiers of the Yunnan army were also confiscated and put back.

Wait for a scout to bring back to Long Yun a piece of eight words that 'stay for three days, and leave when the time comes'. Long Yun, who learned the news, also realized that this independent division also didn't want to fight him.

It was this tacit understanding reached in private that rushed to the reinforcements of prestige and played a few scenes with the independent division. The Red Army left the prestige area on the front foot, and the reinforcements took over the area smoothly on the back foot.

Until the independent division left the Yunnan Realm, Long Yun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said: "For the rest, let Liu Xiang have a headache!" ”

If Liu Xiang, the king of Sichuan, heard this, he would probably vomit blood depressedly. keeps saying that he is sincere and united, how can he become a pit teammate in a blink of an eye?
