Chapter 307: Escape

Under the quiet moonlit sky, the breeze is gentle, and under the warm night, a huge army on the north bank of the Xiangjiang River is standing quietly at the exit of a valley, and a kilometer away is the territory of the former enemy Hunan army.

In the afternoon, I got an order to let them swagger through the camp of the Sichuan army tonight, and if there is anything to pick up on the road, no looting, no noisy everyone, one piece per person, and leave after picking up.

"What kind of order is this?" Many battalion and regimental commanders and fighters couldn't believe it when they heard this brainless order, and they even suspected that the messenger had passed on the wrong order.

However, when all the commanders and fighters above the battalion and regimental level received such an order, these battalion commanders could only reluctantly accept this order, although they did not believe that they would be safe when they walked over with such a swagger.

However, their absolute loyalty to the party gave them an incomparable belief in their hearts, and they would not frown even if they were to die generously.

As one of these skeptical battalion commanders, the vanguard battalion commander of this march and the commander of the central guard battalion, Battalion Commander Liu Hailong walked at the forefront of the team with his last hundred or so soldiers.

He secretly told these brothers around him that everyone should take all their weapons, and if something happens for a while, they must protect their comrades behind him as soon as possible to retreat, even if they die, they must block a few more bullets before they are allowed to fall.

He, an old Red Army soldier, had fought the Nationalist Army for many years and was well aware of the cunning of the Nationalist Army. He must be vigilant at all times.

Soon the guard battalion arrived at the garrison of the Sichuan army, only to see that the checkpoint was still standing during the day, and the Sichuan army garrison was empty, and only boxes of materials were left in the garrison.

Liu Hailong led the soldiers to quickly go over and open the boxes, all of which were bullets and grenades. Walking further, I saw that there were still piles of rifles on the ground on both sides of the road in the distance.

Liu Hailong forcibly suppressed his excited heart, directly picked up a gun, and then ordered everyone to resist a box of bullets and continue to advance.

Battalion Commander Liu Hailong secretly carried a full ten more grenades, hundreds of bullets on his body, he had already thought about it, anyway, I am a pioneer battalion, so I will take more to reduce the burden on the troops behind.

Soon the battalion commander Liu Hailong led the team through the Chinese army garrison of the Sichuan army, and when they were about to walk out of this mountainous area and enter the next mountainous area, boxes of supplies appeared on both sides of the mountain road.

Liu Hailong immediately opened a few boxes to check that "my obedient is all canned meat produced by Huaxing Company, as well as bags of Western food" He had eaten this thing before, and he had this kind of thing when he airdropped grain last time, as if it was called a biscuit.

There is also a layer of sweet oil sandwiched between the two layers of hard cakes, this thing can fight hunger, usually eat a few pieces can top a day, if you carry a bag, you are not afraid of hunger for a week.

Liu Hailong now regrets that he has carried too many grenades, and he has not eaten enough for many days, and now it is the period of the march, and it is impossible for them to eat while walking, but with so much food, who doesn't want to carry a few more boxes of canned food and a few more bags of biscuits.

The current battalion commander Liu already understands why he can't understand the order in the afternoon, and who can figure out the scene in front of him if he is not immersive.

Obviously, this is because the leaders of the Sichuan Army and the Military Commission are in good spirits, but I don't know why the Sichuan Army, which usually fights with the Red Army for life and death, sent guns and supplies this time.

But if he is not in his position, he will not seek his own government, since this operation is not a trap, what else is he hesitating about? Let's get forward. But after loading it for a long time, I found that there was no extra space on my body, and it was all stuffed with equipment.

I saw that the soldiers on the left and right were happily carrying biscuits in their arms and carrying canned food on their bodies. Battalion Commander Liu's heart moved, he quietly untied the ten grenades from his waist and put them on the ground, and took out the extra 100 bullets from his arms and threw them on the ground.

Then he walked to the canned food box as if no one was around, and also carried a few cans and a dozen bags of biscuits. When he couldn't take it anymore, he finally walked to the front of the line again satisfied.

But when their battalion was about to get out of this mountainous area, they saw rubber shoes and military uniforms piled up on both sides of the road. These cloth shoes and military uniforms were all brought to the north bank of the Xiangjiang River by Huaxing Chongqing Company with Tiedan.

Looking at the neat and clean set of military uniforms and shoes and socks in front of him, Liu Hailong couldn't hold back his tears anymore, how long had he not worn a new military uniform that had not been patched. It's been a long time since I've worn new cloth shoes. As for socks, don't even think about it.

Liu Hailong didn't say a word, he directly kicked off the straw sandals on his feet, put on the rubber shoes in front of him, and he didn't know if the military uniform fit or not, and he didn't have time to change it, so he put on a set of backs first.

There is no place to take the rubber shoes, so I simply bite a pair of rubber shoes with my teeth first, and wait until tomorrow morning, arrive at the new resting place, and then tidy it up.

Seeing Battalion Commander Liu Hailong do this, the soldiers of the guard battalion who also had this kind of distress followed suit, and they all bit their rubber shoes one by one and continued to move forward.

Carrying dozens of pounds of weight on their bodies was a piece of cake for the Red Army soldiers who were accustomed to suffering. Everyone quickly passed through the garrison of the Sichuan Army, and then marched north according to the pre-arranged road.

When Liu Hailong's guard battalion was about to walk out of here, he saw two soldiers with guns standing in the middle of the avenue. In front of the two soldiers stood a young man in a suit who saw the vanguard of the Red Army arrive.

The visitor asked the soldiers of the guard battalion who the top leader of their unit was, and he asked to see him, and soon Liu Hailong was taken by the soldiers to the young man's side.

The young man asked him directly: "Do you know Li Kenong?" ”

When Liu Hailong heard that he was asking Minister Li, he naturally nodded his head to show his understanding.

"Can you take me to him? I have important letters to give him. The young man took out a letter.

Battalion Commander Liu Hailong said that he was from the guard battalion, and Minister Li was in the rear army, and he could transfer it on his behalf.

The young man said absolutely not, he brought only two guards, and he asked that the letter be handed over to Minister Li in person.

Liu Hailong thought about it, even if these three people experienced harm, it was impossible to bring any danger to the leadership of the central government, so he nodded and agreed with the young man's opinion, and waited here with the young man.

Seeing more and more fighters returning one by one, Liu Hailong also became happier the more he watched, with these supplies, they didn't have to worry about fighting in a short time.

Soon the ranks of the central leaders of the Chinese army also passed by, and Liu Hailong immediately went to the Chinese army to report, and soon Li Kenong took Liu Hailong to the front of the young man.

"I'm Li Kenong, hey, I seem to have seen you, by the way, aren't you an iron egg?" As soon as Li Kenong introduced himself, he remembered who the iron egg in front of him was.

And Tie Dan was also very happy that Li Kenong finally remembered him, which made it easier for him to complete his subsequent tasks.

Since everyone is an old acquaintance, and they know each other well, naturally there is no need to hide anything.

I saw Tie Dan hand over a thick envelope to Li Kenong: "Minister Li, my young master said it." This is a gift from him, please accept it, I hope it can help you. ”

Li Kenong put away the envelope, and by the bright moonlight, he could tell that the envelope contained several maps. Li Kenong didn't think much about it, he thought it was the enemy's power distribution map. So he is grateful for Tiedan's help.

Tie Dan didn't say much, just said, "There are no enemies on the road ahead, and this letter can be read again tomorrow morning." However, the enemies on the left and right are also catching up, and they still have a day to rest.

After a day, the Red Army must run with all its might to get rid of the pursuers again, and our young master can only help you so much for the time being. I wish the officers and men of the Red Army an early escape. ”

"Thank you." Li Kenong only said these two words, but the meaning of the words is indeed numerous. Watching Tie Dan leave, Li Kenong immediately returned to the Chinese army.

More than 30,000 Red Army soldiers broke through the fourth line of defense of the Sichuan army overnight after being supplied by the Sichuan army. Occasionally, the rumbling sound of cannon can be heard in the distance.

It seemed that the Sichuan army was attacking their already empty camp. The rumbling sound of cannons in the distance woke Li Kenong, who had just fallen asleep, from his dream.

Lying on the ground, Li Kenong took out the envelope sent by the iron egg from his arms again, and took advantage of the sunlight to take a closer look at the map in his hand, and then saw Li Kenong sit up from the ground in a flash.

He quickly flipped through the map in his hand, and after reading it, he immediately put it away. Then he ran to the Military Council at a high speed.

When he came to the location of the Military Commission, Zhou Weiren and Zhu Weiren were eating canned biscuits while discussing what to do next. Whether to go north to contact Zhang Guotao, or to go west to Yunnan. Both paths can be taken, but neither is easy. When I am undecided.

I saw Li Kenong coming here in a hurry, and Li Kenong took out the maps from his arms. Zhou Weiren picked it up and looked at it, and his face became solemn.

However, he calmly read the map in his hand, and then handed it to Zhu Weiren, who put down the can in his hand, solemnly took the map, and took a good look at it.

"Isn't this the route of the march we are preparing to move strategically to the north? How can the angels have our marching route? It's impossible for us to reveal it. Zhu Weiren said strangely.

"This is not our marching route, to be exact, this is the marching route arranged for us by the angels, we have several marching routes, this is only one of them, and it is not the one we want to take the most.

You see, the route of the angel sign is still very different from the route we originally designed. I guess that's what he gave us.

Although the snow-capped mountains marked above, the meadows have indeed been successfully crossed by no one in the past. But that doesn't mean that our Red Army soldiers can't turn it over.

Look at the last map. Supplies have been buried for us in almost every strategic location.

Entering the Kang-Tibet area, there is a large amount of gold and ammunition supplies, and entering the grassland, there is a large amount of food and pathfinding equipment.

Even before entering the snowy mountains, there was a large supply base marked on the map, marked with clothes and boots, which I guess were for the soldiers to protect against the cold.

The ultimate goal of this road pointed out to us by the angel is also to reach northern Shaanxi, although the road is more dangerous, but it can avoid almost all the troops of the national army that encircle our army. I believe that with these supplies from the angels, we will definitely be able to reach northern Shaanxi with minimal casualties. Zhou Weiren explained.

"We owe the angels too much." Zhu Weiren said solemnly.
