Thanks to the generous reward of the book friends dancing the three armies, the following is the third update ^_^ of today

Although even if more than 5,000 people from the Red 15 th Army were replenished, the Red 28 th Army barely reached 8,000 troops, which was not at the same level as the Red 15 th Army, which exceeded 100,000, after receiving Hu Weidong's promise that "the new recruits who expanded the Red Army should be given priority to replenish the 28 th Army," the strength of the Red 28 th Army swelled sharply to more than 30,000 in just one month, and there were also more than 50,000 backbone militia as a source of reserve troops. Of course, this is also because with the full help of the Red 15th Army, most of the former Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet Region has been recovered, otherwise even if Gao Jingting has the ability, it will be difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

The reason why the Hubei-Henan-Anhui base areas were rebuilt so quickly was precisely because of the ferocity of the White Army, and in the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet area, where the population is now just over 2 million (3.5 million at most), almost every citizen had their relatives slaughtered, and the hatred has been deeply engraved (in fact, many of the atrocities were personal acts, but the common people did not care about so much). As long as someone leads them in resistance, they are not afraid of anything.

At first, Hu Weidong was opposed to the recruitment of so many new recruits in the base areas, but the local revolutionary masses said that as long as the Red Army could avenge the villagers, even if only the old and weak women and children in the village were left to farm, they would send the young and strong people to the Red Army

Thinking about it, Hu Weidong's eyes couldn't help but moisten a little, although this is not the base in his mind, but he must protect the people here no matter what, even if the Party Central Committee decided to give up this land for the overall situation of the War of Resistance in the future (in fact, the great man has always opposed the abandonment of the Dabie Mountain base area, but the Yangtze River Bureau at that time was still controlled by Wang Ming. He will also argue on the basis of reason, at least to transfer the local masses to other base areas, the Red Party was founded on the people, no matter how difficult it is, it must not abandon the people

However, the support of the masses of the people is of course very important, but the fact that the Red Army was able to recover more than a dozen counties within a month was also due to the fact that the Kuomintang's last large-scale encirclement and suppression of the Red 28th Army had just failed, and the regular army had basically withdrawn from the Dabie Mountains. However, the captives who can be transformed (the biedong members are reactionary and stubborn, and it is very difficult to transform, and most of the militia members are too poor in quality for Hu Weidong to look down on. It was limited, which made Hu Weidong feel a little regretful, but thinking that the heinous Biedong team had finally become unsuccessful since then (at most, there were more than 10,000 people, the original Central Soviet Region had destroyed more than 4,000 people, and Dabie Mountain had killed more than 5,000, and the die-hard reactionaries were basically dead, plus its leader Kang Ze had already died, even if it was replenished and rebuilt in the future, it would be difficult for the Biedong team to recover to its heyday. Hu Weidong was very pleased

In the past month or so, in addition to restoring the base areas and expanding the Red Army, Hu Weidong also asked Gao Jingting to mobilize the local masses to build a barely usable field airfield as quickly as possible. Hu Weidong was not prepared to take Dabie Mountain as the fundamental place in the future, but he learned from the pain after 8,000 elite soldiers shed blood on the Yangtze River, believing that if his own air force participated in the war at that time, at least the losses would be reduced a lot. Due to the outstanding political work of the party organizations in the Fujian, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Guangdong, and Anhui Soviet regions, more and more of the captured pilots and flight cadets of the Nationalist army were willing to fight on the side of the people and fight against the Nationalist army, but because Nanchang between the crossing site and the Soviet area had been "recovered" by the Nationalist army, if they had been supported by planes at that time, they would inevitably be intercepted by the Nationalist air force and air defense firepower, so Hu Weidong did not let them go out in the end. However, if there was a field airfield in the Dabie Mountains, the planes of the Soviet area could be transferred here, avoiding Nanchang, a hard nail that had now been stationed in two flying brigades, and would be free to fight in support of the Red Eighth Army. In addition, with the pitiful range of those planes, if you want to fly to the base area that Hu Weidong has chosen in his heart, you need to have an airport as a transit point on the way...,

Although the Fourth Front Army had a plane before, Gao Jingting was still very shocked when he saw the plane, and he was completely convinced that he had a boastful element of the Red 15th Army's achievements, and this Red Army general, who had never been easily convinced, was in awe of Hu Weidong, a young junior, for the first time.

At the same time as the plane was transferred, he also brought those pilots and scientific and technological experts who remained in the Fujian, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Guangdong, and Anhui Soviet regions with him; for this reason, Hu Weidong had already made arrangements when he left the Soviet area; he believed that with the Red Army's background, the bomber was a very luxurious thing, and it was better to use it as a reduced version of the transport plane, so that the experts, pilots, and other elite personnel could quickly cross the national control area and move between the various Soviet areas; although there was a certain danger due to the poor reliability of the aircraft, it was much more convenient and safer than taking the land routeAfter all, even the Red 15th Army is currently mainly dependent on capture and maintenance, and there is no confidence to play the extravagant "air-ground coordination", of course, bomber pilots and bombardiers and other crew members still need to be trained, but only as a jishu reserve

On August 25, 1935, after learning that He Yingqin had reactivated Gu Zhutong and gathered 300,000 troops to solve the Red Eighth Army and the Dabie Mountain Soviet District in one fell swoop, Hu Weidong finally decided to march to the goal he had already chosen in his heart, ending the thousands of miles in the past six months. This is because although Gu Zhutong is not a first-class general, he is very stable in his use of troops, and it is very difficult to get into the loophole, but he still has 300,000 troops in his hands, Dabie Mountain is located between the Jianghuai River, and it is very convenient for the armies of the neighboring countries to rush to help, even if the strength of the Red Eighth Army has soared to 150,000, it will never be good if he fights hard, so it is undoubtedly the best choice to move the enemy to the outside line, and Dabie Mountain is only a few hundred miles away from the ideal base in Hu Weidong's mind, and he is naturally happy to solve the two things together. For this reason, Hu Weidong had already begun to take precautions as early as when he first entered the Dabie Mountains, and the report of the Henan Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China made him even more overjoyed, because more than one underground party had infiltrated into one of the most important arsenals of the Kuomintang, and Hu Weidong was no longer able to complain about the poor counterintelligence ability of the Kuomintang
