After Yang Tinghui's eight columns were pulled out of Bump Mountain, they participated in the encirclement of Jiang Wenzhao's group army in the Battle of Luyuan, and Jiang Wenzhao was already a turtle in the urn at this time. Due to the drastic changes in the situation of the entire civil war, the Kuomintang army took care of one thing and lost the other, and the remnants of Jiang Wenzhao's more than 20,000 troops were divided and besieged in more than a dozen strongholds by the three columns of the People's Liberation Army and nearly 40,000 troops of the local armed forces. The commander-in-chief of the Luyuan Campaign of the People's Liberation Army and the commander of a certain corps cast a net all over the sky with an absolutely superior force, calmly commanding the troops to encircle but not attack, and encroaching step by step. In addition, Liang Bida and other troops attacked sporadically in the city, and the underground organizations in Luzhou and Yuancheng sabotaged and sneak attacks, and the fighting spirit of Jiang's officers and soldiers was completely lost.
Jiang Wenzhao had no choice but to take the risk of breaking through when he had no food and grass inside and no rescuers outside.
The siege troops of the People's Liberation Army crossed the sea to show their magical powers, those who surrounded Wei to save Zhao, those who led the snake out of the hole, those who attacked the point to help, and those who should cooperate with the outside, only three or five days of work, Jiang Wenzhao's troops became a thin water and quicksand, and only a few thousand men and horses fled from the road, and the pursuit of thousands of miles south began again.
After the army crossed the river, the Eighth Column was reorganized into the No. XX Army of a certain field army, Yang Tinghui and Wang Lantian were appointed as army commanders and political commissars, the Second Brigade was reorganized into the second division of the army, and Liang Bida and Zhang Pujing were appointed as division commanders and political commissars.
At this time when the country was in turmoil, Jiang Jun was even more depressed, and all his will was concentrated in only one word, that is-escape.
Even if the troops that are still retained, as long as they are caught up, they will not move in place, not firing a single shot, only shouting a few times, and the troops in groups and battalions will shout slogans and come over and surrender. It was really defeated, and the wind and clouds were invincible all the way.
It was in Fujian that Wen Zeyuan and Qi Gefei surrendered to Liang Bida's forces.
The vanguard of surrender was Chen Mohan's 2nd Regiment. Lao Pao Zexin's opponent was not much embarrassed to meet on such an occasion, and from Wen Zeyuan's face, he couldn't see the gray look of being a prisoner, but showed a greedy expression tormented by hunger and exhaustion.
Wen Zeyuan smiled bitterly and said to Chen Mohan: "Brother, I had long expected this day, and others couldn't hide your actions from me." I let you go, not for anything else, just to meet you today on the narrow road to change me into clean clothes and give me a full meal. ”
Qi Gefei was even more at ease, and he also put up the old chief's shelf with a big grin, and said to Chen Mohan: "Brother, you have foresight in this hand. Okay, in the past 30 years, we have become lost dogs, and you have become a hero of others. It's okay, those who know the times are Junjie, and if you don't hurry up to prepare wine for Chief Wen and Brother Qi, it can be regarded as repaying Huarong Dao for not killing you with a single thought. ”
Chen Mohan said with a smile: "I have already reported this matter to Liang Bida and Chief Yang and Wang. The two old commanders can rest assured that you also have righteous deeds, and it is only a matter of time before you surrender in no particular order, and our army will naturally be generous. ”
On the same day, Chen Mohan really set up a table of wine banquet in Nanping City, and sent someone to pick up the division commander Liang Bida and political commissar Zhang Pujing, everyone did not talk about the friction of the civil war, but only talked about the history of cooperation during the Anti-Japanese War, and the banquet was also full of laughter and laughter, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Soon after, Wen Zeyuan and Ziegfei were escorted to a provincial capital in the south, where they began a new turning point in their lives.
