He looked at the faint smoke in the distance and said, "Their loss of strength is too great, and I am afraid that they will soon be swallowed up by that Mr. Jiang's central army." The Central Army-Guangxi has long been eyeing the two Guangzhou, and there is such a good opportunity, how can Jiang have a reason to let go? If he achieves his goal, his territory and his strength will expand a lot, and the pressure on our Red Army will be even greater, and we will not be able to go to the Hunan and Hubei borders to join Mr. He, which will only lead to a dead end. ”

Wang Jiaxiang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Mao Rundong first thought of the crisis when he heard the good news that Guo Zhuocheng had eliminated the main force of the Gui army, and he was so anxious that he just wanted to see the telegram he began to worry, and asked: "Could it be that we helped Jiang Jiashi this time?" Then we should immediately call for a conference, and it will be more urgent and more important to re-choose our route of march, which is all the more a matter of life and death. ......, however, Lao Mao, it is still a great thing for us to annihilate the main force of the Gui Army, and Comrade Guo Zhuocheng still has great merit, and we cannot erase their merits just because the Central Army has gained a bargain. ”

Mao Rundong smiled and said lightly: "Of course, his credit is great, just because the news of his annihilation of a division of the Gui Army has been spread to boost the morale of our army, we should praise him well and give him a great credit." If you can destroy the enemy, you should destroy the enemy, and there is no reason why you don't eat the meat that is sent to the mouth. ......, however, the problems we encounter should not be underestimated, how to develop next, we can only take one step at a time, and he Li Zongren may not be arrested? As the saying goes, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, maybe we are now exhausted and have no way, and then the willows and flowers will be bright and another village. There are Red Army soldiers like Guo Zhuocheng. What else are we worried about? The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. As long as we have a plan in advance. Rejoice. Be glad. ”

Mr. Peng pursed his lips and said: "I said what are you talking about, the problem you thought of was also thought of by others, and they also proposed solutions." I came in such a hurry, do you think that my surname Peng has not seen the victory, has not heard the news of the victory? Think I'm only sixteen or seventeen years old? Would you better take a look at the telegram first? ”

"Oh, this guy has come up with a solution? He even knows the whole big picture at the moment? ......, it can't be, right? Mao Rundong saw that Mr. Peng had a "that's it" expression on his face, and he couldn't help but be really shocked. Hurriedly reached out and took out the telegram from his pocket, and his eyes were stunned!

He walked quickly to the side, as if he didn't want anyone to see his feelings, and he clutched the newspaper with both hands and read it carefully, looking at it word by word.

Like Mr. Peng, he read it three times, and he could almost recite the words inside before he took his eyes off the paper.

He exhaled heavily, turned around and beckoned to Wang Jiaxiang, who was inexplicably staying in place, and said, "Old man, come and see this telegram." ……。 God bless my Red Army. ”

Wang Jiaxiang seemed to guess something and took the telegram excitedly, and he read it quickly. I read and read the next few paragraphs of text, and said loudly: "Okay! Good! This young man is really bold and wise! Lao Mao is right, God bless my Red Army. This young man knew that we should not go to the Hunan-Hubei border area, and we should not go into Jiang Jiaoshi's pocket to meet with Mr. He, but should march to Guizhou, Sichuan, where the enemy is weak.

......, no, I have to talk to Zhou Luo and Mr. Zhu immediately, and we must hold a plenary meeting immediately!" This time we have to solve not only the problem of our next step, but also the problem of your command. You have to go back to leadership. I don't believe that other comrades can't think of the truth that Comrade Guo Shucheng can know, unless he has selfish motives, unless he really wants to bury our team. ”

Mao Rundong calmly denied: "No! We must first address the question of our way out, which is the most important issue at the moment. Can't stimulate them too much, the problem can't be solved at once, you can only take it slowly, as the saying goes, you can't eat a fat person in one bite, and you can't reach it if you want to hurry. ”

Wang Jiaxiang said: "However, I am heartbroken when I watch the Red Army lose day by day. ”

Mao Rundong said: "Who doesn't feel heartache when they see the current situation? This is something that we have cultivated with great painstaking efforts and countless comrades, and countless comrades have sacrificed for it. However, if we all change the route of the march to them, it may be okay to let them kill. Once they know that we want them to cede power, won't those who eat foreign bread take us under the knife? It's not a pity that we're dead, but isn't our cause more dangerous? ”

Mr. Peng also said: "Yes, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so we will solve the most dangerous problem first, and then consider the future problems." ......, Lao Mao, I think we have to give Guo Zhuocheng and them a regular name, and they can't wear a nondescript action team, just like a spy organization. ”

Mao Rundong said: "Let's do it first, although the name is not justified, but this is also conducive to his free play." If you really want to bring him a sign now, it will make him restrain his hands. Think about it, if you give him an official now, and if he really leads the troops back to the Central Soviet Region, there are so many people and so many higher-level leaders there, all of whom are higher in rank and older than him, who will he listen to? If everyone has to be his mother-in-law, everyone has to point fingers at him, and the command is not clear, this battle will not be fought. ”

Mr. Peng's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, I will give him a death order as soon as I go back, and his troops must be under his full command." ”

Wang Jiaxiang also thought of something, and said: "Let's talk about it after a while, it's better to blur it for a while." ”

Although General Peng is the old leader of the Red Army, he is only the head of the Third Army Corps, and it is possible to promote Guo Zhuocheng to company commander, battalion commander, and regiment commander, but no matter how high it is, it will be difficult, and it must be reported to the General Headquarters of the Red Army for approval.

If Guo Zhuocheng was only a regiment commander, he would have returned to the Central Soviet Region with his troops, and there would have been more big cadres left behind than cows, although now that the Kuomintang-Party Central Army had occupied it, those big cadres had gone into hiding, and many of them had gone up to the mountains to fight guerrillas, but as soon as Guo Zhuocheng's troops appeared, these big cadres would have sprung up, and many people who were older and more powerful than President Peng himself would probably ask to take over the troops.

If Guo Zhuocheng had handed over power and handed over command to others, without Guo Zhuocheng's leadership, it would be difficult to say whether this unit would have survived the heavy siege of the central army. If Guo Zhuocheng does not hand over power, he will violate the principles of organization, and he will be said to be disorganized, forming gangs, and pursuing independence in Shushantou, and his political future and even his life will be over.

In that kind of environment, Guo Zhuocheng's rank or the higher the security, for example, he is the leader of a certain front army, a member of the Central Committee, and those who want to intervene are not much higher than Guo Zhuocheng no matter how high their status is, and they have to worry about whether Guo Zhuocheng will oppose it, and whether other cadres in the army will support them.

Either the lower Guo Zhuocheng's position, the safer it is, and President Peng can cover him even more, because Guo Zhuocheng can completely use one sentence to dismiss those who want to intervene: "I will listen to the orders of the head of the Third Army Corps." There is no clear order to come down, I'm sorry, I don't pay attention to anyone's words. If you have any comments, you can report them to the Third Legion. ”

However, it is impossible for Guo Zhuocheng to become a high-ranking official immediately, and neither President Peng nor Mao Rundong has this power. The only way is to let Guo Shucheng temporarily demote his position, let him be controlled by the Red Third Army, and let him have no right to hand over the power in his hands to others. In particular, the name "special operations unit" was given to his troops, which further strengthened the unity, subordination, and particularity of the troops' functions, making it even more impossible for others to interfere. The name is even reminiscent of a special agency that performs special tasks, which outsiders simply do not have the right to insert.

Mao Rundong said with a smile: "Mr. Peng, when the time comes, someone may really complain to you, and someone will really ask you for the command of this army." ”

Mr. Peng's eyes widened and he said: "Think beautifully, whoever asks Lao Tzu for Guo Shucheng's power, Lao Tzu will his wife!" ......, don't give! When the sky falls, Lao Tzu will give it to him, as long as this doll gives Lao Tzu a few more big wins. ......, hehe, I believe that my old Peng sings blackface, and your old hair won't even sing with a red face, right? ”

Mao Rundong smiled and did not speak.

Wang Jiaxiang said: "When I encounter something like singing blackface, I am also one." ”

The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

……

Guo Zhuocheng, who was in Matouling, did not know that his telegram would have such a big effect, and he was now busy cleaning up the captured weapons and equipment, and was busy concentrating on the captured Gui army.

The reason why he sent a report to General Peng saying that he would persist in the struggle in place and fight the Central Army here, and even proposed to return to the Central Soviet District, was because he had discovered one thing: most of the plum blossoms in the palm of his left hand had turned reddish, which meant that he would soon be able to return to the era of 1991.

As long as he can return, he can transport materials from that era back to this era according to the agreement of the mysterious man, and he can also transport materials from this era to that era, becoming a trafficker between the two eras. This can solve many of his problems, but he doesn't know how much he can transport, and whether he can arm all the troops he controls. If so, wouldn't the combat effectiveness of one's own troops be greatly enhanced? That's great!

In Guo Zhuocheng's view, whether it is the current Gui army, the Hunan army, or the Sichuan army, because the subordinates are all warlords in various places, their loyalty is not high, and they can all be changed, as long as they have money, as long as they can win the war, these armies are their own source of soldiers, and they can form a huge number of troops.
