Chapter 1069 is a risky move

An Yi, who was paying close attention to the movements of the Red Army, suddenly received a telegram from Hu Zongnan, and only then did he know that Hu Zongnan's first division had rushed to the front line of Guangyuan and Zhaohua in Sichuan, and cooperated with the Sichuan Army and the Central Army to enter Sichuan to encircle Xu's front.

An Yi hurriedly called to inquire about the battle situation, and soon Hu Zongnan called back to arrive, saying that the whole division was deployed on the west bank of the Jialing River, and Ding Delong's independent brigade went out of Jiangdong before it had not yet met the Red Army. After the telegram, Hu Zongnan said that he would be a guest in Syria at the end of the battle, so that An Yi could prepare.

An Yi thought that there was nothing to prepare, the big deal was the procurement of weapons and equipment, so he didn't take this matter to heart. Nearly 200,000 well-equipped and well-equipped regular troops went to fight the Red Army in northern Sichuan, which lacked food, clothing, guns and artillery and only had 30,000 or 40,000 people left.

On the contrary, the changes in the battle situation in Guizhou made An Yi extremely worried, and the headquarters of Shizhen in Qianxi has been in close contact with the base camp of the Anjia Army for several days, and all kinds of information have been sent in one stream, which has provided convenience for the generals and colonels of the Anjia Army Headquarters to accurately judge the battle situation in Guizhou.

On the 23rd, the main forces of the Red Army and all the central organs withdrew from Zunyi and marched westward, and the general of the Guizhou Army, Chiang Zaizhen, led a division to take the lead in marching into Tongzi, which was deserted, and immediately telegraphed to Chiang Kai-shek and the General Headquarters of the Suppression, saying that he "used his life to recover Tongzi in one fell swoop."

The Central News Agency and the Central Radio repeatedly reported this "good news" to the whole country, and Jiang Zaizhen's name and his "heroic and good fighting" were immediately known to countless people across the country.

As everyone knows, the 20th Army of Huang Han, the main force of the Red Army's forward, has beaten the unlucky Qianjun Hou Zhidan's division to the point of crying wolf, and there is not one out of ten, and Hou Zhidan did not have time to make any resistance at all, so he abandoned Huairen County, ran all the way to the west, and only led 400 remnants to flee into Jinsha County, which was heavily garrisoned by Shizhen's troops in Qianxi. The Third Army of the Red Army Peng Dehuai effortlessly defeated the militia in Maotai Town, and the main force did not make any stops, and went straight to Xishui.

The 20th Army of the Huang Han Dynasty left one regiment to wait for the large army behind them, and the remaining five regiments were divided into two routes, non-stop to attack the strategic important Dadu at the confluence of the Chishui River and the Wuma River.

Huang Han was immediately confused, and he no longer dared to go deep alone, and as soon as he arrived at Dadukou, he immediately set up a radio station and reported the situation in detail to the corps commander.

**After repeated consideration, he ordered the Huang Han Department to hold the position strictly, postpone the attack, and everything needs to find out the enemy's situation.

Bijie, Guizhou, the compound of the Qianxi Pacification Office.

Shi Zhen and the generals under his command did not expect the Red Army to come so quickly, and the troops were divided into three routes, killing gods when encountering gods, killing ghosts when encountering ghosts, easily conquering the front line of Huairen, beating a division of Hou Zhidan, and so quickly taking Xishui County, which strengthened the regimental defense of the headquarters.

Although Shi Zhen looked down on the combat effectiveness of Hou Zhi's Dan Department very much, he also underestimated the combat effectiveness and combat confidence of the Red Army, and only then did he really realize that An Yi's prediction of the battle situation was extremely correct, otherwise, if he was reluctant to fortify everywhere and wanted to take the initiative to attack, he would fall into a very chaotic unfavorable situation.

The generals who were originally shouting about how to fight a battle and make a show off no longer have the idea of underestimating the enemy, and they couldn't help but secretly admire An Yi and Shi Zhen for the strategy they set after a day and a night of secret talks:

Shi Zhen's 70,000 troops were divided into three divisions, and they stubbornly defended the three strategically important areas of western Qianxi, Bijie, Shuicheng, and Dafang, and closely connected the three places together, like a hedgehog, so that the Red Army had no way to start, and the Red Army, which was chasing behind it, would definitely not be able to stay behind the attack, so it could only bypass this triangle area full of industrial bases and quickly go west.

The Red Army's various units were so prepared for Shizhen in Qianxi, and originally wanted to obtain valuable food supplies by conquering Huairen and Xishui counties, but except for the harvest in Huairen, all the grain and materials in other counties and towns were all collected by Shizhen's department, and the county government did not have a grain of grain at all, let alone other materials.

At this time, it was the middle of winter, and after nearly 10 days of clear weather, the sky once again began to rain continuously, and the Red Army officers and men who were hungry and cold were in a difficult situation, and there was not a single grain in their stomachs for two or three days of fighting, and many cadres and soldiers fell one after another.

It was the leaders of the regiments who were wise and decisive, and ordered all political workers and party members and comrades in all departments to carry out large-scale political propaganda, mobilize the masses to enthusiastically support food, whether it was sweet potatoes or sweet potatoes and wild vegetables, everything that could satisfy the stomach was accepted with a smile, and finally the stomach problem was solved, and he was able to embark on the journey again.

Interestingly, in places rich in fine wine such as Moutai Town and Erlang Town around Xishui, all the wine was gone overnight, and many Red Army soldiers who had not drunk a drop of alcohol since they were born had to drink a few taels of wine as dry food, warm up their bodies and continue to move forward.

As a result, the swaying figures could be seen everywhere in the hurried procession, and there were not a few who fell on the side of the road and snored.

The rear of the Red Army was still on the Tucheng and Taiping lines west of Xishui, and the four divisions under the command of Xue Yue had already quickly captured Huairen, attempting to turn around and go north, cutting the Red Army into two sections.

The 20th Huanghan Army, which was advancing to the west, had to turn around, turn around and kill, and fought fiercely with the 93rd Division of Xue Yue's main force at Dadukou, Xue Yue urgently ordered Guo Siyuan to lead the 99th Division to flank the Huanghan Red Army, and the two sides fought fiercely day and night on the banks of the Chishui River.

However, after the fierce battle, none of the six regiments of the Huang Han Division was intact, and after retreating 20 kilometers west overnight to get rid of the pursuit of the enemy army, they stopped to count, and the generals such as Huang Han, Li Xiaolong, Liu Ziyuan, and Du Qiliang suddenly burst into tears - only more than 4,600 of the 800-strong 20th Army returned, and nearly 1,000 of them were still wounded who were reluctantly carried back by their life-and-death comrades-in-arms who never left them.

At the end of January, the main force of the Red Army got rid of the pursuit and arrived at the important towns of Macheng, Puyi and Weixin south of Gulin, and the Huang Han Division, as the forward force, was stationed in the remote town of Qianxi to rest and recuperate, and the distance in the north was only 40 kilometers from the county seat of Xuyong, where the Anjia Army was heavily stationed, and the west was only more than 50 kilometers away from the county town of Yanjin, which was strictly guarded by the garrison troops in southern Sichuan under the command of Yang Bin.

The rain kept falling, and the smoke-filled bonfires in the grass huts seemed to be unable to give some warmth to the cold and hungry soldiers, and the wounded brothers lying on the hay next to the piles of bonfires were groaning and in pain, and the wound infected people were still shouting to kill the enemy in a daze, which made the generals such as Huang Han and Li Xiaolong feel sad, but in this small town where they can't even eat a full stomach, where are the doctors and medicines to treat them? I could only watch as the brothers who died of their injuries died one after another.

Deputy Army Commander Liu Ziyuan had no more tears, and he helped Chang Sheng, the communications company commander who was crying extremely sadly, on Lao Wu, the oldest master in the communications company, and forcibly carried Chang Sheng back to the hut on the side, not daring to let this baby bump in the whole army who could fiddle with the radio be overly sad.

"Commissar, can we get some first-aid medicine? If there is no medicine, I am afraid that one or two hundred people will die. ”

Walking out of the big grass shed and coming to the wild banana tree, Huang Han stopped and asked, ignoring the big raindrops of beans that slipped on the broad leaves.

Li Xiaolong sighed to himself with regret: "If only we hadn't sent most of the medicines to the Central Hospital." ”

Huang Han looked around and whispered solemnly: "Don't say this, it's not good for others to hear it, under the circumstances at that time, don't say that you remind, even if you don't remind, I will not hesitate to send out more medicines, you know the tragic situation of the various legions at that time, how can you turn a blind eye?" It's two different things, and we need to talk about it again. ”

Li Xiaolong nodded silently: "There are medicines nearby, as early as a year ago, I learned through the Kuomintang newspaper and the radio station in southern Sichuan that the southern Sichuan area controlled by An Yi has built hospitals in every county, and every town with a population of more than 5,000 people has also built a rural medical station. ”

"Yes! No way...... No way! We have to think of a way to not watch the brothers who still have hope of being saved go to Hades in front of me! Huang Han finally made up his mind.

Li Xiaolong was shocked: "You want to rob it?" ”

"Not bad! Rob! Huang Han replied in a low voice.

"Wait, it's a violation of discipline, don't worry! Let me think again, think of a way...... Call the corps headquarters and ask us which part of the enemy is to the east and north, and it would be nice to know the exact number. Li Xiaolong was in a hurry.

Huang Han was secretly surprised in his heart, and immediately understood Li Xiaolong's thoughts when he thought about it, it seemed that Li Xiaolong wanted to risk being punished and misunderstood by the central government, and find a way to tear off his old face and beg for the familiar An Jiajun brothers, but in this way, not to mention whether he can get his wish, even if he wishes, Li Xiaolong will also face huge political risks, and his future is uncertain.

"No! I'm not going to let you risk your own head! Again, rob! Huang Han dragged Li Xiaolong over, glared at him and gritted his teeth and said.

Li Xiaolong sighed: "I can't grab it, believe me, I'm more familiar with the An Jiajun than you, they are all ancestors who robbed others, and there is nothing they dare not rob since the day they were formed, and today, they know that we are already under their noses, and it is really rare that we do not take the initiative to attack us, but if we recklessly step into their territory, let alone you and me, even if we are well-trained soldiers, it will be difficult to escape the surveillance and vigilance of those special forces in their army, Not to mention successfully touching the town or county town to pick up the medicine. ”

Huang Han was stunned for a moment, and only after a while did he slowly turn around, wipe off the water stains on his face, shook his head and sighed, and saw Chang Sheng return to the door of the hut again and stand at the door, his red and swollen eyes staring blankly at the dead comrades in the grass shed on the right.

"There's a way!"

Huang Han grabbed Li Xiaolong and briefly told Li Xiaolong that Chang Sheng had a relative who lived in Xufu City to do a small business, and Chang Sheng also had an ID card in southern Sichuan, and said his own way.

Li Xiaolong pondered for a moment, and could only nod: "In this case, I will immediately write a letter and let Chang Lian Chang take it with me, but ...... If there is a case, we can make it clear in the organization, at most one punishment, but ...... We can't live with Chang Lian Commander! ”

"! Now I can't take care of these things, there will be sacrifices if I want a revolution, if Chang Sheng really has something to do, I ...... I admit it too! ”

After Huang Han finished speaking, he gritted his teeth and strode towards the hut.
