682. Meet the Grand Chief

Zhao Meiyan has never been to the Central Soviet District, and now she finally has the opportunity to meet the saint in her heart, and it is a lie to say that she is not excited.

However, how to meet with the central leadership in the past requires taking great risks. In this regard, Bai Shujie has repeatedly emphasized the cruelty of political struggles.

"Mei Yan, the relationship between people is complex, the society is complex, and the rectification is even more complicated! Generals who are taking troops out of the country must not bring the army back without authorization! Chinese civilization has been 5,000 years old, and you are a scholar, so you don't need me to say more, right? ”

When Bai Shujie saw him off, the words that he emphasized to Zhao Meiyan have been churning in Zhao Meiyan's mind for the past few days.

Fortunately, the radio frequency announced by the central government has now been obtained, so Zhao Meiyan first reported the basic situation of her independent division and the fundamental purpose of this western expedition in accordance with the procedures explained by Bai Shujie, and finally asked for instructions on how to get to Yan'an.

This app is very important!

The power is a big bully, the merit is high, and how many famous generals have been planted since ancient times, just in this detail.

Joke! The current main force of the Central Red Army is only 15,000 people, and you, a small division commander, actually brought nearly 13,000 people, and they were completely "armed to the teeth"!

What do you want?

Sure enough, Zhao Meiyan soon got a reply from the Central Military Commission: "In view of the fact that there are too many clues, Comrade Zhao Meiyan should not leave the army for the time being, and wait for the central authorities to arrange someone to come for an interview." ”

After receiving this telegram, Zhao Meiyan believed that Bai Shujie's concerns were correct, and she also began to worry about reporting to the Central Committee this time.

However, the principle of party spirit made Zhao Meiyan quickly make the right decision: "Order: Except for the baggage battalion and guard battalion, the other troops immediately withdraw from the county seat." Units are not allowed to deploy except for an air defense battalion to protect an artillery regiment with an air defense company. For all the vigilance tasks, an infantry regiment assigned a battalion to undertake them. ”

Three days later, a group of female soldiers came from the south. When Zhao Meiyan got the news, she immediately led two female soldiers from the communication company to ride out of the city five kilometers outside the city and wait.

Sister He!

As soon as the two sides met, Zhao Meiyan was so excited that she didn't know what to say: "Sister He, my ears are about to grow calluses when I hear your name, and I finally see you today, I am so happy!" ”

"I was appointed by the Central Military Commission to inspect your troops." Sister He smiled and said, "I want to see how majestic our female general is and can sweep the whole of Shanxi." ”

"Sister He, I didn't do anything, it was the Rehe Front Army that came forward to help. I have no experience in leading troops, so the entire interspersed operation was arranged by Bai Shujie, commander-in-chief of the Rehe Front. ”

Zhao Meiyan could hear that this was not a good thing, so she told the truth: "And a few years ago, Bai Shujie had already calculated the specific time when the chairman commanded the troops to go east, and then concealed the reconnaissance knife troops in Yanmen Pass in advance. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Meiyan took out the "Winter Training Order" sent to her by Bai Shujie from her arms.

Sister He took it and took a look, and her whole face suddenly turned pale. But after all, she has experienced a hundred battles and has seen countless female generals in storms, so she quickly recovered: "The troops don't need to look at it, you can follow me to Yan'an quickly!" ”

At this time, Zhao Meiyan took out Bai Shujie's second telegram "Order on Preparing for Battle" and the third telegram "Order on Launching the Western Expedition" and handed them to Sister He: "And eldest sister, please see, these are the second and third telegrams, and all my marching routes are strictly implemented in accordance with this telegram." ”

"I see!" Sister He stared at Zhao Meiyan and said, "You have been wronged!" But so many troops definitely can't be brought over, and they can't live there. So, you bring the most important things, and we'll rush back overnight. ”

Zhao Meiyan shook her head: "Sister He, personally, all belong to the Party Central Committee and the Chairman, so I have nothing." But if you want me to bring something important, it's the artillery regiment, the air defense battalion, the baggage battalion, the guard battalion, and the number of them is already more than six thousand. So, I need to get a handwritten telegram from the President. ”

"Sister He, to say a disrespectful word, if there is no transfer order personally signed by the chairman, just if you say it verbally, I will not move. This is not for any other reason, but when I asked the Rehe Front Army to help me form this unit, it was already decided that this force would not listen to anyone except the chairman and the Central Revolutionary Military Commission! ”

Sister He smiled slightly: "Okay, borrow your radio station to use it!" ”

Zhao Meiyan invited Sister He to her war room, which is a deserted land temple, and then ordered a portable radio station to be transferred to Sister He: "From now on, this radio station belongs to your Sister He." ”

The time was very fast, and the central government called back, and it was a telegram signed by the chairman: "Comrade Zhao Meiyan of the Xiongxian Independent Division, bring what you think is important and report to Yan'an immediately!" ”

Seeing the long queue, with more than 7,000 people, and all of them were cavalry, Sister He was a little puzzled: "Didn't you say that there is an artillery regiment, why are all cavalry except for the big box?" ”

"Eldest sister, I didn't go out to fight, but to hand over the command of the army to the chairman, so the cannons were disassembled and packed in boxes." Zhao Meiyan strictly followed Bai Shujie's explanation, and didn't dare to say more than half a sentence: "As long as the chairman gives an order, it can all be assembled for the chairman to review in two hours!" ”

There was nothing to say all the way, and when they arrived outside Yan'an City, Zhao Meiyan ordered the troops to be stationed on the spot, and then followed Sister He into the city one by one.

After waiting in the cave for another three days, I finally received the order from the chairman. Unexpectedly, when he came to the chairman's residence, the guards asked Zhao Meiyan to hand over the pistol.

"Comrade, I'm sorry, not everyone can order me to surrender my gun!" Zhao Meiyan was unmoved: "Unless the chairman gives an order, I will put down the weapon in my hand." ”

At this moment, a bright red voice came out of the room: "Only those who have lost the battle will be surrendered by the enemy, what kind of gun will a general with troops hand in?" Come on in! ”

"Zhao Meiyan, political commissar and division commander of the Xiongxian Independent Division, was ordered to come!"

"So you're so young?"

Chairman Wei'an's body had already appeared at the door, followed by several people, all looking at Zhao Meiyan with a smile.

Zhao Meiyan couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart anymore, and she was already in tears in the blink of an eye: "Zhao Meiyan salutes the chairman and the leaders!" ”

After sitting down in the conference room, the chairman did not introduce the people present, but asked directly: "Comrade Mei Yan, I heard that Bai Shujie agreed a few months ago that we should cross the Yellow River eastward?" ”

"Chairman of the report: To be precise, before Chiang Kai-shek launched the fifth encirclement and suppression of the central Soviet area, Bai Shujie was already aware of the possibility of a situation in the future." Zhao Meiyan looked at the chairman and said: "In the later days of the Battle of Xiangjiang, Bai Shujie always looked at the south alone and sighed. ”

Later, he said that the chairman would make a comeback in Zunyi, and the Central Red Army would definitely be able to jump out of the encirclement of the explanation. The four crossings of Chishui, the flying capture of the Luding Bridge, the forcible crossing of the Jinsha River, the breaking of the Lazikou, and the crossing of the Jiajin Mountain are all sued by him. In the Battle of Songpan, I originally wanted to lead my troops westward to meet the Central Red Army. ”

However, Bai Shujie said that the time has not yet come, and the troops are not yet combat-ready. He said that if you must join forces with the Central Red Army, it should be in Shanxi, not in southern Shaanxi. Since then, I have been looking forward to the day when I will be able to see the President and the heads of state as soon as possible. ”

"I don't mean anything else, because I'm a military amateur. Only by meeting the chairman at an early date can I personally hand over this party unit to the chairman and fulfill my historical mission. Today, this time has finally come, and it is also the most exciting time of my life. ”

"Oh?" The chairman exchanged glances with several other central leaders, and then said, "Strange, how did Bai Shujie know these things?" ”

Zhao Meiyan shook her head: "Report Chairman: I asked him once, but he didn't answer my question. ”

The chairman didn't delve in: "Okay, what did Bai Shujie ask you to bring back?" ”

"To be honest, I don't know what it is!" Zhao Meiyan blushed and said: "All the things that should be handed over to the chairman and the central government are all sealed in a big iron box, and they are all welded to death. Bai Shujie said that no one can open it without the presence of the chairman! ”

An old man who looked to be in his fifties said with a smile: "This Bai Shujie, what kind of fame is he doing!" ”

"It doesn't matter what kind of fame he does, since he can pinch and calculate, then I must see it for myself." The chairman lit a cigarette and waved his hand: "Let's go, let's all go and see the strange!" ”

After a short time, everyone came to the river beach on the edge of the Yan River, and more than 500 large iron boxes were placed on the riverside. But none of the troops were visible, and only one platoon was guarded.

Zhao Meiyan hurriedly stopped and said, "Report Chairman: I don't know what's inside. For the sake of safety, please ask the chairman and the heads to be on the bank of the river, which is still more than 300 meters away from the iron boxes. When I have opened the box, I will come back and ask the Chairman and the Heads to look at it. ”

Zhao Meiyan rushed to the river beach and shouted to the guard platoon: "Machine gun! ”

Da - Da - In the blink of an eye, Zhao Meiyan rushed at the big iron box, and she had already shot out eight magazines. Then a machine gun was replaced, and again eight magazines. It was not until the fourth machine gun had eight magazines that the lid of the large iron case was fully opened.

Zhao Meiyan threw the machine gun on the ground, rushed to the iron box marked "artillery assembly", and then led a platoon of soldiers to lift the broken lid. There are a total of 288 large iron boxes, all of which are artillery spare parts.

With the cannon, it was easy to explain, and Zhao Meiyan finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Order: The mountain artillery battalion and the field artillery battalion run into the field, immediately complete the artillery assembly work, and accept the review of the central leadership, there must be no mistakes!" ”

As one cannon after another was assembled, the central leaders standing on the river bank finally couldn't bear it anymore and rushed to the river beach one after another.

"Ge Laozi, all of them are brand new artillery!" The chief, who was in his fifties, said to Zhao Meiyan: "Girl, come here, what type of artillery is this, and what is the performance?" ”

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
