Rebirth of the Anti-Japanese Heroes

Li Jiansheng wept bitterly.After respectfully kowtowing to his body three times, he took off the flying knife that Li Fei was carrying with him, and then left.Li Fei's body will be buried freely by the local peasant association!When he came back, he was directly appointed as the third platoon leader by the company commander Luo Dun.There are two deputy platoon leaders, one is the veteran Miao Gui, the former squad leader of the first squad; the other is Yang Ning, the former squad leader of the third squad.Miao Gui leads the first class, Yang Ning leads the second class, and Li Jiansheng leads the third class.Chen Daosheng, the former deputy squad leader of the second class and a veteran member of the squad led by Li Fei, was promoted to the squad leader of the third class.This Chen Dao is familiar with everyone and is also from Yizhang, so he quickly integrated into the team.

Not to mention the improvement of the organizational structure of the Revolutionary Army of Workers and Peasants, but to say that Xu Kexiang and his troops finally arrived at Changgang Ridge. Although they got rid of the siege of King Zhu and Chen's troops, they were still not out of danger.Xu Kexiang reorganized the remaining troops a little, and ordered to build fortifications at Changgangling to resist against danger.He also ordered more sentries to be added at night until dawn the next day, and mobilized artillery to let Zhu and Chen Wang's troops taste the power of mountain artillery.Unexpectedly, when Zhu, Chen, and Wang saw Xu's troops seizing the top of Changgangling, they knew that their intention was to be condescending and prevent their own troops from attacking Germany. bandit army.On the one hand, the troops were ordered to divide into two groups. The main force crossed the river from Wuyang Division and took the main road to attack from the front;At this moment, he learned that the rear defense battalion led by Wang Guangyou, who had come to reinforce him, had already occupied the commanding heights of Changgangling. He had a plan in mind, so he ordered Wang Guangyou not to act for the time being, and launched a general attack after the main force arrived, dealing a fatal blow to the enemy .

At around [-] a.m. the next day, Zhu, Chen, and Wang led the main force to attack frontally.The two armies are at a stalemate between the valleys.At this time, the Yizhang peasant army led by Chen Dongri and Hu Shaohai crossed the mountains and ridges, and attacked the enemy from the flank.The enemy is hit in the stomach and back.At the critical moment, Wang Guangyou's defense battalion also played a role.The three groups of people joined forces to attack Xu Kexiang's troops, putting the enemy in a passive position.Seeing that there was no danger to defend Changgangling, Xu Kexiang urgently ordered his troops to break through.The Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army rose up to attack, Xu Kexiang's two main regiments suffered a devastating blow, and the remnants retreated towards Pingshi.

Pingshi is an important town located in the mountainous area of ​​northern Guangdong. There are more than 300 households, and it is the thoroughfare from south to north.This place has convenient transportation and a prosperous economy. It has always been an important place for military strategists to hoard supplies.Xu Kexiang placed the teaching group and the supplementary group behind Pingshi, and these two groups have not been able to get in touch with the front line.Under the influence of the division commander, the officers and soldiers were full of arrogance and had fun all day long, unprepared for the battle.They completely forgot that this was a battlefield, and regarded Pingshi Town as a love scene for flowers and willows.Xu Kexiang was defeated on the frontline battlefield. Seeing that the officers and soldiers of the two regiments were unprepared, he was furious and scolded the two regiment leaders bloody.After being scolded, the two regiment leaders did not dare to disobey the commander's order, and hurriedly mobilized troops to prepare for the pursuit of Zhu Chen's troops.But the two regiments hadn't gathered together yet, and there was intensive gunfire in the town.But it was Zhu and Chen who led their troops to rush forward like lightning.

The commander of the first battalion and the second company of the old 28th regiment led the second company to occupy the commanding heights on the left, and the commander of the first battalion and the third company Xiong Fulin led the third company to occupy the commanding heights on the right.Because the first company was a company of sharp knives, Company Commander Luo Dun led the entire third company directly into the middle of the town.Followed by the head of the old 28th regiment and the current chief of staff of the division, Wang Erzhuomo, led the Second Battalion and other departments.

Li Jiansheng led a battalion and a company of three platoons to break into Bangshi Town first.One is because their team has always been a teamwork, especially the third squad, which is dedicated to street fighting and jungle warfare. The first squad is veterans, and the strength of the second squad is brought out by Li Fei himself. He also wanted to display his aura; the latter had trained well and was focused on avenging the old chief Li Fei, so he did not give up and followed Li Jiansheng very closely.The three teams alternated cover and advanced.It doesn't seem like other troops charge straight ahead, and every time they are restrained by flowing guns, the charge is blocked!

Xu Kexiang's two regiments were not prepared to fight, so how could they withstand the attack of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army?Hastily responding to the battle is already caught off guard.The brave one had already fled, while the timid one blamed his parents for giving him two legs. He was either beaten to death or surrendered with his hands up.Xu Kexiang knew that the situation was over, so he hurriedly ran for his life.The terrain of Pingshi is not complicated, it is in the shape of a canyon without crossing roads.Xu Bu retreated steadily along the canyon.Zhu and Chen led their troops to chase and fight all the way.The enemy can only parry, but has no power to fight back.Xu Kexiang escaped in panic and arrived at Wushui Ferry.Abandoning the sedan chair, changing into plain clothes, rowing a small boat and fleeing for his life.Li Jiansheng hated this executioner deeply, not only because he caused the May [-]st Changsha May Day Incident, but also because his troops directly let his coach and brother Li Fei die. The words are caught, so the team is rushing forward.However, they chased all the way to the Lechang River, found the military uniform worn by Xu Kexiang, and knew that he had fled and could not be caught, so they stopped chasing and returned triumphantly.

It's a great victory in Pingshi.Li Jiansheng, who came from later generations and majored in history, certainly knew the significance of this battle.Because this battle dealt a devastating blow to the enemy, and it was the first big victory for the rebel army after entering southern Shonan, which was different from ordinary big victories!

The Pingshi victory captured more than a thousand officers and soldiers of Xu's department.The three-mile-long Pingshi Street is full of seized rifles, machine guns, mortars, ammunition, military equipment, cooking pots, etc.Among them, there are more than a thousand rifles, more than 30 mortars, thirteen horses, and countless bullets.According to Boss Zhu’s instructions, the captured weapons and ammunition were first used to equip the main force. At the same time, part of the equipment was used to equip the rear defense battalion led by Wang Guangyou and the independent battalion led by Li Guangzong. The rest were transported back to Yizhang City to form the Chinese Workers’ and Peasants’ Revolutionary Army. The third regiment of the first division.

Everyone was very happy, but Li Jiansheng was really not happy.Because in the process of chasing the enemy, the platoon he was in still had few casualties. Except for the two veterans Zhang Kejia and Li Zhi who didn't listen to his command, they were slightly injured, and the rest were all injured. The leader, the company commander Luo Dun, was seriously injured and was unable to command the battle for a short time; the two deputy company commanders Xu Haonian and Zuo Chunhai, the former were slightly injured, and the latter died.After Li Jiansheng paid a visit to Luo Dun, he drove to Guitang with the troops and held a victory ceremony.

Li Jiansheng also attended the meeting.He knew that according to the historical track, after the meeting, Mr. Zhu judged the situation and timely put forward the opinion that the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army should immediately march northward, occupy Chenzhou and Leiyang, and instigate the general riot in southern Hunan, and presided over the military-political joint meeting.
