Sure enough, what happened next was consistent with the historical track that Li Jiansheng remembered: After two days of rest in Guitang, the troops immediately returned to Yizhang, occupied Yizhang again, and established a Soviet government on February 2, with Chen Youkui as the chairman.The main force then went north from Yizhang to occupy Chenxian County, and then divided troops to assist the peasant army in Zixing, Yongxing, Leiyang and other counties to capture the county seat and establish Soviet governments in these counties.

Before launching the troops, they also took a certain rest in Yizhang.

In mid-March, the Shonan Special Committee held the Shonan Workers, Peasants, and Soldiers Congress in Taipinglou, Yongxing County, and established the Shonan Soviet Government.And these peasant army units were also organized separately: the Leiyang peasant army was organized into the 3th Division of the Workers’ and Peasants’ Revolutionary Army; Chenxian County was compiled into the 4th Division of the Workers’ and Peasants’ Revolutionary Army; Army two independent regiments.Including Hu Shaohai's 7rd Division, all the newly formed Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army has a total of more than 3 people.

Li Jiansheng didn't cheer as loudly as the people around him, he just felt his nose a little sore, and the tears flowed down involuntarily.In fact, among so many people present, only he really knew what the historic handshake between Mao Weiren and Boss Zhu would mean to the Party and the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army!What does it mean to the whole of China!In fact, from this day on, the names of Mao and Zhu have been closely linked!

Who can believe it?I actually saw this scene?Oh that's true! ——Li Jiansheng was also very excited when he saw those two pairs of big hands holding each other, but most of them couldn't believe it.Just messed around like this for many days.Many people around him thought he was sick.Only he knows that he is excited!
