Rebirth of the Anti-Japanese Heroes

Chapter 89 Troop Expansion Again

When Li Jiansheng told Xu Zhengfang about this idea, the old party member left excitedly.Li Jiansheng looked at his back with a smile, feeling warm in his heart, but felt that there was something behind him, turned his head slightly, and saw the five female soldiers sitting in a group looking at the map, they were the sisters of the Shen family , Yun family sisters and Lao Jue and other five little girls.At this moment, all five pairs of fiery eyes were cast on him.Li Jiansheng felt a little bad, turned his head away quickly, and was thinking of going out again, but just as the political commissar Huang Su came in.

Happiness can be read from that face.Huang Su's young and handsome face was full of strength, and now he was full of joy.As soon as he entered the door, he glanced at Li Jiansheng with a smile on his face, then at the five young girls behind him who were "concentrating" on studying the map, and said to Li Jiansheng with a smile: "You really belong to me!"

Li Jiansheng smiled slightly, knowing that he was referring to the annihilation of the enemy's three divisions this time, he was also very happy, and immediately said: "It's all the result of everyone's hard work!" Huang Su nodded.He also discussed with Li Jiansheng some things about stepping up the reorganization of the army.Regarding the transformation of captives, the two had the same views. In the end, Huang Su took charge of the work himself.Then go first.Looking at Huang Su's back, Li Jiansheng sighed: "It's great to have such a big brother-level political commissar in charge, I can be lazy!"

He thought like this, but he didn't know that the soldiers had already regarded him as a god. At this moment, his prestige was at the peak of the entire army.Not only because they defeated three divisions of the enemy, but just changed their outfits, which made everyone amused.Later, some soldiers chatted with other friendly and neighboring troops. This war must be discussed.In the end, everyone often ends with such a sentence: "Oh, I think that when we were the commander of the army, we could choose that weapon! Boy, the weapon we just seized from the enemy can only get [-] shots apart from training. , you can replace it with a new one! There are enough bullets!" At this sentence, the neighbors stopped immediately, and let the [-]th Army be born there proudly.As for the new backbones from the Central Soviet Area, after this battle, they also completely agreed with this young regiment commander and fully integrated into the Red Eighteenth Army.

Once the battle is over, it is time to rest, reorganize the army, reward conferences, convert captives, and so on.Li Jiansheng has no plans to establish a new organizational system.More than 6000 people have been transformed, but more than 5800 people are willing to join the Red Army.Li Jiansheng dispatched more than 5800 people, except for about 300 artillerymen and heavy firemen. Another 500 people were supplemented into the original formation units, and the remaining 4900 people were all dispersed and organized into 16 battalions. Into the total of 3 regiments from the red 18 regiment to the red 16 regiment.This glorious victory allowed Li Jiansheng's department to recruit nearly 1000 new troops. Except for the two new battalions equipped with the Red 1 Regiment and the Red 2 Regiment, the remaining 300 people were selected by various troops.Because there are enough weapons, and there are many backbones brought from the Central Soviet Area last time, and some party members among the soldiers captured this time—mainly from the 6th Division of the Cantonese Army—these new battalions are relatively weak. not weak.

In the year of 1932, everyone spent it in training!

Eat up three elite divisions in one fell swoop, which shocked the whole country.Whether it is the Kuomintang authorities or the Soviet areas of the Red Army.After receiving the news by telegram, Mao, Zhu, Zhou and other great men were extremely excited and sent congratulatory telegrams one after another.As for Generalissimo Jiang, he was so angry that he cursed once and made up his mind to eliminate these red bandits.

Obviously, he didn't want people like Li Jiansheng to have a good year.It was the third day of the New Year's Eve, and Li Jiansheng's intelligence clues sent news that the troops from Hunan, Jiangxi, Guangxi, and Guangdong provinces had begun to gather for the second joint encirclement and suppression of Li Jiansheng's revolutionary base.

On the one hand, Li Jiansheng stepped up the training of soldiers, and specially allocated 100 million silver dollars to the intelligence personnel on the secret front, and then asked the army's staff office to quickly make a detailed battle plan.

Three days later, the information came back, showing that the Jiangxi enemy's 22th independent division, the Jiangxi enemy's 91nd brigade, the Hunan enemy's 5st division and three local security regiments, the Guangxi enemy's 1th division and two local security regiments, the Guangdong enemy's Yu Hanmou 2st Army's 2nd Division, and the 5th Division of the 5nd Army of Xianghanping.A total of 1 divisions, 5 brigade, and 45000 local security regiments, with a total strength of more than [-] troops, nearly twice that of Li Jiansheng's troops, ordered He Jian, chairman of the Hunan Provincial Government, to carry out a large-scale encirclement and suppression of the area.

On March 3, troops drawn from Guangdong, Guangxi, and Jiangxi entered Hunan one after another and arrived at designated locations.Among them, the 4th Division of Guangxi was stationed in Yongzhou, the 5nd Guidong and 2th Divisions of Guangdong were stationed in Yongxing, the 5st Division of Hunan was stationed in Hengnan and Changning, the Jiangxi Du 91th Division was stationed in Leiyang, and the 7nd Brigade was stationed in Chenzhou.According to He Jian's meaning, each department was divided into three columns, the west column had the 22th division in Guangxi, the 5st division in Hunan, and a total of five security regiments, the middle column had Jiangxi's 91th independent division and the independent 5nd brigade, The Guangdong 7nd Division and 22th Division of the East Column are like a big net, from one side to the other, and everything they pass is destroyed!Of course, the target is still the center of the Hunan-Jiangxi-Guangxi-Guangdong border Soviet area, Yizhang County!

Li Jiansheng immediately ordered all the departments to gather near Yizhang, and he asked the military and political heads of the divisions to participate in the pre-war discussion.During the discussion, Bai Kaishan, Peng Zhi and others argued that they could go south to attack Shaoguan, or go north to attack Hengyang. This is a typical strategy of "surrounding Wei and saving Zhao". In order to force the Kuomintang troops to turn to the defense and give up their "encirclement and suppression".This view was also endorsed by several division chiefs.Li Jiansheng thought about it carefully, and felt that this plan seemed very good, but it was very difficult to implement: if he went north to attack Hengyang, if he made a careless move, he would not say that the attack could not be defeated, even if it was conquered, it would be very difficult. An attacking force would be trapped in a heavy siege, tantamount to perishing; as for going south to Shaoguan, the possibility would be higher, but once it did, it would be hard to say whether the enemy's siege could really be broken, and it might cause Yu Hanmou to annex Honghanping encirclement.Therefore, this plan is not good.

After thinking about it again, he proposed that under the circumstances that the Red Army and the Soviet area had not yet been consolidated, and the enemy was strong and we were weak, it was not appropriate to break away from the Soviet area and rush to attack big cities.In the face of the large-scale "encirclement and suppression" by the Kuomintang troops, we should take the initiative to retreat, lure the enemy into the Soviet area, discover and create the enemy's weaknesses, rely on the support of the people in the Soviet area, choose a battlefield that is conducive to the Red Army's operations, and concentrate our forces to counterattack in a timely manner. Annihilate the enemy in the movement to smash its "encirclement and suppression".

On March 3, at the Yizhang Conference, the Eighteenth Army of the Red Army adopted the strategic policy of "luting the enemy to go deep", and decided that the main force of the Red Army, including the First to Fifth Divisions of the Red Army, would all sneak into Linwu. Fighting in the mountainous area between Wu and Yizhang; the Red Sixth Division once again acted as a partial division, all sneaking into Mangshan Mountain, responsible for protecting various government agencies in the Soviet area.

According to this, the party, government, army, and people in the Hunan, Jiangxi, Guangxi, and Guangdong border Soviet areas acted quickly, carried out political mobilization, carried out fortified walls and cleared the fields, deployed guerrilla operations, and established organizations to support the Red Army's operations, etc., to prepare for the counter "encirclement and suppression".
