From to 1935 2020

Telegraph operator: "The Second Brigade has been out of contact for more than an hour and a half except for the attacked telegram sent at the beginning!"

"Trash! How did such a trash graduate from Whampoa!"

"Where's Peng Jinzhi? Can you get in touch? Order his independent brigade to move closer to the second brigade!"

Radio operator broadcasts.

Telegram: "Beep beep...."

"Brigade Commander Peng reported that the three regiments of his independent brigade have been divided by the bandits and the Communist Party, and the situation is very critical. The bandits have also dispatched armored vehicles and are attacking his brigade headquarters..."

"Nonsense! Are you blind? Where did those gangsters get the armored vehicles! Peng Jinzhi and Li Tiejun are cowards and trash! I will expel them all from Huangpu!"

"As for the supplementary brigade, what's the situation with Liao Ang..."

"The supplementary brigade lost contact from the very beginning..."

"..."

silence, terrible silence,

Silence, sudden silence.

In the room, even the sound of the telegraph disappeared.

One minute later, Chang Kaishen's voice suddenly roared like a volcano.

"You bastards, you are all lying to me! All of you are nothing but a bunch of shameless and disloyal cowards!"

Chen Bulei was trembling, shrinking his neck, not daring to speak.Chang Kaishen was pinned to the ground and beaten by Li Runshi many times in the past several times of encirclement and suppression against the Ruijin Soviet Area, and was humiliated in various ways, but he had never been so angry and lost his composure as he is today.

With his hands behind his back, he frantically turned around in the telegraph room, cursing as he turned:

"Damn Hippie, you are all cowards with nowhere to run! Wretches! Traitors! You should all be shot!"

Even Yang Yongtai, Chang Kaishen's most trusted right-hand man, just wanted to find a chance to escape from this house at this time.Because now Chang Bald is in a state of almost madness.As for Dai Yunong who accidentally entered here, he regretted that he should not have come early.

He chattered nervously, reading to himself.

"Mother Xipi, mother Xipi! These generals I promoted are all scum and trash! They have no honor at all! They have no shame at all! They call themselves generals only because they stayed in Huangpu Over the past few years, in fact, they have only learned how to drink soldiers’ blood, how to eat when they are empty, and how to play with women with greedy money! Apart from these, they know nothing! They are all pigs, and they should all be punished. Kill it and feed Li Runshi!"

"Mother Xipi, mother Xipi! My number one teacher in the world, when did it become like this! Li Runshi and Wu Hao, they must be laughing at me now! They are also Huangpu students, why did you follow them? People, one can fight better than the other? Why did I make it like this? It’s not your fault! The brains I keep and the generals I promote are all idiots, trash, cowards and traitors! There are so many Whampoa trash in the First Division Added up, they are not as good as Lin Husan! Compared with Jiang Xianyun, they are even more rubbish! If Wu Shan is still there, if he can still follow me..."

Dai Li curled his lips and muttered in his heart: "Jiang Xianyun also followed the Communist Party...you are really mad..."

Chang Kaishen muttered to himself.

"Last night and this morning, I told reporters that I captured Wu Hao and Li Runshi, and the bandits and communists are about to be completely finished! Big bandits and small bandits, dozens of big bosses are all going to be finished! Haha. ...Then, only two hours later, you guys told me here! In fact, it was my bandit suppression unit that was ruined! My first division, the Imperial Forest Army! Some of them were blown up in the newspapers these days Wu Chengren, who is the reincarnation of Wen Zhenggong, is a big joke! How can you tell me to face the reporters outside for a while? My face has been thrown away by you bastards!"

In the radio room, no one dared to breathe out, and Chen Bulei was so frightened that he almost peed out.

"Beep beep..."

The sound of a telegram broke the silence just now.

When the telegraph operator tremblingly took out the translated telegram and was about to hand it over to Chen Bulei, Chang Kaishen snatched it away. After a glance, he tore the telegram into pieces with his hands and roared:

"Wu Chengren, you are extremely shameless!"

At that time, he was so angry that one Buddha was born and the other two ascended to heaven, his bald forehead was emitting green smoke!If there is a bomb that will destroy the earth at this time, he will definitely press the detonation button without hesitation.

"I'm going to kill him, kill him!"

This is Hu Zongnan's "last" telegram to him, and it can be regarded as giving Chang Kaishen a step to step down before he dies.

In the telegram to the Chairman of the Standing Committee, Hu Zongnan, who had come to his senses, suddenly sent an important telegram to the Chairman of the Standing Committee with an "idea" before ordering his people to drop all the heavy equipment and retreat in an all-round way, revealing the key truth. :

"Commissioned seat, Wu Chengren from the 49th Division betrayed us. He betrayed the principal and colluded with the bandits!"

"The so-called Great Victory and the capture of Wu Hao and Li Runshi were all a huge scam set up by Wu Chengren in collusion with the bandits after his betrayal."

This is the most important thing!

Hu Zongnan is not good at fighting, but he is unusually sober when it comes to "finding the emperor's heart".

"We must not let the committee take the blame! Because if the committee takes the blame, it will definitely throw the blame away! And it will be thrown on me, the leader of the defeated army! If you really take the blame, you will die!"

"Brother Cheng, don't blame me for disregarding the friendship of Huangpu! If you don't "become" in this matter, I will really want to be "benevolent"!"

Therefore, Wu Chengren, who was defeated one step before him and sent so many "great victory telegrams", was hung up by Hu Zongnan in advance to "carry the pot" for the committee.

Since Hu Zongnan was in a hurry to retreat at that time, this last telegram was clearly sent to the whole country.The Chairman of the Standing Committee received it, and of course the radio station at the Red Army Headquarters at Dajie Temple, which was [-] miles away, also received it.

A dead fellow is not a poor fellow, before he was completely finished, Hu Zongnan unceremoniously stabbed his brother first!

At this time, Wu Chengren and Wang Tianyuan were chasing Wu Hao with snot and tears begging...

"Director Wu, Director Wu, for the sake of teachers and students in Whampoa for many years, give me a hand! I want to join the party and participate in the revolution!"

Wang Tianyuan also repented and shouted: "Director Wu, I have awakened! I want to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, and I want to be a new man..."

****

"Little Huang, why, why do we have to make this scissors pose! It feels weird."

"Brother Hu, it's not easy for so many Whampoa students to gather here. The rare Whampoa Alumni Association! You keep a straight face all day long, too serious, too serious, take it easy, take it easy. ...as long as you pose like this, I will cover all your fried soybeans for you in the next year! How about it?"

When a certain young man maliciously encouraged Lin Husan to pose as a "Secondary Two" for taking pictures, a whole company of "Huangpu students" , lined up in four rows, listening to training.

Among them, Hu Zongnan and Wu Chengren, who had the highest position with a tie on their right hand, stood at the forefront of the four rows of Huangpu students as leaders.They are accepting the "teaching" from their former "Director Wu".

No wonder there are so many Huangpu students here.The First Division is where Chang Kaishen started his career. From the division commander to the company commander, all staff officers are all Whampoa students!Even at the rank of platoon leader, there are quite a few people from Whampoa! The 49th Division is almost there, but the officers above the battalion and regiment level are basically Huangpu students!

Even the old nest of the first division was taken away by Dong Zhentang and Yu Tianyun. All the "Whampoa people" in the whole division were counted afterwards. Only one regiment leader named Zhang Zhonglin escaped - he was staying at the headquarters in Songpan at the time.When Dong Zhentang and Yu Tianyuan led the army to besiege Songpan, he saw that the situation was not good, grabbed a horse, and fled westward with the local Tibetan cavalry to Xikang.It can be regarded as the last single seedling of Huangpu in the first division that was wiped out by the whole army. (This person is the famous wife-killing Zhang in history)

So many Whampoa students gathered together to listen to Director Wu's speech. The last time they experienced such a scene was almost ten years ago, before the Northern Expedition.

Wu Hao, who was speaking to this group of people, explaining the Red Army’s captive policy and propagating revolutionary ideas, did not notice that another student of his finally couldn’t resist the temptation of “one year’s full package of fried soybeans” and quietly walked over , stood behind him with his back to him, then raised his right hand, placed it at chest height, with the index finger and middle finger in a scissors victory pose.

Almost at the moment of posing, several 21st century video cameras, mobile phones, and digital cameras, which had been prepared long ago, clicked and snapped the shot.

Due to the advanced camera equipment in the 21st century, Wu Hao did not notice what happened behind.Lin Husan, who had done something wrong, left in shame, and the photographers with cameras also quietly retreated.Afterwards, Luo Binghui walked over with a "dragon and tiger pace" attitude. Not only him, but also Xu Shuai, Liu Shuai, Ye Shuai, Nie Shuai and many others lined up in a row, with their backs to Wu Hao and Wu Hao. "Many Whampoa students" took a "group photo" together.

All of this was naturally arranged by Huang Ke.

The cameraman who took the picture was a British reporter who happened to be interviewing with Hu Zongnan's first division.Hu Zongnan has such a false name, he always likes to find reporters to pose for photos to promote, and he did not forget to bring reporters when he went to Sichuan to suppress bandits.The British reporter followed him on a long march from Songpan to Baozuo area.When the First Division was destroyed, the British reporter had a bright head and did not retreat with him. Instead, he calmly stayed in the division headquarters in the stockade and waited to be captured by the Red Army—he knew that the defeat of Hu Zongnan's troops must be This is a big piece of news, if you keep it, you can interview the following "bandit army" immediately.

I have to admit that the foreign journalists at this time were still very courageous and upright in some places, and they were a few times higher than the BBC juniors who "invented" news later.

The Red Army did not treat him badly after they captured him, but Huang Ke's second-school spirit broke out after the big victory. Under his instigation, he first bought Minister Zhuo with two Hardman cigarettes, and Minister Zhuo came forward to demand this. The British journalists helped to take some "victory photos", and of course the British journalists eagerly agreed.

Then, there was this photo called "Whampoa Alumni Association"!

However, this photo, in the end, did not follow Huang Ke's idea, and was published on the headlines of newspapers everywhere.

The reason was that Wu Hao, who was discovered, stopped him-the reason was that he insulted the captive's personality too much.

Huang Ke's actions are firstly humiliating, which violates the Red Army's policy, and secondly, he is worried that these photos will be released, and the chairman will smash the pot after seeing them, and don't want these people...

Therefore, the film was destroyed on the spot!

Huang Ke was also "criticized" afterwards, saying that his actions violated the Red Army's captive policy.Along with him, those who were criticized were also those future marshals who were persuaded by him to mess around together.

Fortunately, what Comrade Wu Hao destroyed was only film photos. When the British reporters took pictures, Huang Ke and Minister Zhuo also secretly took many photos with 21st century cameras. Hidden——Although these future marshals were trained by Wu Hao to nod and admit their mistakes, they were actually very happy in their hearts.

The relevant photos were reprinted and processed many years later before they were developed and released to the public.

During the encirclement and annihilation of the First Division, the troops received instructions to capture as many officers as possible, and the purpose was to exchange these "disciples of the Son of Heaven" with Chang Kaishen: members, captured Red Army, etc.In the Songpan-Baozuo battle, the Red Army won a complete victory.The complete destruction of Hu Zongnan's group meant that Chang Kaishen's control over Northwest China was completely lost.Under the ebb and flow, the current Red Army's combat power has almost doubled after receiving the super blood pack of the first division!

In the entire northwest and in the provinces adjacent to northern Sichuan, the Kuomintang Central Army's mobile forces here have almost returned to zero after the war.The rest are only the "second- and third-rate" warlords such as the Northwest Sanma and Yang Hucheng. (The "Three Horses" in 1935 were not strong at this time, just because of the special organizational structure, coupled with the sparsely populated land, the bedbugs that could be defeated but were difficult to eliminate)

The current Red Army, as long as it goes out of Sichuan, can easily win a large piece of territory and establish a base in Shaanxi, Gansu, and Ningxia.Not only that, but the game of chess in the northern Sichuan area is also completely alive.After this battle in northern Sichuan, not only the main force of the Central Army was completely wiped out, but also various local forces in the area were also defeated by Peng Shuai's Red Army.

Here in northern Sichuan, the traffic is really bad, and there is a large area of ​​no man's land, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack.The Red Army took the lead to occupy this place. As long as there are about 2000 "guerrilla" troops left, it can easily control this place, making it a natural barrier for the adjacent southern Gansu region.

You must know that the entire northern Sichuan region is actually not suitable for large troops to station and fight for a long time.Even if Chang Kaishen mobilized tens of thousands of troops to northern Sichuan, and thousands of Red Army men went into the mountains, they could starve to death just by circling around. ——Because there are few people here, it is difficult to raise food, and the rear transportation will drive people crazy——Hu Zongnan can invest 5 people in the Songpan area, which is his limit, but this is also the advantage of Gannan's support. But in fact, it can only be supported for a few months, and the logistics will be driven crazy after a long time.

But the Red Army is about to leave Sichuan, and Gannan will start.If Chang Kaishen wanted to enter northern Sichuan, he could only transfer troops and deliver supplies from Sichuan. That was a more difficult supply route, with more and more difficult grasslands and large uninhabited mountains, than the Songpan-Gannan line.

What's even better is that in history, Chang Kaishen was able to finally squeeze out Liu Xiang and annex the whole of Sichuan. The very important reason was that in the next year, the Fourth Front Army of the Red Army went south and the Sichuan Army fought at Baizhangguan.After that battle, the Fourth Red Army suffered heavy losses, but the Sichuan Army also had a hard time, so Chang Kaishen was allowed to pick the peaches.

But now, Chang Kaishen's two major reliance on suppressing the Sichuan army, Hu Zongnan's entire army in the north of Sichuan was wiped out!Xue Yue is the only remaining dragon crossing the river...

Sichuan, which was already half-eaten, suddenly became a raw rice in his mouth...  

The Sichuan army is a family dog. After learning that Hu Zongnan's entire army was wiped out, the various departments of the Sichuan army who were finally about to send troops stopped collectively at the first time, and then waited to see Chang Kaishen's jokes together.

Chang Kaishen could desperately ask Xue Yuebing to leave Baizhang Pass and go north to pursue and suppress them.

But not to mention that the current Red Army's combat power has skyrocketed after eating Hu Zongnan's big blood bag.

Even if he can defeat the Red Army, how can Xue Yue's troops, who have suffered heavy losses, suppress these Sichuan army's second and fifth boys?

The entire army of the First Division was annihilated, and the big changes caused by this were not limited to Sichuan and Northwest China.

Yan Xishan's tribe who was defeated by the bald head not long ago, Li Zongren's tribe who was watching a joke in Guangxi, Chen Jitang's tribe in Guangdong, and various other warlords who were bought by Chang Kaishen's "silver coin bomb" all became active at this time .

Everyone, everyone is looking forward to another defeat by Principal Chang!

-------------------- Chapter 73 From Northern Shaanxi to Gannan --------------------

From northern Shaanxi to southern Gansu

On August [-]th, Chang Kaishen finally "confirmed" the news that his own son, the First Division, had been wiped out.

From Baozuo, the Red Army used the radio station that had sent countless "Baozuo Great Victory" telegrams to send a notification of the results of the Songpan-Baozuo Battle (clear code) to the whole country.Chang Kaishen also specially sent a copy here, but it was specially encrypted and sent with the telegram code seized by Hu Zongnan...

From August 49th when the vanguard of the Red Army walked out of the grassland and blitzed the battle of Baozuo, to the evening of August 49th, Dong Zhentang and Yu Tianyun's "partial division" captured Songpan. It took six days for the Red Army to wipe out all the first divisions of the Central Army's ace main force. , and most of the [-]th Division-compared with the first division that was taken over by the pot, the [-]th Division is lucky in that it still left a regiment in its hometown in Fujian, and finally it still has a little foundation.

As for the first division, there was only a cavalry company of more than [-] people in Songpan. Relying on its strong mobility, when it found that the battle was not going well, it fled to Xikang with the Tibetan army, barely leaving "a hair".When the first division entered Sichuan, it originally brought a cavalry regiment with it. Except for a reconnaissance cavalry company in Songpan, the rest followed Hu Zong to the north and south. "use.As a result, it basically did not play any role and was completely destroyed.On the contrary, after the war, the Red Army added a strengthened cavalry battalion for no reason.And its headquarters in Tianshui, Gannan, was also taken away by the Red Army after half a month.

Chang Kaishen lost more than 7000 mobile field troops from the two main central army units alone.In addition to the loss of local miscellaneous troops, Tibetan chieftain soldiers, etc. who died in battle, were captured, disappeared (mainly due to routs), and lost nearly [-] soldiers in six days.After the war, according to the statistics of various departments of the Red Army, more than [-] firearms of various types were seized, more than [-] artillery pieces of various types, and thousands of war horses (including supply mules and horses).Since the main forces of the two central armies were defeated too quickly (all were wiped out within two to three hours), very little ammunition was consumed and great capture was made.

Moreover, as Chang Kaishen's son's unit, the guns and guns of the First Division are of the best quality.Many weapons were even "ordered" from abroad just last year, and all units of the Red Army applauded after using them!

After the war, the various units of the Red Army, which were still short of guns and ammunition, collectively "fat" a lot.Not only did all the main combat troops "refit" on a large scale, not to mention that the main force was "fully equipped with firearms", they even distributed the eliminated redundant guns to the women's divisions of the former Red Fourth Front Army, forming a women's combat group .

Kaishen Logistics is so good!Compared with him, the ammunition that Huang Ke bought for zero yuan in the foreigner's warehouse in the Shanghai Concession was nothing compared to him.

Soon after the battle ended, the top Red Army officials announced the list of captured Cannon Party officials to the whole country by radio, and through "special channels", they asked Chang Kaishen to exchange prisoners.

What the Red Army requested to exchange were Communist Party members who were detained in various places, especially more than 500 officers and soldiers of the Red Tenth Army who were being detained in Nanchang, including Fang Zhimin.Historically, Comrade Fang Zhimin was killed by Chang Kaishen on August 8th.But in this plane, because the battle of Baozuo broke out on August [-]th, Chang Kaishen saw that "the situation in suppressing the bandits is very good", and it is expected to wipe out the Red Army in Baozuo and completely wipe out the bandits and communists.

The reason was: he wanted to wait until after the war to gather all the top leaders of the Red Army together, and the bandit leaders to line up "neatly" in a row on a larger scale, so that reporters from all over the country could "collectively watch" He took the opportunity to show his "great feats of suppressing bandits" to the world.

Then, everyone understands...

The scene of "the leader of the bandit communist party neatly gathered in the prison" did not happen, but his own son, the first division and all the Huangpu students of the 49th division, reunited in the prisoner camp of the "bandit communist". The director of the department held a "Ten Years Gathering Classmates Reunion".
