Chapter 40 Concerns of Headquarters

After the reorganization and management of the prisoners, He Zhengdao, who acted as a white-faced person, was intimidated by fear, Yao Shengjun, as the political commissar, soon arrived at the camp where the prisoners were carrying steaming food with the officers and soldiers in charge of logistics.`

Looking at the vegetable pot, there was actually a tempting meat, many Central Army prisoners thought that the food of these Red Army was so good? Even if they were in the Central Army, it would not be easy to eat meat.

It seemed that these Central Army prisoners were greedy for the meat flavor in the pot. Yao Shengjun smiled and said, "This is the horse meat that was killed during the battle today. Usually, we marched and fought, and it was not easy to eat such a meal."

After Yao Shengjun said this, these Central Army prisoners truly believed that the Red Army battalion commander who arranged the food for them did not violate He Zhengdao's orders and provided them with the same food as the Red Army.

This equal food arrangement still makes many Central Army feel that these Red Army may not be as hateful and terrifying as they imagined. If it were the Red Army captured by them, it would be great to have a sip of water.

When the prisoners started to eat, He Zhengdao, who also returned to the temporary station, looked at He Xiaoshan who came in with the food, and smiled and said, "Have you eaten by yourself?"

‘I’ve eaten it! I haven’t eaten meat for a long time. The horse meat is very stewed tonight. Brother, you can eat more too!’

Usually, when outsiders are there, He Xiaoshan will also call He Zhengdao "Captain". Now that there are only two people, He Xiaoshan will call He Zhengdao "Brother". He Zhengdao also feels very comfortable with this title.

Even if the two have no blood relationship, since they have recognized He Xiaoshan as their younger brother, He Zhengdao will truly treat him as their own brother. If possible, He Zhengdao will keep him by his side.

Just as He Zhengdao was having a meal, the Red Second Army Command, far away in Xiangxi, General He felt a little incredible about the news provided by the Jingzhou guerrillas today.

Looking at the equally incredible political commissar, President He asked: "Political Commissar, do you think this news is credible?"

‘Although it’s a bit unbelievable, I still believe in Comrade Xu Sicheng’s report. Based on the information he provided, isn’t it a coincidence with our previous suspicion that there was a big problem near Jingzhou?’

If someone else reported this news, Ren Bishi might not feel it was credible. But Xu Sicheng, who reported the information today, was the backbone of the Red Army sent by the Military Region to Jingzhou area to form a guerrilla area behind enemy lines.

Ren Bishi, the Red Army soldiers who went back to the headquarters to report the situation, asked individual questions one by one. The conclusion was that a regiment formed entirely by scattering and captive Red Army, looting the city of Jingzhou where the Hunan Army.

‘Then what you mean is, let’s ask the headquarters for a telegram? At least the political commissar and head of this group, I believe someone at the headquarters should know about it. If it is true, it will be really rare!’

‘Okay, then just ask by telegram! But what I have more trouble now is how to take out that batch of supplies. More than 3,000 rifles, and a batch of machine gun ammunition and food are really important to us.’

He had basically believed that Ren Bishi, who reported to the guerrilla captain, also attached great importance to the batch of supplies hidden in the mountains of Jingzhou. With these supplies, the Second Red Army could expand at least one main force.

The most important thing is that the food and ammunition hidden there are exactly what the Second Red Army urgently needs. However, around Jingzhou City, the Hunan Army has gathered heavy troops. It is really difficult to get the batch of supplies successfully!

Listening to this, President He smiled and said, "Don't worry, as long as this group really exists, I believe we can always find opportunities to go around Jingzhou. What's more, He Jian won't stay there all the time."

As the commander-in-chief of the Second Red Front Army, General He naturally knew the importance of this batch of supplies to them. If the news was confirmed, General He felt that in order to successfully get the materials back, it was also very necessary to fight with the Hunan Army.

At this moment, the main force of the Red Army, far away in Zunyi, had just held a very significant meeting. During this meeting, Mao Taizu, who had been excluded from command decisions, eventually regained the command of the army.

Regarding the resolutions and documents that were brought to the various troops after the meeting, many Red Army commanders and soldiers felt that this should have been like this long ago. After fighting along the way, many commanders knew that there were major problems with the command from above.

According to the decision of the Zunyi Conference, the Red Army decided to establish a new Soviet base in the southwest or northwest of Chengdu. However, the current situation is still very unfavorable for the main force of the Red Army.

Although the Red Army won consecutive battles after advancing into Guizhou. But Mao Taizu and others knew that with the entry of the main force of the Central Army, the various national armies that followed them would implement new encirclement and suppression strategies, and they would be afraid that they would continue to stay in Zunyi.

Just as Mao Taizu, Mr. Zhu and others began to discuss the next route of action, they also found it unbelievable to Zhou Enlai, who was responsible for the management of confidential telegraphs at the headquarters, when they looked at the telegrapher's telegraph telegraphs.

Even though it was already late at night, he still put on a piece of clothing and came to the combat command room where he had not rested and was still studying the map. Looking at Mao Taizu and others discussing the next combat plan, he smiled and said, "Old Mao, look at this telegram?"

‘What telegram? It’s worth sending it here so late? Is it a good news?’

‘Absolutely, you will know after reading it. If the news is true, you should be very happy!’

'oh!'

Mao Taizu, who received the telegram, read the telegram from the Second Red Front Army, and said in disbelief: "Is this true?"

At the surprised expression that Mao Taizu showed, Mr. Zhu also said with interest: "Old Mao, what is true or false?"

When President Zhu received the telegram, he said unexpectedly: "He Zhengdao, this kid has such skills? It seems that he really gave him the right one when he sent him to his fellow villager's house."

‘Yes! If this news is true, then this is really a great news. A team of more than 2,000 people really don’t know how this kid did it. This is more than 2,000 living lives!’

Mao Taizu felt very uncomfortable when he thought of the Red Army who had been defeated and captured since the Long March. Even if he knew that there were undead people in the war.

But after fighting along the way, there were so many Red Army commanders and fighters. Every time he thought of it, he felt uncomfortable. Now he suddenly heard that He Zhengdao had rescued more than 2,000 captured Red Army soldiers, and he was really too happy.

At this time, Zhou Enlai also smiled and said, "I have checked the files before. The political commissar of this regiment is the political commissar of the 1st Division of the 2nd Division that the Red First Army was broken up by the Xiangjiang River. At that time, their division commander felt distressed for a long time!"

According to the list of regiment cadres from the Second Red Army, after investigation, Zhou Enlai found that these people were real. But everyone was listed as dead or missing persons during the Long March battle.

In that situation of rushing, it is normal for some people to count the number of people. Although this group has only more than 2,000 people, these people are extremely precious to the Red Army.

‘Enlei, please send Mr. He a telegram to tell him that the people in the group are all real. In addition, contact the group as soon as possible to see where they are currently.

If possible, we will contact the regiment as soon as possible. At that time, our next combat plan may play a significant role. I think the Central Army should not have the existence of this regiment yet.’

‘Okay, I'll go to the telegram now. It seems that it's a bit in a difficult situation to let that kid be a guard company commander. It's really hard to believe how that kid rescued so many people. However, their current situation is probably very dangerous!’

Thinking of the current surrounding Guizhou, there are large armies gathering. Once the whereabouts of the regiment are exposed, there are afraid that the entire army will be wiped out at any time. Thinking of this, Zhou Enlai is also a little worried.

When the Second Red Army received a telegram from Zhou Enlai. They also began to contact the delegation based on the radio contact signal provided by Xu Sicheng who was sending the letter.

But after the call, the telegrapher said in a little frustrated: "Boss, the call has not been answered, the other party's radio station should be in a silent state. What should I do? Continue to call?"

Hearing this news, Mr. He thought for a while and said, "Forget it! I guess it's not convenient for them to turn on the radio at any time. You can call again at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning to see if there is any response."

'yes!'

It is indeed too late to understand that this time is indeed too late. For a regiment hidden behind enemy lines, it is very likely to be in a marching state. In this case, it is normal for the radio to not turn on.

In fact, Mr. He didn't know at all, that this was what He Zhengdao intended. The reason was that although he remembered the time of the Zunyi Conference, he was still a little worried about whether history would change.

Therefore, if you delay one or two days and get in touch with the main force, perhaps in He Zhengdao's opinion, Commissioner Mao should return to his position as a military commander at that time. At that time, he doesn't have to worry about being blindly commanded by those leaders who don't understand military affairs!
