As the main force of the Independent Division successfully met in Shuicheng, many of the people in Shuicheng were surprised when they saw the tens of thousands of prisoners escorted into the city.∈♀ In their opinion, when did the Red Army's combat effectiveness become so strong?

According to the government's propaganda, the Red Army was beaten by them in Guizhou. But why does it seem that the Central Army suffers whenever they see the Red Army coming to the Water City? This makes many people feel that they are afraid that the government will brag!

Faced with these curious eyes of the people, He Zhengdao, who finally met with the political commissar, was also welcomed by the political commissar in the rear. This time, annihilated a division of Zhou Hunyuan, undoubtedly greatly increased the morale of the Red Army!

‘Teacher, this battle was so beautiful!’

Listening to what Yao Shengjun said, He Zhengdao also smiled and said, "Victory is my duty. It's just a political commissar. How many prisoners can be selected from it to supplement our division depends on your ability.

In order to distance ourselves from the pursuers behind as soon as possible, I am afraid I will not give you too long. For more than 10,000 prisoners, I hope to recruit half of the soldiers to join our team. In this way, our division will be truly full."

‘Don’t worry, I will do my best! The political education of the New Regiment has been completed in the past few days and the results are pretty good. If you agree, you can add the new recruits of the New Regiment to our main regiment.’

‘Of course I agreed! After this battle, we still lost a lot of soldiers. I plan to hold a funeral for them tomorrow in Water City. The wounded should also be cured as soon as possible.

If you really can't take it away, you have to contact the local guerrillas and send them to the mountains to recuperate. Next, we must speed up, otherwise we will not know when we want to meet with the main force.'

‘Okay! I will arrange these things!’

After the two had a brief conversation outside the city, He Zhengdao, who returned to the headquarters of the city, also quickly said: "Give power to the headquarters and inform our headquarters of the battle situation. In addition, tell the head of the headquarters that the independent division needs at least two days to rest."

‘Yes, the teacher!’

With this telegram that received the victory, he sent it to the headquarters where he had just crossed the Jinsha River. Zhou Enlai, who received the telegram, looked at the telegram just translated, and slapped the table excitedly and said, "This battle is beautiful!"

Looking at Zhou Enlai so excited, the officers and soldiers in the Telegram Room were also very happy. Although the Independent Division was a newly formed unit, this unit was already a heroic unit of Lian Zhan and Lian Win in the hearts of these telegraphers.

When the telegram was transferred to Mao Taizu and General Zhu, Mao Taizu was also very happy and said, "This battle was good! I annihilated this main division of Zhou Hunyuan, and also copied the Liupan Guizhou Army reorganization division.

In this way, there are more routes to break through in front of the Independent Division. Zhou Hunyuan, who is also the mortal enemy of our Red Army, finally fell into our hands this time. It seems that our Chairman Jiang is going to be sad!"

‘Yes! As an opponent, Zhou Hunyuan is indeed a rare general. Unfortunately, like other Central Army generals, he only knows how to follow his orders and act as the master of Chiang Kai-shek. Alas!’

Mr. Zhu, who had dealt with Zhou Hunyuan many times, naturally knew that Zhou Hunyuan had good combat command capabilities. If he hadn't wanted to stick to Douqing this time and waited for the other reinforcements to join the siege, he would probably not have ended up like this.

At this time, looking at the march routes of several Central Army, Mao Taizu said with some concern: "Boss, do you think the Independent Division can stay in Shuicheng for two days? The 86th Division of the Central Army is not far from them."

‘Old Mao, I think I should believe Xiao He. He should know better than us. The situation they are facing at this moment. If they are not sure, I believe he will not make such a decision. It would be better for him to decide on this matter!’

‘Okay, Enlai, convey our next march route to the Independent Division. Order them to leave Guizhou as soon as possible and strive to join the main force in Sichuan. The current situation of enemy and us is not yet relaxed!’

‘Okay, I’ll send them the telegram later!’

After receiving the main marching route from the headquarters, He Zhengdao felt that the current plan of the main Red Army was still hoped to join forces with the Red Fourth Front Army. However, He Zhengdao knew that the current Red Fourth Front Army was afraid that he would not respect the central government very much!

However, He Zhengdao would not show this kind of worry. He ordered the troops to rest and recuperate, reinforcements from Nayong's side. After learning that Zhou Hunyuan had been defeated, he decisively stopped and continued to move forward.

As for Xue Yue, who was far away in Guiyang, facing this ending, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's over! I want to encircle and annihilate this independent division of the Red Army, but I'm afraid there is no chance. Next, how can I explain to the Chairman!"

Faced with this current situation, even if Xue Yue did not want to admit defeat, he had to admit that the situation at this moment was very unfavorable to them. In particular, the distance between the independent division and the main force of the Red Army who are now advancing into Sichuan is no longer too far.

Although there are many Yunnan and Sichuan troops among the two troops. Xue Yue is very clear that the combat effectiveness of the Yunnan and Sichuan troops guarding the border is simply unreliable. It is impossible to snipe the independent division!

At present, most of the main forces of the Yunnan Army have been transferred to near Kunming. The main forces of the Sichuan Army are also dealing with the Red Fourth Front Army entering Sichuan. Only a few garrison troops are left. How can we resist the main forces of the Red Army entering Sichuan?

Although he knew he was powerless, Xue Yue still ordered the Yunnan Army Long Yun, Sichuan Army Liu Xiang and Liu Wenhui's troops to mobilize heavy troops to encircle the Independent Division on the Yunnan-Sichuan border. As long as there is a front-line opportunity, the Independent Division cannot easily join the main force of the Red Army.

It was just before the Independent Division's troops began to advance. The First Regiment of the Independent Division and the Reconnaissance Battalion had secretly opened the Water City after a day of renovation in the Water City. What they had to do was to open the way for the subsequent main forces.

After two days of rest and through complaint activities, Yao Shengjun successfully selected more than 5,000 ordinary soldiers from the prisoners and joined the new recruits with only the instructor team. The other prisoners were also transferred to the logistics force.

As for the eliminated prisoners, He Zhengdao ordered the Second Regiment to drive them all to Douqing and accompany Zhou Hunyuan there. The food and food resources given to them could only last for three days at most.

If their reinforcements cannot arrive within three days, it will not matter He Zhengdao. Most of these prisoners who were released were veterans and prisoners with bad habits.

In addition to a group of officers who were truly loyal to the Central Army, other officers with a minor guilt were sent to the logistics brigade by Yao Shengjun to transport supplies for the independent division. When they were released, it depends on their luck!

After the main force of the Red Army began to set off from the Shuicheng and moved towards Liupan, Xue Yue, who learned the news, ordered Nayong's encirclement and suppression troops to pursue the attack. However, this army had just walked out of the Shuicheng and was beaten back in a panic.

Faced with these reorganizers with poor combat power, Xue Yue seemed very powerless. But for their successful recapture of the Water City, Xue Yue couldn't make things difficult for them too much. After all, these guys are all local tyrants!

But when he learned that Zhou Hunyuan was unable to rescue him due to his serious injury, Xue Yue also knew that he could not get rid of this trick. In Chairman Jiang's heart, this was his confidant beloved!

After receiving the telegram from Xue Yue, Chairman Jiang was inevitably furious again. After venting it, Chairman Jiang also knew that it was unlikely that he would want to encircle and annihilate this independent division.

But even so, Chairman Jiang still ordered: "Order Xue Yue and Long Yun to mobilize heavy troops to advance into Sichuan. Be sure to annihilate the main force of the Red Army and this independent division in Sichuan.

If they fail again, don't blame me for engaging in military law. Niang Xipi, we have the advantage of military strength and our materials and equipment are a hundred times stronger than the Red Army. Why, we are always defeated?"

No one dared to answer this kind of question, the generals of the Central Army who were furious. But many generals felt that Chairman Jiang's plan to annihilate the Red Army in Sichuan was probably not very likely to succeed.

The elite Central Army troops who were annihilated by the independent division alone reached 30,000 to 40,000 people in three divisions. The main force of the Central Army they participated in the encirclement and suppression was actually not much left in Guizhou. At this moment, how many Red Army troops were in Sichuan?

Let’s not talk about the Red Front Army and the Independent Division, the Red Fourth Front Army that entered Sichuan alone had a force of up to 70,000 to 80,000. For the Sichuan Army, which had a simple equipment, they had no advantage in fighting against the Red Fourth Front Army.

It is one thing, but now Chairman Jiang’s orders issued in anger must be firmly implemented. At this time, no one dares to touch his bad temper. But many Central Army generals remembered the Red Army Independent Division.

The troops formed by a Red Army captured by the Central Army were able to cause so much trouble for them. Its commander He Zhengdao also became the target of investigation by the Central Army's intelligence department.
