Heroes of the Resistance Reborn

Chapter 90: Victory at Baishidu

But it was said that He Jian commanded the ministries to kill the generals all the way, because he did not encounter strong resistance from the Red Army, and the speed was very fast. In just three days, the ministries "occupied" a large area of ​​land in the Soviet area, including Changning, Guiyang and other Soviet area counties. Li Jiansheng

Let Huang Su lead the Red Division to Linwu to lurk and monitor the Kuomintang troops; he himself would lead the main Red Army

2nd Division Guo Hu, Li Qin Division, 3rd Red Division Lu Keshan, Guo Zhengjun Division, 4th Red Division Yandong, Su Sai Division, 5th Red Division Niu Dali, Bai Kaishan, Luo Dekai Division, and artillery regiment and special agent regiment of the division were secretly deployed

In Umeda, on the front line of welcoming the spring, and advancing towards both sides of Huangsha and Jinjiang River, we carried out mass work and prepared for the counter-encirclement and suppression campaign.

On March 10, three columns of He Jian's troops began to attack. Because the Red Army was well prepared, they often moved in advance, and He Jian's troops were defeated several times. In early April, Chairman Chiang personally ordered He Yingqin to go to Changsha to take charge of the Hunan-Jiangxi-Guangxi-Guangdong border.

The "encirclement" of the Soviet area

The "Encirclement and Suppression" was determined to start in the middle of the year. The various "encirclement and suppression" armies took the Yizhang area as the target of the joint attack and launched separate attacks. The Commander-in-Chief of the Army, Navy and Air Force was also established at the Hengyang Camp, with He Jian as the Camp Director; He Jian, Commander of the 91st Division;

He is quite the commander-in-chief of the front line.

Subsequently, various divisions of the enemy army attacked the Soviet area. In view of the enemy's "encirclement and suppression" layout with a wide front and the elongated battle line, the gap was too large, the troops were scattered, and the "encirclement and suppression" troops were not directly affiliated with Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, Li Jiansheng sent

Due to the complicated relations and difficulty in coordination, the General Front Committee meeting was held again on April 8 to carefully study the anti-"encirclement and suppression" operational plan. At the meeting, Li Jiansheng stated that in view of the current battlefield situation, which is conducive to the Red Army's counterattack,

It was decided to select the main force of the "encirclement and suppression" army close to the concentration area of ​​the Red Army as the target of annihilation, concentrate its forces to implement a breakthrough in the middle, split the entire deployment of the "encirclement and suppression" army, and then defeat them one by one to crush the "encirclement and suppression". In order to lose no opportunity

The enemy turned to counterattack. Li Jiansheng sent the 2nd Red Division to the Suyuan area to lure the enemy to the east and south to attack and monitor them. The main force was concentrated in Huangsha. The Tiantang area was hidden and waiting for political agitation and war preparations.

On April 13, various Kuomintang troops began to besiege Yizhang, the center of the Soviet area. Due to being harassed by a small group of Red Army troops under Li Jiansheng's department, progress was slow. Li Jiansheng received intelligence that the enemy's independent 22nd Brigade in Jiangxi wanted to invade Liangtian alone, and decided to

They concentrated their forces to first annihilate the lone army, then led their troops on a rapid march overnight and maneuvered to the destination to set up an ambush. However, because the 22nd Brigade had not left the source to consolidate its position, it was unable to annihilate the unit, so they gave up and looked for other opportunities and targets.

That night, Li Jiansheng analyzed the enemy's situation. He found that the brigade had been fighting at the front. Judging from the situation, it was likely to continue to advance, and it was likely to attack Taipingli and Baishidu in two or three days. His mind couldn't help but he deduced it in detail.

As soon as they got the answer, they had the bottom line, and they immediately sent orders to all units to set up ambushes as planned. At the same time, they ordered the 1st Red Division and the 2nd Red Division to mobilize reinforcements.

On April 15, the 22nd Brigade indeed crossed Taipingli and attacked Baishidu. Li Jiansheng boldly ordered: the Red 5th Division interspersed between Baishidu and Taipingli to cut off the connection between the 22nd Brigade and the enemy's forward consolidated positions, and launched a counterattack against the enemy's 22nd Brigade.

The 3rd Red Division and the 4th Red Division, as well as the units directly under the legion, concentrated their firepower to attack the enemy's 22nd Brigade in an effort to resolve the battle in one hour. The 1st Red Division and the 2nd Red Division responded from the side.

That afternoon, the 22nd independent brigade of the enemy in Jiangxi entered the ambush circle of Li Jiansheng's troops. First, they encountered explosions of landmines all over the mountains and plains, killing people and causing chaos among the troops. Then they were violently bombarded by the Red Army's artillery, and a large area fell down. Before the troops had time to close up, there were another attack from all directions.

Intensive gunfire rang out, and a large group fell. 22 Brigade Commander Yang Xiangyang came here

At this moment, I finally knew that something was wrong. I guessed that I had entered the encirclement of the red bandits. The whole brigade might be lost here. I immediately organized a counterattack and allowed the news station to ask for help from the surrounding troops through the radio. However, this was the closest.

The reinforcements were from the 7th Independent Division, which suffered a lot from the Red Army. Although they were advancing, they did not dare to go too far. While responding to the 22nd Brigade,

He also called other troops to come to support. However, the weapons of Li Jiansheng's troops had been replaced a long time ago, and they were no longer what they used to be. Now they issued a death order and just attacked fiercely. Unfortunately, an entire brigade was wiped out within an hour.

, Yang Xiangyang was killed. More than 1,200 of his troops were captured. As for the Du 7th Division, they first encountered the First Division of the 5th Red Division.

He stopped the attack, and later found the flags of the 1st Red Division and the 2nd Red Division on both sides. He was afraid that he would be stuck in them, so he did not dare to rescue Yang Xiangyang by force. He just sat back and watched as Li Jiansheng swallowed Yang Xiangyang alive. However, he also knew that even if he was strong,

Rescue is useless, because with the strength of his 7th Division, looking at the situation in front of him, it is indeed impossible to repel the Red 5th Division's attack.

When Li Jiansheng saw that Baishidu had achieved a great victory and had completely wiped out the 22nd enemy brigade, he was excited. He immediately sent his troops north and asked the division's teaching battalion and engineer battalion to guard the prisoners and clean the battlefield. All five of his divisions encircled the Du 7th Division in a roundabout way.

The strength of the 7th Independent Division was not strong in the first place, and they had wanted to run away for a long time. However, they did not expect that the 22nd Brigade would be gone so quickly. By the time they realized it, it was already too late. They wanted to withdraw, but they had already been caught by the 5th Red Division.

He retreated but could not retreat, lost and could not lose, and was extremely annoyed. Soon the Red 1st Division and the Red 2nd Division on both sides surrounded them and engaged their front troops. Knowing immediately that something was wrong, they first forcibly retreated, and then

He wanted to escape. But no matter how he escaped, he could not outrun the Red Army soldiers who were doing three rounds of 10 kilometers of cross-country with heavy loads every day, especially the Red Army soldiers who were winning the battle. As a result, they were blocked by the 5th Regiment of the Red 2nd Division who arrived first.

live.

The Du 7th Division wanted to attack forcefully and seize the road, but was pinned here. In just 15 minutes, the forward position where the two armies exchanged fire changed hands three times. The 5th Regiment was severely damaged, but it gave the main force time. It was only such a small amount of time.

All the divisions arrived and immediately went into battle, helping the 5th Red Regiment to stabilize its position. Wen Dong, commander of the Du 7th Division, led his troops to break out to the east, but the 3rd Red Division blocked it; to the west, the 1st Red Division blocked it;

The Red 5th Division and the Red 4th Division also caught up.

Five divisions of the Red Army concentrated and violent artillery fire. In less than 40 minutes, the entire 7th Division was wiped out and more than 1,300 people were captured. All officers at all levels from division commander Wen Dong on down were killed by snipers.

At that time, the rest of He Jian's troops still didn't know that Li Jiansheng had wiped out two of his troops, and all the troops came to reinforce him. On the way, they learned that both of his troops had been completely wiped out. All the troops stopped and retreated one after another, but Li Jiansheng didn't know

He led the Red 1 and Red 2 divisions to pursue them overnight, and ambushed two regiments of Guangdong Xiang Hanping's 5th Division again on the outskirts of Guiyang the next morning. Xiang Hanping led the rest of his troops to escape, allowing Li Jiansheng to gain hundreds more prisoners.

people.

After the battle, other "encirclement and suppression" troops who retreated deep into the Soviet areas on the border of Hunan, Jiangxi, Guangxi and Guangdong scrambled to evacuate and turned to defense outside the base area. At this point, the Eighteenth Red Army Corps led by Li Jiansheng broke through the Kuomintang troops' attack on Hunan.

The second large-scale encirclement and suppression campaign in the Jiangxi-Guangxi-Guangdong border Soviet area.
