Heroes of the Resistance Reborn

Chapter 41: The truth behind a public case

Li Jiansheng still knows the designation of the Seventh Red Army. This army has historically been one of the main forces of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.

In fact, as early as February 1933, according to the order of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission, the Red Tenth Army was transferred from Northeast Jiangxi to the Central Soviet Area and incorporated into the First Red Army. On June 7, the Central Revolutionary Military Commission decided to reorganize the Red Tenth Army into

The Seventh Red Army. On October 28, the Seventh Red Army was officially established. The commander of the Red Army was Xun Huaizhou, and the political commissar Xiao Jinguang

.Under the jurisdiction of the 19th Division: Commander Xun Huaizhou (concurrently served as the successor of Zhou Jianping), and political commissar Xiao Jinguang (concurrently served as the successor of Lu Zhenqiu); the 20th Division: Commander Li Jukui (concurrently appointed as the successor of Su Yudai), and political commissar Li Xiangwu;

The Fourteenth Division: Division Commander Zhou Zikun (later Peng Shaohui), political commissar Tan Zhenlin (later Cheng Cuilin).

July 6, 1934. In order to reduce the military pressure on the Central Soviet Area, the Seventh Red Army was reorganized into the "Northern Anti-Japanese Advance Team" in Ruijin, Jiangxi Province. It went to the Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi Soviet Areas. Commander-in-Chief Xun Huaizhou, Political Commissar Le Shaohua.

In October, he joined the Red Tenth Army in Chongxi, Jiangxi Province. According to the instructions of the Central Committee, the two units were combined into the Red Tenth Army. They continued to move north. The Seventh Red Army was reorganized into the 19th Division. The division commander found

Huaizhou, political commissar Nie Hongjun, chief of staff Wang Ruchi. On December 14, they were defeated at Tanjiaqiao in Huangshan, Anhui. They returned to Jiangxi. In January 1935, the Red Cross Corps was surrounded by the National Revolutionary Army in Huaiyu Mountain.

Most of the troops collapsed. Only about a thousand people escaped under the leadership of Su Yu, Liu Ying and others. Later, the troops persisted in guerrilla warfare in the local area until 1937 when they were reorganized into the second detachment of the New Fourth Army and entered the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War.

Unexpectedly, after the Red Seventh Army was renamed, it was rebuilt because of his arrival. Thinking of this, Li Jiansheng smiled bitterly. After a while, he thought, that's all. His temporary Red Fifteenth Army's designation was also changed.

Fortunately, it was cancelled. Otherwise, I really don’t know how the 15th Red Army was later organized. You know, in the modern history of China, the 15th Red Army was also an incredible force. It was also one of the main forces of the Chinese Workers’ and Peasants’ Red Army.

According to official history, on September 18, 1935, the 25th Red Army, which was originally stationed in the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet Area, crossed the Wei River and joined forces with the 26th Red Army and the 27th Red Army led by Liu Zhidan in Yanchuan, Shaanxi Province.

According to the order of the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China, the two armies were jointly organized to form the 15th Red Army Corps. Army Commander Xu Haidong, Political Commissar Cheng Zihua, Deputy Army Commander and Chief of Staff Liu Zhidan, Director of the Political Department

Gao Gang, deputy director Guo Shushen. Under the jurisdiction of the 75th Division (adapted from the 25th Red Army): division commander Zhang Shaodong, political commissar Zhao Lingbo; the 78th Division (adapted from the 26th Red Army): division commander Yang Sen, political commissar

Commissar Zhang Mingxian (later Cui Tianmindai); 81st Division (adapted from the 27th Red Army): Division Commander He Jinnian, political commissar Zhang Dazhi. The entire army has a total of more than 7,000 people.

On November 3, 1935, the 15th Red Army Corps joined forces with the Central Red Army and was incorporated into the First Front Army of the Red Army: Army Commander Xu Haidong, Political Commissar Cheng Zihua, Chief of Staff Zhou Shidi, Director of the Political Department Guo Shushen, and Deputy Director Feng Wenbin.

The 15th Division, the 78th Division, the 81st Division and a cavalry regiment. In 1937, the 15th Red Army Corps was reorganized into the 344th Brigade of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army. Brigadier Xu Haidong, Deputy Brigadier Huang Kecheng, and Chief of Staff Lu Shaowu joined the Anti-Japanese War.

war battlefield.

Thinking about these historical figures, and then looking at the report in hand, Li Jiansheng sighed again. Of course, this time he sighed not for himself, but because of the key people he rescued and the key people he cultivated. Generally speaking, they all returned to their own troops. Another thing that frightened him a little was the personnel appointment and removal situation of the Eighth Red Army. Because Huang Su and Gan Weihan had returned to the historical state, that is, Zhou Zi Kun was appointed as the commander of the Eighth Red Army, Huang Su was appointed as the army commissioner, and Gan Weihan was appointed as the organization director of the army. Li Jiansheng was a little confused. How could this history go around and back to the original track in the end.

In fact, there is much more than this that Li Jiansheng cannot understand.

Later, the Eighth Red Army Corps was not the same as in history. A few days later, on December 18, its designation was revoked and merged into the Fifth Red Army Corps. Instead, it continued to develop its own history. However, this Army Corps did not receive much recognition from beginning to end. Development. When it was later reorganized into the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Red Army Corps was only reorganized into a brigade and was reorganized into the 125th Division, which was again commanded by Li Jiansheng. At that time, political commissar Huang Su had already sacrificed his life as established historical facts. Zhou Zikun and At that time, Gan Weihan and others had been transferred to other main forces of the Red Army. This brigade was finally led by Feng Dafei. Feng Dafei in history was also sacrificed. After accidentally joining the Seventh Red Army, Li Jiansheng, who was familiar with his situation, was He was always reused and eventually promoted to brigade commander. Unfortunately, during the Anti-Japanese War, this senior general also died in the end. But his 389 brigade later produced 32 generals.

Contrary to the slow development of the Eighth Red Army, the Seventh Red Army later developed rapidly. The vitality of the army quickly recovered. This army of more than 40,000 people when it was reorganized actually developed to more than 80,000 people by the end of the Long March. Moreover, because The backbone of the Seventh Red Army was very strong. This unit became stronger as it fought. Finally, when it was reorganized into the 125th Division of the Eighth Route Army, it was reorganized into 6 brigades. Similarly, it was originally part of the Liu Zhidan Department of the Northern Shaanxi Red Army. Later, Li Jiansheng This unit also developed. Finally, it was able to form a brigade on its own, namely the 390th Brigade. At that time, Li Jiansheng's 125th Division became the only division in the Eighth Route Army with 8 brigades. It was extremely powerful. Strong. After the death of Zuo Quan, deputy chief of staff of the Eighth Route Army, Li Jiansheng was promoted to deputy chief of staff of the Eighth Route Army. However, he has been holding the post of commander of the 125th Division. Several deputy division commanders, including Yuntian, Ji Zhentong, Peng Zhi, and Liu Zhidan, have also been working together. He completed his duties as a division commander but never took up the post of division commander.

What Li Jiansheng never expected was that during the subsequent Anti-Japanese War, Cheng Cuilin, then deputy brigade commander of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army, died. When people were sorting out his body, they unexpectedly found a letter in his underwear pocket addressed to the then Eighth Route Army. A letter from Li Jiansheng, deputy chief of general staff and commander of the 125th Division. It wasn’t until he saw the letter that Li Jiansheng understood one thing: It turned out that the reason why the Central Revolutionary Military Commission demoted him from the commander-in-chief of the Third Red Front Army to the commander of the Seventh Red Army Corps was .It turned out to be because Cheng Cuilin reported his killing of prisoners to the central government. Of course, Cheng Cuilin guaranteed with his party spirit that he only stood as a political worker and did what he thought he should do. But what happened later made him unexpected : Unexpectedly, the Central Revolutionary Military Commission dealt with Li Jiansheng so harshly. He was directly demoted from the commander-in-chief of the front army to the commander of the corps. Moreover, many troops from the original third front army were also transferred to other troops. Of course, what he didn't know was this. In fact, two stages occurred. The first stage was indeed the punishment of Li Jiansheng by the Central Revolutionary Military Commission; the second stage was when Li Jiansheng took the initiative to make suggestions to the Central Revolutionary Military Commission, and the Central Revolutionary Military Commission implemented them according to his suggestions. Moreover, because of several central The main leaders, including the support of Mao, Zhu, Zhou, Zhang, Wang, etc., not only were the most elite forces of his army not allocated, but they were unprecedentedly concentrated. This also made the Seventh Red Army the only army with an 8-brigade organization. The teacher laid the foundation. Seeing his savior Li Jiansheng being treated like this, Cheng Cuilin, who was also a criticizing man, never smiled again. He never dared to meet Li Jiansheng again. From then on, this suicide note has been kept close to his body. In his underwear pocket. Until he died. At that time, Li Jiansheng had not taken this matter to heart. He never expected that such a thing would happen. After reading this letter, I was filled with emotions. Only then did I truly feel Cheng Cuilin’s ironclad spirit. Only then did he truly understand the truth behind this public case. Later, he made a special trip to pay homage to Cheng Cuilin’s grave. Later, he came forward to raise Cheng Cuilin’s children until they reached adulthood.
