Heroes of the Resistance Reborn

Upon hearing what Zeng Zhongsheng said, Li Jiansheng nodded secretly in his heart, and guessed that the chief of staff must have an opinion now. He laughed immediately. Seeing the regiment commander smile, Zeng Zhongsheng also laughed. He knew that he The idea is the same as that of the legion commander. It seems that a big battle is about to be fought.

After laughing, the two of them used the stones on the roadside as chairs to play the military. While performing the drill, Li Jiansheng thought secretly: It seems that the current situation is still developing like official history. In fact, when the Central Red Army breaks through the four roads After the blockade, Chiang Kai-shek stepped up the deployment of troops. On the one hand, he mobilized five or six times the strength of the Central Red Army in the Chengbu, Suining, Wugang, Zhijiang, Huitong, and Jingzhou areas north of the passage to deploy a tight line of defense. Bag-shaped defense line; on the one hand, the local warlords in Hunan, Guangxi and Guizhou were sent to divide their forces to intercept and encircle them in an attempt to completely annihilate the Central Red Army. The channel meeting held a few days ago solved an important issue for the Red Army, that is, the issue of life and death, because during the advance Before the passage, "Left" adventurist leaders Li De, Bo Gu and others, despite the fact that more than half of the Red Army's troops were lost after the Battle of Xiangjiang and the dangerous situation where the enemy was waiting for them, still insisted on marching north through the passage into western Hunan and the Red Army. The established policy of the Second and Sixth Army Reunion, the Central Red Army of more than 30,000 people will face a life and death battle, and there is the danger of the entire army being destroyed at any time. Under such circumstances, it happened that he cursed several Central Committees at the gate of the passage city. Of course, he also knew about the leader's affairs. At this critical juncture, he did not know whether it was the inertia of history or his own words of scolding the head of the central committee that played a role. On December 10 and 11, the main leading comrades of the Party Central Committee An emergency meeting was held in Tongtong County on the 12th, which was the famous "Tongtong Meeting" in history. At the meeting, Chairman Mao advocated abandoning the original policy of joining the Second and Sixth Red Army Corps and instead marching towards Guizhou where the enemy was weak.

Although he did not attend the meeting, Li Jiansheng was still very concerned because he knew that Mao Mao, the great man, said a famous saying at the historical channel meeting: "Why don't we avoid reality and get rid of the strong enemy in front of us and go to Guizhou? Why You must go to the pocket, the road is facing the sky, everyone goes to one side." Historically, these words of the great Mao played a role, allowing the Central Red Army to divert and finally survive. Li Jiansheng did not know that this channel meeting On the topic, did the great Mao also say this as usual in history?

What Li Jiansheng didn't know now, but learned many years later, is that history is always surprisingly similar, because the "channel meeting" was held one day earlier than in history. Mao Mao still said these words, but this time he The weight of saying this is much heavier than the weight of saying this in history, and there are more recipients. You must know that Li Jiansheng's angrily and cursed words in front of the gate of the passage city were equivalent to giving everyone who attended the meeting a warning. Needless to say, everyone accepted Li Jiansheng's views from the bottom of their hearts, so when the great Mao put forward his views, he did not encounter greater resistance than in history. This also shows that the great Mao intervened in the core position of the Red Army earlier than in history. History Although the channel meeting agreed with Mao Zedong's views and accepted his suggestions, due to the disagreement among the central leadership, it was unable to make a decision on the general direction of the strategic shift, and Mao Zedong did not intervene in the core position. History The status of Mao Zedong as a great man was first established at the Channel Conference and gradually formed after the subsequent Liping Conference and Houchang Conference. The core position of Mao Mao as a great man was truly established after the Zunyi Conference.

In fact, after breaking through the four blockades, especially the Battle of Xiangjiang River, Bogu and Li De were in low spirits and had great mood swings. The main task of commanding the Red Army fell on Zhou Enlai's shoulders. Zhou Enlai was responsible for convening the channel meeting, not Mao Zedong, who was the core leader. It is unusual for a great man to be invited to participate in the "Channel Meeting" in such a capacity. The actual situation of the meeting is: Zhang Wentian and Wang Jiaxiang who were present at the meeting had been persuaded by Mao Zedong during the Long March and fully agreed with Mao Zedong's opinions; Zhou Enlai also made it clear through his reflection on the Xiangjiang Battle Supported Mao; although Bogu no longer insisted, he did not give up the established policy of finally going north to fight with the Second and Sixth Red Army. Therefore, at the critical juncture at that time, when Li De and others were unable to do anything, they had to accept Chairman Mao This historical great man grew up in the historical practice of the Chinese revolution. Li Jiansheng, who is familiar with history, knows that the rise of the great man Mao is an inevitable process of historical development. From the Channel Conference to the Zunyi Conference, his leadership position was gradually established. For the first time, the meeting accepted the suggestions of Mao Zedong, who had been excluded for more than two years. This was a critical turning point in victory. But now, due to the arrival of Li Jiansheng, the arrival of the Red Army, and Li Jiansheng's angry rebuke in front of the passage city gate. and scolding, all secretly helped Mao Mao to intervene at the core level in advance.

As in history, due to the pressure of the situation, Mao Mao's opinion of giving up joining forces with the Second and Sixth Army of the Red Army and marching towards Guizhou where the enemy is weak was approved by most of the comrades present. Immediately after the meeting that day, In the name of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission, the "extremely urgent" march telegram to the west to Guizhou was sent to the heads of all legions and columns. At this meeting, as in the official history, the great Mao turned the tide and proposed a historic transfer of troops, and the Red Seven The legion received a task signed in the name of Mr. Zhu: to serve as the rear guard of the entire army. That night, when Li Jiansheng visited Mao Weiren, the great man also made it clear to him that Li Jiansheng's Seventh Red Army Corps should serve as the rear guard. Li Jiansheng gave him some suggestions. Remember it once and use it several times in future battles.

Thinking of this, Li Jiansheng came to his senses: now is not the time for his own memories and thoughts, now is the time for military deductions, but he can no longer be distracted. At that moment, Li Jiansheng gathered his mind, and while conducting deductions with Zeng Zhongsheng, he asked Chief of Staff Zeng He introduced some of the information he knew: On December 15, the Central Red Army diverted its troops from Tongtong County into two groups and marched westward. One group entered Xinchang Pingcha in Jingzhou County through Xianxi in Tongtong County, and then from Xinchang to Pingcha. It entered Guizhou in two ways. One entered Hongzhou in Guizhou via Boyang and marched towards Liping. On that day, the Military Commission issued an order to all legions and columns to "quickly break away from the enemy in Guizhou, enter Guizhou westward, and seek opportunities to transfer to northern Guizhou." On the 18th, after the Central Column entered the territory of Guizhou, the Military Commission ordered the Second and Sixth Red Army Corps active in western Hunan to coordinate operations to mobilize or contain the enemies in Qianyang, Zhijiang, and Hongjiang in order to coordinate the Central Red Army's march to northern Guizhou. On the 20th, that is, today, the Central Committee held a Politburo meeting in Liping to further discuss strategic policy issues and affirmed the correct proposition of transferring troops to Guizhou put forward by Mao Mao at the channel meeting.

After introducing the situation, Li Jiansheng asked Zeng Zhongsheng to formulate a plan to annihilate the enemy first, which would be discussed and approved by the heads of their legions later. Zeng Zhongsheng nodded, agreed, and left. However, Li Jiansheng stared blankly towards Liping in the west for a while, thinking in his heart. There was another sigh of relief: December 15th was the day when the Central Red Army turned westward, two days later than in official history; on December 18th, the Liping Conference was held in history and the Eighth Red Army was withdrawn, but now it became the day when the Central Column officially entered On the day of the Guizhou border, the Eighth Red Army was not withdrawn. Now it has entered the Guizhou border as the left rear wing of the Central Red Army. Today, the 20th, two days later than in history, the Liping Conference was held.

It seems that although history has changed slightly, it is still sliding forward normally according to its original trajectory.
