Different from what most people think, Wang Fugui, who once longed to be a soldier, longed for war. Think about it, without war, where would there be so many division commanders and brigade commanders? Didn’t Chairman Wang also come from a background that carries a lot of salt? If it hadn’t been for the early Republic of China.
After years of melee, can he become the king of Guizhou? As the old saying goes, times make heroes, and the current times are the best time to make heroes! If the time is right, if he encounters a red bandit, he might be able to kill him.
He can also capture a Red Bandit commander or division commander. In that case, Chairman Wang will not allow himself to take charge of Shibing County for him? If it is done well, it is even possible to take charge of the entire southeastern part of Guizhou! By then,
That's not just grabbing ordinary Miao girls, Han girls, and Yao girls. You have to go directly to Nanjing to grab foreign women.
Thinking about the Guizhou army that escaped from Jianhe and Shi Bing yesterday, Wang Fugui felt that they were a group of fools, born to be shot. A group of red bandits could scare them like that and waste Chairman Wang's bullets, food and salary.
.If I were a regiment commander or brigade commander, I would definitely beat the shit out of the red bandits. There would be no need to run away!
Wang Fugui, who became more and more excited as he thought about it, took his team to a mountain pass and laid an ambush, waiting for the red bandits to take the bait.
It really comes to mind. As soon as Wang Fugui's team took cover, they saw 12 soldiers walking on the road. They were wearing gray military uniforms and there seemed to be a red dot on their hats. These were the legendary red bandits, they looked very good.
Ordinary? Why do those regular Guizhou soldiers run so fast? Fools! Look at me!
Wang Fugui told his brothers: "The opportunity to make a fortune has come. These 12 red bandits will pass by here soon. Let's rush down, catch them, and exchange them for smoke and soil."
Seeing that the red bandits were about to arrive, Wang Fugui raised his pistol, fired two shots into the air, and shouted: "Brothers, catch the red bandits!" A group of people rushed from the hillside.
Come down.
When Wang Fugui thought about it, his shouting should have frightened the red bandits and run away. They chased after him, held down one of them, tied him up and they were done. Unexpectedly, things were not what he thought.
Hearing the shouts and gunshots, the 12 red bandits not only did not run away, but quickly fell down, raised their guns and shot at the militia members who rushed down the hillside. The most hateful thing is that the two red bandits can fire continuously.
The bullets came out as soon as the gun fired, and in the blink of an eye more than 20 members of Wang Fugui's militia were killed. None of the members rushed down, so they turned around and ran back.
Wang Fugui looked at it and saw that the team was running away. Wouldn't it be like the Guizhou army that fled yesterday? If it can be done, I don't believe that 60 people can't defeat 12 people. He raised his pistol and heard two more "bang bang" sounds.
The two guys who took the lead in escaping were beaten to death. Then they shouted: "You are not allowed to run, whoever runs will be killed! Everyone climbed down and shot at the red bandits."
The regiment members really didn't dare to run away, so they crawled on the ground and shot randomly at the opposite side. The Red Bandits no longer fired with their continuous-fire guns, but only used rifles to shoot at the regiment members. However, the gun was accurate.
, three or two shots can kill a life.
Wang Fugui saw that fewer and fewer regiment members around him were alive, and he began to feel afraid. Mom, in a little while, it will be my turn to be shot. What about regiment commander, brigade commander, let others do it? Shi Bing
, Southeast Guizhou, let someone else greet Chairman Wang, I’ll just greet the small area of Shuangjing. Run, if it’s too late, don’t talk about grabbing foreign beauties, let alone Miao girls, Han girls, and Yao girls.
I'm afraid his wife will become someone else's. Thinking of this, Wang Fugui jumped up from the ground and ran, shouting: "Brothers, run! If you run fast, you will die, if you run slow, you will die.
,Run!”
I ran a few steps and felt something was wrong. Why didn't I hear the brothers' reply? I turned around and saw that there were no living people anywhere. I looked up again, my God, since when have there been red bandits standing on both sides of the mountain pass on the side of the road! Go there!
Where to run?
"Go to hell!" As soon as this thought came to his mind, Wang Fugui fired his pistol at the red bandit. Before he could fire the second shot, several bullets hit him at the same time. This villain-like militia district
The captain fell straight to the ground.
It's not surprising that Wang Fugui's militia has poor combat effectiveness. The key is that he encountered the wrong enemy. He was fighting against the reconnaissance squad of the leading company of the 1st Division and 1st Regiment of the Red Army, not to mention his 60-member militia.
What can a platoon or a company of the Central Army do? Since the day the Red Regiment was established, who has it been afraid of?
The battle between Wang Fugui and the leading company of the Red Regiment was just an episode. In the history of the Red Regiment's war, not even a word was recorded. However, the local Miao people have always circulated the story of the Red Army eliminating Wang's scourge for them.
On December 18, the 1st Red Army Corps, the 3rd Red Army Corps, the 5th Red Army Corps, the 9th Red Army Corps, and the Military Commission column passed through Jianhe and entered the Shi Bing and Huangping areas in front of the stage. The Central Revolutionary Military Commission adjusted its deployment, and the 1st and 3rd Army Corps rushed to Huangping City.
, the Military Commission column accompanied them; the fifth army army attacked Shi Bingcheng, and the ninth army army attacked Zhenyuan.
At this time, Xue Yue's pursuit and suppression army headquarters was far away in Hunan. Xue Yue, who had just received the chairman's telegram to march to Guizhou for pursuit and suppression, was thinking about how to march into Guizhou.
Xue Yue, courtesy name Boling, was a Hakka from Shaoguan, Guangdong. His father named him Xue Yangyue because he admired Yue Fei, and later changed his name to Xue Yue. When Chen Jiongming launched a rebellion, Xue Yue served as the battalion commander of the National Revolutionary Army and protected Soong Qingling from danger. He later served as division commander and followed Zhang Fakui to rebel against Chiang Kai-shek.
Chen Cheng recommended him to join Chiang Kai-shek's camp. From the fifth counter-encirclement and suppression campaign to the Long March, Xue Yue commanded the Central Army to pursue and fight all the way from Jiangxi to the border of Hunan and Guizhou. Historically, Xue Yue became a famous general because of his resistance to Japan, and was not ranked first in the national army sequence.
The two thought.
The situation is now very clear. The main force of the Red Army has turned to Guizhou, and Wang Jialie's main force is in the Tongren area at the border with western Hunan. The Guizhou Army on the south bank of the Wujiang River alone and east of Guiyang cannot stop the Red Army's attack. His own pursuit and suppression army
On the other hand, He Jiang just suffered a big loss, and now he refuses to send troops because of the serious banditry situation in western Hunan. Bai Chongxi didn't know what he was afraid of, so he asked all the Gui troops to withdraw to the north of Guangxi. He didn't move, and Chen Jitang followed suit. Forget it.
After all, the pursuit and suppression army only has 100,000 Central Army troops. This is good, as it will prevent the Gui Army and Hunan Army from affecting their actions to seize power in Guizhou in the future.
Think about it, it is better to stand high and see far. The order is very clear, go straight to Guiyang. As for the Red Army, let Wang Jialie and the Sichuan Army who are about to be dispatched fight with them. It is best if they all die naked.
, so as not to affect the committee’s plan to unify political and military orders.
Calculate the distance and time. If we set out tomorrow, by the time we get to Shi Bing and Huang Ping, it is estimated that the red bandits will have already crossed the Wujiang River. Our army of 100,000 will be able to march straight to Guiyang along the south bank of the Wujiang River. Once we have captured Guiyang
, forcing Wang Jialie to submit, and then calmly arrange the suppression of the bandits. Anyway, the Red Bandits are at the end of the road now, and they are not afraid of running to the sky. It is best for the Red Bandits to run in front and chase after them. The Red Bandits will open the way, and the Central Army will
When the red bandits go to Sichuan, they will follow them and occupy Sichuan. When the red bandits go to Yunnan, they will follow them and occupy Yunnan. If they can capture Guangxi, Guangdong, Qinghai, Ningxia, Gansu, and Xinjiang, what a great achievement it will be.
ah!
Thinking of the proud place, Xue Yue couldn't help but be high-spirited and ordered loudly: "Send my order to convene a combat meeting immediately and notify the division commanders to participate!"
Huangping is a famous historical and cultural city in southeastern Guizhou, with majestic mountains and rivers, deep forests and secluded valleys. The ancient city of Jiuzhou in the west of the county was the capital of the "Qielan Kingdom" that was as famous as the ancient "Yelang" in the Spring and Autumn Period. It means Jiuzhou in Miao language
It is the Imperial City. Shi Kefa, the hero of the Ming Dynasty who fought against the Jin Dynasty, studied in Huangping when he was a boy, and the mother of Mr. Guo Moruo was born here. According to chronicles, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, a total of 29 Jinshi and 251 Juren were produced here.
The above article captures the romantic place.
Huangping is also a transportation hub and a strategic location. The land route leads to Guiyang in the west and Zunyi in the north, and the water route can lead directly to Hunan and Jiangxi. During the Anti-Japanese War, General Chennault's Flying Tigers took off from Huangping Jiuzhou Airport to attack Japanese fighter planes.
Historically, during the Red Army's Long March, on December 26, which was Mao Zedong's 41st birthday, there was a day of fierce fighting between Huang Ping and Du Zhaohua's 4th Brigade of the Bai Huizhang Second Division of the Guizhou Army. The Red Army suffered several casualties, and the defending Guizhou Army suffered casualties.
More than 200. The enemy in the rear realized that they were surrounded and fled towards Chong'an River.
Due to the arrival of Liu Yimin, the enemy's pursuit troops shrank back and defended their nests, so that the main force of the Red Army had no worries and could safely and boldly sweep across southeastern Guizhou. As the main force of Wang Jialie's lineage, Bai Huizhang's Second Division
On the way back west from Tongren, the Battle of Huangping, which was a full seven days earlier than in history, was not as fierce as before.
In the early morning of December 19, the main forces of the First Red Army and the Third Red Army arrived at Huangpiao, east of Huangping, and then divided their troops into four directions to attack Huangping. The Third Red Army occupied the sharp hillside three kilometers east of the county seat, and the First Red Army fifteen
The division and the cadre regiment went straight to the east gate of the city along the Hunan-Guizhou Highway. The second division detoured around Zhoujiashan, Lijiayuan, and Gaobangtian, and went straight to the back streets of the county seat. The first division went around the steep hillside and occupied the hills around Maoliyuan and Banhe in the southeast of Huangping.
Thick fog enveloped Huangping in the early morning, and no one could be seen even 10 meters away. The Red Army troops quickly advanced towards their intended target under the cover of thick fog.
Stationed in Huangping were the 7th and 8th regiments of Zhou Fangren's fourth brigade of the Guizhou Army. They escaped all the way from Liping and Jianhe and entered Huangping City. They received a strict order from Wang Jialie: Guard Huangping. If Huangping fails, military law will
disposal.
There was no other way, so Zhou Fangren had no choice but to deploy defenses. Originally, his brigade only had two regiments, so his strength was insufficient. In addition, more than 700 people were captured by the Red Regiment at Wuli Bridge in Jianhe, and his strength was even thinner.
In desperation, Zhou Fangren ordered the remnants of the 7th Regiment to guard the hillside, and the 8th Regiment to guard Huangping City. Fortunately, Huangping had not been breached for hundreds of years. Zhou Fangren felt a little lucky in his heart that maybe the Red Army would too.
Come back in vain.
When the 5th Red Division reached the steep hillside, the soldiers of the 7th Regiment were still having breakfast in the trenches. A sharp-eyed soldier suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a figure in the morning mist. He took a closer look and realized, oh my god, it was the Red Bandits who had touched them.
.The guy threw the bowl away, shouted "The red bandits are coming!", turned around and touched the gun.
Sometimes, a smart person always dies faster. It doesn't matter if he doesn't shout or touch the gun. As soon as he shouts or touches the gun, deadly bullets will come. Even a rookie can shoot him from a distance of about 10 meters.
, let alone the elite soldiers of the Fifth Red Division?
The soldiers of the 5th Red Division rushed into the trenches. Those who raised their hands to surrender were captured, and those who tried to resist were shot. Those who were farther away and who turned around and ran away more cleverly would have bullets chasing them from behind. Just like that,
The remnants of the 7th Regiment of the Guizhou Army were wiped out. Historically, the Red Army's third regiment attacked the Jianshanshan slope for a day and sacrificed several soldiers. The Jianshanshan slope position fell into the hands of the Red Army very easily.
After occupying Jianshan Slope, the Third Red Army Corps immediately occupied the Changpo and Jialiang Slopes east of Jianshan Mountain and completely controlled the commanding heights southeast of Huangping. Then they divided their troops into two groups and advanced toward the county seat, cooperating with the First Army Corps to lay siege to the county seat.
Hearing gunshots coming from the direction of Jianshanshan Mountain, Zhou Fangren immediately ordered the Eighth Regiment to enter the position and set aside a battalion as a reserve team, ready to reinforce Jianshanshan Mountain at any time. Of course, he was also prepared to serve as his own bodyguard when he escaped.
However, the gunfire from the direction of Jianshan Mountain quickly stopped. Zhou Fangren was secretly happy that the small group of red bandits must have been repelled. You know, the highest point of Jianshan Mountain is 1102 meters above sea level. Let alone fighting, it is just climbing.
It will take a while to climb. But thinking about the Seventh Regiment retreating all the way from Liping, I feel a little uneasy, and I am ready to wait a little longer. If it is indeed the Seventh Regiment that holds Jianshanpo, I will stick to Huangping; if Jianshan is lost, I will.
Prepare to run away. You must know that Huang Ping cannot defend it without the barrier of a sharp hillside.
Just as Zhou Fangren was thinking about it, the chief of staff reported that the phone call on Jianshanshan Mountain could not be reached. Zhou Fangren thought to himself, it’s over, the Seventh Regiment is really capable, so he fired a few shots and ran away. Zhou Fangren quickly ordered the staff officer
When the commander went to the position to supervise the battle, he took off his officer uniform, put on the soldier uniform of the guard, and ran directly to the west gate with the reserve team, preparing to escape.
The First Army Corps had already moved into position, and mortars began to bombard the enemy defenders. Under the cover of artillery fire, the 15th Division and the Teaching Group quickly captured the Yuhuang Pavilion at the east gate of the city and began to advance into the city. The Second Red Division came around
, organized the soldiers to climb over the city wall more than ten meters high and entered the back streets of the county town, forming a pincer offensive with the 15th Division and the Teaching Group.
When the mortar shells fell on the city wall, the officers and soldiers of the Eighth Regiment knew that the main force of the Red Army was coming, and they didn't know how they died. Then they heard that someone saw the brigade commander leading a battalion out of the west gate.
Where is anyone willing to resist? Withdraw and run away. Now we have to compete with the Red Army to see whose foot strength is better. So, the troops withdrew from the position. First, the whole company and whole battalion ran, and they were able to maintain their formation. Very quickly
Quickly, amidst the gunfire from the Second Division, the Fifteenth Division, and the teaching regiment, the team started to herd the sheep and swarmed toward the west gate.
The 1st Red Division, which occupied Maoliyuan and the hills around Banhe, left some troops behind for defence. The main force had already moved near the west gate of Huangping, preparing to cooperate with other troops to siege the county town. As soon as the Guizhou Army left the west gate, it met the 1st Red Division head on.
Collision. There is nothing to say. Machine guns, rifles, submachine guns, and grenades are all thrown at each other to see whose fist is stronger.
What Li Jukui, the commander of the First Division, did not expect was that the Guizhou army's fists were not hard or not, but too brittle. The bones would break with the slightest touch. Poor Zhou Fangren's eighth regiment ran from Jianhe to Huangping, but still could not escape.
Passing through the palm of the Red Division's hand.
After hurriedly cleaning the battlefield and handing over the prisoners and captured guns to the Second Division, the First Red Division did not even enter Huangping City and headed straight for the old city of Jiuzhou.
The Central Revolutionary Military Commission and the Central Column entered Huangping.
The joy of victory hangs on everyone's face. You must know that, except for the victories at Gulingtou, Xiaoshui, and Xikou won by the 18th Red Regiment and the 34th Division, this is the largest victory achieved by the main force of the Central Red Army since the Long March. Long-distance
Attacking, annihilating an enemy brigade, and occupying Huangping, a city with developed commerce and convenient transportation, it was really a very beautiful victory. Not to mention ordinary Red Army soldiers, even in Bogu's view, the decision to transfer troops through the channel was correct.
.Lao Mao is really one step ahead.
After Chairman Mao, Vice Chairman Zhou, Commander-in-Chief Zhu and other central leaders entered Huangping County, they immediately ordered to contact the Fifth Army Corps and the Ninth Army Corps to inquire about the progress. When they learned that the Fifth Army Corps had occupied Shibing and the Ninth Army Corps had occupied Zhenyuan County, neither of them had
After encountering decent resistance, the Central Revolutionary Military Commission immediately ordered the Fifth Army Corps and the Ninth Army Corps to advance to the shore of Wujiang River, preparing to find a ferry and forcibly cross the Wujiang River.
Due to Huangping's prosperous business and abundant material reserves, the Red Army's logistics department purchased large quantities of urgently needed materials for the Red Army in Huangping. It is said that all the cloth in Huangping City was bought out.
Li Chengren is the owner of Huangping Renyi Cloth Shop. Yesterday afternoon, he felt that something was wrong. The Guizhou Army, which had withdrawn from the direction of Jianhe, poured into Huangping City. Then, under the leadership of the Self-Defense Regiment, groups of soldiers took the county
A long notice was issued and people were arrested everywhere, saying that they needed to build fortifications to prevent the Red Bandits from Jiangxi from attacking the city. Damn it, they are obviously the Red Army, but they have to be said to be Red Bandits. I think no matter how bad the Red Bandits are, they are worse than
Not like these Guizhou troops. No, the second son of the Huang family next door didn't want to build fortifications. He quarreled a few times and was beaten until he vomited blood. In the end, he had to give the soldier 30 silver dollars and two taels of smoke.
Finished.
It looks like a war is really about to begin. Should we lock the door, pack up the cloth, and then take the wife and children by boat to the lower reaches to hide? After discussing it with my wife, she agreed. The couple got up early in the morning to pack up.
Who would have thought that just after cleaning up, before the door could be locked, the Guizhou Army began to flee, and the Red Army entered the city. If you can't run away, hide quickly!
The family put the door on top and was hiding in the house praying for the blessings of the Jade Emperor, the Buddha of the West, the Queen Mother, and Guanyin Bodhisattva. When the Red Army came knocking on the door. Open it, after all, it is said that the Red Army kills people without batting an eye; don't open it, it will piss off the Red Army, they
Would you just break in through the door, grab things and kill someone? After thinking about it, I think it’s better to open the door if I’m going to die anyway.
The door was indeed opened correctly. Later, many years later, Li Chengren had already become a white-haired old man. He still liked to talk about his experience that day when meeting people: "You don't know, the Red Army is really a teacher of benevolence and righteousness."
Ah, I spoke kindly and my business was fair. That day was the best business day since I opened the cloth shop. All the inventory was sold out. After paying so much money, the head of the Red Army held my hand and said thank you and praised me for being patriotic.
Businessman!"
Different from the prosperity of Huangping City, after the Fifth Red Army Corps captured Shibing County, the Red Army soldiers were generally disappointed. This Shibing County Town is not like a county town at all. The houses are all thatched roofs, dilapidated, and extremely poor. With one of the Fifth Army Corps,
In the words of a cadre's memoirs written after the founding of the People's Republic of China, "This is the poorest county I have ever seen."
Therefore, after receiving the telegram from the Central Revolutionary Military Commission, the Fifth Army Corps quickly turned to the Dawu River on the edge of the Wu River.
