After breaking up with these three great men, Guo Zhuocheng sent a telegram to order Wang Guangdao to lead the second division of the direct column to station in Guiyang. Together with the original logistics brigade led by Peng Zhufeng and the Red 34th Division led by Chen Shuxiang, they became the defensive force of Guiyang City. , unified under the direct command of Mr. Zhu.
The reason why Guo Zhuocheng handed over the command to Mr. Zhu was because he insisted on doing so and had Mr. Zhu lead the army, because he did not want to be seen as supporting the troops and respecting himself. Besides, Mr. Zhu himself doesn't like to engage in political and ideological matters, so he would rather let him command the troops.
The meeting was held the next night. At the meeting, the main leaders did not express their opposition to the Soviet Union. They only emphasized that the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army must be independent, that the Chinese people should make their own decisions in their own affairs, and that China's revolution should be combined with China's reality. ¡
Because the slogan was relatively euphemistic and Mao Rundong's prestige was high, the Red Army officers and soldiers who had escaped the pursuit of Chiang Kai-shek's Central Army maintained silence and support. Although this meeting was not very harmonious, it did not arouse anyone's opposition.
According to the arrangements of the Central Committee, the Red Army headquarters will simply cut off communications with the Soviet Union, no longer receive telegrams from the other party, and will not report the situation here to the other party.
??In other words, the Central Red Army and the Soviet Union were artificially separated. From then on, China did not say whether they were good or bad, and they could not affect the Chinese revolution.
After the meeting, the organization removed those whose ideas were inconsistent with those of their superiors from leadership positions and replaced them with those whose ideas had changed, and then reorganized the army. There is no organizational discrimination against those who have been replaced. There was no killing or imprisonment. Instead, they are assigned to some newly established specific local units. Such as the police station, tax bureau, agricultural bureau, etc., let them do some specific work, and hope that they will slowly think and transform while working.
After the leaders of the army are pure, the next step is to reorganize the troops and divide them into field troops, regular troops, and garrison troops. Among them, the field force formed three armies, namely General Lin's First Army, General Peng's Second Army, and Guo Zhuocheng's Third Army.
Follow Guo Zhuocheng¡¯s suggestion. Each corps is tentatively set at 30,000 people, and its establishment includes tank divisions, armored infantry divisions, artillery divisions, air defense regiments and other combat units. In addition, there are engineering regiments, supply regiments, communications battalions, reconnaissance battalions, ordnance battalions, medical teams, Military police and other auxiliary units that help improve combat effectiveness.
The focuses of the three armies are different. General Lin's First Army focuses on the plains, plateau areas and the future of northern China. It is mainly equipped with medium and heavy tanks and large-caliber artillery. Its combat targets are mainly Japan and the future. Soviet Army, German Army, American Army.
General Peng¡¯s Second Army focuses on hills, mountains and the south. It is mainly equipped with medium and light tanks, amphibious tanks, and small and medium-caliber artillery. Its combat targets are mainly the US Army, the British Army, and the French Army.
Guo Zhuocheng¡¯s Third Army focuses on the navy, air force, airborne, and special operations. Because of his special situation, his troops include land, sea and air. That is to say, the future air force and navy will also be commanded by him. Until they can form an independent army, they will be separated.
These three services are strategic services and are used in strategic decisive battles with other countries.
In addition, the central government also decided to establish conventional armies and local garrison forces. These include Liu Bocheng's Fourth Army, Chen Yi's Fifth Army, and He Long's Sixth Army. However, Mr. Chen and Su Yu's troops are in the Central Soviet Area, and Mr. He's troops are in the Hunan-Hubei Border Region.
The next work is to reorganize the troops, completely change their equipment, and actively prepare for war.
After Chen Peng¡¯s First Division captured Chongqing, the main force of the central government decided to capture Chengdu again, turning the entire Sichuan Basin into a training base and advance base for the Red Army.
¡¡
Time flies by, and a few days have passed in the blink of an eye.
Just when the main force of the Central Red Army was busy and everyone was happily putting on weapons, equipment and military supplies that they had never seen or even thought about, Chen Peng's First Division had already received the tax police sent by Chiang Kai-shek. It was reported that the general regiment had passed Kuimen and was about to arrive in Chongqing, so they began to implement the action plan they had already formulated.
The Central Committee of the Red Army also sent new troops to sneak into Chongqing day and night to take over the defense. This new force must not only defend the empty city of Chongqing left behind after the departure of the First Division, but also be prepared to capture Chengdu.
The central leaders, Guo Zhuocheng and others all knew that the First Division¡¯s battle against the Tax Police Corps would be the largest and last important battle between the Chinese Workers¡¯ and Peasants¡¯ Red Army and Chiang Kai-shek¡¯s Central Army in the southwest. Because if Jiang Gaishi failed in this battle, he would not have any more troops to send to encircle and suppress the Red Army. After all, his troops did not fall from the sky. They would also cost a lot of money and energy to set up.
After this series of failures, especiallyWith the destruction of Xue Yue's regiment and the rout of Hu Zongnan's troops, Chiang Kai-shek not only did not have many troops in the southwest, but also did not have many spare troops in Jiangsu, Anhui, Zhejiang, Shanghai and other places. Not only did he have to beware of the Red Army in the Central Soviet Area starting to counterattack, but he also had to beware of warlords such as Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi, Feng Yuxiang, Zhang Xueliang, and He Jian from devouring him. You must know that these warlords devour their companions without blinking an eye, and they are more vicious than the Red Army.
If the Red Army wants to attack Chiang Kai-shek, they will definitely give him a reason, saying that he is a reactionary or something. But those warlords will not give him a reason at all. They just want to seize your power, want you to die, and then seize your troops and put them away. Grab your money, it's that simple.
Jiang Jieshi was really losing his troops and generals during this period, and he began to lose control of these warlords who were eyeing him. For now, Zhang Xueliang's Northeastern Army has become the warlord group that Chiang Kai-shek is most worried about. Not only is the 300,000-strong Northeastern Army well-equipped, but more importantly, they occupy the Central Plains, and Zhang Xueliang is also the deputy commander-in-chief of the national armed forces, occupying the name of righteousness. point. Now because of Jiang Jieshi's repeated defeats on the battlefield, there are already people clamoring for Zhang Xueliang to take over and let him command the country's armed forces.
Although there is only a small group of people, and Zhang Xueliang was infamous during the September 18th Incident and was labeled as a runaway general. It is impossible to really replace him in a short time, Jiang Jieshi, but this sign is enough to alert Jiang Jieshi. Jiang Jieshi was shocked. If we don't have enough troops in hand, Zhang Xueliang, Li Xueliang, maybe Wang Xueliang, Gao Xueliang are ready to take a look at this throne.
It can be foreseen that even if the Tax Police Corps successfully recaptures Chongqing this time, Chiang Kai-shek will not have the ability to suppress the Red Army on a large scale and can only take a defensive stance, seizing Chongqing, Chengdu and other large cities in his hands, and fearfully guarding against the Red Army. But once it fails, he, Jiang, will shrink his troops and even abandon Sichuan completely. At most, the Sichuan Army can cause a little more trouble to the Red Army, while he has to go around to rescue, beg for money, and raise more funds to revitalize the Central Army, so that the Central Army, who are frightened by the loss of soldiers and generals, can recharge their batteries and wait for the future. Opportunity to attack the Red Army again.
Precisely because the central leaders and senior generals of the Red Army knew the importance of this battle, not only Guo Zhuocheng, Mao Runqin and others sneaked to Chongqing day and night, but General Lin, General Peng and other generals also rushed to the front line.
Of course, Mr. Lin and Mr. Peng are not here to intervene in the command. They are here to witness what Guo Zhuocheng calls the infantry and artillery coordination, and to see how powerful Guo Zhuocheng's first division is, so that they can feel comfortable in their hearts. There is a spectrum.
To be honest, Guo Zhuocheng asked them to set up a first army, a second army, a third army, armored infantry divisions, tank divisions, artillery divisions, each of them sounded majestic, but in their hearts I have no impression at all. I don¡¯t know what the armored infantry division, tank division, and artillery division look like, and how they cooperate during battle.
In the past, they had only commanded infantry, and at most they only bombarded with a few small artillery pieces. These artillery pieces were of a cooperative nature and could not fundamentally change the combat effectiveness of the troops. They had never had to rely on a few more artillery pieces or a few fewer pieces of artillery. They have a special regard for their own troops because of the extra artillery pieces. They will not think that the Central Army is scum just because they have a few more artillery pieces, nor will they think that they are afraid of the Central Army because they have no artillery pieces.
"However, Guo Zhuocheng's troops easily defeated the Central Army. They had to change their original concepts and believed that raising weapons and equipment to a new level was a top priority.
But as the saying goes, hearing is false and seeing is believing. Now we have the Tax Police Corps as a good test subject. I heard that they not only have a large number of artillery, but also tanks and trucks to assist in the battle. This should be consistent with the armor Guo Zhuocheng said. Infantry divisions and tank divisions are somewhat similar, so go and take a look.
In addition, the second division directly under the column also moved. They headed straight east under the command of Wang Guangdao.
Guo Zhuocheng walked in the mountains and forests with the two most outstanding marshals of the Republic.
Along the way, Mr. Lin didn't talk much, but Mr. Peng always asked about this and that. Guo Zhuocheng, regardless of whether they asked or not, always talked about tank tactics and how to conduct a tank cluster attack. Firepower coordination, if the battlefield is blocked, how to carry out a quick assault, and at the same time, I also talk about how to fight against tanks and how to guard against tanks
After talking about tanks and airplanes, he told them that future airplanes are far from the wooden airplanes of the Gui Army, nor the backward airplanes of the Central Army. The future airplanes will not only fly high and fast, but also have extremely fierce firepower and can carpet targets. Type bombing, aerial bombs are more powerful than heavy bombs, and incendiary bombs can kill any life in more than a hundred square meters
