Rebirth from the Ashes: Rebuilding the Red Soviet Area

Captain Wang smiled and said, "Okay."

"Sending a signal"

"Implement according to the plan set by the commander"

"Leave a battalion of soldiers to block"

"Others retreat"

"correct"

"The guard company also left behind a platoon."

"Take all the remaining war horses from the Wengcheng National Army Cavalry Battalion"

"Return to Meishan"

"And around the dead cavalrymen of the National Army"

"Laying a booby trap"

"hey-hey"

"I want to leave a big gift for the 88th Division"

......

Over time

It slowly got dark

The city of Longyan also became quiet.

88th Division Commander Sun, Brigade Commander Feng, Brigade Commander Huang

Under the protection of the special forces battalion

Riding a warhorse

Excitedly walked towards Longyan City

Just entered the city

Commander Sun saw the corpses of cavalry and horses scattered all over the ground.

My eyes turned red

This cavalry battalion is the apple of the eye of Commander Sun.

At the time when the Battle of Shanghai was about to end

The 88th Division suffered casualties of up to half

In addition, there is a lack of weapons and ammunition

Forced to retreat to the rear

But during the retreat

Encountered the attack from the 11th Cavalry Regiment of the 11th Division of the Japanese Army from the Liuhekou

Since the 88th Division was composed of infantry at the time, it lacked mobility.

Facing a cavalry charge

Can only passively take the beating

If it weren't for the support of friendly forces at that time

The 88th Division might be completely annihilated.

After the Battle of Shanghai

Commander Sun learned from his mistakes

Countless money and materials were wasted

Only then was such a cavalry battalion formed

But after just one battle

Lose everything

Commander Sun gnashed his teeth and shouted: "If we don't completely wipe out the red bandits in southwestern Fujian,

"I swear not to retreat"

As soon as this sentence came out

The officers and soldiers nearby were all silent.

Ten minutes passed

Only then did Master Sun slowly calm down his anger.

Brigade Commander Feng then stepped forward and said, "Commander

"Please calm down"

"We have occupied Longyan"

“It won’t take long.”

"We will wipe out the Red Bandits in southwestern Fujian."

Commander Sun nodded

With pain in his eyes, he said: "Brigade Commander Feng"

"A grand funeral for the officers and soldiers of the cavalry battalion"

"And double the pension for the families of the cavalry battalion"

Brigade Commander Feng quickly stopped him and said, "Division Commander"

"Since we formed the German-equipped division"

"Country D is currently facing economic difficulties"

"The military budget allocated to us has been reduced by one third"

“We are now paying out double the pension.”

"Are you considering it?"

Commander Sun frowned

He sighed helplessly and said, "I'll sell my property in Shanghai later."

"We can't let the soldiers down."

What else did Brigadier General Feng want to say?

But he knew deeply that he, the division commander, loved his soldiers like his own sons.

I can't stop talking anymore

Brigade Commander Feng had no choice but to nod.

With a loud bang

Dusty

Then the horses of Sun, Feng, and Huang were startled.

Yang Tiansming

Brigade Commander Huang shouted anxiously: "Commander, be careful!"

The voice hasn't fallen

Sun, Feng, and Huang were thrown to the ground by their horses.

Then the three horses ran madly

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

A series of explosions sounded, and flames shot into the sky.

After the explosion

Sun, Feng, and Huang have become shabby and dusty.

Looking at the deep pits and corpses of the newly added soldiers on the ground of the city wall

Sun, Feng, and Huang were full of vigor and ambition before entering the city.

Only helpless anger remains

Commander Sun decisively ordered: "Inspect the entire city and eliminate all hidden dangers."

Until 11 p.m.

After confirming that Longyan City had not been trapped

The exhausted Master Sun

Then he took Feng and Huang to the Longyan Command Center

But what Sun, Feng and Huang didn't know was

Now in a dark corner of Longyan

There is a pair of eyes staring at them.

As soon as Sun, Feng and Huang sat down

Commander Sun took a breath and said, "Brigade Commander Feng, Brigade Commander Huang..."

"The supplies we brought were destroyed by the Red Bandits in Shanghang"

"Now we have occupied Longyan"

"Quickly replenish on the spot"

“Don’t let it affect our next plan.”

"Remember"

“Supplies must be purchased at market prices”

“We can’t let the people suffer losses.”

"We will continue to operate in Longyan for a long time in the future"

“Stability above all else”

Brigade Commander Huang smiled bitterly and shook his head

He replied: "Master"

"All the people in Longyan have run away."

“Where can I get more supplies?”

Commander Sun shouted in disbelief, "What?"

"There are so many people in Longyan City."

"how come......"

Speaking of this

The thought immediately appeared in Master Sun's mind.

The four words "fortify the walls and clear the fields"

Then Commander Sun trembled all over

He ordered anxiously: "Let our people withdraw from Longyan quickly."

"fast"

Brigadier General Feng and Brigadier General Huang were both confused.

After much difficulty, we conquered Longyan.

Why withdraw?

Commander Sun looked at Commander Feng. Commander Huang stood there motionless.

Suddenly, anger surged

He cursed loudly: "Burn Xinye!"

Brigade Commander Feng and Brigade Commander Huang finally woke up from their dream.

A look of fear appeared on his face

Quickly shouted: "Notify all troops!"

"Retreat quickly"

Suddenly, there was turmoil in Longyan City.

With a "bang"

Three flares streaked across the sky

A soldier hurriedly ran into the Longyan command room

Shouted loudly: "Report to the commander!"

"The houses around the headquarters suddenly flooded."

“The fire was very fierce”

“It’s almost here.”

The soldier hadn't finished speaking yet.

The loud sound of the charge horn was heard from Longyan City

Then, the earth-shaking sound of fighting came from all directions.

Brigadier General Huang shouted: "We are surrounded"

"Brigade Commander Feng"

"I will lead my men to carve out a bloody path ahead."

"Protect the Master!"

“Follow closely”

As he spoke, Brigadier General Huang took

Seized an MP18 submachine gun

He led his men out of the command center.

"Da da da"

"boom"

"boom"

"boom"

......

The battle lasted from night till dawn.

Longyan after the raging fire

The house became a ruin

The remaining walls are blackened, the roof has collapsed, and the wooden structure is charred and twisted.

The ground is covered with ash and broken rubble

The air is filled with the smell of smoke and fire

Wherever the fire passed, it left a scorched earth.

The old squad leader with bandages on his body and Zhang Dong watched

Soldiers fighting fires everywhere

Zhang Dong couldn't help but sigh

Said: "Old squad leader"

"The commander was so cruel this time."

"Trade a Longyan City for an 88th Division"

"First of all, this time we are trying to appease and compensate the people of Longyan for their losses."

"But all of Meishan's savings were gone."

"We also owe the 19th Route Army hundreds of thousands of dollars."

"Secondly, we burned down the city and killed nearly 10,000 enemies this time."

“Once exploited by someone with ulterior motives”

"They say we don't care about the lives of the people in order to win,"

"But by then, the reputation of our Southwest Fujian Red Army will be ruined."

"According to the teacher's character"

“I will definitely take all the responsibility on myself.”

"At that time he will bear the curse of the world"

"For these things"

“I am more worried about the future of the teacher.”

"This time, the fire burned Longyan"

"Almost destroyed the Kuomintang's ace 88th Division"

"Not to mention that the entire national army must hate him to the core."

“It’s us DZY”

“Once we can no longer withstand the pressure of public opinion”

"The division commander might be expelled from the Party and kicked out of the Red Army."

"Don't forget"

"The division commander's visit to the United States has not been clarified yet."

"They also privately detained the trial inspection team."

"Until that time"

"Then our commander is in China."

“I guess there’s no place for me anymore.”
