Rebirth from the Ashes: Rebuilding the Red Soviet Area

Li Yan quickly asked, "Are you talking about the Taoist priest, the little beggar, and the others?"

Song Tao said: "Yes"

"Let Tong Liang speak."

Tong Liang said: "Instructor"

“Here’s the situation.”

"After the enemy has withdrawn"

"We were going to join you at Jinggangshan immediately."

"But the soldiers haven't had food or salt for half a month."

“If you are hiking to Jinggangshan”

“There will be non-war sacrifices”

"So Captain Song and Captain Gao discussed it."

"Let me take people to Suxi Town to buy some food and salt."

"Let the soldiers recover their strength"

"Wait until I bring people to Suxi Town"

“I just heard something from the local people.”

"The locals said that the 46th Division of the Nationalist Army once attacked a group of Red Army soldiers in Suxi Town."

"Public torture"

"First, warn local people not to turn red."

"Second, they forced us to tell them the whereabouts of the rest of us."

“I was very careful at that time.”

"I secretly found a few fellow villagers to ask about the appearance of this group of Red Army soldiers."

"Final confirmation"

"These Red Army soldiers are indeed the Taoist deputy captain and the little beggar and others."

Li Yan asked anxiously, "What happened next?"

Tong Liang continued, "Later I heard that before the 46th Division withdrew from Suxi Town..."

"Another group of national army troops has arrived"

"Take the Taoist deputy captain and the little beggar away."

“It is said that these people came from Nanchang.”

Li Yan fell silent again

Leopard said anxiously: "Instructor"

"We can't help but save the Taoist priests."

"There are only a dozen or so people left in the Dragon Blood Special Operations Brigade now."

Li Yan ignored the leopard

But stand up

Pick up a pack of cigarettes on the table

Light

took a deep puff

Then pace back and forth in the room

Quickly entered into thinking

What else does Leopard want to say?

Tong Liang grabbed him

Whispered: "Captain"

“The news I received was from a week ago.”

"Calculated according to current time"

"Deputy Taoist Captain and others"

“Now he has been sent to Nanchang.”

The leopard's face changed

The body softens

Slumped on a stool

Li Yan was also feeling unhappy at this time.

He put a lot of effort into the Dragon Blood Special Forces

Personally selected and trained elites

I've fought alongside you for so long.

As close as brothers

It hurts a person

Li Yan couldn't bear to leave

What's more, the Dragon Blood Special Forces are now dead and injured.

How could Li Yan not want to save people?

But the reality does not allow

There are only more than 200 people on our side, and there are also wounded.

Let’s not talk about going to Nanchang first

Even if we go down to Jinggang Mountain, we will be wiped out by the enemy.

He couldn't save the Taoist priests.

Let everyone be buried with him

When Li Yan was struggling

He suddenly saw the newspaper on the table

Suddenly my eyes lit up

I immediately picked up the newspaper and started reading

front-page headlines in newspapers

There are a few big words written on it

The Young Marshal Refuses to Surrender, the Nationalist Army Assembles

On December 16, 1936, after the Nationalist government failed to persuade the young marshal to surrender,

Letters and telegrams were exchanged between various circles in China, demanding a crusade against

The Political Committee decided to send He as the commander-in-chief of the anti-rebel army.

The Air Force then launched bombing raids on cities near Xi'an and gradually turned towards Xi'an.

The young marshal asked the national army to suspend military operations to avoid escalation of the conflict.

......

See here

Li Yan asked: "Song Tao"

"What date is it now?"

Song Tao replied: "December 20, 1937"

Li Yan calculated the time

He said with renewed energy: "It's not too late"

"leopard"

"Now go and prepare ten fast horses."

"We will immediately go to Nanchang"

Gao Xuan, Song Tao, and Tong Liang all opened their eyes wide in disbelief.

Leopard couldn't believe it and said: "Instructor"

"You said you were going to Nanchang"

Li Yan said again with certainty: "Yes"

"Let's go to Nanchang"

"I must rescue the Taoist priests."

Before the leopard cheers

Song Tao interrupted directly and said: "Commander"

"You can't be impulsive"

"Although the national army withdrew the troops that encircled and suppressed us,"

"But they returned to their respective defense areas."

“Strengthened defenses in various locations”

"Also from here to Nanchang"

"It must be thoroughly checked by the national army."

"Let's not talk about whether we can reach Nanchang smoothly."

“We arrived in Nanchang.”

"Nanchang is the headquarters of the Nationalist Army."

“Heavily guarded”

"How can we rescue them?"

“This is simply impossible to accomplish.”

In fact, Song Tao didn't say anything more.

Go to Nanchang to rescue people

That's stirring up a hornet's nest.

Seeking one's own death

Gao Xuan also said anxiously: "Master"

"You always say I'm impulsive"

"Why are you so impulsive?"

"What if something happens to you?"

“How can I explain this to the old squad leader and the others?”

The leopard also reacted

Said: "Instructor"

“I was too anxious.”

"Lost in thought"

......

Li Yan listened to several people talking and persuading him

He could not help but shout angrily: "Everyone stand at attention!"

Gao Xuan, Song Tao, Bao Zi, and Tong Liang

Shut up immediately

Stand up straight quickly

Li Yan stared at Gao Xuan and the other four people in front of him.

But said nothing

Suddenly the room fell into deathly silence.

One minute, two minutes...

Gao Xuan and the other three began to sweat.

They knew Li Yan was really angry

But they don't know why Li Yan is angry

Five minutes passed

Li Yancai asked coldly: "Gao Xuan, tell me..."

"who are you?"

Gao Xuan's scalp tightened and he said, "Report to the commander."

"I am the commander of the 71st Regiment of the 24th Red Division"

"Song Tao, what about you?"

"I am the commander of the special forces battalion of the 24th Red Division"

"leopard"

......

After the four people answered

Li Yan slammed the table hard with his hand

He shouted loudly: "You still know your identity?"

"You dissuaded me from going to Nanchang"

"The reason is simply that the enemy is very powerful."

“But you forget how we grew from just 20 people to where we are today.”

"You have also forgotten the spirit a soldier should have."

"It seems this battle"

"Not only did it severely damage your fighting spirit"

“It also destroyed your courage.”

“You guys disappoint me so much.”

Gao Xuan gritted his teeth

He retorted: "Master"

"You can't wrong us"

"Although we suffered heavy losses in this battle"

“But we didn’t lose our courage.”

“Don’t you always tell us?”

"Be careful in everything you do"

"Besides"

“What we say is true.”

Li Yan glared at Gao Xuan: "You are still not convinced?"

"I'm telling you what the truth is"

"It is a fact that we, more than 20 people at the time, dared to fight against two platoons of the Nationalist Army."

"It is a fact that we, with only a few hundred men, dared to destroy the enemy's ace 83rd Division."

"It is a fact that we drove out eight divisions of the Nationalist army with the strength of one brigade."

......

"It is precisely because we have not lost the bravery and fearlessness of our soldiers."

“We have come to this day step by step.”

“I just proposed going to Nanchang.”

“You don’t ask me any reason.”

"Just oppose it directly and tell me it's impossible."

"Before the battle begins, they are afraid"

"You tell me"

"Isn't this a loss of fighting spirit and courage?"

Gao Xuan, Song Tao, Leopard, and Tong Liang all blushed.

Especially Gao Xuan and Song Tao

In less than a month

Seeing with my own eyes a team of nearly 1500 people

In the end, only about 200 people were left.

Although they are all bloody men

But this battle

How much they are frightened
