The heavens start from Changjin Lake

In the team, there was an artilleryman of the White Army who was injured and became a bandit, and later joined the soldiers of the Red Army. They fired their mortars and shelled the White Army attacking the first battalion. The frenzied attack did not capture the position of the first battalion, and the position was still firmly in the hands of the first battalion. On the contrary, the two battalions that the white army came to support could not move.

The second ignorant boy on the mountain was already dumbfounded, and he immediately reported the incident to the political commissar. Obviously, this level of fighting was not caused by Wang Lei breaking through the enemy's defense line.

Er Muzi said: "I saw it. I saw a group of people in blue clothes laying down the bamboo forest."

The political commissar asked: "What else did you see?"

Er Muzi scratched his head and said, "I just saw a group of people in blue clothes popping up in the bamboo forest. I didn't see anything else. Political commissar, what do you think is going on?"

The political commissar was also puzzled. A company-level cadre asked, "Commissioner, could it be that a dog eats a dog?"

The political commissar shook his head and said: "How could such a thing happen? The enemy is in a critical period of besieging us. It is almost impossible for this kind of thing to happen. No matter what happens, such a battle is very beneficial to us."

Supporting his weak body, he said: "Comrades, as long as the enemy fights, then we may use this opportunity to break out of the enemy's encirclement."

His gaze swept across the cave, and there were only two classes left. The bitterness on the corner of his mouth quickly subsided, and his gaze was replaced by firmness.

They fought guerrillas in the mountains for several months, and they basically ran out of ammunition and food. Just last night, they took out the only ammunition they had on their bodies and gave them to five strong fighters to cross the Nu River and go to the bamboo forest to find With a chance, they took advantage of the darkness to push out the hidden raft, and watched the five soldiers disappear into the tumbling river without a trace. They waited for a whole day, but did not receive any news, and did not know the situation of the five of them. how.

Right now, it seems that there is no way to get any more information about the few people. They can only find another way out. It is the direction of the bamboo forest that the continuous gunshots came from. I don't know which team collided with the White Army. The political commissar also led them Soldiers have fought wars and have quick thinking. They immediately judged that the present is the best time for them to stand out from the encirclement.

Er Muzi asked: "Political Commissar, which direction should we break out from?"

The political commissar's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Let's go from the south!"

After a pause, he continued: "The enemy is fighting in the north, and the south is our chance to break through. After it's completely dark, let's head south immediately, and strive to break through the enemy's blockade tonight!"

"Yes!"

The sky gradually dimmed, and the fighting in the north gradually subsided. After half a day of fighting, the casualties of the first battalion were huge, and the enemy casualties of the two battalions were equally huge.

Headquarters of the White Army, Commander Sun asked angrily: "Where did this group of enemies come from, where did they come from!"

He had only three battalions under his command, and in just one day, one battalion was abolished. Except for the one battalion that was transferred out to carry out the mission, there are only two companies of troops stationed on their side.
Sun Tuan's deputy commander thought, "Head, this group of enemies is likely to come from Ninglin County. A few days ago, the housekeeper of the magistrate's family in Ninglin County came to our side and reported to us that their A group of enemies appeared on the county border and needed support, the commander of the third battalion led people to reinforce Ninglin County, but after so many days, the commander of the third battalion did not send any news about the mission."

Leader Sun's eyes narrowed slightly, "Go, send someone to Ninglin County immediately, I need an explanation!"

At this time, a soldier hurried in from the outside, came to the door and opened his mouth and shouted: "Report to Commander Sun, Commander Qian's troops stationed in the south of Xihankou suffered a fierce attack from the enemy. It lasted for an hour, and the fighting has subsided. "

Commander Sun turned pale with fright: "What! The south is also being attacked by the enemy!?"

The adjutant looked at the map and frowned: "Commander, this doesn't seem to be the work of the communist bandits. As far as I know, no matter how capable the communist bandits are, they cannot develop to the point where they can deal with our army. The tenacious resistance of the defense and the fierceness of the attack, whether in terms of military strength or weapons and equipment, are completely different from the Communist Army we encircled and suppressed."

After a pause, he said again: "This enemy is definitely not the communist army."

Head Sun's eyes narrowed slightly: "It's not the Communist Army, who is it, who is it!"

At this time, in the south of Xihankou, the battle was over, and sporadic gunshots continued to ring out in the wilderness. In the moonlight-shrouded earth, you could see black shadows falling to the ground with the sound of gunshots. The Red Army who came down from Xihankou hid In the dense grass, staring at this scene in the distance, the seriousness of the matter seemed to be beyond imagination. The enemy stationed a battalion of troops here. Out of nowhere the team was annihilated.

The political commissar said with a puzzled face: "It's strange. Apart from the regular army, I really can't think of any other army that can have such combat effectiveness. If it's a regular army, why do you want to attack the local army here?"

The political commissar regards this group of enemies who attacked the Western Hankou to encircle and suppress the Red Army as a regular army. The combat effectiveness of the regular army is much higher than that of the local army. On the one hand, the weapons and equipment of the regular army are basically purchased from abroad; With a lot of money, the political commissar who wiped out a battalion of the enemy in an hour can only think of the enemy's regular army that he encountered in the South Lake.

"Political Commissar, the enemy is coming, there is at least one battalion." Er Muzi came out from the dark night in the distance, and said out of breath: "This group of enemies doesn't look like the White Army, the clothes they wear Weird, I've never seen it before."

Immediately afterwards, Er Muzi brought another crucial piece of news, he said: "Moreover, there is a five-pointed star on the brim of the enemy's hat."

The political commissar who was deep in thought was startled, raised his head and asked eagerly, "Are you sure you saw the five-pointed star!?"

Er Muzi nodded and said: "Yes, I touched the front and saw the group of people cleaning the battlefield under the firelight. The clothes they wore were very similar to the group of people I saw in the bamboo forest on the other side of the river. I saw clearly There is a five-pointed star on their hats."

"Five-pointed star, five-pointed star!" The political commissar stood up suddenly, with a lingering joy on his face: "Comrades, it's our own! It's our Red Army unit! The five-pointed star! That's our own!" !"

The political commissar never thought that one day he would hear the red five-pointed star here, which is the symbol of the Red Army. Although he didn't know why there was a Red Army here, the five-pointed star was their own.

In order to confirm his guess, the political commissar led them out of the grass and approached the enemy's position.

At this moment, the battlefield has been cleaned up, and the second battalion, which is the vanguard, is also entering Xihankou, while the third battalion stays on the south side, sorting out equipment and repairing fortifications to deal with the enemies that may come next.

Among the dark grass, more than a dozen figures were crawling forward. They groped forward cautiously. Through the hazy night, the political commissar and the others saw the soldiers of the third battalion who were building fortifications in the distance. At this time, the flames on the position had basically been extinguished. , the smoke left by the aftermath of the battle is filling the air, and the conversations of soldiers in the distance when they are building fortifications can be vaguely heard.

The night was a little hazy, so they couldn't see very clearly, they could only see shaking figures. The political commissar was worried, worried that these people were not the Red Army, so they would be killed by the other party, and they were looking forward to these people. It was the main force of the Red Army he was talking about.

At this time, a title from the other party strengthened his inner judgment.

"Comrade, are you okay, are you injured? Don't do it for now, leave this to me, you go to rest."

This friendly voice brought the political commissar back to his senses.

After capturing the south side, Xia Yuan was rushing to Xihankou with his people, when he suddenly heard someone shouting from behind: "Regimental Leader, Regimental Leader!"

It was the correspondent of the third battalion who stayed behind. He hurried over and said, "Regiment commander, the Red Army, we met the Red Army in Xihankou, and they are waiting for the commander in the third battalion."

Xia Yuan's eyes lit up: "Quickly, stop moving forward, let's go back!"

At the temporary headquarters, Hu Xianfeng asked the soldiers to boil some hot tea for the political commissars and them to drive away the cold. Seeing Hu Xianfeng and the others, the political commissars and others felt extremely warm in their hearts, especially the five-pointed star on their hats, which made them feel very cordial. Xia Yuan Returning in a hurry, the moment he entered the headquarters, he saw the political commissar that Yuan himself had followed.

"Xia Yuan!"

The cup in the hands of the political commissar paused in the air, his face full of shock, "Why are you!"

"Political commissar!" Xia Yuan stepped forward and said with concern, "You have suffered."

The political commissar looked puzzled and asked, "What happened?"

After Xia Yuan was scattered by the enemy, he returned to the village and re-established the red base. He told the political commissar in detail. After listening to Xia Yuan's words, the political commissar and several Red Army officials all Face of shock.

"Farmers' association, base area, Red Army, ok, great, I didn't expect you to take the wrong path we took before, and what I didn't expect was that in such a short period of time, the grinder led by you The Pingcun base area will develop so quickly."

The political commissar was filled with emotion.

Xia Yuan asked again: "Political Commissar, what happened after we were dispersed? Why were you surrounded by the White Army again?"

The political commissar said: "After being dispersed, we hid in the deep mountains and old forests. The people of the White Army searched the mountains all day. After searching for a while, they probably thought that we were all dead, so we withdrew. We drilled from the deep mountains. out."

After a pause, he sighed and said: "At that time, we went in with comrades from two platoons, but in the end only comrades from one squad came out. The red flames cannot be extinguished. We came out with the will of the soldiers." Fighting landlords in the village and developing the team, however, the red flames that had just ignited here were discovered by the White Army. They dispatched two regiments to encircle and suppress us. We walked and retreated all the way, and were finally surrounded by them Here in Xihankou."

Xia Yuan said: "Political Commissar, you have suffered, are there any comrades on the mountain?"

The political commissar said: "There are still some wounded. Their condition is already very bad. In order not to hinder our breakout, they insisted on staying and fighting guerrillas with the enemy."

Xia Yuan immediately said: "Political Commissar, I will take people to rescue them."

Under the leadership of a Red Army soldier, the soldiers of the Second Battalion came to the cave where the old Red Army lived. The scene in the cave shocked the comrades of the Second Battalion. They thought their life was hard enough, but they did not expect such a group of people Fighting tenaciously against the enemy in the cave for the hope that they could not see, their wounds were rotten and smelly due to lack of medicine.

And these Red Army wounded could no longer see any hope. When the second battalion arrived, they even thought that the enemy was attacking, and they braced themselves to fight the enemy desperately.

When they saw clearly that these people were their own, every soldier embraced and wept.

Xihankou was rescued by the Red Army surrounded by the White Army. Xia Yuan led the team to quickly retreat away from Xihankou. The first battalion was the rear team, and with the help of the fourth battalion, they also successfully got rid of the enemy. After this battle, the enemy has already No longer capable of chasing the Red Army, they could only watch the Red Army rescue the Red Army in Xihankou and then stride away, but they had nothing to do.

Returning to the base area, without the threat of foreign enemies, the Red Army has completely entered a stage of rapid development, and the development of the Red Army was watched by County Magistrate Shen, but there was nothing he could do about it. It was beyond his imagination, especially the development of their local peasant association, which terrified him. The Red Army has only appeared in his county for a long time, but the development of the peasant association has spread to nearly a hundred villages, with more than 20 members. Ten thousand people, the series of measures he had prepared before had all failed, only because of the failure of the last encirclement and suppression of the Red Army base area.

The development of the peasant association was not even expected by Xia Yuan, but it also indirectly proved a problem, that is, after experiencing exploitation and oppression, farmers in this era urgently hope to be the masters of their own affairs, and urgently hope that they can also be the masters of the country. They can live a good life, so when the peasant associations in other villages are developing vigorously, the villagers in these villages where the peasant associations have not yet developed are eager to let the peasant associations enter their local villages.

Some people even voluntarily asked the peasant association to enter their villages, but the peasant association itself was separated from the Red Army. From the establishment to the formulation of the peasant association, it was not the chairman at all who spoke within the peasant association, but the peasants themselves. The peasant association, which is the master of the house, has continuously expanded its self-organized propaganda team, so that the expansion speed exceeds Xia Yuan's imagination.

In fact, it took only two years for the Nanhu Farmers' Association to grow to tens of millions of members, with a large number and deep influence, which fundamentally made him see clearly that the revolution belonging to China should be Should it be carried out in cities, it should still be carried out in rural areas.
