Originally, there were more than 120 regiments of the White Army encircling and suppressing the Second and Sixth Army Corps.Although most of them are motley crews, the absolute number is there.However, they are all leaderless warlord-type troops, and everyone wants to preserve their strength.Everyone withdrew together with this idea in mind. When being bitten by the Red Army, all the "friendly troops" who were close at hand said, "If the friendly army is in trouble, I will let you die. I will turn to Rufeng first."

It doesn't matter if you can't outrun the Red Army, as long as you can outrun the friendly army.

As a result, the battle situation in the entire Xiangxi in the next few days became that the Red Army with less than 2 people chased more than 120 regiments and bit them fiercely. They fought four battles in three days and killed five regiments in one breath. Half ball.In such a passive situation, they directly penetrated through the encirclement of the White Army.The equipment of the troops after the red expansion has been greatly improved, and the strength of the troops has even increased slightly (a few captured soldiers and liberation fighters supplemented).

In a sense, because of Huang Ke's "successful military adventure" in Changsha, the Red Army easily broke the White Army's siege.

But Chairman Li Runshi of Tianshui was very calm about this victory.

"Looking at the situation in Hunan, in the long run, Chang Kaishen has made money. Originally, it would take some time and opportunity for him to digest Hunan, such as using the War of Resistance to consume the strength of the local warlords. But now that the top management is gone, the rest is unbearable, Tang Shengzhi and Cheng Qian came back anxiously to engage in political speculation, but it was useless. They had too little capital and could not spend the money to buy warlords from various places. In the end, these small warlords from all walks of life would still be used by Chang Kaishen with stronger power. Buying and wooing with financial strength. Afterwards, the situation in the Hunan base area will be even worse, and this is definitely not a place to stay for a long time."

The positive meaning, of course, is that the whole of Hunan will be in turmoil in the near future. During this chaotic period, the warlords of all walks of life must take preserving their strength as their first priority. This is also the best opportunity for the Second and Sixth Army to stand out from the encirclement and go north!

Therefore, after the Red Second Front Army won many big victories in three days, instead of resting and resting, they immediately went southward. The first goal was to cross the Lishui River and the Yuanjiang River, go south to central Hunan, then go west to Guizhou and then try to go north to Sichuan. .

In history, fierce battles took place when the Second Red Army rushed to cross the Lishui River, but in this plane, the defenseless defenders heard that a large number of Red Army troops had arrived, and they collectively threw down more than 30 fortresses that had been repaired for a long time, and retreated directly. Leave—the warlords in Hunan are all very smart, and now that the old chief is gone, everyone is waiting for the new master to come to power and buy him off!

Only soldiers and guns are worth being bought. No matter how hard you fight the Red Army, if you run out of soldiers, it will be nothing!Fighting against the Red Army for so many years, they know very well that this is an enemy who will bite their teeth if they are not careful. In this extraordinary period, how could it be possible to sell their liver to aid Jiang and take the initiative to serve the party and the country!

When the Red Second Front Army went south to central Hunan, the boat that Huang Ke and Elena were on was also heading up the Yuanshui River. The original plan was to join the Red Second Front Army at the Dongting River ferry.

When the small steamer on which everyone was riding was going upstream, they were surprised to see that there were continuous ferry boats going down the upstream. When asked, it was the defenders at the Dongting Creek Ferry who directly abandoned the ferry and fled... .

After being disturbed by Huang Ke in Changsha, the bandit suppression troops on the front line in Xiangxi were all desperate, and every warlord just wanted to preserve their strength so that they could "sell for a price."Although Chang Kaishen loves playing with silver coins, it takes time to buy and bargain.Li Runshi, who knew him very well, would not give Chang Kaishen the time to buy new warlords and integrate the troops in western Hunan. After the Changsha incident, when Chang Kaishen had just figured out what was going on, Li Runshi urged the Second Red Army Seizing this blank period and going south to central Hunan with all our strength, he was really caught off guard.

On November [-]th, when Zhang Xuesi finished his seven-day tour of Yan'an and retreated, and Mr. Peng regained Yan'an, Huang Ke and his party, who went up the Yuan River, also successfully "joined forces" with the Red Second Front Army at Dongting River on this day. ferry.

-------------------- Chapter 99 Chang Kaishen is so poor that he is about to hit the autumn wind --------------------

Huang Ke didn't really meet with the Red Second Army.

The reason is simple: the boatman and captain of the boat he was on were all "outsiders".Today, his identity is very sensitive. In order not to expose himself, the small steamer that everyone was riding on stopped [-] kilometers away from the mouth of Dongting Creek.

Then that night, after meeting with the vanguard members sent by the Red Second Front Army who had already captured the ferry.There, Huang Ke took out all the munitions in stock, and Liu Changfa handed them over to the other party, and then he sailed to leave.

During the whole process until the ship started to leave, Huang Ke didn't directly contact the people of the Second Red Army, but watched from a distance the comrades of the Second Red Army standing on the shore saluted him and waved goodbye.

A group of eighteen Red Army soldiers headed by Liu Changfa, after following the Red Front Army on the Long March, followed the Red Second Front Army to take another route on the Long March.

Before parting, Huang Ke apologized to Liu Changfa:

"Old Liu, it's because of my reckless behavior that you were exposed and had to go on another long march."

The old Red Army who got along well with Huang Ke said with a disapproving smile: "I have walked this road once, and I am very familiar with it, and I will get home faster this time!"

His only regret was that he couldn't participate in what Huang Ke was planning to do in Shanghai, which could be recorded in history, and the strongest "zero yuan purchase" event in history.

Historically, the number of troops before the Long March of the Second and Sixth Armies was 700, and it expanded to 7000 when they set off.When they arrived in northern Shaanxi, there were still more than 1 people—of course, thousands of people were recruited along the way.During this period, he tried to establish a base area in the Bijie area in western Guizhou, but he left because the encirclement and suppression by the KMT army could not gain a foothold.

And this round is different from history.

When the Red Second Front Army set off, it had a very clear final strategic goal and general route: that is to go south to avoid the front of the Hunan Army on the western front, then quickly advance westward into Guizhou, and then pass through Guizhou and go north into Sichuan.As long as they reached the guerrilla area in northern Sichuan, they were basically out of danger and completed the Long March.

With the secret contact with Huang Ke's side, the Second Red Army received nearly 40 rounds of ammunition at once, and the ammunition of the whole army was almost sufficient.And those three mortars and artillery shells added great confidence to the subsequent military operations.And the "unlimited supply" of antibiotics and other medical equipment from Huang Ke made it even more unnecessary for the Second Red Army to worry about wound infection.

After receiving Huang Ke's supplement, the Red Army's second army set out with sufficient ammunition, but the opponent was in chaos. It can be said that the Long March has started perfectly, and the number of people arriving in northern Sichuan will only increase in the future.

Huang Ke originally wanted to escort them with the Red Second Front Army. The infantry fighting vehicle he carried with him was basically an invincible weapon in the battlefield in China during this period.

But Tianshui insisted that he return to Shanghai as soon as possible, because now he is a "celebrity" and cannot "disappear" for too long without reason, and a series of follow-up plans on the Shanghai side cannot be separated from him and Elena work there.

In the telegram, the chairman said to Huang Ke:

"You have helped us enough, we Red Army must learn to walk and run by ourselves!"

After brushing past the comrades of the Red Second Front Army, the small steamer went down the river and returned to the Yangtze River. Huang Ke and Elena reappeared in Shanghai a few days later.

At this time, Mrs. Cutthroat and her elder brother Song Ziwen are on vacation in Shanghai.

Knowing that Huang Ke and Elena had returned from their "Yangtze River Tour", the two immediately warmly invited them to the Song family's internal banquet.

At the banquet, when everyone was chatting, it was only then that Chang Kaishen was in a bad mood during this period of time.

There is no other reason, I was annoyed by the things in northern Shaanxi and Hunan.

In northern Shaanxi, there was a tacit "fake fight" between Zhang Xueliang and the Red Army, and Chang Kaishen also saw it afterwards.But there is no way.Zhang Xueliang, who got his 700 million French currency, sent the money immediately, and his people, because they did not trust the legal currency, also used up the money immediately, and then continued to cry poorly.

Chang Kaishen angrily reprimanded Zhang Xueliang in the telegram for his ineffectiveness in suppressing the bandits. The guilty Zhang Xueliang pretended to be deaf and did not hear, but his younger brother Zhang Xuesi deliberately said strange things in front of Zhang Xueliang and his subordinates: "The chairman sent us paper money and fake money." Silver dollars, we all went out and circled around, making counterfeit and counterfeit silver dollars, we are very worthy of him!"

Everyone agrees that Xue Si is right.During this period of time, Zhang Xuesi walked up and down the Northeast Army as an intern. With Huang Ke's back support, he was generous and polite. He specifically sought out the children of the powerful generals of the Northeast Army. He recruited a group of people and formed his own team. Small group of small hills.And Zhang Xueliang was also very pleased to see his younger brother becoming more and more successful, and worked hard to cultivate him.

Faced with Chang Kaishen's accusation, Zhang Xueliang finally gave a reply under the suggestion of his younger brother: The Red Army in northern Shaanxi and Gansu is powerful, exceeding expectations, with a total strength of 20.If you want to wipe it out, you need the help of the Central Army......

When Chang Kaishen received the reply to this telegram, there were a thousand muddy horses running past in Chang Kaishen's mind...

The Red Army, the Northwest Army, and the Northeast Army have begun to "huddle together" in the northwest to fight against the Central Committee. This is what Chang Kaishen is most afraid of.These three families are really huddled together. If Yan Laoxi is added...Chang Kaishen can't imagine the consequences of this situation...

Someone under his command proposed to Chang Kaishen that the Northeast Army should stop paying completely, but Chang Kaishen was a little scared now if he really wanted to do this. went.No matter how bad the strength of that group of local chickens and dogs from the Northeast Army is, the equipment in their hands is very good...

In history, he was able to force the Northeast Army to do this and that, because there were only 12 Red Army in northern Shaanxi, and he still had Hu Zong in the south to monitor the formation.But now, the Red Army over there has exceeded [-], and the southern part of Hu Zong has been wiped out.Unless he was willing to bet his old capital and increase his investment, he really didn't have the place to talk to Kaishen in the northwest.

"The two thieves Zhang and Yang colluded with the Communist bandits, and the situation in the Northwest has become hopelessly corrupt!" - "Chang Kaishen Diary"

When writing this diary, Chang Kaishen looked up to the sky and sighed: the good old days when you could play with nothing but drive tigers and devour wolves with nothing, are gone forever.

He resentfully focused his attention on the Hunan side. This time he was slapped together in Hunan, and his face was completely humiliated, but the upper-level military leaders were wiped out, which instead gave Chang Kaishen the opportunity to digest Hunan as quickly as possible.

Those local powerful "little warlords" who are no longer under the control of the old army chiefs are "free" and "turned over to become masters".As long as the money is enough, calling him Chang Kaishen's father is not a problem!

In fact, Chang Kaishen had already planned to do so.

Who knew he would touch his pocket...

There is a song that can express his current state.

"Holding steamed buns in my hands..."

That's right, Chang Kaishen is actually poor now and has no money!

Don't think that Chang Kaishen's silver coins have been well spent in the past nine years. This money did not fall from the sky.

He suppressed the Communist Party in the south for nine years, and the military expenditure was also very high!If it hadn't been for the five encirclement and suppression victories in history, and when the Long March pursued the Red Army, he would have successfully swallowed the three provinces of Hunan, Guizhou, and Sichuan, and the increase in financial resources would have given him a big sigh of relief.Otherwise, if we fight for another year, the finances of the Nanjing Nationalist Government will go bankrupt—why did Song Ziwen resign at this time? By the end of 1933, the Jiangsu-Zhejiang consortium couldn't support the transportation of military expenses, so it resigned (run away) and left.

And in this plane, Chang Kaishen first won a big victory in the long march to pursue and suppress, but was defeated in Sichuan.Gannan was also lost, and Hu Zongnan, the pro-guard army, was also gone, with a serious loss of strength.And recently, even the piece of meat in Hunan, which has been in the stomach, has been "stoned" because of Huang Ke's operation to dig a hole.

It is not difficult to forcibly digest Hunan: just throw the silver coin bomb again and feed the local powerful factions.

These local powerful factions are not the starving ghosts of the Northeast Army who are so poor that they can't even eat "paper". What they want is silver dollars, which is hard currency, not "paper" like French currency.

As his strength has declined, the credibility and promotion of the legal currency issued have naturally declined.

Chang Kaishen looked at his wallet, and his finance minister, Kong Xiangxi, hurriedly sang to him, "There are 33 yuan in my pocket..."

In addition to printing money, the Nanjing National Government really can't produce much hard currency at this time-the remaining hard currency is used as a deposit for legal currency.In the past year, Roosevelt's Silver Act has drained the Nanjing government's small inventory of precious metals.

When Chang Kaishen wanted to drive them to pursue and suppress the Red Army, the reason for these gangsters to release the water was actually upright at this time-the army owed their salary, and the chairman of the committee should pay the salary!Moreover, it is necessary to pay attention to the ocean and not to use paper!

Huang Ke bought it for zero yuan that day and emptied the bank in Hunan. Now the hundreds of regiments on the front line have no food money for next month!In the minds of this group of people, it was you, Chang Kaishen, who robbed Changsha. Don't pretend, it's you!

Under the situation where Huang Ke was blamed, he tried to deal with the Hunan army with French currency, but what he got was an angry response from all the people in Hunan——

"You, Chang Kaishen, you ordered the Central Army to sack Changsha, loot the bank of the Hunan Provincial Government, and remove all the military pay that was supposed to be issued to us, and now you use printed paper to deal with us? This is not sending off beggars, this is his f*ck who is treating the entire Hunan Army as two hundred and fifty and thirteen points!"

The legal currency newly issued by Chang Kaishen has been completely boycotted in the Hunan market.And this kind of resistance also made it hard for Wei Lihuang, who had just entered Hunan to pursue and suppress the Second Red Army.His troops were the first to be paid in French currency. Now Hunan can't buy anything with legal currency, and the central government's eyes are red all over the place.

Wei Lihuang called Chang Kaishen back, and now the army has already had a small conflict with the local government. If they provoke the Hunan people again, the consequences will be disastrous!

If they can't spend silver coins, the little warlords in Hunan will be dishonest and unwilling to obey. If Chang Kaishen wants to win the hearts of Hunan people, the method is very simple: just return us all the money that was robbed in Changsha!

Because of Huang Ke's zero-yuan purchase, Hunan, which was originally a land of fish and rice and could bring "positive income" to Chang Kaishen, has turned into a big black hole this year where he wants to dig meat from other places to fill the hole!

"He fucking Li Runshi, you came to Changsha to rob under my banner, but afterwards you want me to take the blame for you and pay for you to fill the hole!"

This is the reason why Chang Kaishen spurted a mouthful of old blood into the sky.

At this time, the Red Second Front Army was digging around like a loach in central Hunan, and its movement was obvious: preparing to leave Hunan.This is the ending that many warlords in Hunan most want to see. As long as the Red Army does not establish a base in Hunan and the Red Army wants to leave, we will beat the drums to see them off, and we can even "give way" in a friendly way. ——Even in the Battle of Xiangjiang, where the Red Army suffered the most losses, in fact, if it weren’t for the three-member regiment’s various miraculous maneuvers to climb turtles, no matter it was the Guangxi Clan or the Hunan Army, before the Battle of Xiangjiang, they would have deliberately dawdled and released water, just wanting to catch up The Red Army walked rather than fought recklessly.

With regard to Tianshui, Chairman Li Runshi clearly grasped the mentality of the Chinese warlords' "guardian dog". Guizhou.

And the entire Hunan Army in western Hunan has basically made a "friendly" gesture of giving up the passage and sending off the Red Army.When the Red Army passed through the house, if they could pay for it, they were even willing to secretly sell food along the way!As for the Red Second Front Army that Huang Ke had been in contact with, they didn't need to fight local tyrants at this time and were not short of military expenses.So along the way, there was almost no fighting, and it was all armed marches for many days...

Chang Kaishen wants to drive the Hunan Army to chase and kill the Red Army, so he has to pay, a lot of money, and he has to go to the ocean!And the money paid must be enough to compensate for the huge loss of "the central army looting Changsha"!

This is why Chang Kaishen was so angry that he almost vomited blood and hanged himself!

"Ah! I really didn't do what happened in Changsha!"

Therefore, he could only watch helplessly as the Red Second Front Army easily left Xiangxi and broke into Guizhou under the indulgence and farewell of the "Xiang Army".Now, Wei Lihuang, who had been blamed, didn't have to worry about being rejected when he entered Hunan—because he was separated from the Red Army by a Hunan, and it would be cold after chasing him, and now he could return to Henan.

Chang Kaishen, who was restless and enraged when he saw that the situation in Hunan's great bandit suppression was in dire straits, had finally clashed with Kong Xiangxi and Song Ziwen recently.

The specific process can be described as follows.

Chang: "I need money, give me money!"

Kong (hollows out his four pockets): The Ministry of Finance really has no money......

Song: The Jiangsu-Zhejiang Consortium has been drained...I don't have the face to see my fathers and folks from Jiangsu and Zhejiang...

At the same time, Kong and Song secretly grabbed the money bags on their back waists, which contained the 500 million US dollars they had just earned.

Chang (looking at the purses of the two): "Last time, when you sold the streptomycin privately, it seemed that you hadn't handed it over..."

Kong and Song raised their heads, looked up at the sky at 45 degrees together, and whistled...

Chang Kaishen: "What kind of expression do you guys have..."

Kong and Song: "Chairman, it's time to settle the debts owed by Zhang Xueliang, Shi Yousan, Han Fuqu, and Chen Jitang when they used silver coins..."

Chang Kaishen: "Mother Xipi..."

Regarding the matter of streptomycin, Huang Ke and Elena did not pay taxes, but after seeing the PPT written by Huang Ke, Chang Kaishen still counted on the two of them to build a golden mountain for him to make a fortune. Offend these two big benefactors at this time.On the contrary, Kong and Song looked more and more like two maggots in his eyes.

However, he could only endure these two maggots.

Chang Kaishen suddenly became extremely envious of his mortal enemy.

Although the other party is poor, his subordinates are all capable subordinates who would rather eat chaff and grass roots than to follow him in the revolution, and his own subordinates and allies are all fucking scum!

Chang Kaishen, who was full of depression and anger and had no place to release, spoke a little harshly when facing Madam Cut Throat afterwards, which offended Meiling as well, and then she ran to Shanghai, just in time for the three sisters of the Song family and the third daughter-in-law of the Song family to be in Shanghai. big party.

And Huang Ke and Elena just came back from the Yangtze River swim, and the group of women who heard the news immediately invited them into their home.

The members of the Song family have a very good attitude towards Huang Ke and Elena, especially towards Huang Ke.

The reason is that although Eileen is beautiful, her beauty only has a lethal effect on males, and in the eyes of women, it is actually a disadvantage.As for Huang Ke, his actual age is only 30 years old. After being blessed in another world and fine-tuned his body, he is even more handsome.In the eyes of this group of Song family women in their [-]s, they are simply capable and handsome "perfect little fresh meat".

If it wasn't for the scary background of the husbands behind all these women, and Xiao Huang Ke was really not interested in these "old women" in their thirties, it would be difficult for the guy next door named Zhou Qingfeng to be here. One day, there will be some shocking scandal of "the sisters of the Song family and the daughter-in-law of the Song family are both pregnant".
