Seeing the two people walking into the conference room with smiles on their faces, Liu Hua knew that the troops must have achieved great results this month.
"Political Commissar, Director Li, you can't even close your mouth when you smile. What's so happy about you? Let's talk about it and let's be happy together." Liu Hua said with a smile.
"Well, Corps Commander, you don't know how much we have achieved this month." The political commissar said happily.
"Yes, Commander of the Corps, the results of the battle have been great. Now I finally understand why the people in western Hunan are so poor." Director Li Qing also said with a smile.
"Why? Tell me." Liu Hua immediately became interested.
"Legion Commander, no way, this idea was yours. You don't even know, haha, I thought you knew everything?" Li Qing immediately seized the opportunity and said.
"What!" Liu Hua stared at the two of them.
"Haha, it's because there are too many bandits in western Hunan. All the people's things have been robbed by the bandits. How can we not be poor?" Director Li Qing said with a smile.
"You guys are mad at me. I am your boss, and you actually...Okay, stop talking, tell me the results of the army this month." Liu Hua said with a wry smile.
"Commander of the Army, I am responsible for recruiting troops, let me tell you first! After a month of training in each unit, we have annihilated 32 enemy bandits, large and small, and killed more than 2,000 bandits in total, including more than 1,700 prisoners. Through our efforts, about
1,450 prisoners are willing to join our army. Coupled with the recruitment of each division this month, the new regiment has now reached more than 2,300 people. Now under the leadership of He Tie, basic routine training is carried out, and it is very
If there are results, they can be added to the main force at any time." Political Commissar Guan Xiangying said with a smile.
"Well, the results are not small. Where is Director Li?" Liu Hua looked at Director Li Qing again.
"Legion commander, don't look at me. My achievements are also very rich. I'll scare you when I tell you. Let's talk about gold first. Gold is abundant here in Xiangxi. This month, we collected a total of 21 kilograms of gold, and more than 50,000 yuan from the ocean.
If there are pieces of grain, that would be even more. A total of about 300,000 kilograms of grain have been collected. In addition to the seizures and purchases by our troops in several major battles, the grain of the army is now reaching 1.5 million kilograms. In this way, even if no seizures are made in the future, it will be enough.
Our whole army has been eating for four months. Commander, how are you doing? Are the results great?" After speaking, he glared at Liu Hua dissatisfied.
"Haha, it seems that I am the only one who has achieved the smallest results. After a month of training and actual combat training, the combat effectiveness of the army has been greatly improved. I dare not say that the current combat effectiveness of a regiment of 1,000 people is better than the original 1,500 people. At least
It will not be weaker than the original main force." Liu Hua also said with a smile.
"Well, Commander of the Corps, it seems that we have achieved great results this month. Why don't the three of us celebrate today!" the political commissar immediately reminded.
"I agree," Director Li Qing immediately agreed.
"Since you all said so, I have no choice but to obey." Liu Hua said with a smile.
…
In this way, another month passed quickly. Although the combat effectiveness of the troops was getting stronger and stronger, Liu Hua was not happy because of this because he knew that the Second Red Army Corps' time in western Hunan was getting less and less. Chiang Kai-shek's
The second Red Army's largest and last encirclement and suppression of powerful enemies was about to begin. After this heavy-force encirclement and suppression, and the Fourth Red Army's heavy losses under the leadership of Zhang Guotao, the Red Army could no longer withstand serious losses. In order to
To strengthen the strength of the Red Army and concentrate its forces, the Central Committee decided to transfer the Second Red Army Corps to northern Shaanxi and reunite the entire army. Thus, the Long March of the Second Red Army Corps began.
Although the Seventh Red Army was created due to his arrival, which greatly strengthened the strength of the Second Red Army, the overall development path has not changed. Through the intelligence from the headquarters, Liu Hua knew that hundreds of thousands of troops were now surrounding the base area.
Be ready to launch an encirclement and suppression campaign against the base area at any time.
In order to cope with the enemy's heavy encirclement and suppression, the three legions in the base area are now fully prepared, and similarly, the seventh legion is also ready to respond.
After Liu Hua's order, every soldier in the army now carries 10 days of dry food with him. At the same time, each regiment's baggage company carries 20 days of food for its own regiment. The remaining 1 million kilograms of food are all loaded on mules and horses for preparation.
Transferring, all personnel are preparing for the arrival of the big battle.
