Replay of classic battles of the Red Army’s Long March
The victory of the Long March of the Red Army of Chinese Workers and Peasants is a miracle in human history. The Red Army broke through the encirclement and interception of the Kuomintang troops, withstood the test of hardships and obstacles, and finally successfully completed the strategic transfer task. The victory of the Red Armys Long March created important conditions for the development of a new situation in the Chinese revolution and revolutionary war.
The Battle of Xiangjiang River: the most tragic battle in the Long March. In mid-November 1934, the Central Red Army broke through the enemys three blockades and entered the Jiahe, Lanshan, and Linwu areas of southern Hunan. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek truly understood the purpose of the Red Armys strategic shiftground. He appointed the leader of the Hunan Army, He Jian, as the commander-in-chief of the "Pursuit and Suppression Army", mobilized the Hunan Army and the Gui Army, deployed heavy troops on both sides of the Xiangjiang River nearly 300 miles between Lingling and Xing'an, built bunkers, and set up a fourth blockade. Wire. Chiang Kai-shek personally led the Kuomintang Central Armys Zhou Hunyuan Department and part of the Hunan Army to pursue them. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek was very ambitious and elated, thinking that he would be able to annihilate the Red Army between the Xiangjiang River and Xiaoshui River.
On November 20, Bai Chongxi saw a unit of the Red Army occupying Jianghua in southern Hunan and rushing towards Gongcheng, Guangxi. Bai Chongxi, like the Guangdong and Hunan armies, was unwilling to fight hard with the Red Army and be consumed. In order to prevent the Red Army from entering the province or being swallowed up by Chiang Kai-shek, they suddenly withdrew their troops from Xing'an, Quanzhou, and Guanyang on November 21 on the pretext of insufficient troops and to prevent the Red Army from marching southward to Guangxi. This caused the emergence of the Xiangjiang defense line jointly defended by the Hunan-Guangxi warlords. created a gap. In order to protect themselves, He Jian did not send troops south to take over the defense as soon as possible, leaving the 130-mile defense line without troops for seven days.
The opportunity to successfully pass the fourth blockade has arrived. Unfortunately, the Red Army failed to seize this opportunity.
On November 25, the Central Military Commission issued an order to cross the Xiangjiang River. The leading troops of the 1st Red Army rushed to Jieshou on November 27, occupied the ferry without fighting, and soon controlled both sides of the Xiangjiang River 60 miles north of Jieshou. At this time, the Military Commission column also arrived at the Guiyan area north of Guanyang, less than 80 kilometers away from the ferry.
The remaining problem is to buy time. Urgent orders came one after another. Unfortunately, the Central Military Commission column just couldn't speed up its march. On November 26, I walked 8 kilometers; on the 27th, I walked only 6 kilometers; on the 28th, I walked 28 kilometers; on the 29th, I walked 32 kilometers. It took four days to reach the bank of the Xiangjiang River
On November 29, the Hunan Army and the Guangxi Army swarmed in, and the enemy launched an attack on the Red Army that was crossing the river. In order to protect the Party Central Committees safe crossing of the river, the Red Army soldiers on both sides of the Taiwan Strait launched a desperate battle with the superior enemy forces. On the Red Armys blocking position, the explosions of artillery shells and heavy bombs were heard constantly. Many soldiers who had no time to build fortifications were stunned and suffered from ear and nose bleeding. The Red Army, which was poorly equipped, had to use its flesh and blood to withstand the indiscriminate bombing of enemy aircraft and heavy artillery. One can imagine the cruelty of the battle. However, the slogan "Protect the central column to cross the river safely" still resounded over the position.
On December 1, the battle reached a fever pitch. The enemy launched a full-line attack on me, trying to recapture the ferry and annihilate me halfway across the river. This is a battle of life and death, a battle of wills. When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins. The Red Army soldiers used bayonets and grenades to defeat the enemys entire company and battalion attacks one after another. The blood of countless Red Army soldiers was shed on both sides of the Xiangjiang River, and the ferry was always firmly in the hands of the Red Army. By 17:00 that day, the central government agencies and the Red Army troops finally crossed the Xiangjiang River in a desperate effort.
The Battle of Xiangjiang River was the most heroic and most heroic battle since the Central Red Army broke through.In the crucial battle, our army fought hard with the superior enemy and finally tore through the enemys heavily fortified blockade and shattered Chiang Kai-sheks attempt to encircle and annihilate the Red Army east of the Xiangjiang River.
Although the Red Army broke through the fourth blockade, it paid a huge price. The 5th Army Corps and the International Division of the Communist Party of China established on the eve of the Long March lost more than half, and the 8th Army Corps suffered even more heavy losses. The 34th Division was heavily surrounded by enemies. All officers and men fought bloody battles until they ran out of ammunition and food, and most of their comrades died heroically. After crossing the Xiangjiang River, the number of the two columns of the Central Red Army and the Central Military Commission had dropped sharply from 86,000 at the time of departure to 30,000.
Comment: The Battle of Xiangjiang was the biggest defeat in the history of the Red Army. The bloody facts declared the complete bankruptcy of the "Left" dogmatic military line, which brought the majority of Red Army commanders and soldiers' doubts and dissatisfaction with Wang Mings line to a climax, as well as their active demand for a change in leadership.
Four crossings of Chishui: a wonderful piece of mobile warfare. In January 1935, after the Zunyi Conference, Mao Zedong led 30,000 Red Army troops here and met the Sichuan Army that intercepted the Red Army. Chairman Mao Zedong, Vice Chairman Zhou Enlai, and Chief of General Staff Liu Bocheng analyzed the situation at hand and felt that the situation was serious; the battle at Qinggangpo failed to eliminate the chasing enemies, and more and more enemy troops gathered around, making the war situation unfavorable to us. They decided to seize the nearby ferry immediately and prepare to get rid of the enemy. Gao Xiang, the leader of the "Xingguo Regiment" who was dismissed for resisting the wrong route and became a soldier in the "Ruijin Regiment", took the initiative to lead dozens of Red Army troops to seize the ferry. The pontoon bridge and the small town on the other side opened the way for the large group of Red Army to get rid of the enemy. The Red Army crossed Chishui and entered the Tashi area of ??Yunnan.
Chiang Kai-shek believed that the time had come to annihilate the Red Army, and ordered Wang Daoyuan, director of the Inspectorate Office, to step up the encirclement and suppression of the Red Army and asked him to strengthen control over the Yunnan warlords. Wang rushed to Guiyang, held a military meeting, and mobilized 400,000 troops to surround the Tashi area in an attempt to annihilate the Red Army in one fell swoop. Chairman Mao and the head of the headquarters studied the enemys situation and prepared to use mobile warfare to deal with the enemy. While the enemy was heavily encircling Tashi and northern Guizhou was empty, the Red Army crossed Chishui eastward and quickly returned to the division. The main force of the Red Army crossed Chishui for the second time and captured the ferry. Gao Xiang was appointed as the leader of the "Ruijin Regiment". The Ruijin Regiment made a surprise attack on Loushanguan to liberate Zunyi City. There were loud gongs and drums in Zunyi City, and people were celebrating the victory. But in that historic building, Red Army leaders were preparing for a new battle. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek was furious in Chongqing. He ordered bunker warfare combined with heavy offensives to deal with the Red Army in an attempt to eliminate the Red Army north of Wujiang River. After careful consideration, Mao Zedong decided that the Red Army would cross Chishui three times, creating momentum to cross the Yangtze River north. The Red Army crossed Chishui three times, dragging down the Kuomintangs pursuers, and then suddenly turned eastward, crossed Chishui four times, and forded the Wujiang River south, leaving the enemys main force behind. The "Ruijin Regiment" completed the task of leading the enemy westward and chased the main force to the vicinity of Guiyang.They took the initiative to seize the enemys Heishuipu military station in the nearby new battlefield, causing chaos in the enemys city of Guiyang. Lu Qingsong, the political commissar of the "Ruijin Regiment", died in the melee. Chiang Kai-shek was afraid that the Red Army would capture Guiyang, so he urgently mobilized the Yunnan Army for reinforcements. The exhausted Yunnan Army was led eastward by the Red Army and suffered a heavy blow. The main force of the Red Army marched into Yunnan and calmly crossed the Jinsha River in early May. At this point, the Red Army completely got rid of the enemys strategic encirclement, switched from the inner line to the outer line, and began a new great journey.
Comment: This battle is a famous battle in the history of Chinese wars that used flexible troops. It occupies an important position in the history of Chinese wars. Under the command of Mao Zedong, the Central Red Army attacked in the east and in the west and in the north, using flexible and changeable tactics. , cleverly interspersed between the heavy groups of the Kuomintang army, created fighter opportunities, wiped out the enemy one by one, threw away the heavy Kuomintang army, and achieved a decisive victory in the strategic shift, writing the proud chapter of his military career.
Flying to seize Luding Bridge: 22 warriors wrote a miracle. In early May 1935, the Central Red Armys Long March crossed the Jinsha River from Jiaoping, Yunnan Province, and continued northward along the Huili-Xichang Avenue, preparing to cross the Dadu River and enter northwest Sichuan. Chiang Kai-shek urgently ordered Xue Yue, the frontline commander of the 2nd Route Army, to lead the main force to cross the Jinsha River north to attack Xichang, Sichuan Province; he ordered the main force of the 24th Army of the Sichuan Army to build forts along the left bank of the Dadu River from Luding to Fulin (now Hanyuan) to block the attack; The main force of the 20th Army and the first part of the 21st Army advanced towards the Ya'an and Fulin areas to strengthen the defense forces north of the Dadu River. In an attempt to rely on the natural dangers of the Dadu River to attack the south and block the north, the Central Red Army was encircled and annihilated in the area south of the Dadu River.
The Dadu River is a major tributary of the Minjiang River. The river is 300 meters wide and the water is deep and fast. There are steep mountains on both sides of the river. The terrain is dangerous and it is extremely difficult for large troops to pass through. On the evening of May 24, the 1st Regiment of the 1st Division, the leading force of the Central Red Army, arrived at Anshun Field on the right bank of the Dadu River after a forced march of more than 80 kilometers. This place is garrisoned by two companies of the Sichuan Army, and the ferry is defended by a battalion of the 7th Regiment of the 5th Brigade of the 24th Army of the Sichuan Army. That night, the 1st Red Regiment, led by regimental Political member Li Lin, led the 2nd Battalion to the lower reaches of the ferry to feign an attack. The Regiment Commander Yang Dezhi led the 1st Battalion to hide in three groups despite the rain. Approaching Anshun Field, they suddenly launched an attack. After more than 20 minutes of fighting, they defeated two companies of the Sichuan Army, occupied Anshun Field, and found a wooden boat near the ferry.
On May 25, 17 warriors of the 1st Regiment (Commander Yang Dezhi) of the 1st Division of the 1st Red Army Corps (Commander-in-Chief Lin Biao and Political Commissar Nie Rongzhen) forcibly crossed the Dadu River at Anshun Field in Mianning County (now Shimian County) Success. The water here is deep and fast, making it difficult to build a bridge. In addition, there is a lack of ships, and it is difficult for all large troops to cross the river within a few days. At this time, Chiang Kai-shek urgently mobilized two brigades of the Sichuan Army to reinforce the Luding Bridge. As the pursuing troops approached, the Central Revolutionary Military Commission wanted to quickly cross the Dadu River,It was decided that the 1st Red Division and the cadre regiment would continue to cross the river from Anshun Field and go north along the left bank of the river; the main force would march north from Anshun Field along the right bank of the Dadu River, crossing the river on both sides and marching straight to Luding Bridge to defeat the Kuomintang armys attempt to encircle and annihilate the Red Army. Plan south of the Dadu River. The 4th Regiment of the 2nd Division of the 1st Red Army (Regiment Commander Huang Kaixiang, also known as Wang Kaixiang, and Political Commissar Yang Chengwu) set out from Anshunchang on the 27th and advanced along the right bank of the river. They successively defeated the Kuomintangs Sichuan Armys blockade at Menghugang, Moses and other places. After 2 They forced their way 160 kilometers day and night and occupied the west bridgehead of Luding Bridge on the morning of the 29th. The Luding Bridge spans the Sichuan-Kangmao Road, with a total length of more than 100 meters and a width of 2.8 meters. It is composed of 13 iron cables and bridge decks. It spans the raging Dadu River. There are cliffs on both sides. The east bridge head and Luding City connected. The 38th Regiment of the 4th Brigade of the Sichuan Army (less than 1 battalion) was stationed in Luding City on the east side of the bridge. Strong defenses were built at the east bridge head. Before the arrival of the Red Army, all the bridge decks had been demolished, except for 13 iron cables. At 16:00 that day, 22 warriors from the 2nd Company of the 4th Red Regiment, led by company commander Liao Dazhu, formed a commando team. Under the cover of the entire regiments firepower, they braved the intensive firepower of the defenders and climbed the iron rope to bravely attack the other side. When they approached the bridgehead, The Sichuan army suddenly deployed a fire barrier, and the commandos bravely passed through the fire wall, captured the bridgehead, rushed into Luding City, and started a street battle with the Sichuan army. The follow-up troops of the Red Army crossed the river and entered the battle in time to occupy Luding County. One part of the Sichuan army was wiped out, and the rest fled towards the sky. At the same time, the 1st Red Division and the Cadre Regiment defeated the Sichuan Armys blockade, successfully reached Luding City, and coordinated the 4th Red Regiments battle to seize the bridge.
Comment: In this battle, the Red Army moved quickly and fought bravely. It captured the Luding Bridge with only 22 people, which is a miracle. In the battle, the CCP defeated a regiment of the Sichuan Army, captured more than 100 people, and surrendered more than 100 guns. The main force of the Central Red Army successfully passed through the naturally dangerous Dadu River, shattering the Kuomintang Armys dream of making the Red Army the second Shi Dakai.
Fierce battle in Zhiluo Town: Lure the enemy deep into the territory, attack in the east and attack in the west. In October 1935, the 1st and 3rd Corps of the Central Red Army successfully arrived at Wuqi Town, Baoan County, Shaanxi-Gansu Base Area, successfully ending the Long March. On November 3, the Northwest Revolutionary Military Commission was established in accordance with the decision of the Party Central Committee, with Mao Zedong as chairman, Zhou Enlai and Peng Dehuai as vice-chairmen, and the Red 15th Army Corps was incorporated into the Red 1st Front Army, with a total of about 11,000 people, and Peng Dehuai was the commander. , Mao Zedong served as political commissar.
The Central Red Army successfully arrived in northern Shaanxi. Chiang Kai-shek was extremely uneasy. He mobilized 5 divisions of the Northeast Army and used Dong Yingbin’s 4 divisions as the west route. They dispatched from Qingyang and Heshui and passed through Taibai Town. Advance eastward along the Hulu River; take Wang Yizhes 1st Division as the east route, push forward from Luochuan first, and then advance westward along the Hulu River via Yangquan Town, in an attempt to advance from east to west and encircle and annihilate our army in the area between the Hulu River and Luo River. In order to crush the enemys new attack, Mao Zedong and Peng Dehuai decided to concentrate their forces and fight southward. They would first annihilate the enemys eastward advance along the Hulu River in the Zhiluo Town area, and then transfer their forces to annihilate the enemy one by one. On November 19, the 1st and 15th Army Corps of the Red Army entered the northeast and southeast areas of Zhiluo Town respectively, and gathered in hiding to wait. At the same time, one regiment of the 81st Division of the 15th Red Army continued to encircleThe defenders of Ganquan County were trapped in order to mobilize the 57th Army of the Kuomintang Army to advance eastward; one regiment was in the Yangquan Town area preparing to block the 117th Division of the Kuomintang Army on the east route. On that day, the 108th Division of the 57th Army of the Kuomintang Army stayed behind in Taibai Town, while the 109th, 106th, and 111th Divisions advanced along the Hulu River towards Zhiluo Town. Its leading force, the 109th Division, entered the Heishui Temple and Anjiachuan areas, and the military headquarters led the other two divisions to the east and west areas of Zhangjiawan. The Red Front Army decided to take advantage of the favorable opportunity when the 109th Division of the 57th Army was paralyzed and aggressive and strive to annihilate the division in the northwest area of ??Zhiluo Town.
On November 20, under the cover of aircraft, the enemys leading force, the 109th Division, attacked Zhiluo Town in three directions along the Hulu River Valley and the north and south mountains. The Red Army resisted step by step with a force, and gradually Lure the enemy into Zhiluo Town and enter the battlefield preset by the Red Army. On the night of November 21, the main force of the 1st Red Army deployed from its standby position towards the enemy, and suddenly launched an attack on the enemy at dawn. The 1st Army Corps attacked the Beishan Mountains of Zhiluo Town from the due north and northwest directions to cut off the enemys retreat; the 15th Army Group attacked the Nanshan Mountains and southeastern areas of Zhiluo Town from the southwest, due south and southeast directions to prevent the enemy from escaping eastward. In fierce fighting until 14:00, most of the enemys 109th Division was wiped out, and its remnants of more than 500 people retreated to the Tuzhai in the southeast of Zhiluo Town to resist stubbornly. At this time, the enemys reinforcements from the east and west were approaching Zhiluo Town. In order to continue to annihilate the enemy, the 1st Red Army used a small number of troops to surround the remnants of the enemys 109th Division and block the enemys 117th Division from the west, while the main force moved west to attack the enemys 106th and 111th Divisions from the east. After the two divisions were blocked by me, they withdrew westward along the Hulu River on the 23rd for fear of being wiped out. The Red 1st Front Army took advantage of the victory to pursue and annihilated 1 regiment of the enemys 106th Division in the Zhangjiawan area. The remnants of the enemys 109th Division, which was surrounded by our army in the southeastern Tuzhai of Zhiluo Town, had no hope of help. They broke out by separate routes at midnight on the 23rd, and were completely wiped out by our army on the morning of the 24th. Niu Yuanfeng, the commander of the enemys 109th Division, was killed. At this point, the battle of Zhiluo Town ended successfully.
Comment: This battle was the first battle for the Central Red Army to reach northern Shaanxi. It was crucial for establishing a foothold in northern Shaanxi and laid the foundation for the Party Central Committee’s task of placing the national revolutionary base camp in the northwest. During the battle, the Red Army annihilated one division and one regiment of the Kuomintang army, killing more than 1,000 officers and soldiers below the division commander Niu Yuanfeng, capturing more than 5,300 of them, and seizing more than 3,500 guns of various types.
Breaking through Wumeng Mountain: General He Long’s masterstroke. From February to March 1936, the 2nd Red Army Corps (Commander-in-Chief He Long, Political Commissar Guan Xiangying) and the 6th Red Army Corps (Commander-General Xiao Ke, Political Commissar Wang Zhen) continued to operate in Qianxi, Dading, and Bijie, Guizhou Province, in view of the unfavorable situation. It was decided to first move to the Anshun area in southern Guizhou to create a Soviet area. On February 27, the 2nd and 6th Red Army Corps withdrew from Bijie and marched westward into the Wumeng Mountains. In February in the mountainous areas of Guizhou, it is freezing cold. Many areas are deserted and it is almost impossible to buy food. The Red Army, which numbered more than 10,000 people, was wandering around in the mountains. The hardships were indescribable. At this time, the Kuomintang army followed up with 10 divisions and 1 brigade and flanked them from the south. Because the enemy has cut off the road to southwestern Guizhou, the Red 2nd and Red 6th Army cannot directlyFrom Bijie to Anshun, in order to get rid of the enemys encirclement, we headed west along Bijie and Weining Avenues to attract the Kuomintang troops to the west, tire them out and create misunderstandings, and then choose a favorable opportunity to suddenly turn southeast to Anshun. area. On March 4, when the 2nd and 6th Red Army Corps arrived in the Magu and Huishuitang areas, the pursuit of the three columns of the Kuomintang, Wan Yaohuang, Fan Songfu and Hao Mengling, also approached the Red Army rearguard. The Red Army immediately changed its route and advanced rapidly towards Kuixiang and Yiliang in Yunnan Province, creating the illusion of crossing the Jinsha River north to mobilize the pursuing and intercepting Kuomintang troops to move northwest and open the road to the south or east. As expected, the pursuit and suppression army judged that the Red Army would cross the Jinsha River north via Yiliang and Yanjin. The three columns of Fan, Wan, and Hao hurriedly turned to the northwest to pursue the pursuit. The Kuomintang Sichuan Army also sent the 123rd Division southward to Niujie on the bank of Baishui River on the Sichuan-Yunnan border. The area blocks the way of the Red 2nd and Red 6th Army. On the 8th, the Red 2nd and Red 6th Army suddenly returned south from Kuixiang, launched a counterattack against the Kuomintang Fan Column at the Eze River north of Weining, and wiped out two of its companies; then, they headed north and eastward via Wushazhai. To advance rapidly, it is planned to protrude from the south of Zhenxiong and be surrounded by the pursuit and suppression troops, and suddenly go south to the Anshun area. On the 12th, the Red 2nd and Red 6th Army annihilated more than two companies of the Kuomintang Wan Yaohuang column in the Dezhangba area southwest of Zhenxiong, and then rushed southwest. On the 14th, they entered the Caishentang area north of Hezhang. The Kuomintang army Besieged again with 5 columns. The 2nd and 6th Red Army Corps circled around in Wumeng Mountain for almost a month. The enemys encirclement is getting tighter and tighter, and the area where you can maneuver is getting smaller and smaller. The 2nd and 6th Red Army Corps fell into the most difficult and dangerous situation since they left the Hunan, Hubei, Sichuan and Guizhou base areas. He Long summoned cadres from each division and some regiments of the two legions and issued a secret breakout order. The troops are required to move very covertly. They are not allowed to light fires, make noises, wrap their horses' hooves in cloth, and are not allowed to make any sound. When passing through the enemys cracks in the early morning, even if they are discovered by a small group of enemies, they are not allowed to shoot, and they are not allowed to pick up and annihilate small groups. The advantage of the enemy is to get rid of the enemy very quickly. According to He Longs order, the 2nd and 6th Red Army Corps decisively chose to break out from between the two columns of the Kuomintang Guo Rudong and Fan Songfu, entered the Kuixiang area for the third time, and then quickly turned around and headed south, occupying southwest Guizhou on the 28th and 29th respectively. County, also Zi Kong area. So far, the Red 2nd and Red 6th Army Corps have been in Wumeng Mountain for nearly a month, completing the maneuver mission and breaking the Kuomintangs plan of heavy encirclement and annihilation.
Comment: This battle is a famous battle in the history of Chinese wars that used troops flexibly and broke through ingeniously. It also wrote the magic touch in He Longs military career. In terms of battle command, they all have different approaches but similar results. [1]
