Chapter 107: Thousand Miles Attack Chongqing Second

The Red Seventh Division led by Xunhuaizhou arrived at the periphery of Chongqing City on the night of the 20th. The Red Seventh Division traveled through the mountains in eastern Sichuan at a speed of nearly a hundred miles a day, and took half a month to reach the periphery of Chongqing.

After arriving outside Chongqing City, Xunhuaizhou did not hesitate at all.

Although there are nearly 40,000 troops stationed in Chongqing City with three Sichuan Army divisions, the Red Seventh Division led by itself has only more than 22,000 people.

However, Xun Huaizhou knew that the sudden arrival of his troops was beyond the imagination of the Chongqing defenders.

Now is a good time for a surprise attack, so Xunhuaizhou played his old-fashioned gun again, allowing all the commanders and soldiers of the Red Seventh Division to participate in the siege to immediately change into the mountain camouflage uniforms they wore and put on the Kuomintang Central Military uniforms they carried with them.

At the same time, Zhou Gangshan, who had secretly lurked into the city two days ago, received the order from Xunhuaizhou, raided and controlled important targets such as the Security Command and various divisions in Chongqing.

Before this, under the instructions of Xunhuaizhou, the Special Operations Brigade had arranged for team members to secretly monitor large and large airports in Chongqing areas such as Guangyangba Airport and Liangshan Airport Airport, as well as military key areas such as arsenals.

Before arranging the main force to occupy Chongqing, the Red Seventh Division also sent a deli team to these airports and arsenals and other important places, and with the cooperation of special forces, they implemented secret control of these facilities.

After the first team of special operations teams controlled the main targets in Chongqing.

Zhou Gangshan immediately led a squadron to attack Chongqing Dongchengmen and quickly controlled Chongqing Dongchengmen with thunder.

Immediately, Xun Huaizhou led more than 20,000 people from the Red Seventh Division, who had all been replaced with Kuomintang uniforms, drove into Chongqing City in a swagger.

As soon as the troops entered the city, they rushed towards the Sichuan army camps in Chongqing.

Most of the Sichuan Army soldiers became prisoners inexplicably in their sleep.

However, a small number of generals who were alarmed by the actions of the Red Seventh Division could not contact their superiors.

When these soldiers were confused and didn't understand what was going on, they were disarmed and captured by soldiers of the Red Seventh Division dressed as the Kuomintang army.

The entire Chongqing city was occupied very smoothly.

By the early morning of the 21st, the Red Seventh Division had already controlled the entire Chongqing city.

He had almost no resistance, and a very small number of dead and hard-working elements were shot dead on the spot.

The vast majority of Sichuan Army soldiers obediently became prisoners of the Red Seventh Division.

After controlling the entire city, the Red Seventh Division quickly changed its clothes and began to martial law in Chongqing.

After Liu Xiang's spy agency sent him the telegram, he was immediately taken away by the Red Seventh Division.

Now, Xunhuaizhou is passing through the narrow and long streets of Chongqing City and heading to the former Kuomintang municipal government.

Judging from the intercepted telegram, Liu Xiang should have known the fact that Chongqing was occupied by the Red Army.

I guess he would be panicked, but I think he would soon send a large army to encircle and suppress it.

According to Xun Huaizhou's estimate, it would take more than seven or eight days for Liu Xiang to transfer his army to Chongqing.

According to the marching speed of the Red Eleventh Division, they will arrive in Chongqing City in three days.

At present, the most urgent thing is to conduct preliminary reorganization of the captured Sichuan Army.

We will strive to screen more than 30,000 Sichuan soldiers captured this time within seven or eight days.

The reorganization of suitable soldiers into Red Army surrendered soldiers is expected to obtain more than 20,000 Red Army surrendered soldiers through reorganization.

At that time, we can use these surrendered soldiers and Qiao Xinming's Red Eleventh Division to adopt a campaign defense method in the surrounding areas of Chongqing.

By attacking the Sichuan Army, and adopting strategies to defeat each other, it is possible to defend Chongqing City for more than ten days.

After more than ten days, the 7th Red Division had joined forces with the Central Red Army and had responded to the Red Second and Sixth Legions. At that time.

The army headed north and rushed straight to Chongqing. It was estimated that only Liu Xiang could retreat to protect himself, and there was no idea of ​​fighting for Chongqing.

Martial law is still in place on the streets of Chongqing, and former mayor of Chongqing Pan Wenhua has become a prisoner of the Red Army. Therefore, the current market in Chongqing is very deserted, with only a few Red Army soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms patrolling.

Xunhuaizhou passed through the deserted long street and rushed to the Chongqing Municipal Government in a short while.

At this time, the captured Chongqing Mayor Pan Wenhua was waiting anxiously in the municipal government compound to find Huaizhou to meet him.

Pan Wenhua, born in 1888, is from Renshou, Sichuan.

In his early years, he entered the Sichuan Army Quicken School to study military affairs, and after graduation, he joined Tibet as a team official.

After the Xinhai Revolution in 1911, Tibetan chaos was frequent, and many mainland troops stationed in Tibet withdrew from Tibet.

Pan Wenhua also went to India and Burmese and returned to Sichuan, where he was the leader of the Sichuan Army Zhongtai Department.

In 1921, he joined Liu Xiang's army as the division commander. In July 1926, he was appointed as the Chongqing Supervisory Office and supervised by Liu Xiang. He began his construction of Chongqing's urban infrastructure and the establishment of a new type of cultural, health and education, and went through the transformation from the Supervisory Office to the Municipal Hall and then to the Municipal Government.

In June 1926, after Liu Xiang, the Sichuan warlord expelled Yuan Zuming of the Guizhou Army, he entered Chongqing from Chengdu as the dual identity of Sichuan aftermath supervision and Sichuan-Kang Border Affairs Supervision, and began his ten-year unified Sichuan political undertaking centered on Chongqing.

Pan Wenhua played a crucial role in the expansion and finalization of Chongqing's city during his tenure as mayor of Chongqing.

During the nine years of his tenure as the mayor of Chongqing, Pan Wenhua has also built a large number of infrastructure such as roads, docks, parks, and built street lights, water plants, power plants and telephone stations, laying a solid foundation for Chongqing's development and construction and further promoting the modernization of Chongqing's cities.

In January 1935, Pan Wenhua was ordered by Liu Xiang to serve as the commander-in-chief of the South Road, responsible for intercepting and preventing the Central Red Army from entering Chongqing area in eastern Sichuan.

Similarly, in January, in order to seize control of the Sichuan region, Chiang Kai-shek sent He Guoguang to lead the "National Government Military Commission Battalion Staff Team" to Chongqing on the grounds of pursuing the Red Army. From then on, the central forces entered Sichuan.

After the "Staff Team" entered Sichuan, it launched a large-scale sabotage campaign against powerful factions such as Liu Xiang, becoming the stronghold for Chiang Kai-shek to destroy the local powerful factions in Sichuan.

But what is different from the original history is that because of the rapid rise of the Third Red Army, Chiang Kai-shek had no energy and the remaining troops to enter Chongqing in the subsequent time.

Therefore, at this stage, Chongqing is still under the absolute control of the Sichuan Army, and He Guoguang can only use the hairless feather duster as an arrow, which is really not good.

Now He Guoguang and the spies who infiltrated Chongqing by the Kuomintang have almost been captured and wiped out by the Red Seventh Division in one go, and were all captured or annihilated. The Red Army controlled the Chongqing area and was ready.

When Xun Huaizhou walked into the municipal government reception room, Pan Wen was worried.

Looking up, he saw a young man in his twenties with a tall figure, a cold-looking and distinctive outline walked in. Pan Wenhua was also stunned, and then his face turned pale.

Isn’t this the legendary commander-in-chief of the Southern Anhui Red Army Xun Huaizhou?

Since mid-April, his photos have appeared in newspapers of all sizes and sizes.

Although the newspapers controlled by the Kuomintang were portrayed as a demon, his image was also deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Of course, different people only feel differently.

In the minds of the Kuomintang officers, Xun Huaizhou was regarded as a real hell demon.

The unpredictable strategic deployment, superb command, and treacherous and terrifying combat style are simply the most terrifying nightmare in the hearts of all the generals who are fighting against them.

Similarly, Xun Huaizhou's image was deeply imprinted in Pan Wenhua's mind. Now this person suddenly appeared in front of him, why isn't he shocked?

Seeing Pan Wenhuai's performance like this, Xun Huaizhou felt silent. He didn't know that he had become a veritable demon in the hearts of the Kuomintang generals.

Xun Huaizhou, who finally returned to the people's camp in later generations, and later served as the Standing Committee of the Southwest Military and Political Committee, still has a very good impression of Pan Culture.

Looking at this middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and looking gentle, Xun Huaizhou also felt a little emotional.

As I enter this era longer and longer, my understanding of this era is getting deeper and deeper. The characters in the original history books are now full of living lives, and the fate of these people will undergo earth-shaking changes due to their arrival.

Thinking of this, Xun Huaizhou felt the heavy burden on his shoulders and the huge pressure in his heart.

But you must not add even greater disaster to the motherland that is full of disasters because of your own arrival.

Therefore, every step Xunhuaizhou now takes is very cautious, and he always feels like walking on thin ice.

I think the higher the level, the heavier the responsibility, and the more vigilant and awe in my heart.

Although Xun Huaizhou was a little distracted, there was nothing unusual on his face.

He smiled at Pan Wenhua and stretched out his hand, and said cheerfully: "Mayor Pan, I have been looking back for a long time."

"I just walked along the streets of Chongqing and felt deeply the good intentions of Mayor Pan in the past nine years of management of Chongqing."

"Chongqing has developed well with Mayor Pan."

Xun Huaizhou's opening remark was really surprising to Pan Wenhuai, but it made his originally panic calm down a lot.

Holding Xun Huaizhou stretched out? He grew up and said excitedly: "General Xun praised him for his mistakes."

"I just did something that should be done and could see the general's eyes."

"I am really flattered by General Xun's praise."

Xun Huaizhou was also a little impressed when he saw that Pan Wenhua could calm down his emotions in such a short time.

So, he took Pan Wen's hand and invited him to a guest. After a little greeting, he began to discuss with Pan Wen about management and development issues in Chongqing.

The two of them chatted for more than two hours.

As the topics of the two became more and more profound, Pan Wenhuai's admiration for Xun Huaizhou became more and more powerful.

He could never imagine that this young man, who was in his twenties, was so clear about the historical evolution and reality of Chongqing.

What is even more rare is that Xunhuaizhou proposed a magnificent and realistic future development plan plan for Sichuan and Chongqing, which made Pan Wen fascinated.

If the Sichuan-Chongqing region can really achieve such a development plan, then even if Pan Culture dies immediately, it will be gratifying.

After chatting with Xun Huaizhou for more than two hours, Pan Wenhuai happily agreed to Xun Huaizhou to invite him to serve as acting mayor of the Chongqing Anti-Japanese United Government, and at the same time expressed that he would do his best to cooperate with the Communist Party to do a good job in all aspects of the Chongqing area.
