Soon everyone was notified and rushed to the headquarters, and Li Qiufan informed everyone of the news.
Everyone was a little confused after hearing this. They didn't understand why they were going to the northwest not long after arriving in the northeast.
"Each unit will go back and take all their belongings with them, and be ready to leave for the northwest at any time."
Li Qiufan didn't explain too much. He just informed everyone and asked everyone to go back and prepare to set off.
Then Li Qiufan asked the telegraph operator to send a telegram to the coalition headquarters and confirm the mobilization order with the other party.
"Old Zhao, inform all the troops to set off in one day!"
After finishing everything, Li Qiufan decided to leave for the northwest one day later, and asked Zhao Gang to inform the troops of the news.
Li Qiufan was very excited about meeting his boss again soon and wished he could grow wings and fly over.
One day later, the entire column was divided into three parts by Li Qiufan and set off because it was too conspicuous for the entire column to move together.
The 1st and 3rd Divisions are at the front, the 2nd and 5th Divisions are at the back, and in the middle are the Heavy Artillery Division, the 4th Division and the garrison division.
Just as Li Qiufan was on his way to the northwest, the boss on the other side received an order to formally form the Northwest Field Corps.
When Li Qiufan arrived in Yan'an with his troops, the boss was commanding the troops to start a battle with the National Army's reorganized 29th Army.
After learning that Li Qiufan had arrived in Yan'an, the boss immediately sent him a telegram, asking him to rush to Yongping immediately to encircle the reorganized 29th Army.
After receiving the order, Li Qiufan immediately ordered the troops to march in the direction of Yongping. This first battle had to be fought beautifully.
At this time, the reorganized 29th Army was on the way to escape, and finally broke away from the pursuit of the Northwest Field Corps after paying hundreds of lives.
But what made them desperate was that just when they were about to escape, they suddenly bumped into Li Qiufan who was coming.
As the vanguard, the First Division and the Third Division immediately launched a blockade against the reorganized 29th Army, and directly stopped the reorganized 29th Army.
The two sides were fighting for a while and the commander of the 29th Army was so anxious that he was almost fuming. If he was delayed, he would have to answer today.
Although the reorganized 29th Army has more than 24,000 troops, this number of people is simply not enough. The first and third divisions combined have about 30,000 people.
And after the equipment change in the Northeast, the First Division was still an all-American armorer, and both the First Division and the Third Division were equipped with an independent artillery regiment, which directly suppressed the reorganized 29th Army in terms of firepower.
On Li Qiufan's side, after receiving the telegram that the First Division and the Third Division had successfully intercepted, he immediately asked the heavy artillery division to start building artillery positions.
In addition, the Fourth Division and the garrison division were arranged to provide support to prevent the reorganization of the 29th Army to break through.
The Second Division and the Fifth Division that followed behind took over the place of the Garrison Division and the Fourth Division, and served as the escort for the Heavy Artillery Division.
The situation that was still inextricable turned into a one-sided situation after the Fourth Division and the garrison division arrived.
The reorganized 29th Army, which was still undergoing a breakout, immediately began to huddle up and defend.
It's not that they don't want to break out, but that they are really determined but unable to do so in the face of about 60,000 troops.
Just when the Fourth Division and the Garrison Division rushed to the battlefield, the heavy artillery division was finished. Under Li Qiufan's order, it immediately began to bombard the reorganized 29th Army.
This shelling was simply adding insult to injury for the reorganization of the 29th Army, and became the straw that broke the camel's back.
By the time the pursuit force arranged by the boss arrived, the battle here was over.
The commander of the reorganized 29th Army committed suicide. Less than one-half of the surviving soldiers chose to abandon their guns and surrender.
When the troops responsible for the pursuit saw this situation, they immediately sent a telegram to the boss.
After getting the news, the boss was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily, and then rushed to the battlefield with his people.
After seeing the boss arriving, Li Qiufan rushed up to him and saluted the boss with red eyes.
"Good boy, you are here to give me a gift!"
The boss was a little excited when he saw Li Qiufan and punched him in the chest.
"Boss, are you okay?"
Li Qiufan felt the long-lost strength and asked the boss with a trembling voice.
"Haha, I'm very good. I'll be even better when you come!"
The boss smiled and nodded to Li Qiufan, then reached out and patted his shoulder.
"How many soldiers did you bring to me this time? You managed to defeat an army so quickly. It seems like you are doing well!"
The boss looked at the soldiers of the Independent First Column and asked Li Qiufan. The boss did not expect that Li Qiufan could reorganize the 29th Army so quickly.
"Reporting to the boss, the Independent First Column has a total of five combat infantry divisions, including two All-American Armored Divisions,"
"There is also a garrison division and a heavy artillery division, totaling about 120,000 people."
This time Li Qiufan didn't hide it, he was like a child who went out to work hard and told his elders about his achievements when he returned home.
"Well done! You really gave me a surprise! Not only did the army expand to 120,000 people, but there are also two All-American mechanics!"
The boss was shocked when he heard Li Qiufan's words. He didn't expect that his army had developed to this point, and there were two All-American mechanics.
You must know that the total strength of the Northwest Field Corps at this time is less than 50,000, and Li Qiufan's troops are more than twice the size of the entire field army.
"Boss, this is the meeting gift I brought you. In return, will you ask Lao Wang to cook braised pork for me?"
Li Qiufan pointed to the open space aside and said to the boss. The boss looked in the direction of Li Qiufan's finger and found that the open space was filled with weapons and equipment.
These weapons and equipment were captured and reorganized into the 29th Army. Li Qiufan decided to give them all to the boss as a meeting gift. After all, the Northwest Field Corps had just begun to develop, and these things were indispensable.
"Haha, then I have to thank you brat. I can still afford a meal of braised pork!"
The boss smiled and nodded to Li Qiufan. He was very pleased with Li Qiufan as the boss and accepted the braised pork as a return gift.
The two didn't talk much. After all, they didn't know whether the northwest king would send troops to support them.
The goal this time has been achieved, and the boss immediately ordered to start evacuating with the captured and prisoners. After all, the Northwest King still has some foundation.
Li Qiufan also ordered the troops to follow them. The boss did not arrange a station for him when they first arrived, so he could only follow them to the headquarters first.
