The horizontal iron cables of Dadu Bridge are cold.
The main forces of the Chinese Revolutionary Army and the Red Front Army arrived at the Dadu River on the night of the 29th.
The large army strode across the Dadu River from the Luding Bridge.
Xiaojiang's battle of Dadu River, in which the south was attacked and the north was blocked, and his dream of making the Red Army "the second in Shidakai" was completely declared bankrupt before the troops could be mobilized.
After learning that the Red Army had crossed the Dadu River, Xiaojiang's face turned green with anger.
But the fact has happened, and yelling and swearing will not help. We can only make up for it.
He groped for the map, carefully examined the terrain, and tried to establish a blockade again, but unfortunately, it was too late.
At this time, no matter what he did, it was impossible to destroy the Red Army.
...
After crossing Luding Bridge, the battle situation became slightly calmer.
Yang Dingguo began to dress up his troops again.
Needless to say, the Czech light machine gun and MP40 submachine gun are must-haves.
However, Yang Dingguo replaced the Mosin-Nagant rifle that was uniformly equipped by the entire regiment with the Garand rifle of Chou Country, which is also commonly known as the Big Eight in China.
Pulling the bolt once can fire eight bullets continuously, which greatly enhances the continuity of firepower.
At the same time, it also increases the consumption of ammunition, but this consumption is not a problem for Yang Dingguo.
Killing a person is worth 200 bullets, killing an official is worth even more bullets.
No matter what, at least 200 bullets can kill an enemy.
Yang Dingguo can't guarantee it in other troops, but the Red Army soldiers definitely can. They are afraid of poverty. Every time they fight, even if they have enough ammunition, they will try to ensure that every bullet kills an enemy.
The soldiers of the sniper company are still equipped with Mosin-Nagant rifles. After all, the accuracy of the Big Eight is still a little worse than the Mosin-Nagant. In addition to the Mosin-Nagant, the soldiers of the sniper company are also equipped with one. Refute the gun to improve the combat effectiveness in close combat.
...
After crossing the Dadu River, the Red Army continued northward.
On the 7th, Tianquan was captured, and on the 8th, the Jiangjun's Lushan and Baoxing defense lines were broken through.
The Jiang army they faced along the way was like paper, being torn apart by the Red Army. Yang Dingguo's troops showed off their skills in battle after battle, beating the Jiang army and running away.
In order to join the Fourth Front Army of the Red Army, two roads were placed in front of the leaders of the Central Revolution, one was a shortcut and the other was a dangerous situation.
The shortcut is to take Lushan and Qionglai, and go north along the edge of the Western Sichuan Plain.
The person guarding the shortcut at this time is an old classmate of a leader of the Chinese Revolutionary Army - Yang Tie. Is it possible that he will let our army pass out of consideration for his classmates?
It is basically impossible. After all, Yang Tie relies on Xiaojiang's power to compete with Liu Xiang and Liu Wenhui. If he still wants to gain a foothold in Sichuan Province in the future, he cannot go against Xiaojiang's wishes.
After all, how can the friendship of classmates be more important than one's own future?
Therefore, Yang Tie will never let the Red Army pass. Even if he cannot defeat them, he will try his best to stop them.
In order not to be held back by the enemy, the enemy following behind will catch up.
The Red Army can only take another dangerous path now.
That is, crossing Jiajin Mountain.
Jiajin Mountain is more than 4,900 meters above sea level, with thin air and snow all year round.
There is even a local folk song, "Jiajin Mountain, Ciajin Mountain, birds can't fly, and mortals can't climb it. If you want to cross Jiajin Mountain, you have to be a god to come to the world!"
This is a true portrayal of the harsh environment in Jiajin Mountain.
When you reach Jiajin Mountain, you can reach out and touch the sky.
Jiajin Mountain is the western branch of the Qionglai Mountain System. It is a snow-capped mountain located at the junction of Baoxing County, Ya'an City, Sichuan Province and Xiaojin County, Aba Prefecture. It was also the first snow-capped mountain climbed by the Red Army during the Long March.
Nature is mysterious and unpredictable, and the snow-capped mountains are an even more dangerous environment, with countless dangers hidden within them.
However, in order to break Xiaojiang's pursuit, the leaders of Zhongge thought over and over again and decided to overcome the difficulties and climb over Jiajin Mountain.
...
Climbing snowy mountains and crossing grasslands were the most difficult situations in the history of the Long March. How could Yang Dingguo not remember them.
Therefore, as early as after breaking through the Lushan and Baoxing defense lines, Yang Dingguo began to purchase a large amount of supplies in the system mall.
The first thing to bear the brunt was cotton-padded clothes. In order to ensure that everyone had one, he directly purchased 30,000 sets.
Next is food, rice, flour, oil, salt...
"I have already traveled through time. When I cross the snow-capped mountains and climb the grassland next time, every time a person dies in the Red Army, it will be a slap in the face of my own time-traveling person."
After handing over all the supplies to Zhongge, Yang Dingguo also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although there are fewer heroic deeds that can be sung and cried, it is a beautiful thing that all the Red Army soldiers survived.
Yang Dingguo would rather not have those admirable heroic deeds in the textbooks of future generations, but also want these brave and tenacious red warriors to survive until the New Rabbit is established and the New Rabbit is revived.
Let them see the prosperous age that they have fought for with their blood and lives.
...
While the First Red Army was advancing, the Fourth Red Army was branching off to advance westward. The vanguard troops captured Maogong (today's Xiaojin), and the first troops moved out of Dawei.
On the 12th, the vanguard of the First Red Army and the first unit of the Fourth Red Army met in Dawei.
On the 18th, the two main forces of the Red Army successfully joined forces, creating a new situation and creating favorable conditions for crushing the Jiang army's attack.
The next crossing of the grassland, with Yang Dingguo providing supplies, Hongjin also passed smoothly.
You just need to be on guard against the Jiangjun planes flying through the sky from time to time.
The Jiangjun troops did not dare to go deep into the dangerous grassland, and they only dared to send planes to bomb.
...
The first Red Front Army set out from Ruijin and other places in Gan Province on October 10, 1934, and arrived at Wuqi Town (now Wuqi County) in Shaanxi Province on October 19, 1935, covering a distance of 25,000 miles;
The second branch was the 25th Red Army (later incorporated into the First Red Army). It set off from Hejiachong, Luoshan, Henan Province on November 16, 1934, and arrived at Yongping Town, Yanchuan, Shaanxi Province on September 15, 1935. Joined forces with the Shaanxi-Gansu Red Army and formed the 15th Red Army. It traveled nearly ten thousand miles and was the first Red Army to arrive in northern Shaanxi.
The third branch, the fourth branch...
The Red Army is not afraid of the difficulties of the expedition, and it can only wait for thousands of rivers and mountains.
The five ridges are meandering and the waves are flowing, and the fog is majestic and the mud balls are walking.
The golden sand and water are warm against the clouds and the cliffs are warm, while the iron cables across the Dadu Bridge are cold.
I am even more happy that there is thousands of miles of snow in Minshan Mountain, and the three armies are all happy after the passing.
Because of Yang Dingguo's good performance on the Long March, the Red 34th Division was restored to its original form and became independent of the armies. It was directly led by the commander-in-chief, and Yang Dingguo also became the division commander.
Don't think that because he is young, he can't be a division commander, let alone a 20-year-old division commander. The Red Army even has 20-year-old army commanders, so don't make a fuss.
...
pS: Most of the following things will be skipped. Let’s fast forward directly to the Anti-Japanese War.
