I really came here to fight against Japan

The man then asked, "What if the First Army follows the Red Army and enters Gansu?"

Song Wenwan laughed and said, "You have already cut off the Red Army's retreat, so the Red Army will be furious with you.

If the First Army follows too closely and is attacked by the Red Army's cavalry, who can they turn to for justice?"

The man was stunned: "How could the Red Army have any cavalry... Hahahaha, thank you Commander Song for your advice..."

Song Wenwan looked at the back of the man from the First Cavalry Division of the Lao Ma family who was quickly moving away.

He sneered to himself, "What are you talking about? You're bragging! If you can withstand this wave of sabers, then go ahead!"

In October, the Northwest was already filled with flying sand.

The soldiers of the Fourth Red Army and the Second Red Army all marched with their eyes squinted in order to prevent sand from getting into their eyes.

After going through a lot of hardships, they finally broke through the defense line of the National Army's First Army.

Unexpectedly, just after entering Gansu, they were intercepted by the Ma family army.

The superiors are preparing to organize a battle to severely punish this group of horse bandits.

Unexpectedly, just when he clenched his fists, this wave of Ma family cavalry suddenly disappeared.

At first I thought they had some new conspiracy to deal with the Red Army.

Unexpectedly, we found out later that they had cleared the way for the Red Army to go to Shaanxi.

As long as the Red Army does not move towards Lanzhou, or towards more prosperous cities.

They all just stayed far away, observing from both sides of the Red Army.

No contact and no fighting. Those who know them may think that they are trying to conserve their strength. Those who don’t know may think that they have changed their careers to become bodyguards.

This scene made the Red Army soldiers so angry that their teeth itched.

This group of Ma family soldiers rely on the horses they have, and you can neither beat them nor catch up with them.

As the vanguard regiment of the entire army, the regiment commander Li Yunlong had never suffered such humiliation before.

His superiors were also afraid that he would make the same mistake as "borrowing grain" again, so this time they finally sent him to the front.

As a result, he was harassed by a group of cavalry from the northwest.

He doesn't care whether the horse is a cavalryman or not, what he cares about is the horse...'s meat!

He also wanted to find a place to set up an ambush and severely strike a blow to the arrogance of the Ma family army.

It's a pity that the terrain here is flat, so he can't use his strength.

A few days later, Captain Ding Wei, who was behind him, came to find him on the orders of the headquarters.

Ding Wei asked him for a steamed bun, sat with him, and ate lunch with grunts.

Ding Wei put the last crumbs of the steamed bread into his mouth.

He then said to Li Yunlong: "Old Li, you regret becoming the leader of this vanguard regiment now, don't you?"

Li Yunlong was stunned: "What should I regret? It's better than being left behind by the whole army."

Ding Wei smiled and said, "Have you heard? The last group to come in this time is Cheng Xiazi's group.

They were in the back, fighting with the Nationalist First Army every three days and a big fight every ten days, but they were having a great time. "

Li Yunlong slapped his thigh, feeling really regretful. He watched others eating meat while he couldn't even have a sip of soup. He felt so lost.

Ding Wei said, "Come on, stop grinning like that.

It’s all because of the headquarters. When you left Tibet, you had a way to fight the cavalry.

That's why I sent you to lead the way and deal with the cavalry of the Ma family army.

Who could have thought that this ferocious Ma family army would suddenly become so cowardly.

Could it be that he was afraid of your reputation, Old Li, and hid away by himself? "

"Hahahaha..." Ding Wei's words made Lao Li happy again.

He kept bragging to Ding Wei about his past "great achievements".

Ding Wei stopped Li Yunlong when he saw that he had almost finished speaking and was about to enter the second round.

"Old Li, the tongue that Old Cheng caught in the back has an explanation. If we go forward, we should meet Song Wenwan from Southwest Gansu."

Li Yunlong asked: "Why? Does this have any meaning for Song Wenwan?"

Ding Wei said: "This Song Wenwan has been a powerful figure in this area since his great grandfather's generation.

It is said that his great-grandfather made his fortune in his early years by suppressing the Nian Army and was an executioner who suppressed peasant uprisings.

His grandfather joined Yuan Shikai's new army in Xiaozhan, Tianjin, and helped suppress the Boxer Rebellion.

(Song Wenwan felt so miserable. If he had known that their Song family had such a historical composition, he would never have traveled through time and space to become Song Wenwan!)

His father had been frail and sickly since childhood and never worked in the Beiyang government.

I returned to my hometown in Gansu to do business, and later I had this Song Wenwan. "

"I didn't expect that after Song Wenwan grew up, he would become a bad person and start to oppose the people again.

I heard that at the beginning of this year, he participated in the training for reactionary officers organized by the Military Affairs Department in Jiujiang.

After the training, he volunteered to go to the Soviet area in Jiangxi.

Participated in the operation to encircle and suppress the Red Army guerrillas there.

It is said that he wiped out several secret guerrilla camps, and no Red Army soldiers there survived.

He also brought many common people from the Jiangxi Soviet Area back to Gansu to work for him like slaves.

I heard that he just returned to Gansu last month. The Military Affairs Department also gave him a position as the Western Gansu Pacification Commissioner.

After hearing this, Li Yunlong said angrily: "Ding Wei, go back and tell your superiors to give me three days.

I, Li Yunlong, will not be a human being if I don't twist off Song Wenwan's head."

Ding Wei stopped him and said, "Li Yunlong, are you crazy? Commanding the troops to leave without the approval of the superiors will be regarded as desertion."

After hearing what Ding Wei said, Li Yunlong looked up and saw his new political commissar who was staring at him from a distance. Only then did he calm down.

Ding Wei said: "In one more day, we will enter the sphere of influence of Song Wennuan in southwestern Gansu.

Because Song Wenwan was extremely reactionary and hated the Red Army and the working people very much.

This time, the headquarters asks you to be very careful and not to fall into his trap."

Li Yunlong curled his lips and said with disdain: "He is a second-generation rich man, a fourth-generation bandit, and he still wants to fight me. I think he is still a little naive!"

While they were talking, a soldier about fifteen or sixteen years old ran over in a hurry and reported the situation to Li Yunlong.

"Captain, something big has happened. Go check it out. It looks like we are surrounded."

Li Yunlong said angrily: "Zhu Zi, don't talk nonsense to me!

What do you mean by "it seems like we are surrounded by the enemy"? How do you serve as a sentry?"

Zhuzi was not good at talking and was afraid that he would not be able to learn, so he simply grabbed Li Yunlong and ran up the slope.

Li Yunlong shouted in a low voice as he ran: "There is an enemy, everyone be on alert!"

A few seconds later, they reached the top of the slope, followed by the political commissar, and together they looked around with binoculars.

Seeing this, even Li Yunlong, who was braver than the sky, looked unhappy.

This really feels like being surrounded!

Just five hundred meters on either side of the exit at the bottom of the hill, four thousand people were sitting on the ground.

They were sitting upright, so it was not difficult to count the number of people.

Ding Wei said: "Okay, Lao Li, you have a good reputation.

I didn’t expect that I would be targeted by Song Wenwan as soon as I arrived in Gansu.”

"Song Wenwan?" Li Yunlong raised the telescope and looked at the flag they were holding.

Sure enough, it was written: Xigan First Cavalry Detachment and Xigan Second Cavalry Detachment.
