    The reorganized Eighteenth Army was initially completed and was assembled on the Pinghan-Hankou Railway with Zhumadian as the center. The task given to Hu Congjun by Chief Bai of Central China was to reorganize the Eighteenth Army to serve as road protection while attacking the people who had already transferred from the Dabie Mountains at this time.  Liu Bocheng's troops went out to rest along the Huaihe River.

    After arriving in the Dabie Mountains, the Shanxi-Hebei-Luyu Field Army led by Liu Bocheng and Deng Xiaoping failed to gain a foothold as Mao Zedong had imagined. Under the attack of the Guangxi troops and the reorganized 11th Division and other Central Army forces, they could only evade the attack.  If we fight for completeness, we will not be able to assemble effectively, let alone fight a few more victorious battles.  In desperation, after New Year's Day, Liu Bocheng called the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and said in the message: "Under the pressure of several powerful enemy divisions, Liu and Deng's army cannot concentrate on fighting!" Therefore, he suggested  : "Our field army should adopt a broad maneuver, either out of Huaibei, or out of Han River, Tongbai, which will be more beneficial"

    After many discussions, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China finally agreed to Liu Bocheng's suggestion and allowed Liu and Deng's army to move out of the Dabie Mountains to fight.

    After discussing with Deng Xiaoping, Liu Bocheng decided to divide his troops in Lishan County and Huangpi County in Hubei Province: the second, third, and sixth columns were led by Deng Xiaoping and insisted on fighting in the Dabie Mountains; while the tenth and twelfth columns crossed the Pinghan Road to the west,  The Tongbai and Jianghan base areas were opened; Liu Bocheng personally led the rear headquarters and the first column to cross the Huaihe River north and enter the Huaixi area for rest.

    When the Tenth Column fought fiercely in Liulin, Liu Bocheng had already led the command and moved northward. During the march, this unit encountered the reorganized 18th Brigade of the 11th Division near Beixiangdian in Guangshan County, but at that time  Brigadier Qin did not pay attention, but, like Zhang Xian, put all his combat thoughts on Liulin on the Ping-Han Railway to the west.  After a day of fierce fighting, although the People's Liberation Army paid a heavy price, Liu Bocheng and most of the command finally escaped and successfully reached the north bank of the Huaihe River.  Such an opportunity that should have been a great achievement for the reorganized 11th Division was missed.

    In order to cope with the transfer of Liu and Deng's armies, the Chen Su Corps to the east of the Ping-Han Railway and the Chen Xie Corps to the west launched a raid on the Ping-Han Line, disrupting the deployment of the national army.  In desperation, Commander Bai had no choice but to transfer the reorganized 11th Division to the north to protect the road.

    At this time, the task of protecting the road has come to an end, and the reorganized 11th Division also has a reorganized third division, a brother force.  Intelligence shows that at this time, Liu Bocheng's headquarters was operating in the Henan and Anhui border areas of Xincai, Xixian and Gushi east of Zhumadian, and there were large Communist Party troops resting in that area.  So the Wuhan Command Post ordered the 11th Reorganized Division, together with the 10th Reorganized Division in the direction of Xinyang, to march eastward from Pinghan Road in order to disrupt Liu Bocheng's troops' rest and reorganization.  At the same time, the task of protecting the road was handed over to the newly established third division.

    Although it had just been settled for a few days, military conditions were the order, and the reorganized 11th Division had to go out again. As usual, Zhang Xian's 11th Brigade became the vanguard of the reorganized division.

    After moving out of the Dabie Mountains, Wang Yong felt that the world was much wider. He no longer had to stay awake all day long in that small mountainous area to guard against the pursuit and struggle of the Kuomintang troops.  At this time, he was the commander of the first column of the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan Field Army. Although he had four brigades under his command, he was far less powerful than when he was the commander of the seventh column in southwestern Shandong.  Before advancing into the Dabie Mountains, the first column and the seventh column of the Shanxi-Hebei-Luyu Field Army were merged. After the merger, they had four brigades, the 1st, 2nd, 19th and 20th brigades, as well as the cavalry regiment and the directly affiliated detachment. He served as  The commander of the newly formed first column.  However, as Liu and Deng's armies entered the Dabie Mountains, the difficulties were far greater than they imagined. The combat effectiveness of the first column also dropped sharply, from more than 40,000 people to more than 10,000 people, with losses of more than three points.  There are more than two.

    When they came out of the mountainous area, the 19th Brigade stayed in the Dabie Mountains and was not brought out. Wang Yong commanded the other three brigades of the First Column to attack in various places near the Pinghan-Han Railway and won several victorious battles.  , got the long-lost supplies.  All the soldiers also changed their appearance, finally put on new cotton-padded clothes and filled their bellies.  But the Kuomintang's 9th Reorganized Division, 10th Reorganized Division and 11th Reorganized Division that followed them were also transferred from the Dabie Mountains, and he had to deal with it carefully again.

    Among the four brigade commanders under Wang Yong, he still admires Qian Xiongfeng, the brigade commander of the 20th Brigade.  Qian Xiongfeng stood out during the Battle of Zhang Fengji a year ago. He was a regiment leader at the time, but this regiment leader's bravery, ability to fight, and unafraid of death left a very deep impression on him.

    At that time, there was another regiment commander who broke into Zhang Fengji, Huang Xinyuan, who was also the commander of the fourth regiment of the second brigade of the first column at this time.  After the battle at Zhang Fengji, Wang Yong had an opinion about Captain Huang, and transferred him from the seventh column for some reason.?At the same time, he said: "Old Huang, I have wanted to come see you for a long time, but I just haven't been able to get away during this time!"

    "Thank you very much for your concern, Commander!" Huang Xinyuan said sincerely: "I am so injured that I really don't think you are still thinking about me!"

    "Hey, what are you talking about!" Wang Yong said seriously: "If I don't care about you wounded people, then I will stop being a commander!"

    Huang Xinyuan was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but laugh.  Indeed, as a commander of a unit, he must not only have the ability to strategize, but also have compassion for the soldiers, especially the wounded, who must take extra care.

    In fact, in Wang Yong's heart, there is another thing that makes him feel guilty throughout his life, that is, in the process of advancing into the Dabie Mountains, he had just broken through the enemy's Ruhe defense line. Since the pursuers behind him were about to arrive, he had to make a decision at that time.  He made a decision against his will, which was to abandon the seriously wounded and dump the comrades who had followed him through life and death on the bank of the Ru River, saying that he wanted them to find a place to recuperate and return to their hometown. In fact, he knew very well that in that environment,  There was no way anyone could survive with serious injuries.  This incident also became an eternal pain in his heart.

    "How is your injury getting better?" Wang Yong asked with concern.

    Huang Xinyuan said: "It's nothing serious. I think I can return to the team after getting out of bed in a few days!"

    "Is there nothing serious?" Qian Xiongfeng shouted and told Wang Yong: "I asked the doctor just now. The doctor said that he will need to rest for at least three months from this injury. His intestines were already leaking out at that time!"

    "I'm really fine!" Huang Xinyuan shouted stubbornly!

    Wang Yong nodded, comforted him, and said: "Old Huang, let's wait until you recover to return to the team. Your task now is to recover from your injuries. Only by recovering from your injuries quickly can you return to the team!"

    "Yes!" Huang Xinyuan had to reply.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
