Chapter 7 Chapter 6 Connecting Shaanxi-Gansu and Northern Shaanxi Base Areas

From the winter of 1934 to the spring of 1935, Chiang Kai-shek mobilized 4 divisions and 1 brigade with a total of 23 regiments of more than 40,000 troops, focusing on northern Shaanxi to "encircle and suppress" the revolutionary base areas on the Shaanxi-Gansu border and northern Shaanxi.In response to the enemy's "encirclement and suppression" plan, the Shaanxi-Gansu border and northern Shaanxi party and army implemented unified leadership and command, smashing the enemy's "encirclement and suppression" plan, and the Shaanxi-Gansu border and northern Shaanxi base areas became one.

In the summer of 1934, Ma Mingfang went to Tianjin to report to the Northern Bureau of the unified leadership of Shaanxi, Gansu and Northern Shaanxi, which was agreed by the Northern Bureau.In winter, in order to unify the leadership of the two armed forces in the Shaanxi-Gansu and Northern Shaanxi base areas and concentrate their forces to smash the enemy's "encirclement and suppression", the representative of the Central Committee in the north sent Huang Han as an inspector to northern Shaanxi.According to the instructions of the representatives from the north and Xie Zichang's serious injury, he sent a letter to Nanliang to transfer Comrade Liu Zhidan back to northern Shaanxi to lead the work of the two armies.

After the establishment of the Soviet government in the Shaanxi-Gansu Border Region, in order to consolidate and expand the base areas, Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang, in accordance with the spirit of the resolutions of the Congress, commanded the army to continue to resolutely attack the reactionary forces invading the border regions, march towards the strongholds occupied by the enemy in North Gyeongsang, consolidate and expand soviet area.The enemies in Gyeongbuk took advantage of the early establishment of the Soviet government in our base area, constantly disturbing the Soviet area, oppressing the people, and the people hated it extremely.Liu and Gao commanded troops to ambush two Kuomintang regiments in Wubaochuan and Loufangping twice in mid-November. After the birth of the Soviet, they won the first battle and seized a large number of weapons, horses and supplies.In the last ten days, Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang decided to attack Quzi Town, Huanxian County, and ordered the cavalry regiment and Qingbei guerrillas to meet at Maoyechuan.Gao Gang went to convey the order of the Military Commission and commanded the two troops to fight.Gao Gang went to Maoyechuan to convene the cavalry commander Zhao Guoqing, political commissar Gao Jinchun, Gyeongbuk guerrilla leader Zhang Zixiao, political commissar Wang Baoshan and others to attend a meeting to study the combat deployment and decided to use the method of rushing to win by surprise and wipe out all in one fell swoop.According to the combat plan, the cavalry regiment first dispatched a small group of capable troops to advance rapidly. The main force of the cavalry regiment was in the middle, and the Gyeongbuk guerrilla guards responded.According to Gao Gang's instructions, the first small group of cavalry approached the city, left the horses, changed into plain clothes, and disguised themselves as small traders who went to the morning market to sneak into the city.The cavalry regiment decided to send a company of platoon leader Cai to bring more than 20 young men into the city at dawn as planned.Commander Zhao and Political Commissar Gao led the main force to ambush outside the city.The stupid enemy was unsuspecting. The militiamen just got up from the bed. When the enemy cavalry company was on the drill, the gunshots rang out in the city, and our cavalry regiment rushed into the city at high speed. The garrison attacked violently.In an instant, people in the morning market in the city were in chaos.Seeing the sudden appearance of the Red Army, the enemy threw away their helmets and armours, and ran about in the streets, unable to resist.Our army pursued in all directions, and the Gyeongbuk guerrillas captured the enemies running around. After an hour of fighting, they wiped out nearly 1,000 people including militia groups in 6 districts, 1 cavalry company, and the county brigade, and captured more than 500 people. The rest fled or were captured. Killed and seized more than 300 guns, more than a hundred horses and other supplies.After the battle, the army held a mass meeting and executed the leader of the militia, Li Hengtai, the leader of the militia, Jing Chongfu, and the director of the Salt Bureau.In this battle, the Gyeongbuk guerrillas were equipped, and the spears were replaced with steel guns.

Soon after the liberation of Huan County, it received a letter of instruction from Huang Han, the special commissioner of the northern representative, and a letter from Ma Mingfang, the leader of the Northern Shaanxi Special Committee, conveying the instructions of the northern representative.Liu Zhidan, Gao Gang and others held a party, government and military leadership meeting overnight to study and discuss the military work on the Shaanxi-Gansu border. It was determined that Liu Zhidan would go first, and Gao Gang, Zhang Xiushan, Liu Jingfan and others would be responsible for the military work on the Shaanxi-Gansu border.After Liu Zhidan arranged the work on the Shaanxi-Gansu border, he traveled to various places. In December, he was escorted by the Red Second Regiment and Ansai County guerrillas to reluctantly leave Nanliang, and went to Anding County via Ansai.Liu Zhidan stayed in Anding for two days and talked with Ma Mingfang and others about the work in northern Shaanxi, and then they went to Dengzhan Bay to visit Xie Zichang.Xie Zichang was wounded in the Hekou battle in August last year.When Zichang saw Liu Zhidan, he talked about the past in tears, such as Sanjiayuan handing over his gun, and what happened at the Yanjiawazi meeting "was wrong".Zhidan said: "Don't mention the past, and take care of your wounds with peace of mind."The two of them also exchanged views on issues such as the unified leadership and command of the party and army in the two base areas of Shaanxi, Gansu and northern Shaanxi, fighting together, and smashing the enemy's "encirclement and suppression". north.Soon, Liu Zhidan notified Gao Gang to go to northern Shaanxi to assist in the formation of the 27th Army.After Gao Gang arrived in Anding, he went to Dengzhan Bay to visit Zichang and talked about work.At this time, Comrade Zichang's condition was deteriorating day by day, and he could not even speak much, and shed tears when he met him.It seems that there are difficulties and unspeakable secrets, but he hesitates to speak.

Comrade Xie Zichang made great contributions to the establishment of the armed forces and the establishment of the Soviet Area by cooperating with Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang during the initial period of the Shaanxi-Gansu and Northern Shaanxi revolution. His contribution in the history of Northwest China is indelible. One of the leaders who fired the first shot.In order to meet the needs of the struggle situation, the Northern Shaanxi Special Committee, according to the instructions of the superior and under the leadership of Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang, on January 31, 1935, in Baimiaocha, Anding County, the former Independent Division of Northern Shaanxi (under the jurisdiction of the first and second regiments) ) and several guerrillas as the basis, it was reorganized into the 84th Division of the 27th Army of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, with Yang Qi as the division commander and Zhang Dazhi as the political commissar.The Eighty-Fourth Division was the first regular Red Army unit established in the northern Shaanxi base, creating conditions for the second victory in the counter-campaign against "encirclement and suppression".

On February 5, the Shaanxi-Gansu Border Special Committee and the Northern Shaanxi Special Committee held a joint meeting of the two special committees in Zhoujiajian, Chiyuan County (now part of Zichang County).Liu Zhidan, Gao Gang, Cui Tianfu, Guo Hongtao, Ma Mingfang and others attended the meeting.The meeting decided to establish the Northwest Working Committee of the Communist Party of China (referred to as the Northwest Working Committee) to unify the work of the party, government and army in the two places. Hui Zijun was appointed as the secretary of the working committee (formerly the secretary of the Shaanxi-Gansu Border Special Committee), and Gao Gang was elected as a member of the working committee; The Northwest Revolutionary Military Commission of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army (referred to as the Northwest Military Commission) was established. Liu Zhidan served as the chairman of the Military Commission, and Gao Gang served as the vice chairman and secretary-general of the Military Commission. They unified the centralized leadership and unified command of the 26th and 27th armies and guerrillas in various places.

Disagreements arose during the meeting when discussing candidates for the working committee. Liu Zhidan, Gao Gang, and others proposed that Hui Zijun be the secretary of the working committee. The reason was that he had been effective in his work as secretary of the special committee in the Shaanxi-Gansu border and had accumulated certain experience.Some people suggested that a person who was born as a farm laborer should be the secretary.Gao Gang put the interests of the revolution first. He said that it was right to advocate worker and peasant cadres as leaders.However, in order to select capable worker and peasant cadres, it is impossible for worker and peasant cadres to become leaders.Some people can't read a few pockets and can't even speak clearly. They call criticism "exploitation and exploitation" and reverse the meaning. As for Marxism-Leninism, there is no mention of proletarian ideology.How can this lead the revolutionary struggle in Shaanxi and Gansu provinces?Without independent thinking, one cannot adhere to revolutionary principles.This is not to plant onions and garlic, just plant a few plants and forget it.

At the meeting, Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang's plan to crush the enemy's second "encirclement and suppression" was seriously discussed, and it was decided to concentrate the main forces of the two base areas to fight in northern Shaanxi, focusing on attacking the enemy who penetrated into the center of the base area, and attacking Yanchang, Yanchuan, An and then develop southward and westward, open up the connection with Shaanxi and Gansu, and end the situation of being separated by the enemy at both ends; transfer the third regiment of the main force of the 42nd Division of the 26th Army and the Northwest Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army to northern Shaanxi. The 27th Army formed the main Red Army Corps in the Northwest to conduct mobile operations in northern Shaanxi; the New 1st and 8th Guerrilla Groups and the 10th, 12th, and 23rd Guerrilla Groups in northern Shaanxi were organized into the 1st and 3rd Guerrilla Columns.Other guerrilla detachments in northern Shaanxi were also reorganized into the second, fourth, fifth, and sixth guerrilla columns. Relying on the guerrilla areas, they actively developed northward, encircled enemy strongholds, harassed and wiped out small groups of enemies, and cooperated with the main Red Army to counter the "encirclement and suppression campaign". "Combat, assist the local government to organize and arm the masses, and expand the base area.The first and second regiments, the main force of the Red Twenty-sixth Army, the cavalry regiment and the guerrillas from all over the Shaanxi-Gansu border persisted in the struggle in the Shaanxi-Gansu border base areas and the southern front, and cooperated with the northern Shaanxi anti-"encirclement and suppression" campaign.

The Zhou Jiajian meeting was a very important meeting, which laid a political, organizational, military, and ideological foundation for further promoting the great development of the Northwest Revolution. Prior to this, under the guidance of Wang Ming's wrong line, the revolutionary situation in the southern Central Soviet Area took a turn for the worse, and most of the base areas were destroyed. The main force of the Central Red Army broke through the enemy's fifth "encirclement and suppression" and was forced to withdraw from the base areas. It had already begun in October 1934. long march.Chiang Kai-shek was overwhelmed with complacency, trying to annihilate the revolutionary armed forces in one fell swoop, echoing from the north and the south, blocking the front and chasing after them, and attacking from all sides.The Central Red Army fought arduously against the enemy under very difficult conditions during the Long March, fought resolutely against separatism and capitulationism within our party, and moved forward to the front line of the Anti-Japanese War.

Under the establishment of the Northwest Military Commission and its correct leadership, the revolutionary situation in the Northwest region developed vigorously, the Red Army continued to grow, and the base area gradually expanded.The Soviet regime in Shaanxi, Gansu and northern Shaanxi was generally established, and the agrarian revolution movement continued to rise, which dealt a heavy blow to the reactionary arrogance of the enemies in Shaanxi, Gansu and northern Shaanxi, and greatly inspired the sentiments of the revolutionary masses.This not only shook the reactionary rule of the northwest warlords and landlords, but also aroused panic in the central government of the Kuomintang. From 1934 to the spring of 1935, when the Central Red Army was on its way to the Long March, the Central Military Commission of the Kuomintang ordered 40,000 to 50,000 troops of warlords in four provinces including Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, and Shanxi to launch an "encirclement and suppression" campaign against the revolutionary base areas in Shaanxi, Gansu, and northern Shaanxi in an attempt to eliminate The Northwest Revolutionary Force dug up the Red Army's only complete Northwest Revolutionary Base.The Kuomintang's military "clearance and suppression" deployment is: from north to south, the five regiments of the 86th Division of Jingyuexiu, a warlord in northern Shaanxi, will carry out "suppression" against Shenmu, Fugu, Jiaxian, Mizhi, Hengshan, Jingbian, Baoan and other counties. In the east, Chen Bing, the 71st Division of the Jin Army, crossed the Yellow River to the east, and his 206th Brigade crossed the Yellow River westward in April, occupied Wubao and Suide, and supported the enemy's 86th Division in "clearing and suppressing"; in the south, there was the enemy The 4 regiments of the 42nd Division, from south to north, "cleared and suppressed" Yijun, Fuxian, Central (that is, Huangling), Luochuan, Ganquan and other areas; the 7 regiments of Ma Hongkui's 35th Division in the west, "Clear and suppress" the Heshui, Huachi, and Qingyang areas.Chiang Kai-shek dispatched 6 regiments from the 61st Division of his direct lineage to deploy in the Zhengning and Ningxian areas. Anding, Yanchang, Yanchuan, Yan'an and other central areas of northern Shaanxi base areas were "cleared and suppressed".In the large-scale divisional "encirclement and suppression" launched by the KMT this time, they learned the lessons from the failures of the previous "encirclement and suppression" campaigns, and implemented the method of the fifth "encirclement and suppression" of our central Soviet area in the south. The camps were stationed, people were forced to go to the village, villages were merged, household registration was checked, and Baojia was established. Step by step, a steady and steady strategy, attacked the Soviet area from all directions, encroached on the base area, and tried to wipe out the Red Army in the Northwest.In order to strengthen the leadership of the "cleaning and suppression campaign", Chiang Kai-shek specially dispatched a staff group led by Mao Kan to the Suide supervisory team to coordinate the relationship between the various warlords and supervise the actions of the various warlords.

At that time, the Shaanxi-Gansu and Northern Shaanxi Soviet areas were not in contact with each other, and the armed forces of the Red Army were also small. The main force of the Red Army was less than 4,000 people, and only 3,000 people could go to the battlefield. The guerrillas in the two places were about 3000 to 4000 people. Only about one-eighth of the enemy.Weapons and equipment, logistics supplies, vehicles, etc., are even more incomparable.The Gan army first invaded Nanliang, the center of the Shaanxi-Gansu border Soviet area, and committed rape, burning, killing, and looting wantonly.The common people suffered unprecedented catastrophe, and Baozichuan, Pingdingchuan, Huluhechuan, Linjinmiao, Lianjiabian and other places became desolate.Xi Zhongxun, chairman of the Shaanxi-Gansu border government, was almost captured, but was rescued by guards such as Wang Dianbin, and the government agencies and their affiliated units were transferred to Xiasiwan, Sichuan, Luohe.The landlords and gentry came back to take back the allocated land and property, counterattacked and reckoned, and resumed fascist rule and exploitation.The Northern Shaanxi Soviet Area is also facing serious danger.When Gao Guizi's troops entered northern Shaanxi, they were domineering and domineering as if they had entered a no-man's land. After receiving defenses in Suide, Qingjian, Anding and other areas, they built bunkers everywhere, strengthened the landlord's armed forces, established a "suppressing counter-revolutionary" committee, and established The Baojia system, the implementation of the "Continuous Sitting Law", the establishment of the "Volunteer Team to Eradicate the Communist Party", undermined our party and regiment organizations, carried out activities of "suppressing rebellion" and "instigating rebellion", destroyed the political power, tortured and killed the people, searched and captured the main force of the Red Army, and tried to eliminate The main force of the Red Army and the guerrillas and their living conditions reported to Chiang Kai-shek: "The Red Bandits have been leveled before a bomb is fired." On April 15, the Northwest Working Committee and the Military Commission held a joint meeting in Yujiawan, Chiyuan County. Liu Zhidan, Gao Gang, Cui Tianfu, Guo Hongtao, Ma Mingfang, Gao Jiujiu, Zhang Dazhi and others attended the meeting.There were two different opinions at the meeting.In view of the fact that the enemy is strong and we are weak, Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang proposed that Shaanxi and Gansu use part of their main force to contain the enemy on the southern front, and that northern Shaanxi "concentrate all efforts to defeat the enemy one by one." .Someone proposed an adventurous plan to attack the enemy's fortifications in Suide and Mizhi, which was opposed by most comrades.The meeting decided to establish the former enemy general headquarters, with Liu Zhidan as the commander-in-chief and Gao Gang as the general political commissar (the Military Commission and the former general headquarters are actually a team with two brands).According to Liu and Gao's proposition, the meeting focused on the analysis of the enemy's situation in response to the enemy's advance and suppression, and studied and deployed the specific plan for the second counter "encirclement and suppression".The general headquarters issued the mobilization order drafted by Liu Zhidan to smash the enemy's second "encirclement and suppression" campaign and the political discipline and combat mobilization regulations formulated by Gao Gang. The "Mobilization Order" emphasized that the Red Army's war against "encirclement and suppression" was a mass war.The mobilization order requires the Red Army, guerrillas, Red Guards, and Young Pioneers to obey orders, obey unified command, implement strict militarization, and oppose decentralization and a state of no discipline.It pointed out that local party organizations and mass organizations extensively mobilized the masses to cooperate with the army against the "encirclement and suppression" war.After the meeting, Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang seized the opportunity to implement a unified organization of guerrilla units in all counties in northern Shaanxi and train guerrilla leaders and other backbones.Gao Gang personally conducted ideological mobilization for combat, gave lectures, and carried out political education and discipline education.All units earnestly carried out training, and learned the military and political discipline issued by the Northwest Military Commission, and the regulations on combat mobilization, which improved the class consciousness of the soldiers and the organizational discipline of the troops. According to the strategic plan of Liu and Gao, the main force of the Red Twenty-Sixth Army cooperated with the guerrillas, Red Guards and the masses on the southern Shaanxi-Gansu border to repel the enemy on the southern front. The twenty-seventh army fought together.Due to careful organization, mobilization and deployment, and in-depth and meticulous ideological and political work, after the troops entered the battle, the party, government, military and civilians in the base area united as one, resolutely implemented the "strategic plan of concentrating all efforts to defeat the enemy individually" proposed by Liu and Gao, and fought together.Wherever the Red Army went, local party and government organizations mobilized the masses to cooperate closely. The Red Guards and Young Pioneers all took up spears, broadswords, and earthen guns to assist the Red Army and guerrillas in fighting.They are scattered on the surrounding hills of the enemy's stronghold, monitoring the enemy's actions, blocking the enemy's news, and reporting the number and actions of the enemy to the Red Army or guerrillas at any time.The masses set up passing posts everywhere, marked by raising soil, and raising soil there meant that the enemy was moving there, and the news spread from mountain to mountain, and soon spread to the Red Army and guerrilla headquarters.Sometimes they set up suspicious formations, waving flags and shouting on the mountains to intimidate and confuse the enemy; sometimes they sent troops to contain and disrupt the enemy's actions;Encouraged by the mobilization order, people from all over the country actively joined the army and participated in guiding, sending letters, guarding sentries, stretchering, transporting, checking pedestrians, comforting the wounded, preparing food and transporting grass, etc. Women repaired clothes and made shoes for the troops, and took care of the wounded and sick.The entire base area is united as one, and the army and the people are united as one, condensed into a strong force to crush the enemy's "encirclement and suppression". The main force of the 26th Army fought on the southern front and fought with the enemy who first penetrated into the Shaanxi-Gansu border base area. With the assistance of the guerrillas and Red Guards, they wiped out part of the enemy's vital forces. A part of the enemy under Ma Hongbin defeated a battalion and stopped the enemy's advance.In this battle, Wang Shitai, the head of the Red Third Regiment, and Zhao Guoqing, the head of the cavalry, were injured. After the troops returned to Nanliang to rest, the head of the three regiments was replaced by Wu Daifeng, and the head of the cavalry was replaced by Kang Jianmin.According to the orders of the Northwest Military Commission and the former general, the Cavalry Regiment, Red Regiment 1, and Second Regiment were commanded by Liu Jingfan and Yang Sen, and insisted on countering "encirclement and suppression" in the Nanliang Revolutionary Base.The Red Third Regiment and the Northwest Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army were led by Zhang Xiushan and Wu Daifeng to northern Shaanxi.The Third Red Regiment and the Volunteer Army went northward, fought several battles with the enemy along the way, won victories, and moved to camp in the Sunjiahe area of ​​Chiyuan County. Zhang Xiushan sent people to send letters to Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang.After receiving the letter, Liu and Gao immediately rode to the army camp to meet them.Zhang Xiushan, Wu Daifeng, Guo Baoshan and others were having a meeting. Gao Gang and Liu Zhidan attended the meeting and conveyed the situation and spirit of Zhou Jiajian's meeting to Zhang Xiushan and others.Zhidan said: "Comrade Xiushan did not attend the meeting, and the meeting decided that you should be appointed as the propaganda director of the Northwest Working Committee. Your temporary political commissar (that is, the political commissar of the 42nd Division of the 26th Army) will still be handed over to Lao Gao."Liu and Gao asked about the situation in Nanliang and the injuries of Wang Shitai and Zhao Guoqing, and Zhang Xiushan and others made a detailed report. On April 22, Gao Gang concurrently served as the political commissar of the 26th Army and the 42nd Division. Together with Liu Zhidan, he personally commanded the Red Third Regiment and the Volunteer Army. First, he wiped out the northern Shaanxi warlords in the battle at Si'erpan, Hengshan County (now part of Jingbian County) An elite company of Jing Yuexiu.The victory in the first battle boosted the morale of the troops, enhanced the masses' confidence in victory, and destroyed the enemy's prestige.This battle was the first victory of the main force of the 26th Army going north, and it was a meeting ceremony with the 27th Army.Since then, Hengshan has popularized such a song in praise of the Red Army's victory at Si'er: On May 1st, the International Labor Day, the 26th Army and the 27th Army met in Baimiaocha, Chiyuan County.More than 2,000 people from the two armies combined to form the main corps, and held a 10,000-person gathering. Gao Gang presided over the meeting and gave a speech. Liu Zhidan officially announced the establishment of the general headquarters and made an important speech.Representatives of the two armies addressed the conference and expressed their resolve.In his speech, Gao Gang emphasized that after the meeting of the two armies, they must cooperate with each other, do a good job in unity and fighting, smash the enemy's second "encirclement and suppression", and use guns to create a new situation in the Red May, and unite Shaanxi, Gansu and Northern Shaanxi. into one piece.Ma Mingfang, Chairman of the Soviet Government of Northern Shaanxi Province, also spoke at the meeting, expressing his firm support for the main force of the Red Army to fight against "encirclement and suppression." On this day, Baimiaocha was extremely lively, with a sea of ​​people and red flags flying.The Red Guards and the masses from tens of miles around all came to the meeting wearing new clothes, proud and excited, and the meeting place was filled with an atmosphere of closeness, unity and enthusiasm among the brotherly troops and the masses.Sitting on the rostrum were Liu Zhidan, Gao Gang, Ma Mingfang, Zhang Xiushan, Wu Daifeng and other former leaders and leaders of the two armies.The crowd in the audience was whispering, whispering, and questioning the name and official position of each leader.They said: "You old Red Army from Nanliang is here, so beautiful! We need to rely on you to turn around and live a good life!" Afterwards, they made a song and sang: After the two armies joined forces, under the unified command of Liu and Gao, the limited forces formed a powerful fist. In addition, the Red Army had a solid base area, the people actively supported it, and the guerrillas and Red Guards cooperated closely. . At the beginning of the "Qing Suppression" by Gao Guizi's troops, they believed that they had a large number of troops, well equipped, and sufficient weapons, and they were very arrogant.As soon as Gao Guizi's headquarters entered Suide, he installed nails and set up strongholds everywhere, and stretched out all ten fingers, planning to stay in northern Shaanxi for a long time, spend his hometown of Sun and Moon, and take people back to his hometown of Dingbian to "visit relatives" Everywhere, they brag that the leaders of the Red Army in the Northwest are all from northern Shaanxi, and they dare not move if I am in northern Shaanxi. "I stand on the city wall and shout, and the Red Army will come back" (meaning surrender). Before April, he had successively invaded and occupied some towns in the base area, gradually encroaching on the base area, focusing on clear streams and stability.In order to control the Wayaobao coal necessary for the people's life in the base area, a regiment was stationed. On May 2, Gao Guizi transferred another battalion to Yangyuanze, built fortifications, and prepared to set up a station to maintain the traffic from Qingjian to Wayaobao, control the Yangyuanze coal mine, plunder coal, and "clear" the surrounding area.Our former enemy general headquarters decided to deploy troops immediately when the enemy's foothold is not stable and the situation is unfamiliar, to resolutely eliminate this department, pull out this nail, and kill Gao Guizi's prestige.Gao Gang’s battle mobilization report pointed out that our strength is still weak, strategically it is defensive, and tactically it is to concentrate all our efforts to eliminate the enemy.The first battle after our reunion is of great significance, and the commanders and fighters of the entire army must resolutely win this battle. On the night of May 6, Liu and Gao ordered the 27th Army to march into Yangyuanze, and the 26th Army to attack Dunshan Village.Draw another 1 regiment to block the enemy from Qingjian's reinforcements.The troops moved into the designated position, concealed themselves, blocked the news from the outside, and formed a horn offensive against the enemy. On the morning of the 7th, Liu Gao observed the terrain and found that the wall of the village was high and the mountain was dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, so he changed his plan and ordered the troops to retreat 15 miles to stand by.When the Red Army retreated, it was already daylight, and the enemy chased them in two ways after discovering it, which happened to be a way to lure the snake out of the hole. Our army rose up to resist, and the main force continued to retreat, luring the enemy to go deep.When the 1st Red Regiment of the 27th Army withdrew to Wujiazhaizi to prepare breakfast, a company of the 500th Regiment of Wayaobao escorted a group of "prisoners" to Wujiazhaizi, preparing to send them to Suide.The former general ordered the Red Group to set up an ambush in the store and wiped out the enemy in one fell swoop. Except for more than 10 people who escaped, they captured more than 100 enemies, seized 9 machine guns, more than 90 long and short guns and a batch of ammunition, and rescued the escort. Communist Party members and revolutionary masses. The enemy stationed in Yangyuanze heard the gunshots, left the fortifications and rushed out for reinforcements, occupying Wujiazhai and the hill behind it.Taking advantage of the opportunity of the enemy leaving the solid fortifications, I hurriedly ordered the retreating troops to return and launch an attack, causing the enemy to be surrounded by our army. The local Red Guards, Young Pioneers and the masses heard the gunshots and came to the four mountains to help and support. After several hours of fierce fighting, more than 500 enemy troops were wiped out, including 450 people below the deputy battalion commander, and more than 50 people including the enemy battalion commander Guo Zifeng were killed. More than 500 guns, 27 machine guns, and a large amount of ammunition and supplies were seized. . On that day, the 3rd Battalion of the 500th Regiment of the 84th Division of the enemy and the machine gun company directly under the regiment escorted a regiment of about three or four hundred loads of salaries, quilts, etc., as well as some family members of officers such as the wife of the regiment commander Li Shaotang. De set out to stay in Qingjian for one night. On the afternoon of the 7th, he marched towards Wayaobao and went to the vicinity of Majiaping.When the enemy first entered the Soviet area, he was not only deaf, but also blind, and could not get any news.The enemy didn't know the reality and was in a dilemma, so he was forced to stop advancing and camp in Majiaping.The local government and the party organization mobilized many people to cooperate with the guerrillas and Red Guards to shoot guns and set off paper cannons in the four mountains. More and more Red Guards and Young Pioneers cheered for the strong camp. Gathering nearly 10,000 people, they naturally formed a formation of suspicious soldiers, which was magnificent.The enemy was unable to advance, unable to retreat, terrified and at a loss, seeing the Red Army all over the mountains and plains, tried to break out several times in vain, but was beaten back by guerrillas and Red Guards.The enemy built fortifications on the two mountains north of Majiaping and stood by for help. The main force of the Red Army withdrew to the Huangjiachuan area to rest after winning the battles at Yangyuanze and Wujiazhai.The local party organization sent someone to deliver a letter to Qianzhi. On the 9th, Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang led the main force to rush to Majiaping, where they launched an attack. One piece, earth-shattering, frightened the enemy.The Red Army quickly suppressed the enemy and wiped out Majiaping, killed more than 40 enemies, captured more than 450 enemies, and more than 100 people such as fugitive landlords, counter-revolutionaries, and the Communist Volunteer Team, and seized more than 400 long and short guns, 2 heavy Machine guns, more than 20 light machine guns, 2 82 mortars, 2,000 sets of military uniforms, 100,000 yuan in silver and medicines, and a large number of materials and weapons were equipped with the main force and guerrillas.The wife and other family members of the enemy regiment commander were also captured.Everyone has guns and ammunition, clothing has been greatly changed, the equipment of the Red Army has been improved, and difficulties in life have been solved.For the first time, the Northwest Red Army paid salaries to soldiers. After the two armies joined forces, they fought in Yangyuanze and Majiaping for only three days. They wiped out two entire battalions and one company of the 84th Division of Gao Guizi, killed more than 100 people, captured more than 1,100 enemies, and seized a large number of supplies. severely damaged the enemy's spirit.Gao Guizi's bullshit broke, and even the enemy yelled and cursed: "Gao Guizi, Eighty-Fourth Division, you are driving me to death. You lost two battalions in a few days, so you can't blow your bullshit." After the three battles of Yang Yuanze, Wujiazhaizi, and Majiaping, the 84th Division of Gao Guizi was hit hard and was forced to shrink its stronghold, and the troops of its 500th regiment stationed in Anding County hurriedly withdrew back to Wayaobao. With one shot of the gun, he entered the county smoothly on the 10th.The enemies who invaded Xiuyan and Anding retreated back, the revolutionary base areas expanded and consolidated, the Red Army grew stronger, the confidence of the army and the people to win was greatly enhanced, and the first battle of the second counter-campaign against "encirclement and suppression" was successful. This battle fully demonstrated the incomparably powerful power of the people's war, created a model of close cooperation between the main Red Army and local armed forces, practiced Comrade Mao Zedong's military strategic thinking, and satisfactorily realized what Gao Gang pointed out during the mobilization before the war. "Fight the first battle" purpose.Due to careful organization, in-depth mobilization, and serious training, the guerrillas, Red Guards, Young Pioneers, and the masses actively cooperated with the main Red Army in combat, charged into battle, surrounded and annihilated the enemy, prepared food and water, carried wounded soldiers, and took prisoners. This situation is not only a battlefield mobilization education for the Red Army commanders and fighters, but also an excellent education for the prisoners.The prisoner said: "You Red Army soldiers are really brave. The enthusiasm of the people in the base area is so high, it is really a solidarity between the army and the people...". After the battle between Yang Yuanze and Majiaping, the former enemy general headquarters attached great importance to education to win captives, and promptly implemented the captive policy.The forward direction issued instructions to the leaders of the divisions and regiments, demanding that the Red Army fight to liberate the poor and overthrow the reactionary rule.In particular, we strengthened the work of a large number of prisoners. Gao Gang personally explained to the prisoners the purpose of the Red Army's war. After in-depth and meticulous publicity and education, many prisoners joined the Red Army, which strengthened the Red Army and provided useful experience for me to expand the number of troops in the future.For the captives who are willing to go home, each person will be paid 2 yuan in travel expenses to send them home.The family members of the enemy officers were negotiated by the local party leader Zhao Tongru and the head of the enemy regiment Li Shaotang to agree on the location and time of the handover. dependents. The implementation of the captive policy greatly shocked the enemy camp. They said that "the Communist Party and the Red Army are trustworthy, and their words and deeds are consistent." The influence of the Red Army was further expanded, and the support of the people in the base areas reached an unprecedented climax.Where the Red Army passed by, young men who were plowing the land and herding sheep threw away their tools and followed the Red Army as soldiers and left without saying hello to their families.The troops walked in front, followed by a group of young peasants who were going to be the Red Army.At that time, due to the lack of guarantee of logistics, it was difficult to expand the army in large quantities.Gao Gang organized political cadres to mobilize them to return, and at the same time, the young people who refused to return were examined and selected to be recruited into the Red Army as soldiers, so that the Red Army expanded rapidly.Some can't be soldiers, so they ask people to intercede to "find a backer" or "go through the back door".Liu Zhilong (retired cadre of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Disciplinary Inspection Commission) who once served as Gao Gang's security guard said that he was just asking someone to intercede to join the Red Army.Popular jingles made up by the masses themselves: On May 10, the Northwest Working Committee, the Military Commission, and the former General Assembly held a celebration meeting in Yujiawan, Xiuyan County, to celebrate the victory of the three battles.At the meeting, the situation was carefully analyzed, strategic issues were studied, and it was decided to send troops south to fight mobile warfare and eliminate the enemy's vital forces.Liu Zhidan proposed to "open up the connection between the Shaanxi-Gansu border and the northern Shaanxi base during the Red May".The former enemy general headquarters carefully summed up the experience of relying on the people's war to win, further studied strategic and tactical issues, carried out in-depth war mobilization, decided to attack from outside lines, attacked east and west, and extended the attack.At the meeting, Comrade Guo Hongtao's mistakes were criticized and his position was adjusted. At the same time, the combat model units and meritorious personnel were rewarded and praised at the meeting.Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang delivered important speeches on behalf of the Northwest Military Commission and the former generals at the meeting, encouraging advanced units and meritorious personnel to "make persistent efforts to connect Shaanxi-Gansu and northern Shaanxi base areas in Red May, make new contributions and create new achievements." Miracle!" the crowd sang: At the Yujiawan meeting, left-leaning adventurism was criticized, and some comrades were criticized for their adventurous proposition of insisting on tackling tough battles and attacking the enemy's well-defended cities.The troops have won consecutive battles, coupled with this mobilization, the fighting spirit is high, and they are eager to fight in order to open up the connection between Shaanxi, Gansu and northern Shaanxi.After the meeting, Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang led the main force to set off. In order to confuse the enemy, they used the strategy of attacking east and west, and the troops advanced eastward to divert attention from prolonging the defense of the enemy.The Red Army marched eastward to Dingxianyan and stationed a battalion of the Jin army Shi Zebo in preparation for attacking the enemy's stronghold.Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang personally reconnaissance the terrain and found that the terrain of the enemy's stronghold is dangerous and the wall is high, easy to defend but difficult to attack.They then decided to abandon the attack plan and turn to Suide. They wiped out one company of Gao Guizi's 84th Division at Zhangjiagetai, seized 9 machine guns, more than 80 long and short guns, killed more than 20 people below the enemy company commander, and captured hundreds of enemies. Yu people.The enemy was wiped out, the masses rejoiced, and the guerrilla zone expanded to the south of Wubao, east of Suide, and to the vast area on the west bank of the Yellow River. Afterwards, the former President intentionally released rumors that the Red Army was going to attack Qingjian and Suide counties, and then go north to the bases of Mizhi, Wubao, and Jiaxian to open up connections with the bases of Shenfu and join the troops of Wang Zhaoxiang and Yang Wenmou.This created a big illusion for the enemy, making the Suide and Qingjian defenders panic, rushing to repair the fortifications day and night, and put on strict vigilance.Mizhi guarded the enemy's stronghold and tightened defenses, while Yanchang County stationed a cavalry company of the 84th Division and more than a hundred militia regiments, thinking that the Red Army was marching eastward, but he was safe and sound, and his defenses were lax and vigilant.Liu and Gao decided to move south quickly, staying day and night, and attacking Yanchang. On May 25, they rushed to the vicinity of Yanchang to hide and waited to attack the city. Yanchang City is surrounded by mountains in the north and Yanhe River in the south. There are only two city gates and two commanding heights in the city. There are more than 150 enemy soldiers stationed there.The Red Army has about 2,000 people, several times more than the enemy.However, although there are few enemies, there are plenty of guns and ammunition.Landlords and gentry gathered in the city, and most of the militias were landlords, gentry and lambs who were extremely reactionary and desperadoes. In addition, they were guarding the city dangerously, and sneak attacks might cause certain losses to the Red Army.The former refers to changing the plan of the storm, and decided to lure the enemy out of the city, "turn the tiger away from the mountain, and take advantage of the gap to attack", and then ordered a company of the Second Regiment of the 27th Army and some guerrillas to take on the task of luring the enemy out of the city, and drove to a place 20 miles away from the city. In the local area, the local tyrants were beaten and the property was distributed, which was in full swing and the momentum was very loud.The other large forces were tightly concealed and prepared to attack the city.The landlords and gentry who were being struggled sneaked into the city to report letters for help. They all said that the Red Army was not many, they were guerrillas, and the large forces had gone to attack Suide and Qingjian.The landlords and gentry in the city, as well as the hooligans, thugs, and dog legs of the militia, urged Li Mingwu, the head of the militia, to go out of the city to "crusade" day and night.Li Mingwu heard that there were not many Red Army troops and was eager to take the lead. He led more than a hundred members of the militia to attack the local tyrants in a murderous manner.The troops that I lured the enemy out of the city showed weakness and let the enemy go, pretending to be defeated, and resisting steadily.Li Mingwu was overwhelmed and chased after him for dozens of miles.The enemies in the city thought that the Red Army had been driven away by Li Mingwu, and they were even more relaxed, waiting for the echo of "victory". After putting down the ecstasy formation with the front finger, he stepped up his preparations for the siege. On the night of May 29, I ordered the troops to take the ladder to the city.After a short and fierce battle, the Red First Regiment and the Volunteer Army captured the East Gate, annihilating the commanding heights and defending the enemy in their sleep.Liu Zhidan and Gao Gang led the main force into the city and commanded the volunteer army to attack the enemy cavalry company headquarters. With lightning-fast movements, they completely wiped out the company headquarters defending the enemy and captured the enemy company commander Wang Jinghe alive.Xishanzhai and Ximen were opened by the 3rd Regiment of the 42nd Division, which wiped out the enemy guards in the northwest corner and cleaned up the mine police team.Liu and Gao commanded an army to go straight to the county government, but the county magistrate disappeared, but the embroidered quilt was still warmly thrown on the bed, and the Chinese tunic suit hanging on the hanger ran away without thinking about wearing it.Later, the soldiers pulled out the embarrassing county magistrate from the pile of firewood.The Red Guards on the surrounding hills shouted, "Hand up your guns and don't kill! Prisoners are treated preferentially!" Gunshots and shouts echoed in the valley in the middle of the night. On the morning of the 30th, the whole city defended the enemy cleanly and was quickly wiped out.At noon that day, Li Mingwu, the head of the militia, found out that he had fallen into the trap of the Red Army. Like a gambler who had lost everything, the militia ran back to Yanchang County in a state of desperation.The former general of the Red Army had already set up an ambush. Li Mingwu entered Hujiachuan in the east of the city, and was attacked and wiped out by our army.After the liberation of Yanchang County, the militia groups in Ganguyi, Anhequ and other places were frightened and surrendered to the Red Army one after another. During the extended battle, Liu and Gao Miao fought a beautiful battle of annihilation using the flexible strategies and tactics of "strike east and attack west", lure the enemy out of the nest, and "concentrate all efforts and defeat each one".我仅以伤亡10余人的代价，毙、伤、俘敌近四百人，缴获骡马170余匹，各种枪支400多，银元10万多块，还有大批被服、药品，又一次改善了新扩编红军的装备，筹集了经费，部队第二次领到薪饷。 打开延长县城，大快人心，部队就地休整几天，成立了城防司令部。高岗指示延长县委、县工农民主政权迁进县城办公，并协助白如冰(县书)和罗成德(县长)组建维护城市秩序的保卫部门和群众组织，主持召开群众大会，宣布处决了伪县长董松寿等几个罪大恶极的反动分子。刘志丹、高岗和县领导在镇反大会上讲了话，他们鼓励军民继续战斗，争取更大的胜利……同时总结红军游击战和机动战相结合的经验，使红军威势大振，群众扬眉吐气。参加会议的部队、游击队、赤卫军、居民、农民，高呼“中国共产党万岁！”“中国工农红军万岁！”“打倒蒋介石国民党政府！”。会后，刘志丹、高岗和部队指战员、地方领导一起照相留念。 战略的目的在某种情况下可以达到战争的任务。延长解放后，6月1日延川县城守敌八十四师的1个连和民团唯恐被歼，连夜逃回清涧，永坪镇守敌龟缩回瓦窑堡。我军没用一枪一弹，进驻延川、永坪。 至此，宜川以北，咸榆公路以东，临镇、延长、延川和绥德以南，除清涧、瓦窑堡城里驻扎部分敌人外，其他各敌据点全部拔掉，根据地和游击区大大拓宽，地方党组织、政权机关相继建立和加强，发动和领导群众打土豪，斗地主，分田地，使根据地日益巩固。 安定、延长、延川三县相继解放后，刘、高率部西进，乘胜拔除陕甘边与陕北根据地中间的敌据点，以打通两地的联系为主要目标。前敌总指决定先夺甘泉，孤立延安，再打安塞的进军计划。6月4日，部队从宜川县的临镇出发，日夜兼程西进，奔袭甘泉，准备6日拂晓发起攻击。甘泉驻杨虎城部四十二师一个营。部队到麻子掌，侦察员回来报告敌人已发现红军的意图，加修工事，戒备严密。红军由于连续作战，伤病员逐渐增多，强攻不易取胜。刘、高在这里召开前指会议，经分析研究，确定放弃攻打甘泉的计划，遂命部队转移到陕甘边政府驻地——下寺湾休整。 下寺湾是陕甘边的老根据地，地处洛河上游，群众条件好。陕甘边特委、军委和政府机关在春季搬到这里，红军总医院、兵工厂等也迁到这里。前敌总指挥部驻在王家坪。高岗等带领师、团领导拿着战利品到医院看望伤病员，询问医疗、食宿等情况，安慰伤员安心养伤。这一带是高岗曾多次活动的地区，发展游击队开展游击战争中，结识不少朋友，有男的，也有女的。一次在“十里香”的小店里住宿，高双成部一股队伍“追剿”红军，半夜闯进店里，高岗来不及出走，店主把他藏在粮囤子里，避免了厄运。 在休整期间，刘、高重新研究了作战部署，确定先打安塞县城兴乐寨。兴乐寨驻守民团200余人，力量不强，可寨子比较难攻，三面环沟，一面连山，地形险要。红军没有炮兵，只靠机步枪很难得手。刘高命部队在敌人的寨跟底挖地洞，并准备安一副棺材装炸药爆破寨墙，没等红军爆破，寨子里的敌人趁夜逃跑。第二天天亮部队冲进寨子，活捉了正在交接手续的新旧两任县长，肃清了残敌，未伤一兵一卒解放了安塞县城。高桥民团得悉兴乐寨解放，日夜慌恐不安。前指命张达志、贺晋年带1个团到高桥包围了寨子。兵临城下，经过政治攻势，民团向红军投降，同时打垮了延安派来的援军。安塞县除李家塌，全县敌人据点全被拔除。前指决定坚决拔除李家塌这颗钉子，打掉陕甘与陕北通道上的主要障碍。 李家塌寨堡，北高南低，位于真武洞西面的一个阳湾里。东、西、南三面临天然大沟，沟深峭壁，很难登寨。东北角是全寨的制高点，既可控制全寨，又可俯瞰寨外周围。寨子只有一个东门，又开在陡峭的崖畔上，地形十分险要。寨墙周围布满滚木檑石。该寨是安塞境内最后一个敌据点，且是控制陕甘边和陕北互相往来联系的一个重要通道。寨子里聚集着全县最反动的地主、恶霸、豪绅及其武装、家属等2000多人，驻有民团200多人，非常反动、顽固。他们的全部财物都积聚在寨子里，周围的群众对此恨之入骨，日夜盼望红军来消灭这群豺狼。部队在兴乐寨没打上仗，手正急的发痒，各团纷纷请求主攻任务。 6月17日，刘志丹、高岗率部队包围了李家塌寨子，二十七军一团担任主攻任务，转了几天，无法攀登。刘高经过仔细观察研究，6月21日命贺晋年挑选了30多个能爬崖的战士，组织“敢死队”，在二十六军三团的机枪掩护下顺石缝爬上去，越过寨墙，冲进寨子，马枪、短枪、手榴弹一齐打向敌人。敌人倾巢而出，用滚木、擂石、盆盆碗碗、菜刀和枪弹一齐向敢死队打来。战士发扬勇敢战斗，不怕牺牲的精神，一直杀向东门，有的队员身负重伤仍坚持战斗，终于打开东门，主力部队冲进去，占领制高点，全寨的敌人无路可逃，有的顽固分子跳寨墙摔死，有的交枪投降。当日傍晚战斗结束，共毙伤600多人，缴枪200多支。我军伤亡也较大，是陕北二次反“围剿”以来伤亡最多的一次。寨子打开后，刘志丹、高岗上寨看到牺牲的战士，高岗悲愤地说，你们打得好，完成了党的一个光荣任务，敌人越临近灭亡越是疯狂，我们用不少同志的生命、鲜血换来陕甘、陕北根据地的联系，我们要以更大的胜利纪念英勇牺牲的同志，并命令各团处理好烈士遗体和伤员转移治疗工作。 第二天，前指成立临时法庭。在李家塌对面湾大树底召开军民大会，审判处决了几名罪大恶极、反动透顶的家伙，群众拍手称快。他们说：“这下可把我们几辈子的仇恨都报了。” 群众编歌唱道： 此时，麦收期已到，瓦窑堡和横山县石湾镇守敌，趁我大军南下而出城抢收麦子，掳掠财物，糟害百姓，进犯赤源县、秀延县，威胁西北工委、军委机关。刘、高决定派二十七军二团返回安定打击敌人，保护后方，牵制敌人西犯。主力部队准备攻打靖边县城——镇靖。 红军主力打罢李家塌，将伤员转送到下寺湾红军野战医院。刘、高率部队到青阳岔、卧牛城休整。6月26日召开团以上军事干部会议，重新研究了下步作战方案。有的提出先打安边，这里富裕，好筹措部队供给；有的提出保安好打，但群众生活困难，部队供给不好筹集；有的提出先打靖边保险。刘、高根据大家意见决定攻打靖边，用奔袭的方法一举拿下。方案作出后，高岗回后方机关，由张达志代理二十六军政委。27日，部队从驻地出发到水脑界，第二天夜急行军逼近镇靖城，命靖边游击队警戒柠条梁(现梁镇)守敌增援镇靖，一部到芦河咀一带阻击横山敌人增援。 靖边县城驻守陕北军阀井岳秀部第二营，营长屈志鹏，共4个连，400多人，另有安定、安塞、靖边三县民团和县警队，共600多兵力，战斗力很强。红军共3000多人，占绝对优势。但是，屈营是井岳秀的“王牌”营，武器弹药充足，凭险据守，攻城相当困难。前指命令义勇军攻占西山寨，二十六军二团(此时二团归建)在城东南角突破向钟楼进攻，二十七军三团强攻城南门城楼，向城内发展，预定28日拂晓前到达指定位置开火。结果因夜行军有的未按时进入阵地，义勇军的带路人不熟地形见距镇靖不远地方有一个旧城误为镇靖耽误了一段时问，天亮才向镇靖开进时被敌人发现，偷袭未成，变为强攻。战斗开始，异常激烈。敌人把老百姓逼到前面当盾牌，他们在后反击，我军伤亡也很大。前进受阻，战斗形成僵持状态。前指遂调整部署，决定预备队等一齐上战场，指挥部领导亲临阵地指挥，向三道城门同时攻击，很快打乱敌人阵脚，刹时敌人溃不成军。敌营长看大势已去，无法控制，带残部越城逃跑。红军主攻部队围歼城里敌人，总指挥部命警卫部队骑兵，经过十来里地追击全歼逃敌，击毙屈志鹏于沙窝里。到下午4时战斗结束，毙、伤、俘敌人500余人，缴枪500多条、迫击炮6门。从安塞、安定和靖边跑进城的土豪、反革命分子等被一网打尽，红军打开监狱，放出“犯人”，全部、彻底消灭了榆林军阀的一个精锐营。井岳秀自寺儿畔吃亏后，又一次尝试到共产党领导的红军的厉害。 打开靖边，吓开保安。敌八十六师驻保安县城的一个营慑于红军威力，仓皇弃城逃跑，保安县城遂告解放。伪县长等政府要员惊恐万状，慌慌张张收拾值钱的东西逃跑，装铜钱的袋子拿走，装银洋的袋子丢下没顾拿。陕甘边苏维埃政府卫队在白天章、刘景范、马锡五指挥下，冲进保安县伪政府缴获装银洋的袋子和大批物资。张家畔、金佛坪、三道川等驻敌闻风逃回安边、旦八寨子、柠条梁。靖边县除阎家寨子、柠条梁和保安县的旦八寨子外，两县的敌人据点全部拔除。三个据点的敌人，凭险固守待援，提心吊胆，不敢妄动。 靖边县解放后，高岗得悉打靖边伤亡大，骑马连夜到麻城界前敌总指，刘志丹谈了解放靖边的情况，他悲伤地说：“靖边牺牲这么多干部和战士，比李家塌代价还大。”高岗说：“革命战争，免不了牺牲一些好同志。”他俩在回师安定的路上边走边谈，高岗针对后方机关存在的问题，提出要加强后方机关特别是干部培养，确定吴岱峰专抓军政干部培训。 靖边县群众编唱民歌颂扬红军(节抄)： 红缨杆子长，人马闹嚷嚷，走一回靖边，提了一回枪。 靖边包围定，老刘在前行，造了个云梯，爬上了城墙。 炸弹打得凶，烟气冒空中，机枪打开呀，一呀一哇声。 打开监牢门，“罪人”放出城，劳苦的群众，都呀都欢迎。 老刘指挥能，炮打屈志鹏，歇兵整三天，回呀回了营。 回到大后方，各团补充兵，弟兄都补起，闹呀闹革命。
