Guizhou Qiandabi area, which has been under the reactionary rule of the Kuomintang for a long time. The warlord forces dominate one side, and the tyrants and miscellaneous taxes are as numerous as cows, the land is barren and the people are poor, and the people live in extreme difficulties. At that time, most people in Guizhou Dabi area had never eaten rice since they were born, and they could not eat cooking oil and salt several times a year. Many teenage girls are so poor that they don’t wear pants, they can only wear a piece of rag around their waists. The Kuomintang warlord troops arrested the strong men, levy taxes, and forced military rations. When the common people heard that an army was coming, the young and middle-aged man hurriedly fled to the mountains.
In February 1936, after the Red Second and Sixth Army crossed the Wujiang , it created a Guixi base center centered on Guixi, Dading, and Bijie . The Red Second and Sixth Corps are disciplined, speak kindly, and do things fairly. They sent a propaganda team to hold a mass meeting, and the masses accuse the local tyrants and evil gentry in Yuru Township, and then beat the local tyrants and divide the land, and distribute their property to the poor people. 5,000 Bijie children participated in the Red Army team. The Red Second and Sixth Corps have launched a comprehensive approach to land reform, publicity, expansion of the Red Army, military, education, etc. The Red Army Second and Sixth Corps have carried out vigorously creating new bases, and the Guizhou Dabi area has shown an unprecedented prosperity.
On February 8, 1936, Ren Bishi led the establishment of the Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, and established the Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou Provincial Revolutionary Committee of the Soviet Republic of China. Subsequently, Ren Bishi went deep into the grassroots of urban and rural areas and led the establishment of government organizations at all levels of counties, districts, townships and villages, and successively established 95 rural Soviet regimes.
In terms of military affairs, Ren Bishi strengthened local armed forces, and based on the three armed forces controlled by the Guizhou Provincial Working Committee, he established a "Guizhou Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army" with more than 1,000 people, widely organized the establishment of local guerrilla armed forces, and established large and large-scale There are more than 90 guerrillas. Wang Zhen also personally organized and established a "Miao Independence Group".

, in terms of education, we have strengthened training and expanded our troops, and opened cadre training classes to improve military quality and cadres' theoretical level. The main forces of the Red Second and Sixth Corps have been expanded to more than 20,000 people.
With the support of the general public, the Red Second and Sixth Army Corps had abundant money and food, and various materials were piled up. The people are happy, and every household is like the New Year. The construction of the Guizhou, Da and Bi bases developed rapidly under the conditions of fierce attack by the enemy, reflecting Ren Bishi's outstanding ability to create a base.
Red 2nd and 6th Legions built bases in the Guizhou Dabi area. Chiang Kai-shek personally flew to Guiyang to arrange a new round of "encirclement and suppression" of the Red 2nd and 6th Legions, blocking the front and chasing the back and chasing the troops. To the northwest of
, the former blocking force was formed by the Yang Sen unit of the Sichuan Army and the Li Jiayu unit. The southwest direction is composed of Yunnan's anti-blocking force, which is to prevent both the Red Army and Chiang Kai-shek's Central Army from entering Yunnan. The east is composed of Wan Yaohuang, Hao Mengling, Li Jue, Fan Songfu, and "Five Kings" of Guo Rudong and . Responsible for surrounding and pursuing the Red Second and Sixth Legions from the northeast. After the defeat of the Tucheng Battle , the Central Red Army of crossed the Chishui River four times. The victory of President He's marching battle in Powumeng Mountain was caused by a defeated "Cherry Plate ambush battle".
On February 6, 1936, the Wan Yaohuang Column drove to Sanchong Weir, an important land east of Bijie. The Red Second and Sixth Legions judged that Wan Yaohuang might advance towards western Guizhou. So, Xiao Ke led the 17th Red Division, and Chief He personally led the 6th Red Division and the 4th Red Division, and two groups of people were ambushed in Cherry Square leading to Qianxi from Sanchongyan.
But unexpectedly, Wan Yaohuang stayed in Sanchongyan and refused to leave. Wan Yaohuang can wait, but the Red Second and Sixth Legions cannot wait. Once Wan Yaohuang and Hao Mengling meet, the battle will be even more difficult. On February 10, in order to mobilize Wan Yaohuang, He Long ordered the Red 17th Division to detour behind the enemy and capture Wan Yaohuang's retreat to the new stage of the new field of beating the Gu.The main forces of the Red Second and Sixth Corps went back to the back of the Wan Yaohuang Column and were preparing to fight an ambush battle when Wan Yaohuang returned to the new stage of the Gugong. But Wan Yaohuang, who was behind him, ignored the Red Army, who had cut off his retreat and rushed towards Qianxi County when the Red Army ambush in Yingtaoping left. Wan Yaohuang took away only one Red 18th Division guard Qianxi County without much effort, and then rushed to the Red 18th Division to rush forward. Although the Red 18th Division fought bravely, the enemy 23rd Division and the 99th Division on the other side of the Wujiang River took the opportunity to cross the river and form a siege against the Red 18th Division.

The battle situation deteriorated instantly, and the Red 18th Division was forced to move towards Dading County, while Wan Yaohuang and the 99th Division, which had already crossed Wujiang, also attacked Dading County. Under this circumstance, He Long led the main forces of the Red Second and Sixth Corps to evacuate from Daguxinchang. When he returned to Dading County, Hao Mengling Column, who had been in the north of Daguxinchang, took the opportunity to kill him. On February 17, the main forces of the Red Second and Sixth Legions returned to Dading. After Wan Yaohuang and Hao Mengling's troops met, they also launched a fierce attack on Dading. One day later, Dading was lost, and the second Red Army of was forced to retreat to Bijie.
lost two counties in a row, and the plan for the establishment of base areas in the Dabi area of Guizhou has become difficult to implement. The transfer took time, and the Red Second and Sixth Legions blocked the generals from Dading to Bijie. Xiao Ke led the 17th Red Division to the areas of General Mountain and Qijiatian Village. On the morning of February 19, the enemy approached Qijiatian Village from Dading along the highway. Shoke ordered the 50th and 51st Regiments to attack the movement's enemy from the east side of the highway, and the 49th Regiment penetrated from the west side of the highway, and soon destroyed the suicide squads of Wan Yaohuang, the six companies. After the battle, the 17th Red Division climbed General Mountain, built fortifications, and turned to defense. Wan Yaohuang hurried in Dading County and did not dare to advance rashly. Subsequently, Wan Yaohuang and Hao Mengling launched several attacks on the General Mountain position. But under the heroic resistance of the Red 17th Division, the enemy never managed to step over the General Mountain. The General Mountain blocking battle lasted until the 26th, and the main force of the Red Army had withdrawn from Bijie. After the blocking mission was completed, Xiao Ke led his troops to retreat to Bijie.
At this time, there were more and more enemies, reaching the scale of 120 regiments. Mr. He and the Political Commissar decided to withdraw from the Guizhou, Da and Bi base areas and transfer to the Anshun area in southern Guizhou.
Wumeng Mountain , Sichuan-Yunnan-Guizhou border on Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau , Weining branch county Deshengpo, ancient Yelang capital, Hanshui source, here, the mountains are high, the valley is deep, the peaks are standing, There is a lot of room for maneuver.
After the Red Second and Sixth Corps withdrew from the Guizhou, Da and Bi bases, they decided to transfer to the Anshun area in southern Guizhou. At this time, under the pursuit of strong enemies, if you want to successfully reach Anshun, you can only pass the Wild Horse River to the west and then turn to the southeast to penetrate the gaps of the enemy.
At this time, Chiang Kai-shek had three judgments on the operation routes of the Second and Sixth Corps: First, cross the Jinsha River north, go to Ganzi on the boundary of Sichuan and Tibet to join the Red Fourth Front Army; second, return to his hometown to the east Mulberry Zhixian ; the third is to fight guerrillas in the border areas of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan. According to this, Lao Chiang arranged three defense lines: in the north, Yang Sen and Li Jiayu's Sichuan army built the Jinsha River defense line; in the west, Yunnan Wang Longyun built the Wumeng Mountain defense line along the Yunnan-Guizhou border; in the east, there are the "five major groups of Jiang Jiang's non-direct lineages. The pursuit force composed of King Kong (a miscellaneous army incorporated by Lao Jiang halfway). Prevent the Red Second and Sixth Corps from turning southeast to Sangzhi County. Wan Yaohuang and Fan Songfu pursued along the north and south sides of the Bijie-Weining Highway; Hao Mengling took a detour to pursue the southwest; Guo Rudong's column pursued from Dading to Shuicheng. The Lijue Column pursued the Shuicheng from Zhijin County . There were about 100,000 people in the pursuit force. I wanted to drive the Red Second and Sixth Corps to the Jinshajiang Defense Zone of the Sichuan Army, and when the Red Army and the Sichuan Army fought to the death, they would "fight against each other, and the fisherman gained profits" and clean up the Red Army and the Sichuan Army.
The Red 26th Army crossed the Jinsha River north, facing the Sichuan Army blocked in front and the "Five Kings" chasing behind. The Red Second and Sixth Corps are now heading west to Yunnan, facing the Yunnan Army and the "Five Kings".
Red 2 and 6th legions neither heading north nor west, but instead play hide-and-seek with Lao Jiang at Deshengpo in Wumeng Mountains. makes the 100,000 troops of Lao Jiang Lao Jiang fall into an endless pursuit battle , until it is exhausted and collapsed.
After the Red Second and Sixth Corps arrived at the Wild Horse River, the famous Wild Horse River meeting was held on March 2. At this time, the road in the southeast had been cut off by Wan Yaohuang and Hao Mengling. So, the enemy changed and we changed. The Red Second and Sixth Legions continued to travel westward and rushed to the Magu area. After the Red Second and Sixth Corps arrived at the Magu area, Guo Rudong and Li Jue surrounded him, and the troops defending Weining in the Yunnan Army also blocked the road to the south. Force the Red Second and Sixth Army to cross the Jinsha River north and destroy our army along the Jinsha River. The Red Second and Sixth Legions adopted the plan and began their first revolving and turning, heading northwest towards Kuixiang, creating the illusion that the Red Army wanted to cross the Jinsha River.
As expected, Chiang Kai-shek thought that the Red Second and Sixth Corps were going to cross the Jinsha River north, so he hurriedly sent three columns of Fan Songfu, Wan Yaohuang and Hao Mengling to pursue the northwest. After the Red 2 and 6th Army arrived in Kuixiang, Yunnan, Fan Songfu had already arrived in Yizehe Village, Hezhen Township. Therefore, the 2nd and 6th Legions decided to send the 4th Division of the Second Legion and the 16th and 17th Divisions of the Sixth Legion to bring dry food, and set up an ambush to attack Fan Songfu, fifty miles away. In the battle of Yizehe, the Red Second and Sixth Corps annihilated a cavalry company and a reconnaissance company of Fan Songfu's 28th Division.

. The Red Second and Sixth Legions exposed their locations. So the Red 2 and Sixth Legions returned to Kuixiang, and then turned to the cattle farm in the northeast direction. The Red 2 and Sixth Legions looked like they were going to turn into Wumeng Mountain and continued to play hide-and-seek with Jiang. Halfway through, the Red Army captured two Wan Yaohuang's deserters and knew that Wan Yaohuang had arrived in the Zhezhuangba area and set a distance between other pursuing troops. Therefore, the Red Second and Sixth Legions decided to ambush Wan Yaohuang in the Zhezhuangba area.
12 , Red Army began to turn around toward the southwest and rushed towards Zhezhuangba.
At this time, Wan Yaohuang divided his troops into a brigade in the front and a brigade in the back, with Wan Yaohuang and the division headquarters walking in the middle. The brigade behind Wan Yaohuang was ambushed by the Red Second and Sixth Legions. Subsequently, the Second and Sixth Legions sent another unit to cut Wan Yaohuang's division headquarters and the subsequent brigade into two sections at Dayakou, Taoyuan.
When Wan Yaohuang hurriedly called the brigade in front to come for rescue, another ambush from the brigade in the second and sixth legions suddenly appeared in front, blocking the return passage of the brigade in front. After a fierce battle, the Second and Sixth Army killed more than 300 enemies and seized countless supplies. Wan Yaohuang ran away alone in the groom's clothes. In this battle, the Red Second and Sixth Legions defeated Wan Yaohuang's troops.
During the battle, Yu Qiuli, the political commissar of the 18th Regiment of the 6th Division of the Red Second Army, was seriously injured in the left arm.
After the Red Second and Sixth Legions defeated the Wan Yaohuang Column, Hao Mengling Column rushed to reinforce. The Red Second and Sixth Legions retreated out of the battle in time and continued to circumvent the Deshengpo Mountain Area.
The battle of the Red Second and Sixth Legions did not open the road to the south. The columns of Wan Yaohuang, Hao Mengling, Fan Songpu and other columns surrounded from all directions. The enemies gathered more and more, and the Red Second and Sixth Legions still did not relieve the danger.
When the Red 2nd and 6th legions were circling westward to attack the treasure god pond of Deshengpo, they met Guo Rudong's column, and the Li Jue column in the south also came over.
On the evening of March 13, the Red Second and Sixth Legions learned from the enemy's captives that the enemy's "five Great Kings" gathered around to build fortifications, and the Red Second and Sixth Legions could launch an attack from all directions at any time.
started to fight to Caishentang from Sangzhi, which was the most dangerous moment in the Long March of the Red Second and Sixth Legions. The location of the Red 2 and 6th Legions was at this time within a narrow encirclement of fifteen kilometers in the enemy's radius. After a long period of continuous combat, the troops were very tired and their mobility decreased, and it was almost impossible to fight the enemy to a decisive battle.
Life and death juncture, He Long encouraged everyone, "More than 10,000 people dragged more than 100,000 enemies around the mountains. We are tired, aren't the enemy very tired? Now is the time to compete for will, we just need to continue to maintain mobility, It can completely drag the enemy down.”
He Long ordered all officers and soldiers of the Red Second and Sixth Corps to throw away non-combat equipment and luggage and go into battle lightly to speed up the marching speed. The drafters were erected on the hills and red flags were planted in the deep mountains, making people look like there were ambushers from afar.
The Red Second and Sixth Legions sent feint attack troops to launch a restrained attack towards Wan Yaohuang in the east. The suspicious strategy of the army scared the enemy, and the Red Second and Sixth Legions decided to launch a breakthrough in time. The Red Second and Sixth Corps faced the enemy and took advantage of the darkness to rush out from the junction of Fan Songfu and Guo Rudong's column, and once again redirected to Kuixiang. It was not until two days later, on March 16 that the "Five Kings" discovered that there were straw men and red flags everywhere on the mountain, and they were caught in the suspicion of the Red Second and Sixth Legions.
Red 2nd and 6th Legions fought in Deshengpo County for 19 days, but they could not see the way out of the mountain. After arriving in Kuixiang area, they realized that it was their third time passing here.
On March 22, the Red Second and Sixth Corps arrived at Hutou Mountain in northeastern Yunnan to eliminate a group of Yunnan Army, and approached the county town of Xuanwei . At this time, the pursuit troops of the "Five Kings" were dragged dizzy, exhausted, and suffered heavy losses. They dared and were unable to pursue the Red Second and Sixth Legions and turned into the defensive.
After the Red Second and Sixth Army arrived in the Xuanwei area, they ate the famous Xuanwei ham and their physical strength was also restored.
Then, the Red Second and Sixth Corps rested in Pan County for three days, prepared some supplies, and supplemented hundreds of soldiers.
During this period, the Red Second and Sixth Corps received a telegram from the Red Fourth Front Army and decided to go north to Ganzi to meet with the Fourth Front Army. At this point, the Wumeng Mountain MRT battle, which lasted 23 days, ended successfully, and 19 days of fighting on Deshengpo, ended.
Original title: Chiang Kai-shek dispatched 120 regiments to encircle and suppress the Red Second and Sixth Legions. The victory was thrilling and the turning point of the battle.
