1935, a Red Army guerrillas advanced in the mountains and went to the designated location to attend the combat meeting. The soldiers of the Red Army did not expect that a safe combat conference would become a battle site. The guerrillas with more than 60 soldiers finally succeeded in breaking through. Every surviving warrior was muttering: Damn, the old leader, this traitor should be damned.
What happened at that time, why did the Red Army guerrillas suffer so much casualties? Who is this old leader? After investigation, the incident of the Red Army guerrillas was involved in a hidden incident, which was related to the internal secret letter sent to the Central Military Region a few days ago. The traitor's primary target is not the Red Army guerrillas, but the commander of the Central Military Region, Xiang Ying, and the director of the Central Government Office of the Chinese Soviet Union Chen Yi .
In October 1935, the Central Military Region received a secret letter from the Beishan area through an internal communication line. The secret letter pointed out that most of the bandits and the Kuomintang army have been counter-cleared, and Xiang Ying and Chen Yi urgently need to take charge of the situation to strengthen leadership to prevent the fall of southern Hunan. When Xiang Ying saw this secret letter, he wanted to pull Chen Yi to set off on the spot. Who sent the secret message
, and why can the Central Military Region trust so much? This also involves one person, that is Gong Chu. Gong Chu joined the Communist Party of China during the Great Revolution and participated in a lot of important military activities more directly during the Agrarian Revolution.
After the White Uprising, Gong Chu, Zhang Yunyi and Deng Xiaoping created Red Seventh Army . In 1931, the reorganized Red Seventh Army entered the southern Hunan region, breaking through the last obstacle to Jiangxi Central Soviet Area . After entering the Central Soviet Area, Gong Chu, chief of staff of the Red Seventh Army, was also valued by the Party.
1934, due to the failure of the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression operation, the main force of the Red Army in the Soviet area of the Communist Party of China had to immediately strategically transfer to avoid unnecessary losses from the main force. On the eve of the transfer, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China established the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and appointed Xiang Ying as secretary, and Chen Yi was also appointed as director of the Central Office of the Chinese Soviet Union.
Subsequently, the Central Military Commission established the Central Military Region, Xiang Ying served as commander and political commissar, and Gong Chu was appointed as the chief of staff of the Military Region, and can be said to be the second in command of the Central Military Region.
1935, Gong Chu led his troops to the southern Hunan area to contain the scattered Red 34th Division soldiers. In October of that year, Gong Chu suddenly sent a secret letter to the Central Military Region. This is what was mentioned earlier, a secret letter to invite Xiang Ying and Chen Yi to Nan Xiang to "strengthen leadership".
It is precisely because of Gong Chu's handwritten letter and the handwritten signature of the director of the rear of the Special Committee of the Communist Party of China that Xiang Yingcai believed in the secret letter, so he directly pulled Chen Yi to Xiangnan to take charge. Fortunately, Chen Yi refused to leave, pointing out that Gong Chu was arrogant and always arrogant, and could not be so humble. There must be fraud. He suggested that Xiang Ying wait a few days before setting off.
Fortunately, Xiang Ying was not impulsive, but followed Chen Yi's advice. Gong Chu had already betrayed and was afraid of being exposed after not receiving a reply from Xiang Ying and Chen Yi. So he decided to attack the Beishan guerrillas led by his old subordinate He Min, and set up an ambush for the Beishan guerrillas in the name of holding a meeting.
In fact, Gong Chu had already rebelled and surrendered to the enemy as early as the war in southern Hunan. Gong Chu, who could not withstand failure and had no confidence in the revolution, rebelled under the temptation of the Kuomintang. Gong Chu was the chief of staff of the Central Military Region at that time and was also known as the first rebel general of the Red Army.
