Li Renlin's character story.

With the development of the struggle situation in northwest Hubei, in order to mobilize and disperse the enemy, cooperate with the anti-"clear-up" struggle within the base area, and solve the difficulties of sparsely populated and difficult recruitment in the mountainous areas of western Hubei; At the same time, in order to unify the leadership of the guerrillas who stayed in Dahongshan and Tongbaishan, the Central Plains Bureau telegraphed the Party Committee of Northwest Hubei on September 6, formally proposing to drive the 15th Brigade to southern Shaanxi and return to the second-column organizational system, pointing out that "it is beneficial for all the 15th Brigade to cross the Xianghe River and enter southern Shaanxi, but it is still necessary to retain certain armed forces and cadres to maintain their original work when moving. Later, the party Committee sent troops to Wudang Mountain to take over the tasks of the 15 th Brigade and reorganize the regional organs. " On September 8th, Zhongyuan Bureau telegraphed the Party Committee of Northwest Hubei again and reported it to the Central Committee. It is pointed out that "the mountainous area in western Hubei is vast and sparsely populated, so winter clothes cannot be solved, and this place is also very difficult." It is better to immediately transfer all fifteen brigades to southern Shaanxi, on the one hand, to solve the problems of supplies and clothing; On the one hand, it can strengthen the strength here. " You can also retreat some troops, cross the Xianghe River eastward, reach Dahongshan, and contact local forces to fight a new situation of Dahongshan. We suggest that Li Renlin lead a radio station and an army to come back. "On September 10, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China * * * resumed the Central Plains Bureau and the Party Committee of Northwest Hubei:" All the 15th Brigade will be transferred to southern Shaanxi, and another part will be sent to Dahongshan to contact local forces and develop the foundation of Dahongshan. In this way, western Hubei, central Hubei and southern Shaanxi became horns, containing a large part of Chiang Kai-shek's forces and helping North China, Central China and Northwest China smash the Kuomintang attack. This is your great strategic task. "

According to the instructions of the Central Committee and the Central Plains Bureau, the Party Committee of Northwest Hubei decided to transfer the 15th Brigade from northwest Hubei to southern Shaanxi to form the second column, and sent Li Renlin to lead a group of four companies, 1 guard platoon and 1 pistol team in Jianghan, and take a radio station to cross Xiangjiang River and return to Dahongshan, depending on the development of the struggle situation, to restore and develop Dahongshan and Tongbaishan base areas. In mid-September, Wang Haishan and Chen Xianrui led the third and sixth brigades of the northwest Hubei 15 brigade to set off from Wudang Mountain and cross the Hanshui River in the north. In late September, they entered southern Shaanxi and devoted themselves to the creation of the fifth army division in the Hubei, Henan and Shaanxi base areas. The ninth brigade left behind, led by Wang, Zeng Changhua, insisted on fighting in northwest Hubei and continued to be under the command of the Northwest Hubei Military Region. After the 15 Brigade was ordered to move to southern Shaanxi, the leaders of the 3rd Army Division of the Northwest Hubei Military Region were immediately adjusted, and Zhang was appointed as the commander and political commissar. On September 22, Li Renlin led troops from Guo Heping, south of Nanzhang, and pushed eastward. On the 23rd, it captured Zhongxiang Zhuan Douwan Ferry, annihilated more than 200 Kuomintang River Defense Brigade and township office, then crossed Xianghe under the cover of night, captured Fengle River, and then successively annihilated Zhangjiaji and Inn Slope in the northeast of Zhongxiang, Zhoujiafan Kuomintang township office and security team in the southwest of Jingshan. The Ministry met with the guerrillas led by Peng Youde at his home in Jingshanbei. The county (county) committee and government of Zhongjing (mountain) Zhongsui (township) were integrated and established in Zhangjia, with Li as the secretary and political commissar of the military region, Cheng Dunxiu as the county magistrate, Peng Youde as the commander of the military region, and 1 company as the backbone armed force to carry out guerrilla warfare. Later, in Liujiaji, southwest of Jingshan, he joined the guerrillas who insisted on the leadership of local struggle, and set up the Central * * * Beijing (Mountain) Central (Township) Working Committee as a secretary, leaving some armed forces behind and persisting in guerrilla warfare with the guerrillas in Dahongshan.

Li Renlin led his troops to cross the Xianghe River eastward and returned to Dahongshan, which hit the base area hard and caused extreme panic among the Kuomintang reactionaries. On the one hand, Zhou Yan mobilized 14 security corps and local security teams from Henan and Hubei to block dangerous roads (crossings) and strengthen Xianghe defense; On the one hand, the 66th Division 199 Brigade reorganized and pursued the troops into Zhongxiang area; At the same time, the new 15 brigade of the 72nd Division reorganized in eastern Hubei was transferred to Dahongshan and Tongbaishan areas to prevent blockages, in an attempt to annihilate the Ministry in Dahongshan and Tongbaishan areas. 12 In late February, the Kuomintang once again deployed a guerrilla detachment's "encirclement and suppression" on the Hubei-Henan border centered on Zaoyang. The 199 brigade launched an all-out attack from the southwest to Zaobei, while the new 15 brigade and the 5th, 18 brigade of Hubei Baoan launched an all-out attack from the southeast to the 1st 1 2nd regiment of Henan Baoan in an attempt to "encircle" the guerrilla detachment in the Hubei-Henan border region in Zaobei. On the evening of February 20, 65438, when the Ministry arrived near the northwest new town of Suixian County, it met the second squadron of the first security brigade of Suixian County of the Kuomintang, which collapsed at the touch of a button and defended its rescue. The next day, when he was near taoyuan village, he learned that Cao Yujing, the battalion chief of the Second Security Brigade of Suixian County of the Kuomintang, led the fifth and sixth squadrons to splash into the new town at night and joined the second squadron to "stop and suppress". Li Renlin decided to use the favorable terrain near taoyuan village to ambush and fight for half an hour. Cao Yujing was captured alive, more than 250 people were captured, more than 200 machine guns and more than 20,000 bullets were seized.

After the ambush in Taoyuan, the guerrilla detachment on the border between Hubei and Henan advanced to the south of Henan, crossed the main peak of Tongbai Mountain and turned to Tongbai and Biyang counties in the south of Henan to fight guerrilla warfare. When entering the Tianmu Mountain area, it was attacked by the Kuomintang Army New 15 Brigade and Xinyang Independent Regiment. Biyang security team is surrounded. After fierce fighting, the Ministry jumped out of the encirclement on February 27, 65438 and turned to the west. 65438+February 3 1 Day and night, when it arrived at Yangdang in the northwest of Zaoyang, it was attacked by the 1st199th Brigade of the Kuomintang Army. After fierce fighting, it dispersed and highlighted the encirclement, passed through Taiping and the new city, and turned to the north. After crossing the Yangtze River in the south, the guerrillas in the border area of Hubei and Henan successively destroyed the township offices of the Kuomintang Gongan County, such as Shachang, Zhoujiachang and Ganjiachang, and defeated the sniper of a security brigade in Gongan County. On June 24, 65438, they entered Zhangjiachang Town, Lixian County, Hunan Province. Later, a long-distance raid was carried out to advance to western Hunan and Hubei. On June 27th, 65438, he captured Wenshui Street in Shimen, Hunan Province, killed and wounded nearly 100 people in the first defense squadron of the Kuomintang, and seized 2 light machine guns and 18 rifles. The troops rested in Wenshui Street for two days, and the detachment held a meeting of cadres above the brigade level and decided to rename the troops "Jiangnan Guerrilla Detachment". On October 30th, 65438/KLOC-0, the Ministry entered Wanqing County, Wufeng County, Hubei Province via Liangping and Taiping Street, and advanced to Wuling Mountain, thus starting the guerrilla war on the border of Hunan and Hubei.
