In June+10, 5438, Chiang Kai-shek began to plan the first "encirclement and suppression" of the Red Army. On June 1 65438+1October1day, Wuhan Battalion ordered the enemy's Ninth Route Army to go to Gaogao, Gaoan, Fengcheng and Zhangshu from Jiangxi, and the Nineteenth Route Army entered Jiangxi from eastern Hunan in an attempt to destroy the Red Army in the Yuanshui River Basin.
According to the enemy's situation, the Red Army put forward the operational policy of "luring the enemy deeper and crossing the Ganjiang River eastward". At that time, some cadres and soldiers of the Red Third Army Corps didn't know enough about the strategic policy of luring the enemy in depth, and advocated that the Red Third Army Corps should not cross the Ganjiang River, fight against the Red Army, or go back to the Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi base areas to fight. In view of this misunderstanding, Deng Ping did ideological work seriously. Deng Ping pointed out: The Third Legion did not cross the river, and the first and third legions were caught in the river, resulting in scattered forces, which was not conducive to crushing the enemy's attack. He emphasized that the strategy of the Red Army should focus on the overall situation. Under the great pressure of the enemy, the Red Third Army Corps should not return to the base areas of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi. He has repeatedly pointed out that "luring the enemy into the depths and crossing the Ganjiang River eastward" and concentrating troops are of great strategic significance for crushing the enemy's "encirclement and suppression". After listening to Deng Ping's patient mobilization, the cadres and soldiers quickly unified their understanding. 165438+1In the middle of October, all the Red Third Army Corps crossed the Ganjiang River and fought side by side with the Red First Army Corps. 18 From February 30th to October 3rd, the following year18, he assisted Peng in commanding the Red Third Army Corps and joined forces with the Red First Army Corps and the brothers in the battles of Longgang and Dongshao. A total of15,000 people were wiped out, more than12,000 pieces of various weapons were seized, and Zhang Huizan, the enemy commander, was captured alive, and the first victory against "encirclement and suppression" was achieved. 193 1 year 65438+1early October, the headquarters of the Red Army informed Deng Ping, commander of the Fifth Army, and He Changgong, commander of the Eighth Army, to report to the headquarters of the Red Army.
In Xiaobu Village, Ningdu County, Jiangxi Province, Mao Zedong, secretary of the General Front Committee and political commissar, shook hands with the two men and said humorously, "Do you guess what's important for you to come this time?" Deng Ping said: "Or is it the training and rectification of our two armies?" However, Mao Zedong said, "Today, you two captains were specially dismissed. God will give you a great responsibility, and you have a great responsibility. " Mao Zedong also said that after the Red Army smashed the enemy's "encirclement and suppression" three times in a row, the Central Soviet Area and other base areas were consolidated and developed. The change from guerrilla warfare to mobile warfare requires a large number of cadres. Now, taking advantage of the favorable opportunity of wartime, we should strengthen the training of military cadres to cope with the increasingly complex struggle. Therefore, it is planned to establish a regular Red Army school in the Central Soviet Area, and it is planned to deploy two commanders, four teachers and a dozen heads and political commissars to run this school, so as to train the Red Army's own talents in running the army, building the army and leading troops to fight. Mao Zedong believes that Huangpu was in the Northern Expedition when the Kuomintang cooperated with the Communist Party, and it is necessary to set up a "Huangpu" now. Hearing this, Deng Ping and He Changgong happily accepted this important task. Deng Ping was appointed vice president and director of education of the Central Military Political School.
In the winter of the same year, the Central Military and Political School of the Red Army opened in Dongxie Minzong Temple in Ruijin County, Jiangxi Province. "Hongpu" has run six sessions, with more than 1 000 students in each session. Deng Ping used to be the headmaster of the Red Third Army Barracks School, and he has rich experience in running schools. During the "Hongpu" period, Deng Ping fully demonstrated his ability to run a school and made important contributions to the initial construction of the school and the training of outstanding military cadres of the Red Army. 1at the beginning of March, 932, Deng Ping was ordered to be transferred back to the Red Third Army Corps, and the Zhongge Military Commission appointed Deng Ping as the Chief of Staff of the Red Third Army Corps and the Commander of the Red Fifth Army Corps. Due to the wrong command of Bo Gu Kailai and Li De's "Left" dogmatism, the fifth counter-campaign against "encirclement and suppression" in the Central Soviet Area failed. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Central Red Army had to make a strategic shift. 1934+00 In June, the Red Army began its Long March. Assist Peng to command the commanders of the Red Third Army Corps as the right-wing avant-garde, and be responsible for covering the transfer of the central organs and the main force of the Central Red Army.
After the Zunyi meeting, the Red Army Corps withdrew from Zunyi area according to the deployment of the Central Military Commission, crossed Chishui and entered Gu Lin and xuyong county in Sichuan. Then, the troops moved eastward, crossed Chishui and arrived at Loushanguan. At this time, Guizhou warlord Wang Jialie led four regiments to control the Loushanguan-Zunyi line in an attempt to prevent the Red Army from returning to Zunyi. Deng Ping commanded the vanguard troops of the Red Sanjuntuan to attack Loushanguan. He personally went to the forefront of the troops, commanded the battle, and charged with the troops. In this way, the Red Sanjuntuan was in full swing and seized Zunyi New City and the villages on the edge of the city with one effort.
Zunyi City was then divided into new city and old city. The new town is in the east, without walls; The old city is in the west, with inner and outer walls and a river as the dividing line. 1On the morning of February 26th, 935, in order to capture the old city and win the overall victory of Zunyi Campaign, Peng was asked to follow the Red Eleven Regiment, which was an avant-garde mission, to ensure the victory of Zunyi again. At dusk on the 27th, Deng Ping, Zhang Aiping, the heads of the Red Eleven Regiment, and Lan Guoqing, the chief of staff of the Regiment, braved the enemy's bullets and came to the front position outside the north gate of Zunyi Old Town. After the troops were set up first, the three men hid in the grass on a small soil slope 50 meters away from the moat. They want to find a route that is convenient for the troops to advance, so as to launch a general attack when night falls. Lan Guoqing suggested transferring, but Deng Ping disagreed, saying it was easy to observe. At this moment, a little reporter touched him from behind, and Deng Ping confessed to him. The little soldier flew back at dusk, thus exposing the three of them. A row of bullets passed by, and Deng Ping died heroically at the age of 27.
After the founding of New China, with the help of local people, the people's government rediscovered the remains of Deng Ping martyrs and moved them to Phoenix Mountain, which was covered with pine and cypress and surrounded by green water. Peng personally revised his resume, and Zhang Aiping personally wrote an epitaph for the martyrs.
