() The Guangxi Army has five divisions; Li Xianzhou commands three, and Zhou Yan also has three. These forces have now concentrated in the western Anhui region. One division of the Guangxi Army has already crossed the Huai–Nan Railway to the east. Meanwhile, Tang Enbo’s nine divisions have been moving from Hubei into Henan for several days and have assembled at Nanyang; they will advance eastward shortly. It is estimated that all these units will be deployed by mid-next month to their respective assembly areas along the New Yellow River and the Huai–Nan Railway, from which they will launch an offensive against Peng Xuefeng and Zhang Yunyi. At that time, in addition to instructing Peng Xuefeng and Zhang Yunyi to sustain a guerrilla campaign to hold off the enemy in eastern Anhui and northern Jiangsu, our main force in northern Jiangsu must act to deal with Han Deqin. (2) It would be advantageous for the units in southern Anhui, together with the headquarters, to relocate to southern Jiangsu before we move against Han Deqin. Please report on the state of preparations and how many days will be required to complete the relocation. O().
