(九)聂荣臻送我一匹老军马 8月3日,朱德率第九军(实际只有数百人)、蔡廷锴率第十一军第十师为先头部队离开南昌出征广东。4日,叶挺率第十一军的第二十四师和第二十五师也相继出发。同日,蔡廷锴率部4000余人叛逃,令整个起义部队震惊。我们在起义时已发现蔡廷锴政治不可靠,贺龙等人曾建议将其扣留或“礼送出境”,但叶挺过于相信他,前委领导也未作认真考虑,更为错误的是让他当开路先锋,使他有机可乘。蔡廷锴叛逃时,其兵力十倍于朱德所率之部,朱德当时也无力阻止该事件的发生。事后,叶挺对此十分内疚。 (Nine) Nie Rongzhen sent me an old veteran August 3, Zhu De rate ninth (actually only a few hundred), Tsai Ting-kai led the eleventh army tenth division as the first army left Nanchang expedition in Guangdong. On the 4th, the Twenty-fourth Division and the Twenty-fifth Division of the Eleventh Army at Ye Ting rate also set off one after another. On the same day, more than 4,000 people were defected by Cai Tingyi, shocking the entire uprising forces. At the time of the uprising, we found that Tsai Ting-tao was politically unreliable. He Long and others recommended that they be detained or “sent out for gifts and gifts.” However, Ye Ting was too much believed in him and the leader of the front committee did not seriously consider it. What was even more wrong was that he should be left open Pioneer, make him take advantage of. When Cai Tingxian defected, his troops were ten times as high as Zhu De’s, and Zhu De was powerless to stop the incident. Afterwards, Ye Ting is very guilty of this.
