Chapter 393 9. 11 people captured the enemy and 1 regiment

In the battle to encircle and annihilate Li Wen's troops in Qionglai and Dayi, the 7th company of a certain unit of the 12th Army of the 3rd Corps achieved a brilliant record of capturing 1 regiment with 11 people.In this regard, Wen Xingwang, who served as a bugler in the company, recalled: After conquering Qionglai, we took advantage of the victory and rushed to Dayi overnight.The night was dark, the wind was biting cold, and there was a constant sound of sparse gunfire.Encouraged by the victory, the comrades forgot the exhaustion of the long-distance march and continuous fighting, and quickly intercepted the enemy who was trying to flee to Kham.

Arriving at the foot of Dayi city, it was already daylight, and people in Nanguan and the city neighed, crowded with enemies, and it was hard to tell how many troops the enemy had.We were originally a company, but the company commander, deputy company commander and some soldiers were all killed during the fight against Qionglai. In fact, there were only less than two platoons left. It is impossible to eat all the enemies in the city. , but can't let the enemy run away; the instructor decided to hit Nanguan first, hold the enemy, and wait for the follow-up troops to come up and wipe out the enemy.

The instructor ordered the 2nd platoon to block the road south of the city and cut off the enemy's escape route.He took the 1st and 3rd platoons to detour to the southwest of Nanguan, leaving a machine gun on a small grave on the way to confuse the enemy. When they arrived at Nanguan, they asked a platoon leader to lead a squad to blockade the enemies guarding the tower with firepower.Then, the instructor and the 3rd platoon deputy led the 9th class, including me, a total of 11 people, and rushed straight to Nanguan Street.All of a sudden, there was a lot of gunfire, and the enemy was frightened. They didn't expect the PLA to come so fast, and they couldn't figure out how many people there were. They only heard gunshots everywhere, thinking that they were being attacked from front and back, and ran all over the street in a panic. , ping-pong-pong shot in all directions.

When we rushed to a large temple, we first dealt with the enemies in the temple, and we continued to search the street.There are still many enemies on the street, but they all turn around with their heads covered, as if they have lost their souls.We were short of manpower and couldn't catch them, so the instructor shouted to the enemy: "You are surrounded, hand in your guns and don't kill, we will treat the prisoners leniently!" "Pay your gun and don't kill!" "Preferential treatment for prisoners!" We also shouted loudly. At this time, a guy in a yellow wool coat came out of a shop, his hat was on one side, his face was ashen, and he was holding a twenty-sound speed machine with the nose open. He looked like a mid-level enemy officer, and two people followed behind him. A soldier with a carbine came towards us and stopped 50 meters away from us. He looked at us suspiciously and said, "We are here to negotiate with your army!"

The instructor put a pistol in his waist, walked forward with two hand grenades pulled out of the string, and said to the officer in an orderly tone: "Drop your weapon and surrender immediately!" "I want to see the commander of your department." The guy said maliciously, looking at the instructor with sneaky eyes, observing the surrounding situation, and seemed to be trying to play some tricks.Our guns are all aimed at these three guys. If they are a little dishonest, they will be able to beat their heads into a rotten honeycomb. The instructor said to him categorically: "I am the commander here, be honest, or I will wipe you out immediately!"

Hearing what the instructor said, the guy panicked and said incoherently, "You...can you keep...our lives safe?" "As long as you put down your weapons and surrender honestly, you can save your lives, Be lenient; don’t you understand the People’s Liberation Army’s captive policy?” the instructor said in a reprimanding tone. "However, your army is still shooting..." "We will never stop attacking until you have officially handed over your guns. If you want to survive, you must surrender!" "Yes! Yes! I immediately ordered the troops to surrender. Excuse me, where should we gather?" The officer asked the instructor respectfully.

"It's on that field!" the instructor said, pointing to a paddy field. The officer agreed again with "Yes!" Then he turned to the two soldiers and said, "Go and convey my order to tell the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Battalions to gather here quickly." After that, he held the speed machine in both hands, handed over to the instructor. The instructor turned around and said to me: "Blow the horn: order the regiments to temporarily stop attacking and stand by for orders!" Then he said to a soldier beside him: "Guards, go and ask the 46th regiment to send some people to take the prisoners." I agreed: "Yes!" and ran to find the troops.

The officer stared at a pair of dead sheep eyes, watching the instructor command the troops with vigor.Listening to the tone of the instructor's speech, he was at least a cadre above the regiment, and he stood with his hands down, looking even more honest. I looked at his distraught look and couldn't help laughing with great difficulty.I stood on an earthen platform and blew the bugle vigorously. He thought I was blowing the call to stop the attack. In fact, I blew the horn over and over again. If I don’t call the troops quickly, how can I drive this A regiment of captives! I blew the trumpet twice more, and the enemy had also arrived at this time, but I still couldn't hear the answer signal, and the soldier who went to contact the follow-up troops didn't come back either.The instructor finished smoking, and there was a soft discussion among the enemy group. I saw a few guys with sneaky eyebrows, whispering furtively, and I don’t know what they were muttering. It seemed that they were not discussing good things. Every second is tense.

At this time, the instructor spoke to the enemy: "Brothers, you are willing to lay down your arms and no longer work for Chiang Kai-shek. We welcome you! The People's Liberation Army treats prisoners leniently, does not beat or scold, does not search pockets, and heals the wounded. The family's travel expenses..." When the instructor was speaking, everyone was very anxious. If the enemy saw that there were only a dozen of us, the situation would be unimaginable!I saw the comrades around, holding guns one by one, staring at each other, sweating profusely on their heads. As soon as I waited for the instructor's words to come to an end, I hurriedly raised the bugle and blew it again.At this time, I heard a weak trumpet sound from afar. I really couldn't believe my ears, thinking that I was in a trance, and I listened carefully. Yes, it was our trumpet sound. Although far away, it is very real.I blew it twice again and got an answer, so I can feel relieved now.

The instructor continued to talk for a while, asking them not to listen to the rumors and deceptions of the bad elements, and to report the die-hard reactionaries.About ten minutes later, the 3rd company came, and the team leader followed.The instructor reported the situation to the head of the regiment, and the head of the regiment ordered the enemy to hand over their guns and pile them aside, light and heavy machine guns, carbines, Tom-style, semi-automatic rifles, 60 guns, and 82 guns. Separate the enemy officers and soldiers for custody. The head of the regiment smiled and said to us: "Comrades! Your business is not bad! You only have 11 people and wiped out one regiment of the enemy!"

At this time, the enemy suddenly realized that the captured soldiers looked at us with surprise eyes, and some captured officers squinted and hated us a few times.However, it was too late to regret it, as we saw our army marching into Dayi City in great strength and mightiness.
