"The wind and rain in Zhongshan turned yellow, and millions of soldiers crossed the great river. The tiger and the dragon are better than the past, and the world is turned upside down and generous." These lines come from the famous poem "The People's Liberation Army Occupies Nanjing" written by Mao Zedong in April 1949.It not only describes the majestic momentum of the Chinese People's Liberation Army crossing the Yangtze River and capturing Nanjing, but also expresses the heroic and destructive steps of our army during the War of Liberation. The Chinese People's War of Liberation, which started in June 1946 and ended in May 1950, was the most significant war in the world after World War II.The vastness of the battlefield, the variety of combat forms, the frequent and fierce battles, and the huge input of manpower and material resources from both sides are unprecedented in Chinese history, and are also rare in the history of world wars.The victory of the People's Army led by the Communist Party of China in this war not only ended the history of a handful of exploiters ruling the working people in China, but also ended the history of imperialism and colonialism enslaving the people of all ethnic groups in China.It enabled the Chinese people, who accounted for 1/4 of all human beings, to be finally liberated, shockingly changed the balance of political forces in the world at that time, and had an extremely profound impact on the international situation at that time and the development of the revolutionary struggles of the people of the world.

In this vigorous and great war, some heroic troops and military figures with unique military exploits have also stood out.The Fourth Field Army of the Chinese People's Liberation Army is a unique military force among these heroic units. The Fourth Field Army was one of the main forces of our army at that time.After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, it gradually developed and expanded on the basis of the Eighth Route Army, the main force of the New Fourth Army and the Northeast Anti-Japanese Allied Forces.This is indeed a force from all corners of the country that has come together for a common ideal.In this team, some participated in the Pingjiang Uprising, went to Jinggangshan, went through the long Long March, and once showed their power at the dangerous Pingxing Pass; The most historic first shot; some followed Yang Jingyu in the snow-covered jungle, relying on grass roots and bark to persist in the long-term war of resistance; Production, and its advanced deeds were written into the song that is still sung around decades later - "Nanniwan"...

The era when Shino existed was the era when a major turning point occurred in Chinese history.The history of Siye is not only full of hardships, but also forged brilliant.Shino also has a deep historical imprint on the specific name.From its initial construction to its withdrawal from history, it has gone through several stages such as the Northeast People's Autonomous Army, the Northeast Democratic Coalition Army, the Northeast People's Liberation Army, the Northeast Field Army, and the Fourth Field Army. When the wheel of history turned to the second half of 1945, the Second World War that opened a deep wound in the memory of mankind finally came to an end on the land of China.The Soviet army sent troops to the Northeast, and American planes dropped two atomic bombs on the Japanese territory. The trauma of reality severely dampened the Japanese imperialists' ambition to dominate East Asia.The Chinese people ushered in the victory of the eight-year war of resistance.

However, the fruits of victory did not return to the hands of the people as a matter of course.Chiang Kai-shek, who has always received the full support of the United States, swung his sword to fight for it before the fruit fell to the ground.The Northeast, this black land that has suffered many hardships, has become an important goal of Chiang Kai-shek.If you monopolize the Northeast, you can attack the North and the South and wipe out the Communist Party in one fell swoop.For this purpose, Chiang Kai-shek, while wearing a mask, pretended to invite Mao Zedong to negotiate in Chongqing; while wielding knives and sticks, he actively moved troops from the rear to the north.At this critical moment, Mao Zedong, who had time to cleanse the dust of the Anti-Japanese War, immediately saw through Chiang Kai-shek's attempt and resolutely decided to send 110,000 people outside the customs to join Zhou Baozhong's Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance and establish the Northeast People's Autonomous Army with Lin Biao as the commander-in-chief.Shino thus embarked on the big stage of history.

In this vigorous liberation war, Siye was unique. From the severe cold of -40°C in the white mountains and black waters of the Northeast, to the extreme heat of Hainan in the extreme heat of 40°C, they successively moved to the battlefields of Northeast China, North China, Central China, and South China. Crossing the south of the Yangtze River, liberating central and southern China, taking Guangzhou lightly, sweeping Guangxi, and seizing Hainan Island, and other large-scale wars, fought with the Du Yuming, Chen Cheng, and Wei Lihuang Group of the Kuomintang Army in Northeast China, Fu Zuoyi Group in North China, Chongxi Group in Central China, and Yu Hanmou Group in South China. Fighting to the death, carrying out more than a hundred major battles, annihilating more than 1.88 million Kuomintang troops, and growing from 110,000 to 1.53 million.Siye not only independently completed the first of the three major campaigns - the Liaoshen Campaign, but also liberated the entire Northeast.Moreover, after that, he sent his army to the south, and with the cooperation of other brother troops, his heroic image flashed in most places on the land of China.In previous battles, Fan Hanjie, Deputy Commander of the Northeast "Suppression General" of the Kuomintang Army, Lieutenant General Liao Yaoxiang and Lu Junquan, Lieutenant General Commander of the Corps, Chen Changjie, Commander of Tianjin Garrison, Zheng Tingji, Wen Xiaoshan and other military-level generals were captured alive; , and successively sent dawn to Tanggu, Lianghu, Guangdong, Guangxi, Jiangxi, Henan and other places.In order to overthrow the Chiang Dynasty, win the victory of the National War of Liberation, and made outstanding contributions to the establishment and consolidation of the People's Republic of China, he made special contributions.

Of course, any military exploits are not easy to come by.Siye itself has paid a painful price of more than 280,000 casualties, of which more than 60,000 commanders and fighters (including artillery commander Zhu Rui and more than 300 cadres above the regiment) are buried among the green mountains and green waters.In this baptism of blood and fire, due to the bloody battles of the soldiers of the four fields, a large number of heroic combat groups famous in the whole army, such as the "Tashan Heroes Regiment", "Baitai Mountain Heroes Regiment", and "Crossing the Sea Pioneer Battalion", emerged successively. As well as thousands of heroes and role models, such as the "famous battle hero" Dong Cunrui, the "lone hero" Yang Zirong, and the "super hero" Liang Shiying, who sacrificed their lives to blow up the bunker.According to statistics, heroes at all levels in the Four Fields accounted for as high as 28.5% of the total number of troops they belonged to, and on average, 1 out of 4 people was honored with military exploits.

The achievements of Siye not only set an indelible revolutionary example for the whole army, but also cultivated countless combat talents.The Korean War broke out in June 1950 just after Shino completed the historical mission of liberating Hainan Island for the final battle.In October of the same year, Mao Zedong decided to carry out the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. The 42nd, 38th, 39th, 40th, 50th, and 47th Army of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, which originally belonged to the four fields, were incorporated into the Chinese People's Volunteers, and the first batch entered North Korea. .Their years of accumulated war experience and solidly established fighting spirit glowed with new brilliance on the new battlefield.

In September 1955, the Chinese People's Liberation Army implemented the military rank system for the first time. Until June 1965, when the military rank system was abolished, a total of 1,614 people were awarded the rank of major general or above, including 10 marshals, 10 generals, 57 generals, and There will be 177 people and 1360 major generals.Among these generals, there are 521 people who originally belonged to the four fields, including two marshals Lin Biao and Luo Ronghuan; three generals including Xiao Jinguang, Huang Kecheng, and Tan Zheng: Liu Yalou, Li Tianyou, Han Xianchu, etc.; , Liang Xingchu and other 57 lieutenant generals: 440 major generals including He Jinnian and Zeng Kelin.The proportion of Shino generals is close to 1/3 of the total number of generals in the country.This fact also shows from one aspect that Shino is a glorious fighting group with numerous talents.

In addition, it is also worth mentioning that Siye has made indelible contributions to the construction of China's multi-arms.Not to mention that Artillery Commander Zhu Rui began to devote himself to the construction of artillery teams and colleges as early as the end of the War of Resistance Against Japan. More than 1,900 people marched into Beijing to form the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy Command; Liu Yalou, commander of the 14th Corps, led more than 2,600 people from the Corps Headquarters to Beijing in August 1949 to establish the Chinese People's Liberation Army Air Force Command.

From the 100,000 troops at the beginning of advancing into the Northeast, to the rapid development of an army of one million, the road experienced by Siye is arduous, victorious, and heroic.It inherits and carries forward the glorious tradition of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, maintains the true nature of the Chinese People's Army to serve the people wholeheartedly, and implements the idea of ​​people's war.With the active support of the broad masses of the people, many battles were carried out. His great achievements are well-known both at home and abroad. He not only accumulated rich combat experience, but also made immortal contributions to the liberation of the Chinese people and the construction of the people's army.No matter how you look at it, Siye is worthy of being a heroic and outstanding force in the Chinese People's Liberation Army.The glorious history of the battle displayed by Shino is still cherished and praised by people to this day.
