Chapter 20 Appendix III: Instructions, Reports, and Orders Related to the Battle of Qamdo

Mao Zedong's instructions to the Southwest Bureau on the occupation of Qamdo (August 26, 1950) Southwest Bureau, and reported to Northwest Bureau: Reported on August 20th. (1) Your plan to occupy Qamdo this year and try to retain 3,000 people to consolidate Qamdo is a good one. You can make active preparations according to this plan. When it is found that the road has been opened to Ganzi at the end of this month and the beginning of next month, you can start marching. Occupying Qamdo in October will be beneficial for fighting for political changes in Tibet and marching into Lhasa next year.

(2) ... If our army can occupy Qamdo in October, it may prompt the Tibetan delegation to come to Beijing to negotiate and seek a peaceful solution (of course there are other possibilities). ... (3) Thirty aircraft are in preparation, but it will take time, so don't rely on them in the short term. (4) 16,000 of you marched from Ganzi to Qamdo, all food was carried by troops and yaks, 3,000 of you must have food for the winter, and the main force of 13,000 who are going to withdraw must have at least three months to return As for grain, whether Ganzi has so much grain and whether the troops and yaks have such a large transportation capacity still needs to be investigated.

(5) It is possible to buy grain and meat in Changdu and other places. Have you prepared a batch of gold and silver and goods needed by Tibetans, such as silk tea, etc.? The Political Department of the Eighteenth Army's Instructions on Marching into Tibet for Political Work (June 6, 1950) During the mobilization of the army, after various conferences and repeated in-depth studies, they have made remarkable progress in all aspects. They have a deeper understanding of the significance of liberating Tibet and building Tibet. The idea of ​​individualism has been initially resolved, the political level of the troops has been improved, the enthusiasm of the troops has been stimulated, the efficiency has been enhanced, and the work has been improved. This is one aspect that should be seen.However, there is still insufficient understanding of the difficulty and long-term nature of liberating Tibet, and the emotions of enjoying life and fear of hardship and impatience still exist seriously.Therefore, we must not blur our understanding of the hardships of marching into political work, and relax our strong and active leadership in marching into political work.

The task of breaking into political work is daunting.Its basic purpose is to continuously improve the consciousness of the troops, so that all commanders and fighters have a firm will to march, a long-term construction idea, full of fighting emotions and the greatest determination to complete combat tasks, can correctly understand difficulties, have the courage to overcome them, and be able to achieve People and horses are healthy, take good care of food and equipment, and correctly implement the policy and strategy of liberating Tibet.And good at uniting the Tibetan people in the new area to successfully complete the glorious task of liberating Tibet.

In order to achieve this basic goal, Party committees and political organs at all levels must earnestly complete the three major tasks of advancing into political work: 1. Fully understand and overcome difficulties, save food, take good care of equipment, ensure that people are strong and horses are strong, and the will to march is firm. First: The biggest difficulty and worry in liberating Tibet is none other than that there is not enough food, equipment, and unhealthy men and horses who cannot withstand the long and arduous march.Therefore, saving food, caring for equipment, and paying attention to the health of people and horses have become the most important issues. Party committees and political organs at all levels must have a full understanding, must conduct special research, and formulate specific regulations so that the entire army pays attention to them and implement them earnestly. to obtain an effective guarantee.It is wrong to think that "there is nothing" and "the superiors will find their own way" to blindly rely on the superiors and not to protect the state's property, and they must be strictly prevented and corrected.

Second: Strict administrative management, strict reward and punishment system.Education is essential, as is discipline assurance.All relevant issues must be implemented in accordance with the regulations, and the head of the company and battalion must often check in person, and the reward and punishment system should be closely combined with the model creation and meritorious service campaign. Third: Emphasize that cadres love soldiers, care for the sick, and cadres lead by example in the most difficult times, and share weal and woe with soldiers. All remnants of warlordism that do not care about soldiers' warmth, hunger, food, and illness must be thoroughly corrected.Mules and horses should also be cared for, not to be overloaded, and opposed to using them alone. Always check the work of the breeders and ask for their opinions to improve the management of mules and horses.

Fourth: Pay attention to the investigation of eating diseases and customs in the new area?Use this to educate the troops and prevent diseases.It is also necessary to strengthen the leadership of the party committees at all levels over the health sector, improve the organization of the company's health fighters, and pay attention to their education. Fifth: Pay close attention to agencies and miscellaneous personnel, so that the units that are most likely to fail to comply with the regulations can comply with the regulations, and the places that are most likely to waste can avoid waste. Sixth: Actively participate in various construction work such as road construction, house building, land reclamation, and production to ensure transportation supplies and overcome difficulties. It is necessary to earnestly carry out mobilization education, improve labor concepts, and consolidate marching ideas.

2. Correctly implement policies and strategies, abide by the discipline of the new area and meet the Tibetan people, and establish long-term construction ideas.We must have sufficient estimates of the people in the new area, especially the Tibetan people, who do not understand the situation of our party and our army, and the isolation of the Han-Tibetan people caused by the great Han chauvinism in the past. should be placed in an important position. First: Strive to study policies and strategies in general before setting off, carefully study the four announcements, establish policy and strategy ideas, and oppose impatience and any ideological remnants of Han chauvinism.Main cadres must not only understand but also be able to master policy strategies.Ordinary cadres must understand policies. In the company, they can combine policy textbooks with marching manuals for education, and through policy learning combined with basic class education, they can overcome right deviation, fear of hardship, and impatience, and further establish construction ideas.In addition, all comrades in the army must learn a few sentences of the most applicable Tibetan, which are prerequisites for doing a good job in the new area and meeting Tibetans well.

Second: The entire army must be clear in concept that "Only by working hard and patiently can we have a deeper understanding of the customs and habits of the people in the new area and the Tibetan people; can we better unite the people in the new area and the Tibetan people." The phenomenon of relaxation of propaganda work due to different customs must be prevented in advance. Third: earnestly implement the three major disciplines and eight points of attention, respect the customs and habits of Tibetans and the people in the new area, help the masses to work, and safeguard the interests of the masses. Implemented after military approval.Facts have proved that it is extremely important to use our exemplary actions to unite the Tibetan people and the people in the new area. All ministries must pay attention to it. In terms of inspecting discipline and organizing mass work, the company's pro-democracy movement team and party discipline inspection committees at all levels must play their greatest role.

Fourth: The whole army must conduct propaganda in a planned and organized manner: do not let go of any opportunities that can be used, and this work should be listed as one of the contents of the party's internal reports. Fifth: For the local officials who receive our army in the Kham-Tibet area, we must pay attention to respect and unity, and there should be no discrimination. The captured Tibetan army personnel must be treated leniently, and no beatings, insults, divisions or regiments who are active alone are allowed. The agency must first report to the military for approval. 3. Establish a clear fighting concept, maintain a constant fighting mood, and successfully complete all combat tasks.

The British and American imperialists have instigated the Lhasa authorities, and are still actively preparing for military resistance against our army. On the road to liberating Tibet, we must have sufficient combat preparations, and completing combat tasks will be one of the important conditions for liberating Tibet.therefore: First: Overcome the paralysis of underestimating the enemy, oppose right-leaning to save lives, establish a clear concept of fighting, carry forward the heroic and tenacious fighting style of our army, always pay attention to understanding the situation, pay attention to combat mobilization, and make the troops always full of fighting emotions. We must prevent luck thinking, In order to avoid unnecessary losses. Second: In wartime political work, in addition to paying attention to general pre-war mobilization, combat organization, military democracy, calling for meritorious service, and educating the troops with the enemy's situation to improve their confidence in victory, special attention must be paid to battlefield discipline, captive policy, political offensive, Anti-spies on the battlefield, saving ammunition, etc., we must absolutely respect the personality of prisoners and strictly prevent retaliation. In order to accomplish the three major tasks of marching into political work, the following three main tasks must be carried out earnestly: 1. Strengthen the ideological leadership of the troops and thoroughly implement the marching mobilization. Learn more about the ideological changes of cadres and soldiers, investigate the situation of the masses in the new area more, in order to enrich the content of ideological leadership and continuous mobilization, and consciously focus on establishing the following basic ideas: First, the idea of ​​not being afraid of difficulties and being proud of being able to overcome difficulties.This requires various estimations and difficulties before marching. Apart from the ones that can be imagined, more necessary preparations must be made for unexpected difficulties. Superstitious and narrow experience, thinking that there is nothing special, paralyzing self-sufficiency and trying to get away with it is harmful. .After taking action, we must carry forward the glorious tradition of hard work of the Red Army, not afraid of difficulties, and have the courage to overcome difficulties: complaining when encountering some difficulties, discouragement, resentment, and hatred are also harmful, and mistakes must be corrected in time. Second, the idea of ​​building Tibet with the determination to build in the long run. …We must establish the idea of ​​long-term construction of Tibet that is extremely responsible to the Tibetan people and the cause of the revolution, and seek to build Tibet to a initially prosperous scale within a certain period of time. 2. Strengthen the leadership of party committees at all levels, train cadres, and reform leadership styles. First, conscientiously implement the instructions of the central government—train cadres, overcome bureaucracy and guerrilla leadership styles, and establish a leadership style of in-depth contact with the masses, careful investigation and research, and criticism and self-criticism.This work is carried out by summarizing the work at each stage and checking the leadership style of the party committee. Second, strengthen the leadership of the party committee, and always maintain the soundness of the party committee organization. The work of the party committee must be divided, planned, inspected, and summed up, so as to truly achieve the point of collective leadership. Third, it is necessary to consolidate the achievements of the branch building movement and further build the branch through various tasks. The general education of party members, the training of branch committees, team leaders and activists and the work of various departments within the construction branch committee, combined with the work of the center Conduct review, etc., as a regular work for future construction. Third, carry out a top-down campaign of solidarity and mutual assistance to create models and meritorious service. Marching into Tibet is a arduous task, and it is a great test for all commanders and organizations at all levels inside and outside the party. To better carry forward revolutionary heroism, establish righteousness, and overcome difficulties, we must further carry out the movement of solidarity and mutual assistance to create models and meritorious deeds. First, in this campaign of solidarity and mutual assistance, model creation and meritorious service, it is necessary to pay close attention to the two links of continuous scheduling of model units, cadres' meritorious service, and party members' meritorious service.A battalion creates two model companies, and when the battalion committee and battalion cadres play their leading roles, they will be given the honorable title of model battalion. The meritorious service of cadres is mainly to pay close attention to cadres above the company. In the past, many cadres believed that meritorious service was to encourage soldiers and lower-level cadres It is wrong to disdain meritorious service, and it should be corrected. The number of cadres who have made meritorious service, especially the number of cadres above the battalion, is also the ultimate indicator of whether party committees at all levels have a correct understanding of the meritorious movement. Good testimony. Second, the conditions for model units and individuals to make meritorious service: According to the experience of meritorious service in the past, the conditions for meritorious service should not be too specific. In fact, many new problems will arise during the course of action. In the future, meritorious service must be selected based on the level of the masses, and meritorious officials should not be judged by mechanical and specific conditions. Therefore, the following key points are proposed as the main direction of meritorious service for units and individuals. 1 Completion of combat tasks and work tasks. 2 Overcoming difficulties (including caring for materials, construction and production, etc.). 3. Implementation of policy discipline. 4 Solidarity and mutual aid in the health and consolidation of troops. 5 active troops cultural learning. Third, the reward and approval method: as in the past, the army awards battalion company and special merit, division award platoon and first-class merit, regiment award class and second-class merit, and battalion award third-class merit. The quality of the ideology is combined and evaluated, and the evaluation is completed and the award is made according to the work stage. The above is only based on the general regulations of the work. Within a certain period of time, the division can also award the model company, and the regiment can also award the model platoon. It can be implemented flexibly. The above are the three major tasks of advancing into political work and the three main tasks that must be carried out in order to accomplish these three major tasks.For example, it carried out company choreography and singing activities, vigorously organized marching writing to strengthen external publicity, and paid attention to the secrecy of espionage in the new area, exposed rumors in a timely manner, organized cadres to do a good job of containment, eliminated illiteracy, and strived to uphold the cultural and educational system, etc. In view of the characteristics that the troops will be quite scattered in the future and will inevitably discover many new situations after entering the Kham-Tibet area, we must attach importance to investigation and research, strengthen the reporting system, and oppose all unorganized and undisciplined phenomena.So far, no attention has been paid to asking for instructions and reports, and the phenomenon of disorganization and discipline still exists. Some units are even more serious. If there are problems, they do not ask for instructions and do not report. There are very few comprehensive reports on the ideological situation, work conditions and party committees of the troops. , In fact, it is a manifestation of refusal of leadership, which will make it impossible to implement the entire leadership intention, and cause serious and serious harm to the work. It must be corrected immediately. All future briefings and comprehensive reports must be delivered to the relevant departments on time, and there must be no violation , This is an important basis for improving work, timely correcting deviations and implementing leadership. Finally, party committees at all levels, leading cadres at all levels, especially political cadres, must have perseverance in their work and a work style of not complaining or complaining to their superiors, in-depth study of their subordinates, and diligent study in order to improve their work. The Basic Orders of the Chamdo Campaign of the Southwest Military Region (August 26, 1950) 1. The Tibetan army is currently using its main force of seven generations, located in the surrounding areas centered on Qamdo, actively preparing for war in an attempt to prevent us from liberating Tibet.The specific distribution includes more than 600 people in Qamdo, more than 500 people in Gangtuo, Tongpu, and Jiangda (west bank of the Jinsha River), and more than 300 people in Shengda in Qamdo and Dengkejian (more than 800 foreign militiamen) , there are about 2,000 people in Leiwuqi, Dingqing, and Qiongbo (northwest of Qamdo), about 500 people in Ningjing and Yanjing areas (more than 200 foreign militiamen), and about 3,000 militiamen are distributed in Bomi District As well as Endasi Luolongzong, Shuodu and other places and the fringe areas of Nangqian, a total of 8,000 troops including the militia have entered the Tibetan army, and the rest of the troops are distributed in Lhasa, Heisha, Shigatse, Gyantse and other places. 2. In order to annihilate the main force of the Tibetan army in Qamdo and the Nda and Leiwuqi areas to the east, occupy Qamdo, and lay the foundation for marching into Lhasa next year to liberate Tibet, I hereby decide: A. Three regiments of the 52nd Division led by the 18th Army, the Army Reconnaissance Battalion, the Artillery Battalion, and an engineering regiment of the Support Command, dispatched from the lines of Yulong, Dege, and Dengke to attack Qamdo and use the main force to detour To the west of Qamdo, cut off the enemy's retreat and annihilate them.The above-mentioned troops should be assembled at the Ganzi, Yulong, and Dengke lines in early September, and advance from this line in mid-September, striving to occupy Qamdo around October 10.In addition, a regiment of the 53rd Division will be dispatched by Ba'an at the same time to wipe out the enemies of Tranquility, and then attack Qamdo and cooperate with the 52nd Division to attack Qamdo. The detailed deployment will be drawn up by the 18th Army and reported to us. B. Use the powerful part of the 14th Army of Yunnan and the 18th Army to enter Qamdo at the same time, annihilate the enemy of Yanjing and control it, and make exact contact with the quiet troops of the 18th Army, and use another part to occupy and control Zhuwagen at the same time (between Kemai and Zayu). 3. It is suggested that the Northwest Military Region order the Yushu troops to contact the 52nd Division of the 18th Army and put them under the command of the division to strengthen the operations in Qamdo. The Eighteenth Army's report on the deployment of the Qamdo Campaign (September 11, 1950) 1. The Tibetan army has seven generations (more than 4,000 soldiers) and more than 3,000 militiamen, a total of about 8,000 people, deployed in the area around Qamdo. Gather two generations and more than 2,000 militiamen in Shengda and nearby areas in an attempt to prevent our army from marching from Dengke to Qamdo. 2. According to the current preparations for the march, we decided that the 52nd Division (with one battalion missing and a part of government and miscellaneous personnel) should be attached to the artillery battalion, reconnaissance battalion, engineer battalion, the artillery company of the 54th Division, the 157th Regiment of the 53rd Division and the 157th regiment of the 53rd Division. The division belongs to the artillery company, the branch division and the Qinghai cavalry detachment have 15,000 people, and there are five or seven mountain artillery, seatless artillery, 92 infantry artillery, and pursuit artillery. Counting) to carry out the task of occupying Qamdo, and it is scheduled for October (April).On the 2nd and 3rd, we will cross the river to gather and annihilate the enemies in Leiwuqi, Enda, and the area east of the Lancang River at predetermined positions. 3. The specific deployment is as follows: (1) The 1st Regiment of the Artillery Battalion of the Attached Army Artillery Battalion (1st Battalion and Miscellaneous Personnel Lacking a Battalion and Miscellaneous Personnel) was assembled in the Dengke area on September 30th. On October 2nd, the 154th Regiment should be attached to the division The artillery company crosses the river in secret, takes a shortcut from the outer wing of Shengda, and plunges directly into Leiwuqi and Enda with brave and quick movements. On the way, it should ignore the obstacles of a few enemies to attack, in order to quickly detour to Qamdo and cut off the enemy's retreat, and cooperate with the main force of the division to gather and wipe out the enemy. The army was in the Qamdo area, and the division led the artillery battalion of the 155th regiment and the 56th regiment (one battalion was missing). On the morning of October 3, it crossed the river from Dengke and took Qamdo directly by way of Shengda. (2) The Qinghai Cavalry Detachment, on October 4th (the more specific and appropriate time will be determined by the 52nd Division), dispatched from Yushu to attack Nangqian and Leiwuqi to ensure the safety of the right side of the 154th Regiment and quickly The movement actively cooperates with the 154th Regiment to wipe out the enemies in the Leiwuqi and Enda areas. If the 154th Regiment captures more than one enemy in Leiwuqi and destroys them alone, the Qinghai Cavalry Branch should come from the outer wing of Leiwuqi (West side) Detour and advance to Enda to break the enemy's retreat. (3) The Army Reconnaissance Battalion and the Artillery Company of the Fifth Fourth Division attached to the Engineer Battalion were under the unified command of Su Xiangqing, commander of the reconnaissance battalion, and Wang Daxuan, director of the Army's Direct Political Department. At noon on October 3, we crossed the river from Gangtuo to attack the enemies of Tongpu and Jiangda, in order to seize the enemies in this area and cooperate with the 52nd Division to annihilate the main force of the enemies in the Qamdo area. The above-mentioned departments were unified under the command of the 52nd Division . (4) The Artillery Company and the 157th Regiment led by the former 5th and 3rd Division assembled in Pa'an and its surrounding areas on September 30. On the evening of October 2, two battalions were lightly armed from Pa'an North Songwaka Smuggled people near the United States, went straight to the west of Tranquility, and cut off the enemy's retreat. On the morning of October 3, a battalion crossed the river from Niugudu and Zhubalong to attack Tranquility. Go forward and cooperate with the main force of the Fifth Division. 4. We suggest that the military command the 126th Regiment of Yunnan should attack Yanjing on October 2. In addition to capturing Yanjing, it should prevent the enemy from fleeing to Chayu. 5. In order to facilitate reconnaissance and grasp the enemy's depth situation, the army command position is planned to be temporarily located in Ganzi. If the above is not deployed, please review the instructions. Southwest Military Region's report to the Military Commission on the 18th Army's advance into Qamdo (October 1, 1950) Now we will enter Qamdo recent situation, the comprehensive report is as follows: (1) The 52nd Division of the 18th Army (less than one battalion), the attached reconnaissance battalion, the artillery battalion, and a logistics regiment all assembled in Ganzi on September 16, and marched westward from September 22. On the 26th, the vanguard arrived in the west of Ganzi Songlinkou, which is more than 150 miles away, has its main force stationed at the Baili and Rongba branch lines, and continues to advance westward.Due to the failure of the Ganzi-Kangding section of the road, the food was delivered in time and the 52nd Division had been building a road west of Ganzi for three days. It was no longer possible to gather in the Dengke and Dege areas as planned, so it was decided to change the date to October 7. The main force of the 57th Regiment, one of the 53rd Divisions, began to cross the Jinsha River to the west. On September 11, the main force of the 57th Regiment marched westward from Kangding.The 14th Army in Yunnan plans to use one battalion to capture Mengong and Bitu (northwest of Deqin) on October 7, and send one battalion out of Zhayi (four days northwest of Bitu), and another four companies to march northward from Deqin. Cooperate with the troops marching northward from Bitu to attack the salt well. (2) All the quilts and clothing required for marching troops, except for a fur coat which is being produced, the rest of the fur coats and cotton coats have all been distributed. On the 27th, there were 2 million catties of food in Ganzi and the areas west of it (including rice substitute powder, biscuits, and egg yolk wax), which can supply the troops for one and a half months.In order to avoid some difficulties in marching next year, it is planned that after the Battle of Qamdo, the troops that have entered the Kham-Tibet area (the 18th Army and supporting troops totaling about 20,000 people and 3,000 livestock) will stay in Qamdo (3,000 people), Ganzi , Ba'an and the west of Erlang Mountain, so that they can get used to life in the Kham-Tibet area, build roads and airports, and carry out training and other work.For this reason, 10 million catties of grain and materials still need to be transported ahead. With the existing vehicles, we can try our best to transport them until the end of November. We can strive to send 7.2 million catties forward, and the remaining 2.8 million catties are planned to be airdropped to Ganzi. Subsidies for the purchase of grain and yaks in Qamdo area. (3) The Ganzi Zhuqing section of the road began to be repaired by an engineering group in early September. Until the 26th, the small jeep has passed through Yulong, and it can be opened to Haizi Mountain in the southeast of Zhuqing in early October. From Haizi Mountain to the west of the Jinsha River, it will be transported by yaks .Now the Yulong Dengke line has collected 5,000 yaks for use. (4) It has been raining continuously since September along the Yagan route. From Kangding to Ganzi, the grassland roadbed is mostly weak, and the drainage facilities on both sides are also poor. A large amount of rain has accumulated on the road surface, causing several sections to become depressed areas, and the most serious one is Daofu. In the south, Luanshigang Ekou Tagong Temple and the fourth section of Dongeruo in the northwest of Yingguanzhai (about 12 kilometers in total) are muddy up to one meter deep. Cars are often blocked, and the fuel consumption per mile and a half is as high as four. Gallon, the mechanical parts were seriously damaged. Originally, the journey from Kangding to Daofu was one and a half days. Due to the above reasons, it was delayed to four and a half days, which had a great impact on the march and transportation.After the engineering troops went all out to drive the track piles and rush to build the dry bridge, they could barely pass through, but it took three days.This section of water and grass land could have been detoured along the highland road to avoid car traps, but it was time-consuming and labor-intensive because of the rush to build it straight. Order of the 52nd Division of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (Kang Zhan No. 3) (October 4, 1950) (1) Situation; see Qingzi No. 5 circular for details. (2) The basic order of the No. 2 Battle of Jikang Zhanzi, our division decided to start at 7:00 a.m. on the 6th of this (October) from Deng Ke to cross the river, carry out the liberation of Qamdo, and gather and annihilate the main force of the Tibetan army in the east of the Lancang River and Enda, Tasks in Leiwuqi area.The specific deployment is as follows: A. Right——This route is composed of Qinghai Cavalry Branch, Division Cavalry Reconnaissance Company, and 154th Regiment. It is under the command of Deputy Political Commissar Yin and Chief of Staff Li. It is a powerful force on the right wing of our division's Qamdo Battle. The two types of cavalry can cooperate closely, learn from each other's strengths, and quickly achieve a roundabout encirclement of the entire position of Galon and Lalu, which is convenient for the troops in the middle to divide and intersperse to encircle and wipe out the enemy.Whether we can wipe out more than three generations of the enemy's troops will lay a good foundation for marching into Lhasa next year and liberating the whole of Tibet. , based on the decision: Qinghai Qizhi (attached to the division cavalry reconnaissance company, the artillery company of the 154th regiment - a platoon with two recoilless guns) set off from Yushu on the 9th, and took the seven-day itinerary via Nangqian, passing through Nangqian Temple, Zhiya, Duozangka first encircled the enemy in Leiwuqi, and if he could wipe it out according to his own strength and situation, he would hand it over to the 154th Regiment for disposal (if the enemy escapes, the detachment has a task of chasing and destroying it within a day's schedule), and then went straight to Enda , Break the enemy's retreat from Changdu to Taizhao Road, and block the enemy's reinforcements. ——The May Fourth Regiment crossed the river from Deng Ke on the 6th, and detoured to Batang, 50 miles south of Yushu, on a 20-day itinerary. , and then wipe out the enemy in Leiwuqi. After the enemy is wiped out, a battalion of troops (and a shelter) will be left there to cut off the enemy's retreat from Qamdo to Heihe, and then the main force will go straight to Enda. B. Central route: It is composed of the 155th Regiment, 156th Regiment, Army Artillery Battalion, and Division Straight. It is directly under the command of the division. Its main task is to divide and intersperse the positions of Galon and Lalu, and destroy each combat), and finally gathered and annihilated the main force of the Tibetan army in the Qamdo area.Based on the decision: The 155th Regiment crossed the river from Dengke at 7:00 a.m. on the 8th, marched around Guode via Kazesongduo to Yayaosongduo, detoured to the south of Shengda with a battalion, and cooperated with the 156th Regiment to wipe out Shengda, Jiakasongduo, the enemy on the line of Guode, after completing the task, continue to advance directly to Dongdongzhuka, and its main force passes through Maojing to the branch road. One battalion quickly grabs the bridge of Mianda, and the other battalion rushes south along Jiangxigou The Kiangsi Bridge and the Detang Gongba Bridge are used to ensure the passage of the main force and to encircle the fleeing enemies in Shengda.After completing the task, the battalion should quickly cross the Zhaqu River, control the river bank and ferry west of Dongdong Zhuka, and support the main force of the regiment to cross the river. After the whole regiment meets, it will take Niuchang (southwest of Dongdong Zhuka) and go south along the mountains north of Qamdo , Take Qamdo directly. The 156th Regiment (with one battalion attached to the Artillery Battalion missing) crossed the river from Deng Ke on the 10th, took a shortcut and went straight to Shengda, and sent a small force to detour to the south of Shengda, and together with the 55th Regiment wiped out the enemy defending Shengda (three Tuan Mouxia's Division), and then seize Sichuan Bridge (the outskirts of Qamdo) via Yiquka and Dulandu, and then attack Qamdo. During the advance, we should always pay attention to encircling and annihilating the enemies fleeing westward along the Jinsha River, and pay attention to working with workers, Contact the two battalions.
