Chapter 13 Chapter 12 Attack on Guangzhou Huangsha Station

In October 1949, the People's Republic of China was established!The time has come for the Chinese people to feel proud! The Chinese People's Liberation Army, as brave as a soldier, quickly crossed the Dayu Mountains at the junction of Jiangxi and Guangdong provinces, and went straight to Guangzhou, the last nest of the Kuomintang on the mainland. Guangzhou is an important city in the south.When Nanjing was about to be liberated, the Kuomintang government moved to Guangzhou in an attempt to use this as a base to preserve its power, linger on and make a comeback.Taking a step back, there are still Hong Kong and Taiwan to escape.Only by liberating Guangzhou can we completely wipe out the remnants of the Kuomintang in the mainland and liberate the whole of China.

Our army carried forward the spirit of continuous combat without fear of fatigue. After a few days of rapid march, it captured Huaxian near Guangzhou in one fell swoop and opened the door to victory in Guangzhou. On the evening of October 14, my vanguard entered Shahe, Guangzhou.The Kuomintang reactionaries were defeated like a bird in shock. The enemies on Shahe Street had already shrunk to the city of Guangzhou, leaving only a handful of policemen.Seeing that the general situation was over, they had to take the initiative to surrender to our army. A policeman said: "Some enemies are preparing to flee southward across the Pearl River from Huangsha Station in Guangzhou."

After learning of this situation, we immediately reported to the head of the battalion and regiment. The head of the regiment ordered our avant-garde troops to advance lightly, go straight into the yellow sand, and resolutely block the enemy's retreat. Our company is a vanguard company.A surrendered policeman led us along the way, and we ran all the way forward. After more than an hour, the platoon (first row) of my company arrived at a bridgehead near Huangsha Station (a little past the current Nanfang Building). The enemy guarding the bridge spotted my platoon and asked loudly, "Who is it?"

"Password!" While we asked the police to talk to them, we dispersed the troops, occupied favorable terrain, and deployed firepower. With an order, we launched an attack on the bridge, and gunshots rang out. The enemies entrenched in the buildings, bunkers, and bridgehead fortifications were frightened by the sudden gunshots, screaming, crying, and gunshots rang out, and they panicked and fired blindly. Before the enemy had time to deploy firepower, we suppressed the enemy's firepower with light and heavy machine guns.I launched a platoon to attack the bridge head. When I attacked near the bridge head, a series of bullets shot out from the bunker on the right side of the bridge. Unfortunately, the deputy platoon leader died, and the platoon leader was injured. Three comrades from the second squad died. Several comrades were wounded.

The company commander immediately called the second platoon leader Zhang Yongfu (Zhang Yongfu was a special hero and combat hero who attacked Tianjin) and Lu Xiangyun to his front and said: "I order you to blow up the firepower of the enemy's bridge head. After breaking through, quickly expand the battle results in the direction of Huangsha Zhujiang Wharf The third platoon returned to Huangsha Station from another street to cooperate with the attack, and some comrades in the first platoon formed the second echelon." After deployment, the battalion's heavy machine guns and company's light machine guns violently fired at the enemy's bridgehead and the firepower points in nearby buildings.The eighth squad leader, Tan Shixin, and the soldier, Zhao Buyuan, and other three comrades, carried the explosive packs and used the house wall as a cover to blast continuously.

Squad leader Tan held the explosive package, jumped up, rushed to the enemy bunker in a few strides, pressed the explosive package against the weak point, ignited the fuse, and quickly moved to a safe place.Just hearing a loud "boom", several enemies went to the west together with the bunker. Comrade Zhao Buyuan took advantage of the moment of the explosion and quickly rushed across the bridge under the cover of the smoke screen. When he was about to blast, he found that several enemy firepower points were shooting at us more than 20 meters to the right of the building. The threat was great, so he blew up the firepower point first.

The enemies entrenched in the building were afraid that they would suffer the same fate, so they immediately became a mess and fled downstairs to the riverside, trying to escape across the south of the Yangtze River. At this time, the platoon leader Zhang Yongfu issued a charge signal, and I led the seventh squad to launch a charge, broke through the enemy's defensive positions, and occupied the intersection of the streets. Comrades from the blasting team rushed to the front.Suddenly, another string of bullets was fired from the front, and a soldier was wounded in his left arm. We then used the wall pillars in the corridor as cover.I saw a Kuomintang commander about a few meters away who was seriously injured and still struggling for death.He also saw me and shot me, but I dodged and missed.I rushed in front of him and shouted: "Hand in the gun!" He was very stubborn and fired a second shot at me. The gun didn't go off because there was no bullet.I kicked the gun off his hand and kicked him hard.He was seriously injured, and with such a kick from me, he died.

At this time, a burst of flames came from the Pearl River in front of the left.Suddenly, flares appeared in the sky. From the flashes of the flares, I found a long convoy lined up on the right side of the road, and there were enemy activities under the cars.I guessed that the enemy might counterattack us, so I immediately sent Lu Jinkui, a soldier of the Seventh Squad, to report to the platoon leader, and placed the shooters of 4 light machine guns and 18 submachine guns in the platoon on the favorable terrain of corridors, doors, windows, and corners to prepare for the enemy's counterattack .I turned the body of the enemy officer horizontally as a support for shooting.As expected, the enemy under the car crawled towards my position, and I passed the password: "Calm down, listen to the command." I wanted to wait for the enemy to climb a little closer and get out of the car, and then let all the weapons open fire at the same time. The enemy is killed, so that the enemies behind are blocked by the car and cannot get out.

The soldiers understood my intention and got ready, waiting for an order.Annihilate the enemy before the position.Under the urging of the death squad, the enemy who is afraid of death slowly crawls like a turtle in the shadow of the car.When the enemy was about to crawl out from under the car, I yelled: "Fight!" Immediately, light machine guns, submachine guns, and rifles fired at the enemy and beat the enemy severely. The enemy in front all lay down under the car. Crying father and mother calling for help.The enemy counterattacked for the first time and was defeated in just one minute.

The cunning enemy, seeing that the counterattack from under the car suffered a disastrous defeat, organized about a company of troops to counterattack us from both ends of the car, trying to attack our platoon from both wings.We know that the enemy will not let it go, so we have seen through their plot long ago. The enemy was driven out from the wings like a flock, only a few dozen meters away from us.Suddenly, a small trumpet sounded, which was the signal for the platoon leader Zhang Yongfu to tell his comrades to resolutely resist the enemy's counterattack. According to the signal of the platoon leader, I commanded the seventh and eighth squads: "Concentrate your firepower and shoot at the enemy!" The grenades thrown by the soldiers blossomed in the enemy group, and the enemy was in a panic.

"Squad 7 attack!" I ordered. The soldiers of the Seventh Squad shouted: "Rush! Kill!" and rushed towards the enemy.The enemy fled back in a hurry.We took advantage of the victory to pursue, but were suddenly shot by the enemy, some comrades were injured, and the deputy squad leader of the seventh squad and a soldier died.However, the platoon leader and some injured comrades still insisted on fighting, and their morale was very strong. The enemy's continuous counterattacks failed, and they became angry from embarrassment.On the one hand, they concentrated their firepower to shoot at me, blocking my way forward; on the other hand, they collected the remnants of defeated soldiers again, preparing for the third counterattack. This time the battle was more intense and cruel than the previous two.After a stalemate for a while, they finally engaged in street fighting.The fortified battle is our army's specialty. The 127th Division once awarded the "Fortified Tiger" unit. No matter how strong the enemy's fortress is, we can break through it. At this time, the third platoon of the brother troops and my company had already returned to the side of the Huangsha station, and the sound was fired behind the enemy's buttocks, causing the enemy to be attacked on the back and the head, but not the tail.The enemy jumped over the wall in a hurry, and with the strength of two platoons, they used fierce firepower to cover and counterattacked my platoon again. In the face of the enemy's crazy counterattack, everyone has only one heart: stick to the position and avenge the deputy squad leader of the seventh squad.In fact, when the enemy saw the corpses on the road and under the cars, they would have been terrified and had no fighting spirit.However, under the intimidation of the enemy officer, they had to move forward tremblingly.When the enemy was 20 or 30 meters away from our position, "Fire!" I gave an order, and the long and short guns fired at the enemy. Also run away.The soldiers fled for their lives like a swarm of bees. Our machine gun squad leader picked up the machine gun and shouted: "You son of a bitch, let's see where you are going!" He shouted and fired at the enemy.I saw that the enemy officer fell on the road like a mangy dog ​​and remained motionless.The enemy's third counterattack was defeated by us again, and the battlefield was temporarily quiet. After a while, a man appeared on the battlefield, and he swaggered towards my position. I asked: "Who?" "It's one of our own." I thought to myself: "The enemy dare not come out alone, he is really his own." Who knows, this guy ran to a place only about 2 meters away from us, suddenly picked up his submachine gun, fired a round of bullets at us, and then ran away.It turned out that he was pretending to be our enemy. In this sneak attack, two of our soldiers died and five soldiers were injured.Eat a pit, gain a wisdom, I guess the enemy will take advantage of it, and will come again. My name is: "Shuai Ziqing." "arrive!" "This task is entrusted to you!" He is a special shooter. After more than ten minutes, another black shadow moved towards us not far from the position.I said, "Get ready to shoot and keep an eye on the target." This guy was very close. I suddenly asked: "What are you doing?" He added, "It's one of our own." I signaled Shuai Ziqing to kill him, Shuaizi Qingzhen is indeed a top shooter, only heard a "huh" gunshot, this guy fell on his back and never got up again.The enemy dare not come again. In this way, my platoon repelled the enemy's eight counterattacks again and again, killing more than 80 enemies, including 4 officers of the company platoon, and wounding many people (this is from cleaning the battlefield after the battle).Thus, it was ensured that the three platoons of the brotherly company and our company would circle back to the enemy's rear and encircle and annihilate one regiment of the enemy.Among them, the third platoon of our company disintegrated a battalion of the enemy by promoting the captive policy and conducting political offensives. During the whole battle, my platoon sacrificed 6 people, more than 20 people were injured, and only 11 people were not injured.At a small price, we won the victory of conquering Huangsha Station in Guangzhou. The battle ended in the early morning of October 15th, and we were praised by our superiors. October 12, 1949. That night, there were no clouds in the sky, scattered with scattered stars, the moon was bright, and shed a light silver light, which looked solemn and peaceful.The weather was cool and breezy with an earthy aroma.This is the first time we have encountered such pleasant weather since we entered Guangdong. As soon as 9:00 p.m. arrived, we assembled our team and left Hua County to head for Xinshi. We are about to approach the enemy. When marching, we are not allowed to speak loudly, we are not allowed to smoke, and we are not allowed to carry guns on our backs. We should carry the guns on our shoulders or hold them in our hands. From Hua County to Xinshi, there is a large Guanghua Highway in one fell swoop.But for combat needs, we did not take roads or field trails.The Tianwen Trail is very difficult to walk, and the canals are criss-crossed. Many soldiers accidentally stepped into the paddy fields, making their shoes full of mud and water. At dawn on the 13th, we arrived in Xinshi.Xinshi is a small town in the northern suburbs of Guangzhou, less than 10 kilometers away from Guangzhou.When we arrived, the enemy had already run away, and the whole town was silent. After dawn, the whole battalion arrived one after another. The battalion headquarters decided that our company should stay in Xinshi, and the other brother companies would disperse and hide in neighboring villages or woods, waiting for orders to attack the enemy in Guangzhou. After breakfast, we gathered at the battalion headquarters, which was set up in a small temple, and we studied the specific attack routes.The first attack target was an enemy stronghold on an unnamed hill to the west of Baiyun Mountain.This stronghold has a chain of bunkers and traffic trenches. From the point of view of the terrain, this place is good for defense. The other side of the mountain is the Dengfeng Road entering the urban area of ​​Guangzhou.After unplugging this stronghold, the second goal is the eastern section of Yuexiu. After conquering this area, they will enter the urban area of ​​Guangzhou.This is only the offensive line of our battalion in the battle of liberating Guangzhou.Many other brother troops will also attack Guangzhou from different directions at the same time.Comrade Anton, chief of staff of the division, political commissar Li and chief of staff of the regiment headquarters also came to participate in the study of the offensive line. Political Commissar Li said: "It is an honor for us to be the vanguard of the liberation of Guangzhou." He also instructed, "We must pay attention to the art of command, and we must achieve the greatest victory at the smallest cost." "Thank you for your encouragement and instructions!" "We promise to complete the glorious task of liberating Guangzhou and plant the red flag of victory on Yuexiu Mountain!" After studying the offensive route, the company commanders, instructors and battalion commanders walked out of Xinshi together to observe the terrain two kilometers away. The long-famous Baiyun Mountain is right in front of our eyes.Although this mountain has been destroyed and devastated by the reactionaries, it still looks majestic and majestic against the blue sky. We stood in a papaya field and looked at the terrain leading to Baiyun Mountain. After repeated comparisons and discussions, we finally determined the attack route. At this time, we can still clearly see the enemy walking in the traffic trench with binoculars. Our company is the main attack force. After viewing the terrain, we immediately called a meeting with the platoon leader and squad leader to make battle arrangements.According to the specific strength of the platoon, the third platoon is determined to be the main attack, the second platoon is ready, and the first platoon attacks from the small hill on the right.The chief of staff of the regiment also participated in the combat deployment of our company and gave us many detailed instructions. It's time to fight for the liberation of Guangzhou. At 6 o'clock in the evening on the 13th, we left Xinshi and went into battle according to the offensive route determined during the day.We hadn't walked far when there was a loud noise from the direction of Guangzhou. We thought: This is the enemy's sabotage, but we didn't expect it to be the Haizhu Bridge. When the news came, we were all very sad.If we run faster and liberate Guangzhou one day earlier, the enemy may not have time to destroy the Haizhu Bridge, and the people of Guangzhou may have one less disaster. However, no matter how the Kuomintang reactionaries destroy it, even if they blow up the Haizhu Bridge.It can't save the fate of extinction.The sound of the Haizhu Bridge being blown up just announced that the Kuomintang reactionaries would be expelled from Guangzhou forever, ending the criminal rule in Guangzhou forever. "Accelerate combat operations!" With great anger, we quickly approached the enemy stronghold.When the third platoon reached more than 200 meters away from the enemy bunker, the enemy panicked and shot at us. First a bunker hit us, followed by all the bunkers ringing, and they kept sending signal flares. "It's so lively." But the enemy completely exposed their firepower. While the enemy was fighting blindly, the third row had crawled to a place only more than 100 meters away from the enemy.At this time, I only heard a shout: "Hit!" Light machine guns and heavy machine guns fired at the enemy together, and the tracer bullets dragged their long tails and rushed straight to the firing holes of the enemy's bunker.The enemy's gunshots suddenly fell silent, and we stopped shooting. A few seconds ago, the wilderness, where there were repeated gunshots, suddenly became silent.After stopping for a while, there was still no movement.In the dark night, we couldn't see the enemy's situation clearly, so we had to use firepower to test. "Heavy machine guns fire!" There was a burst of fire, and then stopped, but there was still no movement. What kind of new tactics the enemy wants to come up with is temporarily unpredictable. At this time, the seventh squad, which was in charge of the assault, had touched a place about 20 meters away from the enemy's bunker, and did not throw any grenades. Only the squad leader Xiao Cai yelled: "Come on!" The soldiers in the squad rushed over.At first glance, there was no one. We searched all around the enemy's stronghold, but we still couldn't see the enemy.It turned out that after the enemy fought blindly for a while, they ran away, and they all ran away.It is estimated that the enemy fled into Guangzhou along Dengfeng Road over the small slope. Another brother army pursued on Dengfeng Road.In this way, the enemy stronghold was taken down by us.We assembled the team and checked the number of people: there was no one missing. "Advance to Yuexiu Mountain according to the original deployment route!" The deputy company commander led the third platoon to the front, the second platoon and I were in the middle, and the first platoon was behind as a search force.In the misty night, we flew through two villages at a fast speed, crossed the railway, and approached Yuexiu Mountain. The Zhongshan Monument on the top of the mountain was faintly visible.The third row has reached the current location of Beixiu Lake in Yuexiu Park. Suddenly, a burst of fierce gunshots hit us.It turned out that it was the enemy hiding in the bushes beside Zhendong Road, shooting at us, the firepower was quite fierce, and there were at least three firepower points with machine guns.The three platoons that were advancing quickly returned fire on the spot, and the bullets whizzed past our heads.The soldiers in the third row shouted to the enemy collectively, but the enemy not only refused to listen, but increased their firepower to the third row. "Such a rampant and stubborn enemy must be taught a lesson!" "The artillery platoon fired at the enemy!" This was the only time our troops used artillery in the battle to liberate Guangzhou.Because there are many buildings to be protected in the city, we not only did not use artillery, but also did not use grenades, but used rifles and machine guns. After a while of our bombardment, the fast-legged enemies ran away in the dark of night, and the slow-moving enemies became our prisoners. As early as outside Guangzhou, our army has deployed tactics to liberate Guangzhou and sweep the enemy in Guangzhou in an all-round way.So in the streets of Guangzhou, almost all the People's Liberation Army passed through.In this way, the enemy can be eliminated more comprehensively and cleanly.When our company captured Yuexiu Mountain, other brother troops also broke into Guangzhou across the board. Some went straight to Guangjiu Station, some fought back at Huangsha, and some rushed into the city from Zhonghua Road (now Jiefang Road). After the capture of Yuexiu Mountain, the three companies of our battalion separated. The fifth company and the sixth company had to pass through the urban area to reach Huangsha at the fastest speed, and intercept the enemy who was about to cross the river from Huangsha pier.The goal of our company is to reach Shamian next to Huangsha. We handed over the captives on the East Road of Yuexiushan Town to the battalion, and then walked along Yingyuan Road into the downtown area.Walking through Liantang Road, I saw the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall. Although it was dark and hazy at night, I could still see its majestic and majestic outline.When we were in Hua County, our superiors instructed us to keep the Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall at all costs.Now, the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall has returned to the hands of the people intact and safe.Our hearts are doubly happy. We move on.At this time, gunshots rang out all over Guangzhou.When we arrived at the hospital along Panfu Road, we were blocked by the enemy.The enemy shot at us from a small building in the south (this place has now been converted into the outpatient department of Guangzhou First People's Hospital). "It's really blocking the car with a mantis arm!" We were not polite, and immediately fought back with doubled firepower.After fighting for a while, the enemy fell silent. Squad 8 rushed to the enemy and shouted: "The People's Liberation Army treats the prisoners preferentially. Hand in your guns and don't kill them!" He walked out with his head. There were more than 10 of them, belonging to the security team.We handed over the captives to a search platoon and moved on again. We went straight down Guangfu Road, searching and pursuing.Needless to say, those who hold rifles have already attached bayonets, and those who hold light machine guns have already hung their belts around their necks and put the guns in their hands, using them as "heavy submachine guns". When we arrived at the intersection of Shangjiu Road, we saw a platoon of the security team with sharp eyes, about 30 people, separated by only 30 meters.We rushed over while shouting: "Hand up your guns and don't kill!" When the enemy saw it, they were coming fast and fiercely. They were dumbfounded, and turned around and fled.We fought and chased, and caught more than 10 more.We have nearly 30 prisoners on our hands.In order to reduce drag and facilitate street fighting, we sent people to escort the prisoners to the battalion headquarters. After walking to the south of Guangfu Road, we turned off Taiping South Road (now known as Renmin South Road), and then turned into Xidi Erma Road.At this time, gunshots and explosions sounded from the direction of Huangsha, and the sound was very violent. When we reached the entrance of an alley on the second Xidi Road (this alley is gone now), another wave of enemies shot at us intensively.The enemy is occupying the second floor of the dilapidated Daxin Company (now Nanfang Building), condescending, trying to stop us.Our machine gunners immediately returned fire, bursts of fire, and the bullets hit the concrete pillars on the second floor, sparking sparks.The enemy is dumb.We continued to shout, but there was no movement.We thought the enemy had fled from the south. We then ran and plunged into the sand, leaving a row to search for the enemy.As a result, there were 20 enemies in this group, and they belonged to the security department. They did not escape, but just huddled upstairs. They were stunned by our counterattack. The word "Liberation Army" is enough to make them tremble. How dare they resist, and they dare not escape, for fear of being caught if they escape, it is even more unbearable.They heard the call, but they were full of worries, at a loss, and stayed there stupidly. That's fine, they will have a good end, and become a row of prisoners. The enemy entrenched in the sand is the salt police force, which is quite well equipped and extremely reactionary. They are not like the enemy on guard, they are struggling to the death. We chose to enter Shamian from Shamian East.After walking down Xidi Erma Road, we split into two roads and approached the East Bridge. The second platoon and I walked out of the 623rd Road and turned to the East Bridge. The third platoon leader and the seventh squad, who were in charge of the assault squad, found a blockhouse at the Xinglong intersection where the Shaji tragedy monument was located.After checking the firepower, the bunker was empty, so they leaned against the wall and prepared to jump to the bridge.As soon as we were dispatched, sinister enemies shot at us from Buildings 2 and 4 of Zhujiang Road, Shamian.The enemy uses automatic weapons, and the firepower is very fierce.This was the most violent and sudden shooting we have encountered since entering Guangzhou. We were crushed in the alley in the middle of Xidishaji.In the enemy's sudden shooting, two of our soldiers were wounded, and one soldier was honorably sacrificed. "We must turn grief into strength." The madness of the enemy aroused the fighting spirit of the soldiers in the third row.When the enemy was about to shoot again, our second row shot at the enemy at the intersection of Xidi Erma Road.Our shots have attracted the enemy.At this moment, the three machine gunners headed by the brave Li Youxi jumped to the gate of No. 2 Liuer 3rd Road. The enemy strafed violently.The enemy was completely suppressed, and three rows of fighters jumped to the bridge head one after another, relying on the cover of the dead corner of the bridge head, to gain a firm foothold. In order to enter Shamian as soon as possible, we decided to change the battle plan, and the second row and I turned to the West Bridge to seize the West Bridge.I immediately led the second platoon with the leader of the second platoon, and ran from the alley behind Liuer 3rd Road to the West Bridge. After we left, three rows and one row (one row up), stepped up shooting at the enemy.Under our powerful attack, the enemy retreated to the center of Shamian along the Fuxing Road, seeing that they could not withstand it. We couldn't rush across the bridge right away, because a large iron fence was tightly closed at the head of the bridge. "Machine gun cover!" A few soldiers from Squad 8 quickly climbed up the iron gate, turned in from the top, and opened the gate lock with an iron pick.The soldiers immediately jumped over the bridge, rushed into the sand, and chased the enemy along Fuxing Road. We rushed out from Tiaoyuan Xiajie.After using firepower to push back the enemy lying at No. 55 Zhaohe Road, we used the method of three rows, opened the iron gate on the West Bridge, and rushed into the sand. The enemies in Shamian have been pushed into the Bank of Taiwan on Fuxing Road by three rows and one row.The stubborn enemy just refuses to surrender, and leans against the window sill to resist.We rushed in from the West Bridge, joined the three platoons, and surrounded the Bank of Taiwan.While suppressing the enemy with firepower, we shouted to the enemy from all around.The enemy was besieged front and back, besieged on all sides. At first, the gunfire from Huangsha's side was still tight, and the enemy still hoped that Huangsha's enemies could rescue them.But the enemies in Huangsha were quickly wiped out by us, and the gunshots were quiet.Enemies in the Bank of Taiwan know there is no hope. It was our seventh squad again, crossing the short wall on the west side of the Bank of Taiwan and rushing in.The more than 90 enemies huddled in the Bank of Taiwan had no choice but to raise their hands and surrender.We surrendered the weapons in the hands of the enemy one by one, and these weapons were all engraved with the words Made in the United States.U.S. imperialism vainly tried to use these weapons to preserve the Chiang dynasty and extinguish the revolutionary struggle of the Chinese people.But these weapons not only became the spoils of war of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, but also accelerated the demise of the Jiang family dynasty. At this time, the sky gradually brightened. In order to eliminate the enemies who slipped through the net, we separately searched the places where there were gunshots.I led a team to search along Fuxing Road.We walked to No. 20 Fuxing Road (there is only one building away from Taiwan Bank). This is a church.There is a small garden in front of it, and an iron fence more than one meter high surrounds the garden and the church.We wanted to search this place, and we pressed the doorbell a few times, but when there was no movement, we called the door. After a while, four foreigners with serious faces came out. I said gently: "Sir, we are the Chinese People's Liberation Army. We are going in for a military search. Please open the door." One of them, who looked very arrogant, stared at me with red face and bulging eyes, stretched out a hand, spread his palm and shook it vigorously, expressing his refusal, and opened his mouth in English: "This is a holy church, do not enter! This is The residence of the English clergy shall be inviolable!" Fearing that we might not understand, one of them translated to us once in blunt Chinese. I thought to myself: "What a powerful tone. But, don't you know! On the land of China, the days when the imperialists glared at the Chinese people, cursed and bullied them, and showed off their might have come to an end since the day the People's Republic of China was born. Already!" "What should we do in the face of these angry, shouting gringos?" "Can their shouts frighten us?" "No! Shamian is Chinese territory and we have every right to take any action we deem appropriate." I politely asked them to open the door again.They still don't open. "Climb over the bars and open the door!" I ordered. We went in and asked them to take us to search.These foreign gentlemen, who were flushed and angry a few seconds ago, turned gray in an instant, and obediently followed our wishes, leading us in for a search. At dawn, the gunfire in Guangzhou had subsided, and our military search in Shamian had also come to an end.The military operation to liberate Shamian is over.Shamian, the land that has been humiliated and ravaged by imperialism for more than 100 years, and the land that has been groaning under the trample of imperialism for more than 100 years, will return to the motherland and the people forever from today. In the early morning of October 15th, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly. On the top floor of Aiqun Building, the tallest building in Guangzhou, a huge five-star red flag was hoisted.The bright five-star red flag fluttered happily in the sun.She announced to people all over Guangzhou: Old Guangzhou died last night, and new Guangzhou was born this morning! We stood on the sandy surface, by the river, took out a handkerchief from our bag, wiped off the sweat accumulated on our face due to the fierce battle, and with a victorious smile, stared at the majestic and beautiful five-star red flag flying high in the sky for a long time , sweet in my heart, extremely happy.After the liberation of Guangzhou, we temporarily lived in Shamian for a short-term rest. On October 21, a grand celebration meeting was held in Guangzhou East Competition Field.Our army played triumphant songs, held a city entry ceremony, accepted the inspection of the people of Guangzhou, presented flags and flowers by the people of Guangzhou, and received a large number of condolence letters and gifts. Three days later, we bid farewell to Guangzhou. With the revolutionary determination to completely wipe out the reactionaries and liberate the whole of China, we stepped on the land of the motherland and continued to march south, to Hainan Island!
