Chapter 2 Chapter 02

Generally, when marching under normal circumstances, the chief of staff will go first, go to the destination house first, bury the pot for cooking, and the troops will rest immediately after arriving at the campsite after eating.But at this moment, it will not work. The whole army is rushing forward, and the problem of food is already secondary.Fortunately, at the same time, both the Jizhong and Jijin military regions have set up special support headquarters to mobilize fellow villagers to deliver supplies and ammunition for the troops.Because it was in the liberated area, and the military situation was so urgent, there was no problem of concealing military plans. In the villages where the troops passed, the bustle and bustle turned into a long market.

Logistics is very important in a war. It is generally divided into two stalls. The rear is the transport team, which is farther away from the battlefield. There are large vehicles, and the rear is farther away.The one in the front followed the command post, and a stretcher team was at the corner of the Qingfengdian battlefield.There are many people in war. , The stretcher team is indispensable. How can there be fewer injuries and sacrifices in war?When a gun is fired, there are bound to be casualties.What is the use of a stretcher? A stretcher can be made by removing a door panel. If there is no such thing, sticks and ropes can also form a simple stretcher.The stretcher team follows the regiment-level team, usually seventy or eighty stretchers.Generally, some of the stretcher-carrying team members were injured or sacrificed. Before each battle, the local government had to mobilize them for as long as the battle lasted, and they could only go home after the battle.Eat the same as the troops, and act the same as the troops, only behind the troops.Since everything is the same as the army, a mess is extremely unsuitable for war. There must be an organization. In the future, the stretcher team will not be called migrant workers, but will be called a stretcher team and become a team.

The Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region issued a unified organization of militia regiments, stretcher corps, and transport corps, formulated interim measures for wartime services, and deployed rectification work. It required that qualified young and middle-aged migrant workers must participate in the support, emphasizing party members and cadres To take the lead, the organization cadres of various combat operations must be led by county, district, and village cadres.In order to balance the burden, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region divides manpower and material resources into three lines: the first line is the combat area, which is temporarily requisitioned as a reserve force for the battlefield; Campaign; the third line is the rear area, responsible for the task of accompanying the army and the vanguard depot, and the service period is two campaigns.

Anguo County was able to complete the rectification of the pre-support work in only five or six days. It organized 400 sets of stretchers for the army and 300 sets of stretchers for military station transfer. Moreover, it conducted military education and actual combat exercises, and the number of mobilization exceeded the requirements stipulated by the superior.Raoyang County formed three regiments of transport carts, migrant labor stretchers, and militia accompanying the army, and they were on standby for the expedition.According to the needs of troops in mobile operations, the Jinchaji Military Region set up four military stations in Dingxian, Quyang, Beizhen, and Zhaixidian to be responsible for the transportation between the second-level military region and the field army.

If the field army has military operations, when the station on the line is transferred, it will be replaced by a station in the Jijin Military Region.A number of sub-stations are temporarily set up between the military depots, transfer stations for the wounded, and boarding and lodging stations, forming an expandable and retractable military depot transportation network for first aid, dressing changes, food, migrant workers' board and lodging, and replacement, making a contribution to the development and changes of the war situation. I have become multi-handed. In order to ensure the progress of both Baobei and Baonan campaigns, the grain-producing areas in Central Hebei have already transferred large quantities of grain to Yi County, Wan County, Mancheng, and Tang Counties and stored them in mountainous areas.Jizhong has made key reserves, and all counties have also established supply points for grain, diesel, salt, and non-staple food.In order to supply nearby, shorten transportation distance, reduce losses, and facilitate storage, a method of multi-point storage and decentralized storage has also been adopted.Small grain depots and non-staple food supply stations were also set up in Sanwu villages in places close to the war zone and on major traffic routes.In addition, the army grain depot was also organized, and the food was loaded on the carts, and they followed the troops, and the troops went wherever the army grain depots went.

The Battle of Qingfengdian was carried out suddenly, and no one thought of or planned this change in the battle situation beforehand, just like water has no permanent shape.However, it is precisely because the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region has such a strict transport network of military stations that the troops can go ahead with food and grass before the arrival of soldiers and horses under any circumstances. The logistics of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region specially opened a forward command post in Yi County to uniformly command the logistics work on the front line of Baobei. Once the battle of Qingfengdian was decided, the troops rushed south, and the logistics troops followed up.The logistics of the Jizhong Military Region is in charge of the deputy commander Wu Shusheng. Before the establishment of Anxin, he urgently issued combat missions while adjusting manpower and material resources. Except for some personnel who continued to provide support, the rest were immediately transferred to Gaoyang to open the Qingfeng store logistics Military depot, a sub-station close to the command post at the same level.The soldiers of the ninth brigade were stationed in Wangjing, 10 miles away from the army, and the soldiers of the tenth brigade were stationed in Xujiazhuang, 8 miles away from the army.When the troops finally encircled the southwestern joint, the logistics depots of the two brigades were transferred to the joint camp in time, about 2.5 kilometers away from the front line.

According to the statistics after the war, each soldier in the war troops had an average of 2.5 migrant workers, every 4 people had a stretcher, and every 12 people had a front cart.Precisely because of the meticulous preparations in normal times, once the emergency theater is mobilized, all the militias and ordinary people in the entire region will take action. In just a few hours, more than ten counties along the way will mobilize 10,000 stretchers, 98,000 migrant workers, and carts to transport ammunition. , followed the troops forward.In Dingxian County alone, 170 carts were quickly organized, rushing to transport them day and night, ensuring that each soldier carried 100 rounds of rifle bullets and 4 grenades.In addition, each machine gun has 500 rounds of ammunition, and each artillery has 50 rounds of shells.Jizhong also raised more than 700,000 catties of grain for the troops participating in the war within two days, and also raised more than 100,000 catties of horse feed and more than one million catties of horse grass, as well as a large amount of oil and salt vegetables and equipment for building fortifications, and prepared One million catties of firewood was used.

On October 17 of that year, the siege of Xushui had been going on for 5 days. The dull sound of cannons kept coming. In, busy inside and out.He was very busy with a batch of food, and suddenly, an urgent notice came from the phone, and he had to go to Yesi for a meeting immediately.Geng Biao talked about the situation in Qingfengdian, and then said that to complete this task, it still depends on the strong support of the people in Jizhong. Wu Shusheng said, no problem, what is the specific task? Geng Biao said that there is no time for the troops to cook on the way, and the villages along the way have to prepare them. The troops will eat while walking, without stopping for a moment.How about it?Can it be done?The hardest part, I'm afraid, is the meal tomorrow morning.

Geng Biao looked at his watch, it was 8 o'clock in the evening, and there were only a dozen hours until tomorrow morning. During the Battle of Qingfengdian, our soldiers embarked on the journey. Wu Shusheng said, "Okay, we will guarantee that the troops will be able to eat tomorrow morning." He did some calculations, and arranged the layout from the special area to the county to the district and then to the village, and finally notified each household to carry water, light a fire, wash rice, combine noodles, and cook them. It usually takes two to three days, but now It was only a dozen hours, and the difficulty was indeed not small, but Wu Shusheng didn't say anything.Back at the headquarters of the branch, Wu Shusheng asked all levels to take all measures immediately, such as telephone, telegram, mule horse, bicycle or running, to send the chicken feather letter as soon as possible.

Every house near the war zone lit up their lights and stayed up all night to process military rations for the military ration depot. The sound of grinding could be heard clearly from miles away. As soon as the task was arranged, the original branch headquarters in Baobei remained, except for a small part to continue in Baobei, and most of them were transferred from Anxin to Gaoyang.Wu Shusheng looked at the sky, the east was already pale, and the scheduled time was coming. Have the rice and water stations along the way been set up?The further he walked, the more restless his heart became.Suddenly there was a commotion ahead, and an encouraging scene appeared. At the entrance of the village, a large group of fellow villagers were leaning their shoulders on their shoulders and looking north. Under the clean cage cloth, the freshly baked pancakes and sweet potatoes are steaming with fragrance.When the villagers saw Wu Shusheng and the others coming, they all gathered around and asked when the troops would arrive?Wu Shusheng saw an old man with white powder all over his face, so he asked him, and the lady next to him said first, "I have never burned a fire in my life, and this time I heard that I was cooking for the soldiers. I was afraid that it would be too late, so I had to do it. I am clumsy. After baking a few sheets, a lot of flour was stuck on the face.

The whole group laughed. Everyone talked about what happened last night. When the rooster crowed three times, a gong sounded in the village, saying that fellow villagers, the soldiers will pass by tomorrow morning, so everyone hasten to get up, boil water, and bake dry food.The flour and firewood went to the village government to get them.Immediately, the lights in the village were brightly lit, and the hundred catties of noodles stored in the grain storehouse were emptied in no time.There is not enough noodles, and the director of food and fodder was anxious with a scale. An old man said, can we make the soldiers hungry?Of course not.Then let's take out the noodles left at home for entertaining guests, gather less and make more, and we can gather hundreds of catties.After a short effort, each family came to the village with big cakes and boiling water. Wu Shusheng said, Uncle, it's only midnight, you guys are really fast. The old man said that as long as the common people are united, even big things can be done. While talking, clouds of smoke and dust rose in the distance, and the troops came over. The villages that the troops passed by had already made all preparations, which greatly shortened the stay time of the troops. When the sun rises a pole high, the troops coming one after another will enter the south of Gaoyang. This area is the old liberated area, far away from the village, you can smell the aroma of every family's food.Arranged along the street, there are large vats, small pots, and baskets made of rice-wrapped leaves, containing steaming meals, corn cakes with green onion oil, large sweet potatoes with red skin and sandy flesh, and hot bread. , there are peeled tea eggs, red dates, peanuts, walnuts, and even fragrant cooked pork that can only be seen during the Chinese New Year.Ordinary people really take what they have at home, and even take out some New Year’s goods that they are reluctant to eat for the New Year.Seeing the soldiers limping and running, the old man felt very distressed. While stuffing food into the hands of the soldiers, he said, if you stay here for a while, I will make a pot of hot water and scald you well. Hot feet.The old lady also said that the Kuomintang soldiers have tortured us so much that we have nothing to eat, so we will give all the food to comrades.The soldiers didn't care about talking, they grabbed the food and ran away, not knowing what they were holding, they had already gobbled it down. A drinking water station was set up at intervals, and the sister-in-law, auntie, and children took out the mung beans that they could not bear to eat at home and made soup, as well as pancakes, eggs, and even hazelnuts for the children, and gave them to the soldiers one by one.The team did not stop, and the villagers knew that the soldiers were rushing to destroy the enemy, so they stuffed handfuls of ground into the soldiers' hands to eat, and the children also imitated the adults and stuffed sugar and sunflower seeds into the soldiers' pockets, and the girls blushed. She blushed and helped the old lady stuff red eggs into the soldier's hands.In rural areas, red eggs are a symbol of auspiciousness, and generally confinement mothers only eat red eggs.Yang Chengwu looked at this lively scene and thought, it seems that we must win this battle, we will definitely win.Thinking of this, he repeatedly said thank you to the village cadres who led the team!Thanks! The militiamen helped the soldiers carry their backpacks one after another, and some used carts to push the soldiers, pushing them forward for a while and then returning to push another soldier.People in dozens of villages near Qingfengdian volunteered to serve as guides for the troops, repair fortifications, and transport grain and grass.After the battle starts, automatically organize a joint defense, capture and take care of the prisoners. All these have strongly encouraged the soldiers' emotions. Behind the troops, there appeared a brigade of migrant workers, carrying stretchers and driving carts, which could not be seen at the end. Zhu Xiandong, head of the Supply Section of the Third Vertical Ninth Brigade, said that it was very simple at that time, but the logistics were extremely difficult. There was nothing, and there was nothing.It is easy and easy to say, it is to rely on the masses, the stretcher team, the ambulance team, the transportation team, all rely on the people.In a word, if you leave the common people, there will be no logistics. Hou Debao, the former political commissar of the Logistics Department of the Beijing Military Region, was in charge of logistics at the Fourth Vertical and Tenth Brigade. He said that he rushed to Qingfengdian that day and ran 230 miles a day and a night. When he arrived at Yanggezhuang, my horse refused to leave.The breakfast that Hou Debao arranged for brigade commander Qiu Wei, political commissar Fu Chongbi, and director of the political department Bian Jiang was deep-fried dough sticks.The horse didn't go, there was no way, and he ate a few fried dough sticks and drank water for the horse, and then went on the road again.Hou Debao said that he took the county magistrates of Mancheng and Yixian to go together; to promote to the villagers that boiled eggs, pancakes, and steamed buns are all good, and don't forget the water.At that time, the fellow was so kind. As soon as the county magistrate said it, he acted immediately, without delaying the troops at all. Most of the troops were comforted by fellow villagers along the way.But not all the troops rushing to Qingfengdian had their meals, and some of them didn't. They were simply hungry, such as the 26th regiment, which ran all night and only ate in the city at dawn.Meals are not sitting down, but grabbing from their own dry food bags while walking.However, those who did not eat were only a very small part of the troops, because the marching routes of the troops were different. Although they all went to Qingfengdian, they could not be crowded together.This is not to be afraid, the logistics system is equipped with an army grain depot, which can guarantee the supply of each soldier for 1-2 days.The troops who really can't eat are not afraid. Each regiment has emergency measures. The regiment gathers all the cooks from each company to cook and deliver water for the front line. Wang Ziming, the former deputy political commissar of a certain army, who lived in the Red Army Road Cadre Rest Center in Shijiazhuang, was the director of the Seventh Brigade's reconnaissance company at that time.He said that for more than 50 kilometers, we ran all night to Fangshun Bridge, mainly to prevent the enemies from Baoding from coming out.After the encirclement of Qingfengdian, the Seventh Brigade built another line of defense at Fangshun Bridge in advance, fearing that Baobei would not be able to withstand it.I also walked in a hurry along the way.The political commissar mobilized and said that if you can move, you must walk, and if you cannot walk, you must walk.Wang Ziming remembered that it was still dark when they set off, and the soldiers filled the rice bags and brought food for several days.The cooking team only had an oil picker and a marching pot, and they left without lifting their legs.On the morning of arriving at Qingfengdian, the kitchen of the 26th Regiment quickly set up a pot to cook the rice and delivered it to the soldiers who were digging fortifications. As for Luo Lirong's Third Army, not only did they not have any condolences from fellow villagers along the way, but the fellow villagers also sealed off the wells and hid the food.Not to mention tired and hungry, Luo Lirong's troops were attacked all the way.Even camping at night is often full of trees and trees, and I can't sleep well. No wonder the road is getting slower and slower. It is already clear who can win and who cannot win this battle. The troops marching into Qingfengdian marched in multiple ways, withdrew from Panghei, and began to trot all the way, no matter how much they fell behind, if they couldn't keep up, they couldn't keep up, as many as they could bring, and as many as they could get on.Because it was a rapid march, the soldiers all carried backpacks, when they entered the battle, when did they throw off the backpacks and concentrate on logistics.Backpacks were very precious at that time, each person had one, and if lost, they could not be retrieved.Instructor Fu Fuzeng said that he remembered that the soldiers were in high spirits at that time, and not many were left behind. Ordinary nights are long, but now the nights accompanied by light rain are too short. The white belly has already appeared in the east, and the distance is only more than 50 kilometers, which is not even half.And it was only 10 hours away from the stipulated time.Whether the enemy can reach Qingfengdian first has become the most severe test. Fu Fuzeng, who served as the deputy political commissar of a certain division before retiring, was the instructor of the third company of the first battalion of the 25th Regiment of the Ninth Brigade at that time. He said that during that period of time, he basically fought every day. It is mobile warfare.The main task of fighting mobile warfare is to march, and marching is a manifestation of combat effectiveness.As long as you arrive on time, you have achieved the prerequisite for victory.At this time, after seven days and nights of continuous combat, the troops were already quite tired, and they walked non-stop all night, and now they seemed to be unable to walk anymore; some soldiers fell asleep while walking, waiting for the people behind to push them He suddenly woke up and walked forward again.They fell asleep again while walking, and some even lay on the side of the road and started snoring. The marching speed gradually slowed down. Political work has shown great power here. "Catch Luo Lirong alive!" Make great contributions to the people! "From the head of the field army to the commanders at all levels and political workers, they all walked through the marching team, propagandizing while walking, and encouraged them not to fall behind. They also conducted in-depth and detailed investigations on possible concerns such as "fear of being empty, afraid of walking, and afraid of falling behind due to fatigue". He has repeatedly explained the main significance of this battle, and only by walking fast can he seize the opportunity. All walking is for the purpose of fighting, and walking is the key to winning the battle. Whoever can overcome fatigue will win the battle. Can win. And put forward the slogan: "Don't be afraid to walk, don't be afraid to miss the air, don't be afraid to get tired and lag behind, and you will win if you rush to the front of the enemy." Encourage all combatants to fight this battle resolutely. At the same time, leaders at all levels strictly organize and strengthen the containment work. Carry out ten miles In a competition activity, see who can arrive one minute earlier, see who can exchange fire with the enemy first, so as to mobilize the confidence of soldiers to be advanced. At the same time, actively carry out solidarity and mutual assistance activities, and strive not to fall behind. Party members and backbones have already become "two guns" Will"? Everyone was still rushing to carry things for the cooking squad and the weak comrades. Later, in order to ensure time, all the troops were lightly packed, only carrying weapons in their hands, and they walked and ran as they could. Regardless of the daytime In the dark night, regardless of all fatigue, regardless of enemy aircraft attack, we must arrive at the designated location on time. Ge Zhenyue, thin and small, was jokingly called a little intellectual by his comrades in arms. He was the political commissar of the 26th Regiment of the 3rd Vertical and 9th Brigade when he attacked Qingfengdian.At that time, battles were usually communicated to the columns, at most to the brigades.The regiment level seldom communicates in detail, which battle to fight, and then arranges it in a meeting.Like the Qingfengdian battle, there was not even a meeting. We were fighting in Baobei. We had fought a fierce battle for one day and were preparing for a more brutal blockade the next day. The brigade headquarters a few kilometers away called.Say you leave immediately.Then he told me where to go and what time to arrive.Finally, did you hear me clearly?Ge Zhenyue said, I understand, you mean to let our group arrive at Wangdu before dawn?Yes, you repeat.Ge Zhenyue repeated it exactly. It was dusk, and the head of the regiment, Fan Zhihui, was walking by the side of the village, thinking about the next step of the battle. The correspondent quickly called him back, and the chief of staff, Zhou Zhenheng, was also called back from the front line. If you fight again, you will be beaten down. How can you withdraw after hitting it?what happened?The head of the group, Fan Zhihui, said that he had a new task and set off immediately.Not to mention the combat units at the front.Even the regiment headquarters didn't have dinner. Fortunately, they fried some soybeans beforehand and distributed them to the guards.Whoever is hungry will eat a handful, because there is no time to eat on the road according to the time calculation.The order to set off was issued quickly. However, nothing else is known except the destination of arrival and the time of arrival.Didn't ask, the soldiers took obeying orders as their bounden duty, and the troops set off on the road one after another, running forward.When we set off, some second-line troops were eating, some of them finished eating, and some did not.Those who finished eating only had a thin quilt, a pair of shoes, and a backpack with clothes on their backs, and left without eating. They wrapped the rest of the meal in a towel and ate it whole while marching quickly. Yan Da was the deputy battalion commander of the 1st Battalion of the 26th Regiment at that time. At that time, their battalion was building fortifications in Dingxing. They wanted to take Laishui down.The Second Company suffered heavy casualties, and took down the Grasshopper Temple in the Monk's Tomb; occupied Nanguan, and was wounded by the enemy's 60 artillery when passing through an open field.While blocking the enemies coming from Peiping, before the battle was over, another order came to attack Fangshan.At night, Yan Da led his company commander Wang Gencheng and his company to approach the enemy from the south side of Fangshan, where there was a reinforced platoon of the enemy.Crawling and approaching the enemy, before the sound was fired, a messenger came and ordered to retreat quickly, saying that the enemy had increased their troops and retreated to Dingxing, and quickly dug fortifications to prevent the enemies in Baoding from coming out.It was afternoon, and the soldiers were digging fortifications before dinner.Suddenly received an order to stop digging, and immediately assembled and set off to Qingfengdian. Movement warfare, movement warfare, only movement can fight.To exercise, there is no car, no car of any kind, only relying on two legs, walking has become an important process of fighting.Marching, especially the marching of large troops, requires a lot of attention, and troops cannot march in parallel.When large groups come together, it is easy to mess up, and it is easy to be bombed by enemy planes during the day.Therefore, every commander must learn to march.Ge Zhenyue came out of the practice, and it was too late to go first, but the scout had to go first and find a guide.In the plains, if you walk 10 kilometers without a guide, you will inevitably get lost in the daytime, not to mention the night.It is impossible not to find a guide. If you take a few more wrong steps, you will waste precious time, and you must not take a wrong step.Scouts all have this ability, even in the middle of the night, they can jump over the wall to find a guide. After that, he didn't stop for a day and a night, and ran to Qingfengdian at a speed of 10 kilometers per hour. Li Yutang is the instructor of the 1st Battalion and 2nd Company of the 26th Regiment. At the age of 13, he has been in North China since August 1939. He followed his father and was a famous father-son soldier in the army. Still fighting Japan.He said that the 26th Regiment was the main force in the brigade, and the common people all made up a jingle, Shoot Beikou Valley, Burning Gun Peak Ridge, Where did the team come from so brave? It was still the first battalion of the Sixth Regiment. The Twenty-Sixth Regiment was the later number. At first it was the Sixth Regiment, also known as the Old Sixth Regiment. The local people in Shanxi know that the Old Sixth Regiment stayed in Shanxi as soon as it was established and never went to other places.It was originally set to support the Northeast, but it changed in the end. Instead of going, I stayed in Jinchaji.Because it has been fighting in the mountains, it is known as the mountain tiger.The head of the regiment, Fan Zhihui, was not tall and spoke softly. He was an old Red Army member who participated in the Long March.The 26th Regiment was an old Red Army regiment, and there were many Red Army companies. Most of the squad leaders and trumpeters were old Red Army soldiers from the south. The first battalion was expanded by the company from the Baise Uprising, the third battalion was the company in Jinggangshan, and only the second battalion was newly formed.This determines the characteristics of the 26th Regiment. It is capable of fighting. Whenever there is a tough battle in the brigade, it will be handed over to the 26th Regiment. It can be said that it is invincible.But you can also violate the discipline of the masses, and don't return what you borrowed.The characteristic of the 26th regiment is that it can fight and walk, especially the ability to walk. It is known as the marching fortress, and no one can walk.The secret is that two veterans sandwich a new recruit, take them away, and take them away faster and faster.When the Ninth Brigade first returned to the Third Column, the Seventh Brigade and the Eighth Brigade, the old troops of the Third Column, were not very convinced. They couldn't do it when they compared it. However, the Ninth Brigade walked more than 100 miles a day, no problem, and they walked very fast.The Ninth Brigade, a mountain tiger, goes down the plains, and the road is flat no matter how far it is. When the tiger descends the mountain, it is like having wings.So Sanzong left the Seventh Brigade and Eighth Brigade to stop the attack in Baobei, and let the Ninth Brigade participate in the battle of Qingfengdian, which still needs to walk. The twenty-sixth regiment of the Ninth Brigade walked fast, and the second battalion counted among the twenty-sixth regiment. Among the second battalion, Liu Ming of the seventh company walked the fastest. front of the regiment.In almost every battle, Ge Zhenyue followed the assault battalion, and when the assault battalion went up, he went up too.Ge Zhenyue can also walk. He said that when he was studying in the military and political school, Sun Yi was the principal. He took the students to run on the river beach before dawn in the morning. They climbed the mountain halfway up, and Sun Yi was already on the top of the mountain.At that time, I often walked 10 kilometers an hour, non-stop, and soon changed from a commoner to a real soldier.The principle of the march against Qingfengdian this time is that the fastest battalion is in front of the whole regiment, the fastest company is in front of the whole battalion, and the fastest walking soldier is in front of the whole company. The pioneers kept walking, and half of the squad behind was responsible for containment.In a word, no matter how much you fall behind, as long as there is one person who still has to move forward, arriving at Qingfengdian on time is a victory. In the Second Battalion of the 27th Regiment of the 3rd Vertical and 9th Brigade, there was a big soldier named Yin Yong. Because he was too tall and fat, his comrades gave him the nickname Dayan Horse.How tall and big is he?There is such a story that he injured his leg while fighting in Shijiazhuang and could not walk, so he had to wait for a stretcher to be carried.There was a joke when carrying him. Several groups of migrant workers went up, and when the other wounded came down, he was gone.Two more stretchers were put up, but before he could be lifted, the migrant workers said they couldn't lift him.The trainer Ran Laopeng was in a hurry and said to carry Yin Yong down quickly.Yin Yong is a master of life in both marching and fighting, and the trainer will lift him down no matter what he says.Two stretcher members went up, but no, two more went up, and four stretcher members barely lifted Yin Yong down.Afterwards, I weighed 180 kilograms.The heavyweight Yin Yong weighs two full weights, and he also weighs two heavy machine guns while marching.Maxim heavy machine guns are usually carried by mules, which cannot be carried by humans. If there are no mules, they must be unloaded and carried by two people separately.But with Yin Yong, there is no need, he picked it up and ran away by himself.Yin Yong has another special feature. His feet are too big, and almost none of the military shoes issued by the army are suitable for him.His feet are twice as big as others, like a big cattail fan, suitable for helping fellow villagers grow radishes, and the surface they step on is big.Battalion Commander Cui Kuilong told Yin Yong not to make two pairs of shoes as soon as the war broke out. Thanks to Yin Yong, the rapid march to Qingfengdian encouraged the soldiers a lot.Yin Yong is from Shanxi, and he can sing Shanxi ditties. Perhaps because of his tall stature and large lung capacity, his voice is surprisingly good.Every time I get tired from marching, the instructors and instructors will yell, looking for Yin Yong, where is Yin Yong?Sing.Most of the Ninth Brigade are from Shanxi, Shanxi people accounted for more than 80%, no doubt they love to listen to the ditties of their hometown, Yin Yong sang loudly and loudly, and the whole battalion of the marching team could hear it all, no matter how tired they were, The mood of the troops has also been fully motivated, and they will not feel tired no matter how far they go. On the way to Qingfengdian, when the troops were tired, they asked Yin Yong to sing.The battalion commander also deliberately wanted to replenish his energy, and asked the communication team to give him some unfinished dry food that he had brought, but it was not enough, so he was responsible for finding sweet potatoes for him.Just like this, during the march to Qingfengdian this time, Yin Yong sang one after another, making the marching team go faster and faster.Cai Shunli of the Ninth Brigade said that Qingfengdian walked in a hurry without rest, and ate while walking. Every commander is like this, you can bring as many soldiers as you can, go first, stop the enemy first, and have the general reserve behind.Zhang Minghe, political commissar of the 11th Brigade, said that the enemy had already arrived, and the sooner the better.It is said that it is a regiment, battalion and company, but in fact all regiments, battalions and companies are in disorder. Some lie down, and when they yell, they get up and move forward.Everyone is desperately trying to catch the enemy with one belief.The hard part is mastering the troops.As for the food, Zhang Minghe said, we didn't eat it, and neither did the political commissar of the brigade commander.Xiao Yingtang, the brigade commander of the Second Vertical and Fourth Brigade, said that the slogan at that time was very simple, fight, run, and be hungry.According to the order, the 26th Regiment detoured from Gucheng, which is nearly 40 kilometers away from Baoding. Although the road was broken, they still arrived at Qingfengdian before dawn, 4 hours earlier. Because all the troops rushed forward, the battlefield of Qingfengdian was actually south of Fangshun Bridge as expected, that is to say, it was farther away from Baoding.At a place more than ten miles north of Wangdu City, political commissar Ge Zhenyue and regiment leader Fan Zhihui discussed to let the troops rest. On the morning of the 18th, the vanguard of our army had quietly bypassed Baoding from the east and west sides.Although some troops only ate one meal a day, they still rushed forward at a rapid march.In the multi-way marching team?Only one battalion stopped to rest for 5 hours and did not arrive at the designated location on time. The battalion commander was punished with a major demerit.In addition, around zero o'clock on this day, the participating troops arrived at the designated area on time or 4 to 6 hours earlier. The 3rd Vertical and 9th Brigade, known as the marching fortress, ran 120 kilometers a day and a night.There are no enemies in Qingfengdian in the designated area. It was later learned that the battle plan had returned the enemy's marching speed to be considered fast, and the enemy had not arrived at this time.There are no enemies in the designated area, so continue to search forward.At this time, because both the enemy and ourselves are in motion, the enemy certainly doesn't know where we are, and we don't know where the enemy is either. Although we know that the enemy should be in the east of Qingfengdian, but the east is so big that we don't know which village it is in.There is a village in the dark ahead, and I dare not leave. I don’t know if there are any enemies. Liu Yantian, the section chief of the Third Vertical and Ninth Brigade, said that no enemy has been found, and they thought they had passed. , Gradually increase the troops.The pioneers moved forward first, and the troops dispersed into battle formations, and then moved eastward for twenty or thirty miles, and only before dawn did they confront the enemy. This is Gao Jiasamura of Qingfengdian. Cai Shunli, political commissar of the Ninth Brigade, said that we contacted the enemy before dawn. Our Ninth Brigade was the first to contact the enemy, and we arrived 4 hours earlier.Didn't hear the gunshots, they hit, from the west of the village to the east.When the enemy opened fire, Zhou Zhenheng, the chief of staff of the regiment, led the guards and immediately hid behind the grave.The enemy didn't understand the situation, and didn't dare to move out rashly, so they froze temporarily.Zhou Zhenheng's stomach growled in the dark night, so he hadn't eaten all night.The guard handed over two pieces of roasted sweet potatoes from behind. Although it was cold, it didn't matter. I was young at that time, and no matter how cold it was, it would not spoil my stomach.While eating delicious roasted sweet potatoes, there was a lot of gunshots.This is how the Battle of Qingfengdian began.
