A division of the Eighth Route Army was bitten by the enemy, and the friendly troops were slow to move, and only later did they know that there was a deep meaning

After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, when the whole country was looking forward to the arrival of peace, the Kuomintang reactionaries headed by Chiang Kai-shek launched a civil war, and we carried out a three-year war of liberation, for which we finally won victory, but it should be said that due to the inherent disadvantages, our army could only carry out passive strategic defense at the beginning, and had to shrink its strength for this purpose, and because of the dangers of the northeast battlefield, the strategic goal of "defending to the south and developing to the north" was decided.

A large number of elite troops were transferred into the northeast region, and at the same time the Kuomintang army also mobilized elite troops with the intention of eliminating the Northeast Democratic Coalition Army in the northeast; since the Kuomintang army was all mechanized and equipped troops, our army could only retreat strategically in the early stages.

At that time, it was the Seventh Column of the Northeast Democratic Coalition Army that was being chased in the tail, and the whole army was holding a fire, determined to fight a turnaround battle, and in order to strike at the enemy fiercely, at that time, the 89th Division of the 12th Army was able to fight a counter-charge due to the light enemy's adventurism, highlighting a part, and our army immediately mobilized troops, so that the 7th Column and the 1st Division plus the strength of the 3rd Division and the 7th Brigade of the 3rd Division encircled the division, and the whole process of the entire campaign was as smooth as ever, but then the problems also appeared, the enemy was well-equipped, rich in combat experience, and often able to fight counter-charge, which brought great difficulties to our army.

At that time, the commander of the 1st Division was Liang Xingchu, who was also a fierce general, and after attracting all the enemy's main forces under artillery fire, he found that the 7th Brigade, which should have followed, had never moved, and the two sides launched close-quarters hand-to-hand combat on the main positions, and the 1st Division repeatedly repelled the enemy's attack, but helplessly, the enemy's counterattack was even more fierce, and Liang Xingchu could not contact the 7th Brigade, and directly commanded the troops to launch a fierce attack on the enemy's weak areas.

But fortunately, at this time, the 7th Brigade also threw themselves into battle, and it turned out that they were instructed by the headquarters to deliberately slow down for ten minutes into battle, the purpose of which was to paralyze the enemy, to make the enemy mistakenly think that there was an enemy in only one direction, so that they concentrated all the main forces in one direction, and then took advantage of the situation to put in another force, so that the enemy would inevitably be unable to take care of himself, and sure enough, after the 7th Brigade entered the battle, the enemy's position was immediately in chaos.

Although the Kuomintang army later invested a lot of troops to rescue, the vanguard of its 52nd Army has engaged in an exchange of fire with the 7 arsons, the two sides are fiery, but our army is more and more courageous in the war, and finally after a fierce battle, our army successfully annihilated all the main forces of the enemy's 89th Division, and the division commander Wan Zhaoren made up and fled, you must know that although the enemy 89th Division belonged to the second-rate troops during the War of Resistance, it was accepted by some American equipment after the end of the War of Resistance, and the combat effectiveness was greatly improved, and after this battle, the main force of the Kuomintang Army was annihilated. It greatly enhanced the self-confidence of the troops and laid the foundation for the victory of the later war.
