【Introduction】
In the history of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, there were not only fierce confrontations on the frontal battlefield, but also the strategy and boldness to disintegrate the enemy. A regiment in the New Fourth Army has experienced such a miracle.
Although there was resistance in his heart at first, in order to cooperate with the aid of the frontal battlefield, the strong forces of the Japanese and false were eroded from within, and under the inspiration of the extraordinary mission, they waited for the opportunity to break the situation at any time
。 A man-made drama begins.
【Strange Tactics and Strange Soldiers of the Tonghai Self-Defense Regiment】
This regiment is the New Fourth Army Tonghai Self-Defense Regiment, and the regimental commander is named Tang Jingyan. He was born in 1904, a native of Luzhuang, Luyao Township, Rugao County, Jiangsu Province, and in 1937 Tang Jingyan established the Haimen People's Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Corps and served as deputy commander-in-chief, and later became acquainted with Mei Jiasheng, the commander of the Third Regiment of the New Fourth Army's Advancing Column.
A regiment under the jurisdiction of the New Fourth Army, called the Tonghai Self-Defense Regiment, in order to skillfully maneuver with the enemy, they planned a strange plan and dispatched strange soldiers. Why is this regiment special?
In 1943, when the Qingxiang Movement, which was developing in the Nantong area by the Japanese and the Japanese, was active, it also kept taking political incitement in an attempt to ideologically eliminate the anti-Japanese will and spirit of our army, and ordered the Nantong Qingxiang Office and the Secret Service Department to write a counter-letter. The Tonghai Self-Defense Regiment was on the front line of anti-Qingxiang and naturally became the primary target of rebellion.
Tang Jingyan, the regimental commander, promptly reported the situation to his superiors, but he did not expect that the superiors would use the "method of confusion" to secretly order the Tonghai Self-Defense Regiment to accept the rebellion and insert it into the Japanese and pseudo-Japanese interiors with a posture of false surrender, thus resolving the dilemma of the breakthrough of the Qingxiang troops.
Even General Su Yu was alarmed when he heard about this, and he quickly consulted with the commander of the Third Brigade to select three reliable leaders with firm thinking, who were specifically responsible for the team's integration, integration, and response.
Because it was an unconventional operation, the regimental commander, political commissar and deputy regimental commander refused to accept this task for a while, and General Su Yu had to do their ideological work.
Dedication to the party, regardless of honor and disgrace, was finally transformed into a consensus between the three people, no longer passive, embarrassed and confused.
The regimental commander Tang Jingyan began frequent contacts with the enemy special Jiang Songping, the purpose of which was to gain the unconditional trust of the enemy and the special side, and to do a good job in internal meetings and propaganda, hoping that everyone in the regiment would strengthen their faith, not change their original intentions, and be ready to go.
In the same year, the Tonghai Self-Defense Regiment was officially incorporated into the Northern Jiangsu District Guard Regiment by the Japanese.
The troops were placed inside the Japanese and pseudo-Japanese, and no one expressed any doubt or discovered their strange movements, and they spent 167 days in peace.
On April 19, 1943, after obtaining the consent of the Japanese, Tang Jingyan led the regiment "anyway" and received heavy awards such as equipment and grain. The time was finally ripe for development, and under the notice of the Party Committee of the Central Soviet Union, they immediately launched armed violence and annihilated more than ten Japanese and puppet strongholds and public offices in one fell swoop with their collective superiority and strength.
【Conclusion】
The final victory of the Tonghai Self-Defense Regiment is inseparable from the flexible decision-making and bold judgment of our party's superiors. Luck and misfortune on the battlefield can happen at any time. The encirclement and suppression of the enemy, the rebellion of comrades, the sacrifice of comrades-in-arms, but no matter what the situation, everything is based on the overall situation.
Facts have proved that the Tonghai Self-Defense Regiment has performed outstandingly and excellently, overcome the deficiencies in frontal battlefield combat capability, reduced the combat burden of the frontal battlefield under the conditions of relatively backward equipment, and set a good precedent for the whole regiment to integrate the enemy and oppose the enemy.
During the period of internal incubation between Japan and The Japanese, not a single member of the Tonghai Self-Defense Force betrayed the party spirit and leaked party secrets.
This extremely special deployment also provided a blueprint for rich experience and a high degree of historical value for the study of military history after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War.
High risk and high reward must go hand in hand. This adventure of the Tonghai Self-Defense Regiment was a creative move to smash the Japanese and pseudo-conspiracy, and it was worth a try.
Nowadays, the smoke of war has long gone, we should not forget the heroic killing of the enemy by the martyrs, the military talent embodied in them is the crystallization of the collective wisdom of the legion, a chopstick is easy to break, but a chopstick is difficult to break.
Our party will take the lead in the battle, brave difficulties and obstacles, and under the encirclement and suppression of the enemy, break through again and again, attack again and again, and disintegrate again and again, and finally win the dawn of victory.
