In mid-June 1930, the Military Commission of the 5th Army of the Red Army held an enlarged meeting in Daye County, Hubei Province, and in accordance with the spirit of the National Conference of Representatives of the Red Army and the decision of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission, the 5th and 8th Armies of the Red Army were merged into the 3rd Army of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, which was later known as the Red Third Army. At that time, the supreme commander of the Red Third Army was not called the commander of the regiment, but the commander-in-chief, and the great General Manager Peng was the commander-in-chief of this regiment.
At that time, the Red Third Army had more than 10,000 troops and had two armies under its jurisdiction, namely the Third Army and the Eighth Army. At the headquarters of the Seventh Regiment of the Eighth Army, there was a communications squad, and the squad leader was called Long Feihu, who was born in 1915 and was only 15 years old at the time. Don't look at him, he is only 15 years old, he is already a veteran of the party for two years and one year. This dragon flying tiger, at the age of 13, became the leader of the children's regiment. After joining the Red Army, although he was small, he was very clever, and the regimental commander took him with him as a correspondent.
On this day, the regimental commander judged that the enemy might make a big move according to the enemy situation discovered by the scouts, immediately wrote the situation on the cigarette box paper, ordered the dragon to fly the tiger, and quickly sent it to the head of the army. At that time, the conditions of the Red Army were very difficult, there was no telephone or telegraph, and in emergency, it was all sent by sharp and clever soldiers. When Long Feihu was about to arrive at the military headquarters, he suddenly found that there were more than ten enemies who were quietly approaching the military headquarters. Long Feihu was shocked, the army was in the rear, the guard force was also small, if this group of enemies sneaked in, they might not even have the opportunity to counterattack.
What to do? Dragon Feihu was in a hurry, quietly touched the back of these more than ten enemies, suddenly fired two shots into the sky, and then shouted: "Don't move, you are already surrounded, put the gun down." "This move, no one will be panicked, moreover, these ten enemies are already scared, when the gun sounds, they are frightened, and when they hear that they are surrounded, they are even more busy raising their hands. At this time, the guards of the military headquarters also rushed over and quickly dropped the guns of these dozen enemies. The military chief also came at this time, and they asked who had fired the gun. The men of the military guard pointed at Long Feihu and said that by the time we arrived, he had already taken the enemy prisoner.
The commander of the army was not only very surprised to see that It was Long Feihu who was a small soldier, but when Long Feihu was ordered to return to the army, he wrote a note and asked him to hand it to the regimental commander. Back at the regimental headquarters, after reading the note, the regimental commander said to Long Feihu, "The military commander ordered that you be promoted to platoon leader." When Long Feihu heard that he had been promoted, he didn't know what to do for a while, and he actually cried. The regimental commissar asked him what was going on, and he actually said that I should not be a platoon leader, and I would still be my squad leader. This sentence amused the regimental commander, but in order to make him a platoon leader, the regimental political commissar also did several days of work to get his thinking through. Who is Dragon Flying Tiger? He was once the prime minister's personal guard, and the chairman guarded the tiger in the "two dragons and one tiger" during the negotiations in Chongqing, and the founding of the country awarded the rank of major general.
