We read all the lead to present a different history.
In July 1948, during the Battle of Jinzhong, Yan Xishan's right-handi general Zhao Chengshou led the Seventh Army To the rescue, and as a result, he fell into the encirclement of Xu Xiangqian, commander of the First Corps of North China, on the way.
Therefore, Xu Xiangqian decided to launch a general attack on Zhao Chengshou's defensive position, Dai Liqing Village, Xugou County, at dawn on July 10, in which the 71st Regiment of the 24th Brigade of the Eighth Column was responsible for breaking through the north gate of Dai Liqing.
Dai Liqing defended the enemy and was the 10th General Brigade composed of surrendered Japanese troops collected by Yan Xishan.
How powerful are these Japanese troops?
Before the battle, the commander of the 71st Regiment, Beisha, sent a platoon to harass the enemy army, but unexpectedly, this platoon was slower due to the retreat, and was counterattacked by the enemy fire of the big temple in front of the village, and more than a dozen people were killed and injured at once. It can be seen that the Japanese army did not lose in that year.
At dawn on July 10, the 71st Regiment took advantage of the pre-dawn darkness to secretly move to the Great Temple of Dai LiQing Village. When they put the explosive package on the wall of the great temple, the enemy noticed it and immediately returned fire. However, the fire point had been sealed by the fire of the light and heavy machine guns of the People's Liberation Army, saying that it was too late, then fast, booming several times, the western wall of the temple was blown open, the sharp knife squad hit it with smoke, and the 1st Battalion Assault Company pounced and also attacked the temple gate.
In this way, the 71st Regiment took control of the Great Temple.
When the enemy saw this, he immediately sealed the north gate of the village. At this time, it was already dawn, rushing to the 1st Battalion outside the wall at the edge of the village, and was overwhelmed by the enemy's crossfire from the top of the village wall and in the direction of Nanzhuang, unable to raise its head on the open ground, unable to attack, and the casualties were soaring. Regiment Commander Beisha then ran with the command group. However, while passing through the open area of the charge, it was flanked by enemy fire in Nanzhuang, most of whom were wounded, and a machine gun bullet pierced Beisha's left foot.
When Beisha ran under the western wall of the temple in one breath, it was difficult to walk.
Because the enemy was too strong, the battle was over noon, and the 71st Regiment still did not break through the village.
Beisha wanted to personally observe the terrain, but his foot was injured and he could not walk, so he asked the guards to hold up their arms, carry a rifle in their right hand as a crutch, step by step, jump to the root of the northeast wall of the temple, and pick up a telescope to inspect the terrain between Dai Liqing's northeast and Nanzhuang.
Just as he was concentrating on observing The village of Dai Liqing, suddenly, he heard the sound of the mountain cannon firing exit, no, it was the enemy firing cannons! But he did not expect that the shell actually hit him, hitting the east corner of the temple, the exploding shrapnel shattered the bricks, blowing on everyone like wind and hail, the heavy machine gun that followed the North Sand was overturned, and the machine gun shooter and an infantry squad were wounded. Beisha's telescope and military cap also flew more than 20 meters away, and a fragment of mountain artillery shells penetrated Beisha's left cheek, knocking out four of his teeth.
It was difficult for the beisha regimental commander to speak.
At this time, enemy planes flew from the northwest. They were hidden in the sunlight, and beisha only heard sounds, but could not see planes. The enemy planes swooped down, so low that they almost hit the temple. Suddenly, in the northeast direction of the Great Temple, Beisha found a detachment of unknown numbers, advancing towards the 71st Regiment in an unsolicited battle formation. Ignoring the bleeding wound, he propped himself up with his hands, mounted the heavy machine gun, and ordered: "Prepare for battle." ”
However, there were only a few wounded around him, and it would not play a big role in fighting.
When Beisha was in a hurry, "boom-- " A loud noise, only to see the west of the north gate, a thick smoke, rising in the air, with dust rolling up and down, like a rainstorm of dark clouds covering the village wall, confused vision. Beisha was even more worried: if the assault team suffered heavy casualties, it would destroy the entire breakthrough plan.
Suddenly, there was a "Rush! Come on! Hurry up and keep up" shouts and charge horns. Is the enemy in the village breaking through? Or did our army break in? When Beisha was extremely anxious, Staff Sergeant Wang ran out of breath and shouted from a distance:
"Regimental commander, the front broke through, and the 3rd Battalion also entered the village."
"What's going on?"
"It was the enemy plane that blew up the village wall and helped us open a big hole." Staff Sergeant Wang went on to say, "The commander of the 1st Company was really clever, and immediately seized this good opportunity, taking his company, and rushed into the village from the smoke at once. Now the 2nd and 3rd battalions are engaged in street fighting, and the enemy is resisting house by house. ”
Beisha did not expect to attack the gap that could not be opened for a morning, but it was opened with the help of enemy aircraft!
In this way, the 71st Regiment broke into The Village of Dai Liqing.
Although the Japanese troops in the village were very tenacious, the People's Liberation Army was more tenacious than them, and the thirteenth column of the attacking force and the Taiyue troops all broke through the enemy's defense line and attacked the enemy's core from all sides. Zhao Chengshou used the Japanese army to defend Li Qing, ensuring that the only way out for his breakthrough to Taiyuan was blocked by the People's Liberation Army. The so-called "ace" of the enemy has become the card of the undead.
After the war, a soldier of the 71st Regiment made up a piece of allegro:
The enemy plane laid the wrong egg (bullet) to help me get through the difficulties. Old Yan gave a generous gift, and the "trump card" was not worth much. The "Imperial Army" paper tigers are afraid of eating grenades. Today's victory lies in Xu Xiangqian.
