History has its own life, it is like a person, both easy-going and self-respecting. ——Yu Qiuyu
General Wang Bicheng was brave and good at war, invincible, fought countless big battles, vicious battles, and beautiful battles, he was experienced in hundreds of battles, resourceful and judgmental, and repeatedly performed extraordinary feats, and was known for his "fierce generals" in the world.
On December 4, 1969, Wang Bicheng was transferred to the first deputy commander of the Kunming Military Region on the orders of Chairman Mao Zedong, and began a career of more than ten years.
After Wang Bicheng took office in the New Year, Tan Furen, political commissar of the Kunming Military Region, introduced himself at a meeting of cadres of the three major organs of the military region: "Deputy Commander Wang is a famous tiger general in Jiangnan, an old Red Army, an old revolutionary, and an old party member..."
Without waiting for Political Commissar Tan to finish speaking, Wang Bicheng took over the stubble and said: "I still have many shortcomings, and I ask you to supervise and help me in the future." ”
Wang Bicheng's Geng Zhishuang immediately won the trust of the cadres of the three major organs of the military region.
The news that Wang Bicheng was appointed first deputy commander of the Kunming Military Region soon spread abroad. When the remnants of the Kuomintang Li Mi were entrenched in the "Golden Triangle" outside Yunnan, after learning the news, they said: "Wang Tiger came to Yunnan, and his life was not good!" The countermeasures were immediately re-examined, and as a result, the "armed disturbance" was changed to "strengthened psychological warfare", with espionage as the main mode of activity.
Subsequently, they sent 8 "heart war" agents in the Lafu area of Menglian County to 12 people, who knew that as soon as these 12 people entered the interior, they were found, except for 1 who was killed, the rest were all caught by the border guards and militia.
At the beginning of the following year, they sent two more agents. The two men spied outside the town for three days and three nights, did not dare to enter, and quietly shrank over, reporting to their superiors: "The border guards have come to a new commander, and the investigation is too tight." ”
In July, Yang Shicai, head of the xidong station of the "Meixin Department" of the US-Chiang Kai-shek secret service organ, saw that no one dared to enter the country and had to personally lead the team, as a result, he stepped into Yingjiang County and was captured alive by two militiamen at Meng'erzhai on the Mang line. During the interrogation, he confessed: "My superior once said that Wang Hu from Jiangnan has come to Yunnan and cannot act rashly. I said that when he came with the surname Wang, I didn't believe that the border had been fenced. Now, I concede. ”
After several small victories, the political commissar of the military region Tan said happily: "Lao Wang, the tiger will fight the side, it must be 10 years." This means that Wang Bicheng will stay in the Yunnan Military Region for 10 years.
Wang Bicheng is on the side, very successful, and powerful.

On July 3, 1978, due to the Vietnamese authorities' continuous intensification of anti-China anti-Chinese activities in disregard of the advice of our Government, China was forced to decide to stop economic and technical assistance to Vietnam and transfer back engineers and technicians to aid Vietnam. By this time, the Sino-Vietnamese struggle had become fully open.
Subsequently, the Party Central Committee sent Yang Dezhi as commander of the Kunming Military Region to command the war against Vietnam, and Wang Bicheng was transferred to the commander of the Wuhan Military Region. Transferring away before the war was undoubtedly a great regret for Wang Bicheng, who was proud of fighting the war. Unable to go to the front himself, he sent his sons and daughters and some of the staff around him to the front with deep and majestic feelings. His children were not in the front-line troops, and he wrote letters, called, and encouraged them to go to the front lines to defend their country.

As a result, his son was in the line of fire, and his most beloved little daughter was also in the line of fire.
One day, Mrs. Chen Ying said to him, "Our daughter-in-law also wants to go to the front line." ”
"It was good! This is like my daughter-in-law. Wang Bicheng said happily.
The lady quietly told him: "The daughter-in-law is already two months pregnant, and the hospital leaders are not ready to let her go, but she herself is determined to go." ”
Wang Bicheng waved his hand and said loudly, "Let her go to the front line!" It makes more sense! Although I can't go to war, there are three and a half people in our family who participate in the war, and this wish can be fulfilled, and this ambition can be understood. ”
His daughter-in-law, who was pregnant, also went to the front.
After Wang Bicheng was transferred to the Wuhan Military Region as commander, a counterattack against Vietnamese self-defense was underway. Despite being nearly seventy years old and infirm and sickly, he often worked day and night in the war room, listened to reports on the battle situation in a timely manner, carefully studied the enemy's situation and our situation, fully grasped the situation on the front line, and was ready to contribute to the front line at any time. But the self-defense counterattack was soon over in victory.
In this self-defense counterattack, Wang Bicheng's son and daughter were both awarded the third class merit, and the three and a half members of Wang Bicheng's family went to the battlefield and were rumored to be a good story.
