The first time he heard Pang Bingxun's name, he was still juxtaposed with General Zhang Zizhong, in February 1938 Pang Bingxun was transferred to Linyi to participate in the Battle of Taierzhuang, Pang Bingxun's troops were responsible for garrisoning Linyi, the Japanese Army's Banyuan Division launched a fierce attack on Pang Bingxun's troops, the position was shaken, and at that time General Zhang Zizhong led the 59th Army to personally rush to the aid, and the two defended Linyi with difficulty and won several victories in the Linyi War.
In fact, Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun once had a vendetta, it is said that during the Central Plains War, Pang Bingxun led his troops to almost behead General Zhang Zizhong, if he had not run fast later, he might have died, and because the two had this contradiction, when Pang Bingxun was dead in Linyi, when he heard that Zhang Zizhong was closest to him, he once thought that he was almost finished, fortunately, General Zhang Zizhong did not remember the old evil, and gladly went, the two shook hands on the battlefield and made peace, once admired, but what they did not expect was that General Zhang Zizhong died on the anti-Japanese battlefield, while Pang Bingxun rebelled against the enemy.
Pang Bingxun's troops had fought fiercely with the elite Japanese army, the losses were heavy, the worst time, the strength of the troops was less than one brigade, the old Chiang also remembered Pang Bingxun's contribution, and later added a lot of troops and equipment for Pang Bingxun's troops, and even specially sent a division under the jurisdiction of Pang Bingxun's troops, changing the record that Pang Bingxun had only one division for a long time, and this unit was later transferred to the North China battlefield, and there was some friction with the eighth route army.
However, Pang Bingxun is also very shrewd, each battle can not contribute, so it was saved, and later promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Twenty-fourth Group Army, although the troops supported 70,000 people, but Pang Bingxun at this time faced the Japanese army's sweep, somewhat negative meaning, but when the Japanese army swept up, but did not give the commander-in-chief face at all, plus Pang Bingxun's troops were originally scattered, so that the sweep was broken by the Japanese army, tens of thousands of troops collapsed overnight.
Pang Bingxun originally had injuries on his legs, he couldn't walk fast, when he fled, he was carried by someone with a sliding pole, and there were more than a dozen people from the 40th Army who were still around, and Lao Pang hid in a cave and didn't come out, but unexpectedly met an old acquaintance Sun Dianying, these two people were old acquaintances of the Northwest Army before, and the local people also thought it was okay, so they put Sun Dianying in, who knew that Sun Dianying had already surrendered to the Japanese, this time it was specially persuaded to surrender, and Pang Bingxun scolded.
But the Japanese army later sent a second lieutenant officer to persuade Lao Pang, Lao Pang gladly surrendered, this Japanese officer named Tanaka Tetsuo, although this person held an important position in the army, but his task is not ordinary, the East Asian Clerical Academy he graduated from, is specifically to train Japanese spy personnel, in order to persuade enemy generals to surrender on the battlefield if necessary, this person has been in and out of Lao Pang's military headquarters many times, but also an old acquaintance, at that time Pang Bingxun believed that he had tens of thousands of troops, so he insisted on not surrendering, but at this time tens of thousands of troops were wiped out. He was also a toothless tiger, and if he fought any longer, he would lose his life, so he simply surrendered.
