In late September 1941, Liu Qiren, then deputy political commissar of the Third Brigade of the Shandong Column of the Eighth Route Army, led his troops across the Yellow River and marched into Yihezhuang. The main purpose of Liu Qiren's troops crossing the Yellow River this time was to conquer Yihezhuang. As for why the Third Brigade wanted to take Yihezhuang, it was because Yihezhuang was in the middle of the two base areas of Qinghe and Jilubian, in the throat area, and taking Yihezhuang would be able to connect the two scattered base areas and completely break the division of the two base areas by the Japanese puppet army.
[Founding Major General Liu Qiren]
To take Yihezhuang, we must first conquer Wangji Village, which is defended by puppet troops. When the 3rd Brigade led by Liu Qiren arrived here, the puppet army stationed in this village was quickly wiped out by the troops commanded by Liu Qiren after a short period of resistance. The recapture of Wangji Village only cleared an obstacle in the way of attacking Yihezhuang.
Liu Qiren knew that Yihezhuang was innumerable times stronger than the puppet army in Wang JiCun in terms of troop deployment and weaponry. However, even if the puppet army of Yihezhuang is strong, he has the confidence to destroy them all.
Liu Qiren did not stop at all, and quickly commanded his troops to take advantage of the situation and immediately marched towards Yihezhuang. When the troops soon arrived at Yihezhuang. The Yihezhuang that appeared in Liu Qiren's eyes was completely different from the appearance of Wang Ji Village, and around the Yihezhuang, a blockade ditch several meters deep had been dug, and only a few suspension bridges were used to connect Zhuangzi and the outside, and if a strong attack was launched, it would never be so simple.
As a deputy political commissar engaged in the ideological and political work of the troops, Liu Qiren felt that the guards of Yi and Zhuang were all puppet troops. In Liu Qiren's mind, the puppet army is Chinese, as long as we lay down our weapons and surrender, there is no need for us to carry out a strong attack. Doing so would save the lives of the puppet army and reduce the sacrifices that might occur in the course of the attack. Therefore, after ordering the troops to enter the combat position, he shouted at the puppet army of Yihezhuang, with the purpose of making the puppet army understand the situation as soon as possible and lay down its weapons and surrender.
Who knows, this puppet army thinks that the Eighth Route Army is just bluffing, and in their usual thinking, this long trench outside The Yihezhuang is the best position. In particular, the Eighth Route Army lacked the heavy weapons it needed to take down Yihezhuang, so how could it get by? Besides, even if you have a trench and the wall is so high, aren't you all living targets when you charge?
It was on the basis of this understanding that the puppet army of Shoubei Yihezhuang willingly treated the Japanese as dogs, turned a deaf ear to the shouts of the officers and men of the 3rd Brigade, and refused to surrender.

Faced with this situation, Liu Qiren believed that only an attack on Yihezhuang was the safest way. Unaware of the hypocrisy of the Boxer And Zhuang puppet army, he ordered the troops to carry out a tentative attack. In Liu Qiren's heart, it is necessary to judge from the counterattack of the puppet army what level of weapons and equipment this puppet army is in. When the tentative attack was over, Liu Qiren roughly understood the firepower configuration of this puppet army, considering that it was difficult to achieve victory by relying only on the few troops he brought with him and this puppet army.
Concentrate superior forces to better destroy the enemy. Liu Qiren immediately ordered a regiment of the Third Brigade stationed elsewhere to rush to reinforcements as quickly as possible, and after receiving Liu Qiren's order, the 1st regiment of the 3rd Brigade rushed toward Yihezhuang at the speed of a rapid march, and all the soldiers who participated in the battle had a wish, that is, to take Yihezhuang as soon as possible so that the base area could develop better and faster.
Who knows, just when Liu Qiren was dispatching troops to conquer Yihezhuang, this puppet army stationed in Yihezhuang also felt that they alone could not defend Yihezhuang and would sooner or later become prisoners of the Eighth Route Army, and also told his superiors to quickly send troops to reinforce.
After Liu Qiren learned of the puppet army's information that it wanted to reinforce Yihezhuang, he quickly changed the battle plan, and if the puppet army that passively stayed here and waited for reinforcements, it would be attacked inside and outside, and the entire army would fall into passivity. If we take the initiative to attack, first annihilate the puppet army that has come to reinforce, and then quickly retreat, it will not kill two birds with one stone. Liu Qiren's bold plan was endorsed by other comrades in the brigade headquarters.
As a result, Liu Qiren quietly withdrew the troops besieging Yihezhuang, leaving only a small number of troops to monitor the movements of Yihezhuang. Under the leadership of Liu Qiren, the large army quickly ambushed the puppet army troops that had come to reinforce, only to wait for the puppet army that came to reinforce them to die.
Just when Liu Qiren chose the best position to ambush the troops, soon, without any preparation, the puppet army that rushed to the rescue of Yihezhuang unconsciously walked into liu Qiren's ambush circle.
With a shout of call to me, all kinds of weapons in the hands of the soldiers of the 3rd Brigade were fired at this puppet army. This puppet army heard the sound of gunshots and grenades exploding everywhere, which made them frightened and frightened, and soon, they completely annihilated this puppet army that came to reinforcement, which was really a quick battle, exceeding Liu Qiren's originally estimated plan.
Liu Qiren did not revel in the results just achieved, he ordered a small number of troops to be left behind to clean up the battlefield, and the rest of the troops immediately gathered and quickly returned to Shiyihezhuang, never letting the puppet army guarding Yihezhuang find any flaws, and still dreaming of having a puppet army to support them.

The troops, who were immersed in the great joy of winning the battle, were in high morale. Liu Qirenbian and other comrades in the brigade headquarters studied the battle plan and how to take Yihezhuang with one stroke of the pen, so as not to have too many dreams in the night, and let the Japanese army know that after the recovery of Yihezhuang will be far away.
In the end, it was decided to attack Yihezhuang strongly, and according to the battle plan, the main attack was launched from the east of Yihezhuang, and other troops carried out feint attacks in other parts of Yihezhuang, and the task of launching a general attack on Yihezhuang was scheduled in the evening.
As the puppet army set up a blockade ditch in Yihezhuang, the soldiers of the two platoons who were ordered, with shovels and other tools, dug the blockade ditch into 4 ramps in a very quick way to create conditions for the large troops to launch an attack.
After the general offensive began, the Yihezhuang wall was bombarded by the mortars temporarily drawn by the 3rd Brigade, and soon the wall was blown into an opening, and the puppet army guarding The yihezhuang saw that the wall had been opened by an opening, and immediately had no intention of fighting, and the commander-in-chief of the defending enemy only fled with dozens of subordinates, and the puppet army that had not yet had time to escape obediently became prisoners.
In particular, a puppet army stationed at Lao Sandpiper's Mouth learned that the puppet army that came to reinforce Yihezhuang was annihilated by the 3rd Brigade, and the Yihezhuang with the largest number of garrisons was also conquered by the Eighth Route Army, and they did not have the courage to hold on to Old Sandpiper's Mouth, and did not wait for Liu Qiren to lead the troops to attack, and they had already abandoned the village in fright, and did not dare to stay there for one more day.
Under the command of Liu Qiren, the 3rd Brigade killed and captured more than 1,000 puppet troops, captured 2 machine guns, more than 1,000 long and short guns, more than 100 war horses, food and other materials. Not only that, thanks to the great influence of this victory, they successively conquered the strongholds of Laohuzui, Taiping Town, Guojiajuzi, and Tao'erhe, truly connecting Qinghe District with Jilu Border District.
