As the saying goes: chaos makes a big deal out of it. Due to the great variables of the chaotic world, opportunities and challenges coexist, so many talented and capable people often can

In 1928, Wang Daoen was born into a poor peasant family in Yinan County, Shandong Province. When Wang Dao'en was first born, his father and three uncles were forced by the pressure of life to work as coolies in the Coal Mines of the Japanese, living a life worse than death. When Wang Dao'en was four years old, he began to herd cattle for the landlord's family. When Wang Dao'en was 13 years old, he entered the literacy class opened by the Communist Party, learned a lot of revolutionary principles, and became the leader of the children's regiment in the village.

In 1943, the 15-year-old Wang Daoen set up the village youth rescue chairman and militia instructor to help the Eighth Route Army do a good job in logistics. On August 13, 1945, Wang Dao'en joined the Eighth Route Army. Due to his outstanding performance, before the Battle of Huaihai, Wang Daoen became the squad leader of the 6th Squad of the 5th Company of the 226th Regiment of the 76th Division of the Eighth Column of the East China Field Army.

The Battle of Huaihai was the largest of the three major battles, in which all 600,000 troops of the East China Field Army and the Central Plains Field Army participated in the battle, and the strength of the Kuomintang army was once increased to 800,000 people. Although the strength of the two sides is very different, the PLA has the support of the broad masses of the people, many soldiers within the Kuomintang have also sided with the PLA, and there are also Kuomintang soldiers captured when they fought Huang Baitao.

On November 7, the day after the Battle of Huaihai, Wang Daoen's unit met the Kuomintang Linyi Security Brigade. The combat effectiveness of this security brigade was not very good, and after making contact with our army, it quickly retreated. Our army quickly attacked, and the reconnaissance squad led by Wang Dao'en was at the forefront, and when the troops searched for a village, they learned that the second regiment of the enemy's security brigade was stationed in the village, preparing to cross the river early the next morning.

At that time, the large troops had not yet come up, and if they did not take the initiative to attack, it was easy for the Kuomintang army to escape, and in this case, Wang Dao'en quickly took control of the highlands on both sides of the enemy camp. Wang Dao'en divided the class into three groups, the first group drove the machine gun at the intersection to ensure that the fire blockade was carried out at the intersection, and the other two groups were condescending on the side of the hill, and the grenade lid was all open.

After occupying the favorable terrain, Wang Dao'en shouted below: "Listen to the Kuomintang troops below, you have been surrounded by three columns of our army, and I urge you to lay down your weapons and surrender immediately, otherwise you will all be reimbursed." "At that time, the sky was not yet light, and the enemy did not know how many people our army really had, so he did not dare to take any risks, so he could only surrender to our army, and finally more than 1,500 people of the enemy's entire security regiment were captured by Wang Daoen and 8 people. The next morning, when the commander of the enemy regiment discovered the true number of our troops, he was ashamed and committed suicide by jumping into the river.

On December 15, 1948, Huang Wei's corps was completely annihilated, and the commander of the corps, Huang Wei, was captured. The troops who cooperated with Nakano and the army that blocked Liu Ruming, Liu Yannian's Huaye troops were also rebuilt, and Su Yu's strength reached 400,000 at one point. Su Yu set up seven blockade lines for these dozen columns, and encircled the two corps under du Yuming's group, 8 corps, and 22 divisions in a narrow area centered on Chen Guanzhuang, two kilometers from north to south, and 15 kilometers from east to west.

On December 16, in order to cooperate with the Pingjin Campaign and stabilize Fu Zuoyi's clique, the Central Military Commission ordered Hua Ye to enter a rest and only besiege Du Yuming's clique. During the recuperation period, Huaye's logistics department transported 800,000 kilograms of pork to the front line, and each soldier who participated in the war was also given five packs of cigarettes.

During Hua Ye's recuperation, the kuomintang troops were still honest, but Qiu Qingquan's troops were still very arrogant. Qiu Qingquan graduated from the Whampoa II And the Army University in Berlin, Germany, with deep military attainments, and he has always been very unconvinced by the defeat of this war, and he has never given up on trying to break out of the encirclement.

At two o'clock in the morning of December 28, 1948, a division under Qiu Qingquan's unit encountered the 226th Regiment of huaye's eighth column in the process of breaking through, and the two sides fought fiercely for one night at Liuji Village, north of Bengbu. The 2nd Battalion of the 226th Regiment suffered heavy losses in the process of blocking the Attack of the Kuomintang Army, and only seven soldiers of the 6th Squad of the 5th Company of the Reserve Were left, and the squad leader was Wang Daoen. In an emergency, Wang Daoren decided to lead the seven fighters in the squad to launch a counterattack against the enemy who was trying to break through in front of him, although the number of enemies in front of the position was two hundred times that of them.

Wang Dao'en divided the seven soldiers into two groups, and after entering the village, he soon found that it was an enemy artillery position, which appeared to be an artillery company. Wang Daoren made a gesture to his comrades-in-arms and suddenly shouted at the enemy: "Brothers of the Jiang Army, you are surrounded, lay down your weapons, surrender your guns and do not kill." ”

One of the enemies opened fire, the bullet passed through Wang Daoen's face, wang Dao'en shot through one point, immediately killed several enemies who tried to resist, and shouted: "Whoever resists will kill him." The Kuomintang troops had just occupied the village, and they didn't know how many people from the Plaster had come, so they began to surrender, and an officer raised his hand and said, "Don't shoot, I surrender." But the officer quickly bent down to grab a machine gun, and was immediately knocked down by Wang Daoen, and the rest of the people saw that several officers were killed, so they laid down their weapons, and Wang Dao'en's sixth squad captured more than 100 enemies.

After disposing of the captives, large forces of the Nationalist army began to counterattack, and hundreds of enemies approached them. Wang Dao'en felt that he could not hold on, and it was better to launch a counterattack, and to launch a counterattack against the enemy's strongest core fortifications, he and his comrades collected hundreds of grenades and began to charge the enemy.

When the fifth company and six squads led by Wang Daoen approached the enemy bunker, they saw the dense corpses in front of the bunker, and these sacrificial PLA fighters were the six companies that served as commandos, and this company sacrificed all the soldiers from the company commander to the soldiers when launching an attack on the enemy bunker.

Wang Dao'en locked the target on the enemy's largest bunker, which is also the core of the enemy's mother's bunker, after approaching the enemy's core bunker, Wang Dao'en and his comrades frantically threw grenades at the enemy bunker, Wang Dao'en alone threw out hundreds of grenades, although only a few grenades were thrown into the enemy bunker, but it really frightened the enemy, and the enemy inside the bunker issued a fierce cry. The enemy was a little frightened and began to walk out, and more than 100 people surrendered to Wang Dao'en.

After the outbreak of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, Wang Dao'en joined the Korean War with the 26th Army and participated in the Battle of Chosin Lake. During the battle with the US army, he was seriously burned by the napalm bomb thrown by the US army and was sent to the rear hospital for treatment for more than 40 days before recovering. Wang Daoen won the title of second-class combat model once, successively serving as squad leader, platoon leader, company commander, deputy battalion commander, battalion commander and other positions, and later transferred to the local area to participate in the work.
