General Zuo Quan
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Nationalist army that fought head-on was gradually defeated and retreated, while the Eighth Route Army, which insisted on resisting the war behind enemy lines, repeatedly inflicted heavy losses on the Japanese Kou, making the Japanese army invading China miserable.
Therefore, the strategic center of gravity of the Japanese army began to shift to the Eighth Route Army in the rear.
May 1942:
Okamura Ningji sat in Baoding, North China, personally commanded more than 40,000 Japanese troops, divided into multiple roads, and attempted to surround and annihilate the headquarters of our Eighth Route Army.
The soldiers and horses did not move, and the intelligence went first.
May 15:
The Japanese army took the lead in attacking the Taiyue Military Region in central Hebei and southeastern Jin, and Chen Geng's Taiyue Military Region, and as a result, it was thrown into the air.
May 22:
The Japanese army turned to the Taihang Military Region and drove by car from the direction of Liao County (Zuoquan County) and Heshun County in Shanxi. At that time, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army was in Matian Village, Matian Town, Liaoxian County. After urgent consultation with Zuo Quan, Peng Dehuai decided to transfer immediately.
23rd:
Asadamura Ikage
Zuo Quan and Peng Zong
The headquarters was immediately transferred and prepared to go to XiangXian county in Shanxi Province.
Peng always knew that Okamura Ningji was a very powerful ghost and must be treated with caution.
Sure enough, he was caught by General Manager Peng's words.
Okamura Ningji, an old ghost, used both light and dark hands, and secretly sent two special forces that had undergone strict training, wearing the clothes of the Eighth Route Army, and mixed with the army and the people, plus traitors and lackeys, to find the head organs of the Eighth Route Army together, which was extremely dangerous.
The names of these two special forces are masonry and Oikawa.
leader:
Squadron Leader of the 223 Wing, Shigeo Masuko,
Squadron leader of the 224 Wing, Momoyoshi Okawa.
Oniko: Shigeo Mashiko
These people also imitated the living habits of the Eighth Route Army, each of them was very skilled, possessed a large number of advanced communication equipment and sophisticated weapons, and each of them had a photo of the head of the Eighth Route Army. Each team also had 20 puppet soldiers to solve the problem of communication.
Their task was to destroy the leading organs of the Eighth Route Army.
Before the large troops set out, all of these devils changed into the costumes of the Eighth Route Army, quietly sneaked into the anti-Japanese base areas, and searched around for the movements of the head organs of our army.
The situation is extremely dangerous!
General Peng ordered the intelligence systems of various military regions to disseminate all kinds of true and false information about the transfer of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army to the outside world, so that the enemy would not know the specific location and destination of the headquarters, so as to confuse the public and confuse the enemy.
But the enemy is not a stupid dog, and they are not all stupid pigs.
Evening of May 24:
According to General Peng's order, Zuo Quan was responsible for the transfer of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, the Northern Bureau, the Party School, the logistics organs, and the Xinhua Daily Newspaper offices after the break, and the tasks were heavy, the situation was complicated, and the form was dangerous, and it was unprecedented!
Zuo Quan was with his comrades-in-arms
Zuo Quan (15 March 1905 – 25 May 1942), a native of Liling, Hunan Province, was a senior general of the Eighth Route Army, a proletarian revolutionary, a military strategist, and a member of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.
He joined the Communist Party of China in 1925; In December of the same year, he went to the Soviet Union to study; In 1934, he participated in the Long March and participated in the command of the forced crossing of the Dadu River and the attack on Lazikou. After the Long March reached northern Shaanxi, Zuo Quan led his troops to participate in the Battle of Zhiluo Town and the Red Army's Eastern Expedition. In 1936, he served as acting commander of the Red I Corps, leading the western expedition and taking part in commanding the Battle of Hill Castle. After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, he assisted in commanding the Eighth Route Army to go to the anti-Japanese front in North China, smashed the "sweeping" of the Japanese puppet army, developed and expanded the people's armed forces, and won many battles and battles such as the Hundred Regiments War.
Okamura Ninji, this old dog is indeed not in vain!
Morning of the 25th:
When the headquarters was moved to 25 kilometers southeast of LiaoXian County, it encountered the advance team of the devils, and Peng Zong and Zuo Quan had only three guard companies around them.
What about the devils.
There were tens of thousands of people outside, there were planes bombing in the sky, they also had advanced communication equipment, one by one, one by one, like a pack of mad dogs and wolves, all surrounded.
It caused a lot of casualties to the breakthrough of the Eighth Route Army.
The headquarters guard company quickly took control of two nearby hills to block the large Japanese forces.
For a time, gunshots rang out in the direction of Cross Ridge, and gun smoke filled the air.
Zuo Quan gave a death order to Tang Wancheng, the commander of the guard company:
"We must desperately cover General Peng's breakthrough!"
"Yes! Mission accomplished is guaranteed! ”
Tang Wancheng led more than thirty guards, braving the rain of bullets and bullets, to kill a bloody road and cover Peng Zong to rush out of the encirclement. He returned to meet Zuo Quan's breakthrough, but Zuo Quan insisted on waiting for all the people in the confidential section to rush out before he could leave. Because, he was worried that the confidential personnel would fall into the hands of the devil, resulting in the leakage of the headquarters password.
Zuo Quan forgot about his life and death, and covered the evacuation of groups of personnel one after another.
Left right at work
2 p.m.:
Zuo Quan led the last group of personnel to break through.
Just then, a shell fell from the sky and exploded not far from Zuo Quan's side.
He knew that the second shell would soon fall, but he did not dodge in order to cover the breakthrough of the last group of headquarters personnel.
(O Chief of Staff!) Why not take a look? )
Sure enough, the devil's second shell fell again, and Zuo Quan was shot and killed, at the age of 37, the highest-ranking general of the Eighth Route Army during the War of Resistance Against Japan. At the time of his death, he still held a revolver tightly in his hand.
In a hurry, several party school students braved the sound of gunfire to snatch out the body of General Zuo Quan and temporarily buried it in the jungle of The Cross Ridge in Matian Village.
After the ghosts withdrew, the headquarters guard company quietly sneaked back and buried the body of General Zuo Quan on the spot.
However, after Zuo Quan's sacrifice, the telegram sent to the headquarters was deciphered by Ritter, and the frenzied Mashiko advance team returned to look for it, planed out Zuo Quan's body for taking pictures, and published the photo in a Japanese newspaper, while the body of General Zuo Quan was exposed in the wilderness and was found by the Eighth Route Army several days later.
Zuo Quan's family of three

In this battle, the culprit was undoubtedly the Japanese army's "Mashiko Advance Team".
Our army suffered really heavy losses, with 293 casualties, 165 captured, and all the captured people were later killed, including:
Mr. Peng was furious!
On 31 May, he ordered the New 1st Brigade of the 129th Division to launch an attack on the devil's airfield in Changzhi. After the new brigade was ordered, under the command of deputy brigade commander Huang Xinyou, the first regiment quietly entered the Airfield of the Japanese Commander Jingjiazhuang at night, attacked the airfield and nearby strongholds, and blew up 3 bombers on the tarmac.
On October 10, 1942, the ceremony of burying Zuo Quan was held in Shanxi County, and Peng Dehuai, deputy commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, personally wrote and handwritten the "Inscription of Comrade Zuo Quan".
On October 21, 1950, 8 years after Zuo Quan's martyrdom, the coffin was moved from Xiangxian County to the Jinji Luyu Martyrs Cemetery in Handan City, Hebei Province.

Next, General Manager Peng found Ou Fufu, head of the special task force regiment of the headquarters, and said very seriously: We must immediately organize an assassination team in the way of a person and treat him as a person, and we must completely eliminate the Japanese Army's Mashiko advance team and leave no one behind.
Mr. Peng personally selected 30 elite generals from the army, each of whom was highly skilled in martial arts, and formed a special assassination team, with Liu Manhe as the captain.
In this way, a secret operation to eliminate the "Japanese advance team" quietly began.
General Peng sent an order to the intelligence offices of all military sub-districts: Sprinkle me with a net of heaven and earth, be sure to find the whereabouts of the devils' "advance team", find their foothold, and then say one word: "Shoot and kill!" ”
December:
The Shanxi Tainan Intelligence Office learned accurate information through the internal line, saying: "Around the Spring Festival, a small team of the advance team will go to the Dadexing Restaurant in Qixian County to gather and drink." ”
Beginning on December 28, in order not to attract the attention of the Japanese army, the assassination team entered the city of Qi County in batches after putting on makeup, and the weapons were mainly daggers, which made them more panicked than guns.
Big Year 30 Nights:
Liu Manhe led the assassination team to enter the Dadexing Restaurant in Qixian County in batches in various identities, waiting for the opportunity.
The devil was giggling in the private room, drinking and singing "Shakura!" Shakura! I didn't know that God had come for his life.
10pm:
The devils of the advancing team were already drunk and drunk, crooked and ugly.
The time has come!
Liu Manhe immediately locked the private room of the Japanese army gathering, and killed the pig in an urn, and everyone pulled out their daggers and killed the devils.
This group of devils is not an ordinary devil, all of them are masters, they will do kung fu, the room immediately fought a bunch, but the assassination team was prepared, so the battle ended quickly, this group of devils were all killed, the team members took off their heads and put them into their pockets, and quietly withdrew from Qi County, and came a god unconscious!
Blood debt, is to pay with blood!
Finally avenge General Zuo Quan and the other fighters in the headquarters!
For the enemy, it is necessary to counter violence with violence, and there is absolutely no mercy.
A day later, the heads of the members of the "Advance Team" appeared in Qi County, Changzhi, Taiyuan, Heshun and other places one after another, and the ghosts were frightened, and Okamura Ningji, an old ghost, thought to himself: If he continues like this, he must destroy the whole army! The order had to be disbanded so that the grass would not be cut down and eradicated.
The assassination squad won the initial battle, and the "curative effect" was remarkable, and immediately began to promote this combat method to the rear of the enemy in various military regions, and Peng once asked them to recruit soldiers with good skills, organize a team of armed workers behind the enemy's lines, and show the assassination and harassment actions to the enemy, that is, to make them afraid, to make them afraid, and to kill them all!
The death of Zuo Quan is a great loss to the revolution! After receiving the telegram of Zuo Quan's sacrifice, Chairman Mao was very distressed and ordered that Liao County in Shanxi Province be changed to "Zuo Quan County" and that it should not be replaced to commemorate this great general, but from now on, it is forbidden to use a person's name as the name of the city. This shows how much Chairman Mao attaches great importance to left power.
General Zuo Quan is immortal!
