In 1947, the Chai Hu Lan Zi Incident occurred in the northeast that shocked the whole country, and our party suddenly sacrificed 5 division-level cadres, and chairman Mao was furious when he learned of this, and immediately ordered: We must let the enemy pay the blood debt and blood debts.
In April 1947, a meeting on the establishment of the army in the Ji-Cha-Re-Liao region was successfully concluded, and the delegation of the Eastern Hebei Region returned to the garrison under the escort of a cavalry company of more than 70 people.
On the way back, because it was too late, the delegation temporarily decided to camp in Chaihulanzi Village, and the cavalry company was stationed in Fengyingzi Village, 2.5 kilometers away, leaving only a part of the staff around the delegation.
No one would have imagined that not far from the village of Chaihu Lanzi there was a group of bandits with nearly a thousand people hidden, and this group of bandits was the five major bandit gangs that had been defeated several times by our army, led by Ren Fangwu and Bai Jinhui and their party.
The bandits were about to flee to the Kuomintang, but on the way they caught a villager in the village of Chaihulanzi, and from his mouth, the bandits learned that there were more than 70 communists hidden in the village, and even 13 senior cadres.
The bandits present were very excited when they heard the news, and they planned to launch an attack immediately as a token of surrender to the Kuomintang.
The vigilant sentries did not expect that there was such a group of bandits in the rear of our army, so that when they came to the front, the sentries mistakenly thought that they were another unit.
Before the soldiers of our army could see clearly, the bandits brazenly launched an attack on the comrades in the village, catching the sentries by surprise, but fortunately, the leaders of the village immediately organized guards to fight back against this group of thousands of bandits, and immediately sent people to the cavalry company for help.
But the commander of the cavalry company was frightened by the bandits' blatant attack, and he was afraid of death and gave him the wrong order: stand by.
After the delegation's helpers came twice, they all returned without success, and in desperation, the comrades of the delegation could only disperse and break through, but the enemy's firepower was extremely fierce, and it was not easy to gain a glimmer of life.
Fortunately, just after the breakthrough of some of the deputies was successful, reinforcements from the Second Garrison Regiment of the Twentieth Military Sub-district also arrived, and Chief of Staff Li Tianzeng immediately commanded the troops to launch a fierce siege of the enemy.
In the end, under the heavy encirclement and suppression of our army, the vast majority of the bandits were killed, and only a few bandit leaders escaped under the cover of their subordinates.
According to statistics afterwards, in the Chai Hu Lanzi incident, our army sacrificed a total of 22 people, including 5 cadres at or above the division level, who all made great contributions to the party and the country.
When Chairman Mao learned of this incident, he was extremely angry and grief-stricken, and immediately ordered: Severely punish the personnel of the cavalry company, and at the same time, we must make the enemy pay the blood debt!
In this way, the instructors and company commanders of the cavalry company who were not saved by the death of the high-ranking cadres of our army were dealt with by military law and executed by shooting.
And most of the bandit leaders who are on the run have also fallen into the net and received the sanctions they deserve.
On September 24, 1969, Ren Fangwu, the last bandit leader who had absconded for 21 years, was arrested and arrested, and in March of the following year, the 72-year-old Ren Fangwu was executed by shooting, which can also be regarded as a tribute to the martyrs' spirits in heaven.
Skynet is restored, and there is no leakage, and anyone who is an enemy of the country and the people will eventually be punished with justice!
