"Why are you?" When he saw this South Korean prisoner of war, Zhang Zhenming, the political commissar of the regiment, suddenly widened his eyes.
The surrounding volunteer soldiers were stunned, the political commissar actually knew this prisoner of war?
Cao Dianzhen, a reconnaissance staff officer who captured the prisoners of war, scratched his head with some apprehension.
Could it be that there was some misunderstanding in this? Did he catch the wrong person?
"Commissar, do you know this person?" a soldier couldn't help but ask Zhang Zhenming.
Zhang Zhenming looked at the face of the prisoner of war carefully, and laughed out loud in the next second: "Hey, I said it! Don't be nervous, this thing is quite interesting......
What is the relationship between Political Commissar Jang Jin-ming and this South Korean prisoner of war?
U.S. military coats
On the night of December 31, 1950, the Volunteer Army and the United Nations Army launched the third campaign of the Korean War.
After our troops fired a round of artillery fire, the 38th Division of the 114th Army of the Volunteer Army quickly rushed to the enemy position.
While the main forces were attacking north, the 114th Regiment of the 341st Division was to cross the Han River to the south and prepare to take down enemy positions.
After many days of intense fighting, the fighters of the 341st Regiment were exhausted.
That night, the troops finally arrived at a safe place and decided to take a rest here.
As the political commissar of the regiment, Zhang Zhenming has been working at a high intensity these days, and he is almost unable to support it. After giving the order to recuperate, he began to look for a place where he could take a good nap.
Zhang Zhenming took a fancy to a straw pile and hurriedly walked over. As he approached, he suddenly saw a figure on the haystack.
The light is very dark at night, and the details are not clear. Zhang Zhenming got a little closer, and saw that this man was holding a map in his hand and wearing an overcoat - the kind only the US military had.
He suddenly became nervous and immediately prepared for battle. But when he noticed that the man had an Asian face, he gradually relaxed.
"It's Lao Guo, right? Zhang Zhenming thought that this was Chief of Staff Guo he knew. At that time, because there was no better warm clothing, some volunteer commanders and fighters would wear captured US military coats.
Maybe Chief of Staff Guo just felt that it was too cold, so he would wrap himself up like this when he slept! Zhang Zhenming felt that he had discovered the truth.
Now, Zhang Zhenming is very tired and sleepy, and he doesn't have the heart to think too much about it. After "confirming" that the other party was Chief of Staff Guo, he put his mind at ease, lay down on the straw pile, and fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.
About two hours later, Zhang Zhenming woke up in a small commotion.
It was still night, and it was pitch black. A soldier ran to inform him that it was time to leave.
Zhang Zhenming nodded and sat up immediately. After sleeping for so long, his spirits were much better.
Looking back, he found that "Chief of Staff Guo" was still lying motionless on the haystack, looking like he was asleep.
"Lao Guo, wake up, are you still sleeping?" Zhang Zhenming pushed the man. The man didn't move.
Zhang Zhenming said to the soldiers: "Chief of Staff Guo has also worked hard these days. Let's go first, and when he's slept enough, he'll follow. ”
In this way, Zhang Zhenming and the soldier left the "Chief of Staff Guo" in place and set off with the regiment themselves.
Capture the commander of the South Korean army
"So that's what happened. After listening to Zhang Zhenming's narration, Cao Dianzhen suddenly realized.
"In other words, the 'Chief of Staff Guo' that Commissar Zhang thought was actually this South Korean puppet army?" one of the soldiers looked at the prisoner of war, who was now having no love.
"Staff Officer Cao, how do you know that this person is not from our volunteers?
"Yes, we all want to hear it!" the other fighters looked at Cao Dianzhen one after another.
So, Cao Dianzhen began to tell everyone the story of his capture of this prisoner of war.
In fact, the matter was very simple: after the main force of the 341st Regiment left, not long after, Cao Dianzhen of the reconnaissance platoon also came to the edge of the haystack with the soldiers.
They were very tired and wanted to rest here. When Cao Dianzhen approached the haystack, he also saw the person "sleeping" on it.
At first, he also thought that it was his own person wearing the clothes of the American army, but when he looked closely, he found that something was wrong.
On his feet, this person is still wearing the leather shoes of the American army. This is very suspicious!
Coats can be worn casually, as long as they keep warm, but these shoes are different, they are all sizes, and it is unlikely that the American troops wear them well, and the volunteer soldiers wear them well.
Therefore, even if the shoes of the American army are captured, the commanders and fighters of the volunteer army usually do not wear them.
Cao Dianzhen immediately instructed the soldiers to control this person!
The man noticed that the warriors were coming around, and no longer pretending to be asleep, jumped up from the haystack to escape. But the soldiers of the reconnaissance platoon were all athletic, and they held him firmly and tied him up at once.
After realizing that he couldn't resist, this guy immediately became "docile", answered everyone's questions, and "patiently" tried to make everyone understand what he meant.
After a round of interrogation, Cao Dianzhen and the others roughly understood the identity of the other party.
This is a small officer in the South Korean Army, probably at the level of battalion commander. He found the straw pile first and decided to rest here. But he didn't expect that not long after he lay down, a team of volunteers came.
When the volunteer officer walked to the edge of the haystack, he immediately held his breath, nervous enough to suffocate.
There are so many volunteers in the army, how can he escape alone!
However, to his surprise, the volunteer officer did not react when he saw him, and fell asleep directly next to him.
Maybe he thinks of him as his own? This battalion commander has never been so grateful for his Asian face!
The battalion commander wanted to escape while the volunteers were asleep, but he thought that the volunteers were very alert and slept very lightly, maybe he would wake up as soon as he moved.
So, the battalion commander continued to pretend to be asleep.
Finally waiting for the group of volunteers to leave, the battalion commander just wanted to run, and suddenly found another sound of footsteps in the distance.
The battalion commander didn't dare to move again, so he could only close his eyes and pretend to be asleep. Unexpectedly, before he could enter the state, this time these volunteers found out that something was wrong with him and tied him up directly!
After listening to what happened, the soldiers couldn't help laughing, how unlucky this person was to run into the volunteers one after another!
End
On the battlefields of Korea, there are too many tragic battles and sad stories, but there are also occasional funny oolong incidents.
Our volunteer warriors are never defeated by a strong enemy.
They are the toughest steel, able to unite and defeat enemies even in the toughest of circumstances!
