In the TV series "Bright Sword", Li Yunlong was not convinced by the 772 Regiment, and threatened to teach the blind man how to put a gun back then, and teach him how to fight today. However, the 772 Regiment in history is the real trump card, the sharp knife regiment of the 386 Brigade, especially the first regiment commander Ye Chenghuan, a veritable tiger general.
Ye Chenghuan was born in 1914, and famous generals such as Xu Shiyou, Zheng Weishan, Li Desheng, and Xiao Yongyin are all hometowns in Xinxian County, Henan.
As the eldest son, Ye Chenghuan has shouldered the responsibility of taking care of the family since he was a child, herding cattle to subsidize the family, he silently endured the sun and wind, and sharpened a smart and mature mind. His father couldn't bear to watch him toiling in the muddy fields, so he gritted his teeth and sent him to a private school. In this way, Ye Chenghuan has become a rare scholar in the village, who can read and reason.
In 1929, the Red Army launched the Lixia Festival Uprising and formed the 32nd Division of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army (division commander Zhou Weijiong), and 15-year-old Ye Chenghuan joined the revolutionary team and became a soldier of the Red 32nd Division.
Like other generals from the Red Fourth Front Army, Ye Chenghuan is also a master who does not want to die in battle, and he must take the lead in every battle, and quickly emerge in the revolutionary ranks.
In December 1931, in order to completely smash the enemy's "encirclement and suppression", the Red Fourth Front Army launched a general offensive against Huang'an. Ye Chenghuan led a company to pursue a regiment of enemy troops. As the battle continued, the ammunition in the hands of the soldiers was exhausted, Ye Chenghuan was not afraid, pulled out a big knife from his back, shouted loudly, and the first one rushed forward, the soldiers were inspired, and they got on the bayonets one after another, and followed him to kill the enemy. The enemy was so frightened that they dropped their weapons and fled.
In this battle, Ye Chenghuan won the title of "Ye Laohu". There is also a general surnamed "Ye" in the Red Fourth Front Army who is also a fierce general, his name is Ye Daozhi, the same name as Ye Chenghuan, and called "Erye", the two later also teamed up, Ye Daozhi is the division commander, Ye Chenghuan is the division political commissar.
As a half-literate person, Ye Chenghuan was not only brave and fearless on the battlefield, but also carefully taught his comrades-in-arms to read and write, write letters, write slogans and engage in propaganda for the troops between battles.
In July 1933, the Red Fourth Front Army was expanded in Sichuan and Shaanxi, and Ye Chenghuan was promoted to the political commissar of the 11th Division of the Red Fourth Army, when he was only 19 years old, and he was joined by the later founding general Chen Zaidao.
After the victory of the anti-six-way siege, Ye Chenghuan was transferred to the political commissar of the 93rd Division of the Red 31st Army, which was the ace division of the Red Fourth Front Army, and was best at night attacks.
On March 28, 1935, the Red Fourth Front Army forcibly crossed the Jialing River, and the Red 93rd Division, as the vanguard of the whole army, was ordered to cross the Jialing River first. As a result, a company of the 274th Battalion of the 274th Regiment under the command of the Red 93rd Division was unfortunately discovered by the enemy under the cover of night, and more than 40 fighters were captured due to the lack of timely support from the follow-up troops.
In the early morning of the next day, the enemy tied up the captured Red Army soldiers to the river, and after a humiliating meal, all of them were brutally killed. This scene was clearly seen by the Red Army soldiers on the other side of the river, and everyone was filled with righteous indignation, and they asked the division commander Chen Youshou to fight and avenge the death of their comrades-in-arms.
Chen Youshou, the commander of the Red 93rd Division, was a violent temper himself, and he couldn't bear it anymore, he said that even if the division commander was inappropriate, he would avenge the tragic death of his comrades-in-arms, and then ordered the disposal of all enemy prisoners who were imprisoned. The next day, all the captives disappeared inexplicably.
Killing prisoners has always been a taboo for the Red Army, and the headquarters of the Front Army was very angry when it learned of this, and after the end of the war, the division commander Chen Youshou and political commissar Ye Chenghuan were both removed from their posts and transferred to the Red Army University to study.
On September 12, 1936, Ye Chenghuan was reappointed as the political commissar of the 93rd Division of the Red 31st Army, and the division commander was Chai Hongru. After Chai Hongru died, Wang Jinshan, who was one year younger than him, took over as the division commander. It can be seen that the killing of the prisoner had a great impact on Ye Chenghuan.
After the outbreak of the all-out Anti-Japanese War, the Red 93rd Division was reorganized into the 772nd Regiment of the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army, with Ye Chenghuan as the commander, Xie Fuzhi as the director of the Political Training Office, and Wang Jinshan as the deputy commander.
It stands to reason that the position of regiment commander should be held by Wang Jinshan, commander of the Red 93rd Division, but Ye Chenghuan is more qualified, and he is both civil and military, and he is no worse than Wang Luozi in war.
In October 1937, the 772nd Regiment fought with the Japanese army for the first time at Changshengkou, and Ye Chenghuan adopted the tactic of "absorbing the enemy to send reinforcements", annihilating more than 50 Japanese soldiers and winning the first battle. Since then, Ye Chenghuan has become more and more courageous, and has successively participated in important battles such as the ambush of Qiqian Village, the battle of Huangyadi, the ambush of Shentouling, and the ambush of Xiangtangpu, and has made significant contributions to the victory of the 129th Division on the battlefield of resistance against Japan.
The 772nd Regiment is also known as "the 772nd Regiment that attacks like a tiger, defends like Mount Tai, and wins a hundred battles" because of its ability to fight well and achieve brilliant results. The head of the regiment, Ye Chenghuan, also became a member of the tiger generals under the command of Liu Deng.
Master Liu Bocheng likes Ye Chenghuan very much and intends to cultivate it, after all, talents are rare. It is said that as long as Ye Chenghuan is in front of him to command the battle, his mood will instantly relax for more than half of the time.
At the beginning of April 1938, the Japanese army, with the 108th Division as the main group, the 16th, 20th, 109th Divisions and the Sakai Brigade with a total of more than 30,000 people, launched a siege on the Taihang base area in nine routes, in a vain attempt to eliminate the main force of the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop.
At this time, Ye Chenghuan was suffering from lung disease, which was so severe that he coughed up blood several times. Seeing this situation, Chen Geng, the commander of the 386 Brigade, couldn't bear Ye Chenghuan to go to the battlefield again, and intended to send him to the rear to recuperate for a period of time, and the 772 Regiment was temporarily commanded by Deputy Regiment Commander Wang Jinshan.
Ye Chenghuan knew that the war situation was urgent, and it was important to fight devils with a lung disease, so he insisted on resting after fighting this battle, but Chen Geng couldn't resist him, so he had to agree.
On April 10, the Japanese troops attacking from the east, west, and north had already occupied Liao County. The 772nd Regiment received an order to quickly assemble in Wuxiang, Taihang Mountain.
Although the Japanese army entered the base area of our army, it faced great resistance. Our army launched resolute resistance in all directions, and the common hatred of the people in the base area made it difficult for the Japanese army to make a difference, and it was difficult for the Japanese army to move forward.
On April 15, about 2,500 people of the 105th Wing of the Japanese army attacked Wuxiang, but the result was empty, and the lack of food further exacerbated the enemy's plight. As a result, the Japanese army planned to abandon Wuxiang and march along the Zhuozhang River to Xiangyuan.
After receiving the news, Division Commander Liu Bocheng planned to annihilate this part of the enemy, because this devil's baggage force was huge, and its ability to march at night was limited, so its action was bound to be slow, and our army just took advantage of the characteristics of being good at night combat and acting quickly, so it would definitely be able to bite them and take the opportunity to destroy them in one fell swoop.
After discussion, Liu Bocheng informed Chen Geng that the 689th Regiment of the 344th Brigade of the 115th Division was temporarily placed under the command of the 386th Brigade, plus the 771st Regiment and the 772nd Regiment of the 386th Brigade.
The Japanese army always thought that the Eighth Route Army was good at ambush warfare, but they did not expect that this time, our army would dare to pursue from behind.
At 7 o'clock in the morning of the 16th, after a rapid march, the 772nd Regiment finally bit the main force and baggage troops of the Japanese army in Changle Village, and set up an ambush circle.
When the Japanese baggage troops unnoticedly stepped into the encirclement of the 772nd regiment, Ye Chenghuan immediately ordered to open fire and throw grenades at the enemy. The grenade exploded in the midst of the enemy, instantly knocking the enemy into a daze, and the man turned on his back.
Immediately, Ye Chenghuan ordered the trumpet to be sounded, and the soldiers descended the mountain like fierce tigers and rushed towards the Japanese invaders. The Japanese army was divided into three sections by our army and forced to compress in the river valley, and in a moment it became a heavy dead and wounded, and the battlefield was chaotic.
Just when our army was about to completely annihilate the enemy, a Japanese army unexpectedly appeared, numbering more than 1,000 people, with four mortars, marching from Wuxiang to Yushe, passing through Changle Village, when they suddenly heard gunshots. They found the 105th Wing in trouble and hurried in for reinforcements.
The 689th Regiment had not yet arrived, so the left flank of the 772nd Regiment was exposed to enemy reinforcement fire. Ye Chenghuan had to urgently mobilize the 10th Company to quickly seize the Daijiayuan position and block the enemy's reinforcements. In the face of the enemy forces far beyond itself, the 10th Company fought bravely and held out for more than four hours, and finally all of them died heroically. At the critical moment, Xu Haidong, commander of the 344th Brigade, led the 689th Regiment to arrive in time and recapture the Daijiayuan position.
At this time, thousands of Japanese troops rushed to reinforce them, and Liu Bo admitted that the goal had been achieved, and he accepted it when he saw it, so he ordered the troops to retreat.
After Ye Chenghuan received the retreat instructions, he personally led a break in the spy company, he stood on a high slope and watched the withdrawal of the whole regiment, and kept observing the enemy's movements with a telescope.
The 8th Company was the last retreating unit of the 772nd Regiment, and the company commander You Taizhong wanted to ask Ye Chenghuan to go with them, but Ye Chenghuan refused and insisted on staying behind him.
You Taizhong didn't go far with the 8th Company, and Ye Chenghuan was unfortunately hit in the head by a bullet from the Japanese army and passed out on the spot.
The soldiers of the special service company hurriedly carried Ye Chenghuan backwards, and on the way to the station for treatment, Ye Chenghuan left the last words of the world in a semi-comatose state: "Hey, team, where is the team?" ”
When Master Liu Bocheng learned the news, he was taken aback and hurried to visit Ye Chenghuan.
At that time, Liu Bocheng leaned down, hugged Ye Chenghuan's head with trembling hands, and shouted "Chenghuan" one by one, crying bitterly and bursting into tears.
You must know that he didn't have anesthetics back then, so the German doctor cut 72 knives in the eye, and he didn't say a word. Now, in the face of his love for Ye Chenghuan, Liu Bocheng can't help it anymore.
In the early morning of April 18, Ye Chenghuan died heroically at the age of 24 due to his serious injuries, ineffective rescue.
According to the memories of General Wang Xinting in his later years, Division Commander Liu Bocheng had already appointed Ye Chenghuan as the deputy commander of the 386 Brigade and Chen Geng's deputy, but unfortunately he died in the battle of Changle Village. It can also be seen from Master Liu's arrangement that he has high hopes for Ye Chenghuan and intends to cultivate. If it weren't for the accident in Changle Village, Ye Chenghuan would definitely have an unlimited future, after all, he is Wang Jinshan's superior, maybe his achievements will not be as good as Chen Xilian, but at least he is also a lieutenant general. #头条创作挑战赛#
