And what glorious journeys are there? In order to excavate the resources of the anti-Japanese resistance and trace the history and culture, the course of his battle is briefly introduced as follows:
Li Yingru, author of the novel "Wildfire Spring Wind Fighting Ancient City"
"Wildfire Spring Wind Fighting Ancient City" is based on real examples. The prototype of our party's underground workers is Li Nan, director of the enemy engineering department of our Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region, and the prototype of Guan Jingtao, the leader of the uprising regiment, is Wang Pu, the district captain who led the "Fourth District Of the Pinghan Line Pseudo-Police Defense Team." On August 25, 1938, under the struggle of our party's underground workers, the fourth district of the Pinghan Line Police Defense Team of the pseudo-Jidong Autonomous Government, under the leadership of district captain Wang Pu, led more than 1,800 people to rectify the situation, which was the largest puppet army behind the enemy lines during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. In any case, at the behest of our anti-Japanese armed forces, the troops were ordered to go to Beidiantou Village in Tang County, Hebei Province , where the anti-Japanese base area had a good foundation ( at that time , the village was the seat of the anti-Japanese democratic government in Tang County ) for reorganization, and were warmly welcomed by the masses of the people in the border areas.
The movie "Wildfire Spring Wind Fighting Ancient City" plots against the scene of Guan Jingtaotu
On August 31, 1938, the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region held a welcome meeting in Beidiantou Village, Tang County, and nearly 10,000 people from all walks of life attended the meeting. At the meeting, the unit was officially named the "Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Army" by the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region and was subordinate to the third military sub-district. Li Yunsheng served as commander, Wang Pu as deputy commander, and Li Nan as director of the Political Department. There are three detachments (detachments of equivalent battalions), each of which has three brigades and a strength of 150 people per brigade. The military headquarters consisted of a mortar brigade and a radio station. The guerrilla army was equipped with light and heavy machine guns, grenadiers, and rifles of the "38th type", which was well-equipped at that time. After the establishment of the guerrilla army, they were stationed in the three villages of Dongyangzhuang, Fengzhuang and Weizhuang near Beidiantou. Guarding the three passes into the anti-Japanese base areas in the mountainous areas is also the full trust of the military region in resisting the Japanese guerrilla army.
On 31 January 1938, the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region held a meeting to welcome any troops in Beidiantou Village, Tang County
In September 1938, the Japanese army concentrated more than 50,000 people to carry out a "sweep" of our Jin-Cha-Ji anti-Japanese base area. At that time, the guerrilla army after anyway was holding a defensive line around Yangzhuangling in Tang County, the eastern gate leading to the base area. When the officers and men heard that they were going to fight against the Japanese Kou, they were very excited, and from top to bottom they held their breath of strength and wanted to vent the anger that had been suppressed by the Japanese Kou for many years; this opportunity finally came, and they wrote letters of invitation and determination one after another, saying that they would thank the masses for their support for the troops with the practical actions of winning the war, and present gifts to the base areas with the brilliant results of the elimination of the Japanese Kosovars.
On August 31, 1938, the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region held a meeting to welcome any troops in Beidiantou Village, Tang County
Yangzhuangling is located 5 kilometers northwest of the county seat of Tang County, which is the main road for the plain to enter the mountain base area, and the entrance is flanked by mountains that are not too high. To the northeast of this ridge is the Fengzhuang Into-Mountain Pass, to the southwest is the Weizhuang-jinshan Pass, and the three passes are the first line of defense into the anti-Japanese base area in the mountainous area. The guerrilla army obeyed the orders of the military region and blocked the enemy under the Yangzhuang Ridge, waiting for the delay and elimination of the Japanese before moving.
In mid-September, the Japanese army in Baoding gathered more than 1,000 troops and attacked the guerrilla army in two ways, directly attacking Yangzhuangling all the way, and adopting a roundabout encirclement tactic all the way from Weizhuang. The guerrilla army was not afraid of a strong enemy and actively faced the battle; on the one hand, it heroically and tenaciously used the main position of Yangzhuangling to resist the Japanese Kou; on the other hand, it adopted the method of close combat and division and annihilation against the enemy in Weizhuang to eliminate the Japanese Kou. The two battlefields were fought fiercely, among which the Yangzhuangling Blockade Battle was the most fierce, and at the most intense time of the battle, the Japanese army used to cast poison gas, posing a great threat to our army. However, our army was brave and tenacious, repelled more than a dozen attacks by the Japanese Kou, and always held on to the position of Yangzhuangling, without letting the Japanese Kou advance a step. After three days of fighting, the enemy was forced to retreat and retracted back to Baoding. During the three-day battle, the guerrilla army killed and wounded more than 200 enemy soldiers. The first victory of the guerrilla army since its establishment was achieved. He was commended by the general order of the military region and also won the praise and trust of the people of the border area.
On January 6, 1939, the guerrilla army was ordered to move to the Area of Tang County's Butler Zuo for recuperation, during which time a small number of officers and soldiers were dealt with for violating discipline and colluding with the Japanese and the japanese. The "Three Youth Leagues" organization was purged, the "three major disciplines and eight points of attention" education was carried out among the troops, the party organizations were established in the troops, and class education was conducted among officers and men to enhance their political consciousness. At the same time, the opportunists in the troops were cleaned up and the troops were purified.
In early 1940, the guerrilla army was transferred to the area around The Lost City in Tang County. The three detachments were stationed in the three villages of West Maze, Middle Maze and East Maze. On the one hand, we should guard against the enemy situation in the direction of Lingshan; on the other hand, in accordance with the requirements of the military region, we have carried out political army building and reorganization and reorganization training for the troops; the main contents of which are to carry out reform and education of the troops in accordance with the standards of the Eighth Route Army troops, improve the party organization and the party's living system at all levels of the troops, establish soldiers' committees, and practice military democracy; strengthen discipline building, strictly implement the "three major disciplines and eight points of attention"; and train officers and men in guerrilla tactics. Zhao Guotai, commander of the first guerrilla detachment of the Third Military Sub-district, led six companies and more than 800 people were scattered into the guerrilla army, supplementing the troops with a large number of party members and backbone forces, improving the advanced elements in the troops, and enhancing the quality of military and political affairs. After the reorganization, Wang Pu served as the commander of the guerrilla army, and Zhao Guotai served as the political commissar. In the same year, Wang Pu was introduced to the Communist Party of China by Li Nan, director of the Enemy Engineering Department of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region. After the reorganization, the Ministry took part in many battles to defend the base areas and to oppose "sweeping". After arduous combat, not only did they wipe out the Japanese puppet army in large quantities, but also tempered the troops and improved their combat capability. The troops were more adept at using guerrilla tactics, and their combat effectiveness was increasing day by day, gradually developing from an anyway army to a main force.
On August 20, 1940, after the Battle of the Hundred Regiments broke out, Wang Pu was ordered to lead the guerrilla army to break the wangdu to Wangjing section of Pinghan Road. With the cooperation of the militia and the masses, they took the initiative to attack, blew up 4 bridges, harvested thousands of pounds of power lines, and pulled out many Japanese and pseudo strongholds, dealing a heavy blow to the arrogance of the Japanese army. At 7 o'clock on the 21st, the guerrilla army returned to camp in Tianjiazhuang Village, Tang County, from the Pinghan Breaking Railway, and was attacked by more than 300 Japanese puppet troops. On November 16, the guerrilla army was surrounded by Japanese troops in Zhangjiayu, Quyang, Hebei Province, and after the enemy detected the garrison of our regimental headquarters, it attacked the regimental headquarters with the cooperation of aircraft artillery. At this critical moment, Wang Pu decided to personally lead the guard company to cover the breakthrough of the main force and organs led by Commissar Zhao and Chief of Staff Hu. After two hours of fierce fighting, the guard company suffered heavy casualties, leaving only Wang Pu and 12 soldiers. They were compressed on a small plateau, the enemy launched a charge again and again, and the machine gunner was unfortunately shot and killed. Wang Pu took the machine gun and strafed at the enemy, and the guard squad leader Zheng Herong urged him to break through quickly, Wang Pu resolutely did not retreat, and ordered the guards to break through. His spirit of being a pioneer influenced every warrior. Guard Cui Fushen said: "Death is death together, never leave the commander." At this time, Wang Pu was still worried about whether Zhao Guotai's political commissar led the army to break through the siege (it was later found that except for Hao Yuming, deputy director of the political department of the guerrilla army, and a few other officers and soldiers who unfortunately died on the way to the transfer, the main force of the guerrilla army successfully broke through). Determined to hold on any longer and hold the enemy back. The enemy's charge was repelled again and again, and the Japanese army, ashamed and angry, saw that it was impossible to encircle and annihilate the guerrilla army's large troops, so they concentrated artillery fire and bombarded the high ground, Zheng Herong was sacrificed, and Wang Pu's body was also injured five times, unable to move. So he again ordered the guards to break through as soon as possible, but no one would leave and continued to shoot at the enemy. At this time, Wang Pu's pistol only had three bullets left, he supported his body, fired two rounds at the enemy, and then shot the last bullet at his temple, heroically sacrificing himself, only 33 years old. Wang Pu was the highest-ranking general of the Eighth Route Army who died in the Hundred Regiments War, and was buried in the Jin-Cha-Ji Martyrs' Cemetery in the military city of Tang County.
In the autumn of 1943, Cheng Shaofu (center), the commander of the 42nd Regiment, and Ma Weihua (left), chief of staff, commanded the anti-"mopping-up" operation at DamaoShan
In February 1942, the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region reorganized the troops, the "guerrilla army" was abolished, and the guerrilla army was formed into two regular regiments of the Eighth Route Army, namely: the 41st Regiment and the 42nd Regiment of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region of the Eighth Route Army, which belonged to the three sub-districts of the Military Region. This marked the incorporation of the guerrilla army into the series of regular units of the Eighth Route Army and became the main force of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region and the Third Military Sub-district. In order to strengthen the operational needs of guerrilla warfare in mountainous areas and make the troops more mobile and flexible, each regiment abolished the "battalion" structure, and the regiment directly administered the company, with the company as the combat unit. Each regiment has 4 companies and 1 special service company, with the company as the combat unit to carry out guerrilla warfare: the regiment's direct subordinate machine gun platoon, reconnaissance platoon, communication platoon. The regimental headquarters has a political office, a staff office, a supply office, and a health clinic. In subsequent operations, the regimental headquarters was stationed in Beidiantou, Juncheng, Quyang, Wujiawan and other places in Tang County. After the reorganization of the troops, their combat effectiveness was greatly enhanced, and they served as the main force of the military region on many occasions to participate in anti-sweeping and defense battles against wheat harvest, and moved to Tang County, Quyang, Fuping, Wanxian County, Dingxian county and other places.
In the autumn of 1943, the 42nd Regiment defended machine gun positions in the Battle of Damao Mountain
In March 1943, the 3rd Battalion of the Main 2nd Regiment of the Military Region, the 7th Company of the Cavalry Regiment, and the 8th Company were added to the 42nd Regiment, which greatly increased the combat effectiveness of the regiment. In the autumn of that year, more than 40,000 people were concentrated in The Japanese Kou to carry out a large-scale sweep of the Damao Mountain area in the hinterland of our Jin-Cha-Ji base area, where the party, government, army, and logistics support organs of the Jin-Cha-Ji base area were stationed. The 42nd Regiment was ordered to block the Japanese Kou and defend the leading organs around The Damao Mountains. After more than 3 months of bloody fighting with the support of the local masses, the 42nd Regiment fought a total of 46 large and small battles with the Japanese army, killing and wounding more than 800 enemy, shooting down one enemy plane, and capturing a heavy machine gun, completely smashing the Japanese army's two attempts to encircle Damao Mountain twice. The Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region awarded the 42nd Regiment a general order, and the Third Military Subdistrict of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region awarded the 42nd Regiment the red flag of the "Defender of The Immortal Mountain".
In the autumn of 1943, the 42nd Regiment took the position of our army in the anti-"sweeping" operation in Damao Mountain, Tang County
During the War of Resistance Against Japan, the regiment fought many vicious and dangerous battles, destroyed the enemy in large numbers, defended the anti-Japanese base areas, protected the masses of the people, and made contributions to the cause of national liberation.
On August 10, 1945, the 42nd Regiment was re-added to the Yunbiao Detachment and 3 companies resumed the formation of the large regiment. On September 21, 1945, the 42nd Regiment was incorporated into the 1st Brigade of the Jijin Column (Zhao Erlu Column), which was the 3rd Regiment of the Brigade and was one of the main regiments.
In April 1946, the Jin-Cha-Ji forces underwent the first downsizing and reorganization, with the Ji-Jin (Zhao Erlu) Column and the Ji-Jin (Chen Zhengxiang) Column reorganized into the Ji-Jin Column, which was incorporated into the 10th Regiment of the 3rd Brigade of the Column.
In July 1946, in order to meet the needs of the large corps, the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region carried out the third reorganization of the troops, and the Ji-Jin Column was renamed the 4th Column of the Jin-Cha-Ji Field Army, and the 3rd Brigade of the former Ji-Jin-Jin Column was changed to the 10th Brigade of the 4th Column of the Jin-Cha-Ji Field Army, which was the 30th Regiment of the 10th Brigade of the 4th Column of the Jin-Cha-Ji Field Army. In November 1947, during the liberation of Shijiazhuang, the regiment attacked fiercely, taking the lead in attacking the city from the northeast corner. The second company coincidentally entered the enemy's den, captured the Shijiazhuang garrison commander "Liu Ying" alive, forced the enemy to surrender, and played the prestige of the main force regiment. The regiment marched into Jidong with the fourth column, and fought bravely and tenaciously in the battle to liberate Jidong, and the movie "Assembling Number" was adapted based on the regiment's combat examples.
In December 1948, the Central Military Commission implemented a unified number of the whole army, the 4th Column of the Jin-Cha-Ji Field Army was renamed the 64th Army of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, the 10th Brigade was renamed the 190th Division, and the regiment (30 Regiment) was changed to the 570th Regiment. The regiment has a very old foundation and strong combat effectiveness; it has always been the main force of the army and division, and has successively participated in suiyuan, Datong, Jining, Zhangjiakou, Baoding north and south, Zhengtai, Qingfengdian siege, Shijiazhuang attack, attack Cha'nan, turn into eastern Hebei, mainly attack new security, assist Taiyuan, and other campaigns to liberate northern China. In June, the regiment was transferred to the First Field Army with the 64th Army to carry out the task of liberating the northwestern provinces and regions. In July and August, he participated in the Battle of Fumei and the Battle of Lanzhou, and at the end of September, he entered Yinchuan and liberated the whole territory of Ningxia. During the Liberation War, the regiment moved to North China and Northwest China and participated in 29 major battles.
In January 1950, he was ordered to build the Bao (Chicken) Tiantian (Water) Railway, which was known as the "pioneer" in the construction of the Great Northwest.
In February 1951, the regiment entered the Korean War for the 570th Regiment of the 190th Division of the 64th Army of the Chinese Volunteer Army. He participated in the Fifth Campaign and actively defended Mount Ma liang. The main force was played, and after returning to China, the army was stationed in the east of Liaoning.
In March 1955, the regiment received Soviet equipment with the 190th Division on orders from the Central Military Commission, and the regiment was assigned to a medium tank battalion, an artillery battalion, and an anti-aircraft artillery company. Its comprehensive combat effectiveness has been markedly enhanced, and it was one of the most well-equipped infantry regiments in our army at that time.
In 1957, the regiment participated in the "Anti-Landing Campaign Exercise on the Liaodong Peninsula" organized and directed by Ye Shuai, and its excellent military quality was reviewed by Peng, He, and Nie Sanshuai.
In October 1958, the regiment accompanied the 190th Division in the exercise of "Mechanized Division Mobile Operations in the Coastal Defense Campaign", which improved the ability to resist landing operations.
In 1985, the Chinese people's liberation army was reorganized. The regiment was the 570th Regiment of the 190th Division of the 64th Group Army of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. The regiment has been stationed in Benxi City for 42 years and Dalian City for 6 years. Between 1998 and 2003, the 190th Division was incorporated into the 39th Group Army and changed to the 190th Brigade, and the artillery battalion of the 570th Regiment was integrated into the 39th Group Army along with the 190th Brigade; the third battalion was incorporated into the 191st Brigade, first with the 191st Brigade to the Liaoning Provincial Military Region, and later into the 40th Group Army; and the first and second battalions were organized into the Border Defense Regiment of the Jilin Provincial Military Region.
