Ma Benzhai was a very outstanding anti-Japanese hero in the anti-Japanese base area in Central Hebei during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and he led the Huimin detachment to participate in 870 battles, annihilating more than 36,000 enemy soldiers and winning countless battles. Ma Benzai was brave and strategic, once at the "request" of the Japanese army to dig a guard ditch for them, and a few days later Ma Benzai led the Huimin detachment to use these guard ditches to eliminate a Japanese puppet army; then he designed a japanese puppet army to line up and wait for him to go to encircle and annihilate...
Ma Benzhai
In 1940, the Japanese army in the Hengshui area of Hebei Province not only increased the encirclement and suppression of the anti-Japanese forces, but also shamelessly continued to sweep up the local rural people, which made Ma Benzhai and his comrades very annoyed. Ma Benzai decided to take the initiative and look for an opportunity to attack these unprincipled Japanese troops.
Therefore, the anti-Japanese detachment sent intelligence officers to constantly inquire into all kinds of information about the enemy, from military training to what vegetables to eat, and collected as much as possible. At one point, intelligence officers discovered that the Japanese had requisitioned a large number of civilians and dug a protective ditch on both sides of the road from Hengshui to Anjia Village, which was a stronghold of the Japanese army at that time. The correspondent hastened to report the news to Ma Benzhai.
Ma Benzai immediately realized that this was a good opportunity to outwit the enemy. So he discussed a plan with his comrades, summoned the representatives of the masses who participated in the digging of the ditch, and explained some things to them.
The compatriots who were originally very reluctant to work for the Japanese army suddenly became a hundred times more energetic, extremely cooperative with the arrangements of the Japanese army, and worked hard to dig a protective ditch for the Japanese army. As if digging a cornucopia, the villagers dug a ditch that was originally one meter deep to nearly two meters. The Japanese army extended their thumbs to them in relief, and the villagers smiled happily at the devils, and then the devils laughed too.
After a few days, Ma Benzhai led the Muslim detachment into action, and he first sent a small team to pretend to attack Anjia Village. At this time, the Japanese army in Anjia Village, which was empty of troops, realized that the main force of the anti-Japanese detachment they had been looking for for a long time had finally appeared, so they sent a telegram to summon reinforcements and came to encircle and suppress the anti-Japanese detachment in northern Hebei that was attacking them.
In fact, it was only a small detachment that pretended to attack Anjia Village, and they did not fight, but only made a huge appearance to show the devils that the real main force was ambushed on both sides of the road where the aviator ditch had just been built.
Sure enough, the enemy sent a puppet army of 150 people to an anjia village. Because they had suffered too many losses from the anti-Japanese guerrilla ambush, the puppet troops who came to support them inspected in all directions while walking, and the scope of their investigation was also extremely wide. So overall they don't travel fast.
Ma Benzai did not expect that the enemy would evolve so quickly, cunning as if they had been raising cattle for many years, so that they might find this elaborate ambush. Therefore, Ma Benzai ordered the fighters who pretended to attack Anjia Village to increase the intensity of the feint attack, creating a tense atmosphere. Sure enough, the small number of Japanese troops in Anjia Village estimated that they would be loyal to the emperor before they could support themselves, so they urged reinforcements to step up and rush to support.
The Japanese puppet army is no better than the Japanese army, and their lives are not so important to the Japanese. After receiving the notice, the puppet army did not dare to delay and stepped up the pace of marching into Anjia Village. As a result, the speed of the march increased, and they could not do the work of investigating the ambush. So these puppet troops just fired a few random shots at both sides of the road while stepping up their pace and marching forward.
Japanese puppet army
The puppet army soon entered the encirclement of the Muslim detachment, and at this time Ma Benzhai urged everyone to calm down and wait until the time was ripe. After a while, when all 150 puppet troops had entered the encirclement, Ma Benzhai ordered his comrades to start attacking, and to do their best to attack, and to fight as hard as possible.
The warriors changed their previous meticulous way of playing, this time not paying much attention to aiming, but only firing at the enemy with full horsepower, in short, to create a strong suppression force for the enemy. The puppet army was shocked by the powerful firepower, and they thought about how many regiments they had to surround themselves, so don't panic and fight back, quickly find a cover to hide.
So the fearful puppet army immediately began to search for cover, and they soon found the aviator ditches on both sides of the road. God help me, there are even ready-made trenches at the crucial time, and these Muslims will not choose a place to surround themselves. So they all jumped in happily.
According to conventional tactics, position warfare can be carried out immediately after jumping into the trench. But when they jumped in, they found that there was no way to carry out trench warfare, because the trench was a little deeper than the average trench, and its depth was just buried above the heads of the people. The puppet soldiers knew that it was impossible to fight in this deep ditch, and the only thing they could fight was the geese flying overhead.
Ma Benzai and his comrades were well aware of the situation in the gutters, and they threw away the guns that had been shot, pulled out grenades, rushed to the gutters, and threw them like sweet potatoes. Suddenly, the fire in the ditch was everywhere, and the puppet soldiers watched like wild boars falling into a trap as grenades flew in and smoked, but they could do nothing.
All 150 puppet armies were annihilated except for those who surrendered, and none of our fighters suffered casualties. What is even more gratifying is that this puppet army unit carried a large amount of materials, which were basically unused in this battle, and all of them were given to Ma Benzai and his comrades.
This battle can be described perfectly, and Nie Rongzhen, the commander of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region at the time, knew that Ma Benzhai had fought a beautiful battle and praised this brave Huimin detachment.

Comrades are greatly encouraged. Next, with these important supplies, they can do something important again.
Previously, the Huimin detachment had suffered an ambush by the Japanese army, and that loss was caused by the ghosts of one hundred and ten puppet troops stationed in Yuke Village. Ma Benzai thought to himself, this time they will have to pay the price.
Ma Benzai received information that the Japanese army was about to go to Yushu Village, so he hurriedly let the comrades change into Japanese military uniforms, simply trained japanese, carried Japanese weapons, and then set out for Yushu Village in a big way.
Comrades are brave and not afraid of death. Near the village of Yuke, two warriors volunteered to take on the most dangerous task ahead. Ma Benzai once again taught the two of them various words and movements, and then they went straight to the stronghold of the puppet army in the village.
After the two soldiers pretending to be Japanese correspondents reached the puppet army stronghold, they forcefully used Japanese mixed with Chinese to make the puppet soldiers immediately assemble to meet the imperial army. The puppet soldiers did not know what to do, let alone dare to be idle, and they all ran to the square without taking weapons and lined up in a square, waiting for the imperial army to come to review.
Ma Benzai did not hesitate to lead his comrades to learn the pace of the Japanese army and walked to the puppet army and walked to the puppet army. When the puppet soldiers were saluting these imperial troops who did not look like the imperial army, Ma Benzai and his comrades raised their guns and aimed them at the puppet army, like targets in training.
At that time, more than twenty puppet soldiers fell in response, and the rest immediately raised their hands and surrendered, they raised their hands faster than bullets. This time, the Huimin detachment led by Ma Benzhai won another great victory, capturing nearly seventy puppet troops and capturing a number of weapons.
After these two battles, the Japanese army was about to go crazy, and they sent the main force to surround and suppress the Huimin detachment. When Ma Benzai saw that he could not resist hard, he fought guerrilla warfare again, fighting if he could, and running if he could not fight. The Japanese were in a hurry to find them, so they ran around. As a result, Ma Benzai appeared like a ghost from time to time, and then very quickly eliminated many small forces that did not keep up with the main force of the Japanese army...
Muslim detachment
In the autumn of that year, Peng Dehuai commanded the famous Hundred Regiments War, in which the Huimin detachment led by Ma Benzhai played a huge role. Because of its outstanding achievements, the military region issued the detachment with a pennant that read, "It cannot be broken, it cannot be dragged down."
In 1944, Ma Benzhai, who had become ill and had become ill, died in Xinxian County, Shandong Province, and the whole army was deeply saddened. Chairman Mao's link reads: "Comrade Ma Benzhai will not die"; Zhou Enlai's link reads: "National hero, soldier of our party!" ”
Old China's national strength was weak, and we have always been millet plus rifles to resist Japan. After the Meiji Restoration, Japan's national strength was strong, and the Japanese army had advanced weapons, which can be described as a good hand. But Lai cards depend on the way cards are played, and General Ma Benzhai is an example of holding lai cards but playing them well.
