It was a starless night, the sky was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and the northwest wind blowing from the distant sea was bitingly cold, with a slightly salty smell in the wind.
A recruit who had been in the army for less than a year stood behind the concertina-shaped barbed wire holding a semi-automatic rifle with a bayonet attached. Behind him was a large iron gate painted grass green. It is bright and dark, shaking in the cold wind.
This is a division headquarters of the Field Army, code-named Taishan. The guard company of the division headquarters is responsible for the guards. The guards are divided into two layers. There is a sentry at the gate, and there is another gate about 50 meters away from the gate, guarded by two soldiers with submachine guns.
The sentry standing in front of the gate was pacing back and forth on the sentry post. He was waiting for the next sentry to come and change the guard. He could be laid off in twenty minutes. He rubbed his eyes vigorously to overcome the bouts of drowsiness. Suddenly, the lights of cars in the distance lifted his spirits. A jeep with a military license plate was flying towards him. The sentinel raised his hand to signal to stop. There was an ear-piercing sound of rubbing, and two officers wearing four-pocket military uniforms jumped out of the car, and ran towards the sentry across the parking line. The sentry raised his gun vigilantly and shouted: "Who is it? Stop!" Loaded. An officer held up his briefcase and said:
"From the intelligence department of the military region, there is an urgent document to be handed over to the division commander ." The sentinel was a little behind. Suspiciously, two officers had arrived in front of them. One of the tall officers grabbed the sentry's rifle and swiped it aside. He swung his other arm violently, and the sentry immediately fell to the ground. After a few clicks, bright car lights came on in the distance, and trucks full of fighters from the "Jinggangshan Corps" came one after another. The iron gate was quickly opened, and the convoy rushed through the gate.
The sentinels on the second cordon saw that the gate was open and several trucks had rushed in. Knowing that something had changed, they hurriedly raised their submachine guns and fired warning shots into the sky, and at the same time ordered them to stop. The truck stopped, and a group of young female workers in denim work clothes jumped out of the car. They held high the red flag of the Jinggangshan Corps, and walked forward step by step arm in arm... The singing of the female workers resounded in the darkness: Make up your mind, don't be afraid Sacrifice, overcome all odds, and strive for victory.
Facing the young female workers who looked down on death and sang generously, the hand of the sentry holding the trigger trembled. It took some courage to shoot at an unarmed woman. To any order, whether it is possible to shoot at such a moment. The sentinel hangs down his gun...
The sneak attack planned by Zou Ming was very successful. In less than half an hour, the division headquarters compound was completely occupied. The Taishan division commander and political commissar who were sleeping were driven out wearing trousers and vests, and the armory was opened. Under Zou Ming's re-defense, the division headquarters compound became a fortress, and five lines of defense were piled up with sandbags from the gate to the main headquarters building. Rows of machine guns are set up majestically on the sandbags, and heavy machine guns, anti-aircraft guns and "82" recoilless guns are also set up on the top of the main headquarters building. Zou Ming decided to use this place as his new headquarters. There are sufficient food and ammunition, advanced communication systems, and hundreds of trucks from the division's automobile battalion. Zou Ming's strength has greatly increased, nothing can stop him from launching a final attack, and the day when he will wipe out the "Red Leather Union" in one fell swoop is approaching.
Li Yunlong was woken up by Secretary Zheng in his sleep. When he heard the news, he was uncharacteristically not angry, which was as expected. The barracks of the troops to which he belonged spanned two provinces, and there were as many as dozens of them. Anyway, if the rebels wanted to make a move, they could just find one. If a division headquarters is occupied and the military remains indifferent, it will immediately cause a chain reaction , and this case is unacceptable. The commander of the Taishan Division is Li Yunlong's old subordinate, and he complained angrily on the phone: "No. 1, I have been fighting for so many years, and this is the first time I have been kicked out naked, these sons of bitches The rebels are deceiving people too much. Will the superiors allow us to shoot in self-defense? As long as you give the order, I will transfer the Red Army of our division. Within half an hour, I will not take back the division headquarters. You will cut off my head. If You can only be beaten and not be allowed to fight back. Then this soldier is no longer a soldier. I even took off my uniform to the rebels and let them be a soldier. I will go home and pick up the child. ? If you have any complaints, don’t send them to me. Send them to the Central Cultural Revolution Team. You can report the losses. Are there any casualties in the troops? "" Only the sentinel got a sap, suffered a concussion, and is still lying in the hospital. In terms of losses, it would be huge. Except for weapons and ammunition, all the documents in the confidential room fell into the hands of the rebels, as well as the password of the radio station, the distribution map of the permanent fortifications in the division's defense area, and the list of troops and weapons. Didn't grab it. " said the master.
Li Yunlong remained silent. The development of the situation was much more serious than he expected. For the enemy's agents, this was a golden opportunity, which was equivalent to handing over a large amount of top-secret information to the enemy, resulting The loss will be irreparable, and cold sweat oozes from Li Yunlong's forehead. He knew in his heart that it was not that simple to solve this crisis. It was impossible to have a solution that could affect the whole body by pulling one hair out. If you report the situation step by step and wait for instructions, this will certainly get rid of personal ties, but the enemy's secret agents will never wait. By then, those top-secret documents may already be on the desks of some heads of national intelligence agencies. In addition, the "Jinggangshan Corps" has obtained a large amount of weapons and ammunition. Zou Ming, who was the commander of the infantry regiment, will not understand the truth that soldiers are expensive and fast. , the city will soon be submerged in a pool of blood. Now I am afraid there is no time to wait, and immediate action is needed.
Li Yunlong had no time to think about it, and he decisively issued an order: "Notify the guard battalion to assemble immediately, prepare for battle, and encircle the headquarters of the Taishan Division." The sharp battle siren sounded, and the air in the headquarters suddenly became tense. Soldiers with steel helmets and full armor are gathering, and the staff officers of the headquarters are ready for battle. On the playground, the voices of the entire team of officers are intertwined with the roar of the engines of cars and motorcycles.
Secretary Zheng said to Li Yunlong worriedly: "No. 1, what if the rebels refuse to withdraw?" He took a breath and felt that it was a big deal. He changed his usual cautiousness, took a step forward to stop Li Yunlong, and said in a pleading tone: "No. 1, once the troops shoot, the consequences will be disastrous. There is no precedent in the country. Chairman Mao The speech about "February Countercurrent" is still in my ears, please think twice on the 1st, this action is no small matter, if it goes wrong, it will be a large-scale bloodshed..." Li Yunlong was walking out with a pistol holster, when he heard Zheng Bo's words, he stopped suddenly He hesitated, and he became impulsive, even the commander of the military region dared to stand against him, but he couldn't ignore the words of the great man Mao Zedong he admired. After fighting under Mao Zedong's hands for decades, this army grew from weak to weak under Mao Zedong's command. To be strong, every word of the leader is like Huang Zhong Dalu to him. Li Yunlong suddenly felt powerless and could not move. A few days ago, Mao Zedong, who was in a rage, said: "It has been claimed to be a revolution for decades, but in the end, the student movement is afraid. Who is afraid of the student movement? Beiyang warlords, Duan Qirui, who are afraid, suppress it. What is the result? The suppression The student movement did not end well, and they shouted the mass line every day. When the masses really rose up, they were terrified and hated to death..." Zheng Bo leaned close to Li Yunlong's ear and asked for instructions: "No. 1, see if we can ask the Central Military Commission for instructions. one time?
"Li Yunlong thought for a while, and finally nodded.
The encrypted military line was opened, and Li Yunlong leapfrogged the phone to the Military Commission Office. What happened in this city also shocked the Military Commission Office. After listening to Li Yunlong's report, a person in charge of the Military Commission's daily work simply instructed: : "You can come and take tough measures, and you will never be soft on those who dare to ignore the "Eight Points of the Military Commission". Don't be an idiot. The Shangfang sword given by Chairman Mao is here, and you must act boldly." First Vice Chairman of the Military Commission and Minister of National The phone in Lin Biao's office was also connected. Lin's instructions were brief: You can fight back.
Secretary Zheng said worryingly: "No. 1, what do you mean by 'tough measures'? What do you mean by 'can counterattack'? Do you use guns, mouths, or quotations? Why are there no clear instructions? You must know that the rebels are not only The cold weapons of big knives and spears, they are already armed to the teeth, they will honestly wait for us to disarm? No. 1, I just went to check the terrain, that Zou Ming is an expert, he has built a complete defense system, The firepower equipment has a great advantage. Once the war starts, the casualties of both sides will be serious. No. 1, you will not be able to explain clearly with a hundred mouths at that time, unless there is a written order from the Central Military Commission that you can shoot." Li Yunlong A pair of eyes shone coldly, looking directly at Zheng Bo: "Secretary Zheng, are you afraid?" Zheng Bo hesitated for a moment, then calmly met Li Yunlong's gaze: "Speak from the heart?" "Of course." "Report No. 1, I'm really scared, and I'm terribly scared, and I'm not a coward.
Soldiers are not afraid of dying in battle, they are afraid of dying unclearly, and even more afraid of dying at the hands of their own people, who will be blamed if they die. What we are facing right now is not the enemy, but the masses, the common people. To put it mildly, they can be called mass armed groups. They rebelled in response to the leader's call. To shoot at them, we become executioners for the suppression of mass movements. On the other hand, they are enemies. To put it bluntly, they are now a group of lawless armed mobs, not only threatening national security, but also threatening the lives of most residents in this city. As the No. 1 local garrison Chief, if you don't take decisive measures and cause serious consequences, you should be charged with dereliction of duty. In a word, this is in line with the idiom "Success is Xiao He, and defeat is Xiao He". We won't fight, and we won't fight . Number 1, you know Don. Quixote? "Li Yunlong shook his head and said:" I heard from my wife, what's wrong? "" He admired the chivalry of the Middle Ages, and lived in the illusion created by himself all day long. Over time, he took the illusion as reality, thinking that he had become a knight whose mission was to eradicate violence and save the world. He did a lot of what he thought was chivalry. The absurd things, but what was met was teased and ridiculed. Once, when he saw a huge windmill, he thought that the windmill was the incarnation of the evil devil. He bravely took up the spear to fight with the windmill, and was finally thrown black and blue.
In the eyes of the world, he is a crazy guy with absurd behavior. He lives in the long-gone history all day long, and acts according to the thoughts and feelings of the long-gone era. This will inevitably cause a huge contrast between history and reality. It is inevitable to be hit to the head and bleeding. "Li Yunlong was confused, and he said impatiently: "You have gone around in such a big circle, are you trying to persuade me not to be a church. Quixote, right? ""Actually, I admire his courage and righteous spirit, as well as his heroism in the face of evil, but unfortunately, facts have proved that no matter how good a person is, it is impossible to surpass history, let alone Stay stuck in the history that has passed, otherwise, the era you live in will punish you. On the 1st, in the army, I am just a small deputy regiment cadre. I can neither create history, influence history, nor be responsible for history. As for you...
..." Li Yunlong looked all ears.
"No. 1, you have the ability to make history or make history. You have the command of a large and well-equipped field army. Once you give the order to shoot, you will create a precedent throughout the country, which is to create history. Yours The name will also be recorded in the annals of history. As for whether it is a good name or a bad name, it depends on who has the right to interpret history." Li Yunlong smiled: "I still don't understand a little bit, I gave the order, of course it should be up to me Take charge, what are you doing?
""According to the practice of political struggle, the relationship between the chief and the secretary should be one of prosperity and one loss.
"Li Yunlong stopped laughing. Zheng Bo's words really shocked him. It seems that his mind is simpler. You have to admit that his words cannot be refuted. I didn't think so much before. Since it is a risky thing , There is no need to catch up with Zheng Bo. He picked up the phone and asked the cadres and ministers of the Political Department of the Army: "I am Li Yunlong, and now I am officially informing you that my secretary Zheng Bo is not firm in carrying out orders. I have decided to dismiss his secretary position and the cadres The Ministry has rescheduled his work, and I will ask him to report to you immediately. What? Don't think about the punishment yet, let him see the effect later. "Hung up the phone, Li Yunlong said to Zheng Bo solemnly: "You have been with me for so many years, and you understand my temper.
I like to go straight to the point, a man, talk and fart when you have something to say, your words are very straightforward and reasonable, just like what you said just now, you are a small deputy regiment cadre, and you cannot be responsible for history. That’s right, if I’m not in my position, I don’t want to seek his own government, but my situation is different. I must be responsible for history. Who made me the commander of the army? I admit that the opponent may be much stronger than me, but the opponent has drawn his sword, can I not shine the sword? I want to try my luck, even if my era is over, but I have to put an end to it, right? Xiao Zheng, do you take care of yourself?
"Tears welled up in Zheng Bo's eyes, and he swallowed and said: "Chief, thank you for protecting me, but yourself... what else can I do for you?" "Li Yunlong waved his hand and said lightly: "Go and report and work hard. If you can become an army commander or a military commander in the future, don't shirk your responsibilities. If everyone dare not take responsibility, then we There is no need for this army to exist, you have to remember! "Zheng Bo stood at attention and saluted the old chief with tears streaming down his face:" Chief, I remember, please take care, I bid you farewell. "Looking at Zheng Bo's back, Li Yunlong roared: "Let's go! "A grass-green military radio vehicle is repeatedly broadcasting the "Eight Articles of the Military Commission" and the military's ultimatum to the besieged "Jinggangshan Corps". The Taishan Division's divisional compound has been surrounded by the military guard battalion It was the tenth time a warning sound came from the loudspeaker of the broadcasting vehicle: "Exit the military organization immediately, hand over the weapons and the radio station, otherwise All consequences are at your own risk...
At this time, Li Yunlong hadn't really made up his mind yet. He very much hoped that those rebels would disarm and surrender under the pressure of the army.
He can even take a step back, as long as they evacuate the division headquarters, hand over the radio code and top-secret documents, and leave behind heavy equipment, even if they take away some light weapons and ammunition, he will admit it.
Facing these workers who used to be dutiful, Li Yunlong really couldn't do anything. They are not enemies, they are all the people who have been at the bottom all the year round. The laurels of the "leading class" have not brought them much actual benefit. With very low wages all year round, they can barely support the large number of people in the family. The heavy burden of life makes them see no hope. They live in low-rise and crowded houses with little possibility of improvement. Li Yunlong has seen some classmates who were workers came to look for Li Jian at home. They were wearing the work clothes worn by their father and covered with patches. In the mansions of princes and nobles, the eyes of those children always flashed the unique look of a frightened deer, as if they were ready to run away when there was any movement. Li Jian also often mentioned the family situation of some classmates with him: "Dad, I have a classmate who only has one small house, and there are seven people living in it. As soon as he enters the door, he has to go to bed, eat and do homework on the bed." Son What he said made Li Yunlong feel chills in his heart. He didn't understand why the common people were still living so hard after more than ten years of liberation? Do these working people really feel like masters of their own country? It is a crime to shoot at these An people who are already living very hard. Soldiers are not butchers, not executioners, not to mention that this army is soldiers from the people, and it is impossible to think about it. It's a sin. These muddle-headed common people, they are afraid of poverty and suffering, and when they hear that "the rebellion is justified", they scramble to rebel. Maybe they think that only rebellion can bring them new hope and improve their lives. situation. Comparing his heart to his heart, Li Yunlong participated in the "Jute Riot" back then, so why didn't he have this kind of mentality? At this time, Li Yunlong's surface was as calm as water, but his heart was like a churning pan of oil. Cold sweat kept streaming down his back, soaking his underwear. He kept repeating in his heart: folks, brothers, you guys Let's go, take away the weapons and ammunition, I will admit it.
Zou Ming, you bastard, even if you send someone out to negotiate, we can discuss it, please, can I kneel down for you, the commander of the regiment... He feels that he is about to lose his strength , his heart softened little by little, becoming like a ball of ooze that can squeeze out water. In this life, he has seen a lot of corpses, blood, guns and bullets. His heart has never softened, but now it is as soft as Spread the mud.
Wu Yushui, the battalion commander of the military guard battalion, held a submachine gun and asked Li Yunlong for instructions: "No. 1, please give me an order. I guarantee that the battle will end within half an hour." Consider time.
Time passed by every minute and every second, and the air was so tense that it seemed that it was about to freeze. The "Jinggangshan Corps" radio loudspeaker broadcast a song composed for Mao Zedong's poems: The enemy is surrounded by thousands of people, and I will stand still.
After the song, there was another wave of slogans: Long live the Jinggangshan Corps!
Soldiers in Jinggangshan vowed to live and die with the battlefield 2 Li Yunlong's heart hardened again, and reason seemed to have the upper hand. This group of rebels must disarm. Their destructive power is too great. If they are not stopped at this time, they may attack the "Red Leather Alliance" in the eastern district of the city tomorrow or even tonight. The leader of the "Red Leather Alliance" Although Chang Hai is dead, he has already trained many gunners. They still have tanks and "152" and howitzers in their hands. Their command system is still functioning effectively. Well, the "Red Revolutionary Alliance" can't sit still, they will fight trapped beasts, and even die together, detonating the explosives placed in the core position of the Engineering College, and those who are red-eyed will not care about the lives of others. Li Yunlong seemed to see the tragedy of the city covered by artillery fire, the death of thousands of people, the collapsed buildings, and the blown high-voltage power lines sparking blue sparks... He thought of a scene he had seen before. This is a documentary film of World War II, which was shot after the end of the street battles in Stalingrad. The city in the film has become a huge, lifeless cemetery. In the past wars, the most cruel and tragic is the urban street fighting. There is no clear front, no front and rear, no military targets and civilian buildings, no armed men and women and children. The house and land were repeatedly scrambled, the casualty rate was astonishingly high, and the whole city became a huge flesh and blood mill... Li Yunlong didn't dare to think about it any longer. If such a horrible ending happened, the chief of No. 1, who is the local garrison, would be the scapegoat sooner or later. The lesser of two evils, since this bastard's "Cultural Revolution" has driven me to nowhere, I have no choice but to fight with my back.
When the limited time came, Li Yunlong gritted his teeth and issued an order: "Attack..." The commando team jumped up, and the soldiers rushed towards the gate in a skirmish line. At this time, the broadcasting on both sides stopped, and the scene was surprisingly quiet, only the chaotic footsteps of the commando soldiers. The moment the troops approached the gate, the gunshots of the "Jinggangshan Corps" rang out. From the sandbag fortifications, On the top of the building, the intersecting firepower of light and heavy machine guns formed a concentrated fire net, and the terrifying gunshots were particularly crisp, and a company of soldiers who were on the attack suddenly fell down...
The last thing Li Yunlong wanted to see finally happened. He became furious: "Fuck it, how dare they shoot and shoot me...
..." He grabbed Xiao Wu's submachine gun and pulled the bolt to charge upwards. The guard Xiao Wu desperately rushed over and hugged him...
Wu Yushui, the battalion commander of the security guard, also roared angrily: "Fire me! Sniper, destroy those firepower points for me, cover with machine guns, and follow me with the whole battalion..." He grabbed a charge node and fired rashes while shooting. Howl rushed up first. Soldiers flooded the building.
The cover machine gunners used continuous firepower to beat the sandbag fortification into dust. The opponent's shooter was pressed in the fortification and did not dare to look up. After a few shots from the sniper, the firepower on the roof was muted. The shooter quickly took up the shooting position, and before he could pull the trigger, several more shots were fired, and the head of the backup shooter also exploded, this time no one dared to show his head again. The soldiers of the guard battalion performed various tactical actions, even rushing through the aisle fortifications to attack the building. In the building, gunshots were heard like popping beans, short explosions of grenades, and the screams of those who were shot were intertwined...
One of the staff officers turned pale and said to Li Yunlong: "No. 1, this is going to be a big hit." Li Yunlong was unmoved, and issued an order with a stern expression: "Quickly wipe out the remnants of the enemy, and all those who resist will be wiped out on the spot."
After all, the rebels were a rabble. Under the attack of the well-trained field army, the entire defense system collapsed in an instant. Twenty minutes later, the gunfire in the building fell silent, and the division headquarters compound was completely occupied.
The number of casualties was quickly counted. The rebels killed 48 people and injured 110 people. Eighteen troops were killed and 14 wounded. Zou Ming, the No. 1 servant of the "Jinggangshan Corps", still did not lose his military qualities before he died. He knocked down two soldiers who wanted to capture him alive with a pistol, and finally was beaten into a honeycomb by the battalion commander Wu Yushui with a submachine gun Zou Ming maintained his heroic spirit until his death. His eyes were full of anger, and he held a "54" pistol tightly in one hand, and a hand grenade with the cover unscrewed in the other hand. Even Li Yunlong, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, looked at Zou Ming's corpse, and felt a little bit of admiration after being shocked. He stared at Zou Ming's lifeless face for a long time, thinking, this bastard is a man, what a pity. When he turned around and was about to leave, his heart suddenly moved, and he couldn't help but look back at Zou Ming, and said in his heart, this guy is also a person who fights with a windmill with a spear in his hand. His era has long passed, and he Still in that era, so he has to die, huh? What is that guy with the spear gq? Yes, called Tang. Quixote.
When bloody bodies were pointed out to the building, even Li Yunlong, who had always been accustomed to the battlefield full of corpses, couldn't help turning his head away, unable to bear to look any further. He thought, Secretary Zheng is right, damn it, I am making history.
After the division building was recaptured, Li Yunlong issued a series of orders without hesitation, and the various departments of the field army quickly attacked, surrounded and forcibly disarmed all armed rebel organizations. The bloodshed in the division building had frightened them a long time ago, and they finally found out that the army commander is a master who is easy to do and not easy to mess with. The commander of the army has such a temper, and the field army he commanded is also very tempered. In the battle of the division building, the field army suffered more than thirty casualties. The leader of the rebel faction, who had just been disarmed, said something unpleasant afterward: "Damn, how can this be the People's Liberation Army? It looks like a pack of howling wolves." The words are ugly, but they are true. The Red Army Regiment to which the Taishan Division belongs is an old army formed during the Red Army period. This regiment is a bit evil, and almost everyone in the regiment, from the political commissar of the regiment leader to the cooks below, has a hot temper. Li Yunlong's evaluation of this group is: don't let people get right, don't let people suffer. On the Huaihai battlefield that year, this regiment showed a dual personality, called "Desperate Saburo and Popi Niu Er". The combat style is rampage and stalking. A regiment of the 18th Army of the Kuomintang is fully equipped with American equipment and is known as the "Tiger Regiment". This tiger group met the Red Army as a match, and both of them were screaming troops. As soon as the fire was received, the fight became inextricable. Within a few minutes, the battle became fierce. They fought for a whole day and night without stopping. , don't sleep, don't even take a breath, like a pigskin swim bladder, stick to it and can't get rid of it, you will be exhausted if you can't be beaten to death, the leader of the tiger is a little tired, where is such a naughty team? Is it over? The tiger group didn't want to pester them anymore, they fought all day and all night without even drinking their saliva, why did this rogue team look like clockwork robots? Unexpectedly, they would not be able to withdraw even if they wanted to. The Red Army was trying their best to fight the Tigers, as if they were tired of living, and they had to come to a dead end. After fighting fiercely for two days and nights, the Tiger Regiment finally got down. There was only half a company left in the Red Army Regiment, and the head of the regiment became the platoon leader. The brothers didn't have time to clean up the battlefield, and they all fell asleep in the pile of dead bodies, so that the commander of the regiment who came to reinforce thought that the entire army of the regiment was wiped out. Strange to say, how many years have passed, the members of this regiment have changed one after another, but the tradition has not changed at all, and it is still so evil. A recruit from the countryside who can't make a fart after kicking carbon with three feet, as long as he stays in this regiment for more than three months, he will immediately look like a different person, his temper will become fiery, and when dealing with other troops, he will immediately be angry Bringing out the unique arrogance of this regiment, it seems that everyone in the world counts as one, and no one can catch their eyes. Even Li Yunlong wondered, what's going on?
A few days ago, the Red Army was also rushed by the rebels and took away a lot of weapons. The order at that time was: Do not fight back when hit, and do not fight back when scolded. The whole regiment let others tidy up. In the history of this regiment, there has never been such a nest neck thing. Cai Jinming, the leader of the regiment, was so angry that he vomited blood twice.
This time, with the order to confiscate the weapons of the rebels, the regiment seemed to have been injected with stimulants. No wonder the rebels called them "howling hungry wolves". When the weapons were collected, the head of the regiment Cai Jinming exposed half of his body from the armored personnel carrier, holding an anti-aircraft machine gun in one hand, and shouting with a semiconductor speaker in the other. He only said his warning once and never repeated it a second time. An ill-informed leader of the rebel faction wanted to show a little heroism. He held up a pistol and led his subordinates to shout revolutionary slogans, expressing that he would live and die with the position. Captain Cai didn't intend to talk nonsense anymore. He moved his finger and made a "beep" The gun rang, and a 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun bullet accurately hit the wrist of the rebel holding the gun. The lethality of the large-caliber bullet was amazing. The wrist of the man was completely broken, and the palm and the pistol flew away. It's more than a foot. Cai Jinming fixed the situation with one shot, and the rebels present were almost frightened and scattered.
Under the attack of various troops, the rebels finally realized that the patience of this field army had come to an end, and anyone who thought that the army was weak and deceitful would be making a big mistake. The large-scale fighting in this city is over.
The news of this mass bloodshed quickly spread throughout the country, and the whole country was shocked. However, the Central Cultural Revolution Group was uncharacteristically silent and did not make any response, but those with sensitive political sense already felt that this might be the prelude to a storm.
A few years later, this field army had already changed defenses and left the city. The citizens kept mentioning this army in the chats after dinner: "...that army, tsk, tsk, it's so fucking... from the commander to the army... The soldiers below did not have any fuel-efficient lamps, and their tempers were so hot... But then again, if it weren't for this army, our city would have been flattened during the 'Cultural Revolution'..." Several years later, Located in the student dormitory of the "General Class" of Hongshankou National Defense University in Beijing, Zheng Bo, the deputy commander of a field army and major general of the army, is writing a military thesis. This thesis has nothing to do with strategy and tactics. It uses a unique angle and a novel idea Discuss such a theme "On the relationship between the character of the military chief and the tradition of the army".
...Any army has its own traditions, what are the traditions? Tradition is a temperament, a character.
This kind of temperament and character is often determined by the character and temperament of the first military chief when the unit was formed, and he injected soul into the unit. From then on, regardless of the passage of time and personnel changes, the soul of this army will always exist. Facts have proved that an army with fine traditions often has the soil to cultivate heroes, and heroes (or excellent soldiers) often appear not in the form of individuals but in the form of groups. The reason is simple. They were influenced by the same tradition and developed the same character and temperament. For example, during World War II, the P-39 "Flying Snake" Fighter Brigade of the 16th Aviation Regiment of the Soviet Air Force competed to produce 20 ace pilots who won the title of "Hero of the Soviet Union".
At the same time, the "Schud" squadron of a certain part of the Soviet Air Force produced 21 ace pilots who were awarded the title of "Hero of the Soviet Union". If you put aside the political point of view, from a purely military point of view, the 52nd Fighter Wing of the Luftwaffe in World War II was also a hotbed for training world-class pilots. Three world-class ace pilots appeared in the team competition at the same time. Based on the number of enemy planes shot down, these three pilots are all among the top three in the world. They can be called milestone figures in the history of air combat. They are: Erich. Hartmann shot down 352 enemy planes. Gerhard. Balkhene, shot down 301 enemy planes, Jingte. Leer, shot down 275 aircraft. The astonishing achievements of these three ace pilots left the ace pilots of the military powers in the world at that time far behind, unmatched. Kurdub, the number one ace pilot of the Soviet Air Force, set the highest record in World War II, shooting down 62 enemy planes, which is not as good as Jingte, who ranked third. A fraction of the number of enemy planes shot down by Lehr. This shows how important a troop's tradition is...
Supplement: I did not find a suitable prototype for the events described in this chapter. The more influential conflicts between the army and the rebels during the "Cultural Revolution" mainly included Shihezi in Xinjiang, Chengdu in Sichuan, and Xining in Qinghai.
On January 26, 1967, a bloody incident occurred in Shihezi City, Xinjiang. In the Production and Construction Corps of the Xinjiang Military Region in Shihezi, from January 17 to 27, seven "rebel regiments" successively attacked the armed forces. The "rebel group" with eight units forcibly took over the communication switchboard under the jurisdiction of the armed forces. On the afternoon of January 25, two thousand rebels from eight units entered the Second Automobile Regiment to cooperate with the rebels in the Second Automobile Regiment to seize power. Ninety-two commanders and fighters from the Independent Regiment then rushed to the Second Steam Regiment. At this time, the rebels of the Steam Second Regiment snatched 26 guns, 64 grenades, and 1,307 bullets from the Independent Regiment. By the afternoon, the number of rebels had increased to more than 4,000. At zero o'clock on January 26, both sides opened fire during the grabbing and counter-grabbing of guns, killing five people and injuring six others. On the same day, the rebels attacked the headquarters of the Eighth Agricultural Division again, had armed conflicts with the troops there, and fought gun battles elsewhere, killing 24 people and injuring 74 others. The military region believes that this is because the troops suppressed the gangsters when they couldn't bear it. But the Central Cultural Revolution considered this a serious counter-revolutionary incident to suppress the revolutionary masses. On February 11, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the State Council, and the Central Military Commission issued documents to impose military control on the Xinjiang Construction Corps.
In Chengdu, Sichuan, because the Chengdu Military Region supported the "Industrial Army" faction, it was violently attacked by the opposition faction. After the "Eight Articles of the Military Commission" was issued, on February 17, Ye Jianying wholesaled the Central Military Commission's open letter to the "Chengdu Workers' Revolutionary Rebel Corps" and the "Sichuan University '8.26' Combat Team". The open letter mainly promotes the "Eight Points of the Military Commission", pointing out that these organizations point their spearheads at the military region, sit-in demonstrations in the military region, and besieging the military region organs is a serious violation of the decision of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. Point the spearhead at the army and attack the military region organs, and they will be fully responsible for all serious consequences. Beginning on February 18, the Chengdu Military Region used planes to distribute this letter throughout the province. However, the rebels did not accept the army's warning, and they rushed to the military area but became more and more courageous. The military region arrested tens of thousands of people after retreating to the end. Quite a few put back soon.
On May 7, the problem finally became clear. Like Xinjiang, the rebels won. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China made the "Decision on Dealing with the Sichuan Issue", pointing out that some persons in charge of the Chengdu Military Region made a wrong direction and route in Zhizuozhong. Military District Commander and Political Commissar. The "industrial army" refused to admit that those rebel organizations were "revolutionary mass organizations", and the struggle between the two factions became more intense.
In Qinghai, the "Zhao Yongfu Incident" occurred. Xining city mass organization "8.18", with the support of students who came to Xining from Beijing to join forces, stormed the Qinghai Daily office, smashed and looted the newspaper office, and beat several people to death. And use guns stolen from other places to intimidate the PLA soldiers who work for them with force. The leading group of the Xining Garrison "Zuo Zuo" believes that it cannot be allowed to do anything wrong, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous. Then troops were sent to carry out armed siege on the rioters, ordering them to withdraw from the newspaper office immediately.
However, the rioters actually fired at the troops to provoke them, and the troops were forced to fight back. Some were killed on the spot, and the rest were expelled from the newspaper. February 23. When Zhao Yongfu, the deputy commander of the Qinghai Provincial Military Region, called Ye Jianying to report the situation, Ye Jianying said: "You fought right! You fought well!" This word spread in Xining as "Vice Chairman Lin called." Mao Zedong commented on the Qinghai incident: You can investigate it. If the students shot first, it would not be a big problem. If not, it's worth looking into.
After two investigations by the Central Cultural Revolution, a report was made to Mao Zedong that reversed right and wrong. Thus, the rebels won again.
On March 24, with the consent of Mao Zedong, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the State Council, the Central Military Commission, and the Central Cultural Revolution Group made the "Decision on the Qinghai Issue". At the meeting announcing this decision, Zhao Yongfu was arrested on the spot. If Mao Zedong hadn't said "don't kill", Zhao Yongfu would have been almost executed immediately.
In addition, there is a passage of Mao Zedong's speech on the student movement in the article, which was given by Mao when he criticized the working group sent by Liu and Deng at the beginning of the Cultural Revolution in 1966. The explanation quoted in the article is not accurate.
