In June 1949, the 47th Army of the Fourth Field Army of the People's Liberation Army led its division to Xiangxi and launched the final battle against the remnants of the Chiang Gang and spy bandits entrenched there. One morning in the spring of 1950, a certain regiment headquarters received an outrageous and painful news: the five comrades who sent to Huang County (now called Xinhuang ) to buy vegetables. When they came back this morning, they took a boat to the corner of the Wotan River and were suddenly surrounded by a group of bandits. The comrades bravely landed and fought a bloody battle with the bandits. Unfortunately, there were many thieves and we were few. Four people were sacrificed immediately, and only one of them broke out and rushed back to the regiment headquarters to report the news. The leader of the
was furious and immediately sent a company to chase and suppress the bandits separately, but the bandits had fled one after another. The mountains are deep and the forests are dense and the roads are complicated. Where can I find it? The soldiers of the entire company lived in the mountains for most of the day, and found nothing. Everyone returned to the company with resentment. The next day I found a guide. This man claimed to be a living by harvesting firewood, and his family lived in the mountains. He had always been disturbed by bandits and hated bandits deeply. And said that the bandits who hijacked the ship yesterday were hiding on a mountainside in the north.
Company Commander saw that the fellow villager was about sixty years old, with gray hair and dressed in tatters. He was indeed like an old man from a farmer, so he asked him to guide a class to set out for searching. After that, he brought all the soldiers in the company and then supported him. Squad leader Li and the soldiers followed the old man, and walked around the mountains, crossed the two peaks, and came to a depression. Sure enough, they saw wisps of thick smoke floating in the deep forests and dense trees in the middle of the mountain. The old man pointed and said, "Look, the bandits are making fires there to cook." Squad leader Li observed carefully and saw that there were really people in the forest and there were still guard posts outside. Who else can you be a bandit? After searching for two days, I finally saw the bandits. Everyone was excited and wanted to pounce on them immediately and eliminate this group of evil enemies. At this time, the old man showed a panic expression and said, "Comrade Dajun, I have never been on the front line. I am old again. I can't fight with you! I'm going back." After that, he hurriedly followed the way he came and turned around and left.
When the old man just turned the mountain, suddenly, a gunshot was heard from the "horn", and then, "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..." Countless bullets flew from all directions. In an instant, the voices started to roar around, and I could only hear: "Kill! Bounce! Don't let the PLA go!" The roars were heard.
It turns out that the old man who was the "guide" was the uncle of the bandit leader. He pretended to be a garrison and led our group of soldiers into the encirclement pre-arranged by the bandits.
The squad leader knew that he had been trapped by the thief and hurriedly commanded the soldiers to scatter and resisted the attacks of the bandits. Who knew that the enemy was getting closer and closer, and more and more enemies were getting closer. Starting from 2pm and sticking until evening. Although the enemy's several pounces were calmly repelled by our soldiers, the encirclement was gradually shrinking. It was in broad daylight again, the weather was clear and bright, and it was difficult to move, so I could only fight hard. He resisted for a while, and saw that the bullets were almost over, and the troops behind him were not here to reinforce. Fortunately, night was about to come, and the sky gradually became dark. Squad leader Li ordered to fight and retreat, and break through and retreat in the vast dusk.
After breaking through the siege, the number of people was counted, and the soldier Chen Xiuchen disappeared. Chen Xiuchen is from Xiangxi, a young man from peasant background. He was originally captured by the Kuomintang and served in the army. He was only liberated during the battle between Northeast Liaoxi and West and recently joined the party. He is not tall, but strong, brave and good at fighting. Is it sacrificed now? Or was captured?
"Comrades, we can't leave Chen Xiuchen behind!" Squad leader Li said to everyone. "Yes, you have to find Xiao Chen back no matter what you say!" The soldiers of the war replied together.
"How to find a way?" asked Squad Leader Li. "Kill back!" The soldiers shouted firmly. "Okay! Let's kill you and search again. If Xiao Chen is captured, he will be taken back; if he is sacrificed, he will be found back his corpse."
"Finish the mission resolutely!" the soldiers responded. At this time, the bandits joined forces and chased them fiercely.
"Comrades, rush!" Squad leader Li issued an order. The whole class regained its majesty, and turned around and rushed towards the bandits.The bandits never expected that this group of people would turn back, and thought that reinforcements had been added, but they caught off guard and ran away in a hurry. The soldiers rushed to find Chen Xiuchen. It was only after the bandits were shocked that they could see clearly that they were the same group of people as before. So, with a whistle, he turned around from all sides, and for the second time he surrounded the soldiers tightly...
Besides, the company commander took the entire company. After the soldiers left, he set out to follow him. He didn't want to walk halfway, and came to the circumcised mountain path and the trees were mixed, and suddenly encountered another bandit and tripped up. By the time the bandits were defeated, the troops were rectified, and the soldiers were chasing the soldiers, they had lost contact with each other. After searching for it, it was only after dark that I heard gunfire sounds from afar. I followed the sound and happened to be surrounded by bandits for the second time.
charge sounded, and the company commander led a company of people to come from behind the bandits. The bandits did not expect that our army would still have a large army, and they were immediately panicked; the surrounded squad of soldiers knew that reinforcements had arrived, and they were even more energetic and rushed to fight bravely. The inside and outside beat the bandits to the point of falling, and they all ran around and fled.
After the troops met, the company commander ordered a search of the mountains and search for Chen Xiuchen. If Chen Xiuchen could not be found, he would never withdraw his troops. Chen Xiuchen was not actually captured and sacrificed. When the troops broke through for the first time, he was seriously injured in the leg because he fought with bandits and fainted on the side of the road. After waking up, he endured the pain and climbed into a wild bamboo forest, intending to hide, but unexpectedly he was discovered by a group of bandits and surrounded him.
This elbow, the carbine in his hand had no bullets, and the man couldn't stand up again. He watched the bandits come to the front, and a thought flashed through his mind. "Life can be sacrificed, and weapons will never fall into the enemy!" So he quickly took off the carbine, hugged the buttstock, gritted his teeth, and smashed the gun on a big rock beside him. With a "click", the carbine shattered. At the same time, four or five bandits jumped in front of him.
"Damn, you still have this trick." A bandit kicked up and kicked Chen Xiuchen, who was lying on the stone, and turned his back to the sky. "Let's say, there are a lot of people in your team? How many people are coming today?" Another bandit's voice was howling.
Chen Xiuchen spread his hands, grabbed the two bamboo stakes on the left and right sides of his body, sat up suddenly, opened his eyes wide, and shouted angrily: "Don't know."
"Hmph, I've dug you." The bandit who was asking about it took a step forward, crossed the gun, and pointed the bayonet at Chen Xiuchen's chest. Chen Xiuchen rolled his eyes with contempt.
"I really don't talk about it?" Another bayonet of the second big gun came. Under the hazy moonlight, two cold lights swayed in front of Chen Xiuchen's eyes.
"Don't know." Chen Xiuchen raised his head and sparked his eyes. "Click" a bayonet inserted into Chen Xiuchen's left shoulder, and blood was pouring out. Chen Xiuchen lowered his left hand, and his right hand still held the bamboo stake tightly to support him.
"There are so many people in your team? If you want to survive, just tell me." The bandit who stabbed Chen Xiuchen just now, with a big gun, and used the bloody bayonet tip to force Chen Xiuchen's throat.
"Beast, don't dream!" After Chen Xiuchen roared, he forgot the severe pain. He didn't know where the strength came from. He let go of the bamboo stake with his right hand, and trolled the big gun stretched in front of him, and suddenly rolled towards the bandit's feet with a "huh", and his body suddenly rolled towards the bandit's feet. The bandit couldn't stand and fell backwards. Chen Xiuchen reached out and pinched the bandit's throat.
"Click, crack, crack..." Two or three bayonets rose and fell one after another, and inserted them into Chen Xiuchen's body. In an instant, blood splattered, and Chen Xiuchen's entire body was pierced with seven holes, and he lie in a pool of blood.
Bandits are committing murder, and a team of soldiers from my search for the mountain walked towards the bamboo conifer. When the bandits saw it, they left Chen Xiuchen and pulled their feet away. The soldiers found the bandits running away, rushed over, chased and annihilated, and rushed across the ridge.
When Chen Xiuchen slowly woke up from his coma for the second time, it was already the fourth day of the waning moon. He felt trauma and pain all over his body, and the blood and cold dew dissolved together, soaking his body wet, and the throat felt like it was getting fire, which was extremely dry and extremely thirsty.He couldn't help it anymore, and he used all his strength to move inch by inch outside the bamboo bush, trying to find a sip of water to drink. I climbed for a while and took a break, but I haven't left the bamboo bushes for a long time. I couldn't climb anymore, so I had to lie down and use my right hand that was injured to slowly pull out the weeds beside me, put them in my mouth and chew them. With the slight grass juice, I barely soaked my throat, which was about to crack.
A glimmer of dawn gradually appeared in the east. From the gaps in the bamboo bushes, there were faint people outside moving. "Have the bandits not left yet? Is it because our army has defeated the bandits and is seeking out the remaining enemies? Do you know that I am still alive? I want to return to the arms of the army. The more Chen Xiuchen thought about it, the more he wanted to see his comrades. He bit his lips tightly, struggled to hold a bamboo , stood up swayingly, trying to see what happened. Before he stood firm, he fainted again with a severe pain of trauma.
When Chen Xiuchen woke up from a coma for the third time, he could only hear a voice in his ear calling his name: "Xiuchen, Xiuchen! "
When I listened carefully, the voice was so kind and gentle! When I opened my eyes, it turned out that the commander was standing in front of me with a smile, and quickly raised his body to sit up. The commander of the commander had already gently pressed him down and said, "Don't move, lie quietly! "
Chen Xiuchen only saw clearly at this time that he was sleeping on a hospital bed, in the medical room of the regiment headquarters. The military doctor and the company commander stood beside the regiment commander and nodded and smiled at him.
"Chief! Have all the bandits been eliminated?" Chen Xiuchen had long forgotten the pain and asked excitedly. The company commander came up to tell him that he had searched all over the mountains last night. At dawn, he found a few bamboos shaking in the bamboo forest. The comrades walked over and found him. He comforted him and said, "The bandits have been purged. The bandit leader was captured alive in the cave by our army. Some of the bandits were captured, some surrendered, and even the "guide" did not escape.
A smile appeared on the face of the young hero who had just been hit by seven swords and was covered in bruises.
