Zhang Zongxun originally estimated that the only brigade could hold for three days, but he didn't expect the loss to be so big and lose so quickly, and the two brigades of the reinforcements were still on the way, and Zhuozi had already lost. After the enemy occupied Zhuozi Mountain, our army still did not clearly judge the enemy's main attack direction, and the Central Military Commission telegraphed that the enemy army may have three movements: 1. Stay in Zhuozi Mountain and do not move, 2. Advance to Liangcheng (still considering Liangcheng and Fengzhen as the enemy's main reinforcement routes), and the third is to attack Jining, and it was decided to concentrate the main force near Liangcheng in Maihutu to watch its development. Compared with other battlefields, North China's intelligence work has been very bad, and in other battlefields, our army should have obtained all the battle plans for such an important enemy situation within one to two days.

It was in this situation of no intelligence that on September 7, Fu Zhi's main force secretly advanced eastward through the flint dam north of the Pingsui Railway through the temporary 11th and 17th divisions of the 3rd Army and the new 31st division of the 35th Army. On the 8th, it arrived in the northwest area of Jining and assembled covertly, (using troops quickly and secretly and covertly).

Due to ineffective reconnaissance, our army did not learn until the evening of the 8th that Fu's troops had advanced eastward, and immediately turned the main force to Jining, and the advanced weaponry of our army also made Fu Zuoyi's troops suffer a lot。。。。。。。。。。。。。

At this time, the two military regions decided that the enemy would encircle Wei and save Zhao,-for-tat, besiege the city and send reinforcements, and the main force of our army would rush to Jining, including the 358th Brigade, the only brigade, Chen Zhengxiang's fourth column and two brigades, and the teaching brigade, and ordered Yang Su's first column to leave one brigade to guard Yanqing, and the other two brigades quickly came to reinforce, and the cavalry brigade, the special service regiment of the independent third brigade, the seventh regiment of the Suimeng Military Region, the cavalry regiment, and so on all rushed to Jining, forming an absolute advantage over the enemy troops under the city of Jining. Only Yang Chengwu's column and local troops remained in the Liangjin Military Region to continue the siege of Datong.

Our army concentrated more than 8 brigades and more than 40,000 people, and cooperated with the defenders of Jining to prepare to completely annihilate more than 13,000 people on the middle road of Dong Qiwu, the vanguard of Fu. Huang Xinting's 358th Brigade advanced to Bayingtan and moved closer to the only brigade that Zhuo Zi had withdrawn, Li Xiang's teaching brigade and Xiao Yingtang's 4th Brigade of the 2nd Column advanced to Sanguquan near Bayingtan, the 4th Column Qiu Wei's 11th Brigade advanced to Suji Station, and the 1st Column and 2nd Brigade arrived at the east of Jining City. When the enemy is going to attack Jining, he will concentrate his forces to carry out an all-out assault on the enemy's rear.

The decisive battle of Jining was opened. Our garrison in Jining consists of two regiments of the Suimeng Military Region, namely the 9th Regiment and the 5th Regiment, the guard battalion of the Suimeng Military Region and the 27th Regiment of the 3rd Independent Brigade of the Jinsui Military Region, with a total of 3 regiments and one battalion, commanded by Yao Zhe, commander of the Suimeng Military Region, and Wulanfu, political commissar. The Jining moat was deep and wide, and the city walls were equipped with cross-fire outlets. Outside the city, our army controlled the commanding heights such as Tiger Mountain and Wolong Mountain, which were condescending, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

On September 10, the enemy's Yang Weiyuan's 11th Division, Zhu Dachun's 17th Division, and An Chunshan's new 31st Division, with the cooperation of the Air Force, launched an attack on the positions of the People's Liberation Army outside the city. Approaching the city walls. The defenders put up desperate resistance. Inflicted heavy casualties on the enemy, Sun Yingnian, commander of the 31st Regiment of the 92nd Division, was seriously wounded, and two battalion commanders died. But the enemy continued to attack regardless of casualties. On the afternoon of the 10th, all the peripheral positions were lost, and several counteroffences were launched in a row, all of which failed to work, and on the night of the 10th, the rest of the troops all retreated into Jining City, preparing to defend to the death.

The main force of our two Jin Military Regions took advantage of the enemy's attack, on the 11th, formed a counter-encirclement of the enemy army from three sides, and launched a fierce attack, aiming to encircle and annihilate the Fu army under the city of Jining, the situation at that time was completely favorable to our army, and on the same day recaptured the position south of Wolong Mountain and the high ground of Tucheng Village, the three main divisions of the Fu Department, more than 10,000 people were in danger, there was a strong city in front, and it could not be attacked, and the PLA formed an encirclement and offensive posture after having absolute superiority, and could not escape, becoming a turtle in Wengzhong, in this desperate situation, Dong Qiwu had to take Jining with a desperate gamble, and waited for reinforcements, on the 11th, The enemy attacked Jining in the west and the south side, but was severely attacked by the defenders and failed to succeed. So he tried to retreat westward, but the retreat route had been cut off by reinforcements, and he was forced to stick to a small area northwest of Jining. At six o'clock in the evening of the 11th, all the main forces of the People's Liberation Army on the periphery of Jining launched a general attack on Dong Qiwu's department, and after fierce fighting, by the morning of the 12th, they captured Sanchakou, Naobao Mountain, Glass Map, Tianmen Mountain, Lime Mountain and other key points and a part of the Wolong Mountain position, annihilated most of the 11th Division, the 3rd Regiment of the 17th Division, a total of more than 5,000 people, (including 2,000 captured enemies), compressed the new 31st Division, the remnants of the 11th and 17th Divisions at the foot of Wolong Mountain and the narrow area of the southwest barracks, and attacked the headquarters of the Provisional 3rd Army and the headquarters of the 17th Division, destroying the radio station, The enemy had only one radio station left in the 31st Division, and the Fu Department was in danger.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Fu Zuoyi planned to send three urgent telegrams on the morning of the 11th, one to Dong Qiwu, the second to Liu Chunfang's Fourth Cavalry Division, and the third to Sun Lanfeng's Cavalry Division. The first telegram to Dong Qiwu ordered the besieged troops not to defend to the death, and to hold the three directions of our army's attack, and to the direction of Jining, we should draw out mobile forces to attack to the death, and be sure to take Jining as soon as possible, so as to have a foothold, and the second telegram ordered Liu Chunfang to ride the fourth division, quickly outflank Jining from the southwest, echo with the 101st Division on the left flank, and carry out counter-encirclement of our army under the encircled Jining city. The three telegrams ordered Sun Lanfeng's cavalry division to attack Jining in a roundabout way, and planned to attack Jining with the Temporary Third Army and the new 31st Division. At the same time, he urged Guo Jingyun, the main force of the 35th Army, and the 101st Division to quickly attack the encircling troops of our army to relieve the siege of the three armies.

At that time, the situation on the battlefield was extremely complicated, confusing, thrilling and intense, the enemy's three main divisions attacked our three regiments defending Jining, our main force eight brigades surrounded the enemy's attacking three main divisions, the enemy's 101st division, and the fourth cavalry division attacked our encircling troops from behind, in an attempt to rescue the encircled Temporary Third Army and the new 31st Division.

Both sides are trying their best to fight to the death, at this time whoever makes a mistake, and the other side can seize the opportunity, who can win, according to the battlefield situation at that time, Dong Department was compressed in the southwest corner of the city, there is no chance, sit and wait to die, as long as our army launches a continuous attack, it can completely annihilate this enemy, at this time, our army's front command made a big mistake, because of the first day of the battle casualties, so did not organize a continuous attack on Dong Department, the whole 12th day did not take any action. The enemy took advantage of the daytime on the 12th to reorganize, assemble, and reorganize. Attack Jining again.

Because the situation is urgent, Jining must be taken immediately, and Yang Weiyuan, the commander of the 11th Division, in front of all the officers and soldiers, picked up his saber and cut off his second section of fingers, pointed to the second section of his fingers and said; "There are those who dare to cower and not the former, there are so fingers". Therefore, "Yang Weiyuan's broken finger to attack the city" is a good story in the Dong Department. The officers and men of the unit also knew that when it came to the moment of life and death, they all fought to the death.

Although Li Ming aided a batch of tanks, the tank trainees were not so skilled, coupled with the sudden outbreak of the civil war, coupled with the lack of fuel for the tanks, the Kuomintang blockade was strong, and in the end, there were not many tanks to participate in the war, and finally the brothers of the national army were cheaper。。。。。。。。

On June 28, Mao ** sent a telegram to Nie Rongzhen, Xiao Ke, Liu Lantao, and Luo Ruiqing, leaders of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region:

After the Kuomintang fought a big battle, your basic task was to defend the place and seize the three roads (the northern section of Pinghan Road, Tongpu Road, and Zhengtai Road) and the four cities (Datong, Taiyuan, Shimen, and Baoding).

The Pinghan Campaign was held with all its might, occupying the entire Pinghan Road from Changxindian to Shimen (now Shijiazhuang), and occupying the two cities of Baoding and Shimen.

There are seven advantages to holding the Pinghan Campaign: first, it can concentrate the maximum number of troops; Second, it can open up Jijin and Jizhong; Three can cut off Pingjin's left arm; Fourth, it can train new teams; Fifth, it can increase manpower and material resources; Sixth, it can obtain the strategic cooperation role of the two regions of Rehe and eastern Hebei; Seventh, the line may be consolidated after it is captured. Therefore, I hope that you will organize the Pinghan Campaign with all your strength, prepare for it within half a month, and be ready to attack.

After the victory of Pinghan, he entered Jin with no less than 20 regiments and 40,000 people in three columns of the main force, acting as the main force to seize Shanxi, first cooperating with various districts in Shanxi, seizing the two lines of Zhengtai and Tongpu, sweeping away all enemy strongholds except Taiyuan and Datong, so that the five districts of Jijin, Jinsui, Luliang, Taihang, and Taiyue were all together, and then the camera captured Taiyuan and Datong.

The attack on Pinghan, Zhengtai, and Tongpu is a siege war, and it is hoped that the siege technology will be trained immediately, and more yellow ** will be prepared, and the yellow ** factory will be processed day and night.

It takes six months or more to take the capture of the Three Roads and Four Cities, but this task must be completed.

Liu and Deng have another task, and they can't cooperate with you to fight Shimen with the main force.

For the Pinghan Battle in the pipeline, Mao ** had high expectations. On July 2, he sent a telegram to Nie Rongzhen and other leaders of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, asking them to do their best to conceal their attempts in the process of preparing for the Pinghan Campaign, so as not to alarm the Kuomintang army prematurely.

Since the army of Liu (Bocheng) and Deng (Xiaoping) could not cooperate with him in the battle, Nie Rongzhen deeply felt that it was not appropriate to rashly launch the Pinghan Campaign, and advocated uniting with the Jinsui Military Region to first fight the situation in northern Shanxi, so he asked the Central Military Commission on July 4: "Without the cooperation of Jin, Hebei, Luyu (Liu and Deng), it will be difficult to carry out the instructions of the central authorities. It is recommended to spend half a month to get the cooperation of Jin Sui to lay down Datong. At that time, Nie Rongzhen wanted to postpone the Pinghan Campaign and fight Datong first, considering that there were 21 divisions and 5 corps of the Kuomintang Central Army stationed on the Pinghan Road and the (North) Ping (Tian) Tianjin Front, while there were only 7 divisions of Yan Xishan in the area north of Taiyuan, Shanxi, which was obviously much weaker in comparison.

On July 5, Mao ** replied to Nie Rongzhen: "I agree with your plan to attack Datong." Wang ordered Zhang (Zongxun), Luo (Ruiqing), and Yang (Chengwu) to plan carefully, make full preparations, and resolutely seize them. At the same time, prepare to annihilate Fu Zuoyi's troops attacking us. ”

However, Mao ** did not give up the idea of organizing the Pinghan Campaign. On 6 July, he sent a special telegram to Nie Rongzhen, once again emphasizing the great significance of the Pinghan Campaign, asking for great preparations, and still hoping to fight the Pinghan Campaign first.
