Chapter 227 Attacking the Heart Section 4 The New Look of the Veteran
The tremendous power of this psychological warfare against the Japanese army is showing makes Yang Bangzi stunned! When a whole fully loaded Japanese squad lined up in front of him, he didn't believe his eyes!
In the past few days, he has returned to Kawaguchi Town, this time, the new-style rectification movement and the reorganization of the army, the senior deputy political commissar and the people from the newly sent political department of the military region have erected an exemplary model together, and this matter cannot be reported to the military region without Yang Bangzi's decision, so Yang Bangzi came back to see what kind of model this is?
Looking at the materials, it is interesting, this is neither an old Red Army soldier who came from the old Soviet area, nor a local soldier born and raised in northwest Hebei after 37 years, a look at this person's experience is really shocking! His identity before participating in the Eighth Route was actually the Imperial Allied Army! And before he became the Imperial Army, he had served as a soldier in at least four different miscellaneous **, and Yang Bangzi knew at a glance that this was a veteran oil!
It's not bad if this kind of person doesn't get rid of the eight-way team, how can it still be erected as a typical one, looking at the materials behind it, plus the explanation of the senior deputy political commissar, Yang Bangzi only then roughly understood what was going on.
It turns out that this new style of rectification and army rectification is very different from the one in 41, and the one in 41 is mainly to screen people with more complex ingredients in the team and people with chaotic backgrounds, to put it bluntly, it is to get some unreliable people out of the team, and many good people have indeed been wronged in this process, and even Yang Stick has been put aside for several months.
This time, however, it is mainly based on unity and education, no matter what your background and composition, as long as you support our party and support the resistance against Japan, you are a good comrade. To put it bluntly, education and transformation are the mainstay. Therefore, this model has deep educational significance.
It's an interesting story. Let's talk about it in detail, because this has a lot to do with Yang Bangzi's military career in the future!
This person's name is Wang Liudou, the eldest brother is called Wang Yidou, and he gave birth to a long fighter, and when he is the sixth, he is called Wang Liudou. With the long and chaotic years of the war, there is no way to accurately verify some of the real information about him, because he was captured from the devil's imperial army. There is no original file, and some of the words he himself said at that time may have been true and false, false and real because of some scruples.
For example, some people who are familiar with him say that he was born in 1918, he himself said that he was born in the fall of 1923, and more recently he himself said that he was born in the fall of 1923.
There is also chaos, such as his military experience, he was captured with him as a puppet army of the Eighth Road, and some people say that he collected money three times to sell Ding for others, and then ran back to sell it again. In 1937, he was arrested (whether he was arrested or sold on his own initiative, there is no way to investigate), and worked in the 8th Company of the 79th Regiment of the 27th Division of the 30th Army of the Kuomintang for two years.
Others say that it was his brother who was arrested in 1937, that his brother escaped, and that in the winter of 1937 he was arrested again in place of his brother. But whether it was from 37 to 39 years as a soldier for two years, or from 36 to 39 years as he himself said, he was a soldier for three years. Wang Liudou was mixed into a soldier in the old army, a soldier ruffian, as a Kuomintang soldier, he fought the Japanese, and also followed others to rob and steal, eat, drink and have fun.
According to his own account, in 1938, he fought with the troops against the local guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army, and was captured by the guerrillas and released, but he was forced to return to the Kuomintang troops willingly for his livelihood.
In October 1939, he was captured again, this time by the Japanese army, and was taken to become the Imperial Allied Army, and the next year, that is, in 40 years, he was captured by the troops of the Sixth Division in Tang County at that time.
But none of this matters, no matter how complicated the experience is, in fact, you can see that this is a poor man who has been ruined by life and has to rely on being a soldier to eat, and the most important thing to see now is his changes in the ranks of the Eighth Route Army.
After Wang Liudou joined the troops of the 6th Division of the Jin-Chahar-Hebei Military Region of the Eighth Route Army, he served as a soldier in the first battalion, one company and one platoon of the 17th Regiment of the new formation. From the regiment commander to the battalion and company commander, this 17th Regiment is basically all Red Army veterans! In this heroic army, under the leadership of these old Red Army and the old Eighth Road, Wang Liudou quickly grew into an excellent soldier with a high degree of political consciousness and good fighting.
After factual education, Wang Keqin became a combat hero and a model soldier who even he didn't expect. From a veteran who fought for no one in the old army, hid when he heard the gunshot, and had not been injured once in several years, he became a combat hero who sacrificed his life and died in the battle and took the lead.
This has to go back to 41 years, it was after the end of the anti-sweep in the summer of 1941, by the way, it was the counter-sweep that Yang Bangzi was urgently ordered to go to the prisoner squad, and a large number of newly replenished fighters were inserted into the army after the war.
One day, the instructors of the first battalion convened a meeting of the cadres of each company to report and study the ideological situation of the troops. The instructor of the first company said: "There is a Wang Liudou in our company, who has been a big soldier on the Kuomintang side for many years, full of messy ideas, depressed mood, and chattering with new soldiers behind his back. It is this kind of person that is the most difficult to transform. ”
"What did he say?" The battalion commander asked.
"What do you say that the Japanese have money and guns, a large territory, aircraft artillery, and a few broken rifles of the Eighth Route Army, don't want to defeat them, and say that he was captured this time, it was unlucky!"
"There's nothing strange about that." Wu Xiaoxian said, "These people have been deceived and propagated too deeply by the Japanese and the puppet army, so they should be patiently educated and more considerate of them in life." ”
The instructor of the first company said: "He is sick, and the deputy company commander personally gives him a sick meal." But after he finished eating, he wiped his mouth, and said to other new soldiers behind his back: 'The officers of the Eighth Route Army will buy people's hearts. Today is like a brother, tomorrow on the battlefield, it's not a box gun to force you to fight for him! ’
It's no wonder that the puppet army is so propaganda of the Eighth Route Army, Wang Liudou in the old army because of eating, drinking, and merrymaking, not paying attention to hygiene, scabies, pus everywhere on his body, no one in the old army wants to sleep next to him, but when he arrived at a battalion and a company of our 17th Regiment, the squad leader took special care of him like a brother, took the initiative to sleep next to him, looked for home remedies everywhere to treat him, and everywhere he went, he wiped his body and soaked his feet with medicine, and even held his feet without disgust to apply medicine to him.
This made Wang Liudou, who was accustomed to seeing other people's dislike of him, very moved, and realized that the ** army regarded him as a human being and did not dislike him, so he was willing to work in this army.
In July 1942, the breakout battle of the siege of Shenxian Mountain in the Fuping Military Region began, when Yang Bangzi also led the team to the rescue, and the 17th Regiment of the 6th Division was also taken by Commander Huang and the ** battalion to the south together, which was the first big battle fought by Wang Liudou and many other soldiers of the New Eighth Route Army since they participated in the Eighth Route Army.
After entering the position, Company Commander Zhang of the first company found that the new soldiers were more or less hesitant and cringe, and the same was true for Wang Liudou, who claimed to be a veteran. Company Commander Zhang remembered what Wang Liudou once said: In the ** and puppet army, the officials often preached to the soldiers: **'s army was very good to the prisoners at first, but when the war was fought, the prisoners were put in front as cannon fodder. It seems that these rumors of the Kuomintang army really played a role, and the company commander wanted to say something to Wang Liudou and them, but he still held back, thinking that it was better to let the facts speak.
In the fight with the little devils, the charge horn sounded, and the party members and cadres of our army, as usual, took the lead in rushing to the front. Many new soldiers were sluggish, and Wang Keqin was also stunned, he didn't expect that the company commanders, instructors, and squad leaders who cared so much about him were the first to rush towards the devil with bayonets! He was stunned and forgot to shoot the machine gun.
At this time, the devils began to organize a counterattack, and some of the party members and cadres who rushed to the forefront were honorably wounded, and some died heroically. The company commander and instructor immediately pounced with the second echelon without hesitation. Suddenly, seeing that the squad leader who was smearing medicine for him and treating him like a brother also fell, Wang Liudou couldn't hold back any longer, and stood up with a machine gun from behind the dirt bun where he was hiding, and shouted to the new soldiers hiding behind him: "Rush!" So everyone followed him and rushed forward bravely, suppressing the devil's counterattack at once! (To be continued......)
