You don't know this battle. Historical celebrities dedicated 72 hours to victory.

When it comes to war, people have the impression that it was a war that changed the situation of the country, and it was the Fu Uprising that led to the peaceful liberation of Beiping. But can you really win such a simple war? Fu was a key figure in this war, but do you think Fu would risk being retaliated by Chiang Kai-shek without the strong temptation of the People's Liberation Army? I also want to know that this is impossible.

It is reported that there was another key figure in the battle of Ping Jin, who defended Ping Jin for 72 hours in order to win the battle of Ping Jin. This person turned out to be Zeng, so what happened? Take a look with questions.

He once briefly introduced Renzeng in Xinfeng County, Jiangxi Province, New China. One of the founding major generals of China People's Liberation Army. Won the 2nd China People's Liberation Army Bayi Medal, 2nd Independence and Freedom Medal, 1st Liberation Medal and 1st Red Star Meritorious Medal. He has participated in the Battle of Qingfengdian, the Battle of Shijiazhuang and the Battle of Peace Gold.

According to the battle record, when I was in the central station of the northwest slope, I learned that the 35th Army of the Imperial Army, the commander of the Kuomintang's "General Suppression" in North China, was fleeing to the east of Zhangjiakou in an attempt to escape back to Peiping. Very urgent. He immediately asked Zhou Enlai to generate electricity for the 19th Army commander Yang Dezhi, political commissar Luo Ruiqing and chief of staff Geng Biao. Yan Lingyang, Luo and Geng must, at all costs, block the way of the enemy's 35 th Army's eastward advance and escape and hold it. He led the troops to stick to the new security, and together with the officers and men of the 12 brigade, they took turns to fight against the attack of the enemy's 35 th army for 72 hours.

The telegram dictated by Mao Zedong said: "Now the enemy of the 35th Army and Xuanhua is fleeing eastward. Yang, Luo and Geng should obey the orders of the military commission many times to prevent the enemy from fleeing eastward; If the enemy escapes from the lower garden and the new security guard, Yang, Luo and Geng will be responsible. "

The harsh wording of the telegram is really rare, which shows how much Mao Zedong attaches importance to capturing the enemy's 35th Army. Indeed, when our army launched a campaign, in order to fight against our army, Fu You 12 Army had more than 500,000 troops in 44 divisions, with Zhangjiakou, Beiping, Tianjin and Tanggu as hubs, and laid a "long snake array" on hundreds of kilometers of traffic lines.

At that time, fu's wishful thinking was: fight if you have the ability; If he can't win, he will take the Pingsui Railway to the west and flee to Suimeng, and take the sea to the east and flee to the south. Knowing Fu's intention, the Central Military Commission decided to cut off the enemy's crossing the river in the east and west, and adopted the operational policy of "dividing without encircling, encircling without fighting, and finally annihilating the other side".

According to this deployment, the 4th column of the North China Field Army 19 Corps 12 Brigade just captured the new security guards on the Pingsui railway line, controlled the enemy's east-west railway and highway lines, and cut off the enemy's "long snake array" in the middle. Now, the thirty-five enemy troops trapped in Zhangjiakou are trying to escape back to Peiping through new security guards and reopen this traffic line. If the enemy tries to succeed, the whole plan of our army's Ping Jin campaign will be seriously affected. At this point, why don't you worry about Mao Zedong!

This urgent telegram immediately reached Yang, Luo, Geng and Yinhe Heibao. Military orders are like mountains and cannot be violated. Yang, Luo and Geng think the problem is very serious. They clearly know that at present, our army has only one brigade in the new security guard, that is, the 4th column brigade of the 1st19th Corps12nd Brigade, to prevent more than 15,000 people of the 35th Army of the enemy from fleeing eastward. And even if the main force of the Corps is faster, it will take a day and a night to get reinforcements.

In other words, we 12 Brigade, with less than 5,000 troops, must resolutely resist the attack of the new security front/KLOC-0 with more than 5000 people and more than 400 vehicles, and defend ourselves for more than 72 hours.

I 12 brigade commander stood by Fu for 72 hours. Facing the severe test is Jiangxi Xinfeng General Zeng. As early as February 1928, he took part in the peasant armed riot in Xinfeng County and later joined the Red Army of Workers and Peasants. He participated in the first "encirclement and suppression" struggle in five evils and the 25,000-mile Long March in the Central Soviet Area, and served as commander and head of the Eighth Route Army in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression successively. Since the liberation war, under the leadership of his old superior and comrade-in-arms commander, he led his troops to the battlefield in North China and fought with Fu's "Wang Paijun" 35 army many times.

On July 22, 1948, the rate of 12 brigade took part in the attack on Xianghe County, Hebei Province as the main attack. They bravely attacked the city and plundered the land, annihilated nearly a thousand defenders, and were awarded the banner of "complete military and political victory" by the column party Committee. In June+10, 5438, Ceng Siyu, the commander of the column, led the main force of the column to defend Shijiazhuang in southern Hebei, and the 12th brigade he led stayed in Beiping, Hebei, and split up to guard against the enemy. Three days ago, on February 4, 65438, it was they who captured the new security guard and cut off the enemy's main roads.

Now we know that the 35th Army wants to recapture the new security guard and flee back to Peiping. How can they let the enemy's attempt succeed? Besides, this war of resistance is related to the overall situation of the whole Ping Jin campaign! I once gave the order to the whole brigade categorically: even if the whole brigade was closed, the enemy 35 army could not pass the new security!

At dawn on February 7th, 65438, Guo Jingyun, commander of the enemy's 35th Army, led his troops, with 10 1 division as the pioneer and 267th division as the defender, leading more than 1000 enemy troops in Zhuolu county and Xiahuayuan, with a total of 16000 troops and 420 cars. The motor roared, and the rolling yellow dust raised covered the sky.

Facing the menacing enemy, he remained calm and commanded the troops to fight tenaciously. As soon as the enemy vanguard troops entered the West Bali, they were attacked by the 36th regiment of our 12 brigade, and their actions were blocked. At 10 in the morning, the enemy advanced to the new security guard west gate and was stubbornly blocked by the 2 nd battalion of our 34 th regiment. The battalion braved the repeated shooting and indiscriminate bombing of 18 enemy planes and the indiscriminate bombing of enemy ground artillery, calmly responded and concentrated its fire to repel the enemy's repeated charges. The enemy broke into our position several times, and the soldiers jumped out of the trench to fight with the enemy and beat them back again and again.

At noon 12, the enemy entered the gate of the new security guard and near the railway station, and concentrated on the position of the 3 rd battalion of our 34 th regiment northwest of the new security guard. The officers and men of the 3rd Battalion held their ground and fought many times with the enemy. At night, the enemy suffered heavy casualties and only advanced 4 kilometers. At night, the enemy huddled in the new security city, waiting for officers and men to meet him.

After a day and a half of fierce fighting, Wang Zhao, the political commissar of the four columns who directly commanded the battle in this brigade, felt a little tired, but they knew that they should not be careless at night and should be alert to the enemy's escape while it was dark. He seized the time to adjust the deployment of troops and ordered them to overcome all difficulties and resist the enemy loyally.

Zeng: Even if there was only one enemy, the commander of the column sent an urgent telegram: "Resolutely stop the enemy's thirty-five troops from fleeing eastward. Even if there is only one person left, the enemy is not allowed to escape. The main force of the column will join your brigade on the same day. " Zeng hurriedly conveyed the instructions of Commander Zeng to the whole brigade. He put forward a resounding slogan: Even if there is only one person left, never let the enemy run away!

While the 12 brigade stubbornly blocked the enemy, Ceng Siyu, commander of the 4th column, was leading the 10 and1brigades of this column to the new security guard. In order to cut corners, the troops crossed.

Since then, our army has been based in Mao Zedong and the Central Military Commission.
