Glorious mission

1May, 935, our Red Army of Workers and Peasants crossed Jinsha River, Huili, Dechang and Lugu, and came to Mianning. Our Red Army is a division and a regiment, shouldering the glorious task of advancing. In order to strengthen the leadership and enrich the strength, the Central Military Commission appointed Liu Bocheng and Nie as the commander and political commissar of the advance team respectively, and the engineering company and artillery company of the Corps were placed under the command of a regiment. I was the head of a regiment at that time.

On this day, the superior handed us the task of crossing the Dadu River. The troops immediately set out in the rain from a Zhuangzi more than 0/60 miles away from Dadu River/KLOC.

Dadu River is a tributary of the Yangtze River, and it is said that Shi Dakai was completely annihilated. Now, our situation is also very sinister: after that, hundreds of thousands of troops such as Zhou Hunyuan, Xue Yue and Wu Qiwei came after us, but before that, Sichuan warlords Liu Xiang and Liu's "lean troops" guarded all the ferries of the Dadu River. Chiang Kai-shek raved that there is Jinsha River behind and Dadu River in front. Hundreds of thousands of troops blocked the attack, and it was difficult for the * * * army to soar. He also dreamed of making our army "the second in Shi Dakai".

After marching in the rain for a day and a night, the troops stopped on a hillside. Only a dozen miles away from Anshun field, the voice of Dadu River can be heard. /kloc-the March in 0/40 was really tiring, and the soldiers fell asleep as soon as they stopped. At this time, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening, so I quickly found several fellow villagers to understand the situation.

The situation introduced by fellow villagers is basically consistent with our reconnaissance. Anshunchang in front is a small town with nearly 100 families. In order to prevent me from crossing the river, the enemy often has two companies defending here. All the boats were robbed and destroyed except one that was used in the past. On the other side of Anshunchang, there is an enemy regiment (the main force of the regiment is fifteen miles downstream of the ferry), three "backbone regiments" of Hu Dingcheng in the upstream and two regiments of Yang Sen in the downstream. To cross the Dadu River, we must first seize Anshun Field and seize ships.

As soon as the situation was clear, the order came: sneak attack on Anshun field overnight to prevent the enemy from crossing the river. Commander Liu Bocheng and Nie political commissar specially instructed us to say, "This crossing of the river is related to the lives of tens of thousands of Red Army! -we must overcome all difficulties, complete the task, and open up a road to victory for the whole army! "

"We are not Shi Dakai, we are * * * production party and the Red Army of workers and peasants led by Chairman Mao! In front of us, there are no invincible enemies, and there are no natural barriers that cannot be broken. We must write a glorious page for the revolutionary history of China on the Dadu River. " Comrade Li Lin, the political commissar of the regiment, said firmly after reading the order.

A prelude to victory

The soldiers woke up from their dreams and braved the drizzle to move on in the dark.

According to the division of labor, Li Zhengwei led the 2nd Battalion to feint the downstream of Anshunchang Ferry to attract the main force of the regiment. I took a battalion to seize Anshun field first, and then forced to cross the river; The 3rd Battalion served as a guard, and stayed where they were to cover the command organ.

It was dark and raining, and the troops marched along the muddy path. After walking for about ten miles, we approached Anshun Field. I ordered the first battalion to advance in three ways.

The defenders of Anshunchang never dreamed that the Red Army would come so soon. They think we haven't left Haizibian ethnic minority areas, so they are unprepared.

"Which part?" Our platoon made contact with the enemy sentry.

"We are the Red Army! Don't kill if you surrender your gun! " The Red Army soldiers responded like spring thunder and rushed at the enemy.

"bang!" The enemy opened fire. Our artillery also roared from all directions. Angry gunfire drowned out the roar of the Dadu River and the screams of the enemy, and the recalcitrant enemies fell down one after another. Some of the living people have become prisoners, and some have fled desperately! The enemies of the two companies were all defeated in less than thirty minutes.

With a bang, I came to a house by the road. Suddenly I heard a voice: "Which one?" When the messenger heard something wrong, he pulled the latch and shouted, "Don't move! Don't kill if you surrender your gun! " The enemy couldn't figure out our situation, so he surrendered his gun obediently. As it happens, these enemies are in charge of the ship. I quickly asked the messenger to send these prisoners to the first battalion and let the first battalion find a way to get the boat.

It is difficult for Battalion 1 to find the ferry. There is only this boat here, and now it is our only support.

After occupying Anshun field, I came to the river and saw the mountains on both sides. The river is about 300 meters wide and three or four feet deep. The rushing river meets the rocks and rolls up high white waves. It is difficult to cross the river at once without boatmen and preparations.

Feiduo Luding Bridge

1May 25, 935, on the one hand, after the army forcibly crossed the Dadu River in Anshunchang, it took tens of thousands of Red Army to cross the river with only a few boats, at least one month. The Kuomintang's pursuers are in hot pursuit, and the situation is very serious. On the morning of May 26th, Zhou Enlai, Zhu De, Wang Jiaxiang, Lin Biao, Nie, Luo Ronghuan and Luo Ruiqing immediately decided to seize the Luding Bridge. Its deployment is that the First Division of the Red Army led by Liu Bocheng and Nie and the cadre regiments led by Chen Geng and Song Renqiong are on the right, and the central column and 1, 3, 5 and 9 armies are on the left to capture Luding Bridge. On May 28th, Wang Kaixiang and Yang Chengwu led the Fourth Regiment of the Red Second Division to attack the left army. On May 28th, the Red Fourth Regiment received an order from the Red Army Corps: "Wang Kaixiang, Yang Chengwu: The Military Commission called, limiting the left-wing army to seize the Luding Bridge tomorrow. You should complete this glorious task with the highest marching speed and resolute maneuver. In this battle, you have to break the record of Daozhou running 160 miles a day and the Yaxi Fifth Regiment. " After receiving the order, the Red Fourth Regiment made a journey of 240 Hualishan Road day and night, and unexpectedly appeared on the west bank of Luding Bridge on the morning of the 29th to exchange fire with the enemy.

At that time, the Luding Bridge, which was more than 0/00 meters long, had been demolished by the enemy for about 80 meters, and the bridge deck of Luding Bridge was tightly blocked by intensive fire composed of machine guns and artillery. At noon, the Red Fourth Corps held a cadre meeting in Shaba Catholic Church to mobilize the battle, and organized 23 commandos to seize the bridge under the leadership of company commander Liao Dazhu and instructor Wang Haiyun. At four o'clock in the afternoon, 23 soldiers, armed with guns, sabres on their backs and more than a dozen grenades hanging around their waists, braved the bullets, climbed up the bare chain and rushed to the East Bridge. Three soldiers led by Wang Youcai followed closely behind, carrying guns, holding boards in one hand and chains in the other, laying the bridge deck while advancing. When the soldiers climbed to the middle of the bridge, the enemy set fire to the east bridge head in an attempt to stop the Red Army from attacking the bridge with fire. Faced with this sudden flame, the soldiers shouted: "Comrades, this is the last moment of victory. Summon up your courage and rush over! Don't be afraid of fire, go! The enemy has collapsed, go! " Liao Dazhu jumped up and set foot on the bridge deck and rushed to the east bridge. The soldiers also rushed up, pulled out their sabres and started hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. At this time, political commissar Yang Chengwu led a team across the East Bridge, repelled the enemy's counterattack, occupied Luding City, and quickly put out the bridge fire. The whole battle took only two hours, and then the Luding Bridge was captured in an amazing way, crushing Chiang Kai-shek's dream of turning the Dadu River Natural Danger Red Army into a second Shi Dakai. Luding Bridge has thus become an important milestone in the long March of China's * * * production party, laying a solid foundation for the realization of the historic Red Army, the Second Army and the Fourth Army, and finally ending the Long March in northern Shaanxi. With the magnificent praise of "13 iron chains splitting the road between * * * and the country", the top ten founding marshals of new China, seven of whom crossed Luding Bridge in the Long March. At that time, on the Luding Bridge after the fierce battle, Marshal Liu Bocheng stamped his feet heavily on the bridge deck and said with emotion, "Luding Bridge, Luding Bridge, how much energy and hard work we have paid for you, and now we have won, we have won!" ! The poem written by Commander-in-Chief Zhu De with the inscription "The Yangtze River still remembers the danger of Lu Guan" in the memory of the Long March fully illustrates the dangers and heroism of the Red Army's long March to capture Luding Bridge.

Forcing crossing the Dadu River

1In May, 935, the Red Army of Workers and Peasants crossed the Jinsha River at the border of Sichuan and Yunnan, and marched for hundreds of miles before reaching the Dadu River in southern Sichuan. Dadu River is a tributary of the Yangtze River, with winding mountains on both sides. The river is more than 300 meters wide and 34 feet deep. This has always been a battleground for military strategists. In order to smash the enemy's plot and realize the plan of going north to resist Japan, the Red Army must cross the Dadu River. The glorious task of crossing the Dadu River and destroying the enemy on the other side of the river fell on all the comrades in our Red League.

We made careful preparations before crossing the river. After reconnaissance, we know that the enemy used several regiments to guard the ferry. After analysis, we decided to choose Anshunchang as the ferry.

It's already past ten in the middle of the night, after marching in the rain for a day and a night. Arrived at the hillside more than ten miles away from Anshun field. The soldiers were so sleepy that they fell asleep as soon as they stopped. At this time, the headquarters received an order: sneak attack on Anshunchang to defend the enemy for one night and seize the ferry to cross the river! The tired soldier got up from the slippery mud and continued to March. The defenders of Anshunchang never dreamed that the Red Army would come so soon. "Which part?" Our platoon came into contact with the enemy sentry, and the enemy mistook us for one of their own. "We are the Red Army, and we will not kill if we surrender our guns!" The roar of the Red Army soldiers pierced the night sky like spring thunder. After thirty minutes of fierce fighting, the Red Army occupied Anshun Field.

The troops decided to cross the river, but now there are no boatmen and no preparations. There was still no way to cross the river, so I decided to postpone it until the next day.

I can't wait until dawn. The weather is fine and the blue sky is dotted with white clouds. It seems that the cliffs along the Dadu River are particularly solemn, and the river keeps pounding and roaring, as if to devour the earth. The enemy built many bunkers around the ferry on the other side, trying to counter-charge the Red Army before gaining a foothold after it crossed the river and landed, forcing it into the water.

"The first move is strong!" The head of the Red Army ordered the artillery company to put several heavy machine guns in a favorable position, and light machine guns and special shooters also concealed into the riverside positions.

Firepower is arranged, but the serious problem is crossing the river. We managed to find a dozen boatmen. The boatman promised to take us across the river.

We decided to cross the river on time. Comrade Sun Jixian, the battalion commander, led seventeen soldiers. Everyone is carrying broadswords and submachine guns. A spear, with five or six grenades, is ready to cross the river.

The solemn moment has arrived. The eighteen warriors were divided into two groups of ferries, and under the cover of our strong firepower, they bumped along with the surging water waves.

The enemy was angry and opened fire on our ferry. At this critical moment, the colonel shouted: "Comrades! The lives of 100,000 Red Army depend on you. Step over it resolutely. Destroy the enemy on the other side! " The warriors were even more desperate when they heard the call of the party. Quickly rushed up, grenades and machine guns collided, and broadswords danced in the enemy group. Known as the "two-armed general", the Sichuan army was defeated and fled in confusion. We have completely controlled the banks of the Dadu River. The next morning, the Red Army successfully crossed the Dadu River. The deeds of the eighteen warriors crossing the Dadu River will go down in the history of the revolution forever.
