"Wang Jinshan, your current shelf is really getting bigger and bigger!"
In front of the door of the 772nd Regiment's station, Xu Xiangqian looked at Wang Jinshan with an angry face.
Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't expect Xu Xiangqian, who had always been kind, to be so angry.
I saw Wang Jinshan said with a aggrieved face: "Division Commander, you blame me, I was 'harmed' by Brigade Commander Chen Geng!" ”
What did Wang Jinshan do to cause Xu Xiangqian to be so angry? How did Chen Geng 'harm' him?
Wang Jinshan's shelf
One day in 1938, Xu Xiangqian was stationed in the 129th Division, preparing for anti-Japanese work. Just as he was busy, the guards suddenly informed him that there was an urgent call for him.
Xu Xiangqian picked up the phone and listened to it, and found that it was Chen Geng calling. Chen Geng's voice seemed to be very anxious, and he begged Xu Xiangqian to come to the headquarters of the 772nd Regiment quickly.
Xu Xiangqian didn't dare to delay, immediately put down the work in his hand and rushed to the 772nd regiment. But when he arrived at the entrance of the regimental headquarters, he was stopped by the soldiers guarding the guard.
Xu Xiangqian immediately identified himself and said that he wanted to meet their brigade commander Chen Geng and regiment commander Wang Jinshan.
The soldier had not seen Xu Xiangqian. He saw that Xu Xiangqian was dressed very plainly, no different from an ordinary warrior, so he doubted his words.
The soldier didn't dare to be sloppy, so he only asked Xu Xiangqian to wait for a while, and he called to report it. After making the call, he told Xu Xiangqian that the brigade commander and regiment commander were coming.
Seeing that the soldiers were not in a hurry, Xu Xiangqian asked strangely: "Doesn't your regimental headquarters have important military information?" ”
The soldier looked confused and said: "No, it's been very peaceful recently, and everyone is training daily." ”
The more Xu Xiangqian thought about it, the more strange it became. Since there is no important military information, why did Chen Geng find himself?
Just when he was puzzled, Wang Jinshan came.
He was taken aback when he saw Xu Xiangqian and kicked directly on the soldier's leg: "What's the matter with you, you actually stopped the division commander at the door!" ”
The soldiers guarding only then knew Xu Xiangqian's true identity and hurriedly apologized to him.
A wave of anger surged in Xu Xiangqian's heart, but this anger was not directed at the soldiers guarding the guard, but at Wang Jinshan.
Xu Xiangqian lowered his face and said, "This warrior has never seen me, so naturally he doesn't know my identity. It is also his duty to be wary of strangers. It's you, beating and scolding, so majestic! ”
After speaking, he pointed behind Wang Jinshan and said, "Your current shelf is really getting bigger and bigger, and you are equipped with six guards!" ”
It turned out that when Wang Jinshan arrived, Xu Xiangqian saw the six guards behind him at a glance, which was why there was such a big fire.
Even Chen Geng only had two guards by his side, and Wang Jinshan was even bigger than Chen Geng's shelf!
He thought that Wang Jinshan was "floating" after being promoted, so he hated that iron could not become steel: "The army is not a place for you to be majestic, if you want to be majestic, go home as soon as possible!" ”
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but look at each other. Wang Jinshan is usually very irritable, even Brigadier Chen Geng dares to be scared, but now he can listen to the training quietly, which is really rare.
At this time, Wang Jinshan suddenly said aggrievedly: "Commander, don't you know me yet? Where can I put up a fight, I was 'harmed' by the brigade commander! ”
Xu Xiangqian was stunned for a moment, is there still a secret in this matter? So he said solemnly: "Tell me, why did Chen Geng 'harm' you?" ”
Just as Wang Jinshan was about to explain, Chen Geng suddenly walked over from the side. He enthusiastically took Xu Xiangqian's hand and said, "You can count it!" I need your help with an urgent matter! ”
It turned out that the urgent matter in his mouth was nothing else, it was Wang Jinshan. This matter has to start with the rapid attack on Changle Village.
Chen Geng's distress
Not long ago, in order to consolidate the forces of aggression against China in North China, the Japanese army mobilized 30,000 troops and carried out a "nine-way siege" on our army's base area in the southeast of Jin.
Our army immediately deployed a battle plan. Liu Bocheng decided to give the enemy a hard blow in Changle Village.
After deliberation, the crowd finally decided to adopt a combat method that combined the inner and outer lines.
Our army needs to constantly contain and attrition the enemy on the inner line, and then let the troops on the outer line wait for the opportunity to move, and find the right time to annihilate the fleeing enemy in one fell swoop.
As soon as the plan was made, the brigades went into action.
Chen Geng also sent the task to each regiment. He sent Han Xianchu, the commander of the 689th Regiment, to block the enemy on the inner line, and Ye Chenghuan, the commander of the 772nd Regiment, to pursue the enemy on the outer line.
At this time, Wang Jinshan was only the deputy head of the 772nd Regiment.
As soon as the battle began, Wang Jinshan flew out like an arrow from a string. Several shells exploded in his ears, and he didn't care, just pursued the enemy in front of him one by one.
After Han Xianchu drove the enemy out of the position, Wang Jinshan was even more red-eyed, he directly raised the machine gun and launched a fierce attack on the enemy.
The fierce fighting lasted nearly six hours. Our troops suffered heavy casualties, and the enemy also suffered most of them. Only Wang Jinshan, the offensive has not weakened by half a point.
Seeing that the situation was not right, the enemy hurriedly called the headquarters to ask for reinforcements. Chen Geng believed that our army was no longer sure of annihilating the enemy's reinforcements, so he immediately ordered the soldiers to retreat and ordered the 772nd Regiment to cover.
But Ye Chenghuan suddenly suffered from lung disease at this time and vomited several mouthfuls of blood. Chen Geng asked Ye Chenghuan to retreat with the large army, and let Wang Jinshan stay to cover the transfer of everyone.
But Ye Chenghuan insisted on staying and fighting. The crowd could not resist him, so he had to go.
When Chen Genglin left, he specially told Wang Jinshan to take good care of Ye Chenghuan, and after the large army left, they must not fall in love with each other, and they must be transferred immediately.
Wang Jinshan agreed.
After the large army began to retreat, Ye Chenghuan and Wang Jinshan began to fight again. Enemy reinforcements also arrived shortly after.
The enemy's offensive is becoming more and more rapid, and our army is gradually unable to resist. At the critical moment, the scout came back and reported: the large force has been safely transferred!
So Ye Chenghuan immediately ordered a retreat, and Wang Jinshan immediately led his troops to retreat.
As a result, just as they were about to reach safety, Ye Chenghuan was suddenly hit by the enemy's stray bullet, and then fell down and stopped breathing.
Wang Jinshan was sad and angry, and an impulse surged into his heart. He forgot Chen Geng's entrustment, and immediately led the soldiers to kill back: "Rush! Revenge the regimental commander! ”
The warriors were equally grief-stricken and indignant, and they rushed into the enemy's camp with Wang Jinshan. The sound of a battle suddenly broke through the sky......
And Chen Geng saw that the 772nd Regiment had not returned for a long time, and he also had a bad premonition in his heart. He hurriedly called Han Xianchu and asked him to go back to support.
Soon after, Han Xianchu led Wang Jinshan, who was seriously injured, back. And the 772nd Regiment behind him had less than a few dozen people left.
After Chen Geng listened to the cause and effect, he immediately criticized Wang Jinshan.
"Comrade Ye Chenghuan sacrificed, I understand your feelings. But now that you are the only commander left in the 772nd Regiment, you should be responsible for the soldiers, how can you still be so disregardful? ”
"If you lead not a regiment today, but an army, then everyone will be wiped out because of your recklessness!"
But at this time, Wang Jinshan was still immersed in the pain of the sacrifice of his comrades-in-arms, and he didn't listen to Chen Geng's advice at all.
Chen Geng sighed. Wang Jinshan is good at everything, and he is also the bravest warrior Chen Geng has ever seen. But he has one of the most fatal flaws, which is that he is too impulsive.
Even in the face of the most dangerous enemy, Wang Jinshan did not care about his personal safety at all, and he loved to rush forward vigorously.
If it sounds good, it is called brave and fearless, and if it is ugly, it is called brave and unscrupulous. Chen Geng had no choice but to assign six guards to Wang Jinshan.
When Wang Jinshan first saw these six people, his anger came up directly: "Brigade commander, what do you mean by this?" Do you look down on me? Do I need so many people to protect me? ”
Chen Geng glanced at him and said, "Who said they are here to protect you?" I've arranged so many people to watch out for you! ”
Later, he said to the six people that in the future, on the battlefield, as long as he saw Wang Jinshan rushing forward, he would be dragged back no matter what method was used.
Xu Xiangqian's admonition
Since having these six guards, Wang Jinshan's movements have been restricted everywhere. Wang Jinshan was already short-tempered, and this anger became even more vigorous.
Chen Geng knew that the person who could control Wang Jinshan now was Xu Xiangqian.
So in order to completely get rid of Wang Jinshan's problems, Chen Geng found Xu Xiangqian and wanted him to educate Wang Jinshan well.
After Xu Xiangqian learned what happened, he immediately taught Wang Jinshan a lesson: "You said that Chen Geng 'harmed' you, I see that he saved you!" ”
"If you still don't realize your mistakes, go back with me to be the squad leader, and when the time comes, you can rush as you want!"
Seeing that Xu Xiangqian didn't seem to be a fake, Wang Jinshan immediately became afraid: "Chief, don't worry, I will be obedient in the future and never be reckless again!" ”
After that, Wang Jinshan really did as he promised, and started to be the head of the regiment dutifully.
In later operations, he also began to pay attention to strategic methods, and no longer rushed hard.
When everyone saw that Wang Jinshan seemed to be a different person, they couldn't help but be amazed, Xu Xiangqian was so powerful that he could make Wang Jinshan change his personality with a few words.
But what everyone doesn't know is that Wang Jinshan has changed, not because of what Xu Xiangqian said, but because of Xu Xiangqian.
Wang Jinshan admired Xu Xiangqian from the bottom of his heart, so he listened to his admonition so easily. For Wang Jinshan, Xu Xiangqian can be regarded as his guide on the road to the military.
When Wang Jinshan first joined the army, it was the most difficult period for the Red Army. The day after Wang Jinshan joined the army, he was sent to the front line.
With no weapons and no combat experience, Wang Jinshan rushed to the battlefield with only one lonely courage.
After a battle, his squad leader died, and so did the company commander. So the organization promoted Wang Jinshan to company commander.
Wang Jinshan was deeply aware of the cruelty of the battle. He always felt that one day he would die on the battlefield, and that was the first time he had the intention of retreating.
Many recruits have the same psychology as Wang Jinshan. After Xu Xiangqian noticed it, he personally came to the army to do ideological work for everyone.
In order to boost morale, in every battle, Xu Xiangqian would lead the standard-bearer to stand in the most dangerous place and advance and retreat with the soldiers.
Under the influence of Xu Xiangqian, the soldiers became more and more courageous, and Wang Jinshan also became daring to fight.
In the "Anti-Six-Way Siege", Wang Jinshan led the 28th Regiment to charge on the front line. The entire regiment was almost killed, and in the end only a dozen people remained.
Wang Jinshan directly took off his shirt, drew a big knife, and rushed into the enemy's camp shirtless. He was not afraid of the enemy's bullets and bullets, and fought in close quarters against the enemy.
The entire brigade of enemy troops was stunned by more than a dozen people from Wang Jinshan who made dumplings.
After the battle, Xu Xiangqian personally came to visit Wang Jinshan and expressed high praise for him: "You are a brave and tenacious warrior, I am proud of you!" ”
Wang Jinshan has always kept in mind Xu Xiangqian's teachings. In the battles that followed, no matter how difficult and dangerous the situation was, he never flinched.
Eventually, he became a brave and accomplished general!
