The first time I hit the ghost

□ Guo Zhaoji

I remember the first time I hit a Japanese devil in the lunar calendar in 1939. At that time, I was a political worker in the 3rd Battalion of the 55th Group of the 55th Regiment of the 212th Brigade of Shanxi.

Once, the comrades who engaged in scouts in our army learned that in August 15th of the lunar calendar, there were 3 troops transport vehicles from Laishi County to Wanquan County. At that time, the troops were resting in Nanwen Village. After learning about this information, when the sun was about to fall in the afternoon of August 14th, the troops gathered. The head of the regiment Li Mingru made a brief pre -war mobilization, and then set off, passing through the cliff at the east and west cliffs of Huaishu Village, went straight to Diyan Town. Dan Yan Town was a big town in the Qianshi County that year, and it was the only way to the Tongquan County to Wanquan County. At this time, the sky was already dark, and the fellows who worked for a day went home to eat. Our 55 regiment all cadres and soldiers move forward quickly. The troops quickly arrived at Danan Town and rest and eat in the house prepared by the comrades -in -arms beforehand. At that time, the troops had no cooks, and they sent meals everywhere. The village cadres will send a few people to the family in accordance with the economic conditions of the fellows, and then send them to the troops. Therefore, more than 10 people in a class often eat several dials to eat a different meal.

After a meal, the company commander took the leader of the group to the west of Linzi to familiarize the position. The village cadres led the villagers to cut off the road west of the village and dug three deep ditch for more than one meter. The purpose was to prevent the devil from the devils The car passes. At dawn in August 15th, we ate breakfast in advance, planned in advance, and quickly entered the pre -position. At about 8 o'clock in the morning, the three cars of the devil rushed from south to north, and only heard the sound of "Ga". The car braked the car in front of the first deep groove. According to the commander's order, the soldiers fired to the devils together, and the explosion of the rifle, machine gun and grenade sounded. I didn't have a rifle at that time, only two grenades. Because it was the first time to participate in the battle, I was a little panicked, and a grenade forgot to pull the fire when throwing it.

After a while, under our violent blow, the devils were severe and injured, and the wolf fled. In this raid, we destroyed 4 enemy cars and wiped out more than 100 enemies.
