Cai Changfeng

After the Pingxing Guan battle, the 115th Division returned to the Wutai County. After a slight rest in the Doucun area, some troops left the work of the Jinchaji area. At this time, I was transferred to the director of the 115th Division in Daning's left -behind office and accepted the task of preparation for the left -behind. Time is November 1937.

The main purpose of the 115 Division to set up a left -behind office in Daning: First, the healing and transshipment wounded; the other is to collect, clean up and handle the warriors of the battle of Pingxing and the battle of Guangyang Town; Personnel, communication between the front line of Shanxi and the rear of northern Shaanxi.

Before going to Daning, the division called me a row of troops, a dozen horses and a radio station. Comrade Ren Nong, the Minister of the Division Supply Department, has repeatedly explained to me. Establishing a left -behind office in Daning is a very important task. We must pay attention to publicizing the masses, educating the masses, expanding the impact of the anti -Japanese anti -Japanese in the masses, and obtaining the support and help of local governments and the masses. The leadership of the stay is now you alone, and you have to do your job well. The left -behind staff can be used in the past wounded. The division may go to the Hongdong and Linfen regions of Jinnan. Once the situation changes, it is necessary to be flexibly moved and pay attention to the safety of the wounded and all staff. Disposal the loot, and then try to contact the teacher.

Daning, located on the transportation line from Linfen, Jinxi to northern Shaanxi, is a small county. When we first arrived in Daning, there were more than 60 people, most of them were injured. The masses saw the wounded soldiers. Many people thought that it was Yan Xishan's defeats, and they were all hiding far away and very cold. After some publicity and explanation, the masses knew that we were the Eighth Route Army of the Anti -Japanese Salvation and changed their attitudes. Especially when the war -raid goods were shipped one after another, the entire county town had a sensation. People rushed to talk, "The Eighth Route Army defeated the Japanese in Pingxingzuan to Daning, and also took the seized Toyo Malaysia and the crooked handle machine gun, even the county head came to comfort ..." There is a legend. Many people came to watch with curiosity. I want to see what the Japanese people, crooked handle machine guns, yellow woolen coats, and high leather boots are like. I especially want to hear how the Eighth Route Army defeats the Japanese. Essence It is endless to come and go all day long. After watching and listening, they all praised the Eighth Route Army to fight well, which is good; the troops scolding Yan Xishan were "stains" and did not hit Japanese alone.

While launching the masses, the left -behind work has begun. The troops fighting in front of them will inevitably have casualties, and the injured people in the left -behind are increasing. Pingxingguan and Guangyang Town have seized in two battles, and they need to be counted and dealt with. Since Daning has set up a left -behind office, most of the past and rear past personnel have come here to stay and lodge. At that time, there were only more than 30 staff members in the left behind. They were too busy all day long, and they often lost each other. According to the needs of work and Minister Tong, the spirit is first improved to improve the left -behind organization and increase personnel. In particular, some medical staff must be supplemented. There are: political offices, health sections, accounting sections, military exercises, military demand, management, and radio stations. A firearm repair team under the military and weapon department, the security department of the management department and the guest house, and the health department also set up clinics and medical teams. After the organization was established, all the work had a clue.

The healing of the injured staff is an important task such as the head of the left -behind office. However, due to poor medical conditions, we can only keep the treatment of light wounded. We will transfer to the hospital in northern Shaanxi in time. The loot from the front of the front is a lot and mixed, and we all sort out other categories. All military materials are responsible for the Department of Military and Division. After the tissue of the firearms repair team is inspected and repaired, the front is sent to the front, and the rear is used to send it. There are very few new products in the military materials, most of which are old products and available products. We all wash and dry them and pack them and ship them to northern Shaanxi. There are very few horses and horses, and most of them have injuries. More than a dozen horses are left for horses, and the rest are handed over to local governments. Our guest house is located in several spacious shops. All past personnel and troops are warmly received to ensure hot water, hot rice, and hot crickets. Many people praise the left -behind service attitude, saying that living in the left -behind office is like their own home. Comrades of outpatients and medical teams, in addition to treating, nursing and transferring wounded patients, they also actively and enthusiastic about seeing a doctor and treating diseases, which are very popular. Due to the unanimous work and enthusiastic service of the entire office, the left -behind office quickly influenced the troops and localities, and it was rooted in the local people.

In order to promote the masses and further expand the impact of the anti -Japanese anti -Japanese, we discussed with the county's anti -Japanese democratic government to choose some troops, such as short guns, long guns, machine guns, magazines, small guns, woolen clothes, leather shoes, boots, lunch boxes, maps, maps, map boxes, map boxes, map boxes, map boxes, map boxes, maps, maps, maps, map boxes, map boxes, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, maps, and maps. , Saddle, Yangma, etc., a exhibition was held in a small temple in the east of the city. The left -behind office assigned several light wounded officers who participated in the Pingxing Guan Battle and Guangyang Town to be an interpreter. Based on the physical situation, the war situation was introduced. The masses listened happily, were satisfied, and went back to publicize. This pass ten or ten, ten miles of people will soon know, and there are more and more people visiting. Other people came from a hundred miles and looked at it all day. Many hawkers also took the opportunity to come to Daning for buying and selling. Every day, people come and go, like a temple fair. For a moment, Daning City, which was depressed, became lively. The Eighth Route Army and Pingxing Guan War became Daning's news topic. The anti -Japanese proposition of our party and our army is becoming more and more popular. In Daning, we are enthusiastic and strongly supported by the local government and the people. Although Daning was poor at the time and the people's life was suffering, it was indeed guaranteed to supply us. On the eve of the Spring Festival, the people in the residents spontaneously organized, with condolences, knocked gongs and drums, and condolences to the left -behind office. During the Spring Festival, we also held a military -civilian party with local governments and the masses, and performed anti -Japanese songs such as self -directed live news dramas, double reeds, and "workers, peasants and soldiers, and rescued". With the enthusiasm and encouragement of everyone, I also jumped and sang with you, singing, military and civilians, the atmosphere is warm, and the family is like a family.

After the failure of Taiyuan, the Japanese invaders went south along Tongpu Lu, forcing Jinxi. In February 1938, Zhongyang and Shilou counties lost one after another, and Daning was in danger. Just at this time, our radio station lost contact with the division and the situation was tense. In order to avoid the enemy and avoid damage to personnel and supplies, we decided to temporarily abandon Daning and cross the Yellow River to northern Shaanxi. With the assistance of the local governments and the masses, after three days and three nights, we sent all the wounded and most of the supplies to the Yellow River, and there were still unbearable things that were too late to be transported to the local government. The day before the Japanese invaders captured Daning, I took all the staff to remove Daning City safely.
