At that time, Tashan was defended by four elite troops of the Northeast Field Army.
Although the enemy was outnumbered and the terrain was unfavorable, the enemy launched a suicide charge for several days in a row, but under the tenacious resistance of our army, the enemy still failed to advance!
Many years later, after the death of the founding generals, such as the political commissar of Dongye No.4 who commanded the Battle of Tashan, their ashes were buried in Tashan.
According to statistics, there are as many as eight founding generals buried in Tashan. These eight generals are:
"Lieutenant General, Jiang, Jiao Yushan, Li Fuze, Hu Qicai, Lieutenant General Mo Wenhua, Lieutenant General Ou Yangwen, and Major General Jiang Minfeng."
Their last wish is to reunite with their dead comrades.
Next, let's look at the fate of the "Battle of Tashan" and learn about the burial of the eight founding generals in Tashan.
After 1948, under the leadership of the CPC Central Committee headed by Chairman Mao, the China People's Liberation Army divided the Chiang Kai-shek clique in various parts of China.
At that time, our party's armed forces occupied some advantages in some areas. In order to end the war of liberation as soon as possible and let the Lebanese people get rid of the suffering of the war as soon as possible, Chairman Mao and the CPC Central Committee decided to launch a decisive battle of the national liberation war.
As the saying goes, "everything is difficult at the beginning." In such a decisive battle, we must lay a good foundation and not make mistakes. Chairman Mao decided to place the first Armageddon in Northeast China, where all the conditions were relatively mature.
Soon, Chairman Mao's telegram arrived at the headquarters of the Northeast Field Army.
Commanders of the Four Fields resolutely obeyed the orders of the CPC Central Committee and decided to attack Jinzhou South and launch the famous Liaoshen Campaign.
On the other hand, Chiang Kai-shek Group also knows the importance of Jinzhou to itself. If Jinzhou is lost, then hundreds of thousands of troops in the northeast may be locked up by our army and eventually wiped out.
Therefore, after understanding our army's actions, Chiang Kai-shek Group mobilized eleven divisions to make a surprise attack on our army attacking Jinzhou in Tashan area, and finally, with the cooperation of the main force of the national army in Jinzhou city, we encircled the main force of our army.
Before the departure of his troops, Chiang Kai-shek made such a speech: "This campaign of aiding gold is of decisive significance, which is related to the life and death of our whole Northeast and the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. This battle must be fought well, nothing has been defeated, and everything is over! "
Our army knows that Tashan is the throat of Jinzhou, and the gains and losses in Tashan area are related to the overall victory or defeat of Liaoshen Campaign. As a result, the Fourth Field Army also sent the fourth and sixth divisions of the Fourth Vertical Heating River, one of its main forces, to take up the sniper task.
This time, it was General Wu Kehua who led the Fourth Longitudinal Battalion in Tashan.
Before the war, Lin Biao said to Wu Kehua of the Fourth Longitudinal: "I only want Tashan, not casualties!"
Wu Kehua nodded heavily.
In order to complete the task assigned by the superior, Wu Kehua immediately ordered the cadres above the Fourth Longitudinal Division to attend the meeting in the column immediately. He said at the meeting: "The key to the victory or defeat of this Liaoshen campaign lies in whether Jinzhou can be captured or not, and the key lies in whether Chiang Kai-shek's army can be stopped from advancing eastward."
"We have fought many beautiful battles in all directions, but this large-scale defensive war is the first time we have encountered it. We must learn war in the war and turn the unfavorable terrain of Tashan into favorable terrain. "
Finally, he said firmly: "For the victory of this campaign, our column has made up its mind. Even if we wipe out half or three quarters of our army, we must resolutely complete the tasks entrusted to us by our superiors and wipe out us, the political commissar Mo and the deputy commander Hu. We swear by the survival of our position that we will never let Chiang Kai-shek's army advance eastward! "
On June 8 10, Wu Kehua called a column of cadres to deploy Tashan to stop the war. According to the terrain of Tashan Mountain and the comparison between the enemy's attack and defense, he decided that the whole longitudinal force of this campaign should be "based on the front, side, deep step and reserve team, with firearms."
On the same day, in order to boost the morale of the whole army, the officers and men at all levels of the Fourth Vertical Command held a large-scale ideological mobilization meeting.
At the conference, commanders at all levels announced that they had read out letters to the whole column to produce party member and to the whole longitudinal commander. In these two declarations, the Fourth Longitudinal Soldiers put forward the slogans of "Hold the position", "Don't lose an inch of land" and "Live and die with the position".
After the mobilization meeting, officers and men at all levels of the Fourth Longitudinal Army braved the heavy rain and headed for Tashan one after another.
After the troops arrived at the position, the soldiers looked at the hill and knew it was a tough battle. Even if our army can win, it will be a heavy casualty. But in spite of this, no one in the whole army flinched. Under the guidance of commanders and soldiers, everyone began to build fortifications on Tashan with shovels in their hands.
The next day, Cheng of the Fourth Field Army Command also came to Tashan to inspect the position. He is very happy to see that the morale of the fourth platoon is not low because of the unfavorable terrain.
On a highland, he said to Wu Kehua and Wenhua who accompanied him, "Your burden is very heavy!"
Mo Wenhua, political commissar, replied: "We have made full preparations in all aspects and mobilized our thoughts before the war, and resolutely completed the tasks assigned to me by the headquarters."
Subsequently, Wu Kehua, commander of the column, gave Cheng Zhihua a a detailed analysis of our troops' deployment and weapons and equipment in Tashan.
After hearing this, Cheng said with a dignified face: "It seems that the enemy is going to be prepared to come from land, sea and air, and the troops should be prepared for air defense."
Seeing Cheng's worry, he said, "We have dug more than 20,000 bunkers in Tashan defensive position, with 6,000 meters of traffic trenches and two anti-tank trenches. Moreover, in order to prevent enemy air strikes, we have also dug a large number of underground passages so that troops, vehicles and horses can be transferred underground at any time. "
After listening to the report, Cheng said with great satisfaction: "Good!"
Later, he said to Wu Kehua: "In order to strengthen your air defense force, I will strengthen the field equipment and my anti-aircraft gun company for you!"
10 On June 9th, Wu Kehua and the political commissar, on behalf of all the officers and men, wrote a letter to Ye Si and his brothers who attacked Jinzhou, saying that the four longitudinal generals and positions were in jeopardy.
10 June10, Chiang Kai-shek's eastward corps launched an attack on time in the early morning of the same day according to the pre-war deployment. In order to make Tashan a strategic location as soon as possible, they ordered more than 40 heavy guns, 7 planes and 2 warships to fire at our Tashan position together. In a burst of gunfire, Tashan's position became a hell on earth, and many soldiers defending Tashan were deafened by the rumble of gunfire.
Later, a burst of artillery bombardment, Chiang Kai-shek sent four divisions to seize the defensive position of Tashan, and our soldiers also used all kinds of weapons in their hands to serve the invading Chiang Kai-shek. Before setting foot on the position of Tashan, the two sides fought to the death. Although our army is facing the pressure of Mount Tai, our Tashan defensive position has always stood firm.
I fought with the enemy in Tashan for several days, but Chiang Kai-shek never took Tashan's position. Chiang Kai-shek also cursed Jin Dong Corps in his telegram: "Niang Xipi!"
/kloc-in the early morning of 0/5, Chiang Kai-shek's eastward corps tried to sneak up on our position when our army was exhausted, but it was finally discovered by our fourth platoon. Our army immediately dealt with them with artillery and bullets.
At noon, Chiang Kai-shek's troops saw Jinzhou fall, and it was meaningless to capture Tashan, so they ordered a full retreat.
According to post-war statistics, after six days and nights, our army wiped out more than 6,000 enemies at the cost of 3,000 people in Tashan, and the losses on both sides were 1:2.
Chairman Mao also commented on this: "Four verticals are there, Tashan is there!"
At this point, Tashan has become a monument in the military history of * * * and China, and it is also a desolate place and a place of honor in Sizong. For the commanders who commanded the Battle of Tashan, this is a place where they miss each other.
Many years later, eight generals who commanded the Battle of Tashan came to Tashan in unison. .......
Next, let's take a look at the eight founding generals on the burial tower!
After that battle, the general of the Fourth Longitudinal Army, headed by Wu Kehua, led the soldiers and followed the four fields to fight in the north, with remarkable results. Many commanders and soldiers were also appointed generals at the ceremony of 1955.
Time flies, time flies, these founding generals later engaged in various jobs under the arrangement of the organization.
Despite this, their hearts have been worried about their comrades who died in Tashan.
Everyone has to go through birth and death. These outstanding founding generals came to the end of their lives in the 1980s and 1990s. At the end of their lives, their only entrustment to their families is to be buried in Tashan!
1987, General Wu Kehua, former commander-in-chief of Tashan Campaign, died suddenly in Guangzhou. On his deathbed, he said to his family, "I want to sleep with my fallen comrades as an ordinary soldier!" " "
1 August 9881day is the birthday of China People's Liberation Army on June1.
On this day, my wife followed her husband's instructions and came to Tashan with General Wu's urn. They came to the wordless monument in Tashan, where a simple and solemn memorial ceremony was held. Finally, according to her husband's instructions, they scattered his ashes on the bright red land of Tashan.
1990, commander Jiang and Jiao Yushan were killed in succession before Tashan War.
Shortly thereafter, General Li Fuze, who had been fighting in Tashan, also died.
The last words of the three generals were surprisingly consistent-"Buried in Tashan!"
1On July 4th, 997, Hu Qicai, deputy commander of the 4th Division of Tashan Defence War, died of stomach bleeding.
/kloc-in July, 2000, before he died, he met his old subordinate, Zhang Wannian, and attended the handover ceremony of the Hong Kong regime on behalf of all the people in Tashan and China. Seeing this, he felt a strong sense of national pride.
When leaving, he told his family that his last wish was to be buried in Tashan!
1997 in order to better carry forward the spirit of Tashan, the Huludao Municipal People's Government decided to build a martyrs cemetery around Tashan and report the plan to the state. Soon after, the state approved this project, and the Tashan Martyrs Cemetery also started construction.
With the completion of the project, the civil affairs department also began to bury the remains of martyrs who died in the Battle of Tashan to the Tashan Martyrs Cemetery.
On March 24th, 1998, villagers from Houshan Village, Gao Qiao Town, Lianshan District and Duanmuchong Village, Laoguanbao Township spontaneously came to the tomb of the martyrs to see them off.
In order to accomplish this task better, the local garrison troops led 1300 soldiers to the scattered tombs of martyrs and began to "move" these heroes carefully.
After three hours of hard work, the remains of the martyrs were loaded with nine hearses and slowly drove into the Tashan Martyrs Cemetery by police cars.
Subsequently, the military leaders of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the General Political Department of the People's Liberation Army, the Guangzhou Military Region, the League of Legends in Tashan, the Huludao Municipal Party Committee, the Municipal Government and other units shoveled soil for the tomb of the martyrs.
Subsequently, Zhang Wannian, then member of the the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and secretary of the Secretariat, and Vice Chairman personally wrote an inscription for Tashan Martyrs Cemetery-"The heroes and heroes of Tashan are immortal-1998 Qingming".
1998165438+10.2 On the 50th anniversary of the liberation of Northeast China, the families of generals Jiang, Jiao Yushan, Li Fuze and others took their husbands' and fathers' ashes home. They followed the orders of four generals and were buried beside their comrades!
On May 3, 2000, Kloc-0, Mo Wenhua, political commissar of Tashan Campaign, died. In accordance with his wishes, the Central Military Commission did not bury Mo Wenhua's ashes immediately, but kept them in the ashes storage room in Babaoshan, where he waited for an old comrade-in-arms.
In 2003, Lieutenant General Ou Yangwen, an old comrade-in-arms of Mo Wenhua, died of illness. Later, two old friends were buried together in the "Tashan Martyrs Cemetery" under the escort of their families.
In 20 14, Li Hongmao died unfortunately, and the state buried him in Tashan Martyrs Cemetery according to his wishes before his death.
The Battle of Tashan is a masterpiece of a generation of great men and a glorious chapter in the history of China People's Liberation Army. Here, the soldiers of Battalion 4 completed a seemingly impossible arduous military task with their own flesh and blood and superb tactics.
Finally, after the Battle of Tashan, the "Tashan Spirit" with patriotism as the core was gradually formed!
Many years later, the generals who commanded and participated in the Battle of Tashan still did not forget their comrades who were buried in this land. After their death, they all made the decision to "return to Tashan".
Finally, I sincerely wish Tashan Yinglie rest in heaven!
I wish the spirit of Tashan "the heroic spirit of Tashan will last forever"!
