This incident left a deep impression on Wang Jueying, but he was not sure that he was the man above. So he reported it to the local government, and the local government immediately found this Jiang Cheng. After repeatedly confirming the information, it is finally determined that this Jiang Cheng is the hero of the Anti-Japanese War in the good news. The old man's friends were shocked when they learned the news. Only then did they know that Jiang Cheng, who had been with them for decades, was a war hero and an anti-Japanese war veteran, because in his daily life with his friends, he never mentioned his past, which made his friends not know. Next, let's learn more about this anti-Japanese war hero's past and his heroic deeds in the army, and explore why this good news has not been handed over to the old man for decades.
1928, a baby was born in a poor village in Chongqing. This baby is Jiang Cheng. He was born at a bad time and had to work to support his family at a young age. When he was three years old, the Japanese army invaded China in an all-round way, and War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression broke out in China, which made him live in war every day at such a young age. When he was a teenager, he saw the cruelty and inhumanity of the Japanese army. At that time, he hated these invaders who brought disaster to the country and brought him Japanese devils who lived in exile. However, he was too young to join the army and fight the Japanese army on the battlefield, so he could only continue this wandering life.
Later, the Japanese army surrendered. Originally, Jiang Cheng thought that the war would end. However, civil war broke out again. After a short period of quiet life, Jiang Cheng saw many evil deeds of the national army, such as bullying, robbing people, and forcibly conscripting the national army into the army. After understanding what our army has done for the people, he planted the seeds of joining the army in Jiang Cheng's heart. He continued to join the army with all his heart until our country was declared.
1 94910 June1day, China was proclaimed. Two months later, Jiang Cheng joined the PLA and finally became a long-awaited PLA soldier. A month later, North Korean leader Kim Il Sung hoped to unify the Korean Peninsula. In order to maintain its position in East Asia, the then US President immediately ordered the US troops stationed in Japan to go to South Korea. However, with the continuous victory of the Korean army, South Korea is still completely occupied by North Korea, and these Korean troops and American troops are forced to go to Busan and Daegu. In the later period, due to the increase in the number of American troops and the application of many advanced weapons on the battlefield, the situation of the Korean war was immediately reversed, the Korean army invading South Korea was repelled, and the enemy crossed the 38th parallel, turning a war of supporting South Korea into a war of aggression.
American troops crossed the 38th parallel, threatening China's security. North Korea was defeated, and finally it was hit by the enemy near the Yalu River. North Korea was in danger, so it turned to China for help. After discussion, China agreed to the help sent by the DPRK government, made a quick decision, and organized volunteers to go to the DPRK to help the DPRK. Less than a year after joining the army, Jiang Cheng became a volunteer and crossed the Yalu River with the troops into North Korea to participate in the battle.
In June of 5438+00, the second year after entering the Korean battlefield, the battle of aiding Korea broke out with the most serious casualties. 1October 8th, 165438+ They came to Shangganling, where he met a few remaining volunteers from the 45th Division of the15th Army. They resisted the American army for half a month, but due to the tough armament of the United States, during these half months, the 45th Division sacrificed more than 5,000 people, and more than 5,000 British soldiers remained on the battlefield. But Jiang Cheng didn't flinch when he saw this behind the scenes. He knew that when he went to war, he would never be able to decide his own destiny again. At this time, all of them had to think about how to hold their ground and prevent the position under their feet from falling into the hands of the US military. After resting for 3 days, they were sent to fight in the 537.7 highland of Shangganling, where they fought back against the US troops.
They exchanged fire with American troops immediately after their arrival, and the fighting never stopped. Jiang Cheng's machine gun squad is responsible for the positive breakthrough of the US military. The rest of the soldiers were divided into two ways, forming a double attack on the highland where the US military was located. The enemy bombed our troops, and the sound of shells exploding on the battlefield did not stop. Our soldiers kept falling in the enemy's bombing, and the number of personnel decreased rapidly. In the trenches, their comrades kept falling beside Jiang Cheng, but he almost shot at the enemy crazily, and the enemy was also on Jiang Cheng.
Just as the exchange of fire between the two sides was fierce, the shells landed near Jiang Cheng, and he was also affected by the shells. Shrapnel cut his stomach, and the injury was serious enough to see the internal organs in the abdominal cavity. The comrades-in-arms said to him, "Jiang Cheng, you are injured. You are badly hurt. You can see the intestines in your stomach. You can come down first, I'll go up and you can handle the wound yourself. " After listening to his comrades-in-arms, he replied, "What's serious? All minor injuries. It's okay. You don't have to replace me. Just stick to your position. " He added: "We should learn from Huang Jiguang and Qiu Shaoyun. Huang Jiguang blocked the muzzle of the machine gun with his body, and Qiu was burned alive to keep his position. Compared with them, my injury is nothing at all. " . Hearing these words, the comrades-in-arms became more excited. In later battles, Jiang Cheng, who was seriously injured, wiped out more than 400 enemy troops with machine guns and destroyed the enemy's heavy machine guns.
When the enemy sent planes to bomb our position, Jiang Cheng raised his machine gun and fired at the plane, and the enemy plane was finally shot down. Finally, Jiang collapsed to the ground. After waking up, he was already in the hospital, and the doctor had treated him. At the beginning, when the doctor treated his injury, the doctor who had seen so many wounded people was still frightened by his injury. When it arrived, Jiang Cheng's intestines were exposed, and he was seriously injured. The doctors were not sure whether they could save him, but Jiang Cheng's strong perseverance awakened him. Jiang Cheng became famous in this war.
1953 In July, North Korea and South Korea signed an armistice agreement, and the war ended. Jiang Cheng was also awarded the first class merit for his performance on the battlefield, and was promoted to company commander in June 5438+February of the same year.
In the second year, Jiang Cheng returned to his long-lost motherland. After returning home, China commended the fighters who fought to resist US aggression and aid Korea. Jiang Cheng fought bravely in the Korean battlefield and won the Third Class Medal. Later, after Jiang Cheng stayed in the army for several months, he had to apply for demobilization due to his own physical reasons, and the army agreed to Jiang Cheng's application for demobilization. The Political Department of the Volunteers to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea sent good news to Jiang Cheng's hometown. However, because the address of the above information was incorrectly filled in by the registrant, the good news was returned and placed in the county archives, resulting in people in their hometown not receiving the good news.
After returning to his hometown, Jiang Cheng did not look for the local government for anything. From 65438 to 0964, he raised silkworms at home and became a sericulture worker with peace of mind. His behavior later inspired other local villagers. He starts to work before dawn every day and teaches villagers how to raise silkworms. Every day, he starts before dawn and comes back after dark, so that in the eyes of his son at home, he is a very incompetent father. 1983, the government decided to build a road. When Jiang Cheng heard about the road, he volunteered to lead the local people to build a road. However, the road was not completed, the funds were gone, and there was no money to pay the workers' wages. The road building incident was put on hold for a time, and Jiang Cheng borrowed 1000 yuan to pay the workers, which made the road barely completed.
Eight years later, because Jiang Cheng was too old to repay the loan, he told his son about the loan. At this time, the loan has accumulated to 2400 yuan. At that time, his youngest son built a new house and was about to get married. After listening to his father's words, his youngest son, Jiang Minghui, sold his new house to repay the loan for his father. After Jiang Minghui explained it to his girlfriend, she also expressed her understanding, and they also entered the marriage hall.
If it weren't for the compilation of county annals, Wang Mingjue looked up the information in the county archives. If he hadn't seen the long-buried good news and the name on it, we might not have known Jiang Cheng's heroic deeds until now, and this anti-Japanese hero might still be unknown. Fortunately, although this good news was discovered, it has been 36 years since the Battle of Shangganling. Although it came late, the anti-Japanese war veteran reappeared in our field of vision after 36 years in Shangganling, and let us know about this anti-Japanese war hero. Finally, let's pay high tribute to this hero who has been hidden for 36 years, and pay tribute to him!
