In 1943, the 112th Regiment was surrounded by the Japanese Invaders, and fought with the Japanese Invaders for more than 50 days by virtue of their positions. The commander of the 38th Division led his troops to the rescue, marched rapidly for more than 20 days, and rushed to the place where the 112th Regiment was besieged. After 6 days and 6 nights of bloody fighting, the 38th Army defeated the enemy and captured more than 1,200 enemies. ”

In November 1941, the former National ** Anti-Smuggling Corps was reorganized into the new 38th Division, and Captain Sun of the former Anti-Smuggling Corps was appointed as the division commander. The new 38th Division had the 112th Regiment, 113th Regiment, and 114th Regiment under its command, and was soon included in the Expeditionary Force sequence and entered Burma to participate in the war. In the bloody battles that followed, the new 38th Division made outstanding achievements, and the 112th Regiment repeatedly created miracles on the battlefield.

In March 1944, the 1st Battalion of the 112th Regiment infiltrated behind enemy lines and launched a counterattack against the Japanese invaders, encountering a large Japanese army head-on. The Japanese army pursued them, and more than 200 soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the 112th Regiment retreated while fighting and burrowed into the deep mountains and old forests. The Japanese invaders caught up, and the soldiers of the 1st Battalion retreated to a cliff position, and there was no way to retreat.

At this time, the commander of the 1st battalion stared at the big banyan tree beside him and shouted in a low voice: "Climb up the tree, climb up the tree quickly." Everyone climbed up the towering banyan tree with great difficulty and hid in the canopy of the big banyan tree. The Japanese invaders pursued and saw that this place was empty, so they ran to the edge of the cliff to check, and couldn't figure out where the soldiers of the 1st Battalion had gone

Taking advantage of the gathering of most of the Japanese invaders, the commander of the 1st battalion shouted: "* Beat hard." In an instant, a dense stream of bullets came out of the canopy and hit the Japanese soldiers, killing 72 Japanese soldiers. When the Japanese army heard the gunshots, they immediately followed the sound and surrounded the big banyan tree.

This large banyan tree is several hundred meters tall and has a canopy that shades the sky, making it an excellent hiding place. The Japanese commander brought in small steel cannons and bombarded the canopy, trying to force the soldiers of the 1st Battalion to fall from the trees. However, the cannonball hit the canopy of the tree with a muffled sound, and only a few branches were broken, and after the branches fell, one Japanese soldier was killed.

The Japanese commander saw that the shells had no effect and that the sky was getting dark again, so he could only order: "Surround the big banyan tree and attack again tomorrow during the day." That night, the commander of the 1st battalion left 40 soldiers to guard the canopy, and he himself led his subordinates to the trees and set up positions on the high ground under the big trees.

By the early morning of the second day, when the Japanese invaders attacked, a simple fortification had been built under the big banyan tree, and the cooperation between the open space and the ground had been realized. The position on the canopy of the big banyan tree was protected from the ground position, and the position on the canopy of the big banyan tree condescendingly attacked the enemy, and more than a dozen waves of attacks by the Japanese invaders were repulsed one after another.

Someone will ask: "What if the 1st Battalion runs out of bullets, food, and drinking water?""The 1 battalion commander still had a way, he took the radio and called for air support and asked friendly planes to drop supplies. Friendly forces were unable to provide quick support from the ground, but air support was swift and supplies were quickly dropped.

In this way, with a strong will, the soldiers of the 1st Battalion confronted the Japanese invaders for 43 days and waited for the rescue force to come. With the cooperation of the brother troops, the 1st Battalion launched a counterattack and routed the besieged enemy, achieving a battlefield miracle of winning more with less. The same 112th regiment, a few months ago, created the same classic example.

In November 1943, the 112th Regiment was ordered to enter the Hukang River Valley and fight against the Japanese invaders in the Lajiasu area. As soon as the 112th Regiment entered the valley area, it was discovered by the secret outpost of the 55th Wing of the Japanese Army, and was immediately surrounded by the regiments of the 55th Wing of the Japanese Army. The 112th Regiment had no heavy firepower, so it could only rely on the terrain to quickly build fortifications and begin to confront the Japanese invaders, who were dozens of times their size.

With the air supply of friendly forces and the condescending position, the soldiers of the 112th Regiment confronted the Japanese 55th Wing for more than 50 days. When Commander Sun of the 38th Division learned the news, he immediately led his troops to rescue and rushed to the Hukang River Valley after a rapid march of more than 20 days to launch an attack on the back of the 55th Wing of the Japanese invaders.

In the case of flanking from both sides, the soldiers of the 38th Division finally defeated the Japanese 55th Wing after 6 days and 6 nights of bloody battles. In this battle, the new 38th Division captured a large number of ** ammunition and captured more than 1,200 enemies (equivalent to the strength of 1 Japanese brigade). For what to do with this group of captives?The subordinates came to ask Commander Sun, but Commander Sun only said: "This group of enemies has been to Nanjing, and they have committed many forgiven crimes, and they are all dealt with on the spot. ”

After the subordinates received the order, on the morning of the second day, more than 1,200 captives disappeared, and there was only one more newly filled pit in the deep mountains and old forests. In the seventies and eighties of the last century, the families of the Japanese invaders proposed to the International Tribunal: "Master Sun had buried more than 1,200 Japanese prisoners alive and demanded that he pay 200 million yuan in compensation." ”

When Master Sun heard this, he just replied: "To say that I buried the Japanese prisoners alive, I have to come up with conclusive evidence, and if there is no evidence, it is a false accusation." These Japanese invaders participated in the Great ** in Nanjing, killing thousands of innocent people, and they deserved to die. I think that if we want to compensate, you will also compensate us, and this is justice. ”

The family members of the Japanese invaders were speechless, and Master Sun was righteous and Ling Ran, which shocked these small people from the East and left them speechless.
