In 1985, the unit of the "Five Heroes of Langya Mountain" has evolved into the 193rd Division of the 65th Group Army, implementing the establishment of the Northern A Motorized Infantry Division

In September 1941, the invading Japanese army launched a "sweep" in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei border area of our country, and the 7th Company of the 1st Regiment of the 1st Army Subdivision of the Jin-Chahar-Hebei Military Region of the Eighth Route Army sent 6 squads to carry out the mission behind the palace. The 6th squad led by Ma Baoyu, when the ammunition and food were exhausted, would rather jump off the cliff than become a prisoner and become the "Five Heroes of Langya Mountain".

The origin and development of the 1st Red Division.

In June 1933, the 1st Division of the 1st Army of the Red Army was established to participate in the Fifth Anti-"Encirclement and Suppression" and the Long March. In December 1935, the 1st Red Division was rebuilt and the 1st Regiment was under its jurisdiction. In August 1937, the 1st Red Division was reorganized into the Independent Regiment of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army, and then expanded into the 1st Independent Division of the Eighth Route Army, and was also the First Army Division of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region.

However, with the development, the units of the 1st Red Division changed, and the units that originally had the blood of the Red Army were gradually transferred out, and finally the 193rd Division was formed, which no longer had traces of the "Red Army". During the Anti-Japanese War, the 193rd Division participated in many battles, especially in the Battle of Annihilation at Loess Ridge.

The 193rd Division's achievements in resisting US aggression and aiding Korea.

In November 1948, the 4th Brigade was transferred to the 8th Column of the 2nd Corps of the North China Military Region and renumbered the 22nd Brigade. In February 1949, the 22nd Brigade was renamed the 193rd Division of the 65th Army, under the jurisdiction of the 577th Regiment, 578th Regiment and 579th Regiment. In the War of Liberation, the 193rd Division and its predecessor units participated in a number of battles, destroying the enemy 390,000 people, won the banner of "Megatron North China".

In December 1950, the 193rd Division formed a divisional artillery regiment, and in February 1951, it entered the war in Korea with the army. During the Korean War, the 193rd Division participated in the Fifth Campaign, the Yeoncheon Blockade, and the Battle of Kaesong, killing and wounding 8,960 enemies, and gaining the reputation of "the heroic defender of Kaesong".

Subsequent development of the 193rd Division.

In October 1953, the 193rd Division returned from North Korea and was stationed in Xuanhua, Hebei. In November, the 398th regiment of tank self-propelled artillery under the division was formed. In September 1968, the regiment was transferred to the 7th Tank Division. Over the years, the 193rd Division has played the role of the main division in combat readiness training and local support.

In October 1984, the 193rd Division participated in the National Day parade for the 35th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. In 1985, the 193rd Division was retained as the ace main division of the 65th Group Army, and the infantry establishment of the Northern Jiazhumo was implemented, including the 577th Regiment, the 578th Regiment, the 579th Regiment, the Artillery Regiment, the Tank Regiment, and the Antiaircraft Artillery Regiment.

The road to a strong army of the 193rd Division.

In the 90s, the 193rd Mobu Division actively strengthened the army and achieved great results repeatedly. In 1997, the 3rd Company of the 578th Regiment was awarded the honor of "Model Company for Grassroots Construction" by the ** Military Commission. In August 1998, after disarmament, the 193rd Mobu Division was adjusted, the 578th Regiment was abolished, and the tank regiment was rebuilt.

Beginning in 1999, the 193rd Mobu Division was selected as a first-class military training unit of the whole army for eight consecutive years. In 2009, he participated in the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the National Day parade, showing the demeanor of the "Red First Division".

Reorganization on the eve of military reform.

On the eve of the military reform, the 193rd Mobu Division was reorganized and divided into the 193rd Light Infantry Brigade and the 194th Mechanized Infantry Brigade. Compared with the division-level structure, the regiment-level structure has been abolished, the command level has been highly flattened, the number of personnel has been greatly reduced, and the combat effectiveness has been enhanced.

In February 2016, the Beijing Military Region was withdrawn, and the Jibu Brigade was transferred to the Central Theater Army with the army. In April 2017, the 193rd Brigade of Jibu was transferred to the 83rd Group Army of the Central Theater Army and renamed the Composite Brigade. The 194th Jibu Brigade remained in the 81st Group Army of the Central Theater Army and was renamed the Composite Brigade.
