During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army was known for its "surprise moves and clever battles", and almost all classic combat examples were related to the 386 Brigade.
General Chen Geng is the first brigade commander of the 386 Brigade, he was born in the general's family, born in the first phase of Huangpu, high IQ and high emotional intelligence, making him unique among many generals and attracting attention.
Even in the hostile camp, there were many Kuomintang generals who regarded General Chen Geng as their friend, and even more so Chiang Kai-shek, the "president" of the Kuomintang, never forgot Chen Geng, the life-saving benefactor.
Chen Geng, Hu Zongnan.
However, General Chen Geng and his classmate Hu Zongnan were "incompatible", and since the Whampoa Military Academy, the two have fought almost all their lives.
When he was at the Whampoa Military Academy, Chen Geng and Hu Zongnan belonged to two social organizations with different political views, Hu Zongnan belonged to the "Sun Wenism Society", and Chen Geng belonged to the "Young Military Federation".
Because of their different ideas and positions, the students of the two societies often clashed.
Conflicts often begin with debates, and when they are inseparable, these strong-blooded soldiers will fight and resolve their differences in the most primitive and simple way.
Chen Geng and Hu Zongnan are the main "generals" of the two factions, so the two often quarrel and fight, and they are like fire and water.
When it comes to fighting alone, Hu Zongnan's "combat effectiveness" can't compete with Chen Geng, but Hu Zongnan has his shrewdness - "sugar daddy", bullying others.
At a meeting, the students of the two factions quarreled again, and Chen Geng got into a mess with Li Xianzhou, who was tall and tall.
At this moment, Hu Zongnan didn't know that he ran over from ** and shouted to Li Xianzhou on the side.
Old** Anti-Japanese War.
Chen Geng was angry, he left Li Xianzhou, picked up a bench, and slammed it towards Hu Zongnan.
Hu Zongnan knew that he was not Chen Geng's opponent, so he ran away, Chen Geng was willing to let him go, and chased after him on the bench.
Hu Zongnan eventually hid under the counter of a grocery store, and only then did he escape Chen Geng's bench.
However, when Hu Zongnan fled in all directions, he lost all his military hats, which later became a joke among his classmates.
After leaving the Whampoa Military Academy, Hu Zongnan fought with Chen Geng a lot, but until he was defeated and retreated to Taiwan, Hu Zongnan was always "beaten" by Chen Geng and failed to win once.
When he beat Hu Zongnan at the Whampoa Military Academy, Chen Geng's "** is a bench, after graduating from the Whampoa Military Academy, Chen Geng's ** is no longer so simple.
Especially during the Anti-Japanese War, Chen Geng's ** became varied, terrain, weather, intelligence, and even tree branches, firecrackers, etc., may be regarded by him as a ** to kill the enemy.
Even the small wooden bench showed its might under General Chen Geng, and became an "artifact" that made the Japanese army cry bitterly.
In Chen Geng's tactical dictionary, there has never been the word "step-by-step".
Old ** General Chen Geng.
In a battle in the "Battle of the Hundred Regiments", Chen Geng used a wooden bench to tease the Japanese army.
This time, the 386 Brigade was ordered to block a group of Japanese troops, and according to combat practice, the fighters dug trenches in advance at the blocking position.
After digging to a similar depth, the commander of the first battalion who was digging trenches at the front was just about to bring back the troops, but found that Brigade Commander Chen Geng and his party had come to the position.
Inspecting the position before the big battle is a consistent practice of Brigadier Chen Geng.
Chen Geng glanced at the trench that the soldiers had just dug and said to the commander of the first battalion: "The depth of the trench is not enough, we have to dig it deeper and widen it to ensure that the devil can't cross it." ”
Brigade Commander Chen Geng then instructed: "In addition, three hundred meters back, another trench will be dug. ”
The soldiers hurriedly took action, a group of soldiers dug a second trench, and the rest of the fighters continued to dig deep into the trench until Brigade Commander Chen Geng called "good".
However, the soldiers looked at the newly dug trenches and were dumbfounded.
It turned out that the trenches were dug too deep and turned into "deep trenches".
Standing in the trenches, most of the fighters could not stand out, even the tall ones had to stand on tiptoe to barely reach the guns to aim and shoot.

At this time, Brigade Commander Chen Geng asked people to build up two ammunition boxes and stepped up in one step, he looked around, and said to the battalion commander with satisfaction: "This depth is just right, and it will be impossible to reach it if you dig it any further." ”
The battalion commander was confused, and muttered in his heart: Now this is beyond reach......
The first battalion commander wanted to ask clearly, but he thought that the brigade commander must have a reason for asking for this.
The officers and men of the 386 Brigade all know that their Brigade Commander Chen has a lot of ideas, and he often has some whimsical ideas that ordinary people can't imagine.
Therefore, the commander of the first battalion did not dare to ask for a long time.
At this time, Brigade Commander Chen Geng instructed the commander of the first battalion: "At dawn tomorrow, your battalion will enter the forward trenches first, remember, let the soldiers bring the benches, 'people do not leave the stools, and the stools do not leave people', there can be no mistakes!" ”
The commander of the first battalion did not have time to think about it and conveyed the order of the brigade commander word for word.
The soldiers were stunned one by one, they really couldn't understand: why do you need to bring stools for war?
Some of the new soldiers whispered behind their backs: "The brigade commander is too particular, can we still sit down and rest for a while when we are tired?" ”
It's just that you want to rest for a while, can other devils let you rest? ”
However, a veteran's words dispelled everyone's suspicions: "Our Brigade Commander Chen is a 'god', you can't be wrong by listening to his words, you will know after this battle." ”
At dawn the next day, the commander of a battalion entered the trench with the fighters with benches on their shoulders.
All of them go to the bench and get ready for battle! "The first order was given by the commander of the first battalion.
Stills from the TV series "Bright Sword".
The soldiers stood on the bench one by one, and then they understood: no wonder we want to bring the bench, the trench is so deep, stepping on the bench is just enough to aim and shoot.
However, a new question arises: why dig the trenches so deep? Fighting with a bench, isn't it "taking off your pants and farting - purely superfluous?" ”
The soldiers were not allowed to think too much, the Japanese devils had already pounced.
After repelling the first round of the devil's charge, the commander of the first battalion conveyed the order of Brigade Commander Chen Geng: "All attention, take all the benches, and retreat to the second trench!" Be quick! ”
Remove? The soldiers looked ignorant, although they did not understand in their hearts, and the order had to be carried out to the letter.
The fighters simply didn't bother to think about it, obeyed the orders and listened to the command, carried the benches one by one, and withdrew to the second trench in one go.
It was only then that the warriors felt something unusual:
The Japanese devils were still following closely behind just now, shooting guns and shouting again, why do you only hear their cranking and shouting now, but there are no people and no gunshots?
Before the soldiers had time to catch their breath, the commander of the first battalion issued the latest order from Brigadier Chen Geng: "Stay on the bench and go back and continue to fight!" ”
The fighters quickly threw off the benches, jumped out of the trenches and turned around and threw themselves at the leading "deep trenches".
When he was more than ten meters away from the "deep trench", the commander of the first battalion gave another order: "Stop advancing, all lie down, listen to my order, and throw grenades into the trench!" ”
One by one, the grenades flew towards the "deep trench" with green smoke, accompanied by pieces of ** sounds, and the devils and ghosts in the "deep trench" cried wolf howls and flesh and blood fly.
When there was no movement in the "deep trench", the soldiers surrounded it.
In the deep trench, there were 100 corpses of Japanese devils.
It dawned on the fighters that it was so!
The "deep trench" was originally prepared for the Japanese devils, because the trench was too wide, and they had no way to cross the trench to pursue the Eighth Route Army, so they could only jump into the trench to talk.
When they jumped into the trench, they realized that the trench had been dug too deep.
The Japanese were generally short in stature, and in the trenches "customized" for them by the Eighth Route Army, even if the devil soldiers jumped up, they couldn't reach the aim and shoot.
The Japanese commander who fell into the "pit" should have understood the opponent's intentions at this time, and he was so angry and hateful that he turned to order the soldiers to climb out of the trenches and continue the attack.
Brigade Commander Chen Geng didn't leave time for the devil to counterattack at all, and with an order, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army had already been killed.
General Chen Geng. The devil officers and soldiers watched with their eyes stunned as grenades fell from the sky.
They have nothing to hide, nothing to hide, and can only desperately wait for death to come.
The news quickly spread to the *** division commander who was holding a meeting at the headquarters, and the ** division commander smiled: "This Chen Geng always gives you such and such surprises." ”
Mr. Peng has always been unsmiling, but at this time, he was happy to speak, and he scolded with appreciation: "This kid, there are too many ghost ideas, well done!" That's all you have to do with those brutes! ”
Mr. Peng said it well, there has never been such a taboo against those inhumane invaders.
Do not hesitate to use all means to defeat them and destroy them, this is the "royal way"!
