Guerrillas are called Hao in Ye.
As early as 1 1 division stationed in Ningguo, Ye, then the brigade commander of the 33rd Brigade, put forward the proposal of setting up a commando team based on1/division teaching team. At this time, the 18 army received the order to fight guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines, and will carry out Ye's original proposal, organize the 16 commando team, and appoint Rong Xiaoyu, the battalion commander of the original 14 division, as the captain. At the same time, it was decided that 1 1 deputy division commander Ye would be responsible for the training.
16 commandos initially managed two brigades. These two brigades were respectively adapted from the teaching team of 18 Army1Division and the troops transferred from other divisions of 18 Army. The troops directly under 16 Army Corps were transferred to form the engineering team, reconnaissance team and communication team as the direct troops of the commando corps. After inspecting the Corps, General Ye reorganized the Corps into three brigades according to the actual needs, and the Corps Department changed to a platoon, which was responsible for reconnaissance, communication and spy work.
After the reorganization of the troops, General Ye personally taught guerrilla tactics to the cadres of the Corps. He advocated the flexible tactical policy of "the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I chase, the enemy is stationed and disturbed, and the enemy is tired and I fight". After a week's training by General Ye, this regiment was under the direct command of Luo, the head of 16 Corps, and went to Anji, Changxing, Yixing, Liyang, langxi, Xuancheng and Guangde to carry out guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines. The Corps once attacked the Second Brigade of the Fourth United Front of the Japanese Army in Longdongqiao, killing 207 people under Saburo Matsui, the captain of the Second Brigade. He also successfully ambushed the trench troops of the Second Reserve Infantry Regiment on Si 'an Highway, destroyed Japanese cars 12 and killed 38 Japanese soldiers. In addition, 16 commandos repeatedly destroyed Japanese strongholds and attacked Japanese supply bases in the above-mentioned guerrilla areas, with fruitful results. In order to solve this assault regiment, in mid-May, the Japanese army decided to attack the north and south with a reinforced brigade of the 4th and 23rd wings of the 2nd Reserve Infantry Regiment, 1938, in an attempt to annihilate the 16 assault regiment.
When the Japanese tried to learn the news of Luo, they immediately ordered the 16 assault corps to act quickly, put it under the command of General Ye, the deputy division commander of 1 1, and attached it to the 1 division 3 1 brigade and the troops directly under the division to carry out counter-attacks against the Japanese troops stationed in the local area. After the arrival of Deputy Commander Ye, he joined forces directly under the 1 1 division, 3 1 brigade and 16 assault corps to form the "Jiangsu-Anhui detachment", and the 3 1 brigade commander was reorganized into the detachment headquarters to work with Mei Chunhua, the brigade commander of 3 1 brigade.
1938 May 14, Ye led the "Su-Wan detachment" to the southern mountainous area of Guangde, and then held a military meeting. In view of the Japanese troops stationed in the local area, they decided to attack Qiao Feng, where the Japanese defense was the weakest. Qiao Feng is only 25 kilometers away from Tan Yang, and it can be reached in an hour's drive. The Qiao Feng Guard is just a reinforced squadron of the 3rd Brigade of the 23rd United Front of the Japanese Army, with more than 220 people.
At the military meeting, General Ye decided to take the 6 1 regiment of the 3 1 brigade as the main attack force, and the 621brigade and the 61commando regiment of the 3 1 brigade to undertake the task of blocking foreign aid. At 5: 00 am on May 1938, the detachment artillery launched a sudden shelling on the Japanese troops stationed in Qiao Feng, causing more than half of the Japanese troops who were sleeping soundly to die. Therefore, General Ye ordered the troops to quickly penetrate into the village from three directions. After an hour and a half of fierce fighting, the 6 1 regiment wiped out the reinforced squadron, and the squadron leader Maeda Masaji killed 68 people and captured the Japanese 134 people (including the wounded 108 people). When the Japanese army learned that Qiao Feng was besieged, they came to the rescue by two squadrons of the Fourth United Front in two ways, but they were intercepted by the aid forces of the "Su-Wan Detachment" on the way, causing heavy casualties and being forced to withdraw from the original line of defense.
After the "Su-Wan detachment" won the first battle, the commander General Ye immediately arranged troops near Guangde to prepare for the possible counterattack of the Japanese army. On May 20th, 1938, the Japanese army really launched a counterattack with 147 as the main force. Due to General Ye's proper deployment, Suwan Detachment successfully ambushed the vanguard troops of the 1st147th United Wing on the afternoon of February1,and killed the Japanese squadron leader Fang Wei 124. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Japanese team leader Harada Fuliang ordered the troops to retreat and planned to fight back after a break.
However, General Ye did not give the Japanese a chance to breathe. After the victory of Guangde's counterattack, he turned his attention to Ningguo. Although Ningguo only has 106 the 4th Squadron of Japanese Cavalry Brigade 100, Xuancheng, about 60 kilometers away from Ningguo, has about two battalions of the main force of 147. If the defenders of Ningguo are attacked, they can immediately get reinforcements from the Japanese army in Xuancheng. In order to recover Ningguo smoothly, General Ye decided to pretend to attack Xuancheng with 16 assault corps, which made our army have the illusion of capturing and recovering Xuancheng, contained the 147 United front, and achieved the goal of recovering Ningguo with 3 1 brigade.
1938 After the dawn fighting broke out on May 23rd, the former Japanese 147 joint captain Tian Zhen was cheated. After the stronghold outside the city was captured by the China army, he could not leave the city. I want the cavalry squadron stationed in Ningguo to rescue Xuancheng. Ye immediately ordered the 3 1 brigade to attack Ningguo after seeing the Japanese army recruiting. After more than two hours of fighting, the 4th Squadron of 106 Cavalry Brigade was annihilated, killing 53 men under the squadron leader Hideo Chamura, 56 prisoners and 97 horses. After the recovery of Ningguo, General Ye ordered the 16 Commando Corps to immediately quit the fighting and assemble Ningguo.
With the successive victories of "Jiangsu-Anhui detachment" led by General Ye in Guangde, Ningguo and other places, and the opening of traffic lines from Ningguo to Guangde and Shexian, it provided favorable conditions for the 3 1 Station Division to supply logistics to various units. On May 26th, 1938, General Ye received a commendation telegram from General Luo, commander-in-chief of Ningguo 19 Army. The telegram said: "1 1 Ye, deputy division commander, personally led the 3 1 brigade and the assault corps. Over the past few days, Lianke Guangde and Ningguo have been hit hard by the enemy, especially in Guo Feng. A special bonus of 50,000 yuan was awarded to show encouragement. Meritorious officers and soldiers, with reports, Syria awarded medals. "
1On June 29th, 938, the Japanese army invaded Pengze, and the garrison167th Division was defeated. That evening, the 1 1 division assembled in Qimen received an order to recover Penzer. 1 1 Peng Shan, the division commander, was led by Ye, the deputy division commander. The first group to leave was the 3 1 brigade and the 33rd brigade and the 66th regiment. The troops led by General Ye arrived at their destination on July 6th. At 4 o'clock in the morning on July 2, General Ye took the opportunity that the Japanese army had not yet noticed, and under the cover of artillery fire, he took the lead in attacking the Japanese army in Pengze. After fierce fighting until noon, the troops participating in the attack successively occupied the Japanese strongholds on the periphery of Pengze. Since then, the follow-up troops led by teacher Peng Shan have also gone to the battlefield to participate in the war and oppress the Japanese army in the city.
On July 3rd, 1938, after the Japanese army was reinforced, the head of the 1 1 brigade personally commanded and launched a fierce counterattack against the position of the 33rd brigade of11division. During the battle, Ye, the deputy commander, and Wang Yan, the brigade commander of the 33rd Brigade, both went to the front line to direct operations, thus defeating the Japanese counterattack.
When 1 1 division was planning to attack further, the whole situation suddenly took a turn for the better. At the same time, 1 1 division also received new orders: "18 army immediately stopped attacking the enemy forces in Pengzecheng and Zhongjiakou, and quickly maneuvered at night ... 1 1, 16, 60th division, 77.
After receiving new orders, 1 1 division launched an attack at dusk on July 3. After synthesizing all kinds of information, Ye, the deputy division commander, inferred the weak links of the Japanese army. After consulting with Pengshan, General Ye led the 33rd Brigade to the Japanese Army123rd United Headquarters, wounded its co-captain Keshao, killed 87 people under the divisional staff officer Nobuo Fujita and wiped out the Japanese army at the same time. Later, General Ye sent troops to chase the fleeing enemy, and at the same time organized commandos to annihilate all the recalcitrant Japanese troops.
On the afternoon of July 3rd, 1938, the Japanese army, led by 136 brigade Changqing Mu Jing 145 regiment, attached the field artillery 106 regiment, the independent mountain artillery 12 regiment and the engineer 106 regiment to/. However, under the command of Deputy Commander Ye, the 33rd Brigade ambushed, harassed and blocked the Japanese 145 United Front. After a night of fighting, the 33rd Brigade wiped out more than 300 people below the Japanese battalion chief, forcing the Japanese army 145 United Front to quit the fighting.
On July 4th, 1938, 1 1 division was ordered to attack the Japanese13 united front in Meilankou after a short rest in Lisan town. It was the rainy season, and the visibility was extremely low due to the bad weather. Taking advantage of this situation, 1 1 division suddenly broke into the Japanese position, giving the Japanese a surprise, and its forward position was seized by 1 1 division. After the successful assault, 1 1 division put the reserve team into battle and captured Meilankou in one fell swoop. 3 1 Brigade pursued the retreating Japanese army together with the friendly army 16 Division 48 Brigade, and captured another stronghold of the Japanese army, Longtan Mountain.
Just as the 3 1 Brigade and the 48th Brigade captured Longtan Mountain, the Japanese 145 United Front, under the cover of the navy, attacked Lisan Town, south of Hukou, with landing craft and armored motorboats. This action of the Japanese army, in the fierce battle between Liu and the Japanese army in Shawan, seriously threatened the side and rear safety of the 33rd Brigade.
At this time, 1 1 division commander Peng Shan has not returned from the military meeting. Ye, the deputy commander of the army, learned of this situation, and when the 3 1 brigade was not yet built and the 33rd brigade was in danger of being attacked from front to back, he took the risk of dispatching the 66th regiment of the 33rd brigade to block the 145 wing. After more than three hours of blocking, the 66th Regiment finally persisted with the assistance of the 3 1 Brigade, repelling the attack of the Japanese 145 United Front, and more than 300 people under the second battalion commander Fukushima were killed. 1 1 division's adventure not only kept its own safety, but also gave the 26th division of friendly forces a breathing space. After the war, the Military Commission awarded Deputy Commander Ye a four-level Yunhui Medal in recognition of his achievements in this campaign.
On August 27th, 1938, the 9th Division of the Japanese Army broke through the positions of Li Yushan and Bijiashan of the 30th Army of the Chinese Army. The Commander-in-Chief of the 9th Theater dispatched 18 Army for reinforcements, and the 1 1 Division under the 18 Army was ordered to recapture the 36th United Front positions of the Japanese army, such as Niujinshan, Arctic Peak and Minshan Dawu. Among them, the 3 1 brigade led by Ye, the deputy commander, launched an attack on 1938 on September 3. After two hours of fierce fighting, the 3 1 brigade 6 1 regiment conquered Niujinshan and the North Pole Peak, killing more than 300 people. Four hours later, the Japanese army assembled 1 more than 10,000 people to violently counterattack, and the casualties of 3 1 brigade increased sharply. At this critical juncture, Deputy Commander Ye personally led the 3rd Battalion of the 62nd Regiment of the Reserve and ordered the battalion to detour to the rear of the Japanese army to carry out a surprise attack and finally defeat it. At the same time, the main force of the 62nd Regiment finally captured Minshan Prefecture. 1 1 The division began to attack with all its strength and recovered all the positions lost by the original 30 th Army.
On September 4, 1938, the Japanese army lost its position and counterattacked with 35 and 36 wings. At this time, the division commander Peng Shan and the deputy division commander Ye all thought that the 36th United Front Work Department of the Japanese army had been beaten out of the water yesterday, and its combat power was bound to be damaged, so they decided to take the 66th regiment alone to resist the attack of the 36th United Front Work Department of the Japanese army, and concentrate the three main regiments and the troops directly under the division to counterattack the 35th United Front Work Department of the Japanese army. After a day of bloody fighting, 1 1 Division finally defeated the 35th Wing, and the 36th Wing saw that the 35th Wing was defeated, so it began to retreat. The next day, Deputy Commander Ye led the 65th regiment to attack the 36th United Front Work Department of the Japanese army from the flank, and cooperated with the main force of 1 1 division to attack on both sides and defeat the 36th United Front Work Department again.
1 1 division won three victories and wiped out more than 800 people in the three-day fierce battle with the Japanese 36th United Front. Since then, 1 1 division has been ordered to take over the position of the newly compiled 35th division of friendly forces, and fought fiercely with the Japanese 7th United Front for more than ten days. Finally, on September 24th, 1938 left the battlefield of Wuhan Battle due to excessive force damage.
