Volunteer Army 27th Corps 80 Division 239 Regiment 4 Company
When it was company commander
Li Changyan
Only 22 years old
He led the team in the first battle in Xinxingli
Destroyed the command post of the US "Polar Bear Regiment"
Seized the "Polar Bear Group" flag
△The then company commander Li Changyan
Today, 71 years have passed
Li Changyan is
93 years
old
Recently, reporters from the main station found the old man
Recalling the experience of the bloody battle
The old company commander is still
very tough
The instructor tragically died in the battle
Li Changyan led the soldiers to destroy the enemy command post
November 1950
The second battle of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea started
Li Changyan
, the then 4th company commander
Lead soldiers to participate in the battle to encircle the enemy in Xinxingli
This sharp knife company
Braved the extreme cold to advance into Changjin Lake
Go deep behind the enemy to detect the enemy's situation, wait for the opportunity to move...
△ Map of battle history in Xinxingli
Reminiscent of the war years of continuous artillery fire
Li Changyan is still fresh in his memory
In the wind and snow near minus 40 ℃
The soldiers only wore a thin coat
"At that time we couldn't wear or eat
Stir fry the sorghum rice noodles when you are hungry
Stuff your mouth
The company fights mainly with rifles
Weapon and enemy ratio
Ten of them can't keep up with one of them."
Li Changyan said
"We have enemies 10 miles forward
Battalion Commander Orders 4 Company
Reconnaissance while advancing, annihilate the enemy according to the situation"
On November 27, night fell
Not long after the company set off
I found a canopy in front with a light inside
Li Changyan leads the soldiers
Quietly touched the enemy
A fierce battle broke out between the two sides
Unfortunately, in this battle
Instructor Zhuang Yuandong died
△Instructor Zhuang Yuandong
Li Changyan recalled
"The instructor led a platoon to charge towards the enemy
I lead two rows here
The platoon leader came and told me that the instructor Zhuang Yuandong had sacrificed
My anger suddenly rose."
He shouted to the soldiers:
"Fight to death! Don't leave one!
Take revenge for the instructor! "
The morale of the soldiers is up
4th company fighters use terrain
Leap forward and outflank the enemy
The U.S. Army was caught off guard by this close tactic
Except for one that fled in a hurry, most of them were wiped out on the spot.
Li Changyan and the soldiers
I don't know what they destroyed
It was the command post of the so-called "Polar Bear Regiment"
Killed the famous
Colonel McLean, head of the "Polar Bear Regiment"
This captured US "Polar Bear Regiment" flag
Now displayed in the military museum↓

The old hero points out the reason for the victory
"Three conditions are indispensable"
Fighting in Xinxingli
4 companies killed more than 300 enemies
Captured 12 howitzers
For the 27th Army of the Volunteer Army
Equipped with inferior equipment to complete annihilation, modernize and equip 1 strengthening regiment of the U.S. Army
Made a vital contribution
December 1950
The company was awarded by the 27th Corps of the Volunteers
"Xingxingli Fighting Model Company"
title
Company commander Li Changyan was awarded second-class merit
△ Li Changyan when he was young
Starvation, frostbite
Weapon and equipment power disparity
How did we win the battle?
The old company commander concluded:
"Wise command, tenacious soldiers, support from the people
Three conditions are indispensable for victory."
Now remember that year
The old hero's words are loud and loud
"There is always sacrifice in war
But you can’t retreat just because of sacrifice
You have to rush, you have to fight, you have to fight
I had already put life and death out of the way in the war.
You can only move forward, not back."
Later, the "Xingxingli Fighting Model Company" was transferred many times.
Reorganized into the 4th company of a brigade of the 82nd Army of the Army

Mention these feats
Many details are not even known to my family

Have to provoke a responsibility
Low-key
△ Li Changyan looks through his diary

The old company commander burst into tears:
"There were too many comrades falling in a pool of blood back then
Trade life for today's flourishing age
Those of us who are still alive will never forget"

Our younger generations don’t have to fight."
Touched countless netizens

Li Changyan said
"We only had one idea
Just to win
When the enemy falls, we are victorious! "

I hope the younger generation will always remember
Today is hard to come by!
