Dong went deep into the enemy camp.

Dong was born in a poor peasant family in Zhucheng, Shandong Province. In order to make a living, he came to Shenyang alone at the age of 13. After arriving in Shenyang, he worked as a finishing worker in a Japanese-funded steel company, often contacting the Japanese, and learned a few half-baked Japanese.

1In August, 945, after the Japanese army announced its surrender, the Eighth Route Army entered Shenyang City. In June of the same year, Dong joined the revolutionary ranks. I like tinkering with machinery and know a few words of Japanese. I was assigned to the special longitudinal tank brigade of the Northeast Field Army as a guard for Gao Ke, the deputy battalion commander. Although it is called the Tank Brigade here, there are no tanks. Their main job is to find tanks.

Dong learned from Gao Kekou that there was a Japanese-run 9 18 tank repair shop in Shenyang, which was controlled by the underground armed forces of the Kuomintang. The tanks in the repair shop are their main target, but those tanks have been destroyed by the Japanese army, and the captured Japanese army is stepping up its maintenance. The factory is heavily guarded. There is absolutely no way to get the tank out without repairing it.

For several days, Dong wore an old cotton-padded jacket, a worn hat and a rustic western-style dress, squatting near the repair shop. With a few words of half-baked Japanese, he really got into the repair shop and got acquainted with several Japanese repairmen.

Finally, one day, the Japanese told him, "The tank has been repaired." Dong was overjoyed and came back to report to Hi-Tech. After careful planning, they began to rob the tank: they pretended to test drive, climbed a 18 ton Japanese tank, and turned around the yard several times after starting, but the guards did not stand guard. Suddenly, Gao Kela lifted the joystick, stepped on the accelerator and rushed to the gate. The enemy realized that something was wrong and fired in panic, but the tank rushed out like a tiger down the mountain. Several enemies trying to close the door were knocked out of a distance, and the tanks roared out.

The enemy guards rushed to the scene and chased after them with guns, but they couldn't catch up. Gao Ke drove the tank to a pre-connected wheat field and covered it with straw. A few days later, they drove the tank to Fushun again. 1 945 65438+February1,they came to majiawan and formed the first tank unit of our army-Northeast Tank Brigade. At that time, the brigade had only one tank, which was the Japanese tank they robbed and became the "hero" in the future.
