In the compilation sequence of the National Revolutionary Army, there have been three 66 armies in history. That is, the 66th Army of the Guangdong Army159th Division, the 66th Army of the 2nd Chief Trainer of the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs, and the 66th Army temporarily composed of the 9th Army.

1937, after the "July 7th" Lugouqiao Incident, Yu Hanmou began to organize the original 10 division into five armies, namely the 62nd, 63rd, 64th, 65th and 66th armies. At this point, the 66th Army is ready to be established. Commander Ye Zhao has jurisdiction over 159 Division, 160 Division, 159 Division Commander Tan Jia and 160 Division Commander Ye Zhao. Each division has jurisdiction over two brigades and two regiments.

On August 1937 and 13, the Japanese army began to attack our army in an all-round way in Shanghai, and the Yu Hanmou Department of Guangdong Province was ordered to send troops to Shanghai to participate in the Anti-Japanese War. The military department was formally established in September of 1932 and 1, but at that time, the army only governed two divisions. Before he left, Yu Hanmou sent Peng to take a teaching brigade under the command of Ye and transferred to the north at the same time.

In mid-September, 1937, all the troops concentrated in Guangzhou, took the Yuehan train north to Hankou, then got off at Zhenjiang, Jiangsu, and then took the Beijing-Shanghai train from Zhenjiang to Nanxiang Station near Shanghai. At that time, the Japanese army attacked Wusongkou Baoshan on a large scale, and the 66th Army immediately went to Liu Jiaxing to occupy the position and fight against the enemy. Due to the coastal area of Songhu Lake, it was shelled by a powerful enemy navy and fought with our dense team, causing heavy casualties. The Peng Teaching Brigade of the 66th Army was almost wiped out in a few rounds. Later, the remaining officers and men of the brigade were assigned to the 160 division to supplement, and the designation of the teaching brigade was cancelled. Soon, the army moved to Guangfu line to fight. 165438+ 10 this year, because of the right-wing war, we were attacked by the enemy and outflanked us, so we began to retreat across the board. After the enemy occupied Shanghai, they marched straight in and continued to attack Nanjing. [ 1]

The 66th Army fought with the enemy for a short time through Suzhou, Xicheng, Jiangyin and Tangshan, and then retreated to Nanjing City to launch a city defense war. Two divisions under the army merged into one brigade because of more than half of the casualties. 159 division took Lin Weichou as the brigade commander, 160 division took Yu as the brigade commander to participate in the Nanjing Yugoslav capital battle.

12 12 in the afternoon, the Guanghua Gate in Nanjing was breached by the enemy, and the morale of the army was shaken. Tang Shengzhi, commander of the guarding city, ordered the breakthrough. In addition to 159 division commander Tan Jia and Tang Shengzhi, the 66th Army crossed the river and passed Pukou by electric boat. Ye Zhao, commander of the army, led the whole army to break through the emergency exit and arrived in Ningguo, Anhui. However, some officers and men thought it was difficult to escape from the enemy's rear after crossing several lines of defense, so they left the team without authorization and tried to cross the river and cross Pukou. But because there are no boats along the river, these officers and men can only use door panels or Chinese fir strips to float across the river. Because the river is vast and the water is swift, there are few survivors. The troops who broke through the emergency gate returned to Hunan in 1938 65438+ 10 after several times of killing and circuitous smuggling, with heavy casualties.

Ye Zhao, the army commander, was also captured by the enemy. He pretended to be a cook, helped the enemy transport ammunition, then waited for an opportunity to escape, sneaked into a foreign concession in Shanghai, and then returned to Hong Kong by boat, entered Guangzhou, and transferred to Hunan for defense.

During July 1938, the 66th Army was ordered to be transferred to Nanchang, Jiangxi Province to participate in Nanxun Line operations, and fought fiercely with the enemy in De 'an, Lushan Foot and Wanjialing successively. After a supplement in the middle, the personnel of each division changed slightly. 159 division commander was promoted to deputy division commander, 1939 division commander Hua, 160 division commander Hua was transferred because of disagreement with Ye, and the deputy division commander was promoted to division commander.

However, the surviving commander was Tan Jiatiba as the deputy commander, and the deputy commander was promoted by 159 division commander Kelvin Chen, 1939 division commander and 159 division commander Chen Jisheng.

In the winter of 1939, the whole army was transferred to Liuzhou, Guangxi to participate in the first battle of southern Guangxi, except for Lin Wei 15 1 division headquarters. At that time, a regiment of 159 division was commanded by Du, the fifth army, and under the cover of artillery, it broke through the enemy line Kunlun Pass several times. Soon, the enemy mobilized troops from Nanning and prepared to cross the river from Yongchun to attack our left wing. The front command ordered Ye Zhao to lead the 66th Army to Yongchun for protection to stop the enemy's attempt. Ye Zhao misjudged that the enemy would not do so, but did not take action. When he found that the enemy had crossed the Yongchun River and advanced towards Binyang, Zhao was busy commanding two divisions of Kelvin Chen Department of the 66th Army (159 Division lacked temporary command 165438 Division) to intercept it. However, the enemy's main force has approached Binyang, and the situation in our rear is greatly threatened. At this time, the morale of the army was in a panic and the order was in chaos. The troops fled to Wuming and Xincheng successively, and were pursued by the enemy and attacked by enemy planes along the way, resulting in heavy losses.

After the fiasco of the Battle of Guinan, Chiang Kai-shek personally went to Guilin to hold a high-level military meeting. At the meeting, he announced that Ye Zhao had disobeyed orders, missed the opportunity, and was dismissed, detained and expelled. Kelvin Chen, the commander of the 66th Army, and Song Shitai, the division commander of 160, were dismissed for investigation. The titles of the 37th Army Headquarters and the 66th Army Headquarters were revoked. Later, the 159 and 160 divisions under the jurisdiction of the army were ordered to be transferred back to northern Guangdong and supervised by Yu Hanmou, commander of the Seventh Theater. A few months later, 159 division transferred to the 64th army, and 160 division transferred to the 65th army.
