Their main force directly entered Luodian, cutting off the connection between Beijing and Shanghai Road and breaking through the central area. Luodian became the center of the war.
In mid-August, 20 18 Army 67 Division 0 Brigade
In late August, the Japanese army mobilized 58 transport ships, carrying the third, eleventh and eighth divisions of the Japanese army. Under the cover of sea fire, it landed in Changhua Bang, Wusong and Lion Forest successively. At this time, the national government's military alert force had only one division. The situation was urgent, and the High Command of the National Government urgently dispatched 18 Army reinforcements 15 Army to fight the invading enemy. The 18 Army has four divisions, namely 1 1, 14, 67, 98, and the Cai Bingyan 20 1 Brigade belongs to the 67th Division. 18 army arrived at Songhu front, 1 1 division guarded Shizilin and Chuanjiang Shakou line, 67th division guarded Shakou to assembly area, and 98th division guarded Wusong. After the Japanese reinforcements landed, the 18th Army blocked all departments along the Yangtze River. With the cooperation of powerful aircraft, artillery and other advanced equipment, the Japanese army landed step by step, and the officers and men of the 20 1 Brigade of the 67th Division were brave and solemn.
Luodian is located at the junction of Wusong and Jiading, with Baoshan in the north and Dachang and Zhabei in the south. This is the key point to enter the city. The Japanese army landed in the first quarter, attacked Luodian with all their strength, stationed troops in Luodian, and China army. Chiang Kai-shek, who had previously occupied Luodian Town, heard that the reinforcements of the 18th Army had been dispatched urgently to annihilate the landing enemy. Due to the ferocity of the Japanese army, instead of stopping the Japanese from landing in China, Luodian was lost. On the evening of August 25th, Chiang Kai-shek ordered Luo, commander of the18th Army, "Luo Dian must be recovered tonight. After occupying Luodian, field fortifications were built near Luodian, and strongholds were built in Shuliqiao, Nanchanggou and Feng Jia Village. " After Luo took over, he was transferred from Liuhe to Luodian to cooperate with the Eleventh Division to recover Luodian. In this way, the epic of the battle of Luodian was unveiled.
After the National Army 1 1 Division and the 67th Division arrived, they launched a fierce counterattack against the enemy of Luodian. The Japanese army resisted tenaciously by virtue of its superiority in sea and air, and the morale of China's army was high. After many hand-to-hand combat, Luodian was finally recaptured. Cai Bingyan, the brigade commander of the 20 1 brigade of the 67th Division, predicted that the Japanese army would not give up its attack on Luodian, and more cruel fighting was yet to come. He personally went to the forward position on the west side of Luodian, made careful protection, and issued the military order of "sitting flat", that is, in a battle, if the officer does not retreat, he will kill the soldier first, and if the soldier does not retreat, he will kill the officer first. He asked the officers and men to contact each other, advance and retreat together, and express the determination of the whole brigade to live and die together. After Luodian was recovered, the main task of the 20 1 Brigade was to stick to the west side of Luodian Town and attack the invading enemy head-on. Cai Bingyan will belong to the ministries of the 4 10 and 402 regiments, and hide in cotton fields earlier and earlier. The Japanese army launched a large-scale attack. The Japanese army entered the barrage, and the 40 1 regiment fired with all its strength, and the Japanese army retreated wearily. After each battle, Cai Bingyan should rearm according to the actual situation on the battlefield to meet the next battle. The Japanese army invaded several times, but they were heroically repelled by the officers and men of the 20 1 Brigade. After the Japanese vanguard troops were driven out of Luodian, the Japanese strategy of capturing Luodian remained firm. The first batch of reinforcements of more than 3,000 people, under the cover of planes and warships, quickly headed for Luodian. 20 1 brigade resisted tenaciously, but could not resist the fierce fire of the Japanese army. The Japanese army occupied the frontier positions such as Lujiacun and Shenzhai. The 20 1 Brigade of the 67th Division was ordered to evacuate to the south of Luodian Town, and Cai Bingyan issued a new operational order: 40 1 regiment stood on the right side of the defense line, with the first battalion on the right, the second battalion in the middle and the third battalion on the left; The 402nd Regiment stood on the left side of the defense line, ready to cooperate. It was already 0: 02 when the deployment was completed. The soldiers built fortifications, rested for a while, and prepared to fight at dawn. However, Cai Bingyan failed to rest and think about the enemy's plans. He suddenly ordered, "Send a platoon of troops to ambush in front of the position!" After arranging the ambush task, he entered the mask road and fell asleep on the door panel. After a while, he was awakened by the sound of gunfire and grenades in the distance. Cai Bingyan foresaw that the ambush platoon had met the Japanese. Before he could form a new battle plan, he ambushed the platoon leader and threw himself into the mask like a fly: "Report to the brigade commander that about two enemy troops came to attack at night. I ordered the whole platoon to hide and keep quiet. When the enemy was 50 meters away from me, I ordered the battle. A total of more than 20 grenades were thrown at the enemy, and all the light and heavy weapons were fired together. Thanks for Cai's successful ambush. He raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It's already half past three. He refused to rest, spread the captured map on the table and examined it carefully. Then he sent a messenger to report the map to the headquarters and arranged a new battle. In the Battle of Luodian, the 67th Division first defended the mud wall on the west side of Luodian, and then retreated south to the south of Luodian Town, and always shouldered the defensive task of the forward position of Luodian. Its 20 1 brigade is the main battle brigade of the 67th Division, fighting in the hardest and fiercest places like a sword.
On August 26th, the 67th Division was ordered to recapture Lujia Village occupied by the Japanese army. In the early morning, Cai ordered the 402nd Regiment to be the main attack and the 40 1 Regiment to be the left wing, heading for Lujia Village occupied by the Japanese army. At midnight, the stars shone, and the officers and men of the 402nd Regiment were in high spirits and marched quietly under the starlight. Suddenly, the striker of the 402nd Regiment met the enemy. After fierce fighting, the vanguard troops completely occupied the Japanese outpost, and the main force of the 402 nd regiment continued to advance to Lujiacun. Just as the 20 1 brigade launched an attack on the enemy, the second batch of Japanese reinforcements came. The 402nd Regiment fought fiercely with the Japanese main force. Suddenly, the gunfire was deafening, and the officers and men of China army fought for their country. The two armies fought several hand-to-hand battles, and the battle for positions became extremely fierce. At this time, Cai ordered the officers and men of the whole brigade to stick to their posts and swear to the death. Li, head of the 42nd Regiment, led the whole regiment in a bloody battle with the enemy. In the battle, battalion commander Zhang died at the front. In order to consolidate his position, Colonel Li personally commanded the battle on the line of fire. Cai calmly responded at the command post and ordered the 40 1 regiment to move quickly to the left to reinforce the 402 regiment. At this moment, I suddenly received a report: Colonel Li was killed in the front line, and the company commander of the 402nd regiment suffered heavy casualties, and the situation was critical. Cai Bingyan has a heavy heart. In order to save the situation, he calmly issued several orders in succession. In order to save the situation, Cai Bingyan decided to push the brigade command post forward 100 meters and set it behind the skirmisher line. Finally, he issued such an order: "The soldiers of this brigade swear to die together with the position. The advanced gave birth, and the backward died, one after another! " He has made up his mind to defend his position to the death and fight the enemy to the end. When the 402nd Regiment fought fiercely with the Japanese, the 40 1 Regiment on the left was blocked and outflanked by the Japanese after receiving reinforcements. 40 1 regiment fought fiercely with the enemy, and both sides fought fiercely. The war situation is getting more and more severe. Cai Bingyan is well aware of the current war situation: the enemy is strong and we are weak, and the strong enemy is unstoppable. However, the importance of the battle of Luodian in the whole battlefield of Songhu is self-evident. For Luodian, for the Battle of Shanghai and Shanghai, and for the Chinese nation, he is prepared to fight to the death with the Japanese army.
On the afternoon of August 26th, Cai Bingyan walked out of the command post, urgently called the spy platoon around him, personally led the only guard force around him, and walked all the way through the bomb room of the enemy plane to reach the position of 40 1 regiment. At that time, most battalions of the 40 1 regiment suffered more than half of the casualties, and only the third battalion was relatively intact. The officers and men of the 3rd Battalion in Cai Bingyan were ordered to launch a counterattack against the Japanese army. When the soldiers saw Cai Chong in front, their morale was greatly boosted. The enthusiasm of officers and men to devote themselves to the country is hotter than the sun in August. Just as the stormtroopers were advancing, Cai Bingyan was shot and the bullet went through his chest. General Cai fell, but with a wave of his right hand, he shouted, "Forward! Go forward. "
After Cai Bingyan's death, the National Government posthumously awarded him the rank of Lieutenant General. 1985, Anhui provincial people's government approved him as a revolutionary martyr, and Hefei municipal people's government rebuilt him as a martyr.
