Liu Guangtong's Personal Anecdote
General Liu Guangtong is the only general in the whole army who doesn't have to salute when he sees Chairman Mao. This privilege was given by Premier Zhou. During the war, he was seriously injured many times, and his right hand only had his thumb and forefinger. When Premier Zhou received the British model "Tibet 4 19 troops", Mr. Liu's hero saluted the Prime Minister. Why does he raise his right hand with only two fingers? The Prime Minister paid tribute to Liu and granted him the privilege on the spot: you don't have to salute when you see leaders at any level in the future! That's great, right? Only he has the courage and temper to be angry and angry in this way at the war review meeting! Thank you, General Liu Guangtong, for being unfair to 149. ...

At that time, when the staff of the 39th Division of 13 Army handed over the protected area to the 446th Regiment, they mistakenly marked the area of "No.4 Bridge" as a control area on the map, saying that two companies of the 39th Division had been stationed here for the 446th Regiment to receive ... (Some veterans said that 13 Army lied at that time.

So that the 446th Regiment of 149 Division was ambushed by the Vietnamese army as soon as it went up to defend. Although the 2nd Battalion of the 446th Regiment was calm and stable under the command of Ke Zhixiang, after identifying the enemy's situation, it quickly organized forces to ambush and evolved into a classic "No.4 Bridge Counter-ambush War", which completely reversed the passive situation and also played the fighting heroes of the 446th Regiment, Qi Kegao and Jia Duo (martyrs). Many of them were injured and concentrated on the roadside waiting for treatment, because the wounds were wrapped in white tape and white bandage, and the targets were conspicuous, but they were gloriously sacrificed by the refocusing shooting of the latent Vietnamese heavy machine guns and flat guns. The scene is very tragic. By the way, personal anecdote: General Wang Xixin, commander of the Long Live Army, was the fifth squad leader of the 2nd Battalion Artillery Company of the 446th Regiment, and also participated in the ambush and ambush. His artillery company suffered heavy casualties, leaving only more than 30 people.

As soon as the Vietnam War ended in 1979, all the troops in the western theater retreated successfully. The Kunming Military Region held a war review meeting. At the meeting, some comrades of 13 Army summarized the contributions of "Three Bridges and Four Bridges" after the war as their own, completely ignoring the fact that 149 Division 446th Regiment Bridge was ambushed by Vietnamese troops and suffered heavy casualties, saying that "Three Bridges and Four Bridges were shot down by them, and 149 Division didn't hold it ..."

As soon as the comrades in the field 13 troops concluded, General Liu Guangtong was indignant and stood on the table and slapped him. He immediately pulled out his pistol and fired into the air. He was furious: "If you do this, I won't be the deputy commander!" " All the participants were shocked ... because General Liu Guangtong, the deputy commander of the 50 th Army, was present in the battle. He went down to 149 division to supervise the war and took part in the command. Of course, he knew what had happened.
