We have heard of Qingshizui Victory in historical course.
Today we came to the battle field, where the stories told
by our teacher were recalled.
After arriving at the foot of Liupan Mountain, the vanguard
reported to Chairman Mao that the enemy-KMT's cavalry were
resting at Qingshizui and their horses were tied to trees.
Mao immediately commanded three teams of Red Army's soldiers
to attack the enemy surprisingly. As a result, the enemy cavalry
were alarmed and confused. Some were shot while just riding
on the horse; and some were caught before riding on the horse.
At last, 200 enemy cavalries actively surrendered, more than
one hundred horses and many other military objects were captured
by the Red Army. This battle just lasted for half an hour.
After the battle, Chairman Mao distributed these horses to
Linbiao and asked him to form the Red Army's first cavalry
regiment.
