1939年12月初,我团奉上级指示,号召以连为单位开展“活捉鬼子,迎接新年”的比赛活动。当时,我连到敌后一年多时间,消灭过不少日军,但就是没抓过活鬼子。有几次活捉了鬼子哨兵,都因鬼子拼命挣扎,惊动了守在炮楼的日军,只好就地击毙。可见,抓活鬼子可不是一件容易的事哩! In early December 1939, our regiment was instructed by superiors to call for the company to carry out the competition “Capture the Devils and Greet the New Year”. At that time, I even connected to the enemy’s enemy for more than a year and eliminated many Japanese troops, but I did not grasp the living devils. Several times captured the devil sentinel, all desperate struggle because of the devil, alerted the Japanese army kept in the turret, had killed on the spot. Visible, grasping live devils is not an easy thing miles!
