随着抗战形势的发展,自1938年10月武汉失陷后,敌我军事态势进入相持阶段。当年冬,傅作义就任第八战区副司令长官兼绥远省主席。1940年3月,为配合全国对日军发动的攻势,傅作义命令所属部队攻取五原县城。当时我们二人分别担任晋绥军所属之五(原)临(河)警备旅第一团团长和第二团? With the development of the anti-Japanese war situation, since the fall of Wuhan in October 1938, the military posture between the enemy and ourselves has entered a phase of stalemate. In the winter, Fu Zuoyi became the eighth theater deputy commander and chairman of Suiyuan. In March 1940, to tie in with the nationwide offensive against the Japanese army, Fu Zuoyi ordered his troops to attack the Wuyuan county. At that time, the two of us served as the head of the first regiment and the second regiment of the five (original) Pro (river) police brigades affiliated to Jinsui Suijun.
