    After crossing Queer Mountain, where "thousands of birds flew away and every trace of human beings disappeared", and arrived at Qamdo, the east gate of Tibet, the 45th Brigade and the 22nd Brigade divided into two groups. The 22nd Brigade followed the snow-covered road.  The Lancang River turned towards Leiwuqi and Sida, the northwest passes of Qamdo, to ensure that the retreat route of Qamdo Tibetan troops escaping to Lhasa would be cut off after the war broke out; while the 45th Brigade continued to advance through the valley snowfields towards Qamdo.

    The bad weather and rugged geographical environment concealed the movements of the Northeastern Army. The Tibetan troops, who only stared at the mountain roads and pass valley entrances, never expected that the Northeastern Army would climb over the snowy mountains and ice and touch their rear and flanks; but the long distance  The troops trekking on the ice and snow plateau also found themselves in a difficult situation, almost unable to move. Soldiers with frostbite, fatigue, and altitude sickness and lack of oxygen and fainting fell to the ground along the way. However, orders from the headquarters urging the troops to speed up the progress continued one after another.  And arrived.  "Report! The military department ordered that the dam must be reached within thirty hours."

    ¡°I understand, please reply to the military headquarters, we are determined to complete the mission.¡± Major General Jing Dewen, the brigade commander, said weakly.  Howling winds mixed with snowflakes as big as catkins whizzed and slapped on people's faces, hurting like a knife. Biting chills penetrated straight into the bones, and the chest felt like there was a big millstone pressing on it.  Suffocated.

    "Yes!" The ordering soldier raised his hands in a military salute and turned around.  Jing Dewen's nose suddenly felt sore and he almost shed tears: What kind of hands are those!  The palms of my hands were swollen like steamed buns, and each finger was as red and swollen as a carrot.  "Damn Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, I will hate you forever!" Jing Dewen gasped, cursing and moving forward with difficulty on a crutch.  He raised his eyes and looked ahead. The sky and the earth were filled with spotless white snow. Under the sunlight, the white flowers were dazzling, and the clouds and mist were shrouded. It was really like being in a fairyland.

    Jing Dewen looked at this scene in amazement. If it weren't for the war, this would really be a beautiful snow scene.  He blinked and saw a large piece of white slowly sliding down from the mountain peak, snow particles and mist powder rolling down noisily, and the snow-capped mountain in front of him seemed to be flattened.  Jing Dewen was stunned when suddenly, "Boom, boom, boom" a loud sound like thunder and suffocating cold air came rolling in. He suddenly realized it and hurriedly shouted at the top of his lungs: "Avalanche!  Brothers, there¡¯s an avalanche!¡±

    A snow wall that was one hundred long and one hundred wide and seven or eight meters thick let out a thunderous roar from the top of the cliff peak, rolled down rapidly, and splashed ice and snow mist into the sky dozens of feet high. The whole world seemed to be falling.  It was turned into a chaotic white mess.

    The 22nd Brigade suddenly neighed and scrambled. The avalanche rushing down like a herd of wild horses instantly buried hundreds of soldiers alive. The frightened officers, soldiers, mules and horses were in a mess on the narrow snowy road, fighting for the road.  , dozens of soldiers, mules and horses accidentally slipped and fell into the snow lake one after another, and immediately sank like stones.

    "Brother!" "Squad leader!" "Two Tigers!" The officers and soldiers shouted hoarsely and heart-piercingly, and the brothers who rushed out from the hail of bullets were now dead here without a burial place.  , the soldiers looked at the bottomless Lancang River and cried one after another. The miserable and sad scene at the scene was as tear-jerking as the cries of apes and cuckoos crying blood in Wuxia Gorge.  Colonel Li Xihao, the deputy brigade commander, reluctantly gathered his troops. After looking around, he found that the brigade commander Jing Dewen was missing.  Where did the brigadier go?  The officers and soldiers suddenly panicked. Deputy Brigadier Li, Chief of Staff Colonel Wan Zitian, and Deputy Chief of Staff Lieutenant Colonel Yu Le looked at each other, and they all saw horror and fear in each other's eyes.  The officers shouted: "Brigadier! Brigadier! Where are you?"

    The officers and soldiers of the whole brigade shouted in panic: "Brigadier! Brigade! Where are you?" Deputy Brigadier Li and Chief of Staff Wan looked at the cold river, and then at the thickly covered river.  On the snowy road, everyone burst into tears.  Deputy Chief of Staff Yu staggered to the snow and dug desperately with both hands. While digging, he burst into tears: "Brigadier Commander, you can't die here"

    "What are you crying about! I'm still alive!" From a snowdrift by the river, Jing Dewen's head, mottled with snowflakes and red from the cold, suddenly appeared. His military cap flew away and he trudged out with difficulty.  Struggling and crawling.  "The brigade commander is still alive!" The officers were overjoyed and stumbled towards him.  The guards pulled Jing Dewen out of the snow pit like a carrot.

    "It was really dangerous just now! Such a big snow-capped mountain suddenly fell down. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and hugged a stone in time" Jing Dewen, who had narrowly escaped death, was talking with lingering fear. Suddenly he felt something was wrong, and he wiped his face vigorously.  After that, his pupils suddenly widened and he said nervously: "Why can't I see anything! Why is it all white snow What's going on!?"

    Deputy Brigadier Li quickly held down the frightened Jing Dewen, looked carefully at his confused eyes, and comforted him.Looking forward to it!  I want to live and die with Qamdo City!  Tsewang Dorje said resolutely, "Fight back!"  Fight back hard!  "

    At this time, the gunfire in the city became more and more intensive, mortar shells were flying and roaring, and amid the firelight, a large number of Northeastern Army soldiers rushed into the city, shouting while advancing, and the Tibetan army defenses in various defense zones along the way collapsed one after another.  .  The 22nd Brigade, which occupied Leiwuqi and Sida, also moved westward, cooperating with the 45th Brigade to squeeze towards Qamdo like two hammers.

    At dawn, the east and west of Qamdo had been occupied by the Northeastern Army.  The officers and soldiers who entered the city strictly implemented the "Three Major Disciplines and Eight Points of Attention" and distributed highland barley noodles and medicine to Tibetan captives and Tibetan people to reduce the hostility of the Tibetans towards the Northeastern Army.  Some Tibetan soldiers in the city knelt down and prayed devoutly to the sky in a state of panic and confusion, and became prisoners of the Northeast Army in a daze.

    "Lord Governor We can't defeat the Han army at all For the lives and property of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and compatriots in the city, let's negotiate peace with the Han army" In the Qamdo Governor's Mansion, seeing that the situation was getting more and more critical, Kelsang Wangdui tried hard to persuade  Written by Tsewang Dorje.

    "No! I would rather die than surrender!" Ciwang Dorje said stubbornly, scratching his neck.

    "Gelsang Wangdui! You coward who is greedy for life and afraid of death! How could you" Chu Gawu screamed and accused him. Before he finished speaking, "Boom!" In the darkness of the sky, lightning, flint, and shrapnel flew everywhere, and a shot from the Northeast Army  The 80mm mortar shells flew into the Governor's Mansion and exploded suddenly. Chu Gawu and several guards who were standing and talking were blown to pieces on the spot.  The rest of the people were immediately frightened, and Kelsang Wangdui's eyes turned red. He suddenly stood up and said: "Your Majesty the Governor! We can't resist any longer! Someone, please 'invite' the Governor down!"

    "Kesang Wangdui! What are you doing? You are rebelling!" As Tsewang Dorje screamed angrily, two soldiers of Kelsang Wangdui pushed him down one on the left and the other on the right.  "Send representatives immediately to contact the Han army so that the war can be extinguished as soon as possible." Gesang Wangdui muttered exhaustedly.

    At 12:00 noon, the officers and soldiers of the leading force of the 22nd Brigade marching between Qamdo and Erluo Bridge were surprised to find Tibetan troops and Tibetan officials waving more than ten snow-white hadas on the mountainside. The deputy chief of staff led the team.  Lieutenant Colonel Yu Le observed carefully with a telescope and decisively ordered his subordinates not to fire.  There was a Chinese voice from Zangbana, the clerk of Qamdo Governor's Palace. He had negotiated with the Northeastern Army many times and was already an old friend of the Northeastern Army: "Chief of the Han Army, please don't shoot! We are the negotiators of the Tibetan Army."  .¡±

    Lieutenant Colonel Yu immediately ordered his subordinates to go up to meet him. Three representatives of the Tibetan army, including Zangbana, came over. Zangbana bowed and introduced: "This is the monk Luosang Juedian, and this is the lay official Ji."  Qia Zhaxi Dorje. I was sent by Master Kelsang Wangdui to contact you. We want to see your senior official."

    Lieutenant Colonel Yu said in surprise: "Isn't your governor Tsewang Dorje?"

    "Tsewang Dorje has been arrested by Lord Kelsang Wangdui because he refused to surrender. Now our commander is Lord Kelsang Wangdui." Zangbana explained.

    Brigadier Jing Dewen arrived quickly. After understanding the meaning of the three Zangbana people, he immediately led the guard platoon into the city with Deputy Chief of Staff Yu to meet with Bende Gege Sang Wangdui, Bang Darega, and Lecan Yuga.  , Luosang Juedian and more than ten military officials above fourth grade.  Jing Dewen explained to them the current situation and the policies of the Northeastern Army, and advised the Tibetan troops to lay down their arms and follow the path of unity and reunification of all ethnic groups in the motherland.  After hearing this, Kelsang Wangdui said sincerely: "Actually, none of us are willing to fight with the Han people. We all know the principle of Chinese-Tibetan unity. This war is all caused by Regent Daza Ngawangson." He asked again.  Said: "After surrender, can I and the officials here be exempted from handing over the self-defense pistols?"

    Jing Dewen thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Absolutely."

    An hour later, the negotiations ended, and all the remaining 3,600 Tibetan troops in Qamdo City handed over their weapons at the designated locations and surrendered to the Northeastern Army.  The Northeastern Army successfully occupied the east gate of Tibet, and its troops pointed directly at the center of Tibet - Lhasa.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
