1939年11月7日,八路军与日军在河北省黄土岭展开了激烈的战斗。晋察冀军区第一团团长陈正湘透过望远镜看到不远处的一座院子里满是日军军官,他判断这里是敌人的指挥所。陈正湘马上命令炮兵连对敌人指挥所进行射击,当炮弹在院子内爆炸时,横飞的弹片打倒了许多日军官兵。看到炮弹命中目标,陈正湘兴奋不已,但是他并不知道其中有一名日军中将已死。 November 7, 1939, the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army in Loess Ridge in Hebei Province launched a fierce battle. Chen Zhengxiang, head of the first regiment of the Jin-Cha-Ji military region, saw through the telescope a Japanese army officer not far from a yard, where he judged it to be the enemy’s command post. Chen Zhengxiang immediately ordered the artillery units to even shoot at the enemy command post. When the shells exploded in the yard, the cross-purpose shrapnel knocked down many Japanese officers and soldiers. Chen Zhengxiang was so excited when he saw that the shell hit the target, but he did not know that one of the Japanese troops was dead.
