Liberate Fushun
by Lin Keke
About This Novel
On October 31, 1948, the 10th Independent Division of the Northeast Field Army rushed into Fushun at the end of the Liaoshen Campaign. One regiment of the 207th Division of the Kuomintang Youth Army that defended the enemy abandoned the city and fled, and the People's Liberation Army took over the "coal capital" without bloodshed. Asia's largest open-pit coal mine, special steel plant and power plant were completely taken over, and more than 2,000 machine tools and 40 locomotives were seized. This battle cut off the energy lifeline of the national army in Shenyang, and Shenyang was liberated three hours later (14:00 on the same day). The zero-loss transfer of Fushun's industrial system provided core support for ordnance production in the late stages of the Liberation War and laid the foundation for New China's heavy industry.
