Originally the unit was the 111th Division of the North-East Army which fought against the Japanese during the
Second Sino-Japanese War, it was later transferred to the
Eighth Route Army's Shandong Military Region, and then again to the North East People's Volunteer Army; the unit was redesignated the 114th on transfer to the
38th Army. As the 114th, under the 38th Army, the division fought as part of the
People's Volunteer Army (Chinese People's Volunteers (CPV) or Chinese Communist Forces (CCF)) during the
Korean War with a standard strength of approximately 10,000 men. At that time it consisted of the
340th,
341st, and
342nd Regiments. It fought the
Turkish Brigade at the
Battle of Wawon, November 27–29, 1950, and the ROK
9th Infantry Division (South Korea) at the
Battle of White Horse Hill in October 1952. The formation remained for many years with the
38th Group Army in the
Shenyang Military Region, as the 114th Mechanized Infantry Division. In 1996, as part of the reform of the People's Liberation Army in the 1990s the 114th (together with 13 other divisions, and some 500,000 personnel) was transferred to the
People's Armed Police (PAP), becoming the
114th Armed Police Division,
unit number 8640, stationed in
Dingzhou,
Baoding. The 114th was chosen to represent the PAP during the
2015 China Victory Day Parade. After the 2017 reform, the division was divided into two detachments (regiment-sized): the
5th Mobile Detachment (garrison Dingzhou, Hebei) and the
6th Mobile Detachment (garrison Baoding, Hebei) under the PAP
1st Mobile Contingent. ==Units(1996)==
