During the Agrarian Revolution, there was a shadowy young armed force, the Young Pioneers of the Red Army, on the Shaanxi-Gansu Loess Plateau. Under the leadership of the Party, they followed the Red Army in fighting local tyrants, distributing food, mobilizing the masses and destroying the White Army, and created a series of epic heroic deeds.
193 1 in winter, a snowy day, Liu Zhidan led a Red Army guerrilla to March in the Qiaoshan area at the junction of Shaanxi and Gansu. It has been snowing for several days, and the mountains and rivers are white. Liu Zhidan was leading the team down the mountain when he suddenly found two children lying in the snow. He hurriedly ran over and touched it, then squatted on a child's chest to listen, and then waved back and said, "Help!" " "Say that finish, he untied the old sheepskin coat and warmed a frozen child in his arms.
After the rescue of Liu Zhidan and guerrillas, the two children woke up. Liu Zhidan asked, just know that chubby boy named Wang Youfu, 15 years old, is the little shepherd of the landlord's house. The short, dark boy named Zhao Yujie is a little beggar, because he likes to jump. His nickname is flea. The two of them couldn't stand the oppression and exploitation of the landlords, so they took half a revolutionary leaflet and went to the mountains to find the poor team. Due to hunger and cold, the ramp slipped and rolled down the hillside, almost freezing to death. Fortunately, I met the team of the Red Army.
From then on, Wang Youfu and Flea followed the Red Army guerrillas. Later, a dozen poor children came to the guerrillas one after another. Most of them are thirteen or fourteen years old, and the youngest pillar is only 1 1 year old. Comrade Liu Zhidan and Comrade Xie Zichang saw that they were young, physically exhausted, and the guerrillas had to March frequently, and their lives were too hard, so they advised them to go back. They refused to work and insisted on becoming guerrillas.
The guerrillas are ready to go. Suddenly, the password of "attention" came from the other end of the phone. Wang Youfu and his friends stood at the end of the line, feet together, chest out, staring proudly ahead. Wang Youfu ran to Liu Zhidan to stand at attention and salute, and loudly reported: "There should be 1 1 person in the doll class, but there is actually 1 1 person, and there is no shortage!" Liu Zhidan looked at these lovely children, exchanged glances with Xie Zichang and said gently, "Well, let's discuss it with the headquarters and see if we can run a doll class!"
The next day, the doll class was formally established, with Wang Youfu as the monitor. The General Command also sent an instructor-Bian Derong (he was a miner from Wang Jiao Village, Yao County, Shaanxi Province, and later served as the company commander of Shaanxi-Gansu Border Cavalry, who died in the battle of 1936). Border instructors lead the doll class to practice every day and teach them to sing and tell stories, which is very popular with children.
One night, the troops were stationed in Ai Haowa. The doll class lives in a small kiln branch two miles away from the village. The children were sleeping. Suddenly, there was a fierce gunshot from Artemisia argyi. Wang Youfu skid up, wake up friends, everyone mentioned pony gun, spear, broadsword, small wooden gun, quickly ran out of the village, climbed a donkey beam in the northwest. When I climbed to the top of the high cliff, I found that the village not far from the cliff was filled with smoke, and the dark enemy was attacking the village under the cover of machine guns. Guerrillas are in great danger.
The children are very anxious. Suddenly, they found a group of enemies in a small ditch under the cliff. Wang Youfu immediately ordered: "Strike hard!" It turns out that this is the team of Zhang Tingzhi, a famous local tyrant in northern Shaanxi. Then, bullets, grenades, stones, commanding, fly to the enemy's head. The enemy under the cliff never imagined that the guerrillas would attack from behind at the top of the cliff. As a result, the enemy fell and fled, and the command suddenly failed.
The guerrillas trapped in the village took advantage of the enemy's panic, stormed, turned defeat into victory and drove the enemy away. Only after the battle did the guerrillas know that it was the doll class that made a surprise attack, destroyed the enemy camp and solved the encirclement. Everyone praises them for their wit, courage and small ambition!
On February 22nd, 1932, at Sanquanyuan, Zhengning County, Gansu Province, a flag-raising ceremony was held for the Shaanxi-Gansu guerrilla detachment of the Chinese Red Army of Workers and Peasants. At the meeting, Xie Zichang, commander-in-chief of the guerrillas, announced that the doll class was renamed the Young Pioneers of the Red Army. Liu Zhidan presented a banner embroidered with the words "Young Pioneers of Shaanxi-Gansu Guerrilla Detachment of the Chinese Workers and Peasants Red Army" to Wang Youfu, the captain of the Young Pioneers. After the establishment of the Young Pioneers of the Red Army, together with the Red Army guerrillas, they fought local tyrants, distributed food, studied culture and military affairs, publicized the revolution and won several battles. Young Pioneers have gradually become soldiers who can fight, stand guard and do mass work.
On the second day of the first lunar month, the young pioneers decided to visit the castle of the rich man-Hegu God. Just after the sun came out, on the way to Hegu God in Yao County, a group of young people dressed up to pay New Year's greetings came: fleas took a rhubarb dog and played while walking; Seven stones, wearing student hats, black uniforms and carrying a Ma Touqin box, walked behind fleas; Yu Mianwa dressed up as a new wife and rode on Huang Ma; Wang Youfu installed a handyman to lead the horse; Bian Derong walked behind with a pipe in his hand. In front of the city gate, the security guards check the pedestrians and ignore the families who come to visit the New Year. The flea swaggered up to the sentry, tripped him with his legs, and was stabbed by Bian Derong and Wang Youfu. As a result, the sentry died. The guerrillas lying in ambush immediately rushed into the city and cleaned up the enemy soldiers and local tyrants in the city cleanly.
On another occasion, the Young Pioneers retreated and hid according to Liu Zhidan's orders. The young pioneers ran 100 miles, hungry and thirsty, and were exhausted. It was dark, and Wang Youfu led the Young Pioneers into the village to have a rest. In old Sunman's home, everyone snores like thunder as soon as they sit down. Suddenly, the sentry came to report that the enemy had surrounded the village. Wang Youfu is busy waking up the players and organizing a breakthrough. The enemy blocked the door with machine guns and dense bullets went straight into the kiln. The young pioneers threw several grenades, killing most of the enemy, and the rest retreated.
The enemy threw two grenades from the chimney and the heatable adobe sleeping platform collapsed. Old Sunman brought a large roll of wool felt to block the broken chimney and said, "Quick, water the felt and cultivate the soil." The team members reinforced two chimneys according to law. The enemy rushed into the kiln again. The players used long guns, bayonets and grenades to destroy the enemy again and again. After repelling the enemy's eighth charge, the bullets were running out. The Grenade is almost finished. The young pioneers are ready to make a final struggle with the enemy. Uncle Sun took Wang Youfu by the hand and said, "No, son, there are so many enemies. How can you dolls rush out?" I think of a way: there is a cellar under the cellar. There is a tunnel more than two miles long in the ditch, which goes straight to the back ditch. This was played when I was a bandit in my early years. You get out of here. "Say that finish, the old man and Fu You spoke and asked the players to hurry down. Wang Youfu led the Young Pioneers into the ditch, through the tunnel, to Hougou, up the slope and left the village.
The enemy seized Lao Sunman and asked where the Young Pioneers of the Red Army had gone. Sun Laohan said that when he saw with his own eyes that the two sides were fighting fiercely, suddenly there was a whirlwind and all the dolls in the kiln were gone! "That's magic, how can you catch it? You didn't listen to people; Depth Charge, a whirlwind, came without a trace and went without a trace? Say hit your nose, not your eyes, how can you win the magic hero group by relying on you mortals? " Say great. Since then, the Young Pioneers of the Red Army have been called "whirlwind" and "magic soldiers".
With the development of the revolutionary situation, the Red Army guerrillas expanded rapidly, and the Red 26 Army and the Red 27 Army were formed successively. There are several regiments under each army, and each regiment has a young pioneer or pioneer company. By the autumn of 1935, the Young Pioneers of the Red Army had grown to 200 to 300, becoming an active fighting force in the Red Army.
1935, 10, the Central Red Army reached northern Shaanxi on the Long March. Northern Shaanxi Red Army 15 Army (including Red 25 Army, Red 26 Army and Red 27 Army) cooperated with the Central Red Army and won a great victory in Zhiluo Town. The battle in Zhiluo Town was extremely fierce. The Red Army pounced on the enemy and was determined to capture Zhiluo town. The enemy blocked the Red Army's advance with fierce firepower and dense machine gun bullets, and many Red Army soldiers were shot and killed.
There are 12 young pioneers on the mountain ridge who can see clearly and cry. Seeing that the northwest wind was blowing hard, captain Zhu Xiao came up with an idea to let the players prepare some wheat soil, wrap it in dry food bags and clothes, bypass the mountains and pounce on the enemy's machine gun positions. They unexpectedly blew up three enemy machine guns with grenades. Small pillars command the players to be condescending and scatter fine flour soil into the air. The northwest wind blew the dust like fog, making the enemy invisible and unable to shoot. The young pioneers took the opportunity to rush into the machine gun position and throw grenades for a while, which made the enemy's machine gun position in chaos. The Red Army took the opportunity to attack the ridge and pulled out the enemy's machine gun position. However, in the battle, Wang Ya, Zhu Xiao and other 12 young pioneers were captured by the enemy.
The enemy took 12 little soldier to the division for interrogation. A white army officer, bright saber, pointed to a small pillar and asked, "What do you do?"
"Do the revolution and overthrow the reactionaries!"
"What's your name?"
"My name is Red Army soldier, and my name is Young Pioneers!"
The White Army officer asked again, "How many Red Army troops are there around us? Say it quickly! "
"I am a propagandist of the Red Army. I can only say that you give me a bamboo board. " Said the little pillar.
White army officers don't understand bamboo boards, so they have to promise to hit the barrel with bayonets and let Zhu Xiao say Allegro.
The little pillar said, "Eye of the owl, don't look back yet. You can't see the Red Army surrounding you. Covering the northwest and Jiangnan, the number is tens of millions. ……"
The owl was mad and ordered the soldiers to prepare instruments of torture in the next room. Small pillar is not afraid of danger, continue to talk about Allegro. Other 1 1 Young Pioneers also sang his songs together:
"Comrades, March quickly, and the red sun is just ahead. Young Pioneers are really brave, not afraid of punishment, not afraid of beheading, and always follow the * * * production party, go forward, go forward! ……"
Dozens of frustrated enemies poured in and pushed 12 Young Pioneers into the torture room. For several days, the enemy used all kinds of torture on these 12 little soldiers: flogging, handcuffing, pressing barbells, sitting on tiger benches, holding sticks, nailing fingers with bamboo sticks, and burning them with an iron ... They fainted again and again and were awakened by cold water again and again, but no one surrendered or defected, and no one revealed the secrets of the Red Army to the enemy. Hate and fear, the enemy beat these 12 brave and unyielding little soldiers with sticks and hacked with sabers. ...
In this way, 12 Young Pioneers were brutally killed by the enemy. People call them 12 little heroes.
Late the next night, Wang Youfu, a young pioneer, led the team of 18 young pioneers to gallop away to Zhiluo town. Armed with submachine guns, they fired at the enemy from all directions. As the enemy of the "encirclement and suppression" guerrillas, they were attacked between Scylla and Charybdis, thinking that the main force of the Red Army had come to destroy them again and fled with their tails between their legs.
After the zhiluo war, the young pioneers were reorganized. More than 300 young pioneers of the Red Army were organized into three companies with fewer companies and one company with fewer companies. Soon, the heroic young pioneers, holding high the red flag and singing "Young Pioneers' Anti-Japanese Song", marched triumphantly to the anti-Japanese battlefield.
