1April, 928, Zhu De and Chen Yi led the uprising team from southern Hunan to Longshi, the Jinggangshan revolutionary base, and joined forces with the Revolutionary Army of Workers and Peasants led by Mao Zedong to form the 4th Army of the Revolutionary Army of Workers and Peasants (later renamed the 4th Army of the Chinese Red Army of Workers and Peasants), with Mao Zedong as the party representative and Zhu De as the commander.
Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base is located in the middle of Luo Xiao Mountain at the junction of Hunan and Jiangxi provinces. Five hundred miles around are high mountains, and the terrain is very dangerous. 1928165438+1In mid-October, the Red Army assembled in Ninggang, Xincheng and Gucheng for winter training.
Due to the tight blockade of the enemy forces in Hunan and Jiangxi provinces, the Jinggangshan base area almost cut off all trade with the Kuomintang-ruled areas, and the life of the military and civilians in the base area was very difficult. The required salt, cotton, cloth, medicinal materials and grain are extremely scarce, and many difficulties are encountered in raising funds.
In addition to meals, officers and men of the Red Army have to pay 50 cents a day for meals. Three meals a day are mostly brown rice, pumpkin soup and sometimes wild vegetables. Winter has arrived, and the soldiers are still wearing light clothes.
In order to solve the immediate problem of eating and storing food, the Red Fourth Front Army Command launched a campaign to pick food down the mountain. Most of these grains were shipped from Dalong, Ninggang. Dalong's grain is concentrated in Longshi, the ancient city and other places.
Zhu De often goes with the team to pick grain, and travels 50 kilometers a day. It is very difficult to go up and down the mountain empty-handed. But his two baskets are full every time, and they walk steadily and neatly. Young and strong boys are often left far away by him.
The soldiers admire Zhu from the heart, but they love him dearly. People over 40 years old are fighting for the revolution, and they have to climb mountains and mountains to pick up food. What if they are exhausted? As soon as everyone discussed it, they hid his shoulder pole.
Zhu De is worried because he doesn't have a pole. He asked the guards to buy a bamboo with a thick bowl and send it to his hometown, and started carrying a pole overnight.
In the moonlight, he skillfully broke, cut, scraped and sawed bamboo, and soon made half a yellow and white bamboo into a pole. In order to prevent the soldier from hiding his shoulder pole again, the three characters "Zhu" are engraved on it.
The next day, Samsung did not fall, and the grain-picking team set off again. Zhu De is still walking among the soldiers. Everyone was surprised to see that he had a new pole, and his reverence added a little more energy. From then on, the story of Zhu De's shoulder pole spread.
In order to forever commemorate Zhu De's spirit of hard struggle, Jinggangshan soldiers and civilians specially composed a song to praise him: "Zhu De picks the valley and goes to the depression, and the grain is absolutely reliable. Qi Xin made concerted efforts to smash the enemy's "encirclement and suppression".
2. "Eight women throw themselves into the river"
During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression (1938+00), eight female officers and men of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Coalition headed by Leng Yun, led by the instructor Leng Yun, launched a fierce battle with the Japanese puppet troops.
They took the initiative to attract the fire of the Japanese and puppet troops, so that the main force of the troops quickly got rid of the enemy's attacks, but they were besieged by the enemy. In desperation, they refused to surrender in the face of the Japanese Puppet, destroyed their guns, and waded into the Wushun River arm in arm, shouting:
"Down with Japanese imperialism!" Singing the international song "Slaves Get Up", he collectively sank into the river and died bravely for his country, which showed the heroic spirit of the Chinese nation in fighting the enemy to the end and was widely praised by the people.
They are Leng Yun, instructor of the women's regiment of the 5th Army of the 2nd Route Army, Hu Xiuzhi and Yang, squad leaders, soldiers, Huang Guiqing and He, and Anshun Fu, director of the garment factory. Leng Yun, the oldest of them, is 23 years old, and Wang Huimin, the youngest, is only 13 years old.
3. Five Strong Men of Langya Mountain
194 1 year, the Japanese invaders continued to "mop up" the anti-Japanese base areas in Langya Mountain area of Yixian County, Hebei Province, resulting in many terrible tragedies such as Tiangang and Dongloushan, in an attempt to "nibble" our anti-Japanese base areas with the brutal "three light" policy. ? [6]?
194 1 On September 23rd, the Japanese army marched into Yixian in three ways in an attempt to surround the first division of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region under the command of Commander Yang Chengwu.
On 24th, 3,500 Japanese puppet troops suddenly surrounded the Langya Mountain area, surrounded the guerrillas in Qiu Weituan, Yixian, Dingxing, Xu Shui, Mancheng and other counties and more than 2,000 people around them. The situation is very serious.
Colonel Qiu Wei quickly reported the situation to Commander Yang Chengwu. In order to rescue the guerrillas and local people, Commander Yang Chengwu made a battle plan of "encircling Wei to save Zhao", and ordered the 3rd and 20th regiments to pretend to attack the Japanese troops in the critical juncture, Songshan and Ganhe areas, prompting the Japanese troops to deploy reinforcements from the northeast of Langya Mountain, so as to facilitate the besieged guerrillas and people to break through from the northeast of Langya Mountain.
According to this battle plan, Colonel Qiu Wei handed over the task of covering the transfer of troops to the 7th company. At midnight, Colonel Qiu Wei commanded the troops and local people to move safely from Pantuo Road to Tiangang, Niugang and Songgang. Early in the morning, the Japanese puppet troops mistakenly thought that the Qiu Wei regiment had been surrounded. Under the cover of planes and artillery, the puppet troops violently attacked Langya Mountain for more than 500 days.
The 7 th company soldiers had already laid mines on the enemy's only road, leaving more than 50 bodies behind for the Japanese puppet troops to flee in haste. Convinced that Qiu Wei's regiment was surrounded, the Japanese commander ordered his troops to attack Langya Mountain again.
In the fierce battle, most of the 7 th company soldiers died, and the company commander Liu Fushan was seriously injured and his life was dying. Instructor Cai ordered the class to stay and stick to it, so that the wounded soldiers of the big army and the seventh company could be safely transferred.
In order to stall and attract the Japanese puppet troops, Ma Baoyu led Ge Zhenlin, Song Xueyi and other five soldiers to retreat in the direction of Qipaituo while fighting, which led the Japanese puppet troops to a dead end. When they retreated above the chessboard, all the bullets had been exhausted, so they raised stones and threw them at the Japanese and puppet troops.
The Japanese puppet troops found that there were no bullets, and rushed to the top of the mountain, shouting "Take them alive, take them alive!"
Ma Baoyu, Ge Zhenlin, Song Xueyi, Hu Delin and Hu Fucai would rather die than surrender. In order to prevent the Japanese puppet troops from seizing their weapons and falling into their hands, they smashed their guns and shouted, "Down with Japanese imperialism!" " "Long live the China * * * production party!" Wait for the slogan to jump off the cliff.
Ma Baoyu, Hu Delin and Hu Fucai died heroically, but Ge Zhenlin, the vice squad leader, and Song Xueyi, the soldier, were caught by the branches on the cliff and survived.
The heroic feats of five soldiers, including squad leader Ma Baoyu, quickly spread throughout the whole army, and were known as the "Five Strong Men of Langya Mountain".
4. "Dong Cunrui bombed the bunker"
In the early morning of May 25th, 1948, before dawn, the position was silent. The soldiers waited anxiously for the signal of attack. With three red flares in the air, the powerful artillery of the People's Liberation Army suppressed all the enemy firepower on Mount Moss.
In the smoke and fire, the brick tower on the top of Mount Tai was knocked down by the heavy bombardment of China People's Liberation Army, and the turret was also knocked out. Soon, the red flag of victory was planted on the top of Mount Tai.
At 3: 30 pm, the second attack began. Six companies charge Longhua Middle School. Suddenly, the enemy's machine guns swept over like a rainstorm, pressing the soldiers under a soil slope and lifting their heads.
It turns out that this is six flames from a bridge across a dry river in the northeast corner of Longhua Middle School. The cunning enemy built a cleverly disguised bunker on the bridge to stop our army from charging.
At this point, Dong Cunrui and his comrades have been well documented to the company commander, demanding to blow up the bridge bunker. Deputy company commander Bai Pai Li Zhende and other three blasters blasted. Li Zhende rushed out not far away, and the explosive charge was hit by enemy bullets. Li Zhende died and two other bombers were seriously injured.
At this time, the regimental headquarters came to an urgent order, asking the Sixth Company to rush in from the northeast corner of the middle school to cooperate with the brothers who had already rushed into the middle school and quickly solve the battle. Deputy company commander Bai ordered Dong Cunrui to blow up the bunker.
Dong Cunrui picked up the charge, bent and rushed out. Under the cover of Zhi Shunyi's fire, he crawled forward for a while, then stood up and ran violently in the smoke of grenades thrown by Zhi Shunyi.
In the bridge bunker, the machine guns of the Kuomintang army are getting tighter and tighter, and the bullets pass by his ears with a sharp whistle. When he was about to rush into the open field, Zhi Shunyi pointed to a small mound in front and said to Dong Cunrui, "You cover here!"
A grenade blew up the Abatis and barbed wire in front of the enemy bunker. The machine guns of the Kuomintang army rushed at him again. Suddenly, Dong Cunrui fell. Zhi Shunyi stood up and was about to rush forward. He suddenly got up, jumped into the dry river ditch and entered the fire corner of the Kuomintang army.
At this time, his leg was injured and he was bleeding profusely. He rushed under the bridge with explosives in his arms. This bridge is more than one person high from the ground, with masonry on both sides, no ditch, no edge and no place to put explosives anywhere.
If you put the explosive charge on the river bed, you can't blow up the bunker, and you can't find anything to replace the gunpowder support on the river bed What shall we do? Zhi Shunyi looked at all this clearly and clenched his fist anxiously. Suddenly, there was a loud charge behind him. It was time to attack.
Dong Cunrui looked up at the top of the bridge and looked at the fallen comrades behind him. He paused. Suddenly, he leaned to the left and stood in the middle of the bridge. He held up the explosive charge in his left hand and let it stick tightly to the bottom of the bridge, while pulling the fuse in his right hand. After seeing it, Zhi Shunyi jumped up and ran to his comrades under the bridge.
When Dong Cunrui saw this, he snapped, "Lie down! Get down. Get down. ! "With a loud noise, the enemy bunker was blown up, and Dong Cunrui opened the way for the troops with his life. He was only 19 years old when he died.
5. Flying over Luding Bridge
1935 In May, the Red Army, which fought against Japan in the north, advanced into the natural barrier Dadu River. The Dadu River is fast-flowing, with mountains on both sides, and only one cable bridge can cross it. This iron cable bridge is the Luding bridge that the Red Army will seize when it goes north.
Two regiments of Kuomintang reactionaries defended Luding Bridge and prevented the Red Army from going north. Later, two brigades were sent to reinforce, hoping to wipe out our Red Army on the bridge. Our army has long seen through the enemy's tricks.
On the morning of the 28th, the Red Fourth Regiment received an order from its superior: "Capture Luding Bridge on the morning of the 29th!" There are only more than 20 hours left, and the Red Four Regiment is 240 miles away from Luding Bridge. Two enemy brigades and reinforcements are marching on the Luding Bridge on the other side. Leading the enemy is the key for our army to defeat the enemy.
The Red Fourth Regiment climbed over the mountains and defeated several enemies blocking along the road. By 7: 00 p.m., there are still 1 10 miles from Luding Bridge. The soldiers didn't take care of eating all day. It began to rain again, and they all got wet. The determination to defeat the enemy made them forget hunger and fatigue. In the dark night, they braved the heavy rain and walked on through the mud.
Suddenly, countless torches appeared on the other side, like a long snake running in the direction of Luding Bridge, apparently the enemy's reinforcements. The soldiers of the Red Fourth Regiment simply lit a fire to light the road and race with the enemy on the other side.
When the enemy saw the torch here, he shouted at the top of his voice, "Where are you from?" Our soldiers loudly replied, "It was the Red Army that brought it down." The enemy on the other side is not suspicious. The two armies, like two fire dragons, walked twenty or thirty miles across the Dadu River.
It rained harder and harder, pouring out torches on both sides. The enemy on the other side couldn't walk any further, so they had to stop and camp. The Red Fourth Regiment still marched in the dark and in the rain, and finally arrived at Luding Bridge in the early morning of the 29th, leaving behind the enemies of the two reinforced brigades.
Luding Bridge is several feet high from the water and consists of 13 chains: two on each side, which is considered as a bridge fence; There are 9 pieces side by side below, and the deck is paved with boards. People stagger on the bridge, just like swinging. Now even the boards have been removed by the enemy, leaving only chains.
Look under the bridge, it's really scary. Like a waterfall, the reddish-brown river plunges down from the upstream canyon, hitting the rocks and splashing waves more than ten feet high. The sound of the waves was deafening.
Luding city on the other side of the bridge is backed by mountains, and the west gate faces the bridge. The enemies of the two regiments guarding the city have already built fortifications on the city walls and hillsides, and with natural hazards, they frantically shouted to the Red Army: "Come on, watch you fly!"
The Red Fourth Regiment immediately launched a general attack. The colonel and the political commissar personally stood on the bridge to direct the battle. The trumpeter blew the horn and all the weapons fired together. The sound of guns and shouts shook the valley instantly.
The second company served as a commando, and 22 heroes, armed with spears, sabers and grenades, braved the enemy's dense bullets and climbed the chain and rushed to the other side. Behind them is the third company. The soldiers, except for weapons, each took a board and paved the bridge as they advanced.
No sooner had the commandos rushed to the other side than the enemy set fire to the bridge, which was immediately surrounded by fire. At this critical moment, there came the shouts of the colonel and the political commissar: "Comrades! For the cause of the party, for the final victory, go! "
Hearing the call of the party, the heroes became more desperate. They all rushed into the city like arrows through the blazing fire and fought fiercely with the enemies in the city. After two hours of fierce fighting, most of the enemies guarding the city were wiped out, and the rest fled in panic.
The Red Fourth Regiment heroically captured Luding Bridge and won another decisive victory in the Long March. The main force of the Red Army crossed the natural barrier Dadu River and went to the anti-Japanese front.
