To this end, Zheng Qun, commander of the Second East Detachment, led the main three regiments and six regiments (head Lin Jingqiu and political commissar Luo Weiqiang) to move from Hexi to Heping Northeast, Longchuan North and Jiangxi Gannan, actively eliminating the stubborn Kuomintang army and disintegrating the local Kuomintang rural political power and defense team. Under the impetus and influence of my powerful political offensive and the "five wars and five victories" of the East Second Division, the stubborn Kuomintang troops were crowded in turrets wherever our army went.
Many elites who were forced to set up joint defense teams and regional, township and security regimes showed negative vacillation. Some of them secretly dissolved themselves, many sent people to join us and provide information in secret, and some hoped to rise as soon as possible and make contributions to the people. At that time, the leaders of the Second East Branch and the Sixth Regiment saw that it could be located in the border area between Longchuan and peace county (including Guzhai, Zhai Peng, An 'ao, Beidun, Yousheng, Dongshui, Luoding, Changtang, Qingzhou, Hot Water and other peaceful towns; Longchuan's Chetian, Wuding, Huangbu, Chiguang, Beiling, Long Mu, Huangshi and other northern Sichuan towns; Jiangxi is close to the counties of Dingnan, Longnan and Quannan in Guangdong, and established the vast base areas for co-production at the earliest.
In the * * * Nine Company, the prefectural party committee and the East Second Team decided to set up the * * * Dragon (Sichuan) and (Ping) Border Region Working Committee, which is composed of five members: Luo Wei, Li Qun, Chen Wei, Deputy Secretary and Propaganda Committee, Standing Committee and Organization Committee, Liang Xixiang, Standing Committee and Underground Party Leader, and Lin Ruo. In order to achieve this goal and put forward plans and measures, the Longhe Border Working Committee held several meetings. The first meeting was held in the upper half pit of Heping Ancient Village. Luo, Li Qun, Chen, Lin Ruo, Liang Xixiang, He, Ling Chuntao, Peng, Xie Zitao, Xiao Ribao, etc. attended the meeting. The meeting was presided over by Comrade Luo and conveyed the superior's report on the current excellent situation and why we should do a good job in the car uprising. I conveyed the plan on how to liberate Guzhai, An 'ao and other towns, and the meeting made a division of labor. Luo, Peng, Xie Zitao and other comrades returned to northern Sichuan to plan the "Chetian Uprising". I was instructed by the Sixth Regiment of the Second East Detachment to lead Zheng, Li Genlian (the main force of the Sixth Regiment) and Liu Jin squadron to liberate Guzhai and An 'ao after the Spring Festival. Comrade Lin Ruo led a martial arts team to win, get off and go to Changtang. At midnight on March 1949 and 1 Sunday, we liberated villages and towns such as Guzhai and Xiangyuzhai in An 'ao, captured more than 60 Kuomintang people, including Guzhai Township, An 'ao Township, defense chief and team members, and seized more than 60 rifles and a batch of ammunition.
When the warehouse is opened, food is distributed to the nearby people, and the situation is well publicized to the people, the Kuomintang will lose, our army will win, the reactionary rule of the Kuomintang will be overthrown, and our army will implement policies such as "reducing rent, distributing land and distributing food", "opposing the three standards", "three major disciplines and eight attentions", our army will voluntarily withdraw from the ancient village and move to Heping Northeast and Longchuan North with the Sixth Regiment. At that time, there were teams such as Zhu Wenhe and Yang Ronglie who persisted in the struggle in northern Sichuan. They cooperated with the underground party comrades in the uprising of the Kuomintang party and government personnel in Chetian, participated in the ideological work of liberating Chetian, and attacked the invading enemies. Peng was promoted from the position of Zhu Wenhe's team instructor. The main force of the Second East Branch and most of the Sixth Regiment moved to Hexi again. The organization sent me to lead the powerful martial arts teams such as Liu Jin, Peng, Ling Chuntao and Xie, and assist the Chetian underground party to continue the Chetian uprising in Chetian area in northern Sichuan.
Why was it important to liberate the garage first and plan the garage uprising? This is because:
Chetian (1) is the only road passage from Longchuan to Heping, Li Anping, Jiangxi and Gannan. Chetianxu town is a Pingchuan town of twenty or thirty miles, surrounded by mountains, which can be attacked and defended. This place is rich in grain, pigs, three birds and peanuts. It is a prosperous place for farmers' fairs in Longchuan and peace county border areas, which can provide materials for large-scale military activities and is a battleground for military strategists.
(2) The rural masses near Chetian have a good foundation. After the baptism of the Great Revolution, influenced by our party's movements of "reducing rent and interest rates", "opposing the three levies" and "dividing fields and distributing grain", the underground party and martial arts team in Chetian area in northern Sichuan have made remarkable achievements in their activities and organizational development;
(3) In addition to doing a good job in mass propaganda, we have also done a good job in the United front work of the upper levels of the Kuomintang district, township and village governments and the joint defense teams. The progressives Deng Quqing (former Chetian District Chief, who became the township head after re-election), Captain Deng Hongen, Vice Captain Chen Dezhong, Senator Deng Xiaopu County and other elites sympathize with and support us, and have the desire to make contributions to the uprising.
In order to do a good job in the Chetian Uprising, the Longxian Frontier Defense Working Committee held its second meeting in Tietiankeng, Beidun, Heping. Participants: Li Qun, Chen, He, Peng, Xie Zitao, Ling Chuntao, Xiao Ribao, Zheng and Xie. I presided over the meeting (Luo has been transferred to central Sichuan) to check the preparations for the Chetian uprising since the last meeting. Comrade Peng and Xie Zitao reported on the development of underground party organizations, series of propaganda and mobilization of the masses, especially on the United front work of a group of squires such as Deng Quqing, the former head of Kuomintang Chetian (the former head of the uprising) and Deng, the captain of the joint defense team. Immediately decided: first, send my elite players to secretly participate in the joint defense team to monitor them; Second, continue to mobilize the masses and township leaders to eliminate those reactionaries through re-election. Through the efforts of the underground party and Wushu team, Deng Quqing was elected as the person in charge of the parking lot and the director of the joint defense team, and Deng continued to serve as the deputy captain of the joint defense team. Deng, the leader of his hometown, was forced to resign and return to his hometown. I made a special trip to Hexi and made a report to leading comrades such as Wei Nanjin, Zheng Qun and Lin Jingqiu. The leaders agreed that I would lead Peng, Xie Zitao and other comrades to the garage to talk to the squires such as Deng Quqing, Deng and Deng Yaopu, and asked us to explain to them the situation, great significance and policy towards the insurgents. Discuss with them the uprising plan and the contents of the uprising announcement, and cooperate with our army in cracking down on the Kuomintang security guard and the supply of local reactionaries and troops. Then I came back and held the third meeting of the Longhe Border Working Committee with Dongchetian in Beidun Nanba. In addition to the comrades attending the meeting for the second time, there are comrades such as Depei Chen, the leader of Chetian underground party. The meeting not only conveyed the instructions from the superiors, but also focused on how to implement them. After the meeting, I reported the meeting and decision in writing to the leaders of Jiulian District Committee and East Second Branch. After receiving the reply instruction, the fourth meeting of the Longhe River Defense Working Committee was secretly held in Chetian Township Office in early April. 1949. I read the instructions from my superiors. Peng and Xie Zitao reported on the development of underground party organizations, the re-election of leaders of townships, Bao and Jia, determined the agenda of the uprising, stipulated the contact symbols, and how to suppress the local capitulationists. Peng,, and other comrades informed Deng Quqing, Deng, Deng Yaopu and others to come to the township for formal talks. At first, the other party was a little nervous. After I conveyed the instructions from my superiors and explained to the other side the excellent situation, the policy of "letting bygones be bygones, rewarding meritorious deeds" and the great significance of the uprising, the other side relaxed and focused on the agenda of the uprising, the contents of the announcement and how to cooperate with the main force to crack down on the Kuomintang security guards and local mobilization troops. Finally, the two sides signed the Chetian Uprising Agreement. Decided 13 April (March of the lunar calendar 16) as the date of the uprising, and the defense password for the uprising day; We sent the martial arts teams of Xie, Peng and Ling Chuntao into the joint defense team to secretly monitor a few reactionaries. After the meeting, I immediately reported the talks and decisions to the leaders of the regimental headquarters and the East Second Branch. With the consent of the leaders, Zheng Qun, commander of the Second East Branch, led the main forces of the 3rd and 6th regiments to Dongchetian on March 12 to arrange the military action of the Kuomintang regiment that came to the garage for rescue after the uprising in Chetian.
In order to ensure the absolute victory of Chetian Uprising,1April 1949 12, I was ordered by my superiors to lead Zheng and Liu Jin's team, Peng and Ling Chuntao's martial arts teams into Chetian Township Office, and passed through the checkpoints leading to Guzhai, Beidun and Huangshi to cooperate with comrades' troops to annihilate and rescue the Kuomintang troops in Chetian. On the other hand, on the morning of the uprising, the townships Deng Quqing, Bao, and Jia Chang all concentrated in the venue of the township office in the name of holding a joint defense meeting, so that after Chetian announced the uprising, it was impossible to resist, and our army organized the collection of bullets.
1949 April 13, the weather was clear and the sun shone all over the earth, adding a breath of spring to the liberation of the parking lot. Today is market day, and many people go to the market. After Deng Xiangchang read out the report of the parking lot uprising at the joint meeting of the township leaders, he mobilized the participants who were willing to participate in the uprising and held a meeting in the conference square where the parking lot celebrated the victory of the liberation of the parking lot uprising. When Deng Quqing read the parking lot announcement to the conference and announced the liberation of the parking lot, applause, gongs and drums and firecrackers began to come and go, and the parking lot and the town were boiling. At this time, Deng, the captain of the defense team, specially called Lao Long according to our requirements to ask Longchuan City for emergency help, and lured more than five enemy security groups and the Zodiac Defense Group 1000 people to come to the garage for rescue. When the enemy marched to the parking lot in Huangshi, Comrade Zheng Qun commanded the troops to ambush and destroy an enemy battalion, captured Vice Battalion Commander Yang Xiaoxing and 100 people alive, seized mortars 1 doors, 2 guns of 60 guns, several machine guns, more than 0/00 guns, and a lot of ammunition. When the soldiers came to Chetianwei with victory products and prisoners, singing revolutionary songs, the venue where the celebration meeting was held rang with warm applause again, lighting firecrackers and beating gongs and drums. The masses, led by Deng, the head of the township, warmly welcomed the detachment soldiers who returned victorious and expressed their condolences to the soldiers. We had dinner with the head of the uprising, the deputy head, the head of Jiabao and the representatives of the masses at the district township office to celebrate the great victory of the Chetian uprising. During the celebration, there was good news again. Colonel Lin Jingqiu led the troops to win the battle of Lianghe in the parking lot, and dozens of people from Cao Heye's joint defense brigade fled in panic. Hearing the news of victory, the masses shouted "Down with the Kuomintang reactionaries", "Go to Longchuan City to capture the Taoist priest alive", "Capture Huang Mengzhou alive", "Long live the Producers Party of China" and "China People's Liberation Army".
At about 3 pm the next day, the scattered remnants of the Zodiac people wanted to assemble in the defense team station in the parking lot and stay at the turret. The vanguard troops have shouted "open the door" at the door, and the vice captain of the reactionary defense team and several soldiers of fortune want to open the door. Deng and Xie gave the order to "go to war" and immediately killed the vice captain of the reactionary defense team, "King Mirror", disarmed the soldier of fortune, and annihilated some vanguard troops of the ecliptic people. Under the attack of Zheng, Liu Jin, the rest of the enemy fled in the direction of peace.
In order to consolidate and expand the achievements of the Chetian Uprising, the Sixth Regiment of the Second East Branch, led by its head Lin Jingqiu, advanced non-stop in the middle of the night, liberated Huangshi and other towns, and captured Xu and others, the director of the District Defense Department. After dismantling the local defense team and collecting a large number of bullets, they went to Wuhua Xinqiao and Xingning Daping, and then turned back to Longchuan to fight with Comrade Zheng Qun in Heyuan, Zijin, Longchuan Laolong, Heping Dongshui, Zhai Peng and other places, promoting the uprising of the 13th Regiment of the Kuomintang, liberating Longchuan County (Yucheng), Laolong Town and Heping Dongshui, and eliminating more than 1,000 people from one regiment and two battalions of the Baoping Corps. Our army liberated Chetian and planned the victory of Chetian Uprising, which greatly shook the reactionary ruling foundation of Kuomintang in Longchuan and Heping counties and set an example for the glorious uprisings in Beiling and other districts and townships in Longchuan.
Not only make the dragon and the series of districts and towns near the border unite into a big base area. But also laid a solid foundation for promoting the creation of the vast base areas in Jiulian area, and made contributions to liberating Longchuan Laolong and other places and welcoming the troops to the south.
