One day in 1939, somewhere in the northeast of the Japanese garrison, there were suddenly several heart-rending cries, and it turned out that the devils were planning to execute four "prisoners."
One of them, a prisoner with a lewd appearance and a shrewd look, who was not a good thing at first glance, was hugging the devil's thigh and tearfully saying:
"Taijun, I didn't lie to you, I sincerely want to turn to you, that note is not mine!"
When the devil heard this, he immediately raised his foot to kick him away, and replied with a cold look: "At this point, you still want to deceive me, which is really very bad!" ”
Immediately after, regardless of how these people struggled, he turned around and walked away. After a while, only a few gunshots were heard not far away, and the surrounding area was calm.
What they didn't know was that in a small room not far from them, a woman was lying on the wall, silently listening to the movement on this side. When she was sure that the four prisoners had all been killed, she opened her mouth and grinned a big smile, but, strangely enough, the next second, a tear suddenly fell from the corner of her eye.
So, who is this woman? Who were the four prisoners who were killed? What kind of story happened among them? Why did they end up in such a situation?
To figure this out, it has to start many years ago.

In 1931, the Japanese devils launched the cruel September 18 Incident, and the entire territory of Northeast China has since fallen into the hands of the enemy. This major change has changed the lives of countless people in the northeast. Some people gradually became depressed, and even began to bow to the enemy, following them against their compatriots in exchange for what they saw as "wealth and glory." And some people still stand up with their chests up, throw themselves into the revolution without fear of hardship, and resolutely fight against the devils to the end, and that woman is a fighter against the Japanese, her name is called
Tian Zhongqiao
。
In January 1907, Tian Zhongqiao was born in The town of Bamiantong, Muling County, Mudanjiang City, Heilongjiang Province, when China was still under the rule of the Qing government, due to the faint and decadent government, overseas powers frequently violated the interests of our country, countless Chinese sons and daughters were indignant about this, but they were hindered by power and could not return to heaven.
Slowly, people with lofty ideals gradually realized that the Qing government could not be allowed to continue to plague China, and in order to change the situation, the people decided to unite and overthrow the feudal dynasty.
Tian Zhongqiao's father was a well-known local rich man, and unlike other rich people, he also had a strong patriotic heart, and driven by a sense of responsibility, he and his wife joined the anti-imperialist alliance together, providing secret strongholds for underground party comrades for many years and acting as liaisons. It is worth mentioning that these two comrades also covered up Yang Song, the main leader of the Jidong Special Committee of the CPC under the pseudonym Wu Ping at that time.
Under the influence of his parents, Tian Zhongqiao's heart planted a revolutionary seed since he was a child.
In 1931, after the September 18 Incident, Tian Zhongqiao resolutely gave up a comfortable life and embarked on a rough revolutionary road with his sister Tian Mengjun. She joined the Anti-Japanese Salvation Congress in her hometown and became a traffic officer.
Although the traffic officers do not have to go to the battlefield, the invisible battlefield is more cruel than the frontal battlefield, not only to test the judgment and reaction of the revolutionaries, but also to require the crowd to maintain good patience and firm will. However, all this was difficult for Tian Zhongqiao, and after several years of hard work, her ability became stronger and stronger, and finally she joined the Chinese Communist Party under the recommendation of Li Fanwu.
After joining the Communist Party, she became more hardworking than before, and at the age of 28, she became a well-known female Haojie in the northeast land. During those fourteen years of arduous War of Resistance, she was the only female secretary of the central county party committee of our party in the local area, a member of the Preparatory Committee of the Second Route Army of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Coalition Army... and was the highest-ranking female leader in the northeast region. Comrade Zhou Baozhong, commander-in-chief of the Second Route Army of the Anti-Japanese League, also admired her very much and often called on the soldiers to learn from her.
In 1932, Tian Zhongqiao received instructions from the Jidong Special Committee of the Communist Party of China to open a secret passage in the northeast from Muling to the Soviet Union, and it was because of this passage that several senior cadres of our Party were able to safely go to the Soviet Union to handle affairs.
For 14 years, Tian Zhongqiaomiao used his special identity to hide in the Mudanjiang area and Harbin area, wandering among various coalition troops, and successively cooperated with Zhang Jiazhou, commander of the anti-Japanese guerrilla army, and Zhou Baozhong, commander-in-chief of the Anti-Japanese Second Route Army. The areas where the troops fought had left their mark of her activities. She has used her rich experience in the war countless times to complete the transfer tasks assigned by her superiors. She was captured by the Japanese side three times, but she never revealed a clue unfavorable to our party, and never betrayed any underground party member.
On March 10, 1937, spring arrived, but the cold northeast was still covered with snowflakes. Under the instructions of Comrade Zhou Baozhong, Tian Zhongqiao disguised himself as a relative and went to Mudanjiang City to carry out the anti-Japanese mobilization work in the city.

She first lived in the underground liaison station of the Nishisanjo Road Dijia Tofu Factory, and then through various means, secretly infiltrated the quilt factory of the Japanese warehouse to work. In that factory, she used the sense of national righteousness to make people rekindle the spirit of dedication to the country, and then used her personality charm to attract them to the party. With her efforts, it did not take long for more than 30 workers to become anti-Japanese members, the party branch of the Mudanjiang Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China was established, and Comrade Wang Qingshan was elected secretary.
In April of the same year, the brave Tian Zhongqiao joined forces with Wang Qingshan to evade the defense of many Japanese devils, and set a fire in their warehouse. This exhilarating fire lasted for a whole day and a night, and no matter how the enemy remedied it, it could not be extinguished, and finally the nearly a thousand tons of grain and other military supplies hidden in their warehouses were destroyed.
In August 1938, using the secret information obtained by Tian Zhongqiao in advance, the joint forces of the Second Anti-Japanese Army and the Fifth Army quietly lurked in the area of Muling waiting for Magou Railway Station, eliminating more than 300 Japanese mechanized infantry, destroying a train, and harvesting more than 100 warhorses as spoils.
However, just as the crowd rejoiced in the smooth progress of the operation, the danger quietly approached. In the same month, with the fall of Shanghai and Nanjing, Song Yifu, secretary of the Jidong Provincial Party Committee of the Communist Party of China, lost the heart of struggle, he was frightened by the Japanese devils, and began to think that it was an unattainable dream for Chinese soldiers to defeat the Japanese army on the battlefield, so he chose to betray the organization and surrender to the enemy with money.
As a senior cadre of the organization in the northeast region, Song Yifu has the contact information of many relevant cadres and the location of the secret activities of underground party members. After he surrendered to the enemy, he immediately told all these news to the Japanese devils, which directly led to the capture of many leaders of the Anti-Japanese League, and Tian Zhongqiao was also one of them.
Fortunately, these devils did not know the true identity of Tian Zhongqiao, they only knew that the thin woman in front of them was an underground party member, but they did not know that she was the highest-ranking female leader in the anti-coalition team, let alone that she still held the intelligence network in the Mudanjiang area.
At that time, Song Yifu had just entered the enemy camp, and the enemy did not trust him very much, so he relaxed the guarding of Tian Zhongqiao. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the organization immediately sent someone to rescue Tian Zhongqiao from prison.
After successfully leaving prison, Tian Zhongqiao, who had already suffered a lot, became more cautious than ever, but strangely, it was not long before she was captured by the enemy again.
On that day, she was disguised as a beggar and begging for food on the edge of Ning'an City. Suddenly, several Japanese puppet soldiers took a piece of paper and walked straight to her.
When they got closer, the Japanese puppet soldiers immediately controlled her and said to her:
"You are the secretary of the county party committee of the Communist Party!" Let's go, come with us! ”
Tian Zhongqiao naturally refused, she shook her left and right, and while struggling, she cried and shouted: "Taijun, I am just a person who wants food, how can I be a big official like the secretary of the county party committee?" ”
Seeing that the enemy was not moved, she continued: "My hometown is in Raohe, there are old people in the family, there are small ones under the family, my husband is still lying on the bed and can't move, it's all up to me to ask for some food to maintain my life, Taijun, you will do well, let us have a way to live!" ”
Until then, the enemy would have relaxed his guard a little, as she had said, but this time, the enemy still clung to her and did not hesitate to forcibly escort her to prison.
In order to make her tell the truth, the enemy used a thousand tricks on her, tiger stools, thorn bamboo sticks... These torture devices, which seem creepy to us, are gradually becoming commonplace.
Slowly, under the torment of the enemy, she even had suicidal thoughts. No wonder she thought so, such a pain, even a thick-skinned man, could not stand it, let alone such a weak woman as her. However, whenever she had such a thought, she would always think of the other Party members, of the people who were still struggling in the war, for whom she could not die! Tian Zhongqiao gradually calmed down, swallowed all his hatred into his stomach, and continued to show weakness to the enemy pitifully.
The enemy once again sent her to the execution chamber and poured her chilli water, and the pungent taste burned her entire respiratory tract, and her snot and tears flowed out, and at the same time, her stomach began to bulge like a pregnant woman.
The enemy pressed something against her feet, then squeezed her stomach hard, and the pepper water in her abdomen immediately spurted out of her mouth, causing her another bone-chilling pain. Tian Zhongqiao's face was pale, and he fainted in an instant.
She was awakened by a bucket of cold water, and the enemy asked her again:"
Honestly, tell us all the information you know, and we promise not to torture you again.
”
Tian Zhongqiao still had a hard mouth: "You are mistaken, I am not the secretary of the county party committee, I may just have the same name as the person you want to arrest!" ”
Listening to these words, the devils hesitated a little, and they really did not have the exact evidence to confirm Tian Zhongqiao's identity. Plus, they don't think that a woman can keep telling the truth while she's deeply tortured. In such hesitation, the devils gradually relaxed their vigilance against Tian Zhongqiao and sent her to Diao Ling's Japanese army work class to supervise.

Life there was much better than being held in prison, and after Tian Zhongqiao recovered from his injuries, he was allowed to move freely in the courtyard. After that, you can also wash the clothes of Japanese devils and do some chores.
With this slackness, Tian Zhongqiao quietly hid in the shadows and began to look for opportunities to escape.
However, when she was out looking for an opportunity to escape, one day, in the small forest next to her, there was a sudden noise, and Tian Zhongqiao noticed that there was a voice inside that was very familiar, so he quietly approached.
Carefully hiding behind the hiding object, she leaned out and found that it was her husband
Xun Yukun
I was standing with the Japanese devil, not knowing what I was plotting. Listening carefully, the husband was speaking in a rooster voice and said to the Japanese devils in a flattering manner: "Guan Shufan's previous agreement with the Taijun was not carried out on schedule because when we went back to plan to pull the team, we were detected by Chai Shirong, and he immediately reported the matter to Zhou Baozhong." Zhou Baozhong immediately killed Guan Shufan, expelled us from the party, removed us from our posts, and detained us. If we hadn't been clever enough to escape when the guards weren't ready, you wouldn't have seen us! ”
The male duck's throat was still chirping, but Tian Zhongqiao had already been blown up. She had understood that the reason why she had been caught, and was deeply suspected by her enemies, was that her husband was playing a ghost. She hated his lack of affection, hated him for doing harm only for the sake of glory and wealth, and hated herself who had brought him into the team in the first place.
She had always known that her husband was an indisputable guy, so she would carefully avoid him every time she moved. But they are the closest couple after all, and after a long time, they will always show a little horse's foot.
Once, Tian Zhongqiao, as usual, dressed up as a noble lady to meet with the underground party comrades, but that activity happened to be seen by Xun Yukun. For some reason, Xun Yukun was very interested in this and wanted to join the organization.
How dare Tian Zhongqiao let him engage in such an important job? In order to avoid Xun Yukun's harassment, she tricked him into the Xiaojiangyan area and sent him to the inspection office of the Fifth Army of the Anti-Japanese Coalition stationed there, where she handed him over to Inspector Feng Pirang for handling.
After the superiors knew what had happened, they also agreed to her solution, and since then, Xun Yukun has officially entered the work of the Fifth Army of the Anti-Japanese Coalition. However, the later development exceeded Tian Zhongqiao's expectations, and Comrade Feng Pi did not take the problem too seriously, in his eyes, Xun Yukun was just an ordinary tramp.
At first, Feng Pirang only arranged some unimportant work for him according to the instructions of his superiors, but after more than a year of ideological reform, Xun Yukun showed positive behavior and changed his bad habit of smoking, so Feng Pirang thought that he had really reformed and was willing to entrust him with some important work.
During a recent western expedition, his superiors decided to make him the quartermaster general and act with Guan Shufan.
However, this appointment was like letting the tiger return to the mountain, and Xun Yukun and Guan Shufan immediately agreed, planning to pull the team out and join the Japanese devils!
Tian Zhongqiao could not tolerate such a bad behavior of her husband, plus, if Xun Yukun saw her here, he would definitely betray her again! In order to prevent more people from being framed by Xun Yukun, and in order to protect her own safety, she decided to strike first!
As an experienced underground party comrade, she still had a lot of small ideas, and before long, she came up with a good idea.
First of all, according to her memory, she copied Chai Shirong's handwriting and wrote a small note, which read:
The method of false surrender was used to deceive the trust of the Japanese in order to achieve the purpose of infiltrating the enemy camp to obtain intelligence. The liaison point is located in the third stone crevice next to the crooked neck pine tree behind Diao Ling Mountain.
In order to make this play more realistic, Tian Zhongqiao also specially wrote a real contact point. Of course, she did not want to exchange a small amount of loss for greater benefits, but she knew that according to the regulations of the anti-coalition underground party at that time, each contact point would be abandoned if it was not used for more than a month. Counting the time, she had been arrested and imprisoned for more than a month, and her superiors should have known that something had happened to her and automatically abandoned the contact point.
After writing the note, she took advantage of the fact that others were not ready, and quietly stuffed the note into her husband's pants (the pants were sewn by her), a small note, just like this, after drying, hidden on Xun Yukun's body.
As she had expected, it didn't take long for the Japanese devils to find the note and, according to the location of the note, to find the contact point.
The situation was turned upside down in an instant, and Tian Zhongqiao became the one who witnessed the persecution of the pillow people by the Japanese devils in the dark, and Xun Yukun became the fish under the devil's knife.
The devils also seemed to know that Xun Yukun was not valued in the organization, was a useless person, and planned to kill him before he could be interrogated, so the opening scene appeared.
After determining the death of her husband, Tian Zhongqiao's heart was indeed much happier, but at the same time, an inexplicable sadness surged into her heart, she knew that engaging in this line of work, that is, she would experience many betrayals, and the people around her would be divided and merged, and all she could do was to keep moving forward!
After this time, Tian Zhongqiao's situation became safer than before, and finally, with the help of the crowd, she managed to escape from the prison.
Zhou Baozhong had been paying attention to her affairs outside, and after Chai Shirong learned about Tian Zhongqiao's situation, he was very touched in his heart, and he ordered the army operating near Anning to try to find Tian Zhongqiao. Unfortunately, due to various accidents, this goal has not been achieved.
Tian Zhongqiao was released from prison in 1941, when the situation of the anti-Japanese coalition army was still very dangerous, and according to the current situation, the superiors decided to send staff from Yan'an to contact him.
However, in this joint activity, the news of the crowd was once again betrayed by the traitors, and Tian Zhongqiao once again fell into the hands of the enemy.
This time, the enemy had affirmed her identity, and no matter how cunning she was, he would not let down his guard against her, and the means of execution were even more cruel than before.
Before the devils moved, maybe there would be a pause, but this time they did, they would not hesitate to use a heavy punishment, and focus on the most developed parts of her body.
In those four years, the once iron-boned heroines were tortured by them to the point of immaturity, and even countless times the thought of asking for death flashed in their hearts.
In the miserable life, such thoughts became more and more intense, she looked at the dim cage, stared at the vicious faces of the devils, and then looked at her own skin-like body, she was finally impulsive.
Once, taking advantage of the enemy's lack of preparation, she jumped out of the window. Perhaps she still has a strong desire for "life" and wants to continue to serve the people.
accidentally
It didn't cost her life, she had multiple fractures all over her body, but she never gasped.
However, even though she had fallen into this field, the Japanese devils still did not let her go, and in order to confuse us and stir up the relationship between the people, the devils forcibly changed her into a Japanese kimono and escorted her from Mudanjiang to the Harbin Police Department with great fanfare.
Fortunately, the organization still believed her, and in 1945, after the devil surrendered to our country and retired to Japan, the comrades immediately rescued her from prison.
What is touching is that the first thing Tian Zhongqiao did after he was released from prison was not to find a famous doctor and treat his body, but to immediately drag his weak and sick body to the local area and run to a deep mountain and old forest after waking up, and personally took the anti-coalition contingent of more than 200 comrades led by Wang Yachen, commander of the Tenth Anti-Japanese Army, out of the deep mountains and handed over to Comrade Li Zhaoqi, commander-in-chief of the Third Route Army of the Anti-Japanese League.

Wang Yachen
It was a commander who was very good at hiding, and there was a real joke at the time that Wang Yachen's team was too deeply hidden, and his superiors wanted to contact him, and they looked around for more than half a year, but they did not find his hidden point.
When the anti-coalition team fell into a desperate situation, most of the other teams went to the Soviet Union, and only he led the team, staying in the northeast to fight against the Japanese devils.
In 1941, on the way out of the mountain, everyone was betrayed by the traitors, Wang Yachen and deputy commander Zhang Zhongxi were killed one after another, and the remnants of the Tenth Army insisted on their faith, continued to hide in the mountains, and refused to surrender down the mountain.
Since the people were haunted, even if the devils wanted to kill all of them, there was no way. In this way, they fought against the Japanese and waited until the Japanese surrendered.
But because the traces of this team are too difficult to find, and they do not communicate with the locals much, they still did not receive news after the surrender of Japan, until Tian Zhongqiao entered the mountain, which allowed the team to return to the arms of the organization.
After that, the organization took pity on the harm she had suffered, and no longer let her do secret work, but sent her to the newly formed Northeast Martyrs Memorial Hall. He also found an old doctor with excellent medical skills from other regions and accompanied her to treat her. After a long recuperation, her body and spirit improved a lot.

Perhaps it is a good person in heaven, Comrade Tian Zhongqiao lived to the age of 99 after the founding of the country. This heroine used her life to witness China's rise from the trough to the rise, and then to become a powerful country that countless people are proud of! And the country has not forgotten this heroine who has dedicated many to the country, and she has become one of the outstanding female fighters who was awarded the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Chinese People's Liberation Army.
