In the last century, the Chinese nation experienced a difficult and arduous road of exploration, and on the road of saving the country and trying to survive, many heroic figures also emerged, who did not hesitate to pay their youth and even precious lives for the sake of national reunification and national unity.
As we all know, during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army went deep behind enemy lines and launched a fierce struggle, and the five heroes of Wolf's Tooth Mountain were five of the famous Soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, and their stories were also well-known, and their heroic and tenacious spirit was worth remembering for future generations. In 1951, Song Xueyi, one of the five heroes of Wolf's Tooth Mountain, was found, and Chairman Mao invited him to dinner after entering Beijing.
We all know that at the last moment, the five heroes of Wolf's Tooth Mountain, rather than die, jumped off the cliff together, and finally Song Xueyi and Ge Zhenlin were hung on the branches of the mountainside and survived, but the other three Ma Baoyu, Hu Delin and Hu Fucai warriors died heroically. Song Xueyi finally found his own team, but unlike Ge Zhenlin, he chose to change careers and return home after the victory of the war.
I. Song Xueyi participated in the War of Resistance
At the beginning of the last century, China's social turmoil, the Western powers set off a frenzy of dividing Up China, the Qing Dynasty gradually fell to the end, in 1912 the Republic of China was founded, China's thousands of years of feudal dynasty rule became history. However, at that time, various organizational forces such as warlords and warlords were in full swing, and insurrection movements were also emerging in an endless stream.
Song Xueyi was born in this chaotic world, in 1918 Song Xueyi was born in a small village in Henan, his family was poor, he worked for the landlord's family since he was a child, suffered a lot of hardships, and saw the hardships and difficulties of the life of the people at the bottom of that society. When he was 19 years old, the landlords seized the last remaining land of his family, and their already poor family was even worse.
In 1937, he lived a life of fleeing the famine and asking for food, in fact, in that era, many people in rural areas of China were forced to leave their homes because of natural disasters or landlord bullying. But the young Song Xueyi did not allow himself to degenerate because of this, and he joined the anti-Japanese guerrillas in 1939 and became a glorious soldier of the Eighth Route Army.
He followed the team to fight guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines, giving the enemy a heavy blow, and in the baptism of war after war, Song Xueyi gradually grew into a more qualified fighter, and also joined the organization, constantly refining his skills in the fire of war, and strengthening his desire to serve the country.
Second, the heroic deeds of the five heroes of Wolf's Tooth Mountain
At that time, our Party established many revolutionary base areas behind enemy lines, and the Jinji-Hebei Luyu base area was one of them, and it was also very famous, and from here came many revolutionary generals, and their glorious deeds have been passed down to future generations. In the autumn of 1941, the Eighth Route Army in the Jin-Cha-Ji base area engaged in a deadly contest with the enemy.
The Japanese army organized a large number of troops to attack the Wolf-Tooth Mountain area, but at that time, the number of troops in the Wolf-Tooth Mountain area was not large, and if it fought with the Japanese army, it would only cause more damage, and for the sake of the overall situation, to save the main force and the local people, the chief left seven companies to cover the main force and the mass transfer.
The five brave men were the five soldiers of the six squads of the seventh company, and their company had been fighting the enemy for a month before, and now the task of covering the transfer of troops and the masses had fallen on the sixth squad, and they had to use all the existing resources to drag the Japanese forward and buy more time for the troops and the masses to withdraw.
The five brave men of the sixth squad decided to take advantage of the terrain to block the enemy, and when the Japanese approached, they opened fire and artillery, and after covering the withdrawal of the team, the five of them also decided to move quickly, but they did not choose to join the large troops, but took another road, and their squad leader Ma Baoyu led them to a road leading to the cliff.
Although they were well aware that they would face great dangers when they went, none of the five of them refused, and for the safety of the large troops and the masses, they did not hesitate to attract enemy firepower and did not hesitate to go to the end of the road. Along the way, they were still struggling to resist, and in the end, the five warriors were still outnumbered, and they reached the peak of Wolf's Tooth Mountain, and further ahead was the cliff of Wanzhang.
They looked into the distance from the top of the mountain, convinced that this broken mountain and river would soon be repaired and the enemy would be driven out of China, and the five heroes shouted slogans and heroically jumped off the Wolf's Tooth Mountain, but Song Xueyi and Ge Zhenlin were lucky enough to be hung by the branches of the mountainside, and the other three brave men died heroically.
3. Song Xue's life after the War
Song Xueyi and Ge Zhenlin were later rescued by the troops, but Song Xueyi suffered a very serious waist injury, and later when he reported to the organization the battle of Wolf's Tooth Mountain, he showed that he was very ashamed, the other three comrades jumped off the cliff and sacrificed, but he survived because of luck, so in the face of the organization to give him a reward, he vigorously refused, he himself did not need those meritorious names.
Later, the heroic deeds of the five heroes of Wolf's Tooth Mountain spread in the ranks, and the organization also encouraged everyone to learn this fearless spirit, and Song Xueyi was arranged to study and study, and the organization hoped that he could be trained into an excellent revolutionary general, but Song Xueyi was born into a peasant family, uneducated, and worked as a farmer from an early age.
Now let him learn these cultural knowledge, he feels that it is more difficult than fighting, but organizationally considering his waist also refuses him to return to the battlefield. In 1944, Song Xueyi insisted on returning to his hometown because of a waist injury, and the persuasion was fruitless, and the chief agreed to his transfer, and after returning to his hometown, he lived a peaceful life, and no one knew his previous deeds.
After the founding of New China, the whole country was commending revolutionary meritorious soldiers, the heroic deeds of the five heroes of Wolf-Tooth Mountain were widely circulated, song Xueyi even though he lived in a low-key life for many years, but was still found by the commissioner, he was immediately famous in the local area, everyone could not believe that he was actually a combat hero.
In 1959, when Song Xueyi went to Beijing to participate in the tenth anniversary of the National Day, Chairman Mao also invited him to a meal, the meal was very ordinary, their staple food was roast cake and millet porridge, and the dishes were three vegetarian and one meat, namely braised radish shredded radish, tiger skin tofu and stir-fried shredded meat. Although it is three vegetarian and one meat, it looks like an ordinary meal, but the revolutionary emotion is deep and indelible.
epilogue
Song Xueyi did not stay in the army like Ge Zhenlin, but chose to return to his hometown and continue to farm in his hometown. Low-key life, this may be Song Xueyi's choice, he wants to make some contribution to his hometown. He had said that he was not a hero, that he had only done what a warrior should do, and that since he was still alive, he would continue to dedicate.
Now that our country has been developing peacefully for many years, this prosperous and prosperous era cannot be separated from the efforts of these revolutionary ancestors, without whom there would be no China today, and the heroic deeds of the five heroes of Wolf's Tooth Mountain will still affect the Chinese generations.
