The inscription records the past of Niuzhuang
A stele is a stone inscribed with words to commemorate a cause, merit, disaster, or as a marker. Such as tombstones, monuments, etc. Tombstones are monuments of merit inscribed after the death of an old man; monuments are stone tablets carved to commemorate a person, a major event, or to celebrate the victory of war.
In the stele pavilion of the Niuzhuang Village Committee of Shangwang Township in the Salt Lake District, there are several very educational and inspiring inscriptions.
One pass is "Ding Ugly Wasteland".
I am familiar with this inscription, which I told the students of the opening middle school as early as three years ago. This time, when I read the original text of "Ding Ugly Wasteland" in Niuzhuang, my soul was even more moved, and I seemed to see the tragic scene that happened in Niuzhuang that year:
It was three years of Guangxu, and except for a slight rain in March, there was no rain all year round. Wheat was slightly harvested, autumn grain was not harvested, and famine was everywhere, especially in Linfen, Puzhou, Xiezhou, and Daizhou. In the past, each stone of wheat was only three or two silver, but this year the silver gradually grew to thirty-two and zero. Prices soared, and the pain was unbearable: white noodles sold for hundreds of yuan per kilogram, steamed bread sold for 160 yuan per kilogram, tofu sold for 48 yuan per kilogram, and green onions, leeks and garlic sold for more than 30 yuan per kilogram. In desperation, people had to eat bark, chew grass roots, eat sand, and eat stone flowers. The bark of the whole village has been stripped and the ground has been dug into ruins. Cats and dogs eat everything, chickens and dolphins, luo que rats, everything. House utensils, give money to sell. Wood is sold per pound, one article per pound. Even the lifeblood of the Zhuang family, an acre of land can only be exchanged for a few white noodles and a few steamed buns. Even if you sell out your family property, you can't keep your life. Therefore, there are those who sell their children and sell their daughters, those who are starved to death and those who eat their flesh, and even those who eat fathers and sons and eat with mothers and daughters, which are especially cool compared to eating and dissolving bones. From September and October of that year to May and June of the following year, the strong snatched their lives, and the old and weak lost their lives. The roads look at each other, and the starving dead abound. There are more than ten families in one family, and two or three living people; there are more than ten families in one place, and there are eight or nine of them. According to historical records, at that time, Niuzhuang had a total of 172 households, and 1,084 people starved to death, accounting for more than 70% of the total population of the village.
In the face of the inscription of "Ding Ugly Great Wilderness", I understood the principles of "cultivating nine more than three, cultivating three more than one", "taking sufficient food as the priority" and "taking food as the people's heaven". I understood "the importance of grain to a national strategic security," especially in the case of "the United States and the West continue to suppress and contain China, we have to fight back in time" and "so that the soldiers and horses do not move, and the grain and grass go first." Therefore, it is recommended that party, government, and military cadres re-read the "Record of the Great Desolation of Ding Ugly" and always consider the issue of food security.
One is "The Chronicle of the April 9 Massacre".
It was 80 years ago, on May 22, 1942, two traitors came to Niuzhuang to spy on intelligence, and also took the sheep by hand, stole two bags of ordinary people's silver and treasures, and were stopped by Pei Junying, secretary of the underground party branch of Niuzhuang, and Lu Kuiying, the village chief, and went to the road for cross-examination. The traitor pulled out his leg and ran. Pei Junying and Lü Kuiying then chased after them, grabbed one of them, and the other ran to the queen and reported to the Japanese army: "The eighth road of Niuzhuang killed one of our brothers. ”
At dawn the next day (the ninth day of the fourth lunar month), the Japanese army surrounded Niuzhuang, tricked 63 people into the Dongguan of the Japanese army's garrison in Niuzhuang, and pushed 5 people, including Pei Junying, secretary of the underground party branch, and Pei Changsheng, an enlightened gentleman, to the five earth pits that had been dug in advance, and then blindfolded their eyes with a white cloth. At this time, Pei Junying broke his mouth and scolded, and Pei Changsheng also strongly resisted, and also spit on the face of a traitor.
The Japanese army was ashamed and angry, and immediately cut off Pei Changsheng's head with a saber, and the other 4 people were also stabbed to death by bayonets and pushed into the pit.
The crowd present looked at the bloody bayonets and watched their class brethren fall in a pool of blood, and a fire of vengeance was ignited in their hearts.
Lu Xiaochao, a communist, clenched his fists and shouted, "Anyway, it's death, fight!" ”
At this shout, the crowd was enraged, and one by one they clenched their fists and rushed towards the Japanese devils with guns. The leader of the Japanese army then brandished his command knife and ordered, "The people of Niuzhuang are greatly damaged, just like the eight roads, all of them are dead!" ”
In the face of the crowd of people who resisted, the Japanese army rushed to the front of the dug pit, including Lü Xiaochao, Cheng Haohui, Pei Wenxiu, Lü Guanhai, Cheng Jinzhu, Pei Chaowa, Zhou Baocai, Lü Yaoting, and Wang Deshan, Wang Xian, Pei Yanzhang, Pei Chengyi, Zhang Qunwa, Zhang Hewa, Jia Qinxiao, Jia Qinlian, Jia Qinsheng, Cheng Haiming, Cheng Duxiao, Cheng Kuanhai, Jia Changfa, Jia Danwa, Lü Qishan (fourth-grader), Fan Shen, and Wen Jungang, and all the villagers, all of whom were knocked unconscious and killed with rafters, and some stabbed and stabbed to death with bayonets. All of them pushed into the pit and filled it with a thick layer of soil.
The pit was one person deep, more than 10 square meters, and 10 of the 63 people killed by the Japanese army were Communists.
The "April Ninth" massacre shook the earth, and even God cried bitterly for seven days and seven nights. The fleeing masses were unable or afraid to return to the village to collect the bodies of their relatives, causing the corpses to rot to the extreme, and finally had to identify the corpses by the clothes worn by the deceased before they died.
While people were identifying the bodies, the Japanese army returned to Niuzhuang, and the villagers were so frightened that they hid, so that the bodies that came out were piled up on the Dongguan field without being cared for, and many of them were bitten by wild dogs and missed arms and legs, and their tragic situation was unbearable to see.
After the "April 9" massacre of Niuzhuang villagers, most of them hid in the homes of relatives and friends, or dug holes under the high cliffs of neighboring villages to take shelter. It was time to harvest the wheat, and the village was still empty. The leader of the Japanese army, Xingtian, was afraid that he would not be able to send grain in the future, so he asked the "maintenance association" to call the people back. However, before the summer harvest was over, the Japanese army sent 40 large trucks to grab almost all the wheat milled by the people.
Since then, the Japanese army has burned, killed, robbed, and committed adultery, and has done all kinds of evil. According to statistics, the Japanese army has set off eight or nine fires in Niuzhuang, and the large ones have been 3 times, of which the fifth day of the first lunar month in 1941 was the most tragic one: 120 households in the village, except for 5 families whose houses were not burned, the remaining more than 100 households were all burned. In the village, 9 theater stages, 6 large temples, 9 small temples, 4 ancestral halls, and more than 300 houses were all burned. According to incomplete statistics, in just five years, the Japanese army has raided Niuzhuang 27 times, killed more than 90 innocent people, snatched more than 400 heads of livestock, burned and snatched more than 1.8 million catties of grain, burned more than 1,000 houses, and robbed countless property.
As the saying goes, where there is sowing, there is harvest. What is sown is the seed of hatred, and what is harvested is the anti-Japanese flame. Therefore, in May 1943, the Taiyue Tiao West Prefectural Committee of the Communist Party of China announced the establishment of the Jilu County Anti-Japanese County Government and the Jilu County Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Detachment in Niuzhuang. At that time, there were only 800 people in Niuzhuang, 20 Communists, 95 people who joined the anti-Japanese guerrilla detachment, and 18 people who sacrificed their lives for the country and were posthumously martyrs, which verified the truth that "wildfires burn endlessly, and the spring breeze blows again."
To this end, at the beginning of the fourth month of the lunar calendar in 2002, the party branch, the village committee and all the villagers of Jiuniuzhuang Village erected a monument to the April 9 massacre, and the inscription was "Records of the April 9 Massacre". The inscription says, "... In 1942, on the ninth day of the fourth lunar month, after the Japanese army sneaked into the village, it tricked sixty-three young and middle-aged compatriots in our village into the Dongguan wheat field, or stabbed them to death or buried alive, and their atrocities were tragic. My compatriots in distress were scolded in the face of wokou, shouted slogans, jumped off cliffs and fled, feared no violence, and showed noble national integrity. The cycle of the sun and the moon is sixty. For the sake of warning future generations, we will not forget the hatred of the nation, comfort the loyal souls, and make special tree monuments to remember. May the sons and daughters of Niuzhuang carry forward the glorious traditions of the old revolutionary areas, work hard to become stronger, struggle hard, love the party and the country, and revitalize our homeland. ”
Sure enough, Niuzhuang in the old district carried forward the glorious tradition of the old revolutionary area, worked hard, and worked hard to build Niuzhuang into a well-known well-off village, and was also named "Pilot Demonstration Village for Rural Revitalization in Salt Lake District" and "The First Batch of Tourism Poverty Alleviation Demonstration Villages in Shanxi Province".
One is the Monument to the Revolutionary Martyrs.
On this monument are inscribed 18 martyrs, including Chen Zhenxiong, Han Qinggui, Lu Keshan, Lü Qishui, Lü Wenjie, Lü Yankui, Lü Yinyu, Lü Zhixuan, Lü Zhiyi, Lü Zizhong, Pei Duokai, Pei Guisheng, Pei Kangmin, Pei Qi, Pei Wen'an, Wang Fude, Yu Tiancai, and Cheng Zirong. The enlistment time of each martyr and the glorious sacrifice of what happened in that place should be clearly inscribed, so that the heroic deeds of these 18 martyrs who sacrificed for the people will be recorded in the annals of history forever, and the descendants of Niuzhuang can take up the revolutionary baton and build our great motherland into a modern socialist power.
When I left Niuzhuang, I still remembered the passage in front of the inscription: "Recalling the past, China was bullied by the great powers, and hundreds of millions of people struggled in the depths of the waters." The Communist Party of China has swept away the dark clouds and haze, insulted foreign countries to eliminate internal troubles, saved the people and saved the country, and raised the red flag high. Niuzhuang's enthusiastic young people enthusiastically joined the army, fought bloody battles, created base areas, and swept away the Japanese and stubborn. Successively, there are nearly 100 workers in various departments of our party, government and army, including eighteen martyrs who have sacrificed their lives for the country, and now they are prosperous and prosperous, and the country is safe and secure. The living should drink water and think of the source, remember the martyrs, inherit the legacy, and build a better home. ”
This is like a "motto", which will always inspire the people of Niuzhuang to move forward!
To this end, it is recommended that all village "two committees" build a "revolutionary monument" in their own villages.
