The story of "Little Soldier Zhang Ga" can now be said to be a household name, and women and children are well known!
As a "young hero" during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the small soldier Zhang Ga was brave and fearless, fighting wits and courage with the Japanese Kou, leaving behind many stories of the popular population.
But do you know that in the real anti-Japanese battlefield, there is also such a young hero, who learned Japanese at an early age, took a Japanese name, became an undercover at the age of 13, and broke into the Japanese army alone to spy on the enemy.
For several years, he endured humiliation and burdens, and fought silently among the enemy until after the victory of the War of Resistance, when he changed from a "traitor" to an "anti-Japanese hero."
This young hero is - Chen Minxue!
Chen Minxue was born in 1930 in an ordinary family in Yewu Village, Dongmen Old Street, Shenzhen.
In 1940, the iron hooves of the Japanese invading army entered South China, and Shenzhen bore the brunt of it, becoming one of the first areas occupied by the Japanese army.
After the Japanese army occupied Shenzhen and other areas, it began to implement the so-called "enslavement policy" for local children.
This was one of the policies of Japanese imperialism to invade China during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the purpose of which was to consolidate its colonial rule in the areas occupied by military violence.
In addition to burning our national classics and massacring and imprisoning patriotic cultural people, intellectuals and young students, they also forcibly promoted Japanese language teaching and forced local children to learn Japanese and accept fascist culture.
Whenever these atrocities were strongly resisted by the common people, the Japanese army would adopt a policy of "big sticks and bananas".
That is, if they refused to study, they would be killed; if they were willing to learn, each child could receive some rice from the Japanese army every day.
At that time, China was in a period of frequent wars, coupled with the wanton plundering of the Japanese invaders, resulting in an extreme shortage of domestic materials and a lack of livelihood for the people.
For the people living at the bottom, they can only rely on bran, wild vegetables, bark, and grass roots to feed themselves every day, and many people in Chen Minxue's village have been starved to death.
In order to survive, many people can only choose to let their children learn Japanese, and Chen Minxue, who is only 10 years old, is one of them.
Although the young Chen Minxue was very disgusted with the Japanese invaders, he also knew very well in his heart that he was still very weak and weak, and he was simply unable to confront the enemy head-on, and that the most urgent task now was to learn his skills well and create conditions for future resistance.
As a result, Chen Minxue studied Japanese for two years in the Japanese language class run by the Japanese army.
During this period, although he was "respectful and respectful" to the Japanese, in his heart, the belief of resistance was always there.
Chen Minxue was talented and intelligent, and his Japanese language level improved rapidly, and in order to make the Japanese trust him more, he also gave himself a Japanese name, so that the Japanese still felt that this child would be able to serve them well in the future.
However, although Chen Minxue's "obedience" won the trust of the Japanese, the people around him expressed shame on his behavior, calling him a "traitor and traitor", and even saying that at a young age, he actually learned to bow his knees and flatter and win favors, which was really "disgusting"...
In short, at that time, there was everything to say!
Every time he heard these words, Chen Minxue was very sad in his heart, after all, as a dignified Chinese, who could allow others to scold him like this?
But Chen Minxue did not defend himself, because he knew that everything he was doing now was for the sake of "resistance" in the future.
In 1943, Chen Minxue, who was not willing to be a slave to the country, joined the "Dongjiang Column" and officially began his revolutionary career from the age of 13!
The "Dongjiang Column" mentioned here, fully known as the 'Guangdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Brigade Dongjiang Column', was a people's anti-Japanese armed force created and led by our Party in the Dongjiang area of Guangdong during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and its commander was General Zeng Sheng (Founding Major General).
On that day, we were in the third stage of the War of Resistance Against Japan, that is, the "stage of strategic counter-offensive," and the struggle between the enemy and us was extremely fierce, and it was urgent to grasp the internal situation of the enemy in order to provide favorable conditions for the future all-front counteroffensive.
Chen Minxue, who had just joined the ranks of the revolutionary struggle, because he knew Japanese and was still young, it was not easy to arouse the suspicion of the enemy, so he thought twice about it organizationally and decided to send him to infiltrate the Japanese army and spy on the enemy.
With the previous study "resume", Chen Minxue soon became a "translation officer" of the Japanese army, showing obedience on the surface, but working for the revolution behind his back.
During his internal work in the Japanese army, he infiltrated the enemy's camp many times to inquire into the enemy's military deployment, combat action plan, and so on, and timely fed back this information to the troops, so that our army could know itself and know the other, wait for the opportunity to take the initiative to attack, and fight against the Japanese.
In addition, Chen Minxue often stole some guns, ammunition, medicines, and other military supplies from the Japanese military camps to supply to the guerrillas, and carried out active counter-offensive activities in the puppet army.
But we also know that carrying out intelligence activities in the Japanese army is facing a severe test of life and death at every moment, and if you are not careful, you will be detected by the Japanese army and finally sentenced to capital punishment.
For example, one day, while passing on urgent information to the guerrillas, he was accidentally caught and imprisoned by a small detachment of the Japanese army, and was in danger of being shot at any time.
At this time, he heard a small leader of the Japanese army consulting with other Japanese soldiers and preparing to put him on the spot.
After Chen Minxue listened, he couldn't help but be shocked into a cold sweat!
Accustomed to life and death, he was not afraid of being killed, but he was worried that after his death, there would be no one to take over his work, so that it would be difficult for the guerrillas to obtain information about the enemy army!
He calmed down, thought about it for a while, and suddenly had a clever move, and argued in a loud voice in Japanese:
"Don't be fooled, I'm an interpreter at the xxx unit headquarters of the dispatch army, and I was mistakenly caught by you while on a mission, see how you killed me and how to explain to my superiors..."
The small leader of the Japanese army was indeed frightened by Chen Minxue's words!
After all, Chen Minxue could understand what they were saying, and he could accurately say his troops, so he believed it, hurried forward to inquire about the situation, and then released him!
Later, when Chen Minxue recalled the incident, he said: That time it was really a death escape, and a Japanese army's Oriental knife was mounted on his neck, and when he clicked, his head had to move.
Chen Minxue also said: At that time, I thought to myself:
"If you die today, you will be generous and righteous, kill yourself to become a benevolent person, worthy of the people, worthy of the party." Fortunately, the day of escape, the gentleman's revenge is not too late for ten years, and one day you have to take care of your old nest. ”
In the face of the threat of death, Chen Minxue did not flinch in the slightest, but always remained calm and fought against the enemy, this spirit is indeed admirable!
In August 1945, after Japan announced its unconditional surrender, Chen Minxue was ordered to return to work.
The next year, Chen Minxue suddenly fell ill with a serious illness, and the leader specially approved him a month's leave to let him go home for treatment.
Soon after, the Dongjiang Column was ordered to retreat north, and at that time there were more than 10,000 troops in the whole army, but only more than 2,000 people could go north, and the other personnel could only find their own way out and hide and stand by.
Because Chen Minxue was only 15 years old at the time and his physical condition was not very good, the troops did not arrange for him to go north.
In the end, Chen Minxue had to leave his hometown to study English at the Culture University of Hong Kong, where he developed his interest in photography.
After the liberation of the country, Chen Minxue returned to Shenzhen and worked in a state-run photo studio until his retirement in 1990.
Although Chen Minxue is a veritable "anti-Japanese hero", his life over the years has not been satisfactory!
In the successive movements after liberation, his glorious deeds were described as "sins", and some people also called him a "traitor" and a "spy".
This black cauldron, a back is more than 30 years!
However, during this period, Chen Minxue never defended himself, because he always firmly believed that history is fair and the party and the state will certainly prove his innocence, as he said:
"My life was a bumpy and tortuous life, and I was able to live to this day because of the belief of the party. Although I have been wronged and wronged for more than 30 years, I firmly believe that the party will one day get the facts out and return me to an innocent body..."
In 1986, Chen Minxue finally returned to his innocence! But at this time, his heart was still very calm, because he knew that this was sooner or later.
It is worth mentioning that although Chen Minxue joined the Dongjiang Column led by the Communist Party at the age of 13, he never joined the Communist Party.
Of course, this is not for any other reason, mainly because he "got it wrong"!
At that time, he thought that joining the guerrillas was equivalent to joining the Communist Party, so he always regarded himself as a member of the Chinese Communist Party.
Later, he learned that if he wanted to become a member of the Communist Party, he had to apply, complete the formalities, and after being approved, he could join the Party.
So it wasn't until 1988 that Chen Minxue officially joined the Communist Party of China and became a glorious Communist Party member.
At this time, Chen Minxue was already nearly sixty years old!
Despite this, Chen Laoxiong still showed great open-mindedness, saying: "Although he has been wronged for 30 years, he has never lost confidence in the Communist Party. ”
As an old guerrilla fighter and anti-Japanese hero, although Chen Minxue was old and could have enjoyed his old age at home, he was still brave, and on the unnamed public security front, the old hero was busy all day and made many military achievements.
In 1990, after the old hero left, Chen Minxue served as a director of the Shenzhen Dongzhong Friendship Association, responsible for the work of the Hong Kong Ninth Brigade Branch of the Guangzhou Area Veteran Guerrillas Association, in addition, he was also a clean government supervisor of the Municipal Bureau of Industry and Commerce and the residential police station.
Chen Lao hero, who has a multi-tasking job, has never felt tired, on the contrary, such a busy and fulfilling life makes him happy.
In fact, at that time, there were also relevant units that hired him with "high salaries", but he refused and volunteered to be a volunteer security officer to protect the safety of the people in the social security bureau.
Chen Minxue was not tall and his body was relatively thin, but he had learned martial arts since childhood, practiced well in fists and feet, and although he was over sixty years old at the time, he was still in good health.
One night in 1994, when Chen Minxue was patrolling the community, he suddenly found two suspicious-looking men crouching in front of him.
Chen Minxue was just about to go forward for interrogation, and found that not far in front of him, there was a man riding a motorcycle in a hurry, and another person pushing a motorcycle to follow closely, and the two looked nervous.
As soon as Chen Minxue saw it, he immediately became alert, suspecting that this gang should be a car thief, and the two people crouching were looking at the wind.
Chen Minxue did not disturb, but quietly walked forward.
At this time, the two squatting people saw that someone was coming, pulled out their legs and ran, Chen Minxue quickly shouted: "Stop! ”
Then he rushed to the cyclist, blocked his way, and frightened the two car thieves to quickly push the motorcycle to the road, and fled in a hurry!
On another occasion, a gangster snatched a passerby's handbag and was chased down a street by a vigilante.
However, because the gangster was tall and tall, and he was holding a pig-killing knife in his hand, the sheriff failed to subdue him.
After Chen Minxue heard the news, he quickly ran from home, and when he saw the fierce gangsters, Chen Minxue was not afraid at all, he shouted loudly and asked him to throw the knife on the ground.
But where the gangsters were willing to listen, with their own advantages and the weapons in their hands, they roared madly: "If you dare to come over, I will kill you first!" ”
I think that when Ri Kou put the sword on Chen Minxue's neck, he had never been afraid, let alone this small pig-killing knife.
After the gangster finished speaking, he raised his knife and threw himself at Chen Minxue, but Chen Minxue not only did not hide, but also shouted: "Good to come!" Then he fought the enemy!
Although Chen Minxue is short, we also said that he has learned martial arts since he was a child, so in the fight, he not only did not suffer losses, but instead subdued the gangsters with three fists and two feet.
Later, Chen Minxue was also awarded the glorious titles of "Public Security Outside the Organization" and "Brave Fighter" by Shenzhen Municipality.
Since Chen Minxue left his retirement, he has been continuously rated as an excellent party member by the original unit, and his family has also become a model of civilization in the city.
In 1997, the Shenzhen Municipal Government awarded him the glorious title of "Civilized Citizen of Shenzhen" and was once cordially received by the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and the Mayor.
No matter where he is or what position he holds, Chen Minxue has always set strict demands on himself according to the standards of a Communist Party member and fulfilled his responsibilities and obligations as a Communist Party member with his own practical actions.
Look, this is the hero of our republic!
On the battlefield, they are brave and fearless, which frightens the enemy; in their work, they work hard and never consider personal gains and losses; in life, they are modest and cautious, silently serving the people.
So it's still the same sentence: where there are good years, it's just someone carrying the weight for us!
At the end of the article, let us pay the highest respect to chen Minxue, the "hero of the anti-Japanese resistance"!
