Everyone knows that there is one in "Red Rock"
Two-gun old lady
(The prototype of Chen Lianshi of the HuayingShan guerrillas), but do you know that Zhao Hongwenguo, the "mother of the guerrillas" who made the Japanese army feel frightened, is also known as a two-gun old woman?
This two-gun old woman made an outstanding contribution to the War of Resistance Against Japan, however
In the end, he was sentenced to death
。
So what evil thing did an anti-Japanese hero do to be shot? Today we will take a look at the "mother of guerrillas"
Zhao Hongwenguo's merits were clearly distinguished in his life
First, do our best to resist Japan and save the country
Zhao Hongwenguo's original name was Hong Wenguo
Because her husband's surname is Zhao, he is famous for Zhao Hongwenguo. She is a native of Hongqigou Township, Xiuyan County, Liaoning Province, a descendant of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, without foot binding, and her body is considered strong compared with ordinary women, so even if she is nearly old, she is also extraordinary and moves freely.
In 1895, when she was only fourteen years old, she saw it with her own eyes
Japan's Atrocities against the Three Northeastern Provinces (Sino-Japanese War)
afterwards
He also experienced the Russo-Japanese War
Therefore, the hatred for the foreign invaders in his heart was deep and deeply resentful, and he established a deep patriotic feeling in his heart at a young age.
After she was able, she began to organize schools to help local children learn knowledge and tell them to be a Chinese with ideals and integrity.
After the "918 Incident", she took off her cheongsam and wore a blue horse coat at the age of nearly fifty to help her third son, Zhao Dong, who had just returned from school, organize an anti-Japanese volunteer army.
Because she already hated the Japanese in her heart, she was very supportive of her son's choice and practice, not only treating all the family's property as the funds of the volunteer army, but also using her family as a site for the anti-Japanese volunteer army, and at the same time calling on the whole family to serve the volunteer army together.
In addition, the previous elementary school, with the help of Zhao Tong, insisted on resisting Japan's slave education and resolutely did not become a slave to the country. This primary school also became the anti-Japanese vanguard of the volunteer army.
In 1934, with the help of Zhao Hongwenguo, Zhao Tong and his classmate Miao Kexiu formed the "Young Iron Blood Army". In order for the team to survive, she sold her property, bought weapons and equipment, and ventured to collect intelligence on the Japanese army.
With her efforts, the team gradually grew, and finally reached more than 500 people.
In February of the same year, the Japanese army investigated and learned that the pillar of the Predator Army was Zhao Hongwenguo's family, so
Someone sent someone to burn down the property and family property they had accumulated
。 This practice of the Japanese army not only did not deter Zhao Hongguowen, but also
Intensified the hatred within her.
After this incident, Zhao Hongwenguo more actively resisted the Japanese army, and also actively publicized the anti-Japanese resistance, which made the Japanese army very nervous. In August, the Japanese army arrested the Zhao family and put them in prison. In prison, she was soft and hard, and the Japanese army wanted to execute her in a fit of rage. Fortunately, she was more resourceful and escaped with the Predator.
After escaping, she took her family to Beiping to continue her anti-Japanese cause and raise armaments for the Predator Army. Moreover, as a woman who is nearly half a hundred years old, Zhao Hongwenguo is not satisfied with supporting the anti-Japanese resistance in the rear, she also wants to go on the battlefield to kill the enemy.
Therefore, in the gap between gathering intelligence and providing armaments, she began to practice marksmanship with the help of her son Zhao Dong, day after day. It may be talented, plus willing to endure hardships and hard work,
Zhao Hongwenguo soon learned to use a gun with both hands, and it was almost a hundred shots.
After learning, she followed her son's "predatory army" to the battlefield.
When she encountered the Japanese army, she opened the bow left and right, and soon the folk had her legend and gave it to her
"The Old Lady with Two Guns"
The title.
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, Zhao Hongwenguo and her son Zhao Dong established the "
North China National Anti-Japanese Army"
，
Becoming a model of resistance against Japan by the people of North China not only rescued thousands of prisoners in the Second Model Prison in Peiping, including many famous Communist Party leaders, but also shot down a Japanese plane.
After that, the major media also rushed to report on her incident, and she was also famous at home and abroad. Mr. Peng and Mr. Zhu personally wrote to invite them to join us and organize their troops into the Fifth Detachment of the Jin-Cha-Ji Army of the Eighth Group Army, with Zhao Dong as commander.
In 1938, Zhao Dong broke away from the Eighth Route Army and went to Hong Kong. In the spring of the following year, Lao Jiang invited Zhao Tong to Chongqing. On the way north with Zhao Dong's troops, they were surrounded and annihilated by the troops led by General He and Marshal Nie, and Zhao Dong's troops were completely destroyed.
Zhao Tong also died here at the age of 28.
This may also be one of the main reasons why Zhao Hongwenguo did not join our party and insisted on fighting with our party.
Second, the opposite is reversed, and the hero is no longer
Hearing that her sons and daughters were gone, although Zhao Hongwenguo was sad in her heart, she still actively resisted Japan and sent her remaining children to the military academy for training in preparation for the reorganization of the Anti-Japanese Army in North China.
In 1940, Zhao Hongwenguo arrived in Chongqing. The responsible person of our party warmly received her, which worried the old Chiang Kai-shek, who had always regarded our party as a thorn in his eye, after all, Zhao Hongwenguo was an extremely influential figure in the anti-Japanese contingent.
Therefore, old Jiang also rushed to meet Zhao Hongwenguo, took a group photo together, and personally wrote a "mother of guerrillas" to give to show his attention. At the same time, he also let His wife Song Meiling knock on the side of the side and help the waves.
As a woman, Song Meiling often talked about her family with Zhao Hongwenguo, and also called her "the mother of the nation" and "the model of women in the country", and even said that she was a contemporary mother-in-law and a Meng mother. In the face of these accolades,
Zhao Hongwenguo was very useful, and coupled with the death of her son, her relationship with our party was already not good, so this laid the foundation for her to join the camp of old Chiang Kai-shek.
Third, female bandits who arouse the indignation of the people
In 1945, the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression ended with the surrender of the Japanese army, because her husband and children died one after another, Zhao Hongwenguo resigned all the positions given to her by the old Chiang Kai-shek, and resolutely abandoned the military to engage in business.
If she had gone into business safely and steadily, perhaps none of the subsequent events would have happened, but things would never have been smooth sailing.
During the Liberation War, entrusted by the old Chiang Kai-shek, Zhao Hongwenguo, who was nearly ancient, resolutely went south. Just when she was planning to do a big job, the news of Song Xilian's defeat reached her ears.
I thought she would give up, but instead she took up the post of "presidential palace guard" and shouted out the slogan of "driving out the Communist Party and not paying grain for three years." In the face of our party's strong offensive, she rolled up dozens of bank funds and headed north.
Our army originally remembered that she had made meritorious contributions to the anti-Japanese resistance and did not embarrass her. But she was not ashamed (hù è bù quān) and took her men to defect to the Kuomintang Sixteenth Corps. However, at that time, the Sixteenth Corps was preparing to revolt and surrender, and when he saw her coming, Dong Songheng, the commander of the corps, said to her in a serious tone:
"Now that the nationalist army is already a turtle in an urn, there is no use in resisting, so let's bow to them together."
Who knew that Zhao Hongwenguo not only did not listen, but also scolded:
"The chairman of the committee is so good to me, what is needed at this time is when we bow down to the best of our ability, how can we instigate it before we have fought?" Surrender yourself, don't pull me in. ”
In the days that followed, Zhao Hongwenguo went around preaching the benefits of Lao Jiang within the Sixteenth Regiment, inciting the emotions of the Sixteenth Regiment, and finally she really moved a large number of people.
On that day, our army sent representatives to receive the Sixteenth Regiment, but Zhao Hongwenguo suddenly launched a rebellion and beheaded the representatives of our army. nevertheless
Our army still gave her a chance
Soon after, two more comrades of our army went deep alone to propagate our army's policies, and ventured to meet Zhao Hongwenguo, hoping that she could lay down her arms and live up to the reputation she had bought with her life.
However, Zhao Hongwenguo was already on the verge of falling into a rage at this time, and he paid no attention to the words of our comrades, and swore to heaven:
"Chairman Jiang, who knows me, you are 'picking up lights and setting fires and tempting Zhongliang.'"
After the Sixteenth Regiment was incorporated, Zhao Hongwenguo saw that there was no way,
He fled to Shifang County with his men, where he mingled with the local bandit bully Ma Julin, robbing homes and killing innocents indiscriminately.
After the Longtan Temple massacre, the whole country was shocked, and Chairman Mao was also very angry, and without hesitation, he issued the first town counter-order since the founding of New China. When an order is given,
Zhao Hongwenguo is busy robbing houses, and in Shifang, she carries her trademark double gun everywhere to kill and loot, and constantly incites and seduces others.
Under her deliberate manipulation, more than 4,000 ill-intentioned people defected to her. Now that someone has a gun, Zhao Hongguowen wants to capture Shifang County and occupy one side. Under her coercion and inducement, coercion, Shifang County and more than 20 surrounding counties, bandits, and remnants of the Nationalist army have defected, and the momentum has been great for a time.
The team reached 20,000 people.
Although there were a large number of bandits, they had not undergone systematic training, and in the face of our army's hard resistance, a large number of bandits were frightened by our army and fled in a hurry. In the process of escaping, Zhao Hongwenguo still said arrogantly:
"Let me go, I'm going to fight the Communist Party."
The first attack on Shifang County, Zhao Hongwenguo was defeated, and later she reflected on her own shortcomings and the shortcomings of the team, launched a systematic training, and told her subordinates: "When the other side fires, we will lie down, we must not stray, then the casualties will be greater." We take the flag as the symbol, raise the flag and we attack, and when we put the flag down, we lie down. ”
On February 11, 1950, Zhao Hongwenguo once again led the bandit army to launch an attack on Shifang County, and the vanguard army did not survive a round, and was defeated and retreated by our army. Then Zhao Hongwenguo led a large army to the county seat, surrounded the outer regiments, and our army could only defend.
Our army placed machine guns on the city walls, and under the fire of our army, the bandits suffered heavy casualties. Zhao Hongwenguo saw that the direct attack had no effect, and also dug tunnels in an attempt to blow up the city wall, but ah, even the heavens did not stand on her side, and when she dug the tunnels, there was a sudden torrential rain, and the tunnels that had just been dug were also destroyed.
Zhao Hongwenguo, who was angry and demoralized, planned to break the net and use the tactics of the sea of people to attack the county town, but the firepower of our army was very fierce, and the bandits had no chance at all, and they all thought of fleeing, but the bandit leader Wang Santai threatened them not to retreat. He also shot at the fleeing bandits, and for a time, his own corpses were scattered all over the field.
When Zhao Hongwenguo saw such a battle situation, he even sighed: "This is all fate, Providence is difficult to violate!" She then retreated from her headquarters and fled into the mountains. In order to win people's hearts, she also shot Wang Santai to death under the pretext of Tonggong.
Zhao Hongwenguo fled all the way, but what she had done in the past five months had made the surrounding residents hate it to the bone. So the residents actively helped our army to pursue her. After a period of hunting, Zhao Hongwenguo and her son and son-in-law were captured.
At this point, the rebellion of Zhao Hongwenguo, which had been raging for five months, was thus quelled
。 Zhao Hongwenguo, who was arrested, refused to surrender, did not admit his mistake, or was extremely arrogant. But even so,
The chairman and Premier Zhou also hoped to keep her alive.
However, the families of many victims collectively petitioned in the hope of severely punishing Zhao Hongwenguo. Our party is the people's party, and Zhao Hongwenguo's killing of innocent people is no longer as simple as a civil war, so
Under comprehensive consideration, Zhao Hongwenguo was sentenced to death. Chairman Mao instructed: We must treat her family members kindly.
On July 16, 1950, Zhao Hongwenguo and her son Zhao Lianzhong were executed by firing squad.
It is true that Zhao Hongwenguo is a national hero, but
From national heroes to female bandits who are crusading by thousands of people
, and it was just a thought on her part. She was once praised by the people as a "two-gun old woman", but in the end she went to the opposite side of the people, and the late festival was not guaranteed.
It also really confirms the sentence "Hero I, confused for a while". We should not forget Zhao Hongwenguo's great deeds and anti-Japanese achievements, but we cannot forgive those who were hurt by her later. So the mistakes she made needed to bear the consequences herself.
We who live in a peaceful and prosperous world must also adhere to the correct choice in our hearts, and only with light in our hearts can we go farther and farther.
