"He Jinnian, good looks, the famous general of the bandits is not a waste of time!"
Looking at the two telegrams in his hand, the chairman could not help but praise. The two telegrams, one from Siye, contained a report on the suppression of bandits in Jiangxi by the 48th Army, and the other was sent by Chen Zhengren, secretary of the Jiangxi Provincial CPC Committee.
In both telegrams, the same thing is mentioned: Xiao Jiabi has been captured alive and awaiting trial by the people.
"After 20 years, this land snake on the east side of Jinggang Mountain has finally been caught, is the one in the west still there?"
The chairman, who was in a good mood, immediately thought of another person, because he and Xiao Jiabi, known by the chairman as "the two earth head snakes of Jinggangshan", made up their minds to kill them 20 years ago, and the results changed, until now they have only captured one alive.
Thinking of this, the chairman put up a pen and gave instructions on Chen Zhengren's telegram asking for instructions to deal with Xiao Jiabi: "Public trial, shooting!" ”
Then, he personally drafted a telegram and sent it to the Hunan Provincial Party Committee: "Immediately find out whether Chaling Luo Keshao is still there." If so, arrest expeditiously. ”
Xiao Jiabi and Luo Keshao, who also let the chairman "worry" for 20 years?
Regarding these two people, the chairman said the following words at the Second Congress of the Xianggan Border Party Committee held in October 1928:
"There are two earth-headed snakes in JinggangShan, Xiao Jiabi in the east, and Luo Keshao in the northwest.
Public Trial Conference
Xiao Jiabi is a person
Xiao Jiabi, who was called by the chairman as the "earth head snake on the east side of Jinggang Mountain", was born in Suichuan County, Jiangxi Province, and was born into a family of wealthy merchants. After graduating from Suichuan Higher School, he studied at the Nanchang Law and Politics College, and in that era, he was considered a high-level intellectual.
However, Xiao Jiabi had never learned anything about Xiu Qi Zhiping, and since he was a child, he was a clumsy boy who was rich and unkind, fighting and fighting, bullying men and women, and doing no evil.
With his family background, he colluded with the government and became the leader of the vigilante group. In the 1920s, it became a local hegemon in Suichuan. At the time of the Mar-Japan Incident, he led a vigilante group and hunted down the Communists. Chen Zhengren, whom we mentioned above, was also on his list of arrests and kills, and was spared due to the timely retreat.
In September 1927, after the failure of the Autumn Harvest Uprising led by the Chairman, after the reorganization of Sanwan, it was decided to abandon the plan to attack Changsha, march to Jinggangshan, and establish a base area in the Jinggangshan area.
At this time, Xiao Jiabi was the commander of the Suichuan County Jingwei Regiment, and the arrival of the team of the Autumn Harvest Uprising at Jinggangshan would undoubtedly offend his interests, which made him very panicked.
When he learned that the rebels were going through Dafen, he personally led more than 500 people to set up an ambush in Dafen. The rebels rushed into battle and suffered heavy losses.
Since then, the chairman has decided to eliminate the Jingwei Regiment and suppress Xiao Jiabi. However, at that time, the revolutionary armed forces were weak, and Xiao Jiabi was supported by Zhu Peide, and although he fought several battles, he finally failed to do so.
In January 1929, Jinggangshan was divided, and the chairman led the troops to leave Jinggangshan. It was Xiao Jiabi's Jingwei regiment, taking advantage of the familiar terrain, to cut a small road to attack Jinggangshan, and the Red Army that remained behind was forced to withdraw.
He Jinnian, a famous general of the bandits
After that, Xiao Jiabi took frantic revenge on the masses in the Jinggangshan base area and carried out a brutal and inhumane purge, "killing one in three days and burning in five days," committing numerous crimes. More than 2,000 cadres and people were killed by Xiao Jiabi, and more than 5,000 houses were burned, leaving countless people displaced and homeless.
Locals angrily call Xiao Jiabi "Xiao Butcher", which shows how heinous the evil has gone.
How could the chairman forget such a villain, and how could he let it go!
In September 1949, the People's Liberation Army crossed the Yangtze River and the liberation of Jiangxi was imminent. At this time, Xiao Jiabi, who was appointed by the Kuomintang as the commander of the first anti-communist column in Suibei, continued to oppose the people and struggle to the death.
At this time, the 48th Army led by He Jinnian was ordered to suppress the bandits. The Chairman specifically instructed that Xiao Jiabi must be captured alive. After that, Chen Zhengren went to Jiangxi to take up the post of secretary of the provincial party committee, and the chairman again instructed him that Xiao Jiabi must be captured alive and handed over to the people for trial.
He Jinnian gave the task of suppressing Xiao Jiabi's bandits to the 425th Regiment of the 142nd Division. The predecessor of this 425 regiment was the 31st Regiment of the Red Fourth Army during the Jinggangshan period, which fought with Xiao Jiabi many times in that year. Now, the time has come for a complete reckoning.
Under the powerful offensive of the People's Liberation Army, Xiao Jiabi's bandits laid down their weapons one after another and abandoned the dark to the light. Xiao Jiabi, like a dog that lost his family, fled with more than 20 diehards into the deep mountains and old forests in an attempt to survive.
However, if the 425 regiment can tolerate the existence of such a tumor! The regimental commander Wang Xing personally deployed, formed 5 assault groups, went deep into the deep mountains and dense forests, and with the support and cooperation of the masses, finally captured Xiao Jiabi alive in the lake pit.
On November 11, 1949, Suichuan County held a public trial meeting, and Xiao Jiabi, who was full of evil, was shot on the spot.
Mobilize the masses to look for clues
Roxauchi
There are many similarities between Roxaw and Xiao Jiabi's lineage.
He is a Chaling man on the border of Xianggan and Gansu, and he is also from a wealthy family and has studied private school for several years. His father was not only a large landowner, but also the patriarch of the Roche family.
When he was a teenager, Roxho ate, drank, gambled, and ran amok in the countryside, and was a notorious idiot. Like Xiao Jiabi, he also pulled up the vigilante group during the Ma Ri Incident, but his team was called the Volunteer Brigade, and he served as the captain.
Later, Roxaw succeeded him as the head of the family, buying guns and ammunition in large quantities to expand the ranks. Having made friends with the official government, this stupid boy actually became the commander-in-chief of the defense of Chaling, Shuxian and Ninggang counties.
Roxau and the chairman's autumn harvest uprising team also formed a grudge after the reorganization of the three bays, and that time, it was this Roxho who fell into a dangerous situation and almost destroyed the autumn harvest uprising team.
As we all know, when sanwan was reorganized, the chairman downsized the troops into one regiment, that is, the first regiment of the first division of the first army of the workers' and peasants' revolutionary army. The former military commander Yu Shandu resigned, and Chen Hao, a student of the first term of Huangpu, was appointed as the head of the regiment.
The downsizing to one regiment was not a full formation, there were only two battalions, the commander of the 1st battalion was Huang Ziji, the commander of the 3rd battalion was Zhang Ziqing, and there was no 2nd battalion.
Shortly after the reorganization of Sanwan, the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army engaged in a fierce battle at Chaling County, where the Kuomintang troops who had come to besiege the city and Xiao Jiabi's Jingwei Regiment were outnumbered and withdrew from Chaling County.
Chen Hao
At this time, there was a serious defection incident, because the person who wanted to pull away the team to defect to the enemy was the regiment leader Chen Hao.
He conspired with Xu Shu, deputy commander of the regiment, and Huang Ziji, commander of the 1st Battalion, to take the regimental headquarters and the first battalion to defect to Fang Dingying, commander of the Kuomintang 13th Army. When he was at the Whampoa Military Academy, he and Fang Dingying were teacher-student relations.
At that time, Zhang Ziqing's third battalion was scattered and his whereabouts were unknown, and if one battalion surrendered to the enemy, this contingent would be finished.
At that time, the chairman only had part of Yuan Wencai's team in his hands, and after receiving the report of Wan Xixian, a party representative of the first battalion, the chairman immediately led the team to cut a small road and rushed to the regimental headquarters.
However, when the chairman rushed to the mouth of the lake, he encountered a strong resistance from a team and could not get over it.
At this time, it was already extremely critical, and if it was blocked here and could not catch up with the regimental headquarters and the first battalion, the consequences would be unimaginable. At this time, the leader of the team that strongly prevented the chairman was Roxho.
"Roxho is going to spoil me a big deal!" The chairman was very anxious, and he immediately ordered Yuan Wencai and Chen Bojun to attack from the left and right sides of the mountain to cover their own crossing of the river.
At this time, the chairman, with only a few soldiers, came to the mouth of the river, rode on the top of the mountain and was fighting fiercely, and secretly crossed the river. Rao, still spotted by Roxau's defense team, shot at the chairman's boat crossing the river, but thanks to the skilled boatman, rowed quickly and ventured to the opposite shore.
After landing ashore, the chairman did not dare to stay for a moment, and even so, after reaching the regimental headquarters, he still pounced, and the team was already pulled out. The chairman immediately sent someone to inquire, learned where the team was going, quickly caught up with the team, and with the support of Wan Xixian and others, brought back the team.
The name Luo Keshao was remembered in the mind of the chairman, and the next year, there was another "Yaoshui Massacre", and Luo Keshao learned that the Yaoshui District Workers' and Peasants' Government had held a meeting and led the team to sneak attack, resulting in the death of 18 cadres, including Yin Zibin, the captain of the District Self-Defense Force.
What made the chairman hate even more was that later, Luo Keshao was caught by Yuan Wencai, because Yuan Wencai wanted to get Luo Keshao's arsenal and negotiated with Luo Keshao. Luo Keshao's family took advantage of this opportunity to use counter-plots, which led to the then Xianggan Border Special Committee mistakenly killing the chairman's two members, Yuan Wencai and Wang Zuo.
This time, Xiao Jiabi was captured, and the chairman naturally thought of Roxhao, who was also full of evil.
After receiving the chairman's telegram, the Hunan Provincial CPC Committee immediately organized a special case group to cooperate closely with the Chaling County Public Security Bureau to conduct the investigation.
At this time, Roxau had disbanded the team, donated the family's money, transformed into an enlightened gentry, and became the principal of a primary school. He lived in a remote village and tried to escape the reckoning of the people.
The rumors of the investigation still reached Roxaw's ears, and he was terrified that he knew that he had committed the most heinous crimes and that once he was found, he would undoubtedly die.
After much thought, he came up with a plan to cheat his death. He hid in a cave on the mountain while his family went on a funeral. The surrounding townships and neighbors all knew that Principal Luo was dead.
However, this plan was discovered by the public security officers who came to investigate, and they dug up Roxau's grave, which was indeed an empty grave. The police were silent and sent people to keep a close eye on his family, and finally learned that Roxaw was hiding in a cave on the mountain.
One day, when his family brought him food, Roxau was represented on the spot, and he was already 75 years old.
On February 10, 1951, Roxho was sentenced to death by the Hunan Provincial High People's Court, ending his sinful life.
At this point, the two evil land snakes in the Jinggangshan area finally got the punishment they deserved.
Justice will only be late, never absent!
