Beijing, 30 Jun (Xinhua) -- On 30 June, the Xinhua Daily Telegraph published a report entitled "Drums of War Chasing wind and waves, Blue Seas Seeking Dan Heart -- Exploring the Century-Old Red Imprint of Gulangyu Island."
Early summer of 2021, Gulangyu Island. Under the dazzling sun, surrounded by green trees and red flowers, there are many old bungalows with a variety of trendy shops.
At the pier, a double-decker white ferry crosses the Lu River from Xiamen Island. The boats came down with a variety of men, women and children; looking at the packing, most of them were tourists. There was an old man in the crowd, who seemed no different from other tourists. People around him did not know that this old Gulangyu man named Lin Mingli had recently returned to his hometown frequently in order to investigate the island's revolutionary history more deeply.
Back in time, 91 years ago, Gulangyu Island, which had been reduced to a public concession for more than 20 years, was already lined with villas.
It was also on a hot southern summer day, not far from the old road not far from the current pier, that a small wooden sampan docked. A businessman dressed as a Chinese disembarked from the ship and looked around alertly, and this "businessman" seemed to be nothing special. The people around him did not know that he was going to No. 8 Tiger Lane in the middle of the island, the seat of the Fujian Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China at that time, and he had a hidden identity - a member of the Chinese Communist Party.
The sky is windy and the waves, and the seas and mountains are clear.
Gulangyu Island, the "hidden corner" in the waves of the East China Sea, this beautiful island written by the Xiamen poet Wang Guozhen that "the moon is also fragrant, the piano is also bright, and the waves are also sentimental", has left an important mark in the history of Fujian and even the Chinese revolution. The waves hit the reef and sounded like drums – this drum wave was not only the beautiful chords of the Island of Music, but also the revolutionary war drum of the Red Island.

The head of the road is the old saying of "dock". This is very graphic, because on Gulangyu Island, a small island of less than 2 square kilometers, you will reach the pier at the end of the road. Lin, 69, explained.
The piano pier in the east of the island to No. 8 Tiger Lane is more than 600 meters on the map, but it takes a lot of effort to walk - the terrain of this sea-eroded island is undulating, and the road is also high and low, wide and narrow. Even shu Ting, a poet who grew up on the island, "often got lost in front of his house", saying that those "alleys, mossy stone walls and small buildings of different styles are complicit".
However, Lin Mingming is familiar with every alley. He has gray hair and a slightly chubby figure, but his eyes are bright and his steps are strong. Good foot strength, which is a common feature of Gulangyu residents: because of the rare means of transportation on the island, climbing up and down relying on walking.
From the piano pier to the west, along the central commercial street Longtou Road, market road, all the way to see the traditional red brick house in southern Fujian, a small Western-style building that combines Chinese and Western styles, next to the green banyan trees, blooming phoenix flowers like fire.
"It is worthy of the 'Garden of the Sea' and the 'International Architecture Expo'!" Out-of-town visitors will be amazed. Literature and history experts can't help but sigh: "The historical density of Gulangyu Island is too large, and there is a story behind each building." ”
Walking to the junction with the longitudinal Zhonghua Road, if you don't look closely, it is easy to ignore that there is a narrow opening in front of you to continue to the front, which is Tiger Lane. In 1916, a South China tiger was shot and killed from the foothills of the South Taiwu Mountains in Zhangzhou, on the other side of the island, and the alley got its name.
Unlike the majestic alley name, Tiger Lane is extremely inconspicuous in the vertical and horizontal strangeness, and the narrowest point is less than 3 meters wide. Because of this, in August 1930, the organs of the Fujian Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China were transferred here. Earlier that year, suspicious persons appeared near the authorities located on Xiamen Island. For security reasons, Luo Ming, then secretary of the provincial party committee, decided to move to Gulangyu Island to find a new residence.

8 Tiger Lane is a good choice. Standing in the alley, you can only see the side façade of the building, and the layout of the building and the activities in the house are unknown. Walking into the gate, it can be seen that this is a two-story brick and wood building, and the stairs leading to the second floor are located in a small room on the right side of the courtyard entrance, which is relatively independent.
Today, after repairing, this private house of overseas Chinese in Nanyang has become the island's red education theme museum. But Lin Remembers 2014, it was still a residential home. At that time, after a year of retirement, he began to devote his main energy to the study of literature and history on Gulangyu Island, and friends who rented here invited him to come and sit down. Based on his own investigation of Gulangyu architecture, Lin Mingming feels that this old house is "very ordinary" among the more than 1,000 old buildings on the island, but he feels an unshirkable sense of responsibility. "We spend time and energy to protect the historical style of the buildings left over from the period of the public concession, and pay more attention to the red imprints left by the early Communists."
When studying the red imprint of Gulangyu Island, the first thing we will want to ask: Why is the provincial party committee organ located here? Why is it in Gulangyu Island?
Historically, Gulangyu Island, once known as the "Round Sand Island", was high and stormy, inaccessible, and has always been outside the mainstream cultural vision of the Central Plains. It was not until after the First Opium War, according to the Sino-British Treaty of Nanjing, that Xiamen became a treaty port in November 1843, and Gulangyu Island, which was separated from the island by water, also began a modern history of humiliation. On January 10, 1902, the Qing government was forced to sign the Xiamen Gulangyu Public Land Boundary Charter with 10 countries, and Gulangyu Island became one of the two public concessions in modern China. By 1930, when the provincial party committee office was moved here, there were more than ten foreign consulates on the island, and there were countless foreign offices, churches, and mansions.
Although the concession was an area colonized by foreign powers, during the agrarian revolutionary war, under the atmosphere of white terror, it was conducive to getting rid of the forces of the Kuomintang reactionaries. In addition, "Gulangyu Island was already a highly integrated international community such as traditional Chinese culture, southern Fujian folk culture, and Western culture, and the complex multicultural environment was also suitable for the survival of underground parties, which was relatively safe." Gong Jie, an expert in literature and history, introduced.
After the provincial party committee moved to No. 8 Tiger Lane, more than a dozen staff members announced to the outside world that they were a family who had come to Xiamen to do business. Luo Ming and his wife Xie Xiaomei are the eldest brother and sister-in-law. Guo Xiangyu, who plays a maid, and his 15-year-old son Huang Ruozhang, who is a traffic officer of the provincial party committee, will go to a secret liaison station in Xiamen every day to communicate documents and news.
Soon after, Cai Xiemin, secretary of the Military Commission of the Provincial Party Committee, and his wife Zeng Zhi moved to the second floor of No. 127 Fuzhou Road in the northeast of the island, which became the seat of the military committee of the provincial party committee. This five-storey building is built on the rock wall, from the sea-facing living room can overlook the island ships, there are multiple side door passages behind the house to facilitate retreat, from the back of the building height difference of nearly 20 meters Guxin Road looks like a one-story bungalow, few people know that from here directly to the sea.

It was on the seashore in the Huangjiadu area not far downstairs that Cai Xiemin and Luo Ming met regularly every week, like two friends walking and talking, to complete the Report and Request for Instructions from the Central Military Commission to the Provincial Party Committee.
In less than a year, from these two hidden places, one order after another commanding the revolution of the whole province was issued, and the clarion call leading the armed struggle was sounded again and again.
It was the 1920s and 1930s, when Xiamen was a relatively concentrated area of industrial workers. Since Xiamen was forced to open ports for trade in the middle of the nineteenth century, many enterprises such as sea shipping, telephone, post and telecommunications, and canned goods have risen rapidly here.
Beginning in the spring of 1926, local party organizations were successively established in various parts of Fujian. However, the following year, a counter-revolutionary coup d'état took place on April 12, and the revolutionary situation was grim. On December 1 of that year, the Party Central Committee sent a letter to the two special committees of northern Fujian and southern Fujian, instructing the establishment of a provincial-level party organization, pointing out: "The industrial workers in Fujian are inherently very small, but the workers' movement parties such as the seamen's municipal dock shipyard in Fuzhou, Xiamen, have never paid attention to it... The Fujian Provisional Committee must be established in an area with developed industry and commerce and convenient transportation in Xiamen." At the low tide of the revolution, this pointed out the direction for the revolutionary struggle of the local party organizations in Fujian. A few days later, the Provisional Provincial Party Committee of Fujian was established, and the organs were subsequently relocated to Xiamen.
"At that time, Xiamen was closely related to the central red traffic line." Cultural scholar Wu Yongqi introduced that from Shanghai by international cruise ship, along the coastline to Shantou and Hong Kong, to gannan and western Fujian, this traffic line has been under the enemy's strict blockade to communicate with the Party Central Committee and the Central Soviet Region; as a stop along the way, Xiamen Port has a positive significance for ensuring the smooth flow of the entire line, which is one of the reasons why the provincial party committee is located here.
Since then, the first and second congresses of the CPC Fujian Province have been secretly held on Gulangyu Island. In February 1930, at the Second Party Congress of Fujian Province held in Zengjiayuan, No. 449, Neicuoao Road, 10 resolutions were passed, which played an important role in guiding the revolutionary struggle in the province, but at the same time made a future judgment that "the climax of the Fujian revolution is inevitably coming", and put forward the task of implementing the "general uprising of the whole province". This was influenced by the "Left" ideology that was breeding in the Party at that time, and it overestimated the revolutionary situation in Fujian. Subsequent public rallies exposed the identities of some of the comrades, indirectly leading to the transfer of provincial party organs to the more hidden Gulangyu Island in August of that year.

In the midst of the fierce war, the underground party members "flashed and moved" in a vast ocean. The great wheel of history, in this way, twisted and turned, riding the wind and waves, and sailed out into the distance.
The concession of all nations, dressed in body and heart to promise the country
In Lin's view, Gulangyu Island may be just a small wave in the tide of the Chinese revolution, "this history is very short, but it cannot be ignored."
On March 25, 1931, less than a year after the provincial party office was moved to No. 8 Tiger Lane, it was destroyed by the Kuomintang authorities. The Central Military Commission was also forced to withdraw. After that, the party Central Committee decided according to the situation not to restore the leading organs of the Fujian Provincial CPC Committee for the time being, and to set up two central municipal party committees in Fuzhou and Xiamen.
The revolutionary activities on Gulangyu Island, which were already on a hidden front, became more difficult and secretive. However, the red vein of the salvation map has never been broken on the island.
However, the past that was hidden deeper and safer at that time is now more obvious than the morning star. Lin Mingming searched, and finally met a revolutionary old man He Jia'en in the old paper pile. He studied, taught, joined the party on Gulangyu Island, and wrote the history of the revolution in poetry, so that future generations can get a poetic glimpse of the underground struggle led by the Xiamen Central Municipal Committee of the CPC.
"In the morning light, the sunlight rock raises a red flag / sickle and hammer, overwhelms the flag of the reactionaries / The window of the western-style building near and far under the rock, there are countless people looking at the red flag / The motherland will be victorious, and the people will stand with the Communist Party!"
Sunlight rock strange stones stacked, caves are natural. Climb to the top of the pole, overlooking the whole island, overlooking Heron Island in the distance. In He's poem, in 1932, in order to inspire the masses, the revolutionaries held a special "flag-raising ceremony" on this soaring boulder of tens of meters" "unconsciously and unconsciously".
He Jia'en, who was once the executive committee of the Xiamen Central Municipal Party Committee, and other comrades guarded an important liaison station on the island, which was No. 54 Quanzhou Road - Shenzhou Hospital. From 1932 to 1934, it covered many underground party members, rescued many progressive students, and trained a group of medical personnel for the Soviet union.
Located at No. 54 Quanzhou Road, the residence was once the Shenzhou Hospital opened by Taiwanese doctor Li Yingzhang and the liaison station of the Central Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China in Xiamen. Courtesy of respondents
The hospital's owner, Lee Ying-cheung, is a Taiwanese doctor. He led the first peasant struggle against the Japanese colonial rulers in Taiwan, the Erlin Cane Farmer Incident, but was arrested by the Japanese authorities and avoided Xiamen to practice medicine on Gulangyu Island to earn a living. After joining the Communist Party of China, he served as the secretary of the party branch of Shenzhou Hospital, collecting intelligence from the concession as a doctor. Unfortunately, more than two years later, due to the leak of secrets by traitors, Li Yingzhang withdrew again and arrived in Shanghai to continue to support the revolution.
In fact, on Gulangyu Island, the patriotic memories shared across the taiwan strait began even earlier. It was at the end of the Ming Dynasty, where Zheng Chenggong raised troops, exercised martial arts to reorganize the army, and took advantage of the mighty wind of the Fujian Sea to recover Taiwan, which had been occupied by Dutch colonists for 38 years. Today, a huge statue of Zheng shi stands in the southeast of the island, which seems to still be on the cliff and the waves, and it can't help but look at the ancient and the present.
The rolling waves flow from the deep-water port of Xiamen through Taiwan and overseas, and the double carp that has swept the revolution in modern times has flowed from the mainland to the far side. Peng Yiwan, an expert in literature and history, introduced that the party's work in Gulangyu Island at that time won wider support at home and abroad for the domestic revolution.
Huang Yizhu, who is happy to save the country, and Lin Erjia, who does not want to descend to the sun and avoids the disaster of Qin Island... Since the fall of the modern monarchs, there has been no shortage of patriotic imprints on Gulangyu Island of Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan and overseas Chinese. In the overseas Chinese culture exhibition hall on the island, there is a "letter from the anti-Japanese family" written by overseas Chinese Wang Yuting to his son Wang Weizhen.
"Our national consciousness cannot be obscured by the 'love of the calves.'" This is to encourage his son to serve the country with his own body, and it is also to masturbate with the overall situation in mind. There are more than 100 words in the family letter, and the words are deep and meaningful.
The spatial departure from home makes the feelings of home and country more tangible for overseas Chinese, and this psychology is also true in the concession. At that time, in Gulangyu Island, control over all areas of public life, such as administration, justice, and education, was controlled by foreigners, and the islanders were exploited and paid a wide variety of "exclusive" taxes. The so-called "common prosperity of China and the Ocean" is only a metaphor for sovereignty violations. Behind the prosperity, endless vicissitudes.
This collision of Chinese and Western civilizations has sparked national self-esteem. Anglo-Chinese Secondary School, a church school founded by the Church of Christ in England at the end of the 19th century, aims to cultivate religious talents and has always practiced British education. However, knowledge fostered awakening, and strict control could not stop the influx of progressive ideas into the school, where Ho Ka-eun taught and spread revolutionary ideas. The nature of the church schools was instead exploited as a cover for revolutionary propaganda.
On May 10, 1938, on the night of the Japanese invaders' invasion of Xiamen, the Xiamen Youth Wartime Service Group was established in the auditorium of Yinghua Middle School. The 108 members are mainly from the Xiamen Anti-Enemy Support Association from all walks of life led by the Xiamen Working Committee of the Communist Party of China and other rescue groups from all walks of life. In the early morning of the next day, the members of the regiment went to Zhangzhou and other places to carry out anti-Japanese propaganda. They sang collectively composed songs in the streets: "We are a bunch of steel!" Take up the mission of salvation and move forward! Arm the people who do not want to be slaves, and rush the firepower of the battle to the enemy's camp..."
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Yinghua Middle School hired a group of progressive teachers, including many Communist Party members. The students are baptized by democratic and patriotic education. Another place where they received spiritual food was the Qixin Bookstore at 53 Longtou Road. Between March and July 1946, the small bookstore was often crowded with students who came to read democratic publications.

Huang You, the founder of the Qixin Bookstore, was the first party member sent by the party organization to Xiamen to resume underground party work after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. One of his tasks was to lead the campaign as a teacher at Anglo-Chinese Secondary School, and secondly to use the fact that democratic books and periodicals could be published and sold at that time to spread progressive ideas. Huang You, a native of Xiamen, mortgaged his old home in exchange for 300,000 French dollars, as the capital of opening a shop, and found an old classmate Lin Hua as an administrator.
Lin Hua, 97, recalls that the most people who came to the bookstore at that time were college and middle school students on the island. Many people don't have the money to buy it, so they watch it in the store for free.
Just four months later, due to the destruction of the Double Tenth Agreement, democratic publications were banned and the Qixin Bookstore was closed. During this time, however, Lin Hua, who had become a member of the Ccp, often talked to enthusiastic readers to find new targets for the organization. He later introduced Huang Yice, a student of Yinghua Middle School, to the party, and the school subsequently established the first student party branch, and the Yinghua party members developed students from some schools outside the island. "It's like a spark that can ignite the plains." Lin Hua said.
At that time, the land of China, the invading iron horse retreated, and the civil war began to burn again. The patriotic enthusiasm of students in the Kuomintang district continued to rise, and concentrating on the student movement became a key focus of the party's work.
On Gulangyu Island, many students are potential targets of underground party branch contact, including three Anglo-Chinese secondary school students who rent at 197 Neicuo'ao Road. Later, a "tutor" in his twenties often came here to provide them with after-school tutoring. He was Wang Yilin, a member of the Communist Party of China who had come to Xiamen at the behest of the Urban Work Department of the Provincial Party Committee to establish an organization. In the name of tuition, the Xiamen Municipal Party Committee of the Ministry of Urban Works was also set up in this residence. Lin Hua recalled that by the beginning of 1949, the party organization of the Urban Labor Department had more than 180 party members, most of whom were students.
The spark of stars flickers in the waves of the East China Sea. In the steam of water, it burned as if it were a little difficult. But it's still shining, and it's getting brighter.
The scenery is full of grandeur, and the blood-colored legend is difficult to come
After working in the cultural and educational propaganda system for most of his life, Lin Mingming still likes to call himself a "farmer in Sanqiu Field". The Mikunda where he grew up is located in the northeast of the island and is a settlement that lives by the sea. His father was a boatman, and when he was young, Lin Mingming would shake the sampan to help carry passengers between the two islands of Xiamen and Drum.
The area around Gulangyu Island is gushing, seemingly undisturbed, but it may be surging with dark tides. Since ancient times, the people of the island have driven the waves into ploughs and cultivated the oceans into fields, and it seems that the revolutionary cause here also has the characteristics of a little sea. On the hidden front of Gulangyu Island, the struggle was often fierce and quiet.
In the autumn of 1949, Qiwei Mountain became the first stop of the People's Liberation Army landing in Xiamen. Earlier, the Tenth Corps of the Third Field Army successively liberated many places in Fujian, and the Kuomintang army gathered more than 30,000 troops to retreat to Xiamen. The key to the battle was to pretend to attack Gulangyu Island to attract the Nationalist defenders.
On October 15th, the autumn day in southern Fujian, the sea surface was calm and calm. After the sun set, the battle began, but unexpectedly a strong wind blew up, which disrupted the attacking fleet. Under heavy enemy artillery fire, the 271st Regiment of the 31st Army of the People's Liberation Army, which undertook the combat task, suffered heavy losses. Regiment commander Wang Xingfang led his troops to land forcibly on the seashore of Qiwei Mountain, and launched a desperate struggle, and finally annihilated one of the enemy's troops, and our unit suffered serious casualties. On October 17, the liberation of Xiagu Erdao was announced, Wang Xingfang and more than 1,000 other soldiers died heroically, and dozens of former shipwrights gave their lives.
His father told Lin that at the end of the battle, he shook the sampan to help the Platon army collect the body. After many martyrs died, their legs were still deeply trapped in the mudflats; the tide rose, as if they were still standing upright.
Wang Xingfang was buried in the battlefield of that year. It is said that he once told his comrades-in-arms that if they sacrificed, they would be buried in Gulangyu Island, "facing Taiwan and watching the liberation of Taiwan." This mountain, named after the Ming ZhengShuishi who planted the tail flag here, was later renamed "Hero Mountain". Every year in the early morning, the kapok on the mountain blooms and the red is glowing.

Nowadays, strolling through Gulangyu Island, from time to time, you will encounter the reinforced concrete bunker built by the Kuomintang. According to Lin Mingming's survey, there are a total of 28 existing ones, and the viewing platform for tourists at the top of the Sun Rock is one of them.

Until the founding of New China, in the era of tense cross-strait confrontation, Xiamen and Drum Islands were still at the forefront of the struggle. In the 1960s and 1970s, when Lin Was studying at Xiamen No. 2 Middle School, formerly known as Yinghua Middle School, he was an armed militiaman of the school. He still remembered that on those nights when the guards were guarded, accompanied by the sound of wind and water, the horn of Kinmen Island could always be clearly heard.
As the decades have passed, the smoke of gunfire has dissipated, and the former front line of confrontation has gradually turned into the forefront of cross-strait exchanges. The students of the second middle school no longer participate in the uniform regiment and militia company after class, but in a wealth of cultural and sports activities, and the red interpretation team established at the beginning of this year is one of them. Forty or fifty middle school students will begin this summer to explain to visitors the eight remaining red relics on the island.

At the beginning of this semester, as soon as he heard the news that a commentary team was to be set up, Cao Xuan immediately signed up. "I was impressed by the word 'red.'" "That's the cornerstone of our time," she said. ”
The selection was intense, with more than a hundred people registering. Zhou Yi, vice president of the Second Middle School, said that although the time is far away, in the Anglo-Chinese campus, the children are spatially close to the history of the revolution, so they will always have special feelings.
Cao Xuan's home is not in Gulangyu Island. At first, she felt that reading in such a beautiful tourist area seemed like a very romantic experience, and it was not until she entered school that she gradually understood the twists and turns behind the romance. "I want to tell more people about that profound history through my explanation."
Indeed, Gulangyu Island is so beautiful: the red brick and white walls, the green trees and red flowers, are as beautiful as a romantic legend. In the thick ink, people almost forget the cruelty and darkness of reality.
For example, the second party congress of Fujian Province held on the island was rumored to be disguised as a wedding. In the small building where Chinese and Western are combined, the delegates dress up as guests who come to celebrate the joy, and also set off firecrackers and make happy candy. But that was in a martial law environment where the urban workers' movement was badly damaged. This so-called legend is just a forced arrangement. Under the festivities, there is the tension between life and death.
Why, on the other hand, waves of Communists, knowing that they might be sacrificed, threw themselves into the revolution without hesitation? Lin Mingming feels that studying revolutionary history is not just about telling stories, but important is paying attention to the people behind history and the spirit of the communists.
Luo Ming, who served five times as secretary of the Fujian Provincial CPC Committee during the agrarian revolution, held the longest term in this difficult post of defector and absconder, and endured the test of blood and fire; Wang Haiping, who had been acting secretary of the provincial party committee, and his wife Liang Huizhen, both had a good family, but they both died in the united years for the class break between faith and origin; Zeng Zhi, who had been the secretary of the organ of the provincial military commission, sent three sons for the revolution, and two partners also sacrificed their lives one after another.
"Looking back on this history, it is as if it were a dialogue with revolutionaries." Lin Said, "They believe that if they persist, there will always be people who will see the day when the revolution will triumph." This is the belief that "success does not have to be in me".
And the power will not be donated. Time and space flow, the tide rises and falls, the triangle plum thanks and opens, and the once fashionable white wall of pulling hair is gradually mottled in the wind and sun. The former public concession is already a world cultural heritage site full of memories, and tourists come here to commemorate and commemorate, but also to have fun. The gate of 8 Tiger Lane no longer has to be closed; it is generously open, pouring out the hard past. New faces have come to the old campus, but the voice of the young has not changed.
There are always some people who haven't forgotten. There is always something that should not be forgotten.
At No. 53 Longtou Road, on the site of qixin bookstore, a small bookstore "re-set sail" on July 1 this year. The owner is Hong Jiashi, a 37-year-old gulangyu native. He said the bookstore would focus on red books and still use that fascinating name. In fact, there have been many shops on this house number, and the four months of Qixin Bookstore are nothing in terms of time; moreover, selling books in tourist areas may not make much money. However, Hong Jiashi always thinks of his compatriot, huang You, who mortgaged his house for the sake of opening a new bookstore. As soon as he thought about it, he felt that it was worth it, "people always have to have some feelings."
Hong Jiashi deliberately went to Xiamen Island to tell Lin Hua the news. The old man was very happy after listening to it.
The former site of the Qixin Bookstore is one of the eight red relics that the second middle school students will explain. But there are far more than eight red marks on the island. In that hidden history, there must be more unknown greatness hidden.
This small island in the vast blue, it is remote, but it has never been peaceful; it is full of literature and art, but it does not lose its blood; it is full of exoticism, but it has a patriotic heart; it is picturesque, but the most beautiful scenery is the figures who have gone forward and followed.
In Gulangyu Island, following the tradition of southern Fujian, many houses are built with qingshui red bricks. I heard that this kind of brick, rain and wind, the older the age, the deeper the red. (End)
