During the War of Resistance Against Japan, there were not only heroes who threw their heads and spilled blood to heroically kill the enemy. There are also sonorous roses that do not allow eyebrows to be shaved. They are on par with the heroes on the battlefield. They were also never timid when they were tortured by the Japanese army.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Japanese army did nothing wrong, and they were extremely cruel to the anti-Japanese fighters of our army. Countless war ancestors died tragically at their hands. The anti-Japanese heroine Liu Yaomei is one of the heroines, she was hanged from a tree by the Japanese army, tortured and humiliated and sacrificed heroically.
1. Liu Yaomei, the hero of the towel
Liu Yaomei was born in 1921 in Fuping County, Hebei Province. Her parents were authentic farmers. In 1937, the Lugou Bridge Incident broke out, and the Japanese army accelerated the pace of invasion of China. At that time, our army was establishing an anti-Japanese base area in Fuping. Liu Yaomei, who had a deep patriotic ideology from an early age, actively threw herself into the anti-Japanese work.
Every day, she followed her aunt to collect condolences and make military shoes for the soldiers of our army, and at that time, the people in the village affectionately called her "Little Director". Because Liu Yaomei actively worked hard and made progress in her thinking in the anti-Japanese work, in October 1939, our army notified her to join the ranks of great people and serve as the leader of the village salvation association.
After joining the ranks of the great men, in order to expand the ranks and encourage women in the village to enthusiastically participate in the anti-Japanese work, Liu Yaomei also specially wrote the "Women's Liberation Song" and sang it in the village to encourage women to participate in the anti-Japanese work. In addition, she actively studied with the women of the village and learned the advanced ideas of the great man.
She also led the women of the village to take turns to stand guard and send food to the anti-Japanese troops. In the evening, she took advantage of the night to lead the women of the village to sabotage the enemy's traffic and made outstanding contributions to the anti-Japanese work. In 1941, our army expanded the anti-Japanese ranks and encouraged men to join the army. Liu Yaomei also actively responded to the call of our army. Led young men and women from the same village to sign up for the army.
But the young men who went with them were all selected for the army, but the girls who came were defeated. Liu Yaomei said to the conscripted cadres in disbelief: "Although we are all daughters, we are no worse than men when we go into battle to kill the enemy, and we do not let our eyebrows be raised, so why can't we join the army?" The conscripted cadres laughed and then said: "Comrade Liu Yaomei, the work on the front line is very important, but the tasks in the rear are also very important, and the grain, clothes, and other materials of our army contingent all need you to deliver!" Liu Yaomei gave up joining the army as soon as she heard this, and since then led the women of the whole village to conscientiously do a good job in the rear material work of our army and the work of protecting the safety of the village.
Second, in order to cover up the soldiers of our army, they were arrested
In 1943, our army won successive victories in the war against the Japanese army, so our army took advantage of the victory to pursue and repel the Japanese army with heavy casualties to a small city. At this time, in order to save the fate of annihilation, the Japanese army concentrated nearly 40,000 troops and carried out a four-month sweep of our army's Jin-Cha-Ji Border Region. In the autumn of the same year, the Japanese army began to carry out many encirclements and suppressions in the Yangping area of Fuping County.
The people of Fuping County, under the command of our army, began to carry out the task of resistance with the Japanese army, that is, anti-sweeping work. In early November of the same year, the Japanese army occupied a large area of the mountain under the leadership of ShangpingYang'an, attacking nearby villages and robbing women of grain.
They tortured all the people captured in the village, and when they could not collect food, they cut open the stomachs of pregnant women and ate the babies as meat. At that time, the Japanese army did nothing wrong in the village, and their cruel behavior was known to everyone and was called the Binh Duong Massacre.
Luoyu Village was only 5 miles away from Pingyang, and the situation in Luoyu Village was very dangerous at that time, because the enemy army could rob the village in minutes. In this grim situation, the ranks of our army and the people in the village did not shrink back, but on the contrary rose to the occasion.
During the day, some militiamen set up sentries in the village, while other militiamen were responsible for continuing their anti-Japanese work, and as soon as they found that the Japanese army was coming, they immediately notified the transfer. At night, taking advantage of the night, they accelerated the progress of grain harvesting and transported the harvested grain to our army. In such a severe situation, there were still two wounded warriors living in the village.
Liu Yaomei was responsible for taking care of the wounded soldiers, cleaning their wounds, delivering food and other work. Liu Yaomei was afraid that the Japanese army would enter the village at any time to rob it, in order to protect the lives of the two soldiers. On the night of the 11th, Liu Yaomei led the peasants in the village to risk being discovered by the enemy and transferred the two wounded soldiers to Zhangjiayu Village in Quyang County.
Soon, Liu Yaomei's father, who was working in Nangong Village, was killed by the enemy, and in order to protect her grandmother from the enemy's poisonous hands, Liu Yaomei transferred her grandmother to Lianjiagou Village. The next day, Liu Yaomei received a task from the district governor Liu Zhenhua to return to the village to protect the public grain buried in Luoyu Village no matter what.
At dawn the next day, Liu Yaomei was ready to leave for the village to complete the task. Unexpectedly, the Japanese army surrounded the village of Lianjiagou at this time, and she was captured by the Japanese army.
Third, they are tortured and sacrificed
When Arai, who did nothing wrong, learned that Liu Yaomei was a member of our army, he immediately personally interrogated Liu Yaomei. Arai forced Liu Yaomei to explain the location where our army was hiding grain and weapons, and at the same time asked her to explain the name of the leader of our army and the hiding place of our army. But Liu Yaomei was very tough, and even in the face of Arai's severe torture, he never told Arai of our army's information.
After a long period of torture, Liu Yaomei never said where our army was hiding. The next day, the desert well, which had nothing to do, tied Liu Yaomei to a large persimmon tree, and Liu Yaomei, who was seriously injured, calmly faced the desert well and refused to confess.
Arai forced Liu Yaomei to quickly and clearly explain the news of our army, but liu Yaomei said: "The mainland must expand its military strength and use force to drive you foreign invaders out of the mainland territory." Arai said angrily, "Aren't you afraid of death?" "If you are afraid of death, you will not participate in the anti-Japanese work," Liu Yaomei said stiffly.
Arai heard Liu Yaomei's reprimand and was very angry, and in anger, he ordered the soldiers to break Liu Yaomei's pants with a knife, and then he personally cut off the flesh on Liu Yaomei's leg and cooked it and ate it. Liu Yaomei's leg was cut by the desert well, almost only white bones were left, and the blood flowed down Liu Yaomei's leg, almost staining the ground under Liu Yaomei's feet.
But Liu Yaomei did not make a painful groan, but gritted her teeth and insisted on denouncing the evil deeds of the Japanese army. Seeing this, Arai was furious and immediately ordered the soldiers to cut off all the flesh on Liu Yaomei's body. Liu Yaomei never said a word in the face of the cruelty of the enemy, she passed out several times, but she did not leave a tear from beginning to end, she is really a heroine with a special bone.
In the face of the enemy's cruel behavior, Liu Yaomei threw it at the Japanese army and shouted the anti-Japanese slogan: "Down with the Japanese, drive the Japanese dog thieves out of China!" Arai was even more angry when he heard this, and he personally took the knife and cut off Liu Yaomei's heart. Then he threw Liu Yaomei, who was completely naked, into the well.
summary:
Liu Yaomeizhuang, who was only 22 years old, was brutally killed by the Japanese army. After Liu Yaomei's death, our army found her body in the dry well. The fearless spirit of Liu Yaomei's ancestors and the spirit of dedication to the cause of war deserve to be remembered by our descendants at all times.
