08 Dongtou Mountain, Yang Pihua armed Meishan girl
(Xiao Dianqun,"Fighting for The Girl of Meishan Mountain")
In the junction area of Chengbu and Suining Counties in Hunan Province, there is a humble Miao village called "Dongtou Mountain", which is a "dead end" located deep in Meishan Mountain. (Present-day Dongtoushan Village, Dankou Town, Chengbu Miao Autonomous County, Hunan Province)
Dongtou Mountain is besieged on all sides by layers of lofty mountains, remote and isolated; only a deep mountain canyon starts from the wushui river and winds into the hole. Along this canyon, a long way into the canyon, there is a mountain nest pond, and some stilt houses and terraces, dry soil. A group of Miao people surnamed Long, who speak Miao dialect, live in Dongtou Mountain and live like a paradise.
Yang Pihua once had an aunt who married into Dongtou Mountain. Due to family changes, the house is idle and just used. The Meishan women's anti-Japanese guerrillas used Dongtou Mountain as their training base.
Before the Japanese army could fight, Yang Pihua, the "Wise and Courageous Plum Girl," Bai Tian Ling, and the "Zhongzheng Little White-Faced" Wang Zhao, the "Zhongzheng Little White-Faced," took their sisters to hide in this deep mountain and old forest, seized the time to teach them military knowledge, taught them to use the weapons in their hands, and immediately trained them one by one to become fighters who could fight well.
However, just as the spring famine is in full swing, the guarantee of military food has become a big problem!
Digging wild vegetables, picking wild fruits, and eating chaff vegetables, they are all willing. In addition to the buried earthen warehouses on the mountain (such as fern roots), the birds that sweep across the sky, the animals that pass through the forest, the wild vegetables corresponding to the times, and the support of the four miles and eight townships, there is also a kind of bamboo in the mountains around Dongtou Mountain, and in the spring, the white flowers that bloom all over the mountains are like white snow, wrapped in silver, and the spring breeze rises, the fragrance is fragrant and refreshing; what is more strange is that these bamboo flowers can also produce fruits shaped like amaranth rice, which is large and white, crystal clear and clear, which the Meishan people call "arrow pole rice"...
When the weather was fine, Yang Pihua took her sisters up the mountain to collect "arrow pole rice", came back to pound the fruit shells, grinded them into fine powder with stone grinding, mixed wild vegetables and vegetables to make various kinds of food, and filled them with military food; then seized the time to conduct military training for these indomitable plum girls...

In a hall house in a stilt house, Wang Zhao was giving a gun lesson to the women.
"Sisters, today I will tell you about the use of the three-eight big cover." While explaining carefully, Wang Zhao wrote a string of data on a wooden board with charcoal as a pen, "The three-eight big cover is the most commonly used single-soldier weapon of the little devil, with a magazine capacity of 5 rounds, weighing seven or eight pounds, and an effective range of 460 meters." This long gun is not only simple to operate, but also has a long range, high accuracy, strong penetration, and is particularly suitable for killing and injuring enemies at a long distance..."
A plum girl hesitated to interrupt him: "May I ask Instructor Wang, since this is the rifle of a Japanese devil, then why should we learn it?" ”
Wang Zhao explained: "Although the Three-Eight Big Cover is a firearm commonly used by the little devils, we must also master its use. Weapons and equipment do not distinguish between the enemy and us, we must know how to use it for us, and drop the muzzle of the gun to hit the enemy. This is a frequent occurrence on the battlefield..."
Seeing that the women frequently nodded, Wang Zhao continued: "The guns in the world, whether they are long guns or short guns, their basic principles and internal structure are basically the same. We usually hear that it refers to where to fight, a hundred shots, but in fact, it is very difficult to do. Because due to the action of gravity, all bullets and shells are flown along a certain parabola, not in a straight line. Therefore, each kind of firearm, different distances have different ballistic heights; different distances, the impact point is different. So, what do we use to solve the problem of high ballistic trajectory? That's the gauge on the gun. Oh, this little thing..."
(They can only receive short military training.)
As he spoke, Wang Zhao felt that the women were becoming more and more absent-minded. Although he spoke very carefully, very specifically, and very seriously, they were still in the clouds, as if they were listening to the book of heaven, and all kinds of questions came and went:
"How many steps is one meter worth?" A grain of rice is very small and small! ”
"What is gravity? What is a parabola? What is Ballistic High? What is a bounce point? What is the effective range? I can't understand a word! ”
"That thing called the gauge is carved with small grooves one by one, as if there are numbers on it, what is the use?"
"Is the 'firing pin' you're talking about the kind of needle we usually use to hold the soles of our shoes?" Where exactly is it hidden? How could I not find it? How could it knock the butt of a bullet out of a spark? ”
The sun rises in the east and rains in the west, and the road is clear but sunny (love). At this time, Chen Qiuyue, who had been looking at Wang Zhao with a smile, but often did not think much of it, suddenly came up with a "ghost word" coldly: "Hit the needle, of course you can't see it, unless you pull off the man's pants..."
Everyone was stunned, and the hall burst into laughter, and the women leaned forward and back, and the tears came out, and they couldn't stop. Only the king summoned a big red face, standing there stunned, overwhelmed...
(Three points and one line, unintentional firing...) ）①
After the class, on the banks of the nameless creek in front of the village, Wang Zhao and Bai Tianling got together, gray-headed and depressed.
Wang Zhao said, "These women are really hard to serve!" They don't seem to have read a book, they don't know a few big characters, they can't understand those basic common sense and military terms, they are still giggling and playing, I said for half a day, but I found that they had already gone..."
Shirata smiled and said, "Yes! They only know that they can kill ghosts with guns, but they don't want to know so many guns; they only want results, and they don't want to know the principle and process of operation. Time is so tight that we can't give them tuition culture, it seems that we have to think of a fast and good way to do it..."
The anxious Wang Zhao was anxious like an ant in a hot pot.
How can they be taught in the Meishan language that they are usually familiar with, easy to understand and without obstacles? Both Bai Tian Ling and Wang Zhao felt that they should be simple because of ugliness, and teach according to people, so that women can understand and quickly go to the Tao. We should teach less theoretical knowledge and more specific operations; we should have fewer causes and reasons, and more things that can be seen and touched and sound "sighed." Just tell them how to use these weapons, there is no need to talk about principles...
As they spoke, the two felt that they had a score in their hearts and re-established their confidence. But before long, only to hear Bai Tian Ling shake his head again: "Alas! ”
Wang Zhao asked strangely, "Why is Brother Bai discouraged again?" Although these women have a low level of education, they have a strong personality, are brave and soft-hearted, and are full of hatred for little devils; and they are so careful that as long as they are serious, the accuracy of shooting is much higher than that of male soldiers. As long as we do it properly, I don't believe it, we can't teach these women..."
Bai Tian Ling frowned and said bitterly, "Old Brother Wang, you don't know!" Although the '82 Force' I brought was highly accurate, long-range, and lethal, it was too heavy for women to carry! How can you cross the mountains and mountains to march and fight? ”
Wang Zhao also scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks when he heard it. Oh, yes! Fighting in the mountains especially requires the fire support of mortars. And this kind of "82 force" is too heavy, even if it is taken apart and divided, the heaviest part is also fifty pounds; in fact, compared with men, Meishan women are as delicate and weak as women outside the mountain, if only Bai Tian orders a person and a cannon to fight, then what is the point of us forming a women's mortar platoon?
Where did Wang Zhao know that in addition to Bai Tianling's withdrawal from the Hengyang position with only a half-crippled "82 Force" without a base, the box of shells he carried was only 3 rounds, and after one round was used in the Guanyin Pavilion at the mouth of the cave, there were now only two shells left, and the logistical supply was seriously insufficient, and it was not enough for teaching and combat purposes at all.
Bai Tian Ling was worried, but he heard the king suddenly pat his thigh: "Oh, how difficult is this?" Wouldn't it be okay to replace '82 forcing' with '60 forcing'? When I was in military school, I saw that the brothers of the artillery section had practiced a small cannon called 'Type 31 60 Force', which was a light mortar that used aluminum instead of steel, and although the range was a little smaller, it was light in weight and easy to carry, especially suitable for women..."
(Trinity 60 Mortar)
"Type 31 60 Force"? Bai Tianling, a mortar company commander who graduated from the artillery section of the Central Military Academy and has been in the battlefield for a long time, is even more proficient in this way! Seeing Wang Zhao's excited look, Bai Tian Ling smiled and pulled him to sit down: "Alas, it is not easy to talk about it!" I have used this kind of mortar before, light is a lot lighter, but the lethality is less than the '82 force'; the key is in this big mountain, where do we go to find the 'Type 31 60 force'? ”
Who knew that Wang Zhao stood up again, and the words he said made Bai Tian Ling's eyes light up, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Haha, this is not difficult for me!" When I was in the military academy, I went to the 'state' many times, and saw that there were a lot of 'Type 31 60 forced' stored in the arsenal of the headquarters of the Fa Xiangyan Military Academy, and it was estimated that they would not be able to take so much with them for a while and a half..."
In the ninth year of Ming Hongwu (1376), Wugang in Hunan was changed to a prefecture; it was not until the early years of the Republic of China that Wugang was changed from a prefecture to a county. Therefore, for a long time after that, the local people still habitually called Wugang City "Zhouli", and Wang Zhao was no exception.
(Mei Female Shooting Training) (2)
"Good!" The two were in a state of shock and joy when a woman's voice suddenly came from behind them. Bai Tian Ling and Wang Zhao looked back, only to see yang Pihua, the leader of the "Meishan Women's Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Group", standing behind them--she looked at Bai Tian Ling and Wang Zhao with a pair of flattering eyes, and she was already smiling like a flower and was overjoyed.
Because, in addition to solving the problem of light mortars, the women's guerrillas are still growing, and the weapons and equipment brought out of the "Tsang Clan Ancestral Hall" in Gaosha are far from enough for the Mei women to distribute. Now hearing Wang Zhao say that the arsenal of Wugang Huangpu No. 2 Branch School contains weapons and ammunition, yang Pihua is not happy to blossom in her heart? (To be continued)

09 Xinning City was destroyed, and the Miao family doctors and daughters also hated each other
In the southern part of the Meishan Mountains, there is a place with unique landscapes and beautiful scenery called Kunshan Mountain.
Kunshan is a natural Danxia landform "museum", which was later praised by geological experts as "the treasure of the country and the soul of Danxia". Her landscape and landforms are not only naturally strange and unique, but also beautiful and beautiful.
Legend has it that in ancient times, Emperor Shun went south to hunt down and kill the Forces of Xuan you to Meishan, and seeing that the landscape was unique and fresh and beautiful, he blurted out: "The good one of the mountains, kunshan, kunshan." Therefore, the future generations have created a special "崀" character for this life...
In all the worlds, the mountains and rivers are still the same. Nowadays, Kunshan Scenic Area has become a national 5A-level scenic spot and is well-known in the world. At the foot of Kunshan Mountain is Jinshi Town, the county seat of Xinning County, Hunan Province.
(Myo Man Ru Xian's Xinning Kun Mountain)
In early April of the 34th year of the Republic of China (1945), with the arrogance of capturing Guilin, the 58th Brigade of the 68th Division of the Japanese Army and the 217th Regiment of the 34th Division attacked Xinning, Hunan in two ways, from the direction of Guangxi County and Dong'an, in an attempt to open the southern passage of the Meishan Mountains and capture the Zhijiang airport in one fell swoop; the Chinese army took Xinning as the first line of defense and fortified step by step, with the purpose of blocking the enemy at Meishan and defending the Zhijiang River, thus opening the historical prelude to the "Battle of Xiangxi"...
In Jinshi Town, Xinning County, the Chinese army used a small county hospital called "Ningxiu" as a wartime ambulance station. Although the ambulance station can use the medical resources of the hospital nearby, it is located on a high land next to the Fuyi River, close to the battle point, and is vulnerable to artillery fire from the Japanese army on the south bank.
On this day, a beautiful girl dressed as a medical staff was busy in the ambulance station. Her name was Yang Mei, nicknamed "Meizi", and she was a medical nurse in the Military Medical Department of the 58th Division of the 74th Army of the Nationalist Army, whose hometown was in Chengbu County (now Chengbu Miao Autonomous County, Hunan Province), a neighboring county in Xinning.
Chengbu is an ancient Miao mountainous county, where many Meishan hero stories are interpreted from ancient times to the present. According to legend, a branch of the descendants of the once-famous Northern Song Dynasty "Zhongyi Yang Family General" later lived in seclusion in Chengbu; during the Southern Song Dynasty, the Yang family in Chengbu Miao Township produced a famous anti-Jin general Yang Zaixing, who followed Yue Fei and died in battle against Xiaoshangqiao, and Yang Mei was his descendant. Although she regrets being a daughter, how can Yang Mei have less of the Yang family's heroic spirit?
The battle had not yet begun, and the atmosphere of preparation for the battle in Xinning was already very strong. The 172nd Regiment of the 58th Division of the 74th Army of the Chinese Army was responsible for the defense of Xinning. Zeng Lianbin, a company commander who graduated from the 17th infantry section of Wugang Huangpu No. 2 Branch Three years ago, was guarding Xinning, but a worrying thing came directly to him.
As the saying goes, "it is better to come early than to come by chance", Zeng Lianbin's lover Yang Mei actually chose the time to arrive - because the troops guarding Xinning were not assigned to the health team, Yang Mei took the initiative to ask for help, from the division to the troops defending Xinning, in fact, they wanted to fight side by side with Zeng Lianbin.
ouch! Aren't you a girl, acting with the division, much safer? Why did you come to Xinning at this time? Xinning was not the defensive focus of our army, and if the large japanese troops swarmed from the direction of Guangxi, then the weak Chinese defenders here would be difficult to stop. Although the regimental commander Mingcan had confessed when he left that there was no decent city defense in Jinshi Town, and that you could defend it for a day, it was really impossible to fight and go; however, as an ethnic group of Zeng Guofan, a famous minister in the late Qing Dynasty, he had secretly made up his mind that people were in the position. But now that Yang Mei has come, will she still have to take her life? Zeng Lianbin couldn't help but feel sad!
It is said that Zeng Lianbin placed Yang Mei in the county town ambulance station, and entrusted her to Xu Junhu, the governor of Xinning County and commander of the county anti-enemy self-defense regiment, who stayed in the county seat, and took his troops and the Xinning County Self-Defense Corps to defend outside the city in an attempt to defend the county seat.
Inside the Ningxiu Ambulance Center, Yang Mei is working with other medical staff to prepare for the rescue of the wounded day and night. That night, I suddenly heard the sound of gunfire outside the city, and the battle began! Soon there were wounded people being sent down, and more and more...
(The defensive battle of Xinning, Hunan province began) (1)
The large troops of the Japanese army really came straight to Xinning from the direction of Guangxi!
During the day and two nights of holding xinning, Yang Mei worked nervously while asking the wounded soldiers about Zeng Lianbin's situation. A wounded soldier told her that the southern part of the mountain had been violently attacked by the Japanese army, and Zeng Lianbin led the brothers to carry out a counterattack and repeatedly repelled the Japanese attack. However, it seems that the Japanese army has made Xinning the focus of the attack, so there are more and more Japanese soldiers, and the life and death of the former company commander are unknown, and the battle situation is worrying.
Yang Mei's heart suddenly mentioned the throat eye. At this moment, only a few loud noises were heard, and several shells came across the river and exploded around the ambulance station. It turned out that the Japanese army had already occupied the south bank of the Fuyi River!
There was chaos in the Ningxiu Ambulance Station. Some people shouted that the ambulance station should immediately withdraw from Jinshi Town and move in the direction of Kunshan Mountain, and hurry up!
Jinshi Town can't hold on! Although I have thought about this situation a thousand times, when things do come, it makes people feel helpless. Suddenly, someone came running and shouted, "Who is Yang Mei?" Who is Yang Mei? Yang Mei hurriedly raised her hand and said, "I am!" ”
(I'm Yang Mei...) ）②
Two policemen with long guns ran over to their waists and gasped, "We are from the county police brigade." On the orders of the governor of Xu County, come and escort you out of the city to meet with the commander of zeng company..."
"What about Governor Xu?"
"Governor Xu is leading his brothers to the north bank of the Fuyi River to prevent the devils from crossing the river, but now I am afraid that I will not be able to resist..."
"Huh?" Yang Mei inhaled a cool breath, took off her white coat, mask and other things while running, picked up a first aid kit that had been prepared long ago, and ran north of the city with the two policemen...
(3) Reference video: The Battle Attempt of the Japanese Army at the Battle of Western Hunan (Omitted)
The two policemen were very familiar with the terrain of Xinning County, and they took Yang Mei to avoid the Japanese artillery fire, ran northwest in seven turns, and soon left the county seat and approached Liushan, the meeting place agreed by Yang Mei and Zeng Lianbin.
But at this time, a small group of Japanese troops successfully smuggled the Fuyi River from baigongdu next to Liushan Mountain, and immediately found Yang Mei and them, and the bullets chased after the butt. Two policemen hurriedly lay down to block the Japanese army, while Yang Mei desperately ran towards Liushan.
Soon, two policemen were shot and killed, and Yang Mei fell to the ground. The Japanese soldiers screamed and rushed up to catch the "flower girl", and Yang Mei was suddenly in a desperate situation.
In the midst of danger, the strafing sound of light machine guns and submachine guns suddenly sounded behind them, and a group of Nationalist soldiers rushed out of Liushan Mountain like a tiger and a leopard. The Japanese soldiers who were approaching Yang Mei and dancing excitedly did not expect it, leaving a few corpses behind and fleeing.
(They rushed out of Willow Mountain like tigers like leopards!) ）④
A large hand pulled up Yang Mei: "Meizi run!" Yang Mei looked at it in horror, it was Zeng Lianbin who had been chanted in her heart a thousand times. Without saying more, Yang Mei followed Zeng Lianbin and those Nationalist soldiers and ran violently in the direction of Wugang.
Unexpectedly, this sharp knife unit of the Japanese army also attacked to the north, just in the same direction as Zeng Lianbin, so the Japanese army chased them all the way and stuck to their butts, which was very hateful!
Zeng Lianbin and Yang Mei drilled ravines and copied trails, and they fought and walked, panicking and choosing no road, and dangers abounded, but they could never shake off the pursuit of the Japanese army. After running through Wantang, Sima Chong and other places, they gradually approached the county seat of Wugang County, but the arrogant Japanese army turned them into "Meishan guides".
The soldiers around them fell one by one, and finally only Zeng Lianbin and Yang Mei were left. During the run, the Japanese soldiers threw a Type 97 grenade from afar: Not good! Zeng Lianbin pounced on Yang Mei without hesitation.
As soon as the grenade "exploded", Yang Mei only felt that the sky was dark, and when she touched it, Zeng Lianbin, who pounced on her, was covered in blood! The Japanese soldiers swarmed up, and Yang Mei cried that there was no way out...
(In September 2015, the Monument to the Heroic Anti-Japanese Martyrs of Liushan Mountain in Xinning, Hunan Province was completed)
It is also fate that should not be extinguished. Suddenly, from the side of Takeoka, there was a burst of gunfire, and the Japanese soldiers immediately fell several times. It seems that it has encountered the Zhongxin army guarding Wugang! The Japanese did not dare to rush again, so they turned around and ran back, and even the "flower girl" who was about to arrive did not want to work.
At this time, I saw two Chinese soldiers rushing from Wugang. With the help of terrain features, they sometimes crawl in a low posture, sometimes lie down to dodge bullets, and sometimes rush up in the air. They perform standard and flexible individual tactical movements, and they are as strong as rabbits... (To be continued)
