In Search of the Truth: The Legend of a Strong Female Red Army Soldier
Before the establishment of the mainland, it experienced many battles, and countless soldiers of our Party unfortunately disappeared in the process. Due to the lack of information at the time, many people were unable to find the organization, but they kept on the road of finding the organization. It was not until the country developed that the situation in the country gradually became clear. However, in 1986, when an elderly woman returned with her children to visit the grave in her hometown, which had not been visited for many years, she found her name in the cemetery. At first, she thought it was a duplicate name, but after investigation, it turned out that it was indeed her name.
The old woman eventually told her children the secret of her youth. However, one wonders why the old woman's name appears in the martyr's cemetery. What kind of secret is hidden in her?
The old woman, Liu Fayu, was born in 1913 to a poor family in Jiangxi Province. At that time, the country was in a period of warlord turmoil, and many people could not even eat. Therefore, Liu's father decided to sell the youngest Liu Fayu to the Lai family as a child bride in exchange for food. Although the Qing Dynasty had died at that time, feudal ideology still spread among the people, believing that girls would marry sooner or later, so they did not pay attention to girls, so Liu Fayu became the child bride of Lai Laifa, the son of the Lai family.
Although the Lai family was also very poor, the Lai family's parents treated Liu Fayu like a biological child and never let her starve. Although Lai Laifa is only one year older than Liu Fayu, he often takes care of her, and the two often go to the field to dig wild vegetables and fish together. Gradually, Liu Fayu found that Lai Laifa was very friendly and loved her very much. Although the two grew up, Liu Fayu did not feel disgusted by becoming a child bride, but the two gradually developed feelings and eventually became husband and wife.
Until 1930, a wave of peasant land reform was set off throughout the country, and many communists established peasant base areas. It just so happened that there was also a base near Lai's house. After Liu Fayu learned that there was a shortage of people in the base, he took the initiative to help. In this process, she gradually became acquainted with the Communist Party members, and learned the idea of equality between men and women in the base area, which made her feel as if she had found the direction of life. So, when she returned home, she discussed with Lai Laifa that she wanted to join the Communist Party. Lai Laifa respected Liu Fayu very much and agreed to her idea. As a result, Liu Fayu became a member of the Communist Party of China.
In the course of slow contact, Lai Laifa also felt that the Communist Party of China was an organization that served the people, so he also joined. Subsequently, the two separated because of different jobs, but they both contributed to the organization. Because Liu Fayu was serious and responsible in his work, he quickly became a medical worker in the Red Army through study. In August 1934, Liu Fayu, as a medical worker, embarked on a long march with the Red Third Army led by Peng Dehuai. At this time, Liu Fayu has been away from his hometown for two years, and his thoughts for his family are overflowing. However, she buried this thought deep in her heart.
In a later mission, Liu Fayu was actually assigned to Lai Laifa's company, but the two did not have time to reminisce. At that time, the Kuomintang launched a hunt for the Red Army. The Red Army had to not only fight the enemy on land, but also to avoid the bombardment of enemy aircraft in the sky at all times. There are more and more wounded, and Liu Fayu, as a medical worker, devotes herself to her work. She saw the tragic situation of Red Army casualties and dutifully treated the wounded.
However, something unfortunate happened suddenly. In November 1934, when the Third Red Army Corps crossed the Xiangjiang River and marched in the direction of Guizhou, it was bombed by enemy planes and raided by rear pursuers. Fierce fighting continued throughout the night, with the Red Army suffering heavy casualties. Liu Fayu and others quickly bandaged the wounded soldiers. At this time, Su Lian found Liu Fayu and choked up and told her that Lai Laifa had sacrificed.
Liu Fayu stopped bandaging, but then insisted on continuing to complete it, and only after bandaging followed Su Lian to find Lai Laifa. Lai Laifa fell to the ground with blurred flesh and blood, but his fingers gripped the trigger. Liu Fayu threw himself forward and cried bitterly, but after a moment stood up, wiped away his tears, and buried Lai Laifa with his comrades. Liu Fayu knew that this was not a time of sadness, and only by saving more comrades could he live up to the sacrifice. She quickly went into rescue work, the Red Third Army went through hardships and dangers, and Liu Fayu was busy bandaging the soldiers and caring for the wounded soldiers.
In the early summer of 1935, the Red Army had to go to Wuhan Liujiamiao Hospital to find Dr. Cao to help him purchase medicines because of the lack of medicines. But the Kuomintang strictly investigated drugs at that time, because this task was given to Liu Fayu and Zhong Sanxiu, who traveled day and night and finally reached Wuhan. However, the Kuomintang sealed Wuhan and arrested suspicious persons as soon as they found them. In order to keep their identities secret, Liu Fayu and Zhong Sanxiu exchanged clothes with the beggar girl at the station, disguised as Hanako to enter the city to meet with Dr. Cao. In the early hours of the next morning, Dr. Cao found Liu Fayu and Zhong Sanxiu, but when they were given medicine, they were found by the police, and Dr. Cao was unfortunately shot dead by the police, and they were arrested and imprisoned. After that, Liu Fayu and Zhong Sanxiu ended up spending more than 6 months in prison because they refused to explain the truth.
Until someone escorted the two of them to a car. The car drove bumpy on a rough mountain road. Liu Fayu didn't know what they were going to do, they were too weak to jump out of the car and escape under the noses of the police. Suddenly, gunshots rang out, and the car slammed into a large rock on the side of the road and stopped. In the dense gunfire, Liu Fayu and the two quickly jumped out of the car and rolled down the hillside. At that time, because she was rolling too fast, Liu Fayu fell into a coma, until an old man who went up the mountain to chop wood found her and brought her home. After three days of recuperating from his wounds at the old man's home, Liu Fayu continued his arduous journey to find the Red Army.
At that time, Liu Fayu had no news of the Red Army, so he could only beg or work to survive, and at the same time inquired about the Red Army. However, she could not distinguish the authenticity of the news, so she could only verify it one by one, and took a lot of wrongful paths. She traveled almost all over Hubei, Hunan, Sichuan and Guizhou, but found no trace of the Red Army. Despair hangs over Liu Fayu, but her strong desire to return sustains her search.
After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, it became increasingly difficult for Liu Fayu to find the Red Army. Her long-term wandering life worsened her physical condition. In 1943, Liu Fayu collapsed at the mouth of Laohekou, Hubei Province, when she contracted severe typhoid fever and was likely to die elsewhere if not treated in time. Fortunately, she was rescued by the locals and returned home. And this family is named Zhang Jinyu, seeing her pitiful, he asked her to work with him, and after Liu Fayu recovered, in order to thank Zhang Jinyu, he stayed to continue working.
After the end of the Anti-Japanese Resistance, Liu Fayu wanted to continue to look for the organization, but the Liberation War broke out again, and he had no choice but to give up searching, and Liu Fayu and Zhang Jinyu slowly developed feelings in life and got married. Later, when New China was founded, Liu Fayu wanted to explain her identity as a Red Army to the government, but she had nothing to prove it. Plus she was pregnant, so she had to give up. After marriage, Liu Fayu gave birth to two sons and a daughter, and lived a dull and happy life. She had asked someone to write a letter to her hometown, but because of her strong accent, the letter was written at the wrong address and recipient. After not receiving a reply for a long time, Liu Fayu had to give up.
In 1985, Zhang Jinyu died, and the old Liu Fayu could not withstand the blow and was immersed in grief all day. The children also felt sorry for their mother, so they persuaded their mother to go back to their hometown of Jiangxi while she was still in good health. After returning to his hometown, Liu Fayu wanted to go to the martyr's cemetery to worship his comrades-in-arms, and accidentally found the tombstone of her ex-husband Lai Laifa, with Liu Fayu's name written next to it. The children told the staff about the incident, and after investigation, they found that the organization mistakenly thought that Comrade Liu Fayu had died, so they put Lai Laifa and Liu Fayu's tombstones together. After finding out, Comrade Liu Fayu finally returned to the embrace of the party!
