The glorious course of the Red Army Station
Author: Tao Jiazong (Hubei)
Not long ago, I went to the former Red Army post station to pay homage to the revolutionary historical sites of the heroic predecessors.
Just after the Red 25th Army won a series of major victories, and then moved to Taojiahe in Yingshan and used it as a revolutionary base area, the Kuomintang was worried that the Taojiahe revolutionary base area would become bigger and stronger, so it hurriedly dispatched the 47th Division of Shangguanyun and the 54th Division of Hao Menglin to flank and encircle the Taojiahe revolutionary base area from the two directions of Yingshan, Luotian, and Anhui. Just before the Fourth Encirclement and Suppression Campaign was launched by the enemy's 47th Division from Yingshan to the Taojiahe Revolutionary Base Area in three directions, that is, before the Battle of Niubeispine, more than 30 members of the Red Army's reconnaissance company were ordered to garrison the Wuli Pai Ridge, the pavilion, the eagle's beak rock, and the Nijiapeng in Yanghe Village, which were easy to defend and difficult to attack, and to stubbornly guard a main road leading to the Taojiahe red base area.
Except for a few of the Red Army's reconnaissance companies, they were stationed at the foot of the Red Army's "fortress household" Zhu Guoqin's house at the foot of the Wuli Pai Ridge in Shoulongmenchong, at the foot of the Taojia River. The reason why Zhu Guoqin's family became the "fortress household" of the Red Army was because Zhu Guoqin was deeply influenced by the advanced revolutionary ideas of his uncle Fang Jiwen, Cheng Xiuying and his wife, who were already in the Red Army in the 20s of the last century, and so on, so he embarked on the road of supporting the army. At that time, Zhu Guoqin's father and brothers, a family of more than 10 people, only had five points of arable land, and even the most basic living security was unsustainable, so naturally they did not have a house of their own. Zhu Guoqin's family, who had nowhere to live, only relied on their in-laws, that is, they were both the uncle of Zhu Guoqin's son Zhu Qixin and the uncle of their parents, so they benefited from the Bao family's best efforts to help build three thatched houses. In order to make a living, Zhu Guoqin's father and brothers, who had a big family, had to borrow everything to make do with it, and finally opened a simple restaurant in their thatched house to serve the passers-by in Taojiahe. Later, Fang Jiwen and his wife were in the Red Army, and their orphans were adopted by Zhu Qixin until they died of illness in 1949.
The location of Zhu Guoqin's simple hotel happens to be on the side of the road leading to the Taojia River, and it is backed by the steep and steep Wuli Pai Mountain. As an old "fortress household" of the Red Army, Zhu Guoqin has been secretly engaged in actively assisting the Red Army. This time, Zhu Guoqin took advantage of the fact that there were frequent guests coming and going to the hotel, which was enough to hide people's eyes and ears, and secretly accepted most of the Red Army troops of the reconnaissance company to settle in. Before dawn, the reconnaissance company took weapons and firmly guarded several high mountains and big posts, and then stayed at the Zhujia Hotel under the cover of night. The extremely superior geographical environment in which Zhu Guoqin's hotel is located has markedly enhanced the mobility of the reconnaissance company in dealing with the enemy's situation. First, it can well protect this very rare "fortress household" of the Red Army, and second, as long as there is an emergency, the troops can quickly and conveniently retreat to the mountains behind them.
It is precisely because of this convenient condition that the reconnaissance company and its superior leaders inevitably often hold meetings here to analyze the battle situation. Whenever an emergency meeting is held, Zhu Guoqin always personally leads his son Zhu Qixin and other family members, and takes the initiative to secretly take turns on duty and stand guard for the meeting, and transmit information in a timely manner. In addition, in view of the fact that the Kuomintang Southwest Intelligence Bureau has an intelligence station in the Tumen River, and that the station's head, Chen Changjue, is also a very powerful puppet security chief in the locality, the Kuomintang troops, puppet militia bandits, and enemy special activities are very rampant in this area and the area around the main road leading to the Taojiahe revolutionary base area. Zhu Guoqin took the initiative to act as a secret post for the Red Army, and in the name of hotel shopping and shopping, he sped on the situation of enemy agents and civil defense regiments in various places in the vicinity, and assumed the role of an underground traffic officer who delivered intelligence to the Red Army.
It was not until the 47th and 54th Divisions of the Kuomintang attacked from the east and west and flanked the Taojiahe Revolutionary Base Area for a long time, and the enemy sent additional planes to bombard the main battlefield of Niubeibei from above, and the enemy was strong and weak and unfavorable in the unfavorable situation, that the Red 25th Army had no choice but to make a strategic shift and withdraw from the Niubeibei battlefield, and on November 1, 1934, it began to embark on the Red Army's Long March from the Taojiahe Revolutionary Base Area, and the reconnaissance company reluctantly left the Red Army's "fortress" Zhujia Hotel. In this regard, he left a large stack of IOUs for Zhu Guoqin's family, but Zhu Guoqin tore up all these IOUs in order to avoid being searched by the local Kuomintang militia.
In order to open up a new battlefield and effectively contain the frenzied attack of the regular Kuomintang army on the revolutionary base areas, the Central Plains Field Army advanced into the Dabie Mountains. In 1947, Lin Guizheng, a 14-year-old soldier of the New Fourth Army from Yuexi County, was seriously wounded in a major battle passing through Yingshan with his unit and was unable to continue fighting with the large army. Unfortunately, Lin Guizheng, a wounded soldier of the New Fourth Army, was arrested by the militia self-defense force headed by Wang Weijun, the puppet government of the Kuomintang.
Just when Wang Weijun was about to execute and kill the little soldiers of the Red Army, Lin Renjun, a local gentleman, a representative of the villagers, and a democrat who secretly funded the Red Army many times, learned of this emergency and immediately took the initiative to negotiate with the puppet militia group, falsely claiming that Lin Guizheng belonged to the younger brother of my Lin family, so he was saved from death. Zhu Guoqin, a Red Army "fortress household" with a glorious revolutionary tradition, learned that Lin Renjun had rescued the little Red Army soldier because of the relationship between his mother's brother and daughter-in-law Cheng Xiuying, so he took the initiative to find Lin Renjun and expressed his willingness to adopt this little Red Army soldier. Lin Guizheng came to the Zhu Family Hotel ten miles away. Under the careful care and care of Zhu Guoqin's family, Lin Guizheng lived in the Red Army's "fortress household" Zhu Guoqin's house for three whole years, and he did not leave until after the liberation of the country.
