"When my grandfather died, my father was not yet born." In front of the old house where the martyr Liu Shaonan lived in Daijiacang Town, Honghu City, Liu Sheng, the grandson of the martyr, told the Jimu News reporter that as soon as his grandfather returned to his hometown, he first gave all his land to the peasants, because he believed that there was a small family before everyone had a small family, and the country was rich and strong before there was a stability in a small family.
The old house where martyr Liu Shaonan once lived
Honghu Lake was once the center of the revolutionary base area in western Hunan and Hubei, and countless moving revolutionary stories have taken place here, and the song "Honghu Lake Water Waves" reflects the arduous revolutionary struggle in the Honghu area during the agrarian revolution. Liu Shaonan, the forerunner of the Honghu revolutionary struggle, alias Liu Zitang, was born in 1903 in 1903 in a feudal landlord family in Daijiachang, Honghu City, Hubei Province, and was admitted to Wuhan Zhonghua University in 1924 and joined the Communist Party of China in 1925. On September 10, 1927, Liu Shaonan and others led more than 300 Communists and peasant masses to launch the "Mid-Autumn Festival" armed rebellion in Daijiachang. In the summer of 1928, the Red Sixteenth Division advanced into western Hunan Province, and Liu Shaonan remained at Honghu Lake, where he was arrested during a secret party meeting for informing traitors. In the face of the inhuman torture of the enemy, Liu Shaonan was mighty and unyielding, and successively wrote "Answering the Enemy's Interrogation" and "Magnificent Song", and was only 25 years old when he was generous and righteous.

Give all of your land to the farmers
"When Grandpa was young, he was brilliant, hard-working, and determined to be a peasant hero of the 'Shui Po Liangshan'." Liu Sheng said.
At that time, there was an inferior Kun Liu Dousheng near the Three Officials Hall in Jianli County, relying on his power to openly occupy a lake surface of the local Hou family, and when the Hou family was helpless, they heard that there was a Liu Shaonan in the Dai family field in Qiuyang who loved to take care of "nosy", so they asked Liu Shaonan to sue Liu Dousheng for them.

Liu Shaonan first wrote a long letter to Liu Dousheng in his own name, knowing that the stakes were at stake, and his words were fierce, aggressive and not losing heart. After Liu Dousheng read the letter, he felt that Liu Shaonanshang had great talent and could not be underestimated. It was even more suspected that it was the hou clan's backstage, so he had to "completely return the encroached lake to Zhao". This incident made Liu Shaonan a little famous in the southern part of the country and drank "little heroes".
Although born into a landlord family, Liu Shaonan sympathized with the people's suffering since childhood, and once wrote the "Record of Silver Worms", exposing the crimes of Huba Tu Dawei and Liu Dousheng in forcibly occupying the people's land. In 1920, Liu Shaonan was admitted to the Gongjin Middle School founded by Dong Biwu and Chen Tanqiu, and during his studies, he actively participated in the progressive student movement, accepted revolutionary ideas, and embarked on the revolutionary road.
"At that time, my ancestors had a lot of land." Liu Sheng said that when his grandfather returned to his hometown from Wuhan, he did the work of the elders, and distributed all the family's land to the peasants, which was supported by the poor people.
The first shots of armed struggle in the Honghu area were fired
In front of the monument to the autumn harvest riot in Daijiachang, Honghu Lake, Liu Sheng briefed reporters on his grandfather's revolutionary journey.
In the spring of 1926, dispatched by the party organization, Liu Shaonan returned to his hometown to launch and lead the revolutionary movement of workers and peasants, and successively served as a member of the CPC Qiuyang County CPC Committee, the secretary of the Chunan District CPC Committee, and the provisional secretary of the Qiuyang County CPC Committee.
The DaiJiachang Autumn Harvest Armed Rebellion was a weapon used
On the night of September 10, 1927, Liu Shaonan led the rebellious peasants to attack the Tu family compound of the "Tu Lao Wu" of the local squires of Daijiachang in one fell swoop, launched a huge Daijiachang autumn harvest armed rebellion, fired the first shot of the autumn harvest uprising in central Hubei, and opened the prelude to the red flag sweeping in western Hunan and Hubei.
It also formed the first revolutionary grassroots political organization in the Honghu area during the agrarian revolution period, the Daijiacang Township Peasants Association. Subsequently, Liu Shaonan served as the director of the Political Department of the Sixteenth Division of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army. \
In the summer of 1928, the Kuomintang colluded with the local bandit Li Boyan and others to "clear the countryside" of the Honghu Revolutionary Base Area, and the Honghu Revolution suffered serious losses. In order to smash the enemy's counter-revolutionary "clearing the countryside" plan and defend the newborn Red regime, Liu Shaonan successively held secret party meetings at Jianli's ferry port and north mouth to discuss countermeasures. On the night of July 10, when Liu Shaonan gathered more than 30 party members in his hometown of Chen Jia'an for secret discussions, he was unexpectedly informed by traitors and rounded up by the enemy.
Farmer Chen Xindi treasured and carried Liu Shaonan's bamboo bed
After Liu Shaonan covered the safe transfer of more than 20 other party members, he was about to break out of the siege, but unfortunately suffered a gunshot wound and was captured by the enemy. At dawn, the enemy dragged the unconscious Liu Shaonan back to the Dai family farm, bleeding all the way, the peasant Chen Xindi saw it, extremely sad, so he took out his bamboo bed and persuaded the enemy to carry Liu Shaonan, who was seriously injured, back to the Dai family farm.
Rather die than bend to write "Magnificent Song"
"Whether it was sitting on a tiger stool, rolling nail board, or seducing him with a high-ranking official Houlu, Grandpa always adhered to his communist ideas and beliefs, never wavering, until he sacrificed." Liu Sheng said affectionately.
After his arrest, Li Boyan put on a drink to persuade him to surrender, but Liu Shaonan was unmoved, "As a communist party member, I believe that communism will win!" I was born a communist, and I died as a ghost of the Communist Party, and if I surrender, even if the sun comes out of the west, I can't do it. ”
Uncle Yan Youzhai brought out gold and silver to persuade Liu Shaonan to filial piety to his parents and Ming etiquette, and Liu Shaonan angrily rebuked, "I don't want this stinky money stained with blood!" ”
When Li Boyan saw this, he was furious, tied up and hung Liu Shaonan, and tortured him with "rolling nail boards" and "tiger stools" and so on.
After Liu Shaonan was beaten unconscious, he used the paper on which the enemy had written a confession to him, and wrote down "Answering the Enemy's Interrogation": "Big husband, if you want revolution, seek happiness for the workers and peasants, and be willing to crush your body and bones." Loyal party named eons for eternity" magnificent poems!

When Li Boyan saw that torture could not bring Liu Shaonan to his knees, he tied Up Liu Shaonan and paraded through the streets to show the public, and Liu Shaonan was indignant, "Fellow villagers, please remember: The Communist Party will surely win, the reactionaries will perish, and communism will be realized!" After saying that, he sang the "Magnificent Song" he had written in prison: "Under the knife, the festival will not change... Kill me alone, the revolution will not stop. ”
Before his execution, the enemy tried to persuade Liu Shaonan to surrender on the grounds that his wife was pregnant and his parents were more than half a hundred years old, but Liu Shaonan sternly refused.
On the evening of July 23, 1928, Li Boyan, who exterminated humanity, brutally killed Liu Shaonan and cut his body into eight pieces and hung it on the wooden bridge of Daijiachang Street Market, and Liu Shaonan, who was only 25 years old, sacrificed his precious life for the revolution.
