When the movie was played when Liu Hulan led the villagers to overthrow the reactionary village chief, there was a cheer from the audience; when Liu Hulan was arrested by the mobilizers and died under the enemy's knife, there was another cry of sorrow from the crowd, and everyone was angry and stared at each other, and their eyes were full of tears.

At the end of the movie, an old woman in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Baby girl, you died so tragically!" Then he fell to the ground and passed out.
Seeing that someone at the scene fainted, the villagers hurriedly carried her aside, and after emergency rescue, the old woman woke up slowly. When the old woman woke up, she couldn't help but cry loudly and shouted: "The baby girl in the movie died too tragically, and the real situation at that time was even more tragic than in the movie...."
As soon as the old woman said this, people who knew the inside story cried unceasingly, yes, who else can experience the pain of losing a daughter more than the old woman in front of her, when Liu Hulan sacrificed, she was just a 15-year-old child...
Children's groups
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="5" > joined the revolution and was a hero</h1>
This old woman who fainted at the scene of the movie screening, named Hu Wenxiu, is Liu Hulan's stepmother and single-handedly brought Liu Hulan up.
Liu Hulan, a native of Yunzhouxi Village, Wenshui County, Shanxi Province, was born in 1932. Although Liu Hulan's family had more than 40 acres of land, in that turbulent era when the people were exploited and oppressed, the Liu family exerted all their strength, and most of the grain obtained in a year was taken away by local landlords and warlords.
Liu Hulan's birth mother, Wang Changqing, was an authentic rural woman who gave birth to two daughters, Liu Hulan and Liu Ailan, to her husband Liu Jingqian. However, due to the failure to give birth to a son, Wang Changqing blamed himself, and contracted a serious illness during the second confinement, and died when Liu Hulan was 5 years old.
Liu Hulan
After Wang Changqing's death, in order to take care of the family's life, Liu Jingqian married Hu Wenxiu, who was more than ten years younger than him. Although Hu Wenxiu was Liu Hulan's stepmother, she cared deeply for Liu Hulan and especially supported her to participate in the revolution. When Liu Hulan was 8 years old, Hu Wenxiu sent her to the primary school in the village.
When Liu Hulan was studying, he caught up with the armed workers led by the Communist Party to carry out the land reform campaign in Wenshui. After a long period of listening, Liu Hulan developed a great enthusiasm for the revolution, and at the age of 9, he joined the children's group in the village and was appointed as the leader of the children's group because of his positive performance.
In the blink of an eye, in 1946, Chiang Kai-shek brazenly provoked a civil war in disregard of public opinion. Shi Peihuan, the village chief of YunzhouXi Village, watched Yan Xishan's troops make a comeback, and his heart was restless, and he began to collect grain from the people on a large scale and continuously delivered the grain to the hands of Yan Jun. When 14-year-old Liu Hulan learned of this, he immediately reported it to the local armed workers' team and cooperated with the armed workers' team to secretly execute Shi Peihuan. When the news came out, Yun Zhou Xi Village was full of applause, and was amazed by the courage of this little girl.
However, behind Liu Hulan's charge, there is an unpredictable crisis.
The scene of Liu Hulan's trial
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="48" > age, heroic righteousness</h1>
After Shi Peihuan was executed, Yan Jun organized a landlord armed force called the "Revenge Self-Defense Force" to investigate the truth of Shi Peihuan's execution, and under the informant of agents and traitors, they quickly identified Liu Hulan as the "mastermind" among them.
On January 12, 1947, Zhang Quanbao, instructor of yanjun company, Xu Desheng, company commander, and Lu Defang, captain of the "Revenge Self-Defense Force", led people to surround YunzhouXi Village. They gathered the villagers in an open space in an ancient temple next to the village, and arrested Shi Wuze, the secretary of the village farmers' association, and Shi Sanhuai, an underground party member, on the spot. Shi Wu could not withstand the severe torture and confessed to Liu Hulan.
Liu Hulan originally had the opportunity to evacuate, the night before the incident, she received a notice from the wugong team to withdraw from Yunzhou West Village together, but in time for the wugong team to have a task that night, the evacuation time was arranged on the 12th. When Liu Hulan was preparing to leave early in the morning, the enemy had already blocked the mouth of the village and retreated one step too late.
In desperation, Liu Hulan went to the neighbor's sister-in-law's house to hide, but the home was already crowded with people. In order not to bother the villagers, Liu Hulan also came to the ancient temple, and as a result, she was recognized by the reactionaries at a glance and arrested on the spot.
Liu Hulan was righteous
At first, the reactionaries were not in a hurry to kill Liu Hulan, but wanted to "kill chickens and scare monkeys" and force Liu Hulan to tell the secrets of the Communist Party. So Zhang Quanbao pulled a great uncle in front of the knife and forced him to ask, "You say, is Liu Hulan a good person or a bad person?" ”
Although the uncle was frightened and his legs and stomach were weak, he still straightened his waist and replied: "Liu Hulan is a good person and a good child." ”
"Good guys, right? Then shoot you first! Zhang Quanbao scolded sharply.
Uncle was so frightened that he retreated one after another.
Then, the company commander Xu Desheng read out the "crimes" of the seven Communists and asked the villagers to report and expose them, confessing that one communist was rewarded, but none of them compromised with the reactionaries.
Zhang Quanbao, seeing that intimidation did not work, targeted Liu Hulan and asked her, "Who else are the Communists in your village?" ”
"No, I'm the only one." Liu Hulan's eyes widened in anger and he did not yield.
"Say it, you can not only survive, but also get a piece of land." Zhang Quanbao lured Liu Hulan with Houlu to open his mouth.
"Even if you carried me a golden man, I wouldn't confess." Liu Hulan continued.
Chairman Mao wrote an inscription for Liu Hulan
"Communists can't be killed!" After saying this, Liu Hulan cut his hair and resolutely lay down on the knife. With the sound of the knife, Liu Hulan bravely and righteously sacrificed himself in the good old age of 15.
That Spring Festival, every household in YunzhouXi Village did not post the Spring Festival, and paid tribute to the youngest female martyr who sacrificed the Chinese Communist Party with a silent gesture.
In March 1947, chairman Mao, who worked in a cave dwelling in Yan'an, learned of Liu Hulan's death, and kept chanting "Liu Hulan, Liu Hulan" in his mouth, and wrote down eight big characters of "Greatness of Life, Glory of Death" with a pen, expressing deep condolences to this female martyr who sacrificed herself for the revolution.
Still
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="53" > has been tossed around several times, and the criminal has been punished</h1>
Liu Hulan sacrificed in the pursuit of light and victory, her sacrifice aroused the patriotic enthusiasm of thousands of green onion teenagers, who went forward to build a vigorous new China. After the founding of New China, the pursuit of the killing of Liu Hulan and the informers was also put on the agenda.
Lu Defang, the captain of the "Revenge Self-Defense Force", knew that he had committed an unforgivable crime and tried to disguise himself as a businessman to escape, only to be recognized by the masses. After receiving the report from the masses, the People's Liberation Army immediately launched a thunderous operation, arresting and shooting Lu Defang.
Xu Desheng, the commander of the enemy company who participated in the direct killing of Liu Hulan, was promoted to battalion commander because of his meritorious "killing" of people. Soon after, the People's Liberation Army liberated Wenshui. Xu Desheng was afraid of being exposed and hid in a medicine shop in Wenshui as a brother-in-law. After the founding of New China, Xu Desheng was taken out and executed in 1951, and he was also the first culprit to be arrested to kill Liu Hulan.
Zhang Quanbao
After Xu Desheng was captured, Zhang Quanbao, the instructor of the enemy company, was like a bird of fright, and he released news to the outside world, saying that he had returned to his hometown in Shandong, but in fact he was hiding in the cellar of his home in an attempt to pass the pass in a confused manner. At this time, a man named Wang Liancheng revealed the whereabouts of Zhang Quanbao. On May 8, 1951, public security officers rushed to Zhang Quanbao's home and arrested him. On the day of his arrest, Zhang Quanbao tried to resist and slyly argued: "What crime have I committed?" Why are you arresting me? The public security officer immediately identified himself and scolded: "Don't pretend anymore, you are the main culprit who killed Liu Hulan!" As soon as Zhang Quanbao heard that his face was like dead ash, he obediently tied his hands and grabbed it.
Shi Wuze, who had informed the reactionaries, clashed with Liu Hulan because of a military shoe making, and he held a grudge in his heart and betrayed Liu Hulan. After Liu Hulan's sacrifice, he knew that his sins were deep, and he hid in the village with his tail between his legs. In 1963, Shi Wuze was sentenced to death in public trial.
The heroine died unjustly, and after more than ten years, the murderers finally got the end they deserved!
Hu Wenxiu
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="56" how about Liu Hulan's relatives >? </h1>
Liu Hulan's stepmother, Hu Wenxiu, treated Liu Hulan as her own daughter and took good care of her, raising her to become a national hero. After Liu Hulan's sacrifice, Hu Wenxiu was devastated and determined to complete his daughter's unfinished business, joining the Chinese Communist Party in 1950 and sending his remaining children to join the army. Later, at some point, rumors spread in the village, and Hu Wenxiu was saddled with the insult of informing, but Hu Wenxiu never refuted it. In 1960, Liu Hulan sacrificed the truth to reveal, and finally returned Hu Wenxiu's innocence.
In Hu Wenxiu's later years, the scene of Liu Hulan's sacrifice always appeared in her mind, and she could not let go of it for a long time. In 1982, when "Liu Hulan" was released in Wenshui, she had to endure grief to watch the entire movie, and when she saw Liu Hulan being executed at the end, she lost control of her emotions, cried uncontrollably, and couldn't help shouting: "Baby girl, you died too tragically!" Everyone present shed tears.
Liu Hulan's own sister Liu Ailan, the sister sacrificed her at the scene, when she saw her sister die under the knife, she cried loudly and immediately fainted. When she got home, she hugged her mother, Hu Wenxiu, and her body was shaking all the time. From that day on, Liu Ailan did not eat for seven days and seven nights, immersed in the grief of her sister's sacrifice and unable to extricate herself.
Liu Ailan
In 1948, at the age of 13, Liu Ailan inherited her sister's legacy and joined the People's Liberation Army, becoming an actor in the Ichino Combat Drama Society. Due to the similarity of her sister's face, the drama club arranged for her to play Liu Hulan. At first, Liu Ailan refused, and she could not bear to recall the scene when her sister was sacrificed, but the leader told her: "We let you play Liu Hulan because we wanted more people to know about the shameless acts of the reactionaries and expose their evil deeds!" Liu Ailan accepted this glorious and arduous task.
Once, when the drama club was performing "Liu Hulan" in Shaanxi, Liu Ailan, who was standing on the stage, suddenly shouted to the crowd under the stage: "Comrades, my sister was killed by the enemy, you must avenge her!" The scene brought tears to people's eyes.
After the founding of New China, Liu Ailan followed the drama company into Beijing and continued to star in "Liu Hulan". After watching the performance, Premier Zhou couldn't help but burst into tears, and he went backstage to find Liu Ailan, held her hand tightly, and said: "I remember 'Erlanzi'!" ”
On January 6, 2017, Liu Ailan, who was 82 years old, returned to Wenshui County. For the past 70 years, the unforgettable memories of her childhood have lingered in her mind, and because of the nightmare, she has never dared to return to her hometown to see her sister. This time, she finally plucked up the courage to come to her sister's tombstone, put down a copy of "My Sister Liu Hulan" that she wrote, and before she could express her inner thoughts, she had already cried uncontrollably...
