Famous generals martyred the country, willing to fight for blood to defend Wuhua. Taihang Hao's qi has been passed down through the ages, leaving Qingzhang vomiting blood flowers.
This is a poem written by Commander Zhu De for the sacrifice of General Zuo Quan. This poem explains the heroism of General Zuo Quan's sacrifice for the country.
General Zuo Quan used his life to defend the country, took the lead as a soldier, and died heroically in the War of Resistance Against Japan, and some people say that if he had not died in that battle, he would probably have surpassed Su Yu and become the head of China's generals.
In the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Hundred Regiments War was one of the most famous battles, and the Communist Party of China struck a blow at the arrogance of the Japanese with a tenacious spirit. After the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, the defeated Japanese general Tada Jun was transferred back to China, and it was the famous "China Pass" Okamura Ninji who accepted the battlefield in North China.
Okamura Ningji was familiar with China's national conditions, spoke fluent Chinese, and he came up with a bad plan to make the two squadrons of the Japanese army change into the clothes of ordinary people and go deep into the hinterland of Taihang.
Along the way, the Chinese masses were completely unaware of the difference between the gang.
While surveying the situation of the Chinese Communist Party, Okamura Ninji mobilized troops to prepare to encircle the Communist base area in the Taihang Mountains. Under his plan, the Base Area of the Chinese Communist Party was surrounded by Japanese regiments, and a fight began.
The unsuspecting Communists were not frightened by the surprise attack of the Japanese, and after a brief panic, Peng Dehuai and Zuo Quan began to organize troops to break through. In order to cover the safe evacuation of the headquarters and the people, the fighters did their best.
The other side was menacing, and had already grasped almost everything about the outskirts of the base area; the enemy was in the dark, and Zuo Quan could only let Peng Dehuai lead his men out of the breakthrough point first, while he himself covered the withdrawal of the masses of the people in the rear.
After a day of fighting, most of the cadres of the organs and the masses of the people were safely evacuated, but the guards around Peng Dehuai returned. Seeing this guard, Zuo Quan was shocked, it would not be that the enemy had set up an ambush outside.
The guards ran over and said that Peng Dehuai and most of the people had evacuated to safety, and asked Zuo Quan to evacuate the battlefield first. Hearing the news that everyone was safe, Zuo Quan relaxed his mind.
But looking at the comrades who were still fighting, how could they go first?
Zuo Quan told the guards: "You go to protect Commander Peng, I have my own post and can't leave." ”
The guard still wanted to say something, but Zuo Quan had already pushed him out, and he shouted: "If Peng Zong has a three long and two short, I will shoot you!" "The guards had to go first.
However, what people did not expect was that on cross ridge, when General Zuo Quan was helping the people to transfer, he was hit on the forehead and chest and legs by shell fragments, and he was covered with blood and died heroically.
General Zuo Quan was only 37 years old when he died, and although his life was short, he lived a very wonderful life. In the army at that time, there were not many soldiers as educated as him, especially he and Chen Geng and Liu Bocheng and others were friends in classmates and studied abroad.
After returning to China, he also studied and trained at the Whampoa Military Academy, and later joined the Communist Party of China, where he performed well in all major battles. Although he was framed by Wang Ming and others, he has always maintained a good style and has never complained a word.
Mao Zedong commented on him: "Zuo Quan has digested all the foreign bread he eats, and this man is a general who is 'hard with both poles'." This is also the best clarification of zuoquan being stigmatized by Wang Ming and others in the party.
The sacrifice of General Zuo Quan is a major loss for our Party.
When he received the news of General Zuo Quan's sacrifice, even Commander-in-Chief Peng, who had always been strong, shed tears. Zuo Quan has always been the most effective cadre of Mr. Peng and has made great contributions in many battles.
The two heroes have a lot of sympathy for each other, knowing that Zuo Quan likes to smoke, and Mr. Peng also deliberately asked people to bring cigarettes from the Soviet Union to Zuo Quan. It can be said that Zuo Quan was regarded as the closest comrade-in-arms by Mr. Peng, but he broke through the encirclement, and Zuo Quan remained in the Taihang Mountains forever, and Mr. Peng blamed himself very much, and for a long time he was sad.
Later, Mr. Peng also took Zuo Quan's daughter Zuo Taibei to his side and took care of Zuo Taibei's food, clothing, shelter and transportation, which was to do his last part for this comrade-in-arms, and also comforted general Zuo Quan's spirit in heaven.
Before Zuo Quan's sacrifice, the Party Central Committee feared that the Japanese would counterattack, and in order to ensure the safety of the military dependents, most of the military dependents were transferred to the Yan'an base area, and Zuo Quan's wife and daughter Liu Zhilan and Zuo Taibei were also among them.
Unexpectedly, this was also the last time the family would meet.
In fact, in Zuo Quan's heart, he always felt indebted to his wife and daughter, and when his wife was pregnant, he was not around, until his daughter was born later, Zuo Quan had been fighting outside. In the letter at home, he instructed his wife to kiss his daughter more instead of himself.
After the Hundred Regiments War, Zuo Quan, who had almost no eye on the battlefield for four days and four nights, wrote a family letter to his wife, in which he encouraged her to continue to do a good job in the war of resistance, and was full of confidence in the war between words.
At the same time, he expressed his thoughts for his wife and daughter in the letter, and this letter full of her husband's thoughts and love reached Liu Zhilan's hands after Zuo Quan's sacrifice. See what was written in the letter, "Zhilan! Dear: It is easy to see and difficult to see, twenty-one months apart, when will we meet? Read, read! ”
The thoughts between the words of this letter were touching, and I did not expect that this letter had become the last pen of General Zuo Quan.
Liu Zhilan, who received the letter, could not cry, and Zuo Quan's daughter at this time, Zuo Taibei, was not yet two years old. Zuo Taibei has not yet seen his father a few times, and he has lost the right to enjoy his father's love, which is the regret of Zuo Quan's life and the regret of Zuo Taibei's life.
In fact, in the War of Resistance Against Japan, how many soldiers died on the battlefield like General Zuo Quan, and most of the fighters, like General Zuo Quan, spilled their blood on this beloved land without even having time to leave their last words.
During the War of Resistance Against Japan, many people gave up their pens and devoted their lives to the anti-Japanese struggle. At that time, the whole Chinese people were united in their hearts and minds, only to drive out the invading Japanese army, and it was in this unswervingness that New China was reborn.
Many revolutionary ancestors like Zuo Quan defended the motherland with their own blood during the War of Resistance Against Japan, and many more went forward to crush the goal of the Japanese and Koso in laying down China for three months and shattered the illusions of the Japanese Koso, and we must always remember the sacrifices of these revolutionary ancestors.
