Chen Shuxiang's heroic deeds

The fifth counter-campaign against "encirclement and suppression" in the central revolutionary base area failed. More than 86,000 people in the first, third, fifth, eighth and ninth legions of the Chinese Red Army of Workers and Peasants and the Central Revolutionary Military Commission (hereinafter referred to as the Central Revolutionary Military Commission) were forced to leave Ruijin, Jiangxi, and began a 25,000-mile long March that shocked China and foreign countries.

The Red Army successively broke through the three blockade lines set by the enemy in Jiangxi, Guangdong and Hunan, and began to enter southern Hunan on 1934+0 1. 1934165438+1October 18 The 4th Regiment of the 2nd Division of the Red Army Corps was led by Geng Biao, the head of the regiment, and Yang Chengwu, the political commissar, and occupied Daoxian County. Subsequently, the main force of the Red Army entered Dao County one after another. Began the prelude to crossing the Xiangjiang River.

1934165438+1October 25th, the weather was exceptionally fine. In Fuhao Village, Dao County, the Central Military Commission issued a battle order to force the whole army to cross the Xiangjiang River.

1934165438+1October 26th, Dong Zhentang, head of the Red Fifth Army Corps, and Liu Bocheng, chief of staff, convened a meeting of cadres above the Red Thirty-fourth Division in Xianzi Corner, Daoxian County, on the way from Huluyan to Cenjiang River crossing on the west bank of Xiaoshui to prevent the enemy from crossing Xiaoshui. Seriously: "Comrades, Chiang Kai-shek hastily appointed He Jian as the commander-in-chief of the pursuit army after learning that our army had the intention of crossing the Xiangjiang River and meeting my Red Army and Sixth Army in Xiangxi, mobilized the central armies such as Liu, Xue Yue, Zhou Hunyuan and Li Yunheng, and bought off Li Zongren, Bai Chongxi and Chen of Guangdong in Guangxi, plus He Jian, the king of southern Hunan, * * 26. Trying to destroy our army in the east of Xiangjiang River! Our army is now in the pocket of the enemy and is in danger! " Meeting requirements, at the critical moment of the party and the Red Army, the Red 34th Division, after covering the eighth and ninth divisions successfully crossing Sujiang River and Paojiang River, as the defender of the whole army, blocked the enemy in Shuiche area of Guangxi and covered the main force of the Red Army to cross Xiangjiang River. Liu Bocheng patted Chen Shuxiang, the teacher, on the shoulder first, then took off his glasses, wiped his eyes and put them on with his skirts. He said with deep affection: "You should not only complete the glorious task entrusted by the Central Military Commission, but also be prepared to fight alone to prevent the enemy from cutting off the back road!" After Liu Bocheng finished his speech, he led the cadres of the whole division to solemnly swear: "Please tell Commander-in-Chief Zhu and General Political Commissar Zhou, the 34th Division will resolutely complete the tasks assigned by the Military Commission and win glory for the legion!" After the meeting, Chen Shuxiang arranged a sniper mission on the road.

1934165438+1October 28th, the weather was extremely cold. Chen Shuxiang commanded the Red 34th Division to ambush in the mountainous areas along the east bank of Xiangjiang River and Guangxi Shuiche, when the enemy flooded in. Zhou Hunyuan's department is Chiang Kai-shek's clique and an old rival of the Red 34th Division. As early as the fourth counter-campaign against "encirclement and suppression", we suffered the defeat of Chen Shuxiang. This time, he thought that the Red Army had been defeated like a mountain, and he was determined to wash away the shame of the past and ask for a reward in front of Chiang Kai-shek.

Chen Shuxiang is fearless in the face of enemies many times his own. He calmly commanded the soldiers of the Red 34 Division to calmly fight and fight hard. The waterwheel war is unprecedentedly fierce. After three days and nights of hard fighting, Zhou Hunyuan and a large number of other enemies were defeated again and again. Finally, the central authorities, the column of the Central Military Commission and the main forces of the Red Army crossed the Xiangjiang River at 1934, 12 and 1, saving the Red Army and the Party.

At this time, the ferry along the Xiangjiang River has been completely blocked by the enemy, and the Red 34th Division has been cut off by the enemy on the east bank of the Xiangjiang River, so it is impossible to cross the river to catch up with the main force.

1934 1934 On February 2nd, Chen Shuxiang led his troops over Baogai Mountain at an altitude of 1900 meters, trying to force his way into the Xiangjiang River from Fenghuang Mouth, but he was violently blocked by the 43rd and 44th divisions of the Guangxi enemy. The political commissar of the division and the director of the political department of the division devoted themselves gloriously, but failed. Faced with the reality that it is impossible to cross the river to catch up with the main force, Chen Shuxiang resolutely decided to retreat into Du Pangling, temporarily gain a foothold and wait for the opportunity. As soon as the troops arrived at the flood clearing, they were tackled by the Guangxi vigilante group. After a day of fierce fighting, the enemy was not repelled until dusk. At this time, the Red 34th Division received a telegram from the Legion instructing them to return to southern Hunan to fight guerrilla warfare. Chen Shuxiang immediately organized a meeting and announced: 1. Find a weak place in southern Hunan to break through and launch guerrilla warfare; Second, if the breakthrough fails, I swear to shed the last drop of blood for the Soviet Union.

The enemy's new attack has begun again. Chen Shuxiang ordered the 100 regiment to cover, and he and the Chief of Staff Wang Guangdao led the 10 1, 102 regiment to break through.

1934 65438+On February 9th, more than 200 people from the Red 34th Division arrived in Kongshuyan Village, Dupangling County, where they had a rest, held a meeting, wrote slogans, publicized the Red Army and revolution, and mobilized young people to join the Red Army. The next day, a large number of Guangxi vigilantes chased them from Guanyang. In order to save strength and avoid the enemy, Chen Shuxiang retreated south along the foot of Pangling Mountain. Near Xiaoping Village, Qingtang Town, Dao County, he was stopped by Tang, the captain of Dao County Public Security Team. After half a day of fierce fighting, the enemy was repelled, and the borders of the three counties along the river, Yongming (Jiangyong) and Daoxian continued to advance.

193465438+February 12, Red 34th Division passed Jiangyong Shangjiang Market, Daoxian Tianguang Cave, Lifudong and Tongshanling Mountains, and came to Zhangzijiang Ferry near Jianghua Qiaotoupu. Chen Shuxiang saw that the ferry was foggy and silent, so he ordered the troops to prepare for the battle and cross the Kuzijiang River. When the ferry reached the middle of the river, Jiang Hua militiamen ambushed on the other side opened fire. Chen Shuxiang immediately ordered a class to fight back with machine guns. He stood at the bow of the boat, risking his life and death, and commanded the troops to rush to the ferry quickly. After discovering that Chen Shuxiang was the commander of the Red Army, the leader of the Jiang Hua militia ordered a gunman to aim at Chen Shuxiang. A bullet hit Mr. Chen in the abdomen, and he was seriously injured. Reluctantly, Chen Shuxiang led his troops across the Kuzijiang River and went to the next place. The soldiers carried teacher Chen, who was bleeding and pale, on a stretcher and retreated from jiepai waters to Sima Bridge in Daoxian County.

1934 14 February 14 Red 34th Division 100 When more than one person came to Zaohe field near Sima Bridge in Dao County, they were ambushed by Dao County Public Security Corps 1 battalion. The fierce gunfire woke Chen Shuxiang, who had been in a coma for a long time. He endured great pain and commanded the battle with the support of two soldiers. Chen Shuxiang fell into a coma again after repelling Dao county security guards. The soldiers looked at the teacher's painful expression and felt as miserable as if they had been blown up.

Suddenly, a soldier shouted, "Fight the enemy and avenge the division!" " "Say that finish, picked up the gun and ran to the mountain. Other soldiers also responded positively.

Chen Shuxiang was awakened by a noise, realized the seriousness of the situation, and tried his best to shout: "Come back, don't mess around!"

When the soldiers heard the commander's orders, they quickly gathered around him. The soldiers' cheeks were covered with tears, but no one cried. With the help of the soldiers, Chen Shuxiang sat up, looked around at these lovely soldiers and said with difficulty, "How can you fight the enemy? Comrades, we are the revolutionary team created by Chairman Mao himself, and we are fighting for the poor. From the autumn harvest uprising to Jinggangshan and five counter-campaigns, we are not afraid of such a difficult environment. Will we be intimidated by the immediate difficulties? " Chen Shuxiang licked Gan Lie's lips and said seriously, "The purpose of the enemy is to destroy us. He wants us to fight with them. It seems impossible to go back to the original road. Everyone is ready to break through, rush out and meet at the cowshed hole in front. Then, guerrilla warfare was fought in the Jiuyishan area. A single spark can start a prairie fire. " Chen Shuxiang here, stretched out a pale and cold hand, and chief of staff Wang Guangdao hand tightly hold together. For a long time, he said to the chief of staff, Wang, "Lao Wang, you are an old comrade and an old party member. I give this team to you, you must take them out! " Chief Wang swallowed hard and said, "Teacher, let's go together!" " Chen Shuxiang forced a smile and said, "The environment is too bad. Can I rush out like this? You lead the team to break through, I'll cover. Rush out and count one by one, and never let the enemy's plot succeed! "

The troops fought and left, and came to Yinkeng Village, once again repelling the attack of a security battalion in Daoxian County. Chen Shuxiang rigidly tied the wound with leggings, resolutely struggled to stand up, picked up a machine gun, took two guards and a mechanic, and occupied Hongdu Temple near Yinkeng Village.

The enemy's new attack has begun! Security teams from rivers, Daoxian and ningyuan county swarmed in. Chen Shuxiang used the favorable terrain of Hongdu Temple to block the enemy and cover the comrades to break through. Chen Shuxiang ran out of bullets and the mechanic died. The enemy screamed and pounced on Hongdu Temple. ...

When the enemy caught a Red Army commander, he was ecstatic. He Xiang, the battalion commander of the 1st battalion of Daoxian Public Security Team who commanded Sima Qiao, ordered Chen Shuxiang to be carried to a cloth shop to find a doctor to deliver meals for him. Trying to get information about the Red Army from Chen Shuxiang. In the face of threats and inducements from the enemy, Chen Shuxiang steadfastly refused to go on a hunger strike and persisted in the struggle. Adan had no choice but to carry Chen Shuxiang to Daoxian at dawn on February 1934+ 18 to claim credit from his boss. At 8 o'clock in the morning, when he went to Jiangjuntang Natural Village near Shimashen Village, Gongba Town, Dao County, Chen Shuxiang took it by surprise, gritted his teeth, endured great pain, put his hand into his abdomen from the wound, dug up his intestines, tried his best, made a hullabaloo about, broke his intestines and made a heroic sacrifice. At the age of 29. Practiced his heroic oath of "shedding the last drop of blood for the Soviet Union"!

After Chen Shuxiang died, the enemy cut off his head, sent it to Changsha and hung it at the city gate. The masses buried Chen Shuxiang's headless body and the guards who died together in Xiandao County, on the shore of Xiaoshui, on the north side of the west end of Shangguan Bridge, behind the central grain depot and on Feixia Mountain in the left rear of No.2 Middle School, which is called "Double Eight Ancestors". After liberation, every time I went to Tomb-Sweeping Day, Communist Youth League members and young pioneers often went to pay homage to the grave.
