Huang anecdote

1In the autumn of 935, a Red Army unit hit Huang's hometown. 1 1 year-old Huang became the "Hong Haier" of a health team under the Red Fourth Army Xu.

A month later, the leader sent Huang a registration form for enlistment, and he looked at the form speechless. Everyone knows that he can't read, so they are vying to let him go to the "satchel University".

An old monitor took him by the hand, pointed to two scarlet letters on his satchel and taught him to read "Red Army", and pointed to two words on his satchel to teach him to read "Ge Ming". Huang Lao recalled that in half a month, I recognized dozens of words on the satchels of all health teams. From then on, every time a soldier came to the health team to see a doctor, the old comrades asked me to recognize the words on their satchels. Later, they taught me to recognize the slogans on the wall, such as "Long live the Red Army", "Go North to resist Japan", "Fight local tyrants to divide the fields" and "The poor should turn over and be masters of their own affairs".

A few months later, Huang not only learned the words from "satchel University", but also understood and knew the Red Army literally. He also deeply understood the Long March from the Red Army's Long March and learned the essence of the Long March spirit.

1In February, 936, the Red Fourth Front Army marched into the northern part of Xikang Province in three columns according to the central command. Advance commanders Liu Bocheng and Li Xiannian led the 89th Division of the Red 30 Army to lead the way. The headquarters of the Red Army and the headquarters of the Fourth Army set out from Baoxing and acted with the first column. It was already the middle of winter when the troops marched to the Jinjian Mountain area in northern Kangbei, which was more than 4,200 meters above sea level. Before going up the mountain, the chief mobilized: don't sit and rest during the March, don't talk when going up the mountain, don't keep warm when going down the mountain, and don't wash your hands, feet and face with hot water. These are all experiences gained with life and blood! In addition to light clothes, the troops also distributed two pairs of straw sandals, peppers, ginger and soju to keep out the cold ... When going up the mountain, the temperature dropped to MINUS 30 degrees Celsius, and many soldiers were frozen on the snowy mountains, their clothes were frozen into ice cones, and their beards, eyebrows and hair were frozen into "iron brushes".

When crossing the grass, they set up camp every day. The soldiers set up a small shack with branches and spread tarpaulins on their bodies. This is home. Huang collected firewood from around the camp, set up a tripod with branches, and hung a copper washbasin on it with a backpack belt to boil water for everyone. Comrades just brew highland barley noodles with boiling water and stir them with their hands. Then, he used this washbasin to boil water to scrub the wounds of the wounded.

Huang Lao said that the Long March is a mobile university, which has taught me culture and cultivated the spirit of hard work and perseverance.
