The tanker drove to Mudanjiang, passed a small town called Modaoshi in the east of Mudanjiang, and sailed to the mountainous area in the east of the town. Through a cave to the primeval forest behind the mountain, Liu Wanqing and other laborers work here. Their task is to blow up mountains, move stones, fill depressions and repair subgrade.
"I am young and have no strength, so the Japanese let me cook in the kitchen. Every week, I go to the grindstone to get some corn flour, soybeans and salt to make cakes and corn flour. " Liu Wanqing didn't feel anything unusual.
However, Liu Wanqing was stunned by this shocking scene, and he really realized that he had escaped from the gate of hell into the wolf's den.
"One day, I went down to the ravine to pick up branches for cooking. I go further and further. Walking down the hill and looking east, I suddenly found a mass of black stuff in the ravine on the sunny side. I was curious and went to see it. Twenty or thirty people died, and I was scared. But I wonder why there are so many dead people in this remote mountain? " Liu Wanqing was afraid to tell anyone.
Liu Wanqing goes to town once a week to get information. "I learned about the shady business from an old lady in Shandong who sells pancakes. It turns out that those bodies are the bodies of laborers who used to repair subgrade. Railway can be built in summer, but not in winter. They forcibly dragged laborers to the Sino-Soviet border to repair military fortresses, and those who did not go were shot on the spot. "
Liu Wanqing broke out in a cold sweat, and more than one million workers were pulled to the northeast by the Japanese army to repair military forts, but they didn't come back. "I want to escape, I must not die under the Japanese butcher's knife!"
Later, under the guidance of an old lady in Shandong, he chose the right time to escape from the mountain.
Two brothers joined the Eighth Route Army.
1937 After the autumn harvest, Liu Wanqing set off for his hometown. He took the train to Shanhaiguan and walked home along the mountain near the Great Wall.
1in the spring of 938, the autonomous government of Feng Run County and the Eighth Route Army in the occupied areas launched a "great war" among the youth. In this special period, Liu Wanqing and his brother are faced with a choice.
"The autonomous government recruited 65,438+young people between the ages of 08 and 22, and formed 20 regiments of public security forces. The chosen one gives a rich ocean every month, and the poor one gives two loads of corn. Many young people were moved by it. " At the same time, the Eighth Route Army Jidong Army Division is also secretly recruiting troops. Overnight, the villages were covered with posters, "calling on the young people in eastern Hebei to participate in the anti-Japanese war when the country is in danger." Signature: Commander-in-Chief Gao Zhiyuan, Deputy Commander Li Yunchang and Political Commissar Yang Yumin. "
"I hate the landlord and almost died by the Japanese sword. I learned that the security forces are puppet troops, working exclusively for the Japanese. My brother and I are determined to join the Eighth Route Army and resist Japan! "
1938 In May, he joined the Eighth Route Army with his younger brother Liu. "There are many ordinary people who participate in the Eighth Route Army, and all ages must participate."
The newly formed troops have a large number of personnel, all of whom are workers, peasants and homeless people, but they have no weapons, no combat experience, and some have never even seen guns. They were swept by the Japanese army several times and suffered great losses. "The army decided to let some of the old and sick go home, some of them went to Jidong Army Division for training, and some of them stayed to fight guerrilla warfare. My brother and I stayed. "
He became an orderly, and his younger brother Liu died in a battle.
"I was a guerrilla until War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression won."
The soldiers fought in tears.
194 1 year 1 month, the commander of the Japanese army stationed in Tangshan summoned Jiro Sasaki, a Japanese consultant in Feng Run, Japanese military officers, Japanese puppet officials, police brigade and police station in Zunhua, Yutian, Luanxian, Gan 'an, Lulong and Funing counties, and planned a plot to kill Panjiayu.
Panjiayu is located 30 kilometers northeast of Feng Run County, Hebei Province, at the eastern foot of Yanshan Mountains. Panjiayu is one of the anti-Japanese base areas established by the Eighth Route Army in eastern Hebei, which is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with gurgling streams and rich longan grapes.
194 1 year 65438+1October 25th (the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month), the Japanese army extended its talons to Panjiayu. At dawn, more than 3000 Japanese troops and 2000 puppet troops surrounded Panjiayu tightly. As soon as the sun came out, the silence of the mountain village was broken by gunfire and knocking at the door. More than 0/300 people in the whole village/kloc-were driven to a west pit in the center of the village to give lectures. "You all go to the yard, watch a good show, and then go home for a good year." The "courtyard" is the house of the landlord Pan Huilin, located in the middle of the village. The villagers were forced into the yard of the landlord's house, but what awaited them was a disaster.
In the yard, the Japanese army had already paved pine branches and poured kerosene, and set up machine guns on the surrounding walls. Finding that things were not good, everyone rushed to the door desperately, but where could they avoid machine gun shooting and Grenade throwing, the whole yard suddenly fell into a sea of fire, and innocent villagers were buried in the sea of fire.
At this time, Liu Wanqing was appointed as the monitor of Communication Class 1 of Xinhua Corps. The 20-year-old boy is witty, brave and soft-blooded.
"On the day of the tragedy, we fought a beautiful ambush in Hongshankou, Zunhua County, wiped out the Japanese devils and puppet troops who robbed people of food, and seized 1 machine guns, more than 40 rifles and more than 3,000 bullets. The troops got the news of the Panjiayu tragedy and rushed to Panjiayu overnight. When the troops arrived, people in the surrounding villages had buried the bodies. The landlord's compound is a mess, with mud, shoes, hats and unfinished pine branches mixed together, which is terrible. The wall piled up with stones was dug up by people who struggled to escape, and my comrades and I cried. "
"Be sure to kill the Japanese devils and avenge the folks in Panjiayu!" A signalman shouted.
The soldiers finally got their chance. The "Xinhua Corps" was changed to Jidong Army Division 12 Regiment, and Liu Wanqing was the monitor of Class 2 of Company 4. "I got the information in advance. The culprit of Panjiayu tragedy, Sasaki Jiro, will escort coal, food, clothing and ammunition through the trunk channel north of the county seat. We will ambush there in advance, waiting for the enemy to appear. "
Jiro Sasaki was caught off guard by the officers and men of Jidong Military Region 12 regiment who had ambushed him in advance when he crossed the dry river trough with 150 Japanese troops and 100 puppet troops.
"Kill-"The soldiers were in tears.
"I suddenly accelerated the speed of pulling the trigger. Seeing Japanese devils fall under the gun, I think of the bloody scene of villagers being killed by Japanese devils. I cried. "
The fierce battle lasted for five hours, and the officers and men of 12 regiment wiped out all the 150 Japanese troops, including Sasaki Jiro.
At that moment, Liu Wanqing was relieved.
The Eighth Route Army of Japan taught us to fight with bayonets.
"The river is flooding like the sea, the moon and the moon are bright, the night wind is deep, and the ghosts on the water are crying. He said that his family lives in Toyo Mishima, his parents are in Gaotang, his younger brother is fifteen and his younger sister is twelve. The saddest wedding in March is a long dream, and the murderous warlords are dictatorial and chaotic ... "
This is an anti-war song written by Japanese prisoners of war
Liu Wanqing, an 84-year-old man, watched the lyrics in the relatives courtyard of Xi Railway Bureau. His voice is loud and sweet and he feels sad. "I hate Japanese militarism and Japanese warlords, but the Japanese people are as innocent as our suffering people in China, and they also hate war. This "Song of the East Against the War" was taught by a Japanese prisoner of war. " In the old people's home in Liu Wanqing, there are still trophies, binoculars, file bags, bullets and military blankets won by the Japanese.
1in the winter of 943, Liu Wanqing, then the platoon leader of the Second Company of the "Seventh District Team", went to the Military and Political Teaching Brigade of the 12 regiment military region to study. "One course is bayonet fighting, but the teacher is a Japanese prisoner of war. We didn't expect that. We all thought that the Japanese taught the Eighth Route Army to bayonet. How is this possible? "
The fact that Liu Wanqing and other students admire.
Teacher Bayonet, whose name is "I can't remember clearly", is a prisoner of war captured by the Eighth Route Army in Jidong, and a member of the China-Japan Anti-war Alliance. 1939 1.2, at the New Year's Day celebration held by the Eighth Route Army Front Command in Wang Jiayu Village, Wuxiang County, Shanxi Province, three Japanese prisoners, Saiya Skirt, Beowulf Kobayashi and Liangxiong Okada, took to the stage and announced their participation in the Eighth Route Army on the spot. Zhu De, commander-in-chief of the Eighth Route Army, took to the stage and shook hands with them one by one. Inspired by China's * * * production party and the Eighth Route Army's captive policy, they produced the first batch of "Japanese Eighth Route Army".
Mr. Taro lives with the students of the teaching brigade. Although they don't know the language, they are communicating with their hearts. "In the bayonet class, he showed us a bayonet and stabbed it! Straight ahead! Beware of the left stab! Right stab! Stab prevention! " Japanese bayonets came in handy in later wars.
The teaching brigade is in a small farmhouse. Teacher Taro is opposite Liu Wanqing. In his spare time, Liu Wanqing often asked him to teach bayonet fighting. "One night, in my room, after teaching the bayonet, he put forward
Teach me to sing. I speak Japanese. I don't understand. I hummed a sentence or two, and then compared it with painting twice. I see, and I agree. Singing a Japanese song, I can't understand what it means, but the tune is very sad. I sang and saw the tears in his eyes. "
Liu Wanqing knew it was an anti-war song. After learning to hum, he translated the lyrics into Chinese.
Take risks to save the folks in the "circle of people"
1February, 945, the teaching brigade ended its study, but Liu Wanqing didn't return to the seventh district team. His superiors assigned him an important task to go deep into enemy-occupied areas and "make trouble" in the enemy's stomach.
Sheep have sheepfolds and cows have cowsheds. In War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the Japanese army created a "circle of people" in thousands of miles of mountains along the Great Wall. Liu Wanqing still can't forget the miserable life of ordinary people in the "people's circle".
Liu Wanqing took a newly formed armed task force, three infantry squads, 1 machine gun squad and more than 50 people, and secretly came to Jianchang County, the Commissioner. Their main tasks are: first, to contain the enemy outside the customs and not to sweep the enemy inside the customs; Second, destroy the enemy's highway communication and traffic; Third, suppress traitors who commit heinous crimes; Fourth, stop slowing down the enemy to establish a "circle of people."
"There is no organization, no government, fighting, doing the work of ordinary people, and moving under the eyes of the enemy." Liu Wanqing felt that the work ahead was full of difficulties.
Although the work was difficult to carry out, Liu Wanqing and his comrades risked their lives to rescue the villagers in a circle of people in the face of the pleading of a common people trapped in the circle. Sixty years later, in the words of Liu Wanqing, "My comrades and I were embarrassed, but we still made a mistake" because it was not the task of their armed forces to fight the enemy.
It was in the second half of 1945, when Liu Wanqing arrived at the pass with an armed team, the Japanese army's work of creating a "circle of people" had been basically completed. At this time, he met someone who called for help.
"At the beginning of July, when we were walking in the depths of a mountain in Jianchang County, we suddenly met a man in his thirties who was in rags. When he first saw us, he was startled. Later, when he learned that we were the troops of the Eighth Route Army, he knelt down and said that he had come out from the "circle of people" to pick up wild almonds and begged us to help. He began to cry. At that time, we had no combat mission, and we were in enemy-occupied areas. The most feared thing is to expose the target, but we finally decided to go! "
One night, the guards and ordinary people in the "circle of people" were asleep. Liu Wanqing, with three infantry squads, slipped in along the road guided by ordinary people, and the machine gun squad was outside as a cover to prevent accidents.
"Knowing in advance the residence of the guards and the puppet troops, we went to the front and put twenty or thirty grenades in, trying to force them to hand over their guns, but nothing happened inside. We arrested Chang Bao in the' crowd circle' and shouted. They finally opened the door and 40 puppet troops surrendered! According to the report of "insiders", we killed the fake Changbao on the spot, then let the prisoners carry the guns to Beishan, release them, bury the guns in the mountains, and then we immediately moved to Nanshan. This is the transfer of guerrilla tactics of the Eighth Route Army. "
Although "introducing from the east to the west", it still alarmed the enemy. The enemy began to search the mountains, and the area became bigger and bigger, and they changed places every day. The armed contingent did not escape the direct conflict with the Japanese army.
"That day, we were walking in the mountains when we suddenly saw twenty or thirty Japanese soldiers coming from the mountains. It's too late to hide at this time. We held our breath and tried not to shoot, waiting for the enemy to come forward and shoot with machine guns! Before the Japanese army recovered, it was shot by machine guns, and these Japanese soldiers were killed. "
After hiding in the mountains for a few days, the soldiers found some lunch boxes on the bodies of Japanese soldiers. "The lunch box is filled with glutinous rice instead of white rice. After eight years of war of aggression against China and a protracted war of resistance, Japan's military financial supply has been exhausted. "
Jianchang County couldn't stay any longer, so the armed task force had to come to Chaoyang County, Liaoning Province. In the local area, they rescued two "human circles", which is already August of 1945.
"When we returned to Jianchang County again, we found that people in the city were beating gongs and drums and carrying banners that read,' The Japanese surrendered unconditionally and won the Anti-Japanese War!' We also had a rice noodle soup, which we haven't eaten for eight years. "
