Chapter 23 Patience sojourn

After bidding farewell to Zhang Wenhua, Huang Ziwen went to Weinan Station, preparing to go to Henan to continue his cattle business.Afraid of meeting acquaintances, he purposely changed into a ragged cotton coat and an old hat, and got mixed in with the crowd. I am really afraid of encountering "ghosts".As soon as Huang Ziwen arrived at the station, he ran into Shi Zhi, a commissioner of the Weinan Administrative Office of the Kuomintang, who was taking a bus to Xi'an for a meeting.In the name of an old classmate, Shi Zhi pestered him to go to Xi'an together.Huang Ziwen repeatedly declined, but Shi Zhi just refused, saying: "We have classmates and friends in Xi'an who have not seen each other for many years. It is a rare opportunity to catch up with each other!"

On the way, Shi Zhi asked: "I heard that after you rescued Liu Zhidan from Weinan, you became the director of the political department of the Red Army. How did you end up like this?" "I was expelled from the party a long time ago, and now I am in the cattle business." Huang Ziwen said flatly. "Oh, there is such a thing!" Shi Zhi raised his head, rolled his eyes and said, "Old classmate, this is really wronging you. How about this, since you have nothing to do, I will go to Xi'an to find an errand for you!" "That's thanks to my old classmate!" Huang Ziwen didn't expect Shi Zhi to take advantage of his own words, so he had to answer casually.

After arriving in Xi'an, Shi Zhi went to a meeting and left a guard specially to "greeting" Huang Ziwen. On the third day, Shi Zhi brought Cheng Jianwen to see Ziwen.Cheng Jianwen defected after the provincial party committee was destroyed, and now works in the "Three Youth League".Cheng met Huang Ziwen when he was the secretary of the Communist Youth League in Sanyuan, and knew Huang Ziwen's straight-forward character. When we met today, we had a little chatter, and let's get back to the topic, and asked Huang Ziwen to write a statement of leaving the party and work with him.

Zi Wenqiang said with a smile: "I have been expelled from the party long ago, so why write a statement? My wife and child are still in northern Shaanxi. Joining your organization will harm her mother and child!" Cheng Jianwen knew that it was difficult to persuade Huang Ziwen, so he asked Huang Ziwen to go to his house and wanted to take it easy. Huang Ziwen knew that he couldn't get rid of Shi and Cheng's entanglement, so he said: "Well, I will stay. Wei Zhiyi, the head of the Second Provincial Security Regiment, asked me to form an armed force for him. I will contact him. There are also Song Wenmei and other friends. I also want to meet for a while." Later, Huang Ziwen specially invited Cheng Jianwen to visit Wang Hongjun, the governor of the Shaanxi Provincial Bank of the Kuomintang, Song Wenmei and Wei Zhiyi, the former special battalion commanders of the Yang Hucheng Department, and so on. When Huang Ziwen bid farewell to these people, he always Add a sentence, "I will work in Xi'an in the future, and I hope you can take care of me and help me!" This left Cheng Jianwen and the interviewees with the impression that he decided to stay in Xi'an.

In order to draw Huang Ziwen into his gang, Cheng Jianwen tried to find a wife for Ziwen many times, but was rejected. A few months later, Huang Ziwen saw that Cheng Jianwen's protection and monitoring of him had not changed, and some of the work he wanted to do could not be carried out.Therefore, Huang Ziwen married Zeng Fuyin, who had worked as a physical education teacher in Sanyuan Middle School, and lived in her home.In the name of needing money for Anjia, he asked Wang Hongjun for a loan to resell salt.In this way, Cheng Jianwen was reassured, and Huang Ziwen had freedom of action.

In September of the same year, through Wang Hongjun's relationship in Sanyuan's political circles, Huang Ziwen served as the instructor of the four townships of Baicuo, Mausoleum, and returned to the front of Sanyuan Mausoleum.He heard from Chen Yuxiu that Liu Guangyuan sent his liaison officer Wu Zhiyu down from the border area to find out about his situation.He said happily: "It seems that the party organization still cares about me." He also told Chen Yuxiu: "When Zhiyu comes again, please tell Liu Guangyuan that no matter how far I, Huang Ziwen, will never betray the party and the people." Since then, Huang Ziwen has often traveled between Xi'an and Sanyuan to actively carry out revolutionary activities.He bought bullets from the Xi'an garrison many times, let his brother-in-law Han Xiuyun hide them in his arms, pretended to be a pregnant woman, and transported them out of the city gate of Xi'an, and then his younger brothers Huang Ziwu and Ma Zhixuan transported them back to Sanyuan.

In the eighth week of 1945, after the Japanese invaders surrendered, the Kuomintang reactionaries launched a civil war.Huang Ziwen realized that the days when the people are the masters of the country and stand up for liberation can only be achieved through arduous struggle. In Xi'an, through Song Wenmei, Li Menghua and others, he purchased more than 30 long and short guns and more than 500 bullets from the left-behind station of the Fourth Army of the Kuomintang.In Sanyuan, in order to facilitate his work, he discussed with some party members and tried every means to seize the leadership of local government organs and group organizations.Through various relationships, a group of Communists and progressives were successively placed in Luqiao, Changsun, Lingqian, Ma'e and other township offices.Use various excuses to resist the exorbitant taxes imposed by the Kuomintang government and reduce the burden on the people.Once, he learned from Wang Zhidao, the vice chairman of the Luqiao Chamber of Commerce, that the Chamber of Commerce was going to be re-elected. He discussed with Wang Xiang, split up the work, and elected the progressive Wang Zhenxin as the regular chairman, so that Dexuan, a member of the Standing Committee of the Jingyang County Party Committee of the Kuomintang, wanted to be elected as the chairman. The long dream came to nothing.Since then, the Chamber of Commerce not only provided a large amount of funds for the revolution, but also became a liaison station for spying on the enemy and escorting personnel going north.After Sun Zhizheng, a member of the Communist Party, served as the deputy head of Lingqian Township, he sent Guo Lisan, a member of the Communist Party, to serve as the chairman of the villagers' representatives, thus controlling the villagers' representatives.

In the spring of 1946, after Sun Zhizheng and Guo Lisan submitted a petition to Zhang Fajie, the magistrate of Sanyuan County of the Kuomintang, Zhang Fajie appointed Huang Ziwen as the head of Lingqian Township.After Huang Ziwen took office, he immediately reorganized the Township Self-Defense Forces, allowing some Communist Party members and progressive youths to hold guns.In order to master more armed forces, he used his identity as the instructor of the four townships of Ling, Ma, Bai, and Cuo to make the political power and armed forces of Ling, Ma, Bai, and Cuo basically controlled by Communist Party members and progressives. The mausoleum uprising laid the foundation.

In March of the same year, after the Third Plenary Session of the Sixth Central Committee of the KMT was held, it dispatched troops and generals to attack the liberated areas.In Shaanxi, in addition to increasing the troops encircling the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia-Shenzhen area, the Kuomintang government continued to dispatch spies to infiltrate the border area to collect intelligence on our army, assassinate and kidnap Communist Party members and revolutionaries.Under such circumstances, Huang Ziwen used his special identity to send intelligence information many times to protect revolutionaries and underground party members.Once, he learned that the Sanyuan garrison had contacted the Township Self-Defense Forces to attack the "martial arts team" led by Liu Guangyuan and Zhu Longjiang operating in the Baicuo area, so he immediately sent a letter to Liu Guangyuan, a member of the Communist Party, asking them to pay attention to safety and be alert to enemy ambushes.After Liu Guangyuan got the letter, he changed his action plan in time and preserved the revolutionary armed forces.

In June of the same year, the enemy held the "Weibei Anti-revolutionary Conference" in Sanyuan, and decided to hunt and kill Cui Guanyi, Feng Yihang, Zhao Manqing and others who were carrying out revolutionary activities in Yunyang and other places.Huang Ziwen immediately sent someone to deliver a letter, asking him to "dodge immediately". In July, Huang Ziwen went to Weinan to do business. He occasionally heard from Qu Zhengping that the enemy was going to kill Zhang Wenhua and Wang Zhangfeng. He immediately went to Zhang Wenhua's house to inform him about it. !” Only then did Zhang Wenhua realize that the situation was urgent, and he went out to hide for half a year to avoid being killed.Recalling this event, Zhang Wenhua is still very moved and said: "Ziwen is risking his life to save comrades!"
