Chapter 50 Deeply miss Comrade Huang Ziwen, a strong fighter of the party

Comrade Huang Ziwen is an outstanding Communist Party member of our party and one of the founders of the Weibei Revolutionary Base.Although he sacrificed, his excellent qualities of being loyal to the party and never caring about personal gains and losses and grievances will always be worth learning. In 1930, the disasters in Guanzhong, Shaanxi became more serious. There were thousands of miles of desolate land, starvation everywhere, no crops, local tyrants and evil gentry cruelly oppressed the people, and the people were struggling to death.Around the eighth and ninth months of the ancient calendar, Huang Ziwen, Sun Pingzhang, Deng Wanxiang, Han Wenxuan and others successively came to our Shiqiao area to carry out revolutionary work.With the efforts of Han Wenxuan, the Young Pioneers Organization was first established at the home of Ning Qikun in the west of Shiqiao River, with Wu Daxin as the captain and me as the vice-captain, with a total of 20 to 30 members.I was only fourteen or five years old. The reputation of "Erhuang" has already had a great influence around our stone bridge, and it has a deep impression on my mind.Not long after, he came to Po Youfang, Jiaocun, and set up a red guard of forty to fifty people.In order to raise funds for the revolution, buy guns and ammunition, and strengthen the armed forces, several members of the Red Guards and Young Pioneers went to Fuping Tongyang Fort to attack the local tyrants and evil gentry, and got 200 yuan in cash. The Red Guards of the Communist Party of China went to a blacksmith in Fuping County to buy eight bent pistols and some bullets, thus strengthening their armed forces.

In April of the ancient calendar in 1938, I met Huang Ziwen in Wuzi District.At that time, the secretary of the Wuzi District Party Committee was Kang Dekuan, and I was the organization propaganda committee member.I heard that Comrade Ziwen had been expelled from the party by mistake, but I found that he was not pessimistic and negative because of this. He still actively worked for the party with the mind and enthusiasm of a Communist Party member.He didn't care about personal grievances, and was loyal to the party. He often went deep into the masses and carried out anti-Japanese and national salvation propaganda.Under his inspiration and leadership, four or fifty young people from Wuzi District and Xinzi District and more than 30 people from other counties were brought to the Anwu Youth Training Class to study, and the youth training class was named "Farmers' Company". He became the commander of the peasant company.

In 1940, Chiang Kai-shek still stubbornly carried out the reactionary policy of "to fight against the outside world, we must first settle down at home." He passively resisted Japan, actively opposed the Communist Party, fostered his cronies, assembled anti-Communist forces, and transferred his ace army, Hu Zongnan's First Division, to Xi'an. From the aspects of party affairs, military affairs, economy, propaganda, etc., they planned to blockade the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region.One day in the summer of this year, Huang Ziwen said to me: He was sleeping on the wheat field in Ganluchi Village at night, and someone came to arrest him. Fortunately, he escaped. I am afraid that he will not be able to stay in Wuzi District any longer.I reported the situation to Zhou Zhixuan, secretary of the Weibei Working Committee, and Zhou said: "Huang Ziwen is too popular. Whenever he goes to a house, the enemy will suspect that the house is the Communist Party. Now the enemy is going everywhere to clean up the Communist Party. It is best to leave." place".I conveyed Zhou's opinion to Huang Ziwen and asked him to go to the border area.At first, Huang was worried that he had conflicts with Gao Gang. After returning home, he was afraid that Gao Gang would punish him again. After I did some work, he agreed. So I sent Wang Zhiqiang from Sandian Village, Lingqian, to send him off, and wrote him a letter of introduction. , let both of them bring pistols (numbers 205 and 404).Wang sent Ziwen to Sipo, the fifth district of Chunyao in the border area, and returned. Ziwen went to Zhaojin to meet Zhang Desheng, the head of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee.Before leaving, Huang Ziwen also talked to me about his party membership. He said: "I believe in the party, and I believe that one day I will be able to figure out my problem."After he left, I reported his request and performance to the Provincial Party Committee.

After Huang Ziwen arrived in Yan'an, during the rectification movement in 1942, Gao Gang talked to Huang Ziwen again, asking Ziwen to honestly explain the past problems.Gao Gang wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of rectification and use his power (Gao Gang was the Party Secretary and Security Commander of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region at the time) to rectify Huang Ziwen.In this case, after talking with Gao Gang, Huang Ziwen returned to Wuzi District from Yan'an without going back to school.After Huang Ziwen came back, he first joined the underground party member Chen Yuxiu. He said to Chen Yuxiu: "I can't stay in northern Shaanxi. It seems that Gao Gang will take the opportunity to punish me again, so I made up my mind to come back."

On the 16th day of the first month of the ancient calendar in 1943, I was instructed by Wang Jun, the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, to return to the local area from Malan to engage in party work and revolutionary armed work.In March and April, Wang Jun told me: Huang Ziwen came back from Yan'an, you should know about his performance. I sent someone back to Wuzi District to see Huang Ziwen. He said excitedly: "I am a member of the Communist Party when I live, and a ghost of the Communist Party when I die. My lover and children are in the stables. I guarantee that I will never change my heart towards the Communist Party."From then on, Huang Ziwen kept in touch with me.

In January 1945, Zhu Longjiang and I organized a martial arts team, with me as the captain and Zhu Longjiang as the deputy captain.Huang Ziwen later served as the instructor of the puppet Sixiang.After the martial arts team I led went from the north to the vicinity of Wuzi District, Huang Ziwen asked Sun Jingyuan to send a letter to Wu Dakun, and Wu Dakun told me: "Recently someone reported that you have come down, pay attention, and report in time when there is a situation."After I got this news, I was extra vigilant so that the party's revolutionary armed forces did not suffer losses.This incident once again proved that Huang Ziwen's loyalty to the party and the people has not changed. He has other plans for serving in the enemy's internal affairs, which was proved by Huang Zixiang and Huang Ziwen leading the Lingqian Township Office uprising later.

At the beginning of May in the ancient calendar in 1947, I was very sad to hear that Comrade Huang Ziwen died in the battle at Xiaodaokou.Our party has lost an excellent Communist Party member and a good revolutionary comrade.Although he sacrificed, his revolutionary spirit will always be engraved in our hearts and inspire us to forge ahead.
