Chapter 57 Remembrance of the Mausoleum Uprising

In June 1946, with the support of US imperialism, Chiang Kai-shek used 80% of the remaining troops, 113 brigades and 1.6 million people, to launch a nationwide counter-revolutionary vicious war.Under the strong leadership of the Communist Party of China, our army wiped out a total of 710,000 Kuomintang troops in eight months.Since February 1947, the hostile Shandong and the two wings of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region have launched key attacks, using about 230,000 troops in the Shaanxi-Gansu Border Region.Huang Ziwen, Huang Zixiang, Guo Lisan, Guo Zhizheng, and Lan Zijing in Wuzi District discussed with me to launch guerrilla warfare behind enemy lines and bring an armed force to the border area.I reported the situation to Comrades Guo Jinting, secretary of the Chunyao County Party Committee, and Comrades Feng Zhengbao, the county magistrate, and went to Chishui County with Comrade Tian Zhijie to report to Comrades Lu Jianren and Ren Chengyu respectively, and also telegraphed Comrade Xi Zhongxun. On May 5, Huang Ziwen, Huang Zixiang, Mu Tianxiang and others led more than a hundred people to collect the guns from the Ma'e Township Office, and then went to the border area. After being organized as the first team of the Weibei Corps, they were active in Xiaoqiu, Bai, Cuo, and Wuzi Area area. On June 24, Huang Ziwen was killed in the encounter with the enemy's Sanyuan security team at Xiaodaokou.
