Chapter 16 Misty trap door

When we set off from Zhaojin, the sky was still blue and clear, with no clouds at all.Pass through a section of meandering mountain roads, and pass Hu'er Liang and Tuer Liang.It was blocked by a sudden and fierce blue-black stone cliff lying in front of him, and the sky dimmed instantly.The veins and cliffs may be connected, stretching eastward and southward along the dragon's ridge-like landform.But the strange thing is that there is an extremely narrow pass here.This pass is either natural or man-made, and it is a very dangerous place.On the other side of the pass, the sky and the mountains are chaotically connected together.Seen from a distance, there is a blur in front of the eyes, and the lead-black clouds seem to be heavily pressed on the hazy mountains.Precarious structures, aluminum-gray low-hanging clouds, and fuzzy distant mountains constitute a wonderful picture that can be called "the wild path is black with clouds".After a while, a strong wind suddenly blew up, and a torrential rain poured down.

This pass with unpredictable phenology is the secret gate.The small village on the other side of the pass, surrounded by mountains on three sides, is Anmen Village.And this secret gate has a deep historical connection with Shimen Pass.After Qin Zhidao crossed Qilichuan, he changed his original direction, pointed directly at Shimen Pass, and left a stretch of Sichuan road in the direction of Qilichuan.Only one direction of this Sichuan Road connects with Qin Zhidao, while the other three sides are surrounded by steep and steep mountains, forming a long and narrow hinterland that looks like a gourd.The hidden gate we are talking about is the narrow mountain pass in the northeast direction among the mountains facing three sides.According to historical records, the Ming Dynasty once "set up a photo inspection department and built a stone gate city".Shimenguan is the dangerous pass of Qin Zhidao and the traffic throat of the three provinces of Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia, so it has a very important strategic position.The Secret Gate Pass is a secret passage mechanism of Shimen Pass.It is the only natural moat passage connecting Yaozhou, Liulin and Zhaojin in the East.According to "Yaozhou Chronicle": "In the 32nd year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty (1553 A.D.), Zhang Huan, who participated in politics, ordered Li Tingbao, the magistrate of Yaozhou, to build a port city." Therefore, it is the only trading port from Yaozhou to the northwest.Secret Gate Pass is also often called "Shanmen Pass".According to historical records, sergeants of Fu Tang and Yao Qin once set up troops here to fight for supremacy; here once left the footprints of the emperors of the Sui Dynasty; this is also one of the main passages from Ninggu Station to Binkou in Song Dynasty; Fan Zhongyan once led the Song Army here The army and the people fought against Xixia Yuanhao's troops.In the Ming Dynasty, heavy troops were stationed here, and it became an important pass to resist foreign coveting Guanzhong and suppress peasant uprisings.Several peasant uprising armies in northern Shaanxi and Longdong were ambushed here by the Ming general Cao Wenzhi, and their strategic role became more and more obvious.

In June 1933, under the coercion of the wrong line, the Red Twenty-six Army failed to go south, and the revolutionary situation in the Jin revolutionary base area reached a low ebb.In August, three revolutionary armed forces, including the Red Fourth Regiment reorganized from Weibei guerrillas, the Anti-Japanese Volunteer Army reorganized from Wang Taiji Uprising troops, and the three detachments reorganized from Yaoxian guerrillas, arrived in Zhaojin one after another.On August 14, the Shaanxi-Gansu Border Special Committee held a joint meeting in Chenjiapi, Zhaojin, and decided to set up the Shaanxi-Gansu Border Temporary Headquarters of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army.mid-September.It was also a cloudy and rainy day, and the newly established temporary general headquarters of the Red Army on the Shaanxi-Gansu border used a hidden door to avoid a well-planned ambush by the He Gaohou Department of the Kuomintang.Our Shaanxi-Gansu Red Army guerrillas used Song Fei, an insider from the Zhanghong Town Militia in Xunyi, as an insider, disguised themselves as members of the enemy militia, and entered Zhanghong Town, the county seat of Xunyi without anyone knowing it. The false county magistrate and members of the enemy militia were still there In his sleep, he was captured by our army's heavenly soldiers and generals.At the same time, a large number of weapons, ammunition, cotton, cloth, and the seal of the pseudo-county chief were also seized.After receiving the bad news, the 17th Route Army of the Kuomintang hurriedly ordered its He Gaohou Department stationed in Tuqiao to chase and intercept.The cunning He Gaohou believes that our army has intercepted and carried a large amount of supplies, and if he wants to return to Zhaojin, he must approach the road.Therefore, he believed that the secret gate of the ancient Shimenguan road was the only way for our army to return to the Zhaojin base area, so he used a group of his subordinates to ambush in the Chuan Daoli of Anmen Village and the Anmenguan area.The commander-in-chief of the Red Army guerrillas, Wang Taiji, analyzed the situation and believed that the enemy must be in an ambush near the secret gate. Overcoming all kinds of hardships and dangers, shouldering the burden on his shoulders, he successfully transported all the supplies back, and led the troops back to the Zhaojin Soviet Area safely.And the enemy army crouching at the secret door was poured into a group of "soaked chickens" by the torrential rain in hunger and panic.

After the historical mist and wind and rain, the current secret gate has been planned and built as a part of Yao Xunbin Avenue, and it has undergone rapid changes.According to the pace of the times, Anmen Village has also accelerated the pace of building a new socialist countryside.After the rain has passed, the rows of clean and tidy cottages complement each other with the majestic Anmenguan, forming a series of beautiful landscapes, hidden in the verdant green of Anmenchuan Road. The gate looks more magnificent and majestic.
