Chapter 4 Chapter 3

"For the early liberation of Taiyuan, we will give you whatever you want!" Industry, agriculture, commerce, learning, all walks of life are contributing their strength to the liberation of Taiyuan.Armed militias were concentrated.The transportation team and the stretcher team were organized.The war wound medical team and the literature and art propaganda team were also established.More than 100,000 migrant workers who are preparing to directly participate in the war are already on standby.Millions of people serving the battle are busy raising food and grass, preparing equipment, rushing to make quilts, grinding rice and flour, repairing bridges and roads...

In order to better complete the heavy and complex logistical tasks and support the liberation of Taiyuan, the Taiyuan General Front Committee decided to establish the Taiyuan Campaign Joint Logistics Headquarters to organize and command the logistical support work of this campaign.Pei Lisheng, director of the Taihang District Administrative Office, served as the director, and Niu Yinguan, director of the Jinzhong District Administrative Office, served as the political commissar.There are relevant offices under it. After the establishment of the Taiyuan Campaign Joint Logistics Command, it immediately completed the numerous logistics support tasks in an orderly manner with a high degree of organizational skills.They conscientiously implemented the instructions of the General Front Committee, mobilized migrant workers to participate in the war, raised and transported food, fodder, fuel, ammunition and various equipment needed for combat, organized the construction of caves, repaired roads, set up warehouses, grain stations, non-staple food stations, firewood stations, and transfer stations. , ordnance depots, ammunition depots, warehousing, military depots, hospitals, etc., each piece has been very effective.

At that time, the environment and conditions faced were: poor people, long distances, inconvenient transportation, lack of means of transportation, and many units participating in the war... This brought great difficulties to the logistics support work.To organize such a complex and arduous work in an orderly manner, and ensure the supply of the front line without end, one can imagine how hard work, effort and sweat the unsung heroes on the logistics front have put in for this! In the Jinzhong area, almost all were dispatched.Men, women, old and young are all serving for the liberation of Taiyuan.Here, no matter day or night, regardless of rain or snow, every household is making military shoes, sewing military uniforms, grinding rice and flour for the troops, and making dry food.Countless migrant workers are repairing old roads, opening new roads, building bridges, and transporting grain, ammunition, and equipment for tackling difficulties.Many people are repairing houses and cave dwellings, preparing to live in for passing troops.Bridges, culverts, mountain passes, warehouses and other important traffic arteries and important targets are guarded and patrolled by militiamen.Trade unions, women's federations, student unions, and children's groups are all busy supporting the frontline operations.Those who planned to build a new house took out wood; those who were going to get married donated grain, oil and fat pigs;The vehicles and livestock transporting combat supplies are too busy, so people carry them on their shoulders.When the strong laborers went to the front line, subcontract farming was organized in the rear, and the old people, women and children were responsible for the task of spring sowing production.

On the South, North Tongpu and Zhengtai railways leading to Taiyuan, all locomotives and wagons were started.Railway employees braved the wind and snow to rush to repair stations, railways, bridges and culverts day and night, and transport a large amount of military supplies.Every day at every transfer station along the railway, thousands of migrant workers are loading and unloading vehicles in an assault... In Taihang District and Taiyue District, in Jinsui District and Chahar District, in Jizhong District, Jinan District, and the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region, hundreds of thousands of migrant workers bid farewell to their parents, wives and children, left their hometowns, and formed branch groups. The former company of migrant workers, eating the wind and drinking the dew, traveled both starry and night, marching on the rugged mountain road leading to Taiyuan.More migrant workers formed a transportation team, driving carts, leading donkeys, braving rain, snow and wind and dust, to deliver food, ammunition, fodder, quilts, oil and salt, vegetables and various materials and equipment for the troops.An ordnance equipment maintenance team composed of workers from Shijiazhuang, a battle-wounded medical team composed of Linfen medical staff, a pre-support service team composed of students from Jinzhong Yuci, and professional and amateur art groups from Changzhi, Huguan, and Xiangyuan The literary and art propaganda team also carried their bags and traveled thousands of miles to the front line of Taiyuan.

On the avenues and paths leading to Taiyuan, groups of people rushed forward one after another.The laughter of the people, the yelling of the handlebars, the neighing of the mules and horses, the horns of the cars, and the clang of the trains constitute a majestic and exciting symphony, echoing between the wilderness and the mountains and rivers.People forgot about hunger and fatigue, and forgot their heavy luggage, and they were all scrambling to move forward, as if they were stepping on hot wheels. This is the torrent of anger, this is the blazing fire.It wants to wash away the muddy water of the old world, and it wants to forge a bright future for the new China.Let us choose a few drops of water and sparks from the rapids and flames, and see how our people are contributing to the liberation of Taiyuan!

In Zhangzhuang, Wucheng County, southern Hebei, there was a migrant worker named Sun Shengtang.Three generations of his family's grandparents worked as cattle and horses for the landlords, but in the end they still had no room or a row of land.Since liberation, his family has divided the house and land, and lived a good life.During the Spring Festival of this year, Sun Shengtang married his wife.The whole family couldn't be happier.Shengtang's grandfather and father often told him that the good life was given by the Communist Party and Chairman Mao.If it weren't for the People's Liberation Army to conquer the world, there would be no way for the poor to survive!We can't heal the scar and forget the pain!Sun Shengtang's thinking is also very progressive.Whether it is participating in the militia, or farming for the martyrs; whether it is fighting in front of the army, or requisitioning food and grass, he walks ahead in everything.On this day, he heard from the village cadres that migrant workers would be transferred to Taiyuan, and he discussed it with his wife at night. The next day, he came to the temple at the head of the village and said to the village chief:

stretcher team transporting the wounded "For migrant workers in Taiyuan, count me in." Before the village chief could speak, a young man said, "Others can go, but you can't!" "Why?" "Is there even a need to ask?" The younger generation said, "Even if your grandfather and father agree, the new daughter-in-law who just passed the door will not agree!" Before everyone could laugh out loud, a crisp voice took over the conversation: "I agree, we have already discussed it!" Everyone saw that it was Shengtang's daughter-in-law Xiufang who was speaking.

Xiufang went on to say: "If women are needed to go to the front line, I will also sign up!" "Okay!" The village chief stood up and said happily, "Shengtang is a good man, and Xiufang is also a good man. They are a model couple, and everyone should learn from them!" The crowd burst into applause. The former migrant workers set off.Sun Shengtang carried a stretcher on his shoulder and walked in front of the team.The team entered the mountain, and the road was rough and rugged. They were sweaty when they walked, and cold when they stopped.The road is far away and the village is scarce, and there is no place to cook, so I eat cold corn bread to satisfy my hunger, and drink mountain spring water when I am thirsty.One day, when we walked to Meng County, it suddenly rained and snowed, and Sun Shengtang fell ill due to cold.During the day, he was groggy, his body fluctuated from hot to cold, and at night he coughed continuously, and his whole body was burned like coals.For several days in a row, even though he gritted his teeth and insisted on hiding it from everyone, he was still discovered by the village chief.

The village chief said to him, "You can't go any further. I'll find you a cart that goes along the way. You can go back!" Sun Shengtang shook his head, obstinately disagreeing. When the deputy county magistrate found out, he also came to persuade him to go back. He wrote him an official letter and handed it to him, saying, "This is a letter of proof. It says that you are returning due to illness, and you will go to the village to rest and receive treatment." Sun Shengtang stuffed the letter of proof into the hands of the deputy county magistrate again: "I won't go back no matter what."

The medical team from Zhengding County caught up with him and examined him. He was diagnosed with acute pneumonia and needed to be treated on the spot. After two days and two nights, Sun Shengtang's condition improved.He opened his eyes, looked out of the window, and heard the sound of cheering people and horses, sat up in a "bass", and wanted to put on his shoes and get off the ground.The nurse asked him what he was doing, and he rolled up his small luggage, slipped out the door quickly, and waved, "I'm going to the front line!" He took a car to find the county migrant worker's station, and saw that everyone was moving ammunition to the position, so he picked up a box and moved without saying a word.When the deputy county head and the village head found him, he laughed a few times and said, "I am strong. Once I work and sweat, I will be cured." Then, he got into the transport team in ranks.The deputy county magistrate shook his head and said approvingly:

"What a lump of iron, there's nothing we can do about him." Along the Zhengtai Railway, there is also a story about a mother and daughter in Shouyang County competing for military rations.My mother's in-laws family name is Duan, and her maiden name is Li. Because there is no literate person in the family, she never gave her a name.The husband was a former migrant worker in the Zhengtai Battle and died in the trenches.She has only one daughter named Huahua, who is only 15 years old this year.Although the government of the Liberated Area treated her family preferentially as martyrs and took care of all kinds of recruitment, the mother and daughter still did their best to support the younger soldiers in fighting.Make military shoes, grind military rations, and walk ahead in everything.When she heard that Taiyuan was going to be attacked, food, grass, and materials needed to be sent to the front, and that some female laborers would be mobilized, so my mother went to the director of the Women's Federation and asked to transport food to the troops.The director of the Women's Federation said that she was over 50 years old and the journey was far away, so she did not agree. She went to the village cadre again and said: "Fighting Taiyuan is our last battle in Shanxi. If you don't try your best, you will have no chance in the future. What are you afraid of when you are old? Taijun She is in command at the age of 100, and Mu Guiying is still leading the army at the age of 53." Going to war. I am not as good as them, and it is quite enough to carry dozens of catties of food." When Huahua heard about it, she also came to her and begged: "Let me go! Aren't Liu Hulan and Yin Lingzhi also in their teens? They did so many good things for us suffering people, and they all died in the end. The people of Taiyuan are still suffering, and the People's Liberation Army You have to eat food in war, and I have done a little bit of work by carrying dozens of catties on my back! Promise me, let me go!" The determination of the mother and daughter moved the village cadres, and everyone decided after research that they were two mothers and only one of them would go.Who will go is up to them to discuss. The mother and daughter returned home.The mother said: "Good boy, you are still young, your bones have not yet grown, and you are not as good as your mother's old legs and old arms. You have to go back and forth for more than 200 miles, and carry dozens of catties of grain. You can't stand it on the road. It's not that you are dragging others' backs. leg?" Huahua knew that she couldn't talk to her mother, so she agreed readily on the surface.Secretly, she was quietly preparing to leave behind her mother's back. On the morning of departure, Huahua was the first to arrive at the grain depot.Said to the accountant: "Uncle Suozi, weigh me 70 catties." The accountant smiled: "Huahua, the rule is 50 catties per person, how can your mother carry 70 catties?" "It's not on the back," Huahua explained: "My mother borrowed a little donkey from my grandma's house, and it was carried by a donkey." The accountant believed it.After the scale, Huahua filled more than half of it in one pocket, and poured the rest into another pocket.Then, hurriedly carried the big grain bag home, and said to her mother: "All the grain transporters are gathering at the south end of the village! Hurry up and go!" Mother took dry food, carried the food bag and walked to the south of the village.Huahua locked the door, went to the grain depot, carried the small grain bag on her back, walked around the north of the village, and rushed straight to the west road of the village. Not far from Huahua's mother, she ran into the director of the Women's Federation and asked her, "Where are you going?" She replied, "Gather at the south of the village." The director of the Women's Federation said: "No, we are gathering in the west of the village. Let's go!" The people who transported the grain gathered neatly, and the village cadre who led the team said a few words before setting off. The grain transportation team turned over a mountain ridge, and saw a child walking in front of him with half a sack of grain on his back.After a while, he caught up with her.When everyone saw it, it turned out to be Huahua.People surrounded the past at once. "Why did you run out alone first?" "I didn't ask your family to come alone, why are both mothers here?" "Look, are you tired?" As the saying goes, there is no light burden on a long road.Although Huahua's back only weighs more than 20 kilograms, she is a teenage girl after all.It was fine at the beginning, but the more I walked, the heavier I felt, the smaller my steps, and blisters on my feet.When the mother saw her daughter like this, she felt distressed and angry, and said: "You are too willful, why didn't you tell me in advance?" Huahua looked at her mother and everyone, pretended to be relaxed and said, "I'm not tired at all, I promise I won't let it go. If you don't believe me, let's compare!" The director of the Women's Federation asked her to share the food with everyone and go back to the village. "This is not possible." Huahua was in a hurry, "I have walked for dozens of miles, and I will be there in dozens of miles. I must persevere to the end!" The militiamen in the liberated areas also took up guns. My mother relented, so she went to intercede with the director of the Women's Federation: "This girl has a stubborn temper. She has gone so far, don't let her go back. Give me a little of her food, and let her recite the rest." "Auntie, don't add more. Let Huahua distribute some for me." A fit young girl said as she took Huahua's pocket and poured some into her own pocket. The women's food transport team continued to move forward.The mother and daughter walked in the lead, talking and laughing.The director of the Women's Federation looked at the backs of the mother and daughter, smiled and said to everyone: "Mother is like Mu Guiying, and daughter is like Yang Jinhua. Mother and daughter are heroes, really amazing!" Near the general warehouse of our army in the south of Yuci, there is a new tomb.There is a stone tablet in front of the tomb, which reads: "The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier who died to defend the Yuci General Warehouse".This unknown martyr was a handlebar drawn from various counties in Jinzhong to deliver grain.But where exactly he came from, and who was his last name, has not been found out.According to the memories of the comrades concerned, he seemed to be from Taigu or Qixian area based on his accent.In terms of appearance, he is of medium build, with whiskers on his wrinkled face.At first glance, he is a weather-beaten person, about 50 years old.Usually, I always like to hold a cigarette bag in my mouth. Even if I finish smoking, I don't want to pull it out of my mouth.In addition to feeding the animals every day, I just keep transporting things. As long as there is a task, no matter day or night, pick up the whip and leave.The car is parked at the station or warehouse, and it also helps to load and unload the car.Finding the pocket torn, he sewed it up.Seeing grain spilled on the ground, I swept it up with the broom carried in the car, cleaned it up and put it in my pocket.On rainy days, he helped to check whether the tarpaulin was covered. Sometimes rat holes were found, and they were blocked with stones and lime.He is usually reticent and rarely speaks loudly.In more than a month, I only spoke in a hurry twice.Once, after the leader praised him, he said: "It is our duty to do it honestly. It is our duty to rescue the poor people in Taiyuan as soon as possible, even if we risk our lives." What did I do?What is there to boast about? Once again, it was he who drove into the warehouse and saw a young militiaman dozing off on duty in the warehouse, and said a few words to the militiaman. The militiaman didn't want to listen, so he yelled: "You young man, why are you so stupid?" sleepy?There are so many things in the warehouse, and it is so close to Taiyuan, maybe Yan Xishan sent spies to make troubles and suffer losses, can you afford it? "People know from his few words that his wife suffered from postpartum wind early and died. A son was dragged by Yan Xishan and captured in Linfen to serve as a soldier. He was beaten to death while escaping. A daughter was killed by "Tie Jun" Jigan” hanged himself after being gang-raped. Now, he is alone. He often cannot sleep at night, sitting alone on the kang, facing Taiyuan City, staring with angry eyes. Once, he dragged a PLA The hand of the cadre said: "Hurry up and take Taiyuan, grab Yan Xishan, let me dig out his heart, and avenge the poor! ..." On this day, as usual, the handleman pulled two more trips than others.When the lights were on, on the way back, there were four ghostly guys who wanted to take his car.He said angrily: "I can't see the things being pulled on the car, can people sit on it?" The four walked away uninterestedly.However, he raised his vigilance and saw those guys muttering something when he turned around.He wanted to listen, but at first he couldn't hear clearly, and then he only heard one sentence: "Quick,... dinner is now, let's start..." He raised his whip and yelled at the animals, speeding up.After a while, the carriage arrived at the door of the warehouse.He whispered to the militiaman on duty: "I met a few unscrupulous people on the road. What they said meant that they were going to make a fool of themselves, so be careful." "where are they?" "It's in the back. I'll unload the car first, you must pay attention." After the handlebars finished speaking, they hurriedly drove the car into the warehouse. He unloaded the car, didn't go to eat, and came to the door again.The militiaman on duty told him that no one had come.He was surprised, so he walked along the wall to the grain stack. Suddenly, he found a black shadow coming over the wall.He quickly rushed over with his cat on his back.By the light in the distance, he saw that it was one of the four people he met on the road just now.Just as he was about to pounce, another guy flashed out from behind him and wrapped his arms around his neck.He slammed it violently, knocking the man to the ground.Then, aiming at the head is a kick, kicking the bad guy unconscious.He shouted: "Quick, catch the spy!" Before he could yell a second time, another one turned over from the wall and stabbed at him with a dagger in his hand.He dodged and dodged.He yelled again: "There are spies, come here!" At this moment, the dagger pierced his chest.Struggling, he threw himself forward, strangled the guy's neck, and bit his face fiercely.The guy howled, and the two fell down together. The first spy who jumped over the wall was lighting high explosives by the grain pile.At this time, militiamen and migrant workers rushed to the scene after hearing the sound.Surrounded and arrested these bad guys.Another militiaman rushed forward and cut the fuse, avoiding a major loss. When people lifted the old handlebars from the pool of blood, he only said one sentence intermittently: "Protect the food,...support...support the People's Liberation Army...fight Taiyuan..." After interrogation of the secret agents, it was found that they were originally members of the "Enemy Rear Work Team" organized by Yan Bandit, who came to harass our army's rear and spy on our army's intelligence. The comrades buried this old hero who did not leave his name with a simple and solemn ceremony.In front of his tomb, put a bouquet of winter jasmine.People meditated: "Unsung hero! You worked tirelessly for the early liberation of Taiyuan. You gave your life for the victory on the front line. You will live in our hearts forever. Your deeds will last forever with the victory of liberating Taiyuan !" How many people like Sun Shengtang, a migrant worker in Wucheng County, the mother and daughter in Shouyang County, and this unknown handlebar, they can't say amazing rhetoric, and they can't express moving feelings with passionate tones .With simple and powerful actions, they gave everything for the liberation of Taiyuan, and for the victory of the war, they made the greatest self-sacrifice. Sun Tzu said: "Know the enemy and know yourself, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles." During the battle of Taiyuan, our underground workers relied on Sun Walker's ability to get into the belly of Princess Iron Fan, and cleverly obtained a large amount of military information from Yan Bandits, which contributed to the victory of the entire battle. made a contribution.Here, we are talking about the most important action among them. One evening in the autumn of 1948, Zhang Quanxi, the manager of Qianyixin Bicycle Shop in Fuxi Street, Taiyuan City, was sorting out his things and preparing to close the stall.Suddenly, a middle-aged man dressed as a farmer came in.This person had a white towel covering his head and a half-worn black belt around his waist. As soon as he entered the door, he said to Zhang Quanxi: "Manager, I have an off-brand bicycle with three broken spokes, can you please fix it?" When Zhang Quanxi heard that it was the prescribed contact code, he immediately replied: "You're welcome, you're welcome." "Thank you then." "You're welcome, you're welcome!" Zhang Quanxi stepped over and held the opponent's hand tightly: "Are you Comrade Li?" After speaking, he pulled the man into the back room and closed the door. Old Li whispered to him: "The comrade in charge of 909 sent me to give you a task: Comrades Qiao Ya and Liu Xin were betrayed by traitors and sacrificed. The city defense map fell into the hands of the enemy. Our troops will soon Siege, I want you to get a more detailed city defense map as soon as possible." It turned out that in order to prepare for the siege and accurately find out the fortifications and fortifications inside and outside Taiyuan City, the comrades in charge of the Xiaochang Village Intelligence Station under the Intelligence Department of our Taihang Military Region instructed the Communists who were ambushing in Taiyuan Jinshan Middle School Comrade Qiao Ya, try to draw a map of Yan Xishan's city defense. Comrade Qiao Ya started working secretly after accepting the task.In August 1947, he was arrested by Yan Xishan's special police headquarters for leading the student movement in his school.Later, my underground organization rescued him from prison through various relationships, but the enemy is still secretly monitoring him.Comrade Qiao Ya had already discovered these, but in order to complete this important task, he still united with the progressive young students Liu Xin and others in the school, and took advantage of the opportunity of being captured by the enemy to build fortifications to accumulate information bit by bit.Digging fortifications during the day and drawing maps at night.After nearly half a year of hard work, a set of city defense diagrams was finally drawn.It recorded Yan Xishan's main castles, trenches, artillery deployment, etc. one by one.Since the enemy kept a close eye on him, he sent a student to salvage him in the shape of a small merchant to complete the delivery task.Unexpectedly, the student was arrested halfway, and the city defense map fell into the hands of the enemy.The student couldn't stand the coercion and temptation, and betrayed Qiao Ya and Comrade Liu Xin.They were arrested that night and killed on the third day. The 909 head of the Xiaochang Village Intelligence Station learned of this situation, after careful consideration, he decided to hand over this task to Comrade Zhang Quanxi, a veteran underground worker. Zhang Quanxi sent Comrade Lao Li away, and came back to ponder over the way to complete the task.He thought that if he wanted to know the deployment and fortification of the enemy's entire city defense, it would be difficult to complete it for a while if he collected it by himself.Even if it is done, it will not be comprehensive.It is best to find someone who understands the city defense situation from within the enemy.After thinking about it, he thought of a Yan Bandit officer he had befriended last spring. That day, Zhang Quanxi was doing a full lap for a customer, when a Yan bandit officer pushed a bicycle, came to the door of the garage, and said to Zhang Quanxi, "The front tire is flat, please fill it up." Zhang Quanxi let him into the back room to sit down, made him a cup of tea, and asked him to wait for a while. After a while, Zhang Quanxi handed over the repaired bicycle to him.He wanted to pay, but Zhang Quanxi didn't accept it. Ten days later, the Yan bandit officer pushed the cart to Qian Yixin's car shop again.Said the bike was riding heavy and asked him to scrub it. Zhang Quanxi asked him to put it down and pick it up in 3 days. Zhang Quanxi scrubbed it for him, and sent the car to another shop for painting.When the Yan bandit officer came to pick it up, he was very happy to see that the car had changed drastically.They wanted to pay, but Zhang Quanxi didn't accept it. After several contacts, Zhang Quanxi left a very good impression on the Yan bandit officer.He patted Zhang Quanxi on the shoulder, saying that Manager Zhang is generous and loyal. Afterwards, Zhang Quanxi made many inquiries and learned that the Yan bandit officer's surname was Huang, and he was Yan Xishan's attendant and staff officer.He grew up in a poor family. In the early years of the Republic of China, he worked as an apprentice in the Taiyuan craft practice factory.Later, the army who took refuge in Yan Xishan became a soldier.Served as squad leader, platoon leader, company commander, battalion commander, regiment commander and division chief of staff.During the War of Liberation, he was dismissed several times by Yan Xishan because he was not firm in carrying out orders.Up to now, there is only one idle position with a job but no authority-servant and staff officer. Zhang Quanxi also learned that this old military officer who came from a poor family and made a fortune halfway through had a certain sense of justice.When the Japanese invaders surrendered, he had hoped for the country's independence, prosperity and personal future.However, when he returned to Taiyuan with Yan Xishan, what he saw and heard was quite different from what he had imagined.The commander of the Japanese army ascended the field, still riding a horse and saber, showing off his power in Taiyuan City.Japanese soldiers, refusing to surrender their guns, are still burning, killing, looting, and raping women.The pseudo-governor and traitor Su Tiren blatantly came in and out of Yan Xishan's house.The traitors Yang Cheng and Zhao Rui were actually promoted to commanders of the Shanxi Provincial Defense Force.The reactionary leaders Wang Jingguo, Liang Huazhi, Yang Zhenji, Zhao Chengshou, etc., each stood on the top of the mountain, fought openly and secretly, searched and extorted, and made a fortune.These ruthless facts made this staff officer Huang gradually feel dissatisfied.The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his good wishes in the past could not be realized at all.In addition, in recent years, Yan Xishan has been continuously ostracized and hit, and there are many practical difficulties in the economy.Since then, he has been depressed and depressed, like a monk hitting the clock for a day.When he was in pain, he also thought about his own way out, or he could use his current power to earn some extra money, abandon the army to do business, and maintain his future life.Or go to other provinces, take refuge in the old relationship, and break away from Yan Xishan's control. After Zhang Quanxi learned about these situations, he received Staff Officer Huang even more enthusiastically.He started with the economy and often followed suit.Sometimes, I would buy some better daily necessities such as fountain pens, stamps, and lighters from someone in Beijing and give them to him.During the holidays, bring many food gifts and send them to him.Sometimes give him some cash.When he was in a bad mood, Zhang Quanxi accompanied him to the tavern, chatted and drank his worries.As time goes by, they get closer and closer to each other.The whole family of Staff Officer Huang are very grateful to Zhang Quanxi. In this way, Zhang Quanxi used ingenious activities to communicate with this attendant and staff officer, and it has been maintained until now, without revealing his identity as an underground worker at all. Zhang Quanxi analyzed the situation and various aspects of the Huang staff officer, and decided to use him to complete the task of drawing the city defense map. One night, Zhang Quanxi brought a horseshoe watch bought from Beijing to Huang's house.Staff Officer Huang was leaning over the table and writing.Seeing Zhang Quanxi coming in, he quickly gave up his seat and went to make tea again. Zhang Quanxi approached the table and saw that Staff Officer Huang was writing a letter to Tianjin Garrison Commander Chen Changjie.In the past few days, Staff Officer Huang's mood was very bad, and his dissatisfaction with Yan Xishan was growing.They were surrounded by Yan Xishan's cronies and minions, and Liang Huazhi's special police headquarters was very strict, so no one dared to discuss privately with each other.Once found, either beheaded or imprisoned.Staff Officer Huang had long wanted to vent his anger towards Yan Xishan to Chen Changjie, and wanted to write a letter, but he didn't dare to post it publicly.Recently he heard that one of his junior officers was going to fly through Tianjin and transfer to a certain place in the south for recuperation due to blindness, so he hurriedly wrote a long letter and asked the officer to forward it to Chen Changjie when he passed Tianjin. The general meaning of the letter is that at present, Yan Xishan's territory in Shanxi is shrinking day by day, and the military and political units and important officials in the whole province have all withdrawn and lived in a small area around Taiyuan City.In and out of the city, the price of goods is soaring, and it changes every day.Food, fodder and military pay were completely cut off, and only a few planes were air-dropped every day to provide assistance, but most of the air-dropped supplies fell into the hands of the People's Liberation Army, and there was little income in the city.It's a drop in the bucket, and it's really hard to support it for a long time.The city of Taiyuan was in chaos, with disputes over meals every day.Most soldiers became night blind due to malnutrition.Speculation, corruption and fraud have flooded various military and government agencies.The ancients said: "Those who lose their people perish", this is entirely their own fault.If this continues, the future is hard to predict.For this reason, I want to leave this place and go to "Junzuo" to work there, please "Junzuo" try to arrange it... Staff Officer Huang came over with tea, seeing Zhang Quanxi reading his letter, he was so frightened that his heart beat wildly.His face was very unnatural.He said incoherently: "I'm in a bad mood recently, just write a letter casually and think of something..." Zhang Quanxi was secretly happy.Because of this, he caught Staff Officer Huang's handle.But he still expressed sympathy for what happened to Staff Officer Huang, saying: "Don't be too hasty. Patience is also good. In fact, all crows in the world are black. Tianjin may not be much better than here. Do you dare to conclude that Tianjin is better than Taiyuan? I advise you to wait and see. When you have to go, there will naturally be a way to go.” After listening to the advice, Staff Officer Huang couldn't help nodding his head to express his gratitude, but he was still sweating, for fear that Zhang Quanxi would reveal it to him. Zhang Quanxi said frankly to him: "Please rest assured, I will never spread this matter to you." After hearing this, Staff Officer Huang felt relieved.But he didn't think carefully about the true meaning of Zhang Quanxi's words.Later, I continued to write the letter and asked someone to take it away. Zhang Quanxi grasped the handle of Staff Officer Huang, and his future contacts were no longer limited to economics.The content of each other's conversations has become more and more political. Once, Zhang Quanxi tentatively asked: "Staff Huang, I heard people say that the city is not as good as the countryside, and the countryside is not as good as the mountains. Have you ever been to the mountains?" Staff Officer Huang asked: "Which mountain did you say?" Zhang Quanxi said: "For example, areas like Liao County (now Zuoquan County) and Xiyang." Staff Officer Huang repeatedly waved his hands and said, "Those places are all territory of the Eighth Route Army. How can I go? I haven't been there." After finishing speaking, he paused for a while, and then said with emotion: "However, let me see, these days, the city is really not as good as the valley. At least it doesn't suffer from so many useless attitudes." When the two chatted up to this point, Zhang Quanxi got to know him further, took the opportunity to describe the scenery in the mountains to him, and left. One night after half a month, Zhang Quanxi went to chat with Staff Officer Huang again.While chatting, the conversation turned to the topic, he said: "Officer Huang, to be honest, I have been to the Taihang Mountains in the past, and I know a few people from the People's Liberation Army. Now I think, if we can get in touch with the People's Liberation Army, if we can't stay in the city in the future, we can make another plan." Plan. Tell me, what is my idea?" After hearing this, Staff Officer Huang didn't express his opinion immediately.After a short pause, he began to question Zhang Quanxi's identity and history. After all, Zhang Quanxi is an old underground worker.He strictly abides by the party's underground work principles, and did not reveal his identity as an underground party member at all.Just answered ambiguously: "My hometown lives in Xiaochang Village, Taigu. I moved to Taiyuan 5 years ago and set up this Qianyixin car shop. When I was in my hometown, I once covered two underground workers of the Eighth Route Army. They are also considered I know, there is a little connection." Staff Officer Huang asked, "Is there still contact?" Zhang Quanxi said: "When I was in my hometown, they often came to see me. Now that I am in the province, I have fewer opportunities to meet them." Staff Officer Huang hummed in response, but his attitude was still unclear.According to Zhang Quanxi's analysis, the reason why he is still hesitant is that he still does not fully understand the specific policies of our party and our army.Furthermore, it was because he always thought that the only way out was to seek refuge with his old superior, Chen Changjie.Therefore, Zhang Quanxi talked with him here, and broke up without further talking. In November 1948, Tianjin was liberated, and the enemy garrison commander Chen Changjie was captured alive by our army. Zhang Quanxi was secretly happy when she learned about it.That night, he brought this news to Staff Officer Huang.As soon as he entered the door, he saw Staff Officer Huang sitting there alone, frowning and preoccupied.It seemed that he had already learned that Chen Changjie had been captured alive. Seeing that this is a good opportunity, Zhang Quanxi said: "Officer Huang, the situation is developing very fast, and some of them can't be estimated at all. It seems that going to Tianjin will not work. Let's plan another way!" Staff Officer Huang was in a bad mood, and replied, "Is there any better way out! If it doesn't work out, Taiyuan City will be destroyed, and I will follow Chen Changjie's path." Zhang Quanxi analyzed the difference between him and Yan Xishan's cronies and minions, and affirmed his patriotism and sense of justice.He pointed out that as long as they are willing to stand with the people and never do anything harmful to the people, the people will let the past go.The People's Liberation Army will also sincerely welcome it. Zhang Quanxi said so and so, and it really worked.Staff Officer Huang pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Manager Zhang, in your opinion, can I join the People's Liberation Army in my current condition?" Zhang Quanxi said: "Let me tell you, what's wrong with that? If you are sincere, I can help. There are underground workers of the People's Liberation Army in our village. I will contact them." Zhang Quanxi said while paying attention to the expression of Staff Officer Huang.Seeing that he was not disgusted, he went on to say tentatively: "If you really want to go this way, you have to make up your mind quickly. Besides, you can't just go like this. It's best to do some work before you go." Staff Officer Huang listened to what Zhang Quanxi said was reasonable, and kept nodding.Finally, he let out a long breath and said: "In the past, I was the chief of staff of the 'Personal Trainer'. At that time, it was possible to capture Yan Xishan alive. What can be done?" After hearing what he said, Zhang Quanxi deliberately paced up and down on the ground, muttering: "Since we want to do something, we must do something decent. What is the most useful thing for the People's Liberation Army?..." He thought for a moment, stopped, and gave an idea to Staff Officer Huang, saying: "Do you think this will work? The People's Liberation Army will soon attack the city. You can use your status as a staff officer to inspect various frontier positions, learn about the deployment of city defenses and fortifications, and provide some information for them to attack the city. The People's Liberation Army It must be very welcome." Due to the situation, Tianjin could not get through, and Taiyuan could not stay. If you want to defect to the People's Liberation Army, it is safe to make meritorious deeds and atone for your crimes.Staff Officer Huang agreed.The two studied it in detail and decided to make a map of Yan Xishan's city defense and provide the PLA with important military information in time. On this day, Staff Officer Huang invited Zhang Quanxi to his home, took out a set of officer uniforms, and put them on for Zhang Quanxi.The job title of "staff assistant" was clarified for him, and the two of them took a military jeep together and began to conduct "inspections" at various forward positions. They first went to the east of the city, then to the south of the city, and then to the west of Fen, carefully inspecting one by one, keeping each item firmly in their hearts.It took them half a month to travel all over the frontier positions.They went to "inspect" during the day, and plotted the collected fortifications, artillery positions, main deployments, and firearms equipment on the map one by one at night. In order to further obtain Yan Xishan's battle plan for city defense, they asked the garrison troops for various combat-related materials in the name of "verifying and correcting the battle map".哪个地方是主要防御方向,哪个地方是次要防御方向,哪个地方组织了几层火力,哪个地方为扼守的要点,哪个地方兵力较弱,哪个地方是结合部,哪个地方是炮兵的火制区等等,都明确地标在了他们自制的城防图上。 经过他们的合作和努力,11张城防图绘制成功了。 11张图,卷起来一大卷,叠起来一大摞,目标很大,难以隐藏。如何把它送出城去,成了一大难题。 黄参谋在积极想办法,张全禧更是急得每天睡不着觉。要是送不出去,或者被敌人查获,前功尽弃,人头落地,都是小事。更重要的是不能给我军提供情报,会给部队攻城造成极大的困难和伤亡。他记取了乔亚和刘鑫同志的教训,和黄参谋商定了送图的任务,一定要由他亲自来完成。 想来想去,他们终于在修自行车工人张宪明同志的协助下,想出了一条办法。他们把一辆半新半旧的自行车拆开,从车梁的焊接处锯断,在每个管子里都塞进三张城防图。又将前后车轮的内胎也割开,各放进一张城防图。然后,又照原样把车梁焊接住,把内胎补好,打上气,一点痕迹也不露。就是敌人检查再细,也检查不出来了。 第二天,天刚刚发亮,张全禧就打点好行李,等着黄参谋。 8点多钟时,黄参谋开着吉普车来了。谦益信车铺的几位工人,把那辆自行车捆到吉普车后边。黄参谋将开好的几封信,交给张全禧。两个人一同坐进吉普车里,便朝大南门开去了。 黄参谋很顺利地把张全禧送出了大南门。在一个隐蔽的地方,他们停下来。张全禧从车后将自行车解下,便向黄参谋告辞,推着车子向杨家堡走去。 近来,太原城内外防守更加严密,城内不允许任何人随便出入。即便是军人,也需经太原市警备区批准。但在杨家堡一线的前沿阵地上,负责防守的亲训师第三团团长原是黄参谋的老部下。他见到张全禧递给他的信,得知是黄参谋的“卫士”要到太谷去安顿家眷,便毫不为难地笑脸放行了。 张全禧推着那辆自行车,顺利地越过敌人的封锁线,安全到达了“九○九”情报站。 城防图很快由一九三师,转到了太原前线总前委指挥部。它的及时到来,为太原总前委指挥部制定攻城作战方案,提供了非常重要的情报。
